Court Refuses to Take
Charge of Simon Loeb
Petition of Son Refused by JUS
tice Lydon, Who Says Plea is
Not Made in Good Faith

Justice Lydon yesterday refused to
grant the petition of Emanuel Loeb for
the appointment of committee of the
person and property of his father,

Street, which action was opposed by
the wife, three daughters and two
brothers-in-law Of the alleged incompe-

After referring to the physical dis
abilities of Mr.. Loeb. Justice Lydon

cumstances OR surroundings of his
father, who is now receiving the care
full attention and affection of his wife

Bugbee Tells Voters He Will
Fight for Expenditure of
$l,OOO,OOO to Reclaim
Lands and Danish Pest

RED BANK, N. j., Aug. 3o.-An at
tempt at the determination of the New
Jersey mosquito is the promise given
the Republican voters Of this state BY
Newton A. X. Bugbee, one of the four
candidates for the nomination for Gov
ernor, if he heads the party ticket and
is elected at the next election.
The promise was made to-day to
crowds of enrolled voters who gath
cred to hear him speak at Allentown

Bright, Atlantic Highlands, Manasquan
Belmar, Asbury Park, Bradley Beach
$1,000,000 would be appropriated for
the purpose of retaining waste lands
where the mosquitoes thrive.
Bugbee Declares Platform
In his speech here tonight Mr.. Bug
bee said:
"If am elected Governor I will use
the cost of living; l will advocate leg
islation for the detection and punish
ment of all profiteers; I will give my
best service for the development of
agriculture and in creating such i'm
provements in marketing facilities as
will make a convenient and economical
interchange between the producer and
the consumer: will press to the utter
most the building Of the New Jersey

so deeply interested.
Il have worked in behalf of the ship

the greatest benefits that could be con-

Il will seek the reclamation of waste
lands in New Jersey and the exter-

That's worth while undertaking.

81 favor such humane laws as will
conserve the lives Of men, women and
children. Human energy is the great
est wealth of the state, but we have
been thoughtlessly and extravaeantly
spending it for years. We need more
child hygiene, more physical training,
recreation for those who work in shops

MORRIS PLAINS, N. j., Aug. 3d.
There are circuses and circuses, from
pretentious Barnum and Bailey shows
to the little county fair, but brand
new variety came ipto being here yes
terday that seemed q vindication Of the
sanity of the man who coined the
phrase that genius is mad"
1t was a circus that brought tears to
the eyes as we'll as laughter to the
lips of those who watched it. The
-Four Ding" circus, as it was called,
was the triumphant episode of the
grand annual field day of the New Jer-
sey State Hospital, held on the athletic
field at Greystone Park. Every actor,
from the educated orang-outang to the
clown, was an inmate Of the institution
and the victim of some phase Of insan-
ity or mental deficiency.
Every scrap of stage property, from
the frill around the clowns neck to the
snakes charmed by "Rosatina," was pro-
duced at home and represented the in
dustry and the ingenuity Of the pa
performers throughout, and for sheer
funniness and originality they would
be hard to beat as entertainers.
Each Chose Own Role
Absolute freedom was given them in
choosing their own roles. 1t was
every one to his fancy, and strange was
the outcropping of whimsical and en-
ratio bent. The man who imagines
himself king and establishes a court
wherever he goes sported around
adorned with tin crown that sug-
gested Old King Cole. The man who
recited "Ostler jim" until it got on
his nerves and became a dangerous
obsession rode AROUND as jockey on
an Imaginary horse. The inmate
"haunted with devils" did himself up
in the scarlet guise of Mephistopheles
and felt happy about it,
The circus was put on in the fine
athletic field of Greystone Park,
flanked with the hospital buildings and
rows of shady trees. All the seats in
the grandstand were reserved for in
mates Of the institution and, in addi-
ton, some three thousand spectators
from all parts of the state witnessed
the affair. The hospital band fur
nlshed the music and Everett Fisher
