Deputy Game Warden George M.
Church for false arrest. Ziegler was
accused of allowing his hounds to run
at large. The warrant was issued by
Justice of the Peace H. E. Pickers-
gill, of Perth Amboy. In filling in
the printed form of warrant the JUS
tice inserted township of Mad
ison after the reference tos the
location of his office. Ziegler noticed
the mistake when he was arraigned
before the Justice. The name of the
township was changed and later the
complaint was discharged because it
had been brought under the law of
1901, which had been repealed. Zieg-
ler's suit is ON in the New Brunswick
District Court. He is represented by
Ex-senator Theo lore Strong. Church
claims that the error was purely cleri-
cal and he will not have counsel at

WANT Mr..
SKULL TO REMAIN.
Send Petition to Board of Education Askno that he be Kot
Perth Am6oyhree Letters from PIRATE Citizens Also Re-
cejVed Wanting him to Remain

The recent announcement of Super-
intendent Shull's request that he be
released by the Board of Education,
has created considerable stir among
the school teachers and citizens alike.
President Walker said this morning
that he had received three letters from
prominent citizens and a long petition
signed by all the teachers requesting
the board to keep Mr.. Shull here.
These will be read at the regular
meeting of the Board next Tuesday
night, when it is expected that definite
action will be taken whereby Mr..
Shull will be asked to continue under
more favorable financial conditions to
him.
President Walker said this morning
that when Superintendent ShulI made
his request at the special meeting last
Tuesday night the board was not only
surprised, but they were entirely nm
able to see their way clear to get an
other man that would come anywhere
near filling Superintendent ShuII's
place, for that reason they had to re-
fuse to entertain his request. He also
said that the letters and petitions paid
the highest compliments to Mr.. Shull
both personally and as superintendent
of the schools and with these the
board will feel that it is backed by
the public in not only the action they
have already taken, but the favorable
action in advancing his salary at the
next regular meeting. Mr.. Walker
would not say whether the advance
would equal the amount, So, 500, which
Superintendent Shull says he has been
offered elsewhere, as that remains en-
tirely at the discression of the board.
