Chairman Perkins, with heat. "If
you'll keep your collar down and your
west taut, you Won't get stirred up in
to such a fit. I've only stated the be-
ginning O. Bill Bogan's letter. He adj
mits that the rooster he got off George
Henry Smith didn't have horns when he
got him. Did you eve sell Bill Began
a rose-comb rooster, George Henry?"
II did" snapped eggspert Smith, IAN.
I'm waitin' for my honey till today"
That's got nothing to do with this
here case" retorted the chairman.
Kindly keep cam for a couple of min
utes. Continuing and going on in his
letter Began says that he grated them
horns on that rooster OF his he calls
Philharmonic. He admits that them
horns are spurs. He took them spurs
off a perfectly good Plymouth Rock,
after making two Sits in the rose comb
of his rose-comb rooster, which he pur-
chased off George Henry Smith. He
fixes them spurs in the Sits and wads
them with beeswax. Then HI plasters

Perkins, that Philharmonic is weak an
sickly an all the other ROSTERS is lick
ing the stuffing out of him. Instead Of
fighting with his spurs that rooster he
got from George Henry Smith butts
with his head. This gives Bill Began
an idea, so he CRAFTS a pair of spurs in
Philharmonic's comb. since which time
Philharmonic has killed thirty-six roos-
tiers, including six o. mine.
But, Notwithstanding, an in spite o.
this, gentlemen the charge of mis-
breeding don't go against Bill Began.
George Henry Smith bred that rooster.

Mercy! Such Language by 81
Perkins! Cedar Groves
All Het Up.

Bill Bogan's horned rooster, Phil
harmonic, has got him into a pretty bad
stew. He is threatened with loss of
membership in the Cedar Grove Board
of Poultry Trade, for what is known in
the bylaws of the board as mis-
breeding"
The case of Bill Bogan's horned
rooster came up before a special meet
ing of the board last night. Silas
Perkins, as chairman, presented the
matter tersely.
ut is the solemn purpose of this
board said Perkins, ito raise right
and proper poultry. but not freak poul-
try. What we aim at is high-class
along the line of certain standards.
Them standards must be sacredly pre-
served. We want hens as is hens,
ROSTERS as is ROSTERS, ducks what look
like ducks, ct c%etera, ct cetera." In
his excitement Perkins was slipping
away from his usually polished diction.
Now, as for this horned rooster of
Bill Bogan's," he ran on; 'it don't look
like a rooster. Gentlemen, If you will
excuse the semi-profanity, that there
rooster what is called Philharmonic
looks like the devil. He's got two up
standing, %sprouting horns, and they're
not fake horns neither. They're real"

ORANGE LABOR|NG
MEN OBSERVE DAY
WITH BIG PARADE
Celebration by United Organiza-
lions Most Impressive
Ever Held.

Most impressive Of the Labor Day
demonstrations in the Oranges, which
In former years have simply been occa-
sional Indications of the power of
organized labor, the parade this morn
ing had an additional significance by
reason of the turnout Of the striking
hatters and hat trimmers, whose num-
Der far outstripped the smaller delega-
lions of other branches Of industry.
About 1000 men marched, carrying
in their hats cards advising the public
to buy no stiff or soft hats not bearing
the official insignia of their union.
Half a dozen large outing wagons
We're filled with enthusiastic groups OF
h women who have stood by the men
In their long fight for recognition.
A wagon containing banners showing
the label was part of the parade and
the men and women carrying canes and
American flags made it their business
when passing the headquarters of the
union In the Lindsey building, Orange,
to salute the fluttering flags which
adorned it.
Led by their national president, John
A. Mofitt, the hatters were the princi-
pal and central figures of the big pro-
cession. They were applauded as they
marched through the streets of the Or
anges and the presence of the long line
of men and the women in the wagons
was an impressive argument in favor of
showing respect for the union labor
forces engaged in continued and bitter
struggle for what they consider their
rights.
The following were aides to the grand
marshal: Jacob G. Becker, Arthur Lit
tie, Charles Davis. Thomas Bowling,
Peter Flanagan, Isaiah King, Edward
Cameron, George Whittle, Lawrence
McManus and Edgar Williamson.
There were fine turnouts of workmen
In the divisions and the procession re-
quired twenty minutes to pass a given
point. A platoon of police lead the
marchers, Orange taking the head of
the line in their city, and East Orange
meeting the procession when the
m&rching forces passed Patterson
street. TGrand Marshal Moffitt was in
a barouche and his aides rod on
horseback. The right of line was given
the Orange BARRIERS Union and the
cigar5fnakers followed them. After the
long line of hatters and trimmers was
a Tubstantial group from the United
Bhiilding Trades Conference. The
plumbers organization, Sheet Metal
Workers, Brotherhood of Painters and
Decorators, the latter wearing natty
write caps; Bakers Union, with white
hats; BrIcklayers' Union, hod carriers
and carpenters made up the remainder
of the line with their respective bands
and fife and drum corps.
No mishap marred tn affair. al
though a child tumbled from a wager
of the trimmers' and landed on the
ground in front of a vehicle follow
ing. The driver quickly pulled up the
horses and the child got off unhurt.
The line of march was a mass OF
flags and bunting and the American
flag predominated in sthe home. and
business house decorations. The pa
rade journeyed from West Orange to
Mum avenue, East Orange, counter
marched, returned to Orange and was
dismissed.

whether they used it TO excess. None

account for they declared they d.
