SACRIFICES LIFE TO SAVE
HIS TWELVE PASSENGERS.

ASBURY PARK, Sept. 9.-Twelve
persons staying at this resort owe their
lives to the heroism and ~self-sacrifice
of James Murtha, a 1~9-year-old
youth, who voluntarily faced and met
death when a stage he was driving
halted within a few feet of the railroad
tracks at the Monmouth avenue cross
ing. leaving the horse right in the path
of a mile-a-miDute flyer.
Mut,ha could have saved his OWL
life by jumping, but he saw that If he
let go of the reins the horse dra wing
the stage would pull 1t in front OF the
locomotive and that all of his passen-
gers would be killed. Accordingly, he
stuck to his post, and when the horse
was hit his tight grip on the reins flung
him to destruction beneath the wheels
of 'ths engine.

HARR|GAN OUTING
A HUGE SUCCESS
PostpOnement of Ball Game with
Robert Davis Association the +.
Cnly Disappointment.

After one of the most successful out
ings ever held by an Essex county
political organization, the William Har-
rigan Association returned home last
night without any untoward events
having happened to mar the pleasure
of the. day. In Difference to the wishes
of Sheriff Harrigan the time was given
up to recreation, for, as the sheriff eX-
pressed it, "You can talk politics anx
time without spending money to get
awayafrom Newark, Let's have a good
time"
. At witzel's point view Grove tine
Harrigans, after they had enjoyed a
good breakfast, INDUCED IL athletic
games, the only disappointment being
tie calling off of their ~long-expecte,i
baseball game with the Robert Davis
Association, of jersey City, which mad
been scheduled and awaited with glee.
Michael Doyle showed the way home
in the 1OO-yard dash, while Michael Hor-
ley, a policeman of the Third Precinct.
surprised everybody by his burst OF
speed in the fat mans race, which he
won handily.
Upon the return at 0 o'clock last night
the excursionists again formed in line,
and with rockets and red-fre pro-
claimed the ending of a wonderful day
to the people of Newark. From the
dock to Market street, thence to La
fayette to Union to Ferry. and then
to the clubhouse. the Harrigans brave
Iy marched TO their headquarters,
where the parade was dismissed.
Many Republicans showed their
friendship for the Essex county sheriff
by attending the outing, as did prar-
tically all of the city officials.

Plans of Better National
Service.
Especial to the Newark star.1

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. 9.-With DEL
egates from San Antonio. Tex, max
ing a desperate fight to get the next
meet, the National Postal Clerks Asso-
citation is today holding Its final con-
vention session here.
Expressing his conviction that the
Federal Government could gain by
spending money for lettering the sala-
ries and conditions of postal clerks and
other civil service employees rather
than in building warships, Congress
man I. II. Nichols. of Scranton. Pa,
won hearty applause during his adj
dress yesterday afternoon.
Delegates who claimed that the
franking privilege loaded them up with
extra work for which they secure no
credit asked for a change In methods
that would list the nail matter ranked
through from Washington by Congress-
men and other favored officials. while

the registry division to assure return
receipts from dunning letters.
NlBnl-WOTklHB CiefkS III Dig OFFICES got
support for a resolution demanding that
seven hours of night service equal the
eight hours of day work performed by
more favored clerks. Declaration was
also made in favor of a plan for disin =
fecting mail bags, which, it Is claimed,
carry disease among the clerks forced
to handle them.
Persons who take chances of their
letters going through with less stamps
than required are to be brought up
with a round tur If Federal officials
back another resolution that calls for
the punishment of such "stamp-dodg-
ers." Overworked clerks who claim
that a big part of thelr duty consists
of collecting overdue mailing CON
mended to government authorities that
their double postage be exacted when
less than sufficient stamps are placed
on letters. The New Jersey delegation
also went on record in a resolution rec
ommending establishment both of rural
parcels post, which has been fought by
express companies, and Of postal saw
