Merton c. Leonard, secretary OF the
kearny Civic Alliance. who has taken
the stump in Kearny In behalf of for
mer Freebooter John T. Howe, candi-
date for mayor. in each address made
by him makes reference to certain
items as shown in the reports of Bur
ton z. Garfield, town treasurer OF
Kearny.
Mr.. Leonard's statement is as fol-
lows:
THE town report for 1911, pages L.
and lS, shows receipts and disburse-
ments of the town treasurer Among
the receipts are those from the collec-
tor. on page 81. The collectors report
shows the amount paid to the treas
urer. II the collector paid TO the
treasurer five cents. the treasurer got
Eve cents from the collector. He
didn't get six cents or four cents. The
amount paid to the treasurer by the
collector and the amount received
from the collector by the treasurer
are the same amount. Page "a Of this
1911 report shows the collector paid to
the treasurer S441, 755.43- Page IL
showsthc treasurer received from the
collector s4S9. 1851.
Are these reports right or are they

Will of John W. Woodruff,
of West Orange, Admitted
TO Probate; Widow Gets All

The will of John W Woodruff Of
West Orange. with a correction made
two years after it was executed, was
admitted TO probate In the surro-
gates office today. The instrument,
as drawn on November %. 1910, bore
the name of one witness Thomas G.
Harrison, while the law In this state
requires that there be two witnesses.
Two years later Mr.. Woodruff heard
of the law and corrected the win by
re-siglning IN It in the presence of
Thomas G. Harrison and his brother,
John q. Harrison. Tho will also
lacked the attestation clause, de
claring and publishing it as the last
will and testament of the testator,
signed by the witnesses each in the
presence of the other
BY the terms of the document the
widow, Della A. Woodruff, Is made
sole beneficiary and executTix. The
estate is not large.
Mr.. Woodruff died October 10 at
his home in Prospect avenue, West
Orange, at an advanced age. For
thirty-four years he had been en-
ployed by HARRISON Brothers. shoe
dealers, in East Orange. During all
that time he walked to and from his
work. 1t was estimated by one who
had known him that the distance he
had covered in his long daily walks
over the mountain was close to 1884,
900 miles.

TRADE BOARD FOR
IMHOFF SCHEME
Orange Business Men Declare
Themselves Against Trunk
Sewer Project.

Although no action was taken, the
Trade in discussing the relative mer-
its of the Imhoff sewage disposal and
trunk sewer schemes last night de-
clared for the former. 1t was said
that even If Orange, East Orange and
Montclair still have an opportunity to
enter the Passaic valley trunk sewer
agreement it is better to build an
Imhoff plant.
1t was declared by the advocates of
the Imhoff scheme that the time is
inevitable when sewage matter of all
municipalities must be cared for by a
tank system. Those of the board
members opposed TO the city enter
ing the pact with NIontclair and East
Orange refrained from joining in the
discussion.
John Lee. who inspected a tank
plant at Saratoga last summer, ex-
planned the workings of that system,
stating 1t has been in operation for
twelve years and never once got out
of order. He exhibited q bottle of
water taken from the plant after the
sewage had been treated and declared
Dllysicians In the place said the LIQUID
vas fit for drinking. He added many
residents have often drank the water,
but admitted he would not take a
chance on it.
1t was also predicted at the meet
ingsfhat West Orange and South Or
ange will soon be without a place to
dispose of their sewage, as they will
be prohibited from dumping the mat
ter into the Elizabeth River.

