Election Petitions Void.

Residents Of East Orange, indignant
at the continued use of the voting ma
chimes, which are now used in every
district in the city, have apparently
made a fatal mistake in the districts
where they circulated petitions for a
special election to pass on the question
of keeping or sending away the con-
traptions. Acting City Attorney David
Mcbride, who is looking after the legal
affairs of the municipality while City
Counsel Gedney is in the frozen North,
sont a letter today to City Clerk Lin
coin f. Rowley with an opinion that
will prevent any elections in the fiflrst
and third districts of the Fourth Ward.
The persons who got the signatures of
voters asking the special election got
the required % per centum of voters to
affix their names, but failed to make
sure that the voters We're registered in
their particular districts at the election
last year.
The law, as interpreted by Freebooter
Mcbride, is that where the signers this
year were not on the registry lists Of
last year their signatures ave no value.
and he consequently orders Mr.. Rowley

A young bull owned by Henry Simp-
kins, of Caldwell, today held up a big
red automobile, of which Frank Moran

road, and for a time it looked as If the
driver would either have to risk wreck
ing the machine by a collision with the
bull or else turn about and go a num-
Der of miles Il of his way in order to
reach his destination.
In the machine were two men and
two women in addition to Moran, who
had hired the auto to take them to
Greenwood Lake, where they are to
camp out for several weeks.
The bull was in a pasture lot near
the home of its owner, and when it
saw the a tearing up the road 1t
leaped over a fence and stood directly
in the path of the machine. Not only
was the a red, but one of the women
occupants had red hair.
The o is narrow at that point and
there was no way for Moran to so
around the bull, so he was compelled
to halt. The animal, strange to say

one of the IN
Then they threatened and hurled
harsh epithets at h obstinate animal,
but neither Moran nor any of the
others could summon up nerve enough
to leave the auto and try to get the
animal u of their path. There was
scarcely room enough to turn the ma
chine about, and one of the women
thought of a scheme.
She had her mandolin along and, TAX
ing the instrument from It's case, she
began to play the merry Widow"
waltz. The bull raised its head and,
according to Moran, a pleased express
sion followed the anger In it's eyes.
1t began to sway Its body back and
forth, and then Moran says it tried to
two-step and finally turned and ran
back to it's pasture lot. while the ma
chine continued on its way to Paterson
and thence or to the lake, where Moran
left the party.
