Jones Thought She Heard a liabv Cry, but She Vidn't. Georgianna Jones lives on Borden street. So do^Mr. and Mrs. E. Carroll. All of them are colored people. This morning Mrs. Jones told the officials of the board of health that she had heard a baby cry in Mra. Carroll's place during the night. She had gone to Mrs. Cnr- rol's door arid pounded on it but she could get no response. She was sure there had been a birth there during the nigl t and she thought that maybe "both the mother and the child were dead, Anyway she waB Bure there was some- thing wrong. . ' The officials went to 'the door and pounded on it. They did uob.get nny response either. Finally they went to the Globle hotel, where Mr. Carroll is' employed, and got him to go home with . them. He unlocked the door and the room was found to be in perfect order. He said his wife went away to work early in the morning and that she had made the bed and put things, to rights before she went away. He was very indignant that his neighbors should have tried to make trouble for him. A Suit Over a Turkey. Benjamin Allen Parker, who lives near Newman Springs/has brought suit against Cnnrles M.

Some of the marshals of Red Bank started in on Thursday night to enforce the ordinance of the town against riding a bicycle at night without a light. The ordinance has been.in existence for sev- eral years, hut it is enforced only spas- modically. . . « • It was agreed among the marshals that the enforcement of the ordinance should begin on Thursday night. Some of the marshals gave a. friendly warning to those whom they saw. riding without alight and advised them to get lamps on their bicycles or get out of town. Jacob B. Rue did not give any such warning: He grabbed every one he saw riding without a ligh't and took them before Justice Child. The first person arrested was Patrick Murphy of Fair Haven. He told the justice that he did not'know that an or- dinance against riding without a' light was in existence, and that if he had known it he "certainly would not have violated it. It was evident.that he told the truth. The justice said that a vio- lation of the ordinance was punishable by a fine of $5 and costs, but that as Mr. Murphy was the first offender he would let him off- by paying $1.50; the amount of the justice's and marshal's fees, and that he would deal the same with all offenders that night. Mr. Murphy did not have $1.50 with him and he was told tha£.,hiif bicycle would be kept as se- curity for the fine. Mr. Murphy said that.he.thought Philip Kuhl would go his security for the fine and Mr, Kuhl was sent for. He paid the fine and Mr. Murphy went on his way rejoicing. While Mr. Murphy's" case was being disposed of John and James Dowling, Fair Haven boys, were pulled in by Mr. Rue. One of them had a lamp on, his bicycle, but BB he had been riding in Red Bank for several years witiiout a light he did , not have the lamp lighted. Neither of. the boys had any money. It was suggested that the bicycle of one of the boys be kept as security while the other boy rode home and got the money to pay the costs. Edward Deacy, a spectator in the court room, got a busi- ness man who knows the boys' father to go their security and they were allowed to go. Charles Lewis, a colored man, was the next victim, and the costs in his case were paid by George Hawkins. The court room was tilled with people by the time thai these cases -were dis- posed of and remarks were heard on all sides that only out-of-town people—the little fish—were being caught. Marshal Rue went out and in a few minutes re- turned with, George Cooper, the civil engineer. Mr. Cooper was on bis way to sing at the parish reception of Trinity church at the town hall.- He asked to let the settlement of his case go over until the next day and his request was granted. John Mouserof Herbert street was also arrested and he gave security for the payment of his fine on Saturday. TWO SUITS FOR DAMAGES. .4. C. Cottrell of Oceanic Get* Ver- dicts of $150.50. The suits of Andrew C. Cottrell of Oceanic against the Matthews company of Red_Bailk were tried at Freehold last week. The Matthews company had a" contract to move eome buildings at Oceanic and in moving the buildings through the streets they had to cut off some.limbs from Botne of the trees along the road. Thev had previously got authority from the township committee' to move the buildings. When they were about to cut, the limbs off of one of Mr. "lottreU's trees he undertook to stop them and he and Ambrose Matthews had a sort of a hook-up. Mr. Cottrell brought suit ngainBt the Matthews com- pany for $-1,000 for assault, and he brought another suit for $500 for damage to his trees. •The case was to have been tried on Tuesday and a whole raft of witnesses on both sides were ou hand. The case was not tried that dny and all the wit- nesses were told to come back the next day, It was not tried the next day and the witnesses, -who had already wasted two days dancing attendance on the court, were tpld to coine again next day, and the case was tried that day. The evidence showed that the trees had been cut and that there had been an actual laying on of hands in the scuffle over the matter. When Mr. Cottrell was on the stand he got so excited tell- ing about the affair that he lost.MB sfclf- control, and Judge Fort threatened to plit him in jail for 24 hours if he did not Mcome more reasonable. The case was finished tho same day, the two suits be- ing tried at once by the same jury. Mr. Cottrell won both nuits. In tho assault case he wa'B awarded $188, and for the tree cutting he got$13.50, The expenses on both sides were verj heavy_. Robert Allen anjl Claries Henry Ivjns repre- sented Cottrell'and James E.