6O0-POnnd Pig Resists
Arrest So Well That
CaptOrs Need New Clothes

After a rough and tumble fight in
which clothes were torn and soiled,
n half-dozcn iner in Kearny early to-
cay finally accomplished an arresl.
Two policemen wero mixed up in the
happening. They've probably ordered
new uniforms by this time And the
worst of it all is the law ninions
can't even have the satisfaction OF
seeing fine imposed or hearing their
prisoner rebuked by the court.
As matter of fact il was with real
delight that .he day sergeant today
flung open the cell doors behind which
the prisoner had been thrown. With
grunt and squeal the trouble
maker literally flew into the main
corridor
1t might be well to state here the
prisoner was a pig weighing 800
pounds. The porker was running on
the lawn in front of the police sta
ton when Patrolman Edward Dayey
happened elong. He decided to take
Mr.. Pig into the station, The animal
resisted. Davey called for help. Desk
Sergeant Philip Bell end four citizens
answered the call OF Davey. All six
flung themselves on the porker, but
the quadruped wriggled and finally
freed himself flinging his wouldbe
captors In all directions.
After a fight of probably half an
hour the pig was subdued and car
ried into the police station. 1t was
placed in the cell known as t'Mary's
ROOM" and remained there until
claimed shortly before noon by tie
authorities OF an Arlington institu-
ton.

ORPHAN BOYS IN
FLIGHT WAKE TOWN
Policeman Finds Two Run
Always and Rings Bell to
Restore Them.

John and William Murphy, twelve
and eight years old respectively. in
mates Of an orphan asylum at Bel
grove drive and Pomeroy avenue,
Kearny, decided last night they want
ed to go free. Thus did they open
channels for a series of happenings
that finally eliminated early today
with the arousing of half of the
peaceful burg.
The lads were In line for supper
last night. While en- route to the
table they asked they be excused.
Both left the room. presumably TO go
to the dormitory. They never reached
there, as later investigation proved.
Instead they made their way into the
yard. They didn't take long TO. figure
how boys three feet tall could vault
a fence which scared seven feet in
the air. Any boy could dope" that
out
Once on Pomeroy avenue the lads
wendell their way to Belgrove drive.
They sought places to sleep. Each
time they thought they had bunk
some one discovered them and they
had to take it on the double quick.
For several hours they roamed about
and on more than one occasion set
members OF families TO thinking bur-
glars were prowling about.
They managed 10 keep out Of
harms way until shortly after
o'clock this morning. when Patrolmar
George Holt, of Kearny, found the
lads lodging between cars ON the Erie
railroad near the Grant avenue cross.
Ing. Holt nabbed the pair. Hs
learned where they came from and
started them back.
All three vaulted the fence to get
into the grounds. Holt tried to arouse
someone by weiting his nightstick on
the doors. His efforts we're futile. He
finally spied the large bell that Is
rung for school and drills. Holt
grabbed the rope and rang the bell.
The neighborhood. thinking there
was a fire at the institution, was up
in a fifty. Policemen came running
from other parts of the town. In the
building excitement reigned supreme.
When everything had settled down
and explanations made the lads were
taken In. Holt boasts of the fact he
never gambled in his life, but he is
willing 10 bet a toothpick that there
was no fatted calf devoured upon the
return of the stray youths.

UNJUST ATTACKS

date Repudiates Charge of
Boss-Owned Candidates.

W. Give Crosby, Republican candi-
date for the Assembly, denounced the
Newark News in an address last night
in the parlor of the Disciples Of
Christ Church, East Orange. He said
he considered statements to the effect
that the Democratic and Republican
Assembly candidates are owned by
corrupt political machines a ref1ec-
ton on himself.
81 say fearlessly," asserted Mr.. Cros-
by, that l am Disguised with the
Newark Evening News in its rep
resentation of political conditions. We
have a public newspaper printing as
facts statements which are deliberate
falsehoods.r
Mr.. Crosby then declared he consid-
cred the attacks a reflection upon
him.
And I am sensitive concerning the
reflection. too" continued the candi-
date. 81 admire the sensitive man
who is proud of his integrity and his
name. I fearlessiy and publicly de-
nounce such tactics as column after

oates IN the Fifth Ward. Former

man as is Theodore Roosevelt was de-
clared by Edward l.. Foster, Progress

Assembly, spoke on Socialism.
