Not Seen for Thirty Years.

John Joseph Rice, of loo Inslee place,

and Harrison looking for two brothers
and two sisters that he has not heard
from since the Rice family was broken
up, n number of years ago. John
Joseph Rice was placed in the Snake
Hill Almshouse when he was 6 years
of age, That was thirty years ago.
Since that time he has not heard OF
any Of his relatives.
Detective Sergeant John ]. McCon-
nell, Of police headquarters. knew the
Rice family well n went to school

tiers, Jane and Mary Rice, but has list
all track of them.

family broke up Barclay Rice went to
the bad, and was shot TO death ten or

ing q barrel of beer. Sidney Rice vas
in Paterson about two years ago. 1

DR.. BARTON-OPIz
SUPPORTS CHARGE
OF LAWLESSNESS
Physician Says That Hacken-
sack Officers Are Remiss
in Enforcing Statues.

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-Dr. r. Bur-
and Surgeons of Columbia University,
who was once recorder at Fort Lee,
n. J., has added his voice to the dis
pute which has arisen over the recent
charges made by the Rev. E. A. Mont
gomery, of Tenatiy, against the prose-
cutor of the Common Pleas at Hacken-
sack. DIR. Burton-Opitz has written an
open letter, saying that three prisoners
sentenced in his court were liberated
the next day, and that he never could
get a satisfactory explanation from the
sheriff of the county or the prosecutor.
"On June 3, 1910, three prisoners were
brought before me-" he says. One of
these admitted petit larceny. He stood
convicted OF Yagrancy and disorderly
conduct M was sentenced by me to a
term of thirty days in the county jail.
It was his third arrest. The other w
prisoners I sentenced to periods of
seven and three days in the county jail
fer vagrancy and disorderly conduct.
1t appears that my court was in this
case the court of last redress, n as
the papers were all carefully made out
] had no reason to suppose that my
judgments would not hold good.
Hears of Return of Men.
Ito my CONSERVATION / was told on
the day following that the prisoners
were again in the village in which they
had been arrested. 1 Immediately in
terviewed the keeper of the Jail and
sheriff of the county and asked the lat
ter to explain the disappearance of my
prisoners. To my question: BY whose
authority have these men been liber-
ated?' / received the answer: Very
likely, by order of the court Subse-
uuently the keeper told me that men
of his type always carried a good sup
ply of insects about them, that much
time was consumed in cleaning the
cells after their release, and that they
were q great expense to the county.
This undoubtedly is true, but In my
estimation cannot be regarded as a rea-
son of sufficient legal weight to disre-
gard the judgment of the minor court.
/ addressed "a letter to the prosecutor
of the common please asking for an
explanation. No answer was received.
] met the prosecutor subsequently in
person, and making reference to my
query of an earlier date, was told that
the sheriff had no right to free these
prisoners"
The Rev. E. A. Montgomery, who
made the original charges, has been
called on to answer a charge of con-
tempt of court. 1t has been learned
that on Saturday night a number or
leading residents of Tenafiy n Engle-
wood held a meeting at which 1t was
resolved to stand behind the minister.
At this meeting it was decided that any
enpense he was put to in he way of
counsel fees should be subscribed by
those present at the meeting.

NEWARKER BEGINS
CERTIORAR ACTION.
VIII Test Validity of His Con-
yictiOn.

TRENTON, Feb. 13.-John Dunn, OF
Newark, has instituted certiorari pro-
ceedings in the Supreme Court, carry
Jig up for review the validity of the
proceedings under which he was ar
rested and convicted last Wednesday
on a complaint charging him with I'M
lawfully tormenting n abusing two
horses.
According to the papers filed here 1t
is shown hat Dunn was a driver for
the Merchants Express Company, which
carries on an express business between
New York and Newark. The arrest, 1t
appears, was made on behalf OF the
New Jersey Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals. by Lewis c.
Teed. one of its agents.
After the arrest of Dunn he was
taken before Justice of the Peace r.
F. Hopwood and fined $25. Dunn
claims that although he was arrested
at 8 O'Clock in the afternoon he was
detained until s o'clock that night,
when he was taken to the county Jail,
where he remained three hours, when
the fine was paid.
The certiorari proceedings are
brought on the ground that the justice
Of the peace was without jurisdiction
to impose a fine in a case OF that char
acter.
