Shoot Indians and Wild
Beasts.

AS SOON AS HE SAW MONT

CAPTURED BY POLICE.

Two boys, Simeon Copeland. fourteen
years old, and George Winding, twelve
years old. of Nos. 3S9 and s97 Fifth
avenue, Brooklyn, respectively, were
seen last night in and out of stores in
lower Montgomery street, carrying
large package from which several rides
protruded. Patrolman John Dundon and
Matthew Hayes ascertained that they
were trying to sell the rifles. They took
the two boys to the Gregory street sta
ton, where they were closely questioned
By Police Captain Cody. Copeland I'm
ally admitted that he had stolen $40
from his fathers trunk and that he and
Winding and another boy named Bowen
had come over to Jersey to shoot In
dians and wild beasts in the Glendale
woods. Young Copeland said he had
read or heard that not only were wild
beasts but Indians to be found in the
Glendale forest" There is an animal
farm in Glendale woods 1t has been
there for some time. Frequent stories of
the animal farm have appeared in the
New York and Brooklyn papers. The
boys evidently got the impression that
the wild animals were running around
loose. instead of being confined in cages
in stockade The three boys arrived
in this city by way of Brooklyn annex
boat at 8 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
When young Bowen found that he land
ed in city instead of the wild and
woolly West he borrowed ten cents
from Copeland, the promoter of the expe-
.dition, and beat it back for home on the
next annex boat.
BY o'clock last night they decided
that home was a better place than the
wild Jersey forest" and young Copeland
realized that he would have to make good
the money he had taken from his fathers
trunk. So it was decided to try and sell
the expeditions outfit, and this was what
Copeland and Winding were trying to do
when Patrolmen Dundon and Hayes es-
pied them.
Capt. Cody was soon in cOmmuniea-
ton with the Brooklyn police and a
Brooklyn detective, accompanied by the
parents of the two boys. lost 40 time in
coming to Jersey City. The boys refused
to say whether they reached the Glendale
woods. They were taken home by their
parents, Young Copeland still had
S126.oT in his possession. He said he
did not know just what amount he took
from his fathers trunk. He said he Just
put his hand in the trunk and pulled out
bunch of bills"

MERELY
MENTIONED

The meeting arranged for last night
by the managers of John J. Heayey's
candidacy for the Democratic nomination
for Sheriff did not take place. Mr.. Hea-
vey concluded that he was entitled to a
rest and he went into the country where
he win remain until Monday. WHY there
should be any doubt as to Mr.. Heavey's
attitude regarding the Democratic party
is strange, 10 view Of his STATEMENTS
during the canvass. Repeatedly he de-
clared that he was loyal and consistent
Democrat and that he would abide BY,
the decision of the Democratic voters at
the primaries. Mr. Heavey owes it to
himself and to the loyal friends who
stood by him to break away from Simp-
son and Mcbride, whose purppse is to
wreck the Democratic party if possible,
and to give his support to his successful
rival, Mr. Seymour.

CANADIANS HELD DOWN TO
-FOUR HITs-sKEETERs sCoR-
ED SEVEN RUNS IN ONE IN
MING.


The Skeeters got up on their hind legs
yesterday and deyoured the Toronto men.
1t was sweet revenge for having been
licked by the tail-enders so badly the day
before. They seemed bent on showing
the Canadians what they were up
against. They had on their batting togs
and hammered Mcpherson all over the
for fifteen runs On the other hand
Clarkson was in superb form aud held
the Canadians down to four hits, while
he struck out nine men. Five errors
We're recorded against the Skeeters,
while the Toronto men scored but two.
Had Clarkson been properly supported
ia the field he would have shut the To-
ronto men out. 1t was the manner in
which the Skeeters welded the willow
that piled up the fifteen runs. With a
lone tally made in the sixth inning, Ma
goon in the eighth reached first on Mer-
ritt's error, but was forced at second by
Rapp's rap TO Pattee. Hauser hit to
Woods, who threw the ball from third
base into the bleachers and both base
runners got home. The Skeeters scored
their first run in the second inning.
With two men out, Woods singled and
stole second. yandergrift's two-bagger
sent him home They added two more
runs in the third on Clements single,
Merritt's sacrifice, Keister's triple and
Cassidy's drive TO left. Another tally
was added in the sixth, four more in the
seventh and then the Skeetefs rubbed it
in by making seven more in the eighth.

