LONG MAY BECOME
Chief THIS WEEK
appointment viii Probably Be
Made Thursday by Police
Board-Tuite for Captain.

The appointment of Captain Michael
T. Long, of the Fifth precinct, to be
chief of the Newark police department
will probably be made Thursday at
the regular meeting of the Board of
Police Commissioners, and he will be
Immediately installed in the position,
subject to his confirmation by the
Common Council at its October meet
ing.
At conference of the board men,
bers yesterday afternoon the GER
tification of Captain Long as the only
eligible applicant for the position was
received from the Civil Service Com
mission, and the members expressed
their satisfaction with the situation
and decided that they would not in
sist on a list of three eligibles from
which to make q choice. Had the
latter course been pursued another
examination would have had to be
held, in which the lieutenantS would
have to enter, as well as the four
captains who failed to pass the recent
test. This would be impracticaple and
as a matter of fact could not be held
without violation of the Civil SerV-
ice Boards own rules.
meeting a lieutenant will be promoted
to fill the vacancy caused by the ele-
walton of Captain Long and that
Lieutenant Frank w. Tuite, of the de-
tective bureau, will be the one pro-
moted.
OF the twelve lieutenants who
passed the recent examination Lieu
tenant Tuite headed the list and 1t is
said to be the intention Of the board
to adhere to It's rule of the past and
make its appointments according to
the standing of the men. 1t Is also
understood that while only one cap
tain will be named Immediately, two
others will be made in the very near
future.
Il is the present intention of the
board to have the new Vallsburg SUD
precinct commanded by lieutenant
under the supervision of Captain
Vogel, but it is believed that Lieu
tenant Joseph Cordano, the second on
the list for promotion, will be made
a captain and put in command, ana
that Lieutenant CORDIALLY, the .nli MIRO
on the list, will be made captain
and placed in command of police
headquarters at night.
While 1t is taken as certainty
That three captains will be made, 1t
Is not a foregone conclusion that they
will be assigned to the details with
which their names are mentioned at
the present time, as it is a general
rumor around City Hall that there
will be a general shifting about in
the department and that there may
be a complete change of the present
precinct commanders.

TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur
Darkens so Naturally
Nobody can Tell.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers treatment, and folks are
again using 1t to keep their hair a
good. even color, which is quite sem
s,ble, as we are living in an age when
a Youthful appearance is of the
preatest advantage.
Nowadays, though, We don't have
the troublesome task of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home.
Ali drug stores sell the ready-to-use
nroduct called "Wyeth's Sage and
SuInrur Hair Remedy" for about so
cents a bottle. 1t is very popular
because nobody can discover it has
been applied. Simply moisten your
comb or a soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
Ing the gray hair disappears. but
What delights the ladies with Wyeth's
sage and Sulphur is that, besides
heautifully darkening the hair after
a few applications, it also produces
that soft lustre and appearance OF
eh,,ndance which is so attractive; be-
a;das prevents dandruff, itching
scaIn and falling hair.

Let Conscience Dictate Vote,
Priest Tells Holy Name Men

Rev. Thomas A. Conroy, rector of
st. Cecilia's r. C. Church, Kearny,
was the principal speaker at a recep-
ton given last night by the members
of the Holy Name society to the men
of the parish. Among other things
Father Conroy referred to the pri-
mary election.
"Vote for the man you think best
fitted for the office sought. Don't
draw the line against him because
he might differ with you in religious
beliefs" he said. "One of the most
sacred privileges a man enjoys is that
of voting. 1t Is therefore of decided
import that he follow the dictates of
his conscience"
Others who took part in the affair
were Hugh Mcdonald, Edward
O'Hara, Edward Teer. Joseph Helm
rich. Lawrence Barrett, Frederick and
Joseph Massey and Bernard McWat-
tiers. About $50 men were in at
tendance.

Catholic Club Aroused by
Alleged Rooney Endorsement


Charles. w. Rooney, who is running
as an Independent Democratic candi-
date for alderman in the Second ward
against the regularly indorsed Demo-
cratic candidate, Mark A. Phillips,
appears to have friends possessed of
an overzealousness that hurts.
Friends of that type seem to have
crossed the line of safety yesterday
in describing the steps taken by them
to boost their candidate, Mr.. Rooney
The introduction of hurdy-gurdys
into the pleasantries of campaign
may be legitimate enough, but the
announcement that the>>Young Mems
Caholic Association at a special meet
ing had Endorsed Rooney's candidacy
comes in for a swift and hard jolt.
Members of the association are con-
siderably worked up over the con-
Meeting of the organization with
politics of any kind, and aver that If
the persons responsible for the offense
can be brought to light consequences
may not be quite agreeable.
1.-THE Young Mems Catholic Asso-
citation is a religious. not political
body" say members thereof, land the
Endorsement of a candidate for politi-
cal office would be positively contrary
to our principles There are Repub-
licans as well as Democrats in the
association, and political lines cannot
be allowed to figure. Someone has
surely Numbered"
A clincher was put to the matter
this morning by the following COM
munication on the stationery of the
Young Mems Catholic Association:
ITO the Editor of the Star:
"Dear Sir-There WAS no meeting of
the Young Mems Catholic Association
held to indorse any candidate for
political office.
JAMES E. McEVOY, Secretary"
Other communications of a similar
nature put the stamp of disapproval
on the use of the associations name
for political effect.
