TWO KEARNY MEN
HURT IN RUNAWAY
Health Commissioner Thrown
Out-Friend Injured Trying
to Stop Horse.

Victims of a runaway, two Kearny
men are today confined to their
homes. Both are seriously hurt
and are under the care of physicians.
The victims are Health Commissioner
Nevin Kennedy, of SO Johnston ave-
nue., and John Hoimark, 20 years old,
of 43 Kearny avenue. DR.. John Prin-
gle, of East Newark, is attending the
former, and Dr. E. S. Goudy,~ of
Kearny, is in attendance at the
Hoimark home.
The runaway, in which the horse
was slightly hurt and the wagon
partially wrecked, occurred late yes
terday Mr.. Kennedy. bound for his
Kearny store, was driving a new
horse. He had just crossed the Clay
street bridge when one of the rear
wagon wheels caught in a switch
and was ripped off. The horse took
fright and started away at a mad
control the animal.
Hoimark, bound for Newark, was
walking along Central avenue, East
Newark. He saw the horse coming
toward him and recognized Mr. Ken
nedy in the wagon. He ran into the
roadway and grasped the horse by
the bride. He was dragged along
for about fifty feet. In the mean
time Mr.. Kennedy had been hurled out
and landed on the hard pavement.
The frightened horse, with Hoimark
clinging TO the harness, dashed into
the side of a truck that was standing
on the thoroughfare. Hoimark was
pinned between the horse and the
wagon. He managed to hold the har-
ness, however, until a pedestrian
finally stopped the maddened animal
Hoimark was found to be badly
bruised and was bleeding about the
head.
The injured youth was taken in an
automobile TO the Office of DR.. Ed
ward l.. Burns. of North Broad and
Clark streets, this city. Three stitches
were taken over his left eye. He was
later taken home and DR.. Goudy
found he had a badly bruised chest.
His head was also bruised. Mr.. Ken
nedy, who had been picked up by by

WANT Commission
GOVERNMENT PLAN
West Orange to Hold Election
on January 7, After Vig-
orous Campaign.

With the Democrats and the Re
publicans arrayed against one an
other, the fight to bring the commits
sion form of government into West
Orange promises to be a merry
one. A petition containing 4s9 sigma
lures in favor of the proposition
was filed with the town clerk yester-
day. A special election will be called
for January Z. Those behind the
proposition will open. their campaign
with a mass meeting in the CASTOR
Street School on Saturday night, at
which Farnham Yardley will preside.
Only 432 signatures were necessary
on the petition. 1t was said today
that two women signed it. Some
confusion was caused in circulating
the petition and some people had an
idea that all taxpayers could sign 1t.
The commission folk have been ac-
tive for some time and hope to ter
inmate The government now headed
by Mayor Samuel A Muta and a
Town Council of ten men, chiefly on
the issue of large tax bills this year
The Democratic officials pow in
charge of the town assert the move
is simply another plan of the Re
publicans to get into the saddle, de-
spite the fact that the voters have
repeatedly declined to give them a
lease of power. The fight promises
to be warm one, although the in
terest of the public in the holiday
festivities is likely to take the edge
off the excitement usually incident to
a big proposition like a revolution in
government.
The present officials profess not to
be alarmed over the possibility of a
quick change in the opinions of the
voting population who gave the pres
ent administration a vote of conf
dence only last month, electing the
entire list of Democratic nominees
They also declare that among the
chief items of expense to the taxpay-
ers are improvements imperatively
required by town that is rapidly
developing, and one of the council

There was a new element injected
into the fight yesterday when the
West Orange branch of the Socialist
party formally announced its inten-
tion to combat the commission plan
The Socialists announced also a mass
meeting for tomorrow night in theiI
headquarters, wh6n men from cities
where the commission plan is in op-
Grafton will tell of its workings. They
will also take formal action to line
up for the fight against the scheme

LET PUPILS WORK
IN SHOPS, HE SAYS
Head Of Kearny Schools Sug-
gests Practical Mode of
instruction.

