STUDENTS MUST ATTEND
CHAPEL AT PRINCETON,

PRINCETON. Oct. 1S:-The stu
dents of Princeton University who
had been congratulating themselves
on being relieved from attending reg
ular chapel exercises had a sudden
jar Monday when the announcement
was made that the exercises would be
held as formerly, commencing this
week. So far there has been no
weekday chapel at Princeton this
year, and the report spread rapidly
that the faculty had decided to re-
lieve the undergraduates of this
form of compulsory worship, which
is not held in the highest esteem by
the students who have q tendency to
late sleeping.
The announcement was definite
enough in it's statement that it was
simply owing to the increased COM
plexity of the schedule attendant up
on the introduction of the tutorial
system that it had not been possible
to make a feasible arrangement to
date. 1t was also intimated that a
new system, consisting of signed
blanks to be collected by the door
keepers, would be introduced this
year, which would thwart all enter
prising students in the efforts to
avoid this morning duty of fifteen
minutes. To offset this severity it is
stated that the students will be re-
quired to attend chapel only twice a
week, and chat they may choose the
dates to suit themselves.

STATE CENSUS NO
BASIS FOR ALTERATION.
Continued from page ~

Atlantic county by the 1905 figures
is 55,52S, so that Mr.. Elvins the lone
assemblyman, will now stand for ar
overplus in representation of 1876.
1t was on this ground that it would
have been considered entitled to an
other assemblyman had a reappor-
tiOnment been made.
Bergen county shows a similar
condition. Its 1905 population is
1905 and it has but two assembly
men, who, according to the state av-
erage should represent but 1854
citizens. This shows an overplus in
representation in this county of 49,
419, and establishes Bergen's claim
to an additional assemblyman if a re-
apportionment should be made.
Cumberland presents the other
side of the situation. In 1900 its
population was 51,193 and it has two
assemblymen. Based on the state
average for 1900, therefore, the
county has shown a minus quantity
in representation of 1885. BY the
1900 enumeration the county Is
shown to have increased but 917,
which reduces the minus quantity to
10,67S. Clearly, then, if a reappor-
tionment should have been made this
would have been one of the counties
to lose an assemblyman.
With one assemblyman under a
reapportionment, Cumberland's ov-
in representation would have
been 1915, or but a trife more
than that of Atlantic county under
the old apportionment.
Middlesex county with a 1900 cen
sus of 79,762 and three assembly
men, has shown a minus quantity in
representation of 14,420. The e
census brings the population up to
1896, so the minus quantity will
stand at 10,340.

troll of the democratic party; name
lv. the water and health boards. 1t
is hoped that the near future may de-
liver the taxpayers from the extrov-
agant and unbusinesslike methods of
the present democratic Board of
Water Commissioners, who through
their methods have continued to in
crease the expenditure of money
necessary to run their department
until now nearly one-third of the re-
ceipts are annually consumed for its
maintenance.
Under republican control a new
up-to-date system of bookkeeping
has been ~inaugurated whereby the fl
nancial condition of the city can be
determined at a moments notice.
The system of bookkeeping in use by
the water department is exceedingly
poor and ~antiquate,- and should be
revised and brought up to date.
The efficiency of the present tax
collector is verified by the fact that
the tax arrear list if 6 100000, less
than a year ago, showing an earnest
and conscientious effort on his part
to perform the duties of his Office to
the best interests of the taxpayers.
Our present Comptroller, B. Frank
Henry, has filled the office with cred
it and efficiency and should be re-
turned to his present position of
trust.
Although the present republican
administration was saddled with
numerous bills left over by their
democratic predecessors, amounting
over $4,000. 90, which had to be
paid out of this years a%ppropria-
ton, curtailing the work planned by
the present administration, their eff
forts on the line of republican i'm
provements have been varied and
commendable, all tending to place
the city in the first rank of well-gov-
erned municipalities.
Bright Prospects Ahead.
With the continuance of the repub-
lican administration, another year
should see many streets with up-to-
date pavements; a new police station
which is now planned, completed,
and a new water board of up-to-date
ability to accomplish something for
the benefit of the taxpayers.
We, therefore, hereby recommend
to all, the candidates whose names
will appear upon the republican tick
ct, and ask your hearty cooperation
and diligent effort toward their cleo
ton, with the assurance that they
will give to the taxpayers of the
county and city, that business and
economical administration that all
demand.

ROYAL WINS
IN WALMSEY ACTION.

TRENTON, Oct. 1S:-Vice-Chan-
lcellor Garrison filed yesterday an
opinion setting aside as void an in
surance certificate in the Royal Ar
canum for $4,000 taken out by John
Edward Walmsey, of Jersey City, on
the ground that Walmsey, at the
time he vas being examined for the
insurance. made a misstatement con
corning the of death of his
mother. Walmsey said his mother
died of pneumonia and that none of
his near relatives had had consump-
ton.
Vice-Chancellor Garrison said:
As matter of fact the mother of the
applicant died of consumption in
1888. The defendant proved this,
but the complainants Insist they
must go further and prove that the
insured had knowledge of the cause
of his mothers death and had knowl-
edge THAT she had cons lmption."
Pile court holds that the insured
must have known of the cause of his
mothers death and that he assumed
full responsibility when he made an
swer to the questions in the insur-
ance application blanks.

j. A. Wonzor Claims That
Former Wife Threatened
to Fire House.
BLAZE DID DAMAGE TO EXTENT
OF $500.
Fire Was Set Early This Morning
While Occupants of Building
We're Asleep.

