The pageantry committee of the
Committee of One Hundred sent out
an IS. o. s." for 100000 people last
night, not to act in the Newark pag-
cant or to help get it ready, but to
sit in Weequahic Park and watch 1T
produced. The committee discussed
the 40.000-seat grandstand it is going
to build, and then faced the problem
of how to get the seats filled.
The members decided a series of
publicity meetings in every part or
the city. with everything possible
done to get the public to attend them
and so acquire pageant enthusiasm,
is an absolute necessity
They felt the problem began and
ended in getting the public informed
on what the pageant is. To accom-
plish this the programs of the meet
ings will have to be of such nature
as to be highly interesting in them
selves, for the very features that will
best convey the information will at
the same time possess the entertain
ment element in a high degree. One
method to be employed is the exhibit
ton of motion pictures of the st.
Louis pageant in 1914. Another Will
be dancing by Miss Mary Porter
Beegle. dancing directress of the

Typical Program.
Pageant Master Thomas Wood
Stevens will read portions of the
book of the pageant on some occa-
sions, and on others representatives
of the pageant committee will read
from the book. A typical program
will include the motion pictures
portion of the pageant dancing, a
portion of the book, and short ad-
dresses upon the pageant. The COM
mittee believes that every audience
that gives its attention to such
program will go away rabid pageant
fans.
One such meeting has been held,
under the auspices of the Contem-
porary Club. Another will be held
early in February. likely on the
tenth, when both the Board of Trade
and the Contemporary Club will CO.
operate with the pageantry commit
tee. The expense will be borne by the
committee. The meeting will be in
Wallace Hall.
The pageantry committee decided 10
publicity committee should finance
this campaign. The pageant budget
makes no allowance for advertising.

Continued from First Page)

It was published on the bare state
ments of one man only and was
slanderous and questioned the integ-
rity of the court and of the prosecu-
tor, it could not be adjudged other
than contempt.
WINS testified that he had intended
no contempt of court in writing the
headlines for the story and in editing
it. and believed that il was justifiable
when based on the assertions of YER
don. William Reubel also testified
that no contempt was intended.
The right of Justice Swayze and
Judge Sullivan to sit with Judge Ten
nant was challenged by Merritt Lane,
counsel for Nerdon. He based his
challenge on the grounds that the
contempt was of personal nature
and was not contempt of court. The
motion was denied by Justice Swayze.
This was followed by another mo-
tion by Counsellor Lane that the rule
to show cause was defective, and the
court had no authority to issue It,.
This contention was also denied by
Justice Swayze.
The case opened with Justice
Swayze, Judge Tenant and Judge
Sullivan sitting in review of the tes-

ian Besson, OF Hoboken, represented

of Haddon Wins and William Reubel
were in the hands of former State
Senator William d. Edwards and
John Milton, of Jersey City. Secre-
tary of State Thomas F. Martin,
owner of the Hudson Dispatch, was a
spectator.
Byrne on Stand Again.
The first witness called was j.
Francis Byrne, reporter on the staff
of the Hudson Dispatch, who testified
that he was assigned to interview
Richard Doherty, counsel for sam
uel w. Smith, whose recent trial for
conspiracy in the notorious Hotel
Crefeld case, instigated the allega-
tions which resulted in the printing
of a story in the North Hudson news
paper to which Judge Tenant took
exception.
Byrne said that he was unable to
secure an interview with Doherty and
so reported to his editor, Haddon
WINS. who told him to interview Will
lam p. Verdon, an intimate friend
of Smith, and who figured as q wit
ness In his trial.
For two hours, Byrne said, he talk
ed with Verdon and then wrote q
story based on the talk. He testified
that the story published was not al

Doherty was next called to the
stand and he emphatically denied
that he had told Verdon that he was
going to Trenton last Monday and
apply to the Legislature for the in.
stitution of impeachment proceedings
against Judge Tenant, Of the Court
of Common Pleas, in which the Smith
case was heard. and Prosecutor Rob-

Copenhagen, August Piston Saturday
the King summoned the leadears of all the
parties and made the following speech. cit
is under serious circumstances that 1
have summoned you. The World War still
vehemently RACES and the nations stand
sharply against each other. In the past
year we have, God be praised, enjoyed the
blessings of peace, but uncertainty still exists
for us as two years ago. 1t is a great task
l have given you. Try and shake hands in
federation and for time forget the diferen-
ces between your parties. If you succeed I
believe it will become the most beautiful
page in Denmark political history, saying
that during a time of uncertainty for the
country each voter was represented in the
Kings Council. l wish you Gods blessing
for alternating the difficulties you have to
overcome.
The leaders went from the King to the
Caucuses, at which all declared they were
willing to negotiate about the formation offs

eion west of lake Nobel German attacks were
repulsed with heavy losses to the enemy.

the village of Rubka Chervizche we captur-
ed Tcherische farm and several heights.