Both Parties Want to Get One of the AssetnbluCandtdatesfrom Shrews- bury Township—Democrats Per- fecting Their Organisation. The only candidatesto be voted for in Monmouth county next fall will be a governor*end three members of the as- sembly. Franklin Murphy has the best chance for the Republican nomination for governor, ana there are several Democratic aspirants for the nomina- tion, chief among them being Mayor Seymour of Newark and Judge Child's. Far more interest is taken in> Mon- mouth county in the nominations for assembly next fall than in the contest for governor. Judge Henry M. Nevius of Red Bank is the only Republican of prominence in Monmouth county who will gp_Dut of office during the term of the next governor, and his friends feel confident that he will be re-appointed, even if. the next governor should..be a Democrat. Judge Wilbur A. Heisley and Prosecutor John E. Foster hold over during the term of th.e next governor, and go out of office during the term of the succeeding governor. They "will therefore have no such personal interest in the campaign as they would have if they depended on the next governor for re-appointment. Their chief interest in the success of the Republican'pnrty will Ije to keep up the prestige of the'party and to make certain the election of a Republic governor in 1904. . There is some talk of re-nominating the three present members of assembly aB the Republican candidates, but such a step would probably end in defeat. The voters of Monmouth county have set their faces against third terms for as- semblymen. Almost invariably when men have been nominated for a success- ive third term for assembly they have been defeated. Time and time again the party making such nominations has gone down to defeat, and that, too, at times when it seemed impossible for the party making the nominations tobe de- feated. Each party wants to have one of its candidates for assembly come from Shrewsbury township. The reputation this township has gained of sticking to its own men makes them believe that' such candidates on either 1ick€t would run 200 or 800 votes ahead of the rest of the ticket here, and this might be enough to elect that man, even if the rest of the ticket did not pull through. The leaders on both sides are carefully looking over the .ground, and the strength of every, available man in the township is being guaged. ' •. . John S. Applegate, Jr., has been the ohoice of the loaders for the Republican candidate from Shrewsbury. He would have the strength of his father's reputa- tion behind him and he is very popular on his own account.' He has been urged very strongly to be a candidate. After thinking the matter over for a time he boncluded last week that it would be bet- ter for him to give hi3 whole attention kp his law business for the present, and h]e has announced that he will not be a candidate for the nomination. William H. Houston has been a candi- date for the aS8embly_nomination, and he was very anxious to be a~ca83idate", but his crushing defeat when he ran for commissioner a couple of weeks ago, puts him out of the race. Had he been defeated, even as badly as he was, in an election where the two contestants stoed on even terms, he might possibly have survived. But General John Sheehan, his opponent, -was running on a paster ballot, and none of Mr. Sheehan's tickets could be placed in the election booths or given out by the election officers. Mr. Houston's defeat by a vote of nearly 2 to 1 under these conditions would malse the rest of the county hesitate to nominate him, even if he should have the dele- gates from Shrewsbury township with him at the countyxonvention. Mortimer V. Pach, son of Morris Pach, ias announced himself as a candidate for. the nomination, and since Mr. Apple- gate has declined to lie a candidate he ias' received many offers of support. But it-is along time before the county conventionsrare held, and there may be changes in the condition of things before October. At present', however, it looks as though Mr. Pach would have, prncti? cally a solid delegation for him from Shrewsbury in the •onvention. On the Democratic side there is an anxious hunt for available candidates, The democrats who are interested in the re-organization of the party believe that with the work that will be done this summer and fall they will have an ex- cellent chance to airry the county. They are very desirous of doing so in order to have the party ingoodcondition for its big fight next year, when most of the county offices will become vacant. ( Juuiea E. Degnan would be their first choice for assembly from Shrewsbury if he would take it, but he has not shown the slightest inclination to do so. Mr. Dogniin is a great organizer and the Deinoorals believe that if lie were a candidate for any office he would Ree that the county was organized on a scale never before attempted. Ho ie practi- cally out of the question and so is Albert L. Ivins. Mr. Ivins is the assessor and a inan in that position is naturally very strpng before tho people. But Mr. Ivins, like Mr. Degnan, will not think of being a candidate. '.''••'.' tho. only other Shrewsbury man on tho Democratic Bide, who has been spoken of as a candidate is William Henry Hendrickson; Tho political virus in tho Hendrlokson blood and members of that family could no more keep from taking active interest in politics than a duck could. keep from swimming if it were put in water. Mr. Hendrickson has not yet announced his candidacy He has a pretty big barrel and barrelB are very handy, things to.have on. the premises in political fights. Like John S. Applegate, Jr., Mr. Hendrickson would have his father's reputation to help him and he is himself well kn&wn throughout the eastern part of the county. If he should take the'nomina- tion hewenld put up a big' figt)t, Imt he says he is not looking for the nomina- tion this year. • • In the rest.of the county not s« much interest has been taken in the assembly nominations as in Shrewsbury. Shrews- bury is more of a.political nest than any other township in the county, not even excepting Freehold,.and the political pot' is boiling in Shrewsbury all the time. It is generally understood that none of the candidates for county offices next year will come from Shrewsbury, and this leavesthe statesmen.of the rest of the county free to calculate on their chances of getting the prizes. -, The Democratic slate for county offices next year compriaes. David S. Crater for surrogate, of course. Henry S. Terhune, is the man the" Democrats want to run for senator if he will take the nomina- tion ; and for sheriff the choice seems to be between John Guire and William R, Joline, both of whom live at Long Branch. The Republican slate has the name of Oliver H. Brown for senator, Charles Asa Francis for sheriff, and any- body who will take it for surrogate. John W. Herbert will be the^Republican candidate for congress in case Mr. Howell does not want it again, and as Mr. Her- bert" is practically a Monmoutb county man this Would add to the interest in the fight. The Democrats are proceeding with their work of organizing the county and have called primaries for the election of the township executive committees. TheBe primaries will be held on Tuesday, June 4th, afifour o'clock. The places of holding the primaries and the number 6t delegates to which each township is entitled are as follows : , Atlantic-Hotel, Colt's Neck ,...10 Eatontown-Garrlsan's, Oceanport 10 Freehold - Richardson's, Freehold 19 Uolradel—Hotel, Holmdel 10 Howell—Strough's Hotel, Panntaiftlalo ..1" ManSlapan-Flemlng's, Engllshtown 10 Marlboro—Hotel.

