Chief Event.

A schoolmaster Is telling a rather
funny story against himself. He be.
gins the story with the significant re-
mark that one Saturday he paid the
last of series of visits to his dentist
On the following Monday morning one
or two of his pupils looked at him GU.
riously, but, of course, nothing was
said. He makes point Of trying to
interest his pupils in the current az
fairs of the world, 80 when his class
assembled he opened his newspaper
and, as usual, asked the question:
well, children, what is the chief
event that has happened since Fri
day?"
Quick as lightning came the reply
from little girl in the front row:
please, sir, you've had set OF
false teeth"

Voicing the Sentiment in the Upper
Peninsula.


Peninsula.
The voters of the upper peninsula
will wait with some interest for the
explosion that is to wipe out the Eame
and fame of Judge Steere. They lave
known him for many years. He has
lived long in this peninsula, and lived
clean and wholesome, and he is known
to all of us as brave man in any 20
sition in which he may be placed, who
is courageous enough to decide any
question on it's merits and according
to the law as he interprets it. And
we can say further that he is much
skilled in his profession; th-.t his
mind is clear and that his training has
all been along right lines. No man
has ever questioned the ability or the
honesty of Judge Steere. He is one
of Gods noblemen.
The people of this peninsula will
stand solidly back of Judge Steere
until the polls are closed on election
day, and they will be back of him
from now right up to that min
ute.
And all the good things that are be.
ing said of Judge Steere apply
equally we'll to Judge Moore, the dean,
in point of service, on the supreme
bench. He is known the state over,
as well as outside of Il. for his legal
ability, his fine legal mind and train.
ing He is particularly important ct
this time due to his familiarity with
the position. All people who know
Judge Moore, irrespective of political
affiliations, have only admiration for
him.-From the Iron Ore, Ishpeming.

Voters Pleased With Republican
Ticket.

When the voters of the state go ia
the polls on Tuesday, April 7th, they
will find one state ticket awaiting
their inspection that will deserve
their approval and their support. The
Republican state ticket of this spring
not only represents the judgment and
the sympathies of men who. were Re-
publicans last year, but 1t represents
the judgment and sympathies of a
very large number of men who did not
support the Republican ticket last
year. No convention ever held in
Michigan represented a more con-
scientious and sincere desire to act
for the welfare Of all the people OF
The state than the recent Republican
state convention. 1t gave to the
state a strong ticket composed Of
clean, able and high-class men, and It
announced a declaration of principles
advanced In character and thoroughly
rincere In expression.

POLICE HUNT BRUTE WHO
CUT HEIFER'S TONGUE

Agents for the S. z. c. A. and
the Bloomfield police are trying to
capture the person who cruelty tor
tured 2-year -old heifer in the stable
of Mrs. Anna Stiritz, of East Pas
sale avenue, Bloomfield, early today.
The barking of watch dogs woke up
the family of Mrs. Stiritz at 1 o'clock,
but no investigation was made until
daylight. The heifer was found with
blood flowing from the mouth. A
sharp knife had evidently been used
to sever the tip of the animals
tongue.
Tho case is one of such extreme
cruelty that both the society and the
police are determined to clear 1t up.
In cases of almost similar nature in
different parts of the State heavy
sentences have been imposed on those
convicted of the crime
A few weeks ago number of
chickens owned by Mrs. Stiritz died
supposedly from poisoning. She now
believes that both the deaths of the
chickens and the cutting of the
heifer's tongue we're the work of the
same party, who she thinks has some
motive for revenge.

TWO MONTCLAIR CHURCHES
PLANNING AMALGAMATION


Tor the purpose of considering
amalgamation.s the congregations of
the First and Third Presbyterian
churches of Montclair held a meet
ing last night The plan is to sell
the property of both churches and
erect a building in which the united
flocks can worship. The pastor Of
Trinity Church, the Rev. DIR. Orville
Reed, resigned some time ago. The
Rev. DIR. Llewellyn S. Fulmer is pas
tor of the First Church.
The First Church building is in the
centre of the town. ON one of the
most valuable corners, standing on a
site that is desired for business pur-
poses. The property is valued at
So. 900. Trinity Church is an out
growth of the First Church, having
been established about twenty years
ago. It's property is valued at about
$50. 900.
No definite conclusion was reached,
but il was almost the unanimous
sentiment of the parishionors of both
churches that amalgamation would be
for their best interest. Each church
has appointed a committee of five to
confer on a plan and report back to
the congregations.

WAGON AND CAR COLLIDE;
TIES UP TRAFFIC AN HOUR

Adam Arnold, of ~ Springdale ave
nue.. Ampere section of East Orange,
q driver for George Dorer, milk
dealer, was severely shaken up in
Harrison last night as the result of
collision between his wagon and a
Kearny car. The wagon, which con-
tanned several tons OF grain, was GO
ing west on Cleveland avenue, Har-
rison, when it was struck by q south
bound Kearny car at North Fourth
street, Harrison. Arnold was thrown
between the horses, but was not Sc
verely hurt. The horses were slightly
injured and were taken to a nearby
BILE.
Traffic on the Kearny line was tied
up for about an hour by the partly
demolished wagon. The trolley in
spectors pushed the vehicle over on
the other tracks and as a result the
line was only using one track at a
late hour last night.

BLOOMFIELD DOESN'T
FAVOR COMMISSION RULE

No action was taken by the Bloom.
field Democratic Club last night
toward indorsing the movement in
favor of a commission form of gov
eminent in the town. 1t was ex-
pected that the club would go on
record as favoring the movement, but
after a long debate it was decided to
refer the matter back to commit
tee who have been looking into It,
The general opinion was. however.
that it would be better to let we'll
enough alone instead of trying an
experiment at this period, when so
many improvements are pending and
large bond issue is about to be
made.
AS far as can be learned the back
ing of the commission form of gov
eminent comes from the Progressive
wing of the Republican party. The
principal exponent of the cause Is
Axel V. Beeken, a newcomer in
Bloomfield and O resident of the
Berkeley Heights section of the
town. Politicians say commission at
this time could not carry a district
