with delight in the new comedy dra-
ma, THE Convict and the Girl"
which is being presented by the Nit
tenthal Bros. Amusement Co. next
week at Burt's.
Langdon Mccormick, the author,
has given the stage a clever play typi-
cal of American life as it Is lived
along the rock-bound coast, in real
istic manner. The play abounds in
thrilling situations, is filled with rap
id action and vibrates throughout
with intense human emotions, stirring
the onlooker to sympathy and pity as
only play which is genuine and
true to life can. 1t comes to Burt's
Thursday afternoon to close the week.
The real boss of P. H. Sullivan's
company which presents "The Cow
boy and The Squaw," at the Burt on
Sunday afternoon for half week is
Calico big 1000 lb. Montana steer.
He does not make his appearance on
the stage until the finale of the third
act, but when he does he is master
of all he surveys" The stage man.
ager, carpenter property man, stage
hands, actors and actresses all have
business elsewhere at that time, and
the trainer and Bronco Bob are figur-
ing where they can find an insurance
company that will take out another
policy on their lives. The greatest
of all stage effects race between the
steer and the broncho on treadmills
is seen in this play.

Toledo !heaters
Attractions at the Valentine Theatre,
Toledo, Ohio, Week of January
TWenty-Seventh.

The Valentine theatre, Toledo, Ohio
will offer on Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, January 272S-29 the fore
most classic actor of the stage today
Mr.. Robert Mantell, in his Shakes.
|perian repertoire. Several seasons ago
he appeared in New York in Shakes
pearian productions and his hit was
instantaneous. Newspaper after news
paper printed columns about his work
and ii was only a matter of few
months until he was accepted as the
foremost exponent of high class pro-
ductions on the stage today. After
that he appeared in Boston, Chicago
and other cities of Importance, and re-
peated his success. Since that time
his career has been q triumphant one.
Everywhere he appears he is conced-
Cd to be the ablest actor of classic
parts on the stage today His roper
toire includes Hamlet" Julius Cae-
sar," king Lear "Othello" and
Richard Ill" The opportunity to
witness performances of the classic
dramas is rare one today and the
opportunity to witness so proficient
an actor as Mr.. Mantell in such parts
is even more rare.
The Valentine theatre will offer on
Friday, Jan. 31st, and Saturday, Feb
ruary 1st, one of the foremost dra-
matte attractions on the state, Will
liam Faversham in 1.-The Squaw
Man" Five seasons of undiminished
popularity have attested the merit of
this production, and of Mr.. Faver-
sham's irreproachable enactment of
the leading role. When originally
brought out it proved one of the most
sensational successful plays of the
day. The favor accorded it was i'm
mediate and from that time until now
nothing but the largest audiences
have greeted it everywhere it has
been presented. 1t is conceded to pro-
vide Mr. Faversham with his best
role, part in which he will be re-
membered. 1t is above all a beautiful
story, brilliantly developed The sit
uations are of the kind that grip the
audience and hold them spellbound.
Mr.. Faversham's personality finds
splendid adoption to the part of "The
Squaw Man and in the scenes OF the
depletion of strong emotion his work
is assured to be superb. This produc-
tion the management declares is one
of the great ones of the day and one
which no theatre patron should miss,
for it is one that will live in the men,
ory of the theatre goer.

CALLED TO PATERSON.
The Rev. Philip H. Clifford, of Brook.
Iyn, Gets Offer.

PATERSON, Jan. 2S.-The members
of the congregation of the Sixth Bap-
fist Church last night unanimously
voted to extend a call to the Rev.
Philip H. Clifford, of the Fourth Ave
nue. Baptist Church, of Brooklyn, to
fill the pulpit vacated last November
through the resignation of the Rev.
George Douglas.
Mr.. Clifford was educated for the
ministry at Crosier Seminary, Chester,
Pa, and his first charge was the First
Baptist Church at Bridgeton. After
remaining there about a year he went
to Crosier Seminary for a post
graduate course, at the conclusion of
which he was called to the Fourth
Avenue Baptist Church, of Brooklyn,
where he has now been two years.
The Rev. James w. McDouall, pastor
of the Union Avenue Baptist Church,
has received a call from the congrega-
ton OF the Oakmont Baptist Church,
OF Oakmont, a suburb of Pittsburg,
asking him to become their pastor.
This latest call is convincing of the
fact hat Paterson clergymen are in
great demand. Already six have re-
signed to accept charges elsewhere and
a seventh has announced his retire
ment to private life.

