BOYS REAP RICH
HARVEST IN SALE
OF STOLEN DOGS
Kearny Police Making Efforts to
Stop Traffic-Many
Missing CANNES.

Dogs sold to a Kearny rendering
plant after being stolen from owners
in that town, in Harrison and other
places are giving the police Of Kearny
some concern, and an effort is being
made to stop the traffic. While inves-
tigating a case in the neighborhood
of the rendering establishment referred
to, Chief Of Police William Tolen and
Detective Sci geant Walter Oliver, of
Kearny, saw a boy hurrying to the
rendering place with a dog. On his
return they questioned the lad n he
said that he mad just sold the animal
for 10 cents after picking 1t up in Har-
rison.
The police officials found, it is alleged,
that boys were being urged by the
rendering plant owners to get dogs
for them, no matter from what source
For a small or skinny animal 10 cents
Is paid, but % cents apiece is allowed
for CANNES that are plump or large.
The boy said that he and many of
his companions made a good deal Of
money carrying or Turing dogs to the
rendering establishment. The police
have heard many complaints about
dogs, some OF them of much value, be-
ing stolen, but have been unable to
catch the thieves or learn where the
animals went.
One rendering establishment is also
the public pound of Kearny, but it is
not clear hat the owners a been
offending in the sense referred to. They
get 81 from the town for every dog de-
stroyed by them after the animals nave
been counted by the police, and in addi-
ton they may keep the cdrcasses. An
investigation is being made, and If the
owners are proved to have "rung in"
dogs not found IN Kearny streets or to
have encouraged boys to steal dogs the
town authorities will proceed against
them.

RESIGNATION. OF
REV. DR.. BRADFORD
TO Be ACCEPTED
MOntclair Congregation Will Ac-
cede to Request of Ven.
cradle Clergyman.

The congregation of the First Con-
sregatlonal Church, Montclair, Will
meet tonight IN Wilde Memorial Chapel.
adjoining the church, to act upon the
resignation of the Rev. DIR. Amory Fl
Bradford, who on account of il-health
has rendered his resignation. The resig-
nation will, no doubt, be accepted. as II
is DR.. Bradford's wish.
About a year ago DIR. Bradford first
sent his resignation to the trustees OF
h church, in which he said that his
health was such that he could not at
tend to his pastoral duties. The con-
%gregation was Ioath to accept tho
resignation of the ma who had built
up the church from a mere handful of
members to one of the largest and
most influential In this It
was then decided TO engage a new pas
tor, to whom the full salary of $4,000 a
year would be paid, but that DIR. Brad
ford would still remain head pastor
while he lived, the new pastor to take
complete charge of the church on the
death of DR.. Bradford. In the mean
time DR.. Bradford was to enjoy the use
of the parsonage on Plymouth street
and be paid q salary of $500 a year as
long as he lived.
In addition the church agreed to pay
the yearly premium on a policy of in.
surance for $4,000 on the life of DR..
Bradford, which Is payable to his heirs.
This arrangement was acceptable to
DR.. Bradford and a committee of ff-
teen was chosen to select a new pastor.
After searching for nearly a year. the
--zR- f.
ton that 1t was unable to make any
recommendation, stating that the
church must have the best clergyman
obtainable, and the committee asked
for more time. Believing that the com
mittee was handicapped in the selec-
ton of a pastor by the fact that DR..
Bradford would still be the head of
the church and hat the new pastor
would be only second to him. DR.. Brad
fore placed his resignation again in the
hands of the trustees, requesting its
acceptance so that the committee would
be untrammeled in making a selection.
The church will carry out the pro
vision made for DR.. Bradford during
his life and he will be relieved from
all responsibility of the parish. DIR.
Bradford has been the only pastor the
church has had since its organization,
nearly forty-one years age. and the
church has been DR.. Bradford's only
passionate.
He was born at CRANKY, Oswego
county. N. Y, in 1886, and is a son OF
the late Rev. B. r. Bradford His
mother was Mary A. Howe. Both par
ents came from New England stock,
DR.. Bradford being the ninth In direct
line from William Bradford, second
Governor of the colony Of Plymouth,
and a passenger on the Mayfiower. DR..
Bradford was graduated from Hamilton
College in 1887, and from the Andover
Theological Seminary in 1870, with the
degree of doctor Of divinity. Later he
took a postgraduate course at the Uni
versity of oxford, England. He was
called from the Andover Seminary to
his present charge.

somewhat as u result. It has been
necessary to engage from time to time
one substitute to take the place of alb
sent teachers in several schools.
1T recently became possible to Sc
cure assistance in the lowest primary
departments, where the loss has been
most seriously eelt, by engaging con-
ditionally the services of Miss Alice

HEALTH INSPECTOR TO
WEAR A REAL UNIFORM

make Inspector keenan, a more digni-
fled official than he is without such
regalia?l This was PaIardy's question.
He thought q uniform would at least
have the effect of placing fear into the
hearts of persons who, otherwise,
might want to ignore the mandates of
the inspector.
President Pringle believed Palardy's
idea a good one, but he did not favor
the board paying for the outfit. The
commissioners. after much argument,
have finally decided to purchase the
cap themselves and have the inspector
procure his own uniform. Mr.. keenan,
has a cap that is said to resemble that
worn by the conductor of the first train
that ever operated in America.

MAYOR GREGORY
URGES REFORMS
IN FIRST MESSAGE
East Orange Executive Wants
Power to Remove Officials
Without Charges.

Mayor Julian A. Gregory, of East
Orange, sent his first message to the
City Council last night. He recon-
mended an amendment to the city
charter to provide for reforms. He
asked that he be given power to re-
move any city officer without charges.
The officer, however, according to the
mayors idea, could be given a hearing
before the Council, n a majority vote
of that body would be necessary to
sustain him in office.
The recent deadlock over the election
Of q chairman of the council is the
cause for the recommendation that q
member of the City Council be elected
at large. besides the representatives of
the different wards. Other remedies
are suggested. but this one the Mayor
believes is the most feasible.
The appointment of two additional
assessors is recommended, or else the
appointment of n assessor n a
clerk to have charge of the records.
The collection of all the city ordinances
and their publication in book form Is
advocated and that included in II
should be a u of he city charter,
with it's. amendments and all laws per-
aiming TO the commissions and Yari-
Gus branches of the city. government.
The Mayor declares that there is not
enough cooperation between the vari-
u departments and commissions and
deplores the fact that the control and
regulation of the fire and water de-
partments and the management of the
Fairgrounds and the city's a trees
are vested in commissions, whose only
on the City Council Is for
appropriations. 1t is suggested that
the heads of various departments and
commissions confer with the Mayor at
certain stated intervals with a view to
making the work more harmonious.
