One of Largest Batohes
Ever Presented.

More than one thousand prospective
citizens are to be examined in the
Court of Common Pleas Monday. 1t

tons ever filed at one time, and 1t
will require at least six days to pass
on all the candidates for United

All applications received up to June

next week. Those filed after this
date will be taken up at another time.
Some time ago County Clerk Joseph
MeDonough issued a notice, stating
that the court would hear at least
one thousand applications, and sVg-
gested that all petitions be presented
early. All next week, with the excep-

down to the station with Denison,
who took an earlier express train Tor
New York.
Tallman knew that two minutes be-
fore the S03 o'clock express train
which originated at Hillsdale there
was another express which made no
stop at that station.
Neighbors who were about to board
the s:03 train noticed Tallman about
five minutes before that. He was sit
ting on the steps of the grocery store
acorss the track from the depot.
When he saw the express train ap-
preaching, Tallman arose and walked
out as though he intended to board
the S.03 train which would pull into
the station as soon as the SOL whizzed
by. Then, so 1t appeared TO the spec
tators who were not close enough TO
restrain him, he deliberately ran
toward the track. The result was
that the beam above the "cow-
catcher" struck Tallman and threw
him 10 the ground with such force
that his skull was crushed and his
! left leg was broken. The initial inn
| pact also caused the body to rebound
along the side of the track for about
| forty feet.

SAYS SLUTSKY
ATTACKED HIM


was interested to know the prog
ress of the work on the synagogue
because the New Year services to be
held Wednesday night and Thursday
could not be held unless the iron work
was completed.
At the synagogue he says he found
Jacob Steinberg, president of the con-
gregation and metal cornice manu-
facturer at 229 Belmont avenue, en-
gagged in a dispute with a man who
refused to give his name but subse-
quently proved to be Moss.
Steinberg and Moss had come to
blows, the detective said, and Stein
berg told Slutzky that the cause of
the fight was demand by Moss for
$25 cash Immediately or a strike would
be called tying up the synagogue job
over the holidays. Steinberg did not
say that Moss made the demand of
him, but he had been told by the fore
man of the job that Moss had made
the demand.
The detective says that he merely
demanded to know Moss's name and
occupation and when the information
was refused took the man to the pros
ecutor's office, so that he might be
properly identified should Steinbers

later decide to bring action against
him for the assault. Moss was re-
leased, Slutzky says, as soon as Hen
ry f. Hilfers, secretary of the Essex
Trades Council identified him.
About two months ago strikes were
called on several building Jobs by the
union of which Moss is the local
agent. About 100 men employed In
erecting fire escapes and cornices
comprise the membership They de-
manded a nine-hour day and an in
crease In wages. After about three
weeks the strikes were called off, bue
no announcement ever was made OF
the basis Of settlement aside from the
general statement by the men that
they had won.
The first firm to make peace with
the strikers, 1t was said today, was
Kapchen & Rabinowitz, of 201 Nor
folk street, who has the contract on
the synagogue.

The ONLY SUCCESSFUL
TREATMENT FOR LIQUOR
AND DRUG USING

The KELLEY TREATMENT re-
moves the craving for Liquor and
Drugs and leaves the man master of
himself. IT is THE ONLY TREAT
MENT THAT WILL DO THIS, and
the only one that cures alcoholic
and drug inebriety. This treatment
has restored over 100000 men and
women who we're addicted to liquor
and drugs; among the number are
over 10000 physicians. 1t is the
PIONEER in this work and has
many imitators, but no rivals or
competitors as far as RESULTS are
concerned.
During the THIRD OF A CEN
TURY that this treatment has been
continuously and successfully ad-
ministered, nearly two thousand i'm
itation, or alleged "cure" concerns
have started out as our competitors;
today scarcely a dozen survive. Some
of them so closely initiate our claims,
literature. ETC., to such an extent, as
to indicate a predetermined intent
to deceive.
They appear under almost every
conceivable name. fool the people
for a little while and pass on into
oblivion, forgotten by the public, but
not by the unfortunates whom they
deluded and duped into trying their
methods. The one regrettable fea-
ture Is that they should be able to
deceive any through false preten-
sions. or with their absurd and pre-
posterous claims, for in many cases
they drive all hope and confidence.
out of the lives of those whom they
have thus misled.
II you need to take treatment for
the Liquor or Drug addiction, inyes-
tigate THE KELLEY TREATMENT,
a treatment that is known the world
around and which is recognized by
the public and the medical profess
sion as the SUCCESSFUL TREAT
MENT for these sddictions. Look
up some OF our former patients,

munity. They are healthy, happy
