Man Has No Edge

We sometimes think that, after all
man, despite his critical eye in re-
spect to Woman's attire. 6 has not
much to his credit along the same line
toward which he may righteously
point with pride. Man makes merry
in contemplation of woman's out
landlsh hats; he wakes gay whenever
he thinks upon her high hlpped
gowns, her high and funny collars
arouse much mirth within him, and
her coy and fetching pink ribbons,
but half concealed beneath peak-a-
boo waits, tickle his funny bone i'm
mensely. And so man resolves him.
self into jOkesmith, and many the
quip and jest he frames about woman
and her sartorial wiles. An anus
ing animal is man. He used to guf-
faw in this same fashion at woman
and her hustle, her big sleeves, her
hoop skirts, and her crinoline, in
days agone. From the time when
the recollection of man runneth mot
to the contrary, these things have
been sources of abundant and excess
sive hilarity. Ha! Ha. He! He!
Foolish woman and her curious
clothes-says man! Well, now, let
us take look at man. There he
goes, Is not that little olive hat he
wears fetching? That is his latest
fad, and it has extended to his coat
that greenland his shirt, and tie,
and trousers. Heavens! His socks
and shoes even have turned olive
green. See how the pockets of that
coat are cut; and the queer little
cuffs. Do these things strike him as
funn? Not at all. Man thinks he
looks great in that olive garb. The
goats and COWS do not try to. schew
him up, because there are no goats
and COWS around the streets to get at
him; and the horses have nearly all
turned into automobiles, and do not
bite. Let us see about man few
years back. DO you remember when
he wore sash of many colors, and
thought it beautiful? And then his
erstWhl!e hat-band. Dost recall that
gorgeous affair? Take him in his
GLAD rags of this time, no less
than yesteryear. Did ever woman
wear anything more freakishly pat
termed than his full-dress coat? New
er, since the days of Adam-and she
never will. The utmost effort of her
remarkable ingenuity is unequal to
1t. And his plug hat! We draw the
ven. When you come right down to
the truth, no "Merry Widow" was
ever crazier in design than mans
Sunday go-to-meeting lid! Still, we
are not hammering man. He has the
right to enjoy himself, and wear
what he pleases; and if he: pleases to
wear fantastic toys, far be it from us
to say him nay. 1t is only that man
excites our sense of humor when
he smokers at women and her buds,
the while he lays the flattering unct-
ion to his soul that all he does is
quite the right and proper thing, and
most sensibly to be approved. Man
is all right-on all average he is a
good fellow-but at times his get-up
is quite as grotesque as ever woman
dared to wear. And ofttimes we sus-
pect that Solomon in all his glory
was not arrayed as either one of
these.-Forsythe Times-J ournal.

that she woulG seek relief in death.
When found in her Sas-filled bedroom

Apparently Mrs. Conen had timed
her suicide so that there would be no

HOLD CONFERENCE
Together With Otto Barnard
They Lunch at Yale
g. Presidents Home.
NEW YORK SITUATION
THOROUGHLY DISCUSSED
Meeting Arranged Through Sec
retary Norton at Request OF
\ New York Leaders.

MEW HAVEN. Conn, SeptA 19.-Pres-
Sdent Taft and Colonel Theodore Roose-
velI will hold an important conference
here this afternoon, presumably on the
New York political situation. The con-
ference was arranged at the request of
Mr.. Roosevelt, who is now on his way
here from Oyster Bay on a fast auto.
Lloyd G. Grisconl,~ president OF the
New. York County Republican Com
mittee and Otto 7. Barnard, the Re
publican candidate for mayor of New
York last fall, also will take part in
the conference.
The meeting was arranged on Satur-
day hast, when Secretary Norton WAS
visiting his family. Mr.. Griscom and
Mr.. Barnard telepho4 cd Secretary
Norton and asked that an arrange
ment be made by which Colonel Roose-
welt might hold a conference with the
President during his New Haven visit.
This the President, it is said, was glad
to DO. He said that he expected to
lunch as usual with President Arthur
Il. Hadiey after the Yale corporation
meeting this morning. President Had
ley was advised of this, and according
ly invited the President, Mr.. Roose-
Welt, Mr.. Griscom, Mr.. Barnard and
Secretary Norton to take luncheon to-
gether.
President Hadley's house having been
dismantied during the summer holiday,
the lznoheon was arranged at the home
of Henry C. White, a neighbor and
friend of President Hadley
Norton Remains Mum.
When asked this morning to state the
subject Of the conference, Secretary
Norton said he knew nothing about it,
except that an arrangement had been
made for the meeting in response to a
request from MIR. Griscom. The latter
presumably was acting as the rep
resentative of Colonel Roosevelt.
Just what development in the New
York situation caused the request for
q conference with the President at this
time could only be conjectured here to-
day.
Since the Sherman episode and his
statement of his every action in that
matter, President Taft has been dis
posed to keep entirely out of the New
York situation. He had been very re-
luctantly drawn into it in the first
place, and after making his position
clear during the ENHANCEMENT which
following the rundown of Colonel
Roosevelt fr temporary chairman of the
state convention, he felt he could leave
the handling of the Empire States af-
fairs to the, State leaders, including

Word was received in New Haven
this morning that Colonel Roosevelt
had left Oyster Bay by automobile and
that he would stop at Bridgeport on the
way, to New Haven to pick up Mr..
Griscom. Mr.. Barnard Joined the party
here Colonel Roosevelt landed in New
Haven in time for luncheon. The Presi-
dent is due to leave New Haven for

that she spent the other nights at the

WRECKS PATROL
"Pse BOhn linda a Lucky Stah,"
Says Negro When He
Escapes Police.

