DEAF AND Dumb
WELLS At ARREST
"Unfortunate" Vender of Court
plaster Forgets Signs Word
ing--Is County's Guest.

Poor, deaf and dumb Frank Smith
is in trouble today and will be for
the next three months.
As an itinerant vender of court
plaster. he eked out a precarious liv-
ing and lodged, when he was able, at
the Home Hotel. 26S Market street.
Wandering into the wilds of Kear-
nv last night, he endeavored to sell
his courtplaster. Once or twice
passersby refused to buy. and. hurt
by their b~ruskness, Smith tried in
his deaf and dumb way to reveal his
d~ispleasure.
He did 1t by looking daggers and 50
successfully that one of the men who
didn't buy complained to Patrolman
Thomas Heslin.
No policeman likes to "run in such
a perfectly docile and forlorn-looking
individual as Smith, with his battered
deaf-and-dumb sign. So Heslin merely
motioned for him to move on.
Not being an expert in sign Ian
guage, Heslin probably made the
wrong sort of motions.
Smith let out a yell.
Lei Tic ~, TIC o"io"' %
YOU want'er do with a poor deaf and
dumb man-that's what I wants to
know, you big pig of a ~pie-faced-"
And he lapsed into u flow of Sc
lected profanity that made the blue
coat blush.
Can it," he ordered, until you're
in the cooler"
Then Smith began TO cream. On
tho way TO the police station he man
aged to awaken the better part Of
che town.
For a dumb man you're doing
WE'LL" commented Heslin, as he
dragged his prisoner up the steps.
On the theory that dumb men as
we'll as dead men can't talk, Re-
corder Leonard A. WINNER sentenced
smith to Jail for ninety days.

FEARS CONFUSION IN
VOTING FOR ASSEMBLY

That voters may be confused by
the arrangement of names of Pro-
gressive Assembly candidates on the
official ballot was pointed out at q
meeting of the Orange Bun Moose
last night. City Counsel William A.
Lord, president of the club. in his in
structions, said that the Progressive
Assembly names start off with three
men at the bottom of the second
column. directly under the candidates
for House of Representatives. The
other nine nominees names are car
ried over to the third column.
Mr.. Lord announced three meetings
for tonight which Herman b. Walker,
Progressive candidate for Congress,
will address. The gatherings are 10
be at Main and Day streets, Parrow
and Hickory streets and Washington
and Day streets. The city committee
of the Bull Moose will have a final
session before the campaign closes
or Monday night at headquarters, in
Main street.

very peculiar whistle.

MAYOR H|NCK HOME
READY FOR FIGHT
MontcIair Executive to Start
Campaign, Tonight Against
Two Forces.

Mayor Ernest c. Hinek, of Mont
clair, is back from Europe, ready to
utilize the few days that remain be-
fore election in an effort to spike the
guns of those who took advantage of
his absence to put Councilman Walter
Kidde in the mayoralty race against
him.
The mayor will start his fight to-
night in Commonwealth Hall, Upper
Montelair, and is quite confident that
here and in the other places he will
plead his cause he will be able to dis
pei all the harm that was done in his
absence. Mayor Hinck does not re-
greet having had to curtail his Euro
pean trip to further his desire to sue
coed himself as chief executive of the
town, so pleased is he at the prospect
of having a real fight on his hands
and not having his election a foregone
conclusion.
The story of the interjection oe
Councilman Kidde into the mayoralty
campaign is interesting. Montclair's
Republican population is so large that
a Republican nomination usually
al election. Accordingly, Mayor
Hinck, as soon as he had filed his pc
tition, decided that he could ignore
the Democratic nomination, as repre-
scented by W. Locke Rockwell, and
left for Europe.
Scarcely had the ship carrying the
mayor to the other side passed
through the narrows when the, may
or's opponents nominated Walter
kidde for mayor. A stirring cam
paign was started for him with neigh
borhood meetings. house-to-house
and other vo~te-getting
schemes, and day by day he seemed
to loom up stronger.
Mayor Hinck needed nothing more
than a short report of how things
were going to convince him that his
presence was needed in Montclair, II
he was to succeed in having himself
reelected. Accordingly, he packed up
and took the first ship back.

for mayor of that town, and who

night in Mt. Carmel Hall, Pine street.
