{. I. c. A. OFFICER
AND JUSTICE OF
PEACE CRITICIZED
Harrison CounciImen Aroused
Over Alleged Overhead Of
Lands and Harrison.

Sharp rebukes were administered to
Justice of the Peace William II. Harri-
son, of Harrison, and Special Officer
Thomas Lands, of h s. n. c. A., at a
meeting Of the Harrison Common Coun-
ell lest night. The apparent over-wilI-
ingness OF the officer to arrest drivers of
alleged lame horses, and of the justice
to fine them. caused the solons to be
very oaustic in their remarks.
Councilman Charles j.. Witt brought
ths matter to the attention of the Coun-
Gil when he had the clerk read a news
paper clipping regarding the arrest of a
Newark man for driving a horse that
had a com On one of its front feet.
Lands arrested the driver and Harrison
fined him $3.50. Mr.. Witt said 1t was
high time that steps We're taken u put
"a stop to the practise, which, he claimed.
was being overdone In Harrison. He
told OF a driver of a cattle wagon, who
was arrested and serft to jail when he
could not pay a heavy fine. A number
Of lambs that were in the wagon were
left upcared for for three days, declared
the councilman.
DIR. N. OF. Dolphin, a member of the
Council, remarked that the Justices Of
the peace were too willing to take the
cases. Councilman O'Connor branded
the business as an imposition. He told
Of having ipterfered with Lands in the
arrest of a man for driving what Lands
claimed vas a lame horse. The coun-
Gilman said that ne had compelled
Lands and the driver to go to the Har-
rison police station, where two veter-
inarians were called. They both de-
clared that the S. p. C. A.. man had
overstepped his authority. George Nc
Carthy, of the Hudson county branch
Of the S. p. c. A., wrote to Chief oil
Police Michael Rodgers to the effect
that Councilman O'Connor in inter-
ferlng with Lands had made himself
liabe to arrest.
Councilman DAILY told of an expert
ence with Justice Harrison. He said
that a man had been arrested. and Of
fered bonds, but Harrison would not
accept them and said If the fine I'M
posed vas not paid the man would
have to go to jail. The councilman also
stated that the justice refused to ac-
cept a fine under protest.
Counselor Michael T. Barrett seemed
aggravated over the whole business,
and he had this to say;
Harrison has been a mecca for s.
p. c. A. officers for a long time. These
poor drivers are arrested and haavis
fined and they generally pay without
any dispute. The s. p c. A, would NOT
stand for ONE of these cases If they
knew the facts. 1 would be willing to
take some of the cases and fight them
free of charge. II a couple Of tests are
made the officers will not be so anxious
in the future. In conclusion I would
suggest that the Council place the
entire matter in the hands Of the prose-
cutor and that he be asked to compel
Justice Harrison to produce his records
in recent cases IL he keeps any"

no,,ltrv. pigeons, snowy fowl nrd pet
stock ever seen In the Oranges the
second annual show WAS ma
opened in the East Orange skating
rink, Halstead street, adjoining the

day was deferred. The show VIII con-
tinue all week and assurances of IN
terested men and woinen insure good
attendance. The Essex Poultry, Pigeon
and Pet Stock Club has charge OF the
affair.
visitors today were greeted with a
bedIam of noise from the lusty roos-
tiers, hens, geese and other fowl, while
the pretty pigeons wisely and ~nervously
blinked their eyes as though they
wished to express their disapprovat OF
their noisy ~neighbors. Former Free
holder Charles D. Cleveland, of West
Orange, president of the Essex Poultry,
Pigeon and Pet Stock Club, was on
hand early, personally directing the ar
rangement OF the exhibits, and this
work will be finally shaped this after
noon.
A feature this year in place of the a
exhibit, which is now in New York, is
the pet stock display. The largest sin
gle entry list In the history of Orange

part of the committee. In the general
group Of tbs exhibits there is a total of
some 1,40o displays. The lists Of en-
tries cover a vide section of the
country and incllded in the coops are
snowy fowl and other groupings from
Connecticut, Rhode Island, Pennsyl-
vania, Massachusetts, Delaware, Long
Island and New York, as we'll as vari-
GUS sections of New Jersey.
N. A. Rice, of Atlantic Highlands,
who is a wealthy New York wooden i'm
porter. has the largest individual dis
play, and his entries include Wyan-
dottes, Leghorns, Rhode Island reds, as
well as many ornamental fowl. A new

One of the fine groups is the pet stock
collection Of sixty exhibits, including
the Madison Square Garden prize-win-
ners. Last year there was but one ex-
hibit in the pet stock division. and the
management is enthusiastic over their
success in getting together the present
fire display.

HIS DEAD FATHER
Cornelius Hartnett, of Harrison,
Was in Trolley Accident
Last Sunday.

Mrs. Lynch, I think papa is dead
said little Cornelius Hartnett to Mrs.
Jane Lynch, a boarding house keeper, OF
so1s Harrison avenue, Harrison. shortly
before noon today. The child had gone
into a room at the Lynch home. where
his father boarded, and being unable to
get an answer from his parent notlhed

he was bereft of reason. He went back
to bed at 5 o'clock and at 1890 o'clock
got up again and went into another
room. That was the last time he was
seen alive.
The accident that befell Hartnett
Sunday seemed to completely unnerve
him, as 1t was the second trolley acci-
dent ne had been in in two years. In
the previous one he was knocked from
a wagon belonging to Ballantine d
Co, brewers, of Newark, for whom he
worked as a stableman for many
years.

children, all of whom are grown. He
had three by his second wife. They are
all Young and reside with their grand
mother, Mrs. Catharine German, at 81
Harrison venue