Township meetings of the captains and leaders are to be held every two weeits and the Democratic :ounty leaders believe that by the time the oampMgn opens the party will be in the finest condition possible and will be, prepared to put up an amazingly strong right. . « »• A CHURCH ANNIVERSARY. Eat out own Methodists Celebrqt&ng Tlieir-JFlftieth Anniversary, •-: Services in celebration of tlie fiftieth" anniversary of the Eatontown Methodist church began on Sunday. At half-past nine o'clock a love feast was led by A. N. Sparks. The meeting was largely at- tended and was full of spiritual interest. Several were present who were- con- verted at the church when it was in its infancy. Following the love feast a ser- mon was preached by Rev. Thomas Hanlon. His theme was "The perpe- tuity of the church." At the afternoon service Rev. Edmund J. Kulp, pastor of Grace church of Red Bank, preached a fine sermon, his sub- "ect being " The Living God." At hight a Junior Epworth league ally was held under the direction of Miss Katherine Budd. Much credit i6 due Miss Budd for the flourishing condi- tion of the league. Recitations and songs were.given by the members of the league, and the pastor, Rev. Daniel Y. Ste ihens, gave an interesting talk to the children on "How we may please God." The principal address at the evening service was made by Rev. William H. Wardell, a former presiding elder of the New York east conference. Mr. War- dell' was an Eatontown boy and was brought up as a Quaker. He was con- verted early in life and joined the Eat- ontown Methodist church. He was the first licensed local preacher of the church. He preached a fine sermon on Sunday night and a large congregation turnejt--out to hear him. Services are being held every night tliia vreck.

The new drawbridge across the Shrews- • bury river at Seabright was formally opened to travel; on Saturday. The event was to have been celebrated at night bya parade of citizens'of the town, headed by a brass band. There was aluo to have been a display of fireworks, music and dancing on the new bridge! On account of the storm the celebration was postponed and it will take.place on Saturday night. _ . ' ' i At half-past five o'clock on Saturday afternoon the gates of the new bridge were thrown open. Four carriages and an automobile were lined up ready to cross the bridge. The automobile and two carriages were side by side and the other two carriages followed in the same . manner. In the automobile were Ex- Mayor P. Hall Packer and Henry Zobel, the owner of the automobile. There was a great cheer from the spectators as Mr. Packer and Mr. Zobel started across what waa termed " the twentieth cen- tury_ bridge in a twentieth century vehicle." John Guire, director of the board of freeholders, and William H. Elliott, mayor of Seabright, rode to- gether in one of the carriages of the- front row. In tbe other carriage were W. H. Denise, the engineer of the bridge i _ and Freeholder George B.' Snyder. Iii one of the carriages following was John , Burke, the foreman of the bridge work- ers, and his family.- Mrs. Charlotte' Cruser, a sister of Mr. Packer, was also in this carriage. In the other carriage were Mrs. Benjamin VanBrunt, Mrs. Percys Sherman and Mm, W. H. Sherman. There was considerable travel over tbe . bridge from the minute that it was opened. 1 After the bridge had been formally opened to travel a little " blow out" to celebrate the event was held at Pannaci's hotel. A light lunch and liquid refresh- ments were served. Speeches were made by John Guire. Mayor Elliott, P. Hall Packer, George B. Snyder, Dr. H. C. Cattenach of Long Branch, and W. T. Shedd, a summer cottager, at Seabright. Others present were W. H. Denise, Dr. Robert Dickison, John Burke, French Davis, time keeper for the bridge build- ers ; Thomas J. Sweeney and John Pol-' lard. . . . The new bridge is an impbsing struc- ture. Its most noteworthy feature is the. width of the roadway. .This is thirty feet in the clear and three wagons can pass each other side by side in safety. The planking of" tlie roadway runs lengthwise of the bridge and this jives an^even surface to the floer. A'" 'ootpath eight feet wide is on each side of the bridge. The bridge is 581 feet long and the draw is 220 feet. When the/draw is open it gives a clear water- way of eighty feet on each side of the center pier. The draw is to be operated by steam. The engine will be on an elevated plat- form in the middle of the draw. The engine house is not yet completed and in the meantime the bridge is being operated by an engine on a scow Ip-. catedin the(river. There isi no warning:~" on the bridge'againstdriving over the 'draw faster than a walk and it is under- stood that there will be no restrictions in this matter. The bridge will be lighted by electricity. A Japanese Tea. The, altar guild »*6f Christ church of Shrewsbury will give a Japanese tea in the parish house at that place to-night.

Some of the marshals of Red Bankstarted in on Thursday night to enforcethe ordinance of the town against ridinga bicycle at night without a light. Theordinance has been.in existence for sev-eral years, hut it is enforced only spas-modically. . . « •

It was agreed among the marshalsthat the enforcement of the ordinanceshould begin on Thursday night. Someof the marshals gave a. friendly warningto those whom they saw. riding withoutalight and advised them to get lampson their bicycles or get out of town.Jacob B. Rue did not give any suchwarning: He grabbed every one he sawriding without a ligh't and took thembefore Justice Child. •

The first person arrested was PatrickMurphy of Fair Haven. He told thejustice that he did not'know that an or-dinance against riding without a' lightwas in existence, and that if he hadknown it he "certainly would not haveviolated it. It was evident.that he toldthe truth. The justice said that a vio-lation of the ordinance was punishableby a fine of $5 and costs, but that as Mr.Murphy was the first offender he wouldlet him off- by paying $1.50; the amountof the justice's and marshal's fees, andthat he would deal the same with alloffenders that night. Mr. Murphy didnot have $1.50 with him and he was toldtha£.,hiif bicycle would be kept as se-curity for the fine. Mr. Murphy saidthat.he.thought Philip Kuhl would gohis security for the fine and Mr, Kuhlwas sent for. He paid the fine and Mr.Murphy went on his way rejoicing.

While Mr. Murphy's" case was beingdisposed of John and James Dowling,Fair Haven boys, were pulled in by Mr.Rue. One of them had a lamp on, hisbicycle, but BB he had been riding in RedBank for several years witiiout a lighthe did , not have the lamp lighted.Neither of. the boys had any money. Itwas suggested that the bicycle of one ofthe boys be kept as security while theother boy rode home and got the moneyto pay the costs. Edward Deacy, aspectator in the court room, got a busi-ness man who knows the boys' father togo their security and they were allowedto go. Charles Lewis, a colored man,was the next victim, and the costs in hiscase were paid by George Hawkins.

