Miss Stimson said that her request

she might return to her duties here,
and altho she wished to resume her

did not wish 10 inconvenience the board
BY asking for indefinite leave. Mrs.

Miss Haeler to Rest.
Miss Hagler has been with the local
association as general secretary since
September 1914, and she retires TO
take a rest Of several months before
again returning TO association work.
When Miss Hagler came to this city
from Omaha il was with the thought
of remaining five years and that per-

pleted next September.
1t is Miss Hagier's plan TO rest dur
ing the summer months and 10 re-
sumo association work in the fall.
While she has rot fully decided on the
nature of her future service she may
enter student work OF the association.
Miss Hagler's resignation will not be

Man., Charged with killing Two,
is Recovering From Wounds

NEW BRUNSWICK, March 49,
Mike Cirbus, who shot and killed his
mother-in-law, Mrs. Elizabeth Mon
dies, and seriously injured his father
in-law in their home in Keasbey a
few weeks ago, has about recovered
from his wounds and is anxious to
leave his cell in the county Jail n
return to work. Cirbus, who will be
brought up for trial the first of next
month on the charge of murder. does
not seem to realize just how serious
his crime is.
Since he did the shooting Cirbus
has been at the county Jail under the
care of Warden William Goodwin,
who has taken care of his wounds
and succeeded in getting him up and
around. Cirbus does not appear to
be a criminal by his looks.
The bullet with which Cirbus tried
to end his own life entered his left
side just above the heart, followed
under the skin to the shoulder and
came out of his arm. Senator Thomas
Brown has been appointed by the
court to defend Cirbus.
