REPUBLICANS SORE
Hoboken Members of the C. O.
P. in DisgruntIed frame
of Mind.

Hoboken Republicans-tha is the few
who still adhere to the machine, are
wondering how they are going to patel
up their broken ranks when the cam
paign opens this fall. As matter of
fact a great deal of patching will be nee
essary, and there are grave doubts as
to whether there will be any ranks to
patch taall.
Hardly a Republican can be found who
is not sore clean through. They are tired
of the gold brick tactics carried on by
the machine leaders.
Alexander Rabb, until recently one CT
the most faithful in the fold, and Il for
mer member of the Republican County
Committee from Hoboken, said to re-
porter for The News last might
| am simply tired of this gold brick
business, and I'll tell you hight here thlt
something is going to happen this fall
sure. You can count upon an indepel-
dent Republican ticket throughout the
county, and Hoboken viii be strongly
represented among its supporters.
Mr.. Robb was candidate for Assem-
bly, on the Republican ticket two years
ago.

STOLE GRAVE FLOWERS.
Homeless Man Gets Six Months

Act.

Henry Burton. who said he had no.
home, was found stealing flowers from
graves in the New York Bay Cemetery

lands attention was called to the van-
dal's act, and he arrested Burton. John

a complaining witness against Burton. A
great big bunch of beautiful flowers,
some of which were cut flowers placed in
.receptacles by loving friends, were ex-
hibited in the Second Criminal Court as
having been found in Burton's posses
sion
.'You are the meanest thief that ever
came before me-" said Justice Murphy.

drunk at the time and didn't know what
he was doing.

BACH AS A CHURCH WRITER

In Bach's Passion Music there is a
most effective and original sacred aria
entitled Bleeding Heart" which was
sung by Miss Jessie Parker at the morn
ing service at the Park Reformed Church
yesterday. The theme. which runs
through the entire composition, is most
ingeniously reproduced in different keys
in the acocmpaninent
The sacred music of the great John
Sebastian Bach is marked by deep re-
ligions sentiment and is in constant use
in the churches of Germany. Unlike
Handel, who travelled in Italy and lived
for years in England Bach always re-
mained in Germany. and Leipsic and
Eisenach are the towns most closely
identified with his name and career.
Bachs music. however, seems anti
quated to us now, and can only be really
enjoyed by those who have made it Il
study To the average listener of today
it seems lacking in salient melody.
