With a remarkable display of nervo ho

even attending a theatre performance,
before collapsing un 12th street near

Finally admitting that ho had been shot,

tell who hud wounded him.
"This Is a private matter," ho muttered,
"and I'll deal out the law myself when I

little chsneo for recovery, he repeated
that he would get justice for himself.
"1 was shot by a. person closely con

Virdili said in paJ't:
This Is n splendid Idea. The poor con
sumers of bread should be protected and
the exportation of wheat should be
stopped. I believe in chnttty. but char
itv begins at home. The entire Influ
ence and energies of this department
l!l be used to insure to the consumers
of bread a full pound for their monev.
We will get after the bakers as soon
as the cost of bread goes up and the
dailv output of every Imkeshop In this
city will he Inspected for short loaves.
I regret that we cannot regulate the price
ourselves, beenuse, if we could, the spec
ulator who have stored away enormous
.inutilities of wheat and flour would not
be able to run the prices up as they are
doing. It seems to me that everything
U going up and the dealers say it is on
account of Ihe war. Kven the pHco of

What'a the war got to do with that?"
LOAF MIST WIUtlH A pucnd.
The law which compels a legal loaf of
bread to weigh a pound Is an ancient
statute that has been u, thorn In the sides
of generations nf bakers for US years.
II was passed In 1737, and though it has
been attacked times innumerable, it still
stands, vindicated by successive Legisla
tures and upheld by many court de
cisions, the last having been uttered in
1901. The statute says in port:
"All loaf broad made for sale in this
Commonwealth shall be eold by the
pound avoirdupois." The Courts say
that this means a pound loaf, no less.
For a time Mr. Vlrdln was under tho
impression that this old law was an
nulled by the new law of lDns affecting
weights and measures, and giving the de-

sage Well Received.
; TltKNTo.V, .Ian tj - From the wic be
I ginning of the oiunnlKiitioii of ihe lllSt'.i
Legislature here todtiv It was manlfes'
, that ninny things done by the Democratic
majority in the last two v ears are to be
1 undone by the present IScpuhlican lioliso
and Senate.
Senator Pierce, of t'nlnn. ftrpiibicau.
this afternoon Introduced the same grade
crossing elimination measure which Gov
ernor Wilson vetued In a stnrm of pro
test from the people of tile upper part
of the Stale. Pierce also put In his In
determinate franchise net, which th
Demnriiiis did not like when Wilson tvas
in the chair.
Court' s.v to the Indies was one of the
first considerations, when Mrs. Alexander
F. Jameson, of Lawrniirevlllc, president
of the State body of women against suf
frage for the sex. and Mrs. Clara Vnzlii,
of Kllzahoth, chairman of the State Kx
ecutive Committee of the antis. were
promised a hearing of Statewide Import
ance on January 25 next, on a resolution
to allow women to vote. The local
option lull of the Anti-Saloon League,
which provides for local option on the
county unit, was also allow oil to go In on
tho opening day. The economy and efii
clency bills wero also Introduced.
GOVJSn.VOirS MKSSAflK APPLAUDED.
The message of the Governor praising
the economy nnd efficiency commission
bills, consolidating State departments and
cutting down expenditures, was received
by the members of hoth Houses with ap
plause, when his message was rend. That
the Chief Executive did not commit him
self to any of the plans was considered
tight and proper.
The members also seemed to like iht
portion of the message in which he de
clared himself unalterably opposed lo l
ing UP the money the State will lecelvr
from the abandonment of the Morns
C'ina! ami allowing the A ppropi unions
Committee properly to dispense it for
State institutional work and for employ
ment In endeavors to lighten the taxes of
tha people with Stale aid, like road
building.
That portion of tho Governor's mes
sage where he said he was oppose .1 to
tax assessors longer being elected, and
urged that they be appointed nfler civ I
service examination and to work under
rules of the State Board of Kuualizalion
of Taxes in proper valuing of assess
ments, was considered a step In ad
vance. OJlGAMiVr!ON' OF LKOISLATL'ltK.
The organization of the two brandies
of Ihe Legislature was effected without
noteworthy incident in tho presence of
large audiences, the presence of women
in the spectators' seats giving an aspect
of brightness that contrasted pleasantly
with tho dismal weather conditions.
There was an abundant floral display in
both Senate and House. Senator Walter
E. Kdse, of Atlantic, was chosen presi
dent of the Senate, and Carlton Godfrey,
.-Iso of Atlantic, was made Speaker of
the House. Upton 8. Jeffreys, of Cam
den, was elected Clerk of tho House.
A protest against the seating of Arthur
M. Agnevv, Edgar A- PeYou and John J.
Johnson, the three Bergen County Demo
cratic Assemblymen, was offered by
Judge lUinyon, who is the Republican
majority leader. Jt camo in the form of
u, resolution asking that their seats be
declared vacant oa tho ground that they
were not elected properly, and was re
ferred to the Committee on Elections, a
llcpublican committee which will icport
later.
The resolution recited that there were
COO Democratic votes excluded in Itergen
County In the reccount between Archi
bald 31. Hart and John D. Prince for
Congress, and. therefore, the exclusion
of these ballots fur the Congressmen
should be for the Assembb man. too. thus
defeating the Pcmucrutie Itepresentu
lives In the lower house and giving the
majority to the Bepubltcan three who are
contesting the seats. It is believed that
the Republican Klectlon Committee will
not unseat the Bergen Democrats, as the
protest was not offered until after they
had been sworn Into office as Assembly

