prietor of the Morristown Jersey

the time in Washington He has
taken a great interest in fire depart
ment affairs while in Morristown and
on several occasions has been the
guest of one of the local companies
of vamps on visits to the departments
of other cities This interest is
doubtless the result Of his having

burn, N. Y, department and in 1858
and 1859 belonged to Washington En-

WEST JURY SAYS GUILTY
Return Verdict After Half Hours De
liberation on Monday.

ifbCTdLon VII fNo0udY.
After celebrating only a half hour
the jury in the trial of John Il. West,
of Hanover, for forgery, brought in
verdict of guilty Monday afternoon.
The case has been on trial before
Judge Alfred Elmer Mills since
Wednesday. Prosecutor Charles A.
Rathbun represented the state and
Charles Stilwell, jr., the defendant.
West was charged with forging the
name of Peter Darnelius, of Hanover,
to check on the Morristown Trust
Co. for $3.50. This Is the second
time he has been on trial ON this
charge, the first trial, held two weeks
ago, resulting in a disagreement by
the jury.
Vests case first came to the at
tention of the authorities in January
when the grand jury heard of it but
found no Indictment. West. who is
a constable and for several yeras has
served as court officer, then brought
suit for damages against Darnelius for
slander before Judge Oliver x. Day
in the First District court. He lost
this case and the evidence there pre-
sented led Prosecutor Rathbun to
again bring the case to the attention
of the grand jury setting in May,
the latter bringing in an indictment.

FIRE WARDENS
ARE APPOINTED
William Lindsay to Have Charge
of Morris County District

Under authority of an act passed
last winter, the State Forestry COM
mission has appointed four assistant
state fire wardens, as follows: Will
lam Lindsay, Elizabeth; Frederick C.
TORY, Lakehurst Joseph E. Abbott,
Mesco, and Leonidas Coyle, Bridge
as division wardens and each one will
be assigned to separate district
The selections were made from the
thirteen candidates who passed the
recent civil service examination.
Mr.. Lindsay will have supervision
of Division A, which includes Essex,
Bergen, Passaic, Sussex, Warren,
Morris, Hudson, Union, Somerset and
Hunterdon counties and so much of
Middlesex as lies north of the Raritan
river. The headquarters of this divi-
sion will be at Dover.
Each of the division wardens will
be required to devote his whole time
to his duties. The salary is 5000 a
year and field expenses. The work
of the district wardens will be 70
organize, instruct and direct the local
fire wardens in each division, to look
after violators and to enforce more
rigidly the forest fire law in general.
The Forestry commission has con-
Guided an agreement with the secre-
tary of the United States Department
of agriculture by which $1,000 from
lection of forests against fire will be
placed at its disposal This money
will be expended entirely in North
Jersey and will be used exclusively
for the maintenance of fire patrols.
The commission will place on duty
a half-dozen men or more when the
weather is unusually dry, at the open,
ing of the hunting season or at other
periods when there is particular dam
ger of forest fires. The patrol will
probably be selected from the force
of local fire wardens, other men be-
ing drawn for their places while they
are actually in the service.
Although there were a number oi
forest fires in the spring, due to
some extent to the exceptionally dry
weather, reports received by the com
mission show that only few have
been serious. The organization oi
fire wardens, according to the view
of the commission, is showing
strength and still further efficiency
! is expected from it.

the ball over the score board in rigat

the ball under meath the target for
two bases. Swenson then came acros
with the second hit of the game, d1'i
ing a fast one over third base SEQ
ing Ahles. Vogt made a terrible
heave to the plate in belated effo
to catch Ahles and after Dunn had r.
trieved the ball Swenson. too. had
scored.

WILSON ON LAWYERS
Says Attorneys Have Lowered Pro-
fession to Business Basis.


In speech before the New Jer-
sey Bar association Governor Wood
row Wilson paid his respects to the
lawyers of the state. He said in
part
at is true that the legal profession
as a profession does not enjoy The
care of the people. | am surprised,
and | must say, disappointed, that
the legal profession of this country
has not undergone the same change
and liberaliIng that has character
lied it's progress in other countries.
You are too technical. You are spe-
ciahsts along narrow lines. Yor are
business men on strictly legal lines.
"The community no longer regards
you as legal guides You have with
drawn from craftsmanship and low
cred the profession to Il strictly busi-
ness basis
1.-THE ambush of teGhnicalities you
have drawn around the corporations
make it necessary to enact drastic
legislation to tear away the shell and
get at the heart.
'"rhe profession in the foreign roun-
tries has advanced ahead of yoB be-
cause they have simplified, torn away
the covering of technic9lities.
"If you want to restore your pro
fession to the care OF the people,
you can do it in a single year by
following the method of simplicity,
the change can be wrought, but il it
is wrought without your support and
assistance, it will be wrought to your
disadvantage"