The court room was tilled with peopleby the time thai these cases -were dis-posed of and remarks were heard on allsides that only out-of-town people—thelittle fish—were being caught. MarshalRue went out and in a few minutes re-turned with, George Cooper, the civilengineer. Mr. Cooper was on bis wayto sing at the parish reception of Trinitychurch at the town hall.- He asked tolet the settlement of his case go overuntil the next day and his request wasgranted. John Mouserof Herbert streetwas also arrested and he gave securityfor the payment of his fine on Saturday.

TWO SUITS FOR DAMAGES.

.4. C. Cottrell of Oceanic Get* Ver-dicts of $150.50.

The suits of Andrew C. Cottrell ofOceanic against the Matthews companyof Red_Bailk were tried at Freehold lastweek. The Matthews company had a"contract to move eome buildings atOceanic and in moving the buildingsthrough the streets they had to cut offsome.limbs from Botne of the trees alongthe road. Thev had previously gotauthority from the township committee'to move the buildings. When they wereabout to cut, the limbs off of one of Mr."lottreU's trees he undertook to stopthem and he and Ambrose Matthewshad a sort of a hook-up. Mr. Cottrellbrought suit ngainBt the Matthews com-pany for $-1,000 for assault, and hebrought another suit for $500 for damageto his trees.

•The case was to have been tried onTuesday and a whole raft of witnesseson both sides were ou hand. The casewas not tried that dny and all the wit-nesses were told to come back the nextday, It was not tried the next dayand the witnesses, -who had alreadywasted two days dancing attendance onthe court, were tpld to coine again nextday, and the case was tried that day.

The evidence showed that the treeshad been cut and that there had been anactual laying on of hands in the scuffleover the matter. When Mr. Cottrellwas on the stand he got so excited tell-ing about the affair that he lost.MB sfclf-control, and Judge Fort threatened toplit him in jail for 24 hours if he did notMcome more reasonable. The case wasfinished tho same day, the two suits be-ing tried at once by the same jury. Mr.Cottrell won both nuits. In tho assaultcase he wa'B awarded $188, and for thetree cutting he got$13.50, The expenseson both sides were verj heavy_. RobertAllen anjl Claries Henry Ivjns repre-sented Cottrell'and James E.

CANDIDATES LOOMING UP,PREPARATIONS FOR THE COM-

ING POLITICAL FRAY.

Both Parties Want to Get One of the• AssetnbluCandtdatesfrom Shrews-

bury Township—Democrats Per-fecting Their Organisation.The only candidatesto be voted for in

Monmouth county next fall will be agovernor*end three members of the as-sembly. Franklin Murphy has the bestchance for the Republican nominationfor governor, ana there are severalDemocratic aspirants for the nomina-tion, chief among them being MayorSeymour of Newark and Judge Child's.

Far more interest is taken in> Mon-mouth county in the nominations forassembly next fall than in the contestfor governor. Judge Henry M. Neviusof Red Bank is the only Republican ofprominence in Monmouth county whowill gp_Dut of office during the term ofthe next governor, and his friends feelconfident that he will be re-appointed,even if. the next governor should..be aDemocrat. Judge Wilbur A. Heisleyand Prosecutor John E. Foster hold overduring the term of th.e next governor,and go out of office during the term ofthe succeeding governor. They "willtherefore have no such personal interestin the campaign as they would have ifthey depended on the next governor forre-appointment. Their chief interest inthe success of the Republican'pnrty willIje to keep up the prestige of the'partyand to make certain the election of aRepublic governor in 1904.. There is some talk of re-nominating thethree present members of assembly aBthe Republican candidates, but such astep would probably end in defeat. Thevoters of Monmouth county have settheir faces against third terms for as-semblymen. Almost invariably whenmen have been nominated for a success-ive third term for assembly they havebeen defeated. Time and time againthe party making such nominations hasgone down to defeat, and that, too, attimes when it seemed impossible for theparty making the nominations tobe de-feated.

Each party wants to have one of itscandidates for assembly come fromShrewsbury township. The reputationthis township has gained of sticking toits own men makes them believe that'such candidates on either 1ick€t wouldrun 200 or 800 votes ahead of the rest ofthe ticket here, and this might beenough to elect that man, even if therest of the ticket did not pull through.The leaders on both sides are carefullylooking over the .ground, and thestrength of every, available man in thetownship is being guaged. ' •. .

John S. Applegate, Jr., has been theohoice of the loaders for the Republicancandidate from Shrewsbury. He wouldhave the strength of his father's reputa-tion behind him and he is very popularon his own account.' He has been urgedvery strongly to be a candidate. Afterthinking the matter over for a time heboncluded last week that it would be bet-ter for him to give hi3 whole attentionkp his law business for the present, andh]e has announced that he will not be acandidate for the nomination.

William H. Houston has been a candi-date for the aS8embly_nomination, andhe was very anxious to be a~ca83idate",but his crushing defeat when he ran forcommissioner a couple of weeks ago,puts him out of the race. Had he beendefeated, even as badly as he was, in anelection where the two contestants stoedon even terms, he might possibly havesurvived. But General John Sheehan,his opponent, -was running on a pasterballot, and none of Mr. Sheehan's ticketscould be placed in the election booths orgiven out by the election officers. Mr.Houston's defeat by a vote of nearly 2 to1 under these conditions would malse therest of the county hesitate to nominatehim, even if he should have the dele-gates from Shrewsbury township withhim at the countyxonvention.