reunited a six-hour debate and tlnnl vote
On the Mondell woman suffrage resolu
tion lcfore adjournment tonight.
Tho r solution, which provides for an
aim mlnieiit to the Constitution of the
I'nltcil States, giving women the ballot,
will reach a vote probably at 8 o'clock
tonight. Women who are leaders in both
tho s iffiago and anti-suffrage associa
tions of the country thronged the gal
leries of the House to witness what many
believe will prove to be tho last attempt
to make suffrage a national rather than
a State Issue.
The vote is not indlcatix'e of the line-up
on the suffrage issue Itself. Scores of
members who are opposed to the Mondell
resolution voted for the special rule to
give it a privileged status, "to settle the
question once and for all.

SUNDAY IX FINK l-'OiiM.
Hilly Sunday wns In excellent spirits,
after his day of rest at Atlantic City nnd
Chelsea. His voice seemed much im
proved over what It was nt the close
of the three big meetings on Sunday
night. He wns vigorous und. without a
falter, he hammered his sermon on hy
pocrisy Into the minds of his auditor
with Ids fists rattling down upon tho
pulpit nnd his athletic body whirling and
svvavlng and racing over the platform.
"You can put n library on eveiv enrner
nnd let. every church member ! a col
lege graduate mid that will never save
you from hell." he .veiled. "You need the
old-time religion. You don't need more
culture or money, but n Hood tl.lt- of re
demption. You can have your cluns, lit
erary societies, but that will never save
any one."
Never has Hilly preached more In
earnest. The great tidal wave of con
verts that flowed forward and engulted
Mr. Sunday and Ills assistant at the.
platform, following the two Invitations on
Sunday, seemed to enthuse him to extra
vigor. He had never seen un.v thing like
it. Ills eyes and his words showed it this
afternoon.
"Do you suppose God wants to ..olt
through eyes red with the dissipation of
the night spent In debauchery?' Hilly
howled at the attentive listeners. "Ho you
suppose Clod wants to work with hands
that are lifting a beer glass one moment,
a deck of cards or a dirty novel the next?
Do jou suppose God wants to use f.et
that can walk into a booze joint or a
house of Ill-fame one night and into a
church on the next? Don't jou know
that your body Is the temple of the n,.y
Spirit and you have the right to keep
It clean?
a STinniNa appeal.'
The Holy Spirit will not live among
timburger cheese, Anhuser-lluch or
Pabst. It will not swim in tobacco juicg
up to its eyes. You have a right to Keep
oiir body clean."
It was a stirring appeal for the men
ami women to live the kind of lives the
professed, and many of the audience shed
tears during some of his saddest stories
of t i.e dangers of hell for those who vvc.e
hypocrites, and of the miserable lives m
Mine for those who follow the hlghvvav
of sin and sham, and disgrace God and
llts church.
