pions of New Jersey, as neither E. P.
Larned, the present champion of the
men’s singles, nor Miss Alice Day, of
the ladies’ singles, were present to
defend their titles, the former being
with the Peary expedition and the
other playing in the inter-city match
•at New York.

finals of the mixed doubles and the
men’s consolation singles were finished
after a number of interesting matches.

SEEKS CHILD IN MORRISTOWN
Rensselaer, 2S. Y., Man Looking for
nis Little One.
After searching for three weeks for
his wife and five-year-old daughter,
who had left his home on Labor Day,
Sanford A. Moeller, of Rensselaer, N.
Y., learned that they were boarding at
the home of Theodore Denman, 56
Water street, this town. For two
days Moeller and a lawyer,. Lester W.
Block, of Albany, have been here
planning to get possession of the
child. They were not successful, as
the child was kept off the streets and
on Saturday the mother and child
left town. Moeller left here Sat
urday night in hopes of picking up a
trail which would lead him to dis
cover where the mother had gone.
Moeller is a musician in the Empire
theatre, in Albany, and or returning
home' from work on Labor Day after
noon found, he asserts, his wife and
child were gone. A few days latter a
little boy told Moeller that he heard
“Happy,” as they called the child,
say that she and here mother were go
ing to Morri^pwn.
Moeller lost no time in getting here
with his lawyer. On hearing that
both were at the Denman home.
Moeller went there but failed to see
the child.
Some time before his wife left him,
Moeller said, he had several little
quarrels with her over the education
of the girl. Mrs. Moeller is a Roman
Catholic, while Moeller attends a
Protestant church. Several years ago
they separated, he said, but she
wanted to go back, so he took her.
At that time he kept possession of the
child. __
Climbs Steep Uoonton Hill.
Roland Mayer drove his eighteen
horse-power Buick car to Boonton re
cently for the purpose of climbing
School street hill, which is a twenty
one per cent grade and is considered
one of the steepest hills in the state.
After looking the machine over and
loading up with gasoline, the attempt
was made and to the surprise of many
lookers-on the car made the hill with
much ease. Only one other car has
ever been known to have climbed this
rough cobbled street. Mayer had his
chauffeur and a friend in the car with
him when the ascent was made.
Lackawanna Bowling League.
There will be a meeting of the
officials of the Lackawanna Bowling
league this week. New officers will

He Bode on the Truck.
“I didn’t know it was against the
law and I’ll never do it again,” was
Tony Denunzio’s plea to Mayor Alex
ander Bennell, after being arraigned
before His Honor for riding to the fire
Sunday on the truck. Denunzio who
is sixteen years old, was caught by
Driver William Ridge and turned over
to the police after he caught his ride
on the apparatus. Mayor Bennell was

of the police justices and he let the
lad off with a reprimand.