It was Mayor Pagan who made 1t pos
sible for Everett Colby to defeat Major
Lenfz and the Republican organization
at the primaries Tuesday. George L.
Record says this and Of course it must
be 50. Didn't Mayor Pagan make two
speeches for Mr.. Colby? And wasn't it
due to these speeches that the Republi-
cans of Essex County Hocked to the polls
andevoted for Golby? Why, to be sure.
Colbyswouldn't havesamouiItedsilo d row
of pins and his candidacy would have
gone by the board if Jersey sCity's Mayor
had not gone to his rescue. Mr.. Colby is
grateful and what is more natural than
that he should reciprocate by making
Mark M. Pagan the next Republican
nominee for Governor. Fagan is the log
ical candidate. If Colby had been
chosen for Senator at the primaries with
out Mayor Fagan's aid things might look
different. Mr. Colby himself might then
be in line for the Gubernatorial nomina-
ton.

Chairman Of Essex Repub-

Have Asked Rival If He
Should Resign.
INDEPENDENTS CAUGHT NAP
PTNG-MACHINE STILL HOLDS
DELEGATES TO COUNTY COM
MITTEE AND THE MAJOR WILL
CONTINUE AS HEAD OF CoUN-
TY COMMIT. ST..

Notwithstanding the decisive victory
won last Tuesday by Everett Colby over
the Essex County Republican machine,
Major Carl Lentz will continue to lead
the party organization. He will direct
the campaign for Colby and the other in-
dependent nominees named by Wednes-
day nights convention. and in all proba-
bility will be elected next December to
another term as County Chairman.
The continuance of Lentz as leader is
the result of the contests throughout the
county for members of the County Com
mittee. In some Of the townships and
boroughs the Colbyites, intent only on
scoring a yicory for their county con-
vention delegates, neglected to nominate
candidates for members of the County
Committee. As result machine men
were returned in localities that went
Overwhelmingly in favor of Colby.
In some of the large wards of New
ark, too, the fight against the machine
was centered to elect delegates for Colby
and while success attended this contest,
the independents failed to elect their
candidates for the County Committee.
This was notably true in the Sixth, Thir-
teenth and Fourteenth Wards. The
Colbyites carried all three, but the ma
chine pulled through County Commit
tee candidate, thus gaining thirty-three
members.
In East Orange which was also car
ried for Colby, the machine elected. eleven
out Of fourteen committeeman. and in
Orange, which the Colbyites swept, the
leader of the anti-Lentz movement there.
Supreme Court Clerk William Riker. was
beaten for County Committeeman by
City Counsel William A. Lord. Four
other Lentz commotteemen were elected
there.
In all. according to returns received by
Secretary Flavill up to yesterday the
LeTtz men have elected 40 of the 203
members of the organization.
Everett Colby and Major Lentz met
Yesterday at Republican Headquarters,
in Newark, for the first time since the
West Orange reformer delivered his
Knockout blow to the Major at the pri-
maries. The greeting was very cordial.
Mr.. Colby, congratulate you," the
Major said, extending his single hand.
Now, tell me, what do you think ought
to do?''
What do you mean, Major?" asked
Colby, puzzled. do what?"
Why. I want your honest opinion.
Do you think ought to resign the
chairmanship Of the County Commit
tees
aWell, Major replied Colby, "sincs
you ask me 50 frankly, Pif tell you
frankly that think you ought 10 resign. .
The Major paused for moment and
then said, very emphatieally:
well, WON'T
Colby shrugged his shoulders, smiled
and turned away.

Ward Improvement Association until he
got job under the present Republican
administration, has resigned from that
body. Bugasch's efforts to make the as
ISOLATION an annex to the Republican ma
chine having failed he decided to s,et out.
Many Democrats regret that Joseph P.
Duff has been slated for another term
as Assemblyman. They feel that his
nomination will not tend to strengthen
the ticket. Mr.. Duff's course at the last
session was such as to disgust all Demo
Gratis who have the interest Of the party
at heart. On the Morris Canal abandon
ment bill he voted against an amendment.
that would have been beneficial to Jersey
City and thereby lost the respect of AS
semblyman Hamill. who submittedit and
who fought only as he can fight to pro-
tect the interest of the city. Duf has
had three terms. He has no further
claims on the party and it is the wish Of
Democrats who want to see the Demo-
cratic ticket successful that he should not
be given another nomination. His name
on the ticket will subject it to unneces-
sary attack and his cand 'dacy will be
the means Of losing many votes for
Henry and Seymour.