OFFICIALS GUESTS
S0MMER AND MASON AT
MEMS CLUB BANQUET.
Sixth Presbyterian Church Members
Establish Precedent by Having
Speeches Made Before Banquet.

The committee having in charge the
arrangements for the annual dinner OF
the Mems Club of the Sixth Presby-
terian Church, which vas held in the
new annex room Of the church last
night, departed from the old custom OF
having after-dinner speeches. Instead.
the speakers told what they had to say
before tackling the good things pre-.
pared by the committee.
The two principal speakers were
Sheriff Sommer and Under-sherfff
Mason. The Rev. DR.. d. w. Lusk.
pastor of the church, introduced the
speakers, and when he called on Sheriff
Sommer he pleased the guests, who
numbered fully 300, by referring to the
fitness of Sheriff Sommer to fill the
mayoralty chair or that of Governor.
"Sommer has made good as a sheriff.
said the pastor, and the vociferous
cheers hat followed this statement
were evidence that others present held
similar Views.
In his address Sheriff sommer said
eA'dl luls OOuiltN Heeueu q mouse OF ue-
tention where witnesses could be held
instead Of committing them to jail.
There should be a place of COM
mitment for Juveniles that the youths
charged with minor offenses would not
be compelled to mingle with hardened
criminals, rs is the case now" said the
sheriff. persons charged with crime
and unable to employ counsel for their
defense should be given an opportunity
to procure competent legal ala"
Mr.. Sommer believed that the Grand
jury system needed reforming, and
suggested thai steps should be taken
which would result in taking away
from the sheriff the power to name
these, as well as petit juries. He be-
lieved that criminals, after serving
their sentences, should be given a
chance to take their old places In social
life.
Under-sherin Mason advanced the
statement that If youths are to be kept
from criminal paths the churches win
have to take a hand and offer some
inducements in the way of places of
amusement where youths could eongre-
gate at night.
These two speakers were preceded by
the Rev. Charles Sickle and the Rev.
Samuel J. Skevington. A musical trio
then entertained, and following this the
guests sat down to a feast.

High School Students "PaSte
Departure in Highways
<
and Byways.

Pupils of the Newark High School
made it evident last night that the time
for the "grads'' to leave their alma
mater is close at hand, and as a result
there are many storekeepers, merchants
and owners Of private dwellings with
in a radius of half a mile of the High
School building who wish that the pu-
pills of this seat of learning would not
be so enthusiastic every time there Is
to be a graduation.
The exercises attending the class
graduation of 1908 will not occur until
tomorrow night. On store windows,
porches, fences and ever on many doors
and in the vestibules of private houses
the announcement was made last night
in the most peculiar manner
In years gone by the ''grads" were ac-
customed to use q can of paint--it
didn't matter what the color of the
paint was-and with an old brush the
grads usually started out to literal
~ paint the city. Early risers would
find a sign with the initials IN. II.
S." and then the figures of the year
decorating street
This custom became so annoying that
the police were instructed to watch
and catch the perpetrators of the deeds,
but the grads were wiser than the
bluecoats and there were never any ar
rests made. Finally orders were issued
for the apprehension of the offenders
and the teachers at the High School
were asked to aid the police. As a re-
suit the practise was stopped.
But a new method had been decided
upon for this year, and when store
keepers went to their places of busi-
ness this morning and found "stickers'
on their windows bearing the letters
IN. II. S., January, 1905" they be-
came indignant.
The backs of these small posters
were ''gummed." and it took much
exertion to scrape the signs from the
glass.
Where these ''stickers' we're printed
is a mystery. OF course it is not pre-
surned that the dear girl grads
had anything to do with this latest
method of celebrating their leaving the
High School, but many of the homes
of these girl members of the class
came In for most of the decorations
last night.
Today at the High School the male
members were mute, and no mention
of last nights work was made.
The police have another mystery to
solve. while the victims of the parting

