Four Years Of Real JOY.

Germany has added another to its
fist of distinctions. 1t has produced
the perfect truant. A boy of Dortmund
was transferred from one school to
another; he found out that his name
was not entered on the register That
was four years ago. Since then he
has gone from home every morning
with his bag Of school books, and
each evening at the appointed hour he
has returned. 1t has now been dis
covered that the new school has never
seen him, and that he has had four
years Of vagabondage.

Cows Tried for Murder.

Old documents OF the middle ages
tell US OF numerous cases where ami
mails were put on trial for serious OF.
lenses charged against them. For ex-
ample, in 1870 three cows were tried
for having killed a boy; the whole
herd were arrested as accomplices.
All were discharged but the guilty
three, these being condemned to be
executed. The sentence was pro-
nounced by the duke OF Burgundy

Got Neatly Over Difficulty.

The mayor of French town had, in
accordance with the regulations, to
make out a passport for a rich and
highly respectable lady of his &C
quaintance, who, in spite of a slight
Disagreement, was very vain of her
personal appearance. His native po-
likeness prompted him to gloss over
the defect, and, after a moments
reflection, he wrote among the items
of personal description: Eyes dark.
beautiful, tender, expressive, but one

Canned Swear Words.

Another vocal trouble comes from
Hungary. There a gramophcne deal
er has been 80 annoyed by the sing
ing Of the girls In a dressmaker's
workshop that adjoined his room that
he filled one of his instruments with
swear words and set 1t to work when
the girls were all assembled at their
labors. The defense that he was only
testing new records" did not save
him from having to pay damages. He
would have found It cheaper to buy q

High Prices for OLD Furniture.

People who dislike to part with
their old furniture may derive en-
couragement as TO the increasing
value Of such possessions from a re-
cent auction sale IN France, at which
an old sofa and four chairs brought
$4,000. The set, however, was COW
cred with Gobelin tapestry of the Pc
Rod Of the Regency. and probably
cost a goodly sum even when new.
At the same sale a string Of pearls
brought s93, 1000.

Ancient Game of Tennis.

Tennis is the game n kings. The
Oldest of existing ball games-it is
mentioned in the Arthurian romances
tennis was originally the pastime OF
the kings and mobiles and 1t was long
before its descendant-lawn tennis
became popular with all classes. The
game reached England from France
and Italy, and by the time Of Henry
VII we find a royal tennis court at
Windsor. Henry VIII was an expert
at the game.

Medinetz as Joseph Brooks" and
Miss Wilentz as Emma Brooks" his
wife, in a discussion and argument
over their poverty. Mr.. Brooks is
disconnected because he is unable TO
live a life more gay and not one so
democratic, but still p~ersistently re-
fuses all invitations for his wife and
himself to accept a treat from Jim
sey' and other friends to attend a
show. Finally he foolishly decides in
his rawlings to take his wife to the
theatre and on money which was en-
trusted to him by his employer.
The second act shows the Brooks
family living in elaborate apartments
in a hotel, although the head of the
family is still earning no more than
SIS per week. He explains to his
wife and others in the family that
he is able to live as-an -aristocrat
hereafter since he was given a more
responsible position, an increase in
salary, and six months of back pay
by his employer, Captain Williams
who with "Jimsey'' was on a trip Of
a few months. His conscience trou-
bled him but the fact that he was
stealing the money to live in an ex-
orbitant manner did not bother him
enough to reveal the facts to his
wife, who believed and loved her
husband.
The next scene shows "Jimsey"
after returning from his trip, ex-
planning to the folks of his expert
ences. He tells Brooks" when all
others are out of the that will
liams" has learned of his robbery.
Williams soon enters with Mrs.
Brooks" Mrs. Harris and Beth
Harris" and nothing is mentioned by
the captain of the "Brooks's" charge.
Finally Brooks loses his courage and
explains his position to his wife, who
is shocked and weakened by the dis
closure. She loses faith in her hus-
band but decides to attempt to save
him from a jail term. p
In the next act the real crisis OF
the plot occurs when Captain Will
liams's'" tone of decency is sounded
by saving Brooks from being impris-
oned because he respects a good
woman, one like Emma Brooks
who came to him to plead for her
husband, who had committed an in
excusable crime and still had nothing
to offer as a plea for clemency. The
respect of the captain towards the
wife of the thief gives Brooks a doc
ument which frees him from the
charge of robbing his employer,
Captain Williams" of $4,000,
which he actually took.
In the final scene Mrs Brooks
presents her husband with the paper
so valuable to him and then goes to
live with her mother, having lost all
love for her husband because of the
degraded character he has proven.
And SO the Y. M. II. A. play passed
into history. The young ladies of
the cast were presented with bou-
quets of flowers during the evening.
Everything was arranged in an
excellent manner, not a hitch being
caused at any time, and for this
much praise is given the following,
who comprised the arrangement COM

Max Kreielsheimer, Marcus o. Saro-

Oscar Strauss Views.
Oscar Straus, for instance. comment
ed on the aim of the Washington con
ference of the twelve Republican and
Progressive governors:
1.-THE only way to reconstruct the
Republican party is through the Pro
gress.ve party. The latter alone en-
bodies the spirit of Lincoln L Lin
coin Republicanism. Our aim Is to
get rid of the bosses and come back to
the people. The Progressive policies
are the broad highway along which
the Republican party must come back.
II 1t m at ALL"
Mr.. Munsey said uniication of the
Republican party would prove to be
a big task.
"Do you think the Progressives
would receive overtures from the old
party?" Mr.. Munsey was asked.
"Well," he conceded, 9TH ere is no
reason that we should not be gracious
to those who do us a favor. No one
wants to spurn anything that comes
freely unless it's q burden"
Mr.. Munsey phrased In this manner
the purpose of this weeks roundup at
Chicago. which set out to he a party
conference, but virtually will be a na
tional convention.
"The intention Is to discuss way
and means of developing the party. Of
solidifying the organization and of lay
Ing plans for future campaigns" he
said.
Everett Colby Of New Jersey thought
1t would be demonstrated at Chicago
that the Irogressives were not a one
man party.
"We expect to appoint committees to
cove every phase of the Progressive
program" Mr.. Colby said. THE COM
mittees will begin work right away
and will push our propaganda until 1t
becomes law"

Matawan, Dec. 9:-One of the
boldest robberies ever committed in
Matawan took place here Friday
night or early Saturday morning.
Rev. c. H. Bruce and family, who
are occupying the Ryer homestead
until the repairs at the Presbyterian
parsonage are completed, were sur
prised Saturday morning to find a
window and doors in the lower part
of the house wide open. Upon exam
nation it was found that Mr.. Bruce's
new winter overcoat was missing,
also about IS in money and 81 worth
of stamps from Mr.. Bruce's desk.
Upon further examination the discov-
cry was made that the thief had been
in the sleeping rooms, but had taken
nothing, although s~ilverware was in
plain evidence. 1t was evident that
the robber only desired money.
During the same night robbers also
broke into the residence of Charles
Carmen in Main street and took over
50. In this case also the money was
taken from the dining and
nothing else disturbed. At present
no one has been arrested.
