EXCISE BOARD STICKS TO
BAN ON SALOON LICENSES.
No More Liquor Places Will Be
Allowed in Orange.

Informed that IL would be useless for
him to seek an application for a trans
fer of a saloon license in the neighbor-
hood named. John Casey, of Main
street, Orange, withdrew his applica-
ton for the grant at the meeting of
the Orange Board of Excise last night.
II was emphatically stated by the
members of the board that they would
not under any conditions permit an
other saloon between Day and Centre
streets, in Main street.
Mr.. Casey sought to go across Main
street from his present saloon. He was
granted a renewal of his present
license. it Is a ruling of the board
thai no mors> saloons will be allowed in
the city, and it is for this reason that
the board refused his transfer.
Several saloon-keepers in the city
were before the board, as it was
learned by the members that they were
engaged in other business enterprises.
They were given to understand that
the board will not tolerate n saloon
keepers being engaged In other oceu-
pations, and it was limited that should
the board learn that the men are en-
gagged in other work their licenses will
be revoked.
Most of the men denied having other
business affairs to attend to, and they
were anxious to learn from what
sources the rumors emenated. Lawrence
Martucei, of 81 Joyce street, whose
license at "a Joyce street expires on
July 20. was informed he will not be
given a renewal.

TICKET IS
SHAPING ITSELF
IN SOUTH ORANGE
Trustee McDonough's Friends
Confer on Slate to Oppose
Other Parties.

Adding to the excitement in the
South Orange political situation, a
formidable third ticket Is rapidly shap-
ing itself, with Trustee John F. Nc
Donough as the head of the affair, and
a conference last night of well-known
men of the village will probably re-
suit in a formal announcement in a few
days. of the new alignment for the cleo
ton. The indignation in certain quar-
tiers over the. rejection of Mr.. Nc
Donough by the Peoples party On
Thursday night brought many assur-
ances of support, Mr.. McDonough said
last night, and in addition a large
group of admirers who have watched
with keen interest Mr.. McDonoughs
two years in office have ssure him
they would be glad to support his can
didacy.
81 am not in a position to say WHAT
will be done at this time, u In a rev
days there may be something OF interest,"
to say about this third ticket" said
Mr.. McDonough. Many men OF the
Citizens and Peoples parties, men Of
the better elements in both, ave as
sured me of support, and this Is very
gratifying"
Twill you stand on the new tlcke'
for PRESIDENT" Mr.. McDonough was
asked.
ooh, no. came the reply. II would
be a candidate for my present position
as trustee"
If the plans laid by some of Mr.. Me-
Donough's friends are carried out there
is little doubt that the third ticket
will cut a big figure in drawing votes
from both the Peoples and Citizens
tickets. The slate talked of includes
men on both of the tickets already
named. Francis Spier, jr., who has
| been chosen as candidate for the presl-
dency by the Citizens party; Tom C.
| Watkins, a trustee nominee of the
Peoples faction, and John j. Magovern,
whom the Citizens have asked to be a
candidate on several occasions, are said
to be slated, with Trustee McDonough
as the fourth man.

OF DIVORCE ON
. POVERTY GROUND
East Orange Woman Told by
New York Judge to Make
Up With Husband. 1

That poverty is rot a ground forsdi-
voice was the decision yesterday of
Justice Newberber, n1New York, when
Mrs. Laura Deas Wadsworth, who is
a resident of East Orange, and her
husband. Gerald p. Wadsworth, sought
separation.
Take your clients back to theih
home and have them make up" said
the court to the attorneys.

Genesee county family of that name
and Mrs. Wadsworth is the daughter
of j. r. p. Deas, of the Butchers and
Drovers' Bank, and a resident of Ap-
lington avenue ncrth, East Orange.
Both had asked for a separation.
Four years after their marriage, in
1904, Mr.. Wad~-"or'h failed in business
and wal obliged to leave the apart
ment they had occupied since their
marriage and move into a furnished
room. After n night in the furnished
room Mrs. Wadsworth went to her
fathers home in East Orange.
Mr.. Wadsworth testified that he for
warded to his wife a weekly sum, but
as she refused to return to live with
him he brought suit for abandonment.
Then Mrs. Wadsworth filed a counter
suit for a separation on the ground
that her husband had failed to support
her since June, 1910.
When Justice Newberger learned that
1t was only a few weeks that the hus-
band had failed to send her the week.
ly amount he could afford he said:
Il will not grant a decree on such
evidence. I urge the lawyers TO take
their clients to their home and make
an effort to bring them together. Both
complaints are dismissed."4