PEELED to use much ''elbow grease in

BEAR, LED BY WOMAN.
CLAWS UP BULLDOG.
Animals Meet and Fight in Hoboken
Termina1-Men Separate

HOBOKEN, Jan. ga bear cub
and a bulldog mixed things up in the
Lackkawanna terminal yesterday, TO
the entertainment of hundreds of pas
sengers.
A pretty and handsomely gowned
young woman came off a ferryboat
leading the bear by a chain. The bull
dog wore an expensive collar. Bear and
dog evidently spotted each other stimuli
%taneously, and each leaped for the
other, ~snarling and growing, and
scratched each other v%iciousiy.
When the bear started for the dog it
nearly pulled the young woman off her
feet, but recovering her balance, h
proved as game as either Of the ami
mails, for she calmly dropped the chain
and cheered the bear along. After a
few moments fighting, however, which
resulted In the dog getting pretty we'll
clawed up, the young woman appealed
to the ~bystanders to stop the scrap,
and there was an immediate o by
half a dozen men to do her bidding.
After a struggle, bear and dog were
separated n the young woman
boarded a train for East Orange.

FRANZ CHOSEN
IN EIGHTH
WARD
rundown for Dr.. Kraemer
on Democratic Execu.
tive Committee.

The ten Eighth Ward members of
the Essex County Democratic County
Committee met last night in Bucher's
Hall. Ala Belleville avenue, and elected
Richard j. Franz a member of the
executive committee, after a hot con
test between the friends of Franz and
those of DR.. Charles +. Kraemer, who
got five votes at a meeting on January
10. when owen r. Conlon received the
same number of votes, and, after a
contest in the county committee on
January 10, was seated. Kraemer's
right to be seated as a member of the
executive committee was contested,
and the question finally referred back
to the Eighth Ward members.
Thomas J. Harrison. chairman Of the
Eighth Ward committee, presided last
night. Mr.. Conlon was the chief sup
porter of DR.. Kraemer, and Matthew
Flanagan spoke for Mr.. Franz, WHO
was elected. 1t was said he received
eve of the nine votes. If credentials
are given to Mr.. Franz, DR.. kraemer
will make a contest at the meeting CT
the county committee next month.
In the vote DR.. Kraemer cast u blank
ballot, and two other votes were given
for him, the other seven going to
Franz.
II fail to see what has been accom-
plished by the action of this meeting"
DR.. Kraemer said today. II
was elected on the same ballot that
pore the name of owen F. Conlon. He
has taken his seat, and now they en-
deavor to prevent me from taking
mine. There was no attempt to re-
scind the action of January 10 made.
Without preamble or anything that ex-
plains the reason for 1t, they simply
took another ballot on the election of a
member Of the executive committee of
the county committee.
'"They may take as many votes as
they like on the subject. 1 fail to see
what effect they can have. ! was
elected and received my credentials.
Those credentials entitle me to a seat
in the executive committee and l pro-
pose to get there If it is possible.
ut is the desire Of City Counsel
James r. Nugent to keep Franz in as
treasurer Of the county committee,
and, as he was not elected to the
county committee, he can only keep
his hold by being chosen by the dis
trict members to represent the ward in
the executive body.
Il am by no e anxious to go to
the executive committee, but L cannot
let the fight against me go on UNI
noticed. ! believe that it would be
but a simple matter to have the courts
settle this whole fight
Mr.. Franz said that he appreciated
the honor that had been dohe him
The Eighth Ward Committeeman had
chosen him, with only DR.. Kraemer's
vote opposing, he averred, and he
considered II q compliment.
