Just before election day has been feature

a few days rest after strenuous stump

Judge Parker hasn't made himself
known to the American people IN O way to
get their confidence said Gen. Grosvenor
1.-THE people want to know the man they are
voting for. They want to know VINO ne

advantage Of being well acquainted with

know he Is an aggressive American, while

ing to take train to Kingston for church.

caught sight Of Judge Parker. and with
loud unconservative yells they piled out OF
the cars and overwh elmed the candidate.
So eager was the rush to shake his hands
that he was pulled this way and that,
while Mrs. Parker watched anxiously from
the waiting room, fea rful least the New
Enplanders seize the Judges clothing for
souvenirs. The officers Of the regiment

themselves INDUCED in handshaking with
Judge Parker. he was interested to hear
first hand stories OF the sham battle:
The trainload Of soldiers reached Kings
ton at II A. NJ. and all the boys made a rnsh
for the West Shore dining room. The
supplies of fruit and crullers were swept
away in a flash. Then the soldiers grabbed
silver pitchers OF milk and took them out