A suggestion, that will likely bear
much fruit, was offered last night TO the
Kearny Board of Education by Super
intendent of Schools Herman Dres-
sci, ir. 1t points out the advantages
to be gained by having pupils afford
ed the opportunity of visiting West
Hudson factories and taking an a tive
part in the work done in the shops.
In connection with his latest idea,
Mr.. Dressed had this to say:
'tThe High School will always be
somewhat handicapped in this town
because we have no shops, offices and
manufacturing plants which will help
US to give the High School students
what they need of experience in
actual business. If the manufactur-
ers sand merchants in West Hudson
would open their doors to the High
School students and admit them into
the workshops and Offices one week in
the month, the boys and girls could
be shown what the business man
needs and what the students need
The pupils would come back to their
studies with a definite idea of what
the school can and ought to do to
help them. 1t is only through such a
plan that the actual conditions in the
shop and office can be appreciated by
the students. 1t has been worked
successfully in Fitehburg. Mass. for
several years.
1T will be a great day for the
high school when the pupil will need
to put ON his overalls and actually
learn about the qualities of iron by
working it, and know the problems
connected with iron manufacture
first hand from the shop. Training
of this kind would tend to make
the education of our pupils more in
dividual. In the past, the effort was
to train all children alike; in the
future we shall strive TO make all
children different.
1.-The girl will be better trained
when she no longer has to demon
strate that a straight line perpen-
dicular to a radius at its extremity
is tangent to the circle but instead
she will be able to explain how much
money will be required to clothe the
family and maintain the home de-
Gently and respectfully. when she
will know pure food from poor food
and the value of meal prepared by
herself as compared with one bought
from the delicatessen."

THIEF SNATCHES HANDBAG
CONTAINING XMAS GIFTS

Miss Helen Smith, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. F. Gordon Smith, of Eagle
Rock way. Montclair. while walking
along Llewellyn road, toward her
home, last night, was followed by
man, who snatched a yellow handbag
from her hand and disappeared in the
darkness. She hastened to her home
and telephoned to the police station.
Sergeant Claren sent three policemen
to the scene, but a search failed to
locate the highwayman.
The handbag contained a small sum
of money and a few presents that
Miss Smith had purchased in New
York She could give no description
whatever of the highwayman, and
The yellow handbag is the only clue
the police have to work on.

CAN'T DEPOSE HIM,
SAYS FIRE CHIEF
South Orange Official Claims
Civil Service Protects
Him.

Contending that his name was sent
to the Civil Service Commission when
South Orange Village adopted the
civil service act almost two years
ago. Patrick McCahery said today
that he cannot be deposed as head
of the fire department in that VIII
lage. The Village Board of Trustees
named McCahery first assistant chief
at meeting Monday night. when the
fire department was reorganized. and
the Office of chief. which McCahery
has held for three years. was left
vacant
Mccahery maintains that he Is
neither assistant chief nor acting
chief. but chief He is of the opinion
that he will be protected by the Civil
Service Commission, because his name
was among those of the other village
officials furnishd the commission for
protection in office.
Believing that, ina smuch as the
office of chief of the fire department
is TO be a salaried one in the future.
whereas in the past II has been an
honorary position, the Village Board
y
ice Commission TO set a date for a
competitive examination of applicants
for the office. According to W. Ar
thur Babson. chairman of the fire
committee. any citizen of the village
between the ages of 81 and 45 years is
eligible to compete in the test.
McCahery points out that the ordi-
nance adopted on Monday night,
which resulted in the reorganization
of the fire department. has conflicting
points. and that the board viii not
have the power 10 make the office Of
chief a salaried one, under the pro-
visions of the measure. One of the
sections specifies. he AYERS, that me
department shall consist of sixteen
firemen. designated as chief. two as
sistants, a foreman, ten callmen and
such paid firemen as the board may
from time 10 time determine"
That section alone. he maintains.
provides for a volunteer chief only.
MeCahery, too, declares that only
members of the department are elig-
ible to take a civil service examina-
ton in the event of one being held.
Thomas j. Foran, member of the
paid staff of firemen in the village,
announced today that he is a candi-
date for the chiefship. 1t was said
today that William NJ. Ash. Harry J.
Becker. Edward J. Price. Charles
Searles, Alfred Allen and Fred G.
Mayer will undergo the civil service
test in the event of one being held.