Mortimer V. Pach, son of Morris Pach,ias announced himself as a candidatefor. the nomination, and since Mr. Apple-gate has declined to lie a candidate heias' received many offers of support.But it-is along time before the countyconventionsrare held, and there may bechanges in the condition of things beforeOctober. At present', however, it looksas though Mr. Pach would have, prncti?cally a solid delegation for him fromShrewsbury in the •onvention.

On the Democratic side there is ananxious hunt for available candidates,The democrats who are interested in there-organization of the party believe thatwith the work that will be done thissummer and fall they will have an ex-cellent chance to airry the county.They are very desirous of doing so inorder to have the party ingoodconditionfor its big fight next year, when most ofthe county offices will become vacant. (Juuiea E. Degnan would be their firstchoice for assembly from Shrewsbury ifhe would take it, but he has not shownthe slightest inclination to do so. Mr.Dogniin is a great organizer and theDeinoorals believe that if lie were acandidate for any office he would Reethat the county was organized on a scalenever before attempted. Ho ie practi-cally out of the question and so is AlbertL. Ivins. Mr. Ivins is the assessor and ainan in that position is naturally verystrpng before tho people. But Mr. Ivins,like Mr. Degnan, will not think of beinga candidate. ' . ' ' • • ' . '

tho. only other Shrewsbury man ontho Democratic Bide, who has beenspoken of as a candidate is WilliamHenry Hendrickson; Tho political virusin tho Hendrlokson blood and membersof that family could no more keep fromtaking active interest in politics than a

duck could. keep from swimming if itwere put in water. Mr. Hendricksonhas not yet announced his candidacyHe has a pretty big barrel and barrelBare very handy, things to.have on. thepremises in political fights. Like JohnS. Applegate, Jr., Mr. Hendricksonwould have his father's reputation tohelp him and he is himself well kn&wnthroughout the eastern part of thecounty. If he should take the'nomina-tion hewenld put up a big' figt)t, Imthe says he is not looking for the nomina-tion this year. • •

In the rest.of the county not s« muchinterest has been taken in the assemblynominations as in Shrewsbury. Shrews-bury is more of a.political nest than anyother township in the county, not evenexcepting Freehold,.and the political pot'is boiling in Shrewsbury all the time.It is generally understood that none of thecandidates for county offices next yearwill come from Shrewsbury, and thisleavesthe statesmen.of the rest of thecounty free to calculate on their chancesof getting the prizes. -,

The Democratic slate for county officesnext year compriaes. David S. Crater forsurrogate, of course. Henry S. Terhune,is the man the" Democrats want to runfor senator if he will take the nomina-tion ; and for sheriff the choice seems tobe between John Guire and William R,Joline, both of whom live at LongBranch. The Republican slate has thename of Oliver H. Brown for senator,Charles Asa Francis for sheriff, and any-body who will take it for surrogate.John W. Herbert will be the^Republicancandidate for congress in case Mr. Howelldoes not want it again, and as Mr. Her-bert" is practically a Monmoutb countyman this Would add to the interest in thefight.

The Democrats are proceeding withtheir work of organizing the county andhave called primaries for the election ofthe township executive committees.TheBe primaries will be held on Tuesday,June 4th, afifour o'clock. The places ofholding the primaries and the number6t delegates to which each township isentitled are as follows : ,Atlantic-Hotel, Colt's Neck ,...10Eatontown-Garrlsan's, Oceanport 10Freehold - Richardson's, Freehold 19Uolradel—Hotel, Holmdel 10Howell—Strough's Hotel, Panntaiftlalo . . 1 "ManSlapan-Flemlng's, Engllshtown 10Marlboro—Hotel.

Within awe'ek^or so after the town-ship pommittees are elected the .countycoinmitteemen will be elected, and thevarious election district leaders np-pointed. Then will begin the work oflaying out each election district in pre-cincts and the appointment of pre-cinct captains. Township meetings ofthe captains and leaders are to be heldevery two weeits and the Democratic:ounty leaders believe that by the time

the oampMgn opens the party will be inthe finest condition possible and will be,prepared to put up an amazingly strongright. .

At half-past five o'clock on Saturdayafternoon the gates of the new bridgewere thrown open. Four carriages andan automobile were lined up ready tocross the bridge. The automobile andtwo carriages were side by side and theother two carriages followed in the same .manner. In the automobile were Ex-Mayor P. Hall Packer and Henry Zobel,the owner of the automobile. Therewas a great cheer from the spectators asMr. Packer and Mr. Zobel started acrosswhat waa termed " the twentieth cen-tury_ bridge in a twentieth centuryvehicle." John Guire, director of theboard of freeholders, and William H.Elliott, mayor of Seabright, rode to-gether in one of the carriages of the-front row. In tbe other carriage wereW. H. Denise, the engineer of the bridge i_and Freeholder George B. ' Snyder. Iiione of the carriages following was John ,Burke, the foreman of the bridge work-ers, and his family.- Mrs. Charlotte'Cruser, a sister of Mr. Packer, was also inthis carriage. In the other carriage wereMrs. Benjamin VanBrunt, Mrs. PercysSherman and Mm, W. H. Sherman.There was considerable travel over tbe .bridge from the minute that it wasopened.1 After the bridge had been formallyopened to travel a little " blow out" tocelebrate the event was held at Pannaci'shotel. A light lunch and liquid refresh-ments were served. Speeches were madeby John Guire. Mayor Elliott, P. HallPacker, George B. Snyder, Dr. H. C.Cattenach of Long Branch, and W.

Sweeney and John Pol-'lard. . . .

The new bridge is an impbsing struc-ture. Its most noteworthy feature isthe. width of the roadway. .This isthirty feet in the clear and three wagonscan pass each other side by side insafety. The planking of" tlie roadwayruns lengthwise of the bridge and thisjives an^even surface to the floer. A'"'ootpath eight feet wide is on each side

of the bridge. The bridge is 581 feetlong and the draw is 220 feet. Whenthe/draw is open it gives a clear water-way of eighty feet on each side of thecenter pier.

