The feeling of d%issension which is
said to have existed in the Knox Pres
hyterian Church, Kearny, between the
pastor, the Rev. Roand S. Dawson, and
certain members of tho congregation
for several months, was extended to
the afternoon Sunday school yesterday.
when the pastor. acting rs superintend-
ent, asked George Howe, a pupil in
Miss Emily Duncan's class. to read
with him Il passage of Scripture.
| refuse to do as YOU ask the pupil
is said to have replied. for it should
be read by the entire school,"
You refuse to read with me- the
pastor is said to have exclaimed.
Yes, | do"
"Thep, take your hat and loaf and
leave the room"
Young Hoew had hardly recovered
from the effect of the alleged demand
when Edward Sergeant, jr., was asked
TO do as Howe had been asked by the
pastor.
Il refuse TO read" young Sergeant
is said 40 have answered, the teacher
at the same time showing Nisibly her
feelings over the embarrassing position.
The incident Is said to have widened
the breach and several who have been
connected with the several organiza-
lions of the church declared today that
they would lend no further support to
the Sunday school work of the church.
Several of the teachers and pupils who
were witnesses to the incident were
strong in their denunciation.
Mrs. William Duncan. former as
sistant superintendent of the school.
of POI Bergen avenue. hat town, was
seen today in the absence of her
daughter, who said that the latter was
SO incensed over the affair that she
declared i'm her Indignation that her
labors in the Sunday school had ceased.
Mrs. Duncan volunteered that she had
also ceased active work in the school
owing to the alleged difference be-

EX-POL|CEMAN IS
FOUND DEAD; SAID
TO Be ACCIDENT
John J. Keegan's Body DiscOy-
cred Near Clay St. Bridge
in East Newark.

The body of John keegan, q former
Newark policeman, who was found
dead yesterday morning on the abut-
ment on the East Newark side of the
Clay street bridge, was removed to his
home, "a Mulberry street, this city, last
night from Walsh's morgue, Harrison,
where it had been taken. The body
was discovered lyign in a pool of blood
by James Kennedy, a tender on the
bridge, while the latter was walking
along the bridge. The opinion of the
East Newark authorities and other Off
Gals is that Keogan met death acct
d~entally. 1t was due 10 a fractured
skull. Stories of foul play were in
Vestigatcd, however.
The peculiar fact is that in order i9r
Keegan to reach the place where the
body was found he had to climb oyer
approach to prevent anybody from
walking over the new structure. A nev
bridge is being built at the place, and
It not yet completed, and traffic IS done
on the temporary foot bridge.
Chief of Police Thomas Neville, of
East Newark. who is investigating the
case, declared that he thought it was
an accident. lie said:
II was patrolling around he bridge
all Saturday night and until Z O'Clock
yesterday morning, and l saw nobody
that appeared suspicious or, in fact. l
saw nothing extraordinary around the
place at all. In my opinion, there was
no foul play i'm the case Probably
Keegan walked out on the approach Of
the structure and fell off"
jeremiah e. Riordan. the superin-
tendent of the Clay street bridge, when
interviewed today made the following
statement:

accidental. There are always two men
stationed in a little house on the East

Senator Deliver. chairman of the

no legislation on the subject. That

Tho Union Stamp Guarantees the
Quality of tho Goods.
How often do you go il,so store to
make purchase. ask for n certain
article. demand that 1t bear label and
have the clerk or proprietor tell you
that he does not carry such an article
in stock bearing the union label-that
he has no demand for such goods?
He does not tell you that he has n
demand for any other class OF goods.
AS matter of fact. the only goods
that there Is demand for Is the prod
uct that bears union label.
Go into any store. ask to be shown
Il shirt and soc whether the clerk
shows you union or nonunion gar-
ment. He will proceed to show you
shirts till further orders, and when you
nsk If lie hns any with label he will
either tell you no or go to some re-
mote section OF the store and show you
the goods. He Will very likely state
that lie has no demand for that class
OF goods
Why should he make the exception
TO the union made shirts? You did
not demand the nonunion shirt, but he
very promptly showed it to you and
perhaps used his best endeavors to in
duce you to purchase.
Start out to purchase n suit of
clothes. Is 1t necessary for you TO de-
nnnd q suit which does not bear n
label In order TO have the clerk show
you such clothing? Well. hardly. He
will take you to tables loaded with
suits of all descriptions. ask you your
size. what kind of suit you desire
and about what price you wish to pay.
Does he lead You to the tables which
are loaded with label or nonlabel gar
menb? When you ask him for the
label product he Will likely begin ex-
planning TO you that the goods are
made in union factory; that the en-
ployees OF that factory are better paid
/ than NIL others. but for some unac-
countable reason the label does not mp
pear They are entitled to use the
! label. and 1t Is strange 20 him that it
Is not In the garments. If you do not
bite on that and allow him to wrap up
the suit he will explain to you how
much more that suit would cost you IL
II bore the libel. He has had Il demand
for the label. md It was not put in the
clothing. If you persist still further,
perhaps he Will agree to see that IL
label is placed In the suit
You did not demand suit without
Il label, but were shown one. Why
, not show the label goods and let you
, demand the suit without the label?-

DAUGHTERS DO NOT
FAVOR MARRIAGE OF PA
Children of Senator Davis, octoaen-
arlan and Millionaire. Against
Wedding Young Woman.

WASHINGTON d. c., Jan. o.
AS result of the bitterness engend-
cred by his coming marriage with
Miss Maude Ashford. Senator Henry
Gassaway Davis, who ran for vice
President on the Democratic ticket at
the last election, has Quarreled with
his daughter, Mrs. Arthur Lee. He
has packed his baggage and moved to
the Shoreham hotel, where he has
been staying two weeks. Despite ali
family opposition. and on the part OF
Mrs. Lee and her elder sister. Mrs
Elkins, the wife of Senator Stephen
B. Elkins. that opposition has been
bitter and and continuous. the mar
riage will take place. The date has
not yet been decided upon.
Rumor had it that the opposition
OF the daughters of the aged Senator
had finally been successful, but that
rumor was throttled by Miss Ashford
herself, when seen Mt her beautiful
home on Farragut Square
There Is no truth in the rumor
that my engagement to Senator Davis
has been broken said young Miss
Ashford There were early denials
sent out because Senator Davis and l
believed the public was uHduly con-
cerned over the matter which we
deemed of strictly personal nature.
Possibly a mistake was then made by
sending out denials rather than con.
firmation."
Asked whether there was truth in
the estatement that Senator Davis
had smothered all family opposition
by agreement to make a settlement
OF Si.oO0,000 upon his prospective
bride In lieu of dover. she said she
had never had any discussion of fin.
