MURPHY FOR MAYOR.
Sixth Ward Democrats En-
dorse the Police Justice for
the city's Chief Ex-
ecutive.

Police Judge James j. Murphy, who
has already been endorsed for the Demo
cratic nomination for Mayor of Jersey
City by the Junction Club, an organiza
tion representing several wards in the
southern section Of the city, last night
received the unanimous endorsement of
the Sixth Ward Democratic Club.
The meeting. which was held at Sell
heimer's Hall, Bramhall avenue and Hal
liday street, was one of the most largely
attended in the history of the organiza
ton. In the absence of the President
Executive Committeeman John J. Nor
ris was chosen to preside, and r. J. yree-
land acted as secretary.
A short discussion on the advisa ability
of making the club permanent orsaniEa-
tion, with a headquarters. was followed
by motion declaring such a course ILL
advised.
o. H. Wittpen, in lengthy address
eulogistic of Judge Murphy. placed his
name in nomination for endorsement as
the choice of the club for Mayor. Amid
much enthusiasm the resolution was
adopted by unanimous. vote, and copies
of the same ordered forwarded to City
Collector Robert Davis and. the Demo-
cratic executive committee.
In the event of Judge Murphy's NOM
ination it is evident that he will have
no more ardent supporters~for the chair
now occupied by Mayor Pagan than the
Democrats of the Sixth Ward.

THE FEAR OF RUhABUG.
Prevents Mapy People FROM Trins
a Coed Medicine.

Stomach troubles are so common and
in most cases so obstinate to cure that
people are apt tc leok with suspicion en-
any remedy claiming to be radical. per-
manent cure fer dyspepsia and indiges-
tien. Many such pride themselves on
their acuteness in never being hum
bugged, especially in medicines.
This fear of being hunibugged can be
carried too far. SO far, in fact, that many
people suffer for years with weak diges-
ton rather than risk little time. and
money in faithfully testing the claims
made of a preparation so reliable and
universally used as Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly disrent in one important respsc
from ordinary proprietary medicines for
the reason that they are not sscret
patent nedicine, no, secret is made Of
their Ingredients, bdt analysis shows
them TO contain the natural digestive fer
ments, pure aseptic pepsin, the digestive
acids, Golden Scaa, Rismuth, hydrastis
and nux. They are net cashartlc,
neither do they act powerfully on any
organ, but thay cure indigestion on the
common sense plan Of digestiAg the food
eaten thoroughly before it has time to
fsrfaent, sour and cause the mischief.
This is the onl5 secret 6f their success.

GERS Elected.

That the Dennis Mclaughlin Associa-
ton are going to whoop up things in the
Horseshoe next summer was evident
from the increased enthusiasm displayed
at the regular meeting of the Association
held last night. The attendance was
even larger than that of any meeting
this winter, and the prevailing spirit was
that the McLaughlins were on the road
to the most brilliant period of their his
tory.
Will it be an outing or picnic next
summer? This was one Of the questions
discussed last night. Many of the mem
bers are in favor of an outing-a good,
big, whooping outing. These members
fare confident that the association is now
fully strong enough to held one Of the
real sort and they intende to push thei
outing boom along.

In the First District Court yesterday
Frederick Werner sued Frank Kiesse-
wetter for $500 damages, fer loss of
time and payment Of physicians fees, as
the result Of beating he got from
Judge Erwin. who sat for Judge Grouse,
and jury. The jury rendered verdict
in favor of the plaintiff fot $50.
Both plaintiff and defendant are well
known citizens of Secaucus. The as
sauit occurred on January 10 last. At
a bill given by the Good Government
Club of Secaucus some time ago, Kiesse-
wetter overheard Werner speak ill of him
and his father. On the evening of Jan
uary 10 Kiessewetter was playing a
championship game of pool in a Secaucus
saloon when Werner entered the place.
It was after midnight.
As soon as Kiessewetter saw Werner
he dropped his cue and went over to
Werner and asked him what he meant
by his insulting remarks at the Good
Government Clubs ball. A fight ensued
and the combatants were parted by
friends Of both. Werner left the saloon
and Kiessewetter followed him out into
the street and continued the assault.
Werner was badly done up and for sew
eral weeks was not able to attend to
business.