Fire which started on the out
side southeast corner Of the j. A.
Wonzor residence, 1907 Beltrami
avenue, badly damaged the build
ing and did some damage to the
furniture and contents. The
loss is estimated at $500, with no
insurance.
That the fire was incediary
could be seen at glance. The
ground and the lower part of the
building at the corner where the
blaze originated had been satu-
rated with kerosene and a strong
odor of burning oil was prevalent.
Mr.. and Mrs. r. Midtlyng, who
occupied the residence, discover
ed the blaze. They were asleep in
the building when the rooms be-
come full of smoke and Mr.. Midi
lying awoke, made a hasty exam
nation and found the house on
fire. He Immediately turned in
an alarm and the fremen arrived
in time to take a large part of the
furnishings out of the burning
building, one corner of which is
almost entirely burned away and
the remainder badly damaged by
smoke and water.
Mr.. Wonzor suspects his form
err wife of having started the
blaze. The relations between
them during the time they lived
together were of a strained
nature, and Mrs. Wonzor was
given a decree of divorce some
some time. It is claimed by Mr..
Wonzor that his former wife
threatened to ''get even" with
him.
Mr.. Wonzor has consulted
County Attorney Loud about the
matter and expects to swear out
warrant for the arrest of Mrs.
Wonzor.

COUNTY ATTORNEY LOUD AND
CORONER MARCUM RETURN.
Sheriff Bailey Will Remain at
Scene of Tragedy No Clues
Developed.

County Attorney Loud and
Coroner Marcum returned this
afternoon from Baudette, where
they examined the circum stances
surrounding the murder of Matt
Cannon last Saturday night. Mr..
Loud stated to the Pioneer that
as yet not the slightest clue had
been found. Sheriff Bailey will
remain on the scene of the crime
for one or two days longer in an
attempt to apprehend the per-
petrator.
Tho investigation by County
Attorney Loud before the coro-
ner's jury was most searching,
ten residents of Spooner and
seven of Baudette being ex-
amined. The investigation de
veloped that Cannon had twice
drawn his gun on inoffensive
parties the day he was shot but
no clue to his murderer was
secured. ...
County Attorney Loud and
Coroner Marcum say that the
murder Of Cannon was most foul
and the former declares that
vigorous efforts will be made to
bring the murderer to Justice.

as soon as possible, as the nature
of the disease was such that had
it been postponed for two days

BURGLARIZED
Unknown Thieves Gain En-.

Forty knives, four revolvers.
five razors, one hat and $40 in
money was secured last night by
a burglar who entered the E. H.
Winter & Co. store at some time
between 1870 and 11:3O last
night, unlocking the door in en-.
tering and relocking it when he
went out. The police have been
notified but up to the present
time no clues as to who the rob.
bers are have been found.
This makes the third time that
the Winter establishment has
been entered in precisely the
same manner. Each time the
robber left all doors of the store
locked after he had made his
visit and secured his hall.
Andrew Casperson, who sleeps
at the store, was absent until
about 1880, when he entered the
establishment and retired for
the night, not noticing that any
thing was missing. Upon arts
ing this morning, however, he
found the goods gone and a
round Of the store disclosed what
articles had been taken. He ex,
amined every door closely but
found them all locked.
No explanation of the affair can
be made and no suspicion is at
tached to any of the employees of
the establishment.

SAYS GAMING
is ALRIGHT
A Distinguished Professor
Takes Radical Ground on
Gambling Question.

A great many Bemidji people
will be interested in the views of
Herbert Gardiner, lord of the
University of Columbia, and
Prof William J. Kirby of the
Catholic University of America
who have, in addresses before
the Contemporary club, stated
that they could find no reason
for saying that gambling in It,.
self was wrong. Both expressed
the opinion that gambling can.
not be eradicated from modern
life and that the wisest thing to
do is to properly control it. The
discussion was listened to by a
distinguished audience.
Professor Kir by, after admit
ting the theoretical legitimacy Of
bling, made an appeal for a
course of instruction in the
schools which might lessen
gambling in the next generation
and said that cities should take
up the work of regulating gamb-
ling as an essentially city prob
lem.
"Gambling is not simply a
game of chance" said he, "for
chance is present in most bust
ness transactions. Gam bling is
not merely the desire for gain.
It is not merely means of excite
ment. The constitutional gamb.
Ter is the man who desires only
gain at play as means to enable
him to play again.
cit may seem strange for me
to say SO as professor of ethics,
but I have never been able to
find reason that will permit me
to say gam bling is wrong. It is
argued that ambling is wrong
because it is a waste. On the
contrary there is no destruction