No. 14 Washington St. Morristown, N. J.
MR. COMLY’S
. CHANGES
/
His Defense of the Organization
Two Years Ago Makes
Him Ridiculous Now.
Mr. FOWLER CHIDES HIM
As William F. Comly has bacome a
continuous and voluminous writer for
the independent papers, declaiming
against what he alleges to be “ boss
ism ” in Morris county, it is in order
to inquire into the reasons for this
change of heart so recently. For in
stance, during the new idea campaign
two years ago, Mr. Comly rushed into
print and under the hearing “To Re
publican Voters: ‘Never Swap -Hor
ses While Crossing the Stream,’ ” he
said: “I am a firm believer in party
organization and party leadership, but
away with the Boss whose loyalty to
the party or to the people’s represen
tatives is assured by their personal
allegiance to him; who love his party
only because or when he can to com
pel his party to serve him.
“An investigation of the new move
ment has led me to believe that not a
few of the mei! in its ranks are disap
pointed office-seekers. Disgruntled
over the failure of their efforts, they
are venting their spite against the par
ty whose wisdom prevented it from
placing them in positions of responsi
bility, by leaving its ranks and hurling
missiles against it from a distance.
Inis very fact in itself—that the new
movement contains many disappoint
ed office-seekers—should retard if not
prevent a man from entering its ranks.
“To speak of our rwn county let me
say that the general welfare of the
people has never been subordinated to
the party organization. Morris has as
good if not better organization than
can be found anywhere in the State.
Bo^sism in the sense of one man’s
“running things” is unknown. An in
stance of this was when the people of
Pequannock in 1902 sought the nomi
nation of a man from their town to fill
the office of sheriff. There was no
consulting any so-called "Boss.” Pe
quannock simply placed her man in
nomination, and he was elected on his
own merits by the voice of the people;
and this condition prevails throughout
the county.”
After setting forth the beneficent
results from Republican administra
tion of National and State affairs,
growing out of harmony in the party,
he closes:“Why should there be any
breach, in her ranks, and the party di
vide into opposite camps and waste
its ammunition on each other instead
of concentrating its thought and ener
gy upon the great work of establishing
more deeply the principles of liberty,
equality and fraternity in the body
politic?
“WILLIAM F. COMLY.”
It should bo remembered that attl e
time of writing the above referred to
article Mr. Coiply was holding a posi
tion in the New York custom house,
which position he had secured through
the good offices of the county Republi
can organization. In a short time his
difficulties with the superior officers
furnished “good copy” for the New
York dailies and considerable space
was given to them. After appealing
from the decisions of his immediate
superiors up to the President without
avail, Mr. Comly found himsely out of
the service, in spite of the efforts of
the party leaders here. He, of course,
blamed them for his predicament and
but a short time ago Informed the
treasurer of the county committee that
he would support the party if he was
reinstated. That his present attitude
is believed to be the result of his los
ing his position is shown by the fol
lowing letter sent to him by Congress
man Fowler:
“Sept. 16, *908.
“William F. Comly, Esq.,
“New York City.
Dear Mr. Comly:—I was sorry to
hear yesterday that you are opposing
Mr. Voorhees. I will recall his inter
est in your behalf when you were seek
j ing the office of Assistant Appraiser,
and it was only recently that he spoke
strongly to me about getting you re
instated.
"In my experience of six years with
Mr. Voorhees, I have become convinc
ed that he is an ideal leader of his
party; one who seeks to learn the will
of the people and 'then to paake it ef
fective. Such leaders-we^'should have,
or else a party becomes a disorgan
ized mob. No one is more opposed
than I to a political boss; and I know
of no one who In his purposes and
methods is further removed from a
boss than Mr. Voorhees.
“I sincerely trust that if you have
any fteling of gratitude to me for the
interest I have been glad to take in
you that you will cease your opposi
tion to Mr. Voorhees, the more so that
I know he is a good friend of yours.
“Sincerely yours,"
Further comment is unnecessary ex
cept to say that Mr. Comly has writ
ten to Mr. Mills that he cannot sup
port him because he Mr. C.) is no
longer a Republican and does not ex
pect to affiliate with the party. Hence
he has no call to interfere.
ANOTHER VIEW OF MR, COMLT.
To the Editor of the ChroDclie.;
Dear Sir:—I was very much amus
ed at a letter copied by you from the
columns of the Boonton Bulletin and
signed by Wm. Comly, who claims
to hail from Lincoln Park, concerning
the Republican fight for County Clerk,
with side remarks on Uncle Dan and
the regular organization generally.
It is passing strange that a one-time
politician who aspired to be a “Boss”
and who, by the grace of those in a
position to assist him, secured a lu
crative office in the New York Custom
House in which he couldn’t “make
good,” should assume to teach the Re
publicans of Morris Co. how to vote at
the coming primaries. If my memory
serves me right Mr. Comly is a back
number and has been since he was
forced to resign his position. His trou
bles began when he claimed to know
more than his superiors, and now, be-,
cause the so-called county machine
“with all the King’s horses and all
the King’s men could not place Hump
ty Dumpty (Comly) where he was
again,” he “squealed” and became a
“reformer,” ,Lord save the mark!
What do you think of that? Alas, poor
Yorick! How extremely sad it is to
find an individual, bereft of office, of
I honors, of sense,—of everything in
|fact, inveighing against what, in his
distorted mind, he calls the “Bosses.”
He even forgets, in his mad fancies,
that he promised to support Mr. Mills
for the office of County Clerk.
And speaking of County Clerks, re
minds me that no matter what Mr.
I Comly thinks or, says about. Uncle Dan,
j every lawyer and every judge in the
j county, in fact every person having
business to transact with the clerk’s
office, knows that to Mr. Yoorhees
more than to any other person is due
the credit of having made it the model
office of the State.
Yours,
Adv. WILLIAM H. THOMPSON.
MRS. KISSEL'S WILL
All Her Property Lett to Her Husband
Rudolph It. Kissel and to Children.
Surrogate Young has admitted Jo
probate the will of Mrs. Caroliue Mor
gan Kissel, who died recently. Mrs.
! Kissel directs that the share of her
I father’s estate left her by her mother,
Mrs. Caroline Morgan, and the share
| her father bequeathed to her oe placed
in the hands of the United States
Trust' company, of New York, as
trustee, the income derived being paid
to her husband, Rudolph H. Kissel.
On Mr. Kissel’s death the property is
to be divided among her children, the
trust company holding each child’s
share in trust until he or she become
twenty-five years of age.
To her husband she left all her
household goods, jewelry, watches,
personal ornaments, apparel, pictures,
silver, horses and carriages.
All the rest of the property is left
with the trustee, Mr. Kissel being
paid the income until his death and
then it is to be divided among the
children.
Mrs. Kissel named her husband and
David Percy Morgan as executors in
the will which was dated August 7
1697. In a codicil dated January 5,
1906, Mrs. Kissel revoked Mr. Morgan’s
appointment and named Gustave E
Kissel in his stead. If he is unable to
serve Horace Bacon, head bookkeeper
for Kessler & Company is to take his
place.
In the codicil Mrs. Kissel direc’s
that Inamere Farm is not to be sold
during Mr. Kissel’s life without his
consent and also provides that he may
either rent it at an annual rental of
•W or purchase it for $50,000.
NEED NOT PRAY IN SCHOOL
State Superintendent Issues Ruling
Giving Clilltlren’s Parents Final Say.
C. J. Baxter, state superintendent
of public schools, has issued a decision
to the effect that public school child
ren need not participate in the rell
gious exercises conducted in the class
[ rooms or assembly halls unless their
! parents are satisfied to have them do
| so. He says that no child will be com
' pelled to take part in the prayers in
J school if his parents object.
This decision is the outcome of a
case that has been fought by Arthur
Watts, of River Edge, N. J. His two
children, aged eight and eleven, respec
tively, attend school in that place
He objected to them taking part in
the prayers and the reading of the
Bible In the school, and the conse
quence was that the children were
'given the alternative of remaining
away from school or praying with the
other children.
They remained away from school,
and Mr. Watts carried the case to the
state superintendent, and that official
has just rendered his decision.
Tbey Would Find Henry.
Detectives are searching for Henry
Stiles, of Newark, who was released
from the county jail on Wednesday of
last week after serving thirty days for
larceny. A page of three blank checks
was abstracted from Sheriff George
Shaw’s check book and one of the
checks was cashed at the National
Iron bank Saturday morning for $59.09
by a man answering Stiles’ description.
The check was made out payable to
bearer for current expenses and the
signature of Sheriff Shaw was forged.
Stiles was a trusty while serving h4s
term and was engaged in j'nitorial
work, having access to the sheriff’s
offices and he is under suspicion of ab
stracted the blank checks.
Wills Probated.
The wills of William Franks, of But
ler, and Timothy C. Beach, of Boon
ton, have been admitted to probate by
Surrogate David Young. All of Mr.
Frank’s personal property and his two
insurance policies are left to Mr. and
Mrs. George B. Williams, who are
named as executors. All the real and
personal property belonging to Mr.
Beach he left to his wife, Mrs. Sarah
Jane Beach, and she is appointed ex
ecutrix.