The draw is to be operated by steam.The engine will be on an elevated plat-form in the middle of the draw. Theengine house is not yet completed andin the meantime the bridge is beingoperated by an engine on a scow Ip-.catedin the(river. There isi no warning:~"on the bridge'againstdriving over the'draw faster than a walk and it is under-stood that there will be no restrictions inthis matter. The bridge will be lightedby electricity.

ThisBum includes the salariesof draw tendersas well aa the rebuilding of some smallbridges and culverts. In addition to thismoney, the county will raise $10,000 topay Seabrlght bridge bonds coming duenext year; and will raise $2,000 to pay'interest oh Seabright bridge bonds.

item is for maintaining the countycourts. The annual appropriation, forthe.courts for several years past hasbeen $65,000, and the court expensesusually run a little above this figure;Another large item'is the support oflunatics who have no property.

About $85,000 will be spent by thefreeholders in buying the turnpikes ofthe county and making free roads, ofthem.

- for the turnpikes the coming year.The only county road being built this

year is the Lakewood and Lower Squan-kum road, for which the freeholdershave appropriated $10,000 to pay thecounty's share- of the expense. About$15,000 was appropriated to pay balancesdue contractors for building county roadslast year. The county witholds a partof th*e contract price of a road for atime after the road is completed andthis $15,000 is to pay balances due.About $15,000 more was appropriated totake care of the county roads alreadybuilt.

TWO NEW TEACHERS.. .

Eatontown Township's School BoardFills Its Teachers' Corps.

The Eatontown township school boardmet ou, Monday night and elected ateacher for the grammar department atOc'eanport and one for the primary de-.partruent at West Long Branch for nextyear. There were a large number of ap-plications for both positions., Quite aninterest was taken in the election of tboteachers and a large number of residentsof the township attended the meeting.The board selected Charles Strahan ofMillstone for the teacher at Oceanport.Mr. Strahan is the son of former assem-blyman Reuben G. Strahan. He is quiteactive in church work and is,a localpreacher in the Methodist church.' Heis a married man and will live at Ocean-port. MisB Grace Holmes, daughter ofJoseph V.- Holmes of Shrewsbury, wasselected to fill the position at West LongBranch. Miss Holmes I'B a graduate ofthe Red Bant public school of the cladsof '97. She iB also a graduate of thestate normal school at Trenton-and isnow teaching at Woqdrjdge.

Milo Crego, the present principal ofthe Oceanport school, has been in theschool for a number of years.. He is aresident of Belmar and goes back andforth every day. At Belmar he holdsthe office of justice of the peace. MissIda Leach is the present primary teacherat West Long Branch. She did not putin an applicatioa for the situation foranother year and some people eay shedid not do this because she is going toget married. She has bad the positionfor six years and has been a very satis-factory teacher. All the other teachersof the township schools -were re-ap-pointed some time ago.

New Jersey Oyster Culture.(FVoro the Newark News.)

Although $2,260,000 worth of oysterswere shipped last year from the threeprincipal shipping points on., the NewJersey shore of Deleware bay1, it is evi-dent from the recent report prepared bySuperintendent Austin of the New Jer-sey state oyster commission that Jihebusiness is qapable of almost indefiniteexpansion. Only a tenth of the groundsadapted to the progagation of oysters isnow used for that purpose, and when itis learned that to work the beds alreadyplanted requires 520 boats and 8,000meD,producing an output of the value notedaboTe, some estimate may be formed asto the proportions which the industrywill assume in the future. That it willcontinue to grow and grow rapidly iscertain. There is no danger of over-pro-duction. The demand for oysters morethan exceeds the increase in output.

Improved methods of transportationhave made it possible to ship oysters inthe shell thousands of miles, so that nowthere is practically no limit to the homemarket. At the same time the exporttrade is constantly increasing as Europebegins to appreciate the superiority ofAmerican oyBters.

There seems to be no doubt that therecent legislation providing for state su-pervision of the oyster business in theDelaware bay has proved most beneficent.It has placed the industry upon a fixedand substantial basis, and provided lorits enlargement upon terms equitable tothe planters and to the state. Eventhose who at first most bitterly opposedthe law now admit its superiority to thehaphazard and confusing regulationswhich, in former years, were alteredwith every recurring session of the legis-lature.

The success of the system in Delawarebay suggests the wisdom of extending itto all the state's oyster beds. FromNewark bay to Cape May there are thous-ands of acres devoted to raising oysters,and thousands more that are capable ofbeing utilized for that purpose. An in-dustry that already contributes so largelyto the state's wealth, and that is so capa-ble of expansion, certainly deserves allthe protection and encouragement thatthe legislature can give it.

WEDNESDAY. 'MAY 32, 1901'.'"T

GivftgAway Franchises.The announcement is made that the

Tinterir water compiiny-lias organized abranch Lo be known us the Middletownwater company, and Iliat this companyhas secured ii franchise to use all o. thestreets, roads and highway* in Middle-tovifc township. Tli? value of the fran-chise which ihe ofiiciuls ot Middletowntownship have givena way may oe -esti-mated from the f.uct that the Middle-town water company has a capital of twomillion dollars.

•The-auction, of officials in giving awayfranchises knot confined'to Middletowntownship. It would seetn incredible,were it! not so frequently.proved other-wise, that? public officials would so

• lightly part with public property. A setof public officials, elected at most for afew brief years, transfer from the pub-lic all kinds of public rights, in or-

*der that corporations tbay be benefited,and by this action this property is alien-ated from the public forever.

That' a set of officials, elected for abrief term of office, could give awaypublic property to corporations, and thatthe public could never get this propertyback, would be astounding were it notof such common,occurrence. Even ifthe people themselves were willing tohave public property'given away, thelaw should not permit it to be done.Public property belongs not to any onegeneration, but also to the people of allgenerations to come. .."No generation ofpeople should be allowed to strip futuregenerations of their rights to publicproperty, and no set of officials shouldbe permitted to dp so.

