jured Animal
How to relieve the sufferines of a
wounded deer and yet keep within
the provisions of the law which pro.
vides fine of $500 for shooting or
having a deer in ones possession, was
the problem S. p c. A. Agent James
E. Welsh had 70 face Friday night.
A deer wandered along Kemble
mountain and near John Green's
place on Mt Kemble avenue collided
with fence and broke a leg. Mr..
Green did not care to take any chance
with the law so he notified Mr.. Welsh
The latter took advice from his
counsel, Willard W. Cutler, and noti-
fled Game Warden Smith, of Nolan 5
Point, of the deer's plight.
Smith sent a deputy warden from
Bernardsville to the scene and the
deer was put out of its misery.

WILL SURELY REPAvE
Morris Street and specdweIl Avenue
to Receive Attention.


Morris street and SpeedwelI avenue
are to be repayed as soon as the Nor
ris County Traction Co. finishes lay
ing its tracks on those thoroughfares
in the Spring. Michael P. Norris.
chairman Of the road committee of
the board of freeholders, has an
nounced that the money for the pur-
pose is at hand and the work will be
done as soon as possible
These two streets are county roads
and the county will repave them
Possibly, after their repair. they may
be turned over to Morristown for
maintenance. The trolley company
has to double-track its line on both
streets.
Just what paving will be used has
not yet been decided but Mr.. Norris
says there will be no experimenting
Whatever is used will be something
that has been found to withstand the
heavy traffic these two streets have
to bear. Speedwell avenue will prob
ably be paved with brick.
Memorial hospital is on Morris
street and there is some question
whether the use of brick in front OF
the hospital would disturb the pa
tients. 1t is thought that with the
wide space around the hospital build
ing and the distance of the building
from the curb line that the noise
would not be troublesome ii brick
We're used.

The Rev. Ralph B. Urmy was toast
master. He asserted it to be worthy
of appreciation that at least one insti-
tuition of the town was interested
enough to keep alive the memory OF
Abraham Lincoln. When Dr. Urmy
said that he did not know the CON
nection between the Tapkaow club,
named after an Indian CHIEF and Lin
coin, unless it was because Lincoln
served as an officer during the Black
Hawk war, there was a ripple of
amusement.
1t is well to give honor to this
type of American manhood, whose life
is an ideal for all men," said DR..
Urmy, ''and it is a splendid thing for
this organization to meet year, after
year and be enobled by thoughts of
the deeds this man accomplished"
In introducing the Rev. William
Russell Bennett as the next. speaker
DIR. Urmy called him William the
First, alluding to the fact that Mr.
Bennett is the dean of the Morristown
clergymen.
There ought to be a stronger i'm
press made upon the community and
the country because of the person
atty of Abraham Lincoln, with his
character and spirit, a personality
that is source of inspiration" said
Mr.. Bennett.
D Have the times given us another
Lincoln? Yet / believe his spirit has
entered into the lives of many men,
making himself felt in the world of
to-day"
Asserting Lincoln to be grand.
square and upright, like a sign in a
piano store. he had once seen, Mr..
Bennett said he was grand because
of his greatness of soul; justice was
cardinal article OF his creed but not
of coldJblooded judgment but rather of
sympathy, his conscience sounded
notes that clearly tend toward the
uprightness of all men.
For eight years have been in
contact with Morristown men and
again and again / have heard notes
of manhood and manliness struck"
