BLAME STRIKE FOR
SHORTAGE IN COAL
Dealers in the Oranges Ex-
plain Conditions in Mo-
tees to Customers.

People in Orange who have been
wondering. during the recent change
in the weather, about the possibilities
of coal supply, were given the fol-
lowing notices today. when bills were
sent out by dealers.
During the suspension of mining In
April and May Of this year the short
age of coal production was about
eight million tons, which will not be
made up this year especially stove
and chestnut sizes.
In consequence railroad coal COM
panies are supplying less coal to all
retail dealers in the Eastern States
than in former years. in which there
has been no interruption of coal min
ing.
For this reason we cannot Ali all
orders at one time. and ask your for
bearance by accepting Goa in small
and frequent deliveries as we can get
the coal.
All dealers are restricted as we are.
The price at time of accepting your
order will hold rood until the whole
amount due you is delivered.
This unsatisfactory condition is
beyond our power to control.
1t costs us much more to deliver
small quantities, which is our loss,
than to fill orders completely at one
time.
- We assure you of the best service
possible, and our intention to deal
justly with you.

j. RAYNOR OUT TO
BEAT COUNCILMAN RICE
"WiIson Progressive Policy
Man Announces Candidacy.

Gilbert j.. Raynor. the man who
"tin-panned" George L. Record out
of Harrison, is a f'wilson Progress
sive' Policy man thfs year. AS such
he will give Councilman Edward i.
Rice, of the Second ward, Harrison,
a fight for the councilmanic berth at
the election next month. Raynor
made this announcement last night.
Raynor, 1t will be remembered, six
years ago, clashed with Councilman
Rice for the Council seat. He was a
Republican then. Later, as a G. o.
=. adherent. he sought shrievalty
honors. In both quests he was UNI
successful. The oil used on the
cogs in the Republican party machine
did not suit RaYnor and he flunked
over to the Democratic side.
shortly after, becoming a believer
in Jeffersopian principles Raynor ono
night assumed the role Of leader, and,
in fact, was the whole orchestra that
gave an lmpromptu concert to Record.
The latter had been introduced Mt a
mass-meeting that was being held at
Harrison avenue and Lodi street,
Harrison, but Raynor, peeved with
treatment he claimed Record had
given him, made such n racket with
q tin-pan and mallet thet Record
had TO retire In disgust.
Raynor's petition to become a can
didate against Mr.. Rice had been
signed by moro than thirty voters. lie
expects to file 1t with the Hudson
county clerk the latter part of this
week.

Is Afforded Rest.

After fo~rty-one years in the service
Of one family, Thomas Gardeners has
been rewarded for his faithfulness by
being pensioned and sent to ireland
to spend his declining days. He is so
years old.
1t was just forty-one years ago when
Oliver S. Carter, then living i'll Main
street, Orange, took Gardener into his
service. In 1876 Mr.. Carter moved to
Mortified avenue, West Orange,
where his daughter, Mrs. George IL.
Macy. now lives. During this time
the genial Irlshman has always been
on guard watching his employers
property and doing chores about the
place.
Gardener still retains some OF the
spryness that made him feared by
boys trespassing on Carter grounds,
But age has told, and "Uncle Tom, >
as his boy friends like to call him,
is now the possessor Of hair of al.
most snowy Wilderness, and "A flowing
beard reaching almost to his waist
gives him II quaint appearance as
he takes his morning walk about the
old homestead. He says he still feels
i'm the best OF health. and his ruddy
color backs up his assertion.
Last summer Mrs. Macy had
Tom take a trip 10 Ireland, but
"a longing for his adopted country
seized him and he returned after n
stay of two months. Tho trip he Is
about to make will be his last, he
declares, as he, rs not coming back.
1t hurts him to say goodby, but the
sight of his old country once more,
and his presence in Ireland when
that country gets homo rule, will sat
isfy him.
Every Sunday morning. rain or
shine, the figure of the old man is
one watched for at church. He has
attended St. Johns Church since he
has been in Mr.. Carter's employ and
lstes ip Mrs. Mays service.
