KEPT HIS HAT ON
WHILE IN CHURCH
Everybody in the Congregation
Became Nervous When They
Observed the Wearer.

Put-In-Bay, O.-Members of one of
the churches on South Bass island
did not say why they failed to speak
more emphatically to John Doe Smith,
sixty-five, when he wore his hat dur
ing divine service the other Sunday
evening. Perhaps it was because, a
week before, he rowed over to Middle
Bass in the teeth of gale and threw
couple of trespassers off his land.
They gave no reason. And his name
really isn't John Doe Smith.
But everybody in the congregation
became nervous upon entering the

derby hat on his head sitting on

TO JUDGE CABELL
Passaic City Man May Be Party
Choice to Succeed Late
Robert G. Brenner.

PATTERSON, Feb. 21.-With the
time drawing near for the election of
"a congressman to fill the vacancy
caused by the death OF Congressman
Robert @. Bremner, things political
are busy in the Seventh congressional
district.
eRepublicans feel the race is an
easy one for their party, and, accord
ingly. there is a scramble for the
nomination. The unscrambling will
take place March "a, the date set by
Governor Fielder for the primary.
The election will be held April Z.
In the Republican ranks there are
candidates galore for the nomination.
One Republican leader, when asked
for a list of the candidates for publ
cation, remarked that the entire ros-
ter Of the Republican party might be
printed.
On the other hand, Democrats feel
uneasy over the outcome. There is a
scarcity of candidates. Anton L. Pet
tersen, of Passaic. upon whom the
Democrats banked, is said to have de
cided not to enter the race. He has
given out nothing official, as yet, how
ever.
The Petersen supporters are said to
have turned to District Court Judge