about half a mile from the western corner
of High Wood. He succeeded in reaching
this line ut certain points, but was driven
out again by our infantry who Immediately
reoccupied the trenches. Hostile attacks
broke down under our artillery fire. North
of Bazentin lie Petit we today gained a fur
ther portion of enemy trenches. The enemy
hastily shelled different portions of our front,
especially High Wood, Hamel and Mailly.
Elsewhere there was nothing of Importance
to report. Despite the low clouds our air
craft did very useful work yesterday (Satur-
day. in communicating with our advanced
infantry. One of our machines coming down
to a low altitude opened a machine-gun
fire very effectively on enemy infantry
in front line trenches and also on hostile
reinforcements coming up communicating
trenches.
Paris, Aug. 2Oth.-The text of the official
statement is as follows North of the Somme
apart from an operation Of detail which per-
mitted us to eject the enemy from the por-
tion of the trenches he penetrated last night
north of Maurepas the day has been quiet.
Our troops actively pressed forward the work
of consolidation on the conquered front. The
artillery actions were of small Importance
in consequence of the bad weather. In the
Argonne we exploded a mine which checked
the enemy's advanced works in Vauquols.
On the right bank of the Meuse artillery
fighting continues actively III the Fleury-
aux-Chapitre section. There has been no
infantry actions and on the remainder of the
front there was no action of Importance.
Paris, Aug. 20tb.-The Germans made
several violent attacks on the Verdun front
last night in an effort to recapture
the village of Fleury taken last week
by the French. These attacks were re-
pulsed. The statement is as follows The
night was calm along the Somme front.
On the right bank of the river Meuse (Ver-
dun front) the enemy displayed great activ-
ity daring the night after an intense bonn
bardment lasting for several hours the Ger
mans made various attempts to recapture the
village of Fleury from us. All their attacks,
one of whichwas extremely violent,was repul-
sed by our fire. The enemy suffered severe
losses and left some prisoners in our hands.
At about the same time the Germans at
tackled our trenches northwest Of Thiau-
mont work, there also our curtain of fire.
and our machine guns inflicted upon them
q sanguinary check. In Lorraine a surprise
attack by the enemy against one of our
maj posts near Veho WAS repulsed easily.
Pmis, Aug. 2Oth-The text of the state
ment tonight is as follows. North of the
Somme we carried a wood strongly organ
lied by the enemy between Guillemont and
Maurepas. A large quantity of war mate
rial remains in our hands. Our batteries
showed great activity on the whole Somme
front. Everywhere else there were gusts
of artillery fire except in the Fleury sector
where the enemy violently bombarded the
village.

Washington, July 13.-Charles Z.

Health Service, is on his way East from
Milwaukee, and, with twelve other off,
GERS Of the service, will go to New
York in an effort to prevent further
spread of the infantile paralysis epi-
demic. The measure was decided upon
after a conference between Secretary
McAdoo and members OF the Public
Health Service.
There will be no quarantine against
New York, it was announced. The
work of the Federal health officers will
consist largely Of sending warnings to
local officers throughout the country
where children who have been exposed
to the disease are departing for their
jurisdictions. The physicians of the
service already in New York will re.
main in charge of the curative and
preventive work. The work Of DR..
Banks and his associates, it is said,
will be far more exacting, because OF
the vast amount of detail connected
with it. than any direct combat with
the disease.

Fine Type of Dairy Cow.

low inverted conical shape. Such an
udder does not add to the beauty and
symmetry of the animal and too often
its dangling, swaying motion in travel
is a source of irritation. 1t cannot
possibly be expected to give as good
results as a blocky compact ud6er of
equal size in each quarter and extend
ing we'll to the front and rear. The
teats should be of sufficient size to be
grasped firmly while milking. They
should be set squarely on the quarter
and be OF cylindrical rather than
COnical shape. The COW with a low
hanging bag and conical-shaped teats
is not choice animal to milk and il
will usually be found that she does
not do well at the pail.
Percentage has much to do with the
conformity of the cows udder, and
while the sire will influence this char
acteristic to a certain extent the func.
tiOn of the udder is not after his ma
ture and the dam will have to be de-
pended upon largely TO perpetuate
proper form in this regard. Practical
experience will prove that a heifer
calf will ordinarily have in a marked
degree the external milk organ char
acteristics Of her dam. 1t is therefore
doubly desirable that in the selection
of breeding stock close attention be
paid to the udder development.

UDDER DEVELOPMENT OF cow
Sufficient Importance Not Placed on
Dairy Characteristics by Dairy
Cattle Owners.

Many owners Of dairy cattle do not
place sufficient importance on the
purely dairy characteristics of the an.
imals they keep and breed. One of
the points often overlooked is udder
development, although 1t would seem
that this would be the first thing an
intelligent dairyman would look for in
the selection of a COW. While an oc-
casional COW with a small, hl-shaped
udder will give a good quantity of
milk, such animals are merely the ex.
ceptions which prove the rule that
good dairy cows should show good de.
of the milk organs.