Use certainly bohn unda a lucky
stah," yelled wild-eyed young negro
as he ran like q scared deer up Eighth
avenue today. 1t was William Folks,
10. of 642 North Sixth street, a pris-
oner, who got away in the excitement
attending the crash of a patrol wagon
in which he was riding with a trolley
car.
There was an unusually light cargo
for a Monday morning when the Fifth
precinct wagon left the police station
this morning. Besides Folks there was
Frank McGregor, 3S. of "a Hunterdon
street. He was charged with disorder
ly conduct. Folks was charged with
assault and battery on Paul Adams, CT

driven by Harry Veit, and Patrolmen
McGlade and Thorn were In charge OF
the prisoners. The van was on its way
to the Second Precinct Court where
Acting Judge Oehrlng was doing out
justice in the absence of Judge Herr.
AS the wagon reached Clifton ave-
nue., eastbound on Eighth avenue, Cliff
ton avenue car 754 in charge of Motor
man John Yeager and Conductor John
o. Southard, came changing along
northbound. Veit whipped UP his horse
in an effort to cross ahead of the car.
The nag balked and the trolley hit the
patrol wagon amidships. spilling the
cargo all over the street, almost wreck
ing the van and shaking up the car full
of passengers.
Patrolman Thorn grabbed McGregor
and took him to the Second precinct,
but McGlade and Veit were nursing
cuts and bruises. and the negro took
advantage of his chance while many
of the trolley car passengers smiled
audibly. The patrol wagon was taken
to a blacksmith's to get a couple of
new rear wheels. Folks is at large still.
In court McGregor was discharged.
Thorn, who was hurt in the smash,
had to go home after court.

EX-GOV. STOKES SAYS HE
WILL LEAD MURPHY BY 5000

TRENTON, Sept. 19.-According to
an estimate made by former Governor
Stokes here today the final returns of
the primary election for expression of
choice for United States senator will
give him at least 1900 votes over
Franklin Murphy and about 1000 over
Charles n. Fowler.
The Essex county returns have been
completed They show that Murphy re-
ceived 1851, Fowler 1924 and Stokes
2,251. The official returns from Passaic
county give Stokes 3,742, Fowler 3,249
and Murphy 2,42s Unofficial returns
from Gloucester county gives Stokes
S,007, Murphy 1856 and Fowler 127.
There is one missing district in
Gloucester, which will give Stokes at
least 1900 for the county.

WHOLESALE VOTE
BUYING BEAT Us" +"
OSBORNE CLAIMS
Progressive Leader Blames
Bribery and Fraudulent Count
by Regulars for Defeat.

Unlimited use of money. bribery
and hostile election officers" are some
of the causes which President Edmund
B. Osborne. of the Progressive Repub-
lican League, in a statement issued to-
day ennmerates in explaining why the
Regulars defeated the Progresslves in
last Tuesdays primaries.
President Osborne makes this state
ment after what he terms careful
analysis of the vote, which he says
shows the Republican Progressive es-
sembly candidates would have had a
plurality of 1000 to 5000 instead of be-
Ing defeated had the vote and the ie-
turns thereof been honest.
This comes right on the eve of the
State convention, which Mr. Osborne
will attend as a delegate, and where he
will name William Z. Martin, the Pro-
gressive candidate for governor, al
though he knows 1t is a forlorn hope.
Only an avalanche, Mr.. Osborne adds,
will overcome the corrupt methods of
the machine, and the Progressives are
preparing for the campaign in 1911 now.
The statement in full follows:
Regular Vote Cut.
"In the primary of 1909 the average
vote cast for the Progressive assembly
candidates was 1906; in 1910 it was
14,274, an increase of 572 and the Regu-
lar majority in 1910 has been reduced
by 25S votes.
This increase of 572 votes, on the
face of the primary returns, by no
means indicates the increased strength
of the Progressive Republicans in Es-
sex county, for an analysis of the re-
turns convinces me that no less than
8, 900 votes cast for Progressive assem-
bly, candidates were thrown out be-
cause of defective marking
There were twenty-four Assembly
candidates names printed on the bal
lots. First came the eleven Regulars
enclosed in a bracket on the right.
Then came the eleven Progressives,
likewise enclosed in a bracket on the
right Then followed the names of
Capps and Kane. AS these were not
bracketed like the other candidates, the
voter, examining the ticket only ca
sually would not suppose that Capps
and Kane were included in the AS
sembly list and would easily overlook
them.
The returns show that thousands of
voters did overlook them in their mark
ing, and thus invalidated their vote
on the Assembly candidates
Fred Baldwin, candidate for super
visor, having no opposition, polled the
full Republican primary vote 35,SS2.
The total average vote cast for AS
sembly candidates was only 81, $50,
which shows that 4,2S2 ballots counted
for supervisor were not counted for the
Assembly. 1t may safely be assumed
that practically all of these 42S2 votes
were lost because of the failure to mark
out the two unbracketed names. In
Montclair alone nearly 800 Assembly
votes were lost for this reason.
We assume that no less than 5000
votes were lost to the Progressive As
sembly candidates through the failure

The Republican vote for Governor
in 1907 for the missing counties was
Gloucester 4,166; Ocean, 2.502, and
Monmouth, 1872. Should Stokes make
as good a showing in Gloucester as
he did in his home county of Cumber-
land and break even in Ocean and
Monmouth he would overcome Fowl
er's lead of 1,737 and be high man at
the finish.
Friends of Fowler claim he will make
heavy gains in both Ocean and Mon
mouth, and if he does he will continue
in the lead. There are others who de-
clare that Murphy's vote in Monmouth
will be sufficient to overcome the 96S
lead Fowler has on him now and make
the Essex aspirant high man.