Fortunately the public mind and thepublic conscience are being awakened tothe wrongfulncsa of such action. Prop-ositions to give away valuable fran-chises are no longer looked upon withacquiescence bv the public. The time

. is at hand when laws should be passedprohibiting the alienation of public prop-erty under any circumstances. If pub-lic property is necessary for.a priyate

' corporation's use,- either the publicshould take upon itself the work whichthe priyate corporation proposes to do,or it should be taken by the corporationwith the proviso that after a certain

• time the properly shall revert to thepublic, together with all improvements•which the corporation has made to theproperty, This latter plan was recently

• adopted by tbe city of New Yor&jn thematter of the rapid transit tunnel^ andthat vast" work, with all the improvernent8 which the rapid transit companymay make while it is under their charge,will revert to the city of New York, ab-solutely free from debt, at the end offifty years.

THE RKGHSTER believes that it is an un-wise policy for any community to partwith auy of its public property, or togive franchises for the use of publipproperty to private corporations. It be-"lieves that public rights of every kindshould be treasured as the groatest bless-ing which one generation can handdown to another. Whether,public prop-erty is given away by officials throughcorrupt motives, or through favoritism,or through failure to realize the ufaimalfeeffects on the public, is of no consequenceso far as tbe public is concerned. Pub-lic property once given away by officialsis gone from the public for all time, nomatter what the reason may have beenfor giving it away. y

Until IUWB are passed that will preventthe giving away of franchises and of

' other forms of public property, thepeople should oppose, by every means intheir power^ all propositions which looktoward depriving the public of any oftheir rights. Only by vigorous resist-ance to corporation aggressions will therights of the people be mantained, andthe rights of future generation securedto them.

•;.--,, TOWN TiLK.

Much indignation has been expressedWer the'arresta";of-i bicyclers, in BedBank last Thursday night by Marsbar J.B. Rue, for riding without a light.There is an ordinance which requires

icyclers to carry a light at night, out itas been a dead letter fora long time.'

•t had not been enforced this season tin-:il J. B. Rue began making arrests lastThursday, uight. Persons who had been•iding to Red Bank continuously •with->ut a light were summarily nabbed thatlight by Marshal Rue, and were marchediefore Justice Child and forced to payil.50. - ' !

• * * ,

The indignation which is felt is notconfined to the bicyclers who were ar-rested, but it is felt by the townspeoplegenerally. The business men and resi-ents of Red Bank feel that that sort ofiroceedings will give Red Bank theimputation of being a mighty,good towno Btay away from. Jacob B. Rue got alollar out of- each person he arrested,ut the town was injured hundreds ofollars by his work.

• * *The ordinance was passed years ago,

rhen it was thought necessary to have aght at night to prevent collisions.

Whether this precaution is necessary athe present time may be an open ques-ion, many people holding that under)resent conditions of well-lighted streets,)icycle lamps lire not needed. Butwhether they are needed or not it wasone the leas an upwfae proceeding to

)ermit riding .at night without lamps'or months and months, and then to sud-lenly begin making arrests.

# » *Ordinances are not enacted for the

lurpose.of giving marshals a chance tonake money out of violations of the law,is Marshal Rue evidently thinks; butfor the purpose of securing good govern-ment for the town. 8o far as the endsof good government are concerned, the:own would have been as well servediad Marshal Rue notified the persons herrested that the ordinance concerning

jicycle lamps was to be' enforced ; but:here would have b^en no money in this:ourse for Marshal Rue.

* * * • ,

Many of the people of Red Bank con-sider J; B, Rue as thoroughly unfit tolold any official position in the town;,nd his performance on Thursday nightlas strengthened that opinion. Innarked contrast with his work, was that)f Marshal J. Frank Patterson. Mr.'atters.on was stationed up-town, and

when he learned that arrests were beingmade for riding bicycles with unlightedlamps, he notified wheelmen whom hesaw- that the ordinance was being en-forced, and that they must get lamps'or their wheels. He made no moneyut of the unfortunates whom he mightiave arrested, but the town was berie-ited by his course.

GRADUATING EXERCISES.

They Will Be Held on WednesdayMi/lit, June tilth.

The graduatiug exercises of the RedBank public schools will take place onWednesday night, June 12th. For along time past there has been. a dis-position among advanced school peopleto get away from the school exhibitiondea in commencement exercises, and

the new plan will be adopted in RedBank this year. The graduating exer-cises will be simple and will consist oftile salutatory and valedictory addressesand an address by some noted education-al man. There will be instrumentalmusic and choruses, and these will cotn-piise practically all of the exercises.

The usual class day exercises will beven the night following the gradua-

;ion. No entertainments will hereafter>e given by the class previous to gradua-tion, it having been found that {heBe'ntertainmeals interfere cpnsiderablywith school work.

The present graduating class beganwith thirty members last year. Two ofhese dropped fttit some time ago and ofhe others 25 wiy graduate. The state

board of education requires those whoreceive diplomas to pass certain require-'ments, in order that pupils may be? ad-mitted to'the state normal school with-out examination. 'To give diplomaswithout these requirements being ful-filled vitiates all other diplomas giv.enby the sohool. Three of the members ofhe graduating class, while in the tenthjrade, on account of sickness or1 fromother unavoidable causes, bad to dropone of the regular topics, and under theregulations of the state board of educa-tion they can not receive a diploma untilthe course has been completed, Theeethree pupils will probably complete thecourse next year. •

The graduatas are Anne S. Tallrnan,Grace Riddle, Nellie Ade^ide Wilson,Anna A. Atkinson, Margaret A. Smock,Anna E. Morris, Anna S. Conover, EholaR. Curtis, jM.

' TWO LIGHTING CONTRACTS.

