FIGHT FOR MEN
SHERIFF 0UsTED

A legal fight will be made to rein
state James E. Delaney and Charles
Reilly, who were suspended from the
she riffs office by Sheriff Monahan.
This action was decided upon at a
of the directors of the Essex
Council of the New Jersey Service As
ISOLATION yesterday in the City Hall.
Former Sheriff Frank FL. Sommer will
represent the association.
In the Harrigan term Delaney had
acted as private secretary and Reilly
an under-sheriff. Both were sus-
pended by Sheriff Monahan, who ap-
pointed j. d. Spillane as private Sec
rotary and James II. Hyland as first
deputy sheriff. The contention Of the
new sheriff is that under the law he
did not remove them to make room for
the new men, but when he made his
own confidential appointments, which
he is entitled to, the services of
Reilly and Delaney were s~uperfluous.
The two deposed men are placed at
the head Of the list of eligibles for the
next appointment.

Less money. more owe, fewer dia-
monds, more hearts. empty houses in
Reno. divorce experts looking for jobs
and newspapers nosing for news.
When?
AS soon as some husbands realize
that wives don't enjoy running a poor
second to the excellent first of BUSH
ness interests. AS soon as they wake
up to the fact that as surely as a GER
tain gentleman of the lower strata of
society finds mischief for idle hands
to do so surely do certain men find
sympathy n endearing words for the
pretty, neglected wives of up-to-date
business machines.
A pathetic story of a domestic wreck
comes from Pittsburg. 1t attracts at
tention because the written confession
of the wife is evidence in the divorce
case. The wife. Josephine E. Christ
mann, admits that she has been I'M
faithful gto her marriage vows; that
she has oten smoked cigarettes. has
often deceived her husband, and has
associated with men and women of
whom she knew her husband dis
approved.