Mysterious Kidnapping.
Ellen Feltz, live-years-old, was kid
napped Thursday by a man believed
to be her father from Edward Bab
bington’s residence on Western ave
nue, just beyond the city limits. A
stranger drove up to W. M. Davis’
store and after buying cakes and post
cards, loitered about until he located
the child playing across the street.
He went up to the little one and say
ing : “ Can’t I have this little girl ”
to a boy nearby, picked the child up
and got into his buggy and drove
away. From a description of the man
given to Mrs. Miller, the child’s grand
mother, who is employed in a Wash
ington place residence, it is thought
the man was her father. The girl had
been boarded with the Babhingtons
for two weeks and was from Yonkers.
No reason is knownfor the kidnapping.
Mrs. Blanche Feltz, was in Morris
town, on Saturday, in an effort to dis
cover the identity of the man who
drove away with her little girl. After
hearing the descriptions of witnesses
to the kidnapping, she seemed satisfied
that it was her husband, Clifford
Feltz, who took the child. She said :
“If Cliff has her I know little Ellen
will be safe; he’ll not ill treat her.”

on the grounds witfi ample accommo
dations, both single and box stalls, for
the benefit of exhibitors, replacing the
temporary sheds that have been con

not been altogether satisfactory. It
is hoped that exhibitors will avail
themselves of these accommodations
and thus aid the Show, instead of en
gaging space for horses and vehicles
elsewhere.
There are fifty-one classes this year
and generally speaking the features are
very similar to those of previous
Shows, except in a few particulars
where the committee has sought to
embody changes that it was thought
would be more acceptable to the resi
dents of Morristown and vicinity.
In the local classes this year any
resident of New Jersey may make an
entry, whereas, in former years this
class was restricted to residents of
Morris and Somerset counties. This

Edward P. Dully in the Newark
11 Star” says”:
Eddie Barrett, of Orange Valley, is
playing a nice game at tirst base for
the Parksides, of Morristown. 1 can
not see why he does not catch. He is
a better man than Mike Quick, of
Boonton, who lately assumed that job.
Dully evidently thinks all good ball
players come from Essex county, bub
we have a few in Morris, thank you,
Eddie. “ Bob” Barrett had played
third base with the Seton Hall Col
lege team for several seasons and also
managed the team season before last
and has played several iniield positions
with the locals since joining them and
pernaps he could go behind the bat if
necessary, eh “ Bob.”
