given here that is the work of q
pupil of the schools Of either Essex,
HUDSON or Union County lends a local
interest to the production that is Of
superior interest and unusual attrac-
tiveness.
Public spirit will prompt people to
see the work. of local school children
as 1T is produced or the stage, and It
is certain that the public Is not to be
disappointed in its desire to witness a
clever and highly entertaining play.
There are sixty-five contestants who
are busy getting their stories in shape
for presentation to the judges. Some
stories have already been received and
acknowledged. The merit of these
plays is not to be decided at this time.
They will await the action of the
judges.
All plays must be in the possession
of the judges on April 8 and con
testants should have their names reg
istered with The Star Contest Editor
as soon as possible. The time remain
ing for the perfection of the stories
and the writing of the manuscripts is
limited and the time remaining for
pupils to make up their minds as to
entering the contest is exceedingly
limited.
The entry blanks found in the daily
issues of The Star will be withdrawn
next Saturday and 1t is earnestly
hoped that all who intend to take
part in the contest will have sent in
their names before that time In order
to avoid any disappointment or mis-
understanding later.
1t will be necessary, in the decision
of so important a contest, that the
judges shall abide strictly to the rules
that govern 1t and that have been ac-
cepted in good faith by the con-
testants themselves. We therefore
urge those who are taking part and
who intend to take part to read the
rules carefully and to follow them
faithfully.
After the final date of entry a COM
plete list of contestants will be pub
lished in The Star. One of these con-
testants will be the winner. Whom
the judges select as a winner

A Sad Accident
From The Beaver Herald,

From The Beaver Herald,
Our little city suffered shock
early Saturday morning which
will not soon be forgotten. Sims
Brown, proprietor of the Palace
barber shop, in the basement of
the Beaver Mercantile Company
building, was reported missing
by his small son Harry. The two,
who lived alone, roomed in the
shop, and upon awakening Satur-
urday morning, Harry noticed
that his father was gone, but that
his clothing was lying on the bed.
He spread the news at once and.
a search was instituted, butt no
trace found. Some time after
ward E. H. Mansfield went to his
hog lot to feed. About the same
time C.. w. Hoskins, whose barn
is adjoining, came. out to the lot.
They noticed the hogs vicionsly
attacking something, and upon
investigation found it to be the
body of Sims Brown. One side
of the face and head and one arm
and hand we're badly mangled,
and the sight was one which
struck horror even to the brave
hearts Of these strong men. AS
sistance was quickly secured and
the body removed by order of
the coroner, II. d. Meese.
1t is the general opinion that
the unfortunate man was in a
semi-conscious state, and was
probably impressed that he had
some work to do on his auto,
having until recently owned
machine which he kept in a shed
near the hog lot. When found
he was dressed in overalls and
jumper. and he had not been
wearing such garments since be-
ing in the barber shop, except in
his auto work. A bruise over
one eye indicated that he had
fallen or received a blow, and
since the eye was badly swollen,
life was not extinct at the time
of the injury. 1t is more than
proba bic that in climbing over
the board fence which incloses
the lot, he tripped and fell, or
was stricken with appoplexy, and
while lying unconscious was at
tackled and killed by the hogs.
There is no indication nor belief
of foul play, and no blame is at
tached to anyone. 1t is only one
of those unfortunate circum-
stances, the true version of
which will alwayssbe mystery,
aud matter of much conject-
ure. 1t is most deplorable and
Beaver regrets that one of her
fellow townslnen should suffer
such a sad fate.
