school teacher. f. H. Denig, was
charged with kissing one of his female
pupils in school, He was investigated
and eNoneratcd.
Supt. f. VI. Van Cleve believing that
the incident had cnttd nenig's useful
ness in the schools. did not recommend
his retention. Denig's friends in the
board elected him without recommended
ton. SUIT. Van Cleve appealed 10 the
state school commission and the coe'r
miSsinners held that to make Denig's
elections valid without the superintend-
cnt'S recommendation he must have Il
threc-fourths vote in the board of edu-
cation. That he could not get.
Dcnig's friends then refused TO con-
firm any of the teachers recommended
by the superintendent. Both sides are
firm and there the deadlock stands.

been elected and many of them are

Mr. Liotard relates in his plea that for
fifteen years he has been subscriber TO

omitted. II appears that MIR iiotard
has piece of property which is valued
mt $4,000. for which he found Il Gus
toner in the person of George T. liol-
den of New York. Mr. Holden went to
Paterson TO look at the property. MIR.

tard had phone. According to Mr..
Iiotard, his customer was told he was
not a subscriber Mr. Holden returned
10 New York and the sale of the proper
