is supreme folly to attempt to find
happiness by taking the shortcut
across the laws of life There is but
one end to all these endeavors. They
all end in tragedy"
The reason there is so much sor-
row, regret, pain, unkindness. unself-
ishness in tae world is because we
are all taking the short cuts across
the laws Of life, the physical. NOR
al. social and political laws. And
the great trouble is that we shut
our eyes to the tragedy, though we
are pretty certain to know It Is here.
The Happy man does not cut across
lots. He goes around in the natural
and ordinary way, and accepts Gods
bounty without trying to steal it.

TORRANCE SLATED
TO SUCCEED BROCK
Councilman Appears to Have
Field to Himself for May
orally Honors.

With the vacation season now on
the wane, things political in Kearny
are assuming definite shape, Many
surprises are expected between now
and the primaries.
Mayor Louis NJ. Brock is said to
be anxious to get in the running for
the office of congressman from the
district. He is a Republican. Rumor,
however. has it that Assistant Pros
ecutor James Mccarthy will be the
G.. o. P. nominee.
Councilman Robert Torrance, of the
Second ward, 1t is practically agreed,
will be the next mayor of Kearny.
His RECORD In the council is a good
one. He is decidedly popular and
undoubtedly will corral a number of
Democratic votes in the town. The
term of the present mayor does not
expire until January l, 1914. The
term of Torrance, as councilman, will
expire at that time.
In the First ward the present in
cumbent, Hugh Wilkie, will proba-
bly, not seek reelection to the coun-
Gil. He aspires to become a mem
Der of the new freebooter board.
Health Commissioner Nevin Kennedy
is being doomed as a councilmanic
candidate to succeed Wilkie. Mr..
Kennedy is a Republican, and many
years of faithful service in the
Health Board will prove a valuable
assert to him, his friends say. On the
Democratic side of the fence George
Mageean and John Sullivan are the
councilmanic aspirants. Sullivan has
made several tries. Magician, a
young man and popular. will make
his initial bow. His friends declare
he will be elected.
McAteer Seeks Reelection.
In the Second ward Councilman
James j. McAteer, Democrat, will
likely seek to succeed himself. Health
Commissioner Louis Hartung and
former Councilman David Ref, both
Republicans, are spoken of as prob
able candidates for the office of
councilman.
A spirited contest is anticipated in
the Republican ranks in the Third
ward for the Office now held by
Councilman Daniel d. Bryan. The
present incumbent will again seek
iiC OiuNC, anu liz II SaiV u nave liIc
backing of Mayor Brock. Frank
Odendahl, president of the Kearny
Board of Health, who has made a
good record, will seek the nomina-
ton. The third candidate is John
Cameron, who is popular in the ward.
The Democrats have not, as yet, set
tied on any one.
In the Fourth ward Councilman AL
fred B. Anderson is likely to be a
candidate for reelection. Anderson is
a Republican. Henry Cook and
Knowlton Pierce, both Republicans,
are also anxious to secure the nomi-
nation. The Democrats will probably
select either Bert Howatt or William
T. Barry. The latter came very
nearly winning out at a previous
election.

OPPOSE HOSPITAL
FOR WEST HUDSON
Project May Fall Through,
Owing to Attitude of Har-
rison Board.

The project of a tri-town hospital
to accommodate Harrison, Kearny
and East Newark may fall through,
owing to the unwillingnes of the Har-
rison Board of Health to enter into
the scheme. AT a meeting of the
Harrison board last night John I.
Malone, president of the board, re-
ported that a number of Harrison
manufacturers and citizens did not
see the necessity of a West Hudson
hospital. 1t was also said that Har-
rison at present Is. getting excellent
service from Newark hospitals, to
which the town makes yearly dona-
,tions.
A final decision will be reached at
a conference of the Harrison, Kearny
and East Newark health boards. The
other two towns will be informed thai
sentiment in Harrison is against the
tri-town project. If desired, the Har-
rison board may take steps to submit
the question to the voters in the form
of a referendum at the next election.
An ordinance prohibiting over
crowding in living rooms was passed
on final reading. For the first viola
ton the offender will be fined $40 and
for each subsequent violation a fine
of s25 will be imposed. Another or
dinance promulgated makes it an Of
Tense for a physician to neglect re-
porting a death from contagion with
in six hours after thd demise. The
fine for a violation is $50.
The application of Harry Blanchard
a Newark plumber, for a license to do
business in Harrison was referred.
Blanchard. 1t was said, gave a Kearny
office address and investigation
proved he had nc Office in that town.
He was arrested in Harrison a short
time ago at the instigation of Health
Inspector John T. Mcclure. who
proved the plumber violated the
plumbing laws. The board voted to
appropriate 50 to further the work of
the North Jersey Mosquito Extermin-
ating League.

GREED OF NEW WORKERS
BERMUDA'S CURSE, HE SAYS

|
H. v. Mccall. florist, living in Or
ange, returned from Bermuda yes
terday in the Royal Mail steamship
Orotava, and is of the opinion that
the beautiful islands gradually r
decaying, ag~riculturally, due to the
greed of the commission merchants
in New York, who charge the farm
ers of Bermuda such high rates or
all produce sent to the market here
that cultivation of fruits and vege-
tables for export is fast becoming
prohibitive. Laziness of the negro
laboref is responsible, Mccall thinks.
for the spread Of the scale, a pest
hat attacks orange trees. The Brit
ish government, he said, has des-
troyed thousands of the trees to save
the citrus fruits on the islands.
McGalrs grandfather, H.. J.. Mccall,
was government horticulturistt in
Bermuda for forty years. His ances-
tors have lived in the islands a cen.
