sort for Would-be divorces.

Mr. and Mrs. Ray McCardel, or rain
er the Jarr family, were also present
The former made a few facetlous re-
marks about current superstitlons
and added much to the occasion.
Mr.. Jarr was followed by COL Hobbs
who was the handspring of the even
ing's pleasure and profit, and the man
whose hand all wished to grasp, for
to him was given the credit for plan
ming and carrying to a successful
consummation an occasion that WILL
linger long in the memories Of the
participants. We will not dwell at
length upon his speech, for, as usual,
it was clever, short and to-the-point.
The surprise Of the evening, both
to the speaker and the guests, was
snrung when Mr.. McAdam, the toast
master, rose and announced that
there was present the president of a
leading Southern college that stood
for everything a college should stand
for, and called for speech from DR..
J. Henry Harms. We have always
considered DR.. Harms a most happy
speaker and his remarks on this oc-
casion only added to the previous i'm
preston. He spiced his remarks with
telling joke or two and then spoke
seriously and learnedly upon Super
stition." No speaker was more at
tentively listened tor greeted with
greater applause. AS he sat down
Mr.. Abarbanelli, an editor of wide re-
pute rose and thanked DR.. Harms in
no uncertain terms for the thoughts
he left with the club. At the close of
the speech-making Col. Hobbs table
was surrounded by members and
guests, among them Dorothy Dix, eag-
er to express their appreciation.
We were also glad to learn that DR..
Harms stay in Washington promises
to result in much good for the col
lege, and we trust he will be even
more successful in his interviews here
during this week and that he may
return home with his task accomplish
ed to his entire satisfaction.
A poet, I believe it was Riley, said
that:
"The world is so full of g. number of
things
I'm sure we should all be as happy
as kings
This might be narrowed down to
New York city, for in reality, it is so
full of things of all kinds. that we
fain would write of some of them had
we the mental energy necessary to
making a choice, however, We shall
refrain, ito be continued in our next,
mayhap. Is it too late in the year to
add a good wish or tWo-or are they
always in order? The latter, We hope,
for we would like to pass on wish
that came to US earlier in the year:
MAY every morning seem to say
There's something happy on the way
And God sends love to you!"

CALHOUN's COURT is DEAD.
Representative Miller Introduces Bill
That Puts on Finishing Touches.

That Puts on Finishing Touches.
The city court of Calhoun county
was abolished by vote of the people
about two years ago, but the act
abolishing it was similar to an act
abolishing the city court of Newton,
Baker county, and the supreme court
of Georgia held in that case that the
act abolishing the city court of New
ton was invalid for the reason that
it was not stated in the act who
should declare the result of the cleo
ton. Two of the judges of the SUI
preme court held that the act was
good and the others, a majority of
the bench, held that it was not good.
The act to abolish the city court of
this county being similar to and
probably in the same condition as
that abolishing the city court of New
ton, our representative, Hon. A. l..
Miller, last week introduced a bill
in the general assembly abolishing
the city court of Calhoun county,
thereby removing all doubt as to the
existence of the court.
Mr.. Miller states that on account
of the majority votes against the
city court he feels it his duty to
abolish the court. That courts are
for the people; the people run them,
and they have the right to say how
many and what kinds of courts they
prefer.-Edison News.

condition. Quick action by his mother
probably saved him from death.
Early last night the lad went into
the yard and only a few minutes had
elapsed when he screamed.
Mrs. Doyf. peering from a window,
saw the child ablaze. She seized a
quilt and started downstairs. She
met the boy, midway. on the STAIR
case. Wrapping the quilt about him
she managed to extinguish the blaze.
Her hands were burned. Neighbors,
attracted by the boys screams, helped
Mrs. Doyle apply first aid remedies.
DIR. A. A. Mulligan was called. He
found the youngsters chest and arms
badly burned. The physician does
not believe the lad inhaled any of the
flames.
Mystery surrounds the in
which the boy was set afire. When
Mrs. Doyle looked into the yard there
was no one there except the young

did not reveal any burned matches,
and there was no trace of a bonfire.

JOSEPH YORK
KILLS SELF

With a bullet wound in his right
temple and a revolver six feet from
his body, Joseph York. a widower, of
81 Lombard street, this city. was
found dead late last night in the Pal
ace Hotel. Hoboken. He had taken
his own life.
York was a trusted salesman Ia the
employ of Ludlow & Squier, hardware
dealers. of 81 Market street. He had
been on a two weeks vacation and
was to have returned to his duties
today. The firm today said that his
accounts were perfectly straight. and,
as far as it knew, he had no DCs,-
ness troubles. The only reason it can
give for his taking his life is mat
he was affected by the heat.
From letters found in the pockets
of york, it is indicated that he and
his father. who is reputed 10 be a
millionaire in Morristown, have nc.
been on friendly terms. Ths letters
asked the young man to rssarn home.

more than $50 and valuapse jcwelry
in his pockets.
Shortly after 7 O'Clock last night
York entered the Palace Hotel and
asked for a room on the second floor.
Two hours later he called John Gibbs.
a bellboy, and asked for whiskey and
soda. According to Gibbs, York acted
strangely. Gibbs loitered in the room
several minutes.
You may go now" said Gibbs,
'.and please do not come here again
unless I call you. l want a long
sleep"
Gibbs reported to the manager of
the hotel that York was acting
strangely. Two hours later the bell
bow returned to Gibbs's room. He
knocked and, receiving no response,
went to the office, where he got a key

After a desperate attempt to rescue

almost before her eyes, Mrs. So
phia Fronczak is today suffering from
hysteria at her home at 80 Boyd
street. heart-broken over the calamity

She would have thrown herself on
the PROSTATE form of her child after
the wagon had passed over IT. but
neighbors seized her while others ran
to the assistance of the little girl
and carried her TO Reich's drug store
nearby. Later a police ambulance
arrived and took her to the City Hos
pital.
Unable to overcome her anxiety for
her child Mrs. Fronczak sent her hus-
band to the hospital early this morn
ing to bring the little one back. The
hospital authorities were loathe to re-
lease the child. as both hips are frae-
tured, and unless the most careIui
attention is sven, they say, she WIN
be lame for life. The father dared
not return without the little girl. n
after plea ing for the little one lie
was allowed to take her home.
The little girl was playing in front
of her home when the accident oc-
Cured, and her mother was sitting
on the stoop nearby. A horse at
tached to a wagon in which were
three men, dashed through the street
crowded with children, and before
she could escape little Caroline was
trampled beneath the horses hoofs
one of the front wheels passing com
pletely ove the girl.
The man driving the horse did not
stop to look back, but applied MS
whip to the horse n made his es-
cape while bystanders rushed to the
child's aid.
