PROTESTS TO CHAIRMAN
OF COUNTY COMMITTEE.

George F. Dressler, Republican coun-
fy committeeman Of the Second district,
Third ward, of Irvington, has filed a
protest with the chairman, Alfred N.
Dalrymple, against the action of Jonah
Hardgrove, who, he claims, as chair
mar of the Republican central COM
mittee, called a hurried meeting last
Tuesday night, and with only three
county committeeman present out OF
ten held an election. which resulted in
the selection Of Recorder w. Eugene
Turton as the new chairman.
Dressler declares that he reached
Glorieux Hall, where the meeting was
scheduled to be held, at ten minutes
after eight o'clock, and was told by
Hardgrove that the election had been
held promptly at 8 o'clock. DRESSER
further maintains that this meeting
should not have beer held on the last
night of registration. and is irregular,
because the chairman did not receive
q majority vote of the total member
ship of the local county committee.
The matter will be taken UP at the
meeting of the Essex County Commit
tee tomorrow night.

THREE BATTALION
CHIEFS TAKE c. s.
EXAM FOR DEPUTY
Robert F. Morgan, Who De-
clined Physical Tests, May
Still Take Them.

Paul j. Moore, Matthew P. A. Nc
Dermitt and John It. Towey, battalion
chiefs of the Newark fire department,
are taking d civil service examination
at the City Hall today for promotion
to the post of deputy chief. There are
six battalion chiefs in the department,
but one of them, Herman Schweick-
hardt, is ineligible under the law to
seek promotion because he has not
held his present place for one year.
The other two, Robert r. Morgan and
William Exall, efused to pass the
physical tests recently given. Mr.. Nor
gan Is to be re-examined because he is
OF the opinion that a mistake has been
made.
In the tests today the candidates
have to answer five papers. as follows:
Experience, practical administrative
duties, laws and ordinances, depart
ment rules and regulations, and then
make out a.. written report from a set
of facts submitted TO them.
Because of the Importance of the ex-
animation the whole civil service board,
including the president, DR.. Willis
Fletcher Johnson, of New Providence;
Colonel James r. Mullikin, in charge
of the Newark office; Charles Bateman,
of Somerville, and Joseph Hopf, of
Princeton, are present.
Colonel Mullikin talked briefly 10 the
men before the examination began. He
said that the office of deputy chief
should be filled by a man possessing
courage. skill, physical ability and
mental equipment of a high ORDER and
told them that the examination was in
tended to determine, as far as possible,
who was best fitted for the post. Con-
tinuing, he said, that neither fear,
favor or affection will have any weight
in determining your relative standing
before the Civil Service Commission.
It's members are immune to the pleas
of politics, religion or friendship, and 1t
depends solely upon your showing here
what your status will be when your pa
pers are rated by the commission"
The colonel then took up recent criti-
cisms of civil service and said that any
statement hat the city fire force had
its efficiency impaired BY civil service
was untrue in every respect, and that
the other criticisms were wholly I'M
warranted.

Kids Get Busy, Tear Down

along Boyden street and saw a small

have it done then 1t is finished"
When all this was said lin French,
German and Asiatie) the boys, a score
or two in number, did as directed, and
there you are,
But before they did as directed sew
eral things happened: The gamins first
went home and told their relatives
male and female, to be on hand Tor
the shingles, srafters and beams that
they would fire down to them. The
relatives came. Well. when Tony fired
a single on Antoinette's head 1t was
Just where she wanted It, but once or
twice the kids pitched regular fade
aways and the shingles, or beams,
would fall on The head of the sister OF
Jefferson Washington Lee. That, OF
course, was Just where she did not
want it. 1t was the signal, therefore,
for little jefferson to grab Tony by the
collar and have a gentlemanly dispute
over the incident. And, according TO
report, there were a number of gen
tlemanly disputes.
However, the house was RACED, no
one was killed, and every fireplace in
Boyden street is sure Of enough wood
to last until the next house gets too
old for habitation.

An this came to light today, although
it happened last Saturday. AT that