' The Bumson Road to be Liahtea. • With 'Electricity This Year.

Several years ago, when the Consoli-dated gas company was organized, thecompany got a franchise from the town-

sh ip of, Shrewsbury permitting it to lay' gas pipes and electric light cables

through any of the streets and highwaysof the township. The Whore electriccompany for several years had hadfraiichise bestowing the same privileges

> on their company. When these fran-chises were given the two companies ex-pected to confine their operations to pri-vate lighting, as the laws at that timedid not permit township committees tolight country streets.

Two or three years ago laws werepassed enabling township committees tolight township roads and at once therewas n demand en the part of the(pub|icfor street' lights. Contracts were madewith both the gas company and theelectric light company to light some ofthe streets in the township. As both ofthe companies already had franchises todo business anywhere in the townshipthese contracts did not give them anyadditional privileges, but it did givethem more business.

Last fall the township decided to lightthe Rumson road this summer, and bothcompanies were asked to put in bids.The gaa company, which runs its elec-tric wires from its plant at Long Branch,offered to furnish electric lights at $30per year. The Red Bank electric, lightcompany offered to furnish them at $20per year, the same price it charges in therest of the township ; but as an expen-

• sive cable had to be laid it asked thetownship to pay $1,000 toward the costof the cable. The town committee didnot consider either of these propositions•with favor.

Matters remained in this conditionuntil three weeks ago. The townshipcommittee, at their meeting at that time,called up the Consolidated gas companyon the telephone and said that $80 per,light was more than the township wouldpay; and $25 per light was finally agreedon. When this agreement was madepublic Mr. Hall, the representative ofthe Shore electric company, claimedthat the gas company had had an op-portunity to change its bid, but that hehad not. He said if the gas companycould change its bid he ought to have achance to do likewise, and he offered toput in the lights at $20 per year, theprice which the committe'fe-was paying inall the rest of the township, without thetownship paying any part of the cost ofthe cable. . .

The matter came up again at the meet-ing of the township com mittee last Thurs-day, BordenHancewasnotpresentatthemeeting, and aftpr consulting with himthe" committee decided to let the con-tract with the gas company stand, butthey awarded a contract for a few addi-tional lights ia the eastern part of thetownship to the Shore electric company.As both companies already have fran-chises for running wires in all parts ofthe township there will be no delay overadvertising franchise /Ordinances, andboth •companies say they will have theirlights burning early in June. No over-head wires will be used, but the currentwill be furnished from undergroundcables, ' .

They Taste GoodBecause they are good, This is what a housekeeper said

of Bucklin's Baked Beans. She had seen uscanning them and had tried the finished article, so she knew

whereof she spoke; and really that is the principal .''reason ,

why they taste so good. AH the ingredients are the best

that money can buy, and they are combined and prepared -.

with all the skill known to modern canning.

We are proud of the dressing used with our beans be- ,

cause it is really a Tomato Sauce (and delicious, too), while

that used in many brands is Tomato Sauce in name only. '•';

Your grocer will supply^ you with B l lCk l in 'S ',

THE SEWER ASSESSMENT,SEWER COMMISSIONERS COM-

PLETE THEIR WORK.

A Rearina to be Held at FreeholdNext Tueaaay-The Method ofCom-puting Benefits, and the Aaaeaa-riient'oti Each Piece of Property,

$Franois White, W. B. Lawrence andPeter 1, Brady, the three persons ap-pointed to assess oh property owners theBenefits of the sewers of Red Bank,

• completed their work last week. Theirduty was to ascertain the entire cost ofthe sewers, apportion part of the coat onthe property owners who were benefited

. by the work, and assess the balance onthe town at large. .

The report of the assessment commissioners states that they were occupied167 days on the work and that the fiecre-tary was employed 100 days in makingup his report, The total length of thee.ewer mains in the town is 28,971..feet,and there are 20,224 feet of house con-nections. The cost of putting downthe mains and house connections WBB$87,080.45. Nearly $3,000 has been paidin interest on the sewer certificateswhich have been issued, and $8,700 waspaid for the gas house property.'.wherethe sewage beds are to be located. Coun-sel fees and legal expenses amounted to$884.88 and sewer maps cost $575. Theassessment commissioners' will receive$1,782 for their'work and their expensesThere were some other minor expensesconnected with the building of tile sewersystem, and the total cost of the work isset down at $48,719.44.

The commissioners held two publicmeetings to discuss the proper methodsof assessing sewer benefits. They finajlydecided that the oply equitable methodwas to assess benefits according to streetfrontage. Owners of corner lots werenot assessed for the full frontage oneach street, but only on the main front-age, and on. any excess over a reasonabledepth of the lot on the side street.Nearly one-half of the number of feet ofpipe laid was for house connections andthe cost of these was directly chargeableas benefits to the property. When thecost of the house connections was con-sidered, the commissioners .concludedthat seventy cents per foot would be aproper basis of assessment and the bene-fits were accordingly figured in that way.

This method of assessment put a littleover two-thirds of the cost of the sewerson the property directly bonefited. Thetotal assessment on property was$35,1)94.80. and $18,125.14 was assessedon the town at large. In making theassessment on the running foot plan thecommissioners kept in mind the fact thatthe more valuable properties in the town,

• whiclr might be'considered as being bene-fited more tbanoutlyingproperty, wouldhave to bear a large per centage of thegeneral assessment, and that this wouldequalize any special benefits.

After arriving at this conclusion thecommissioners obtained the frontage ofevery property on the lines of .the sewersand "fixed the cost accordingly. Belowis given the name of each propertyowner on the line of the sewers, thenumber of feet of frontage on each streeton which the assessment is made, andt)m_ total jaesejsament on jeach piece ofproperty7 In theTease 6r. corner lots,, theassessment on lfhe excess depth of thelots on the side streets is marked (Ex).Anplesate, Mrs. Laura, Maple, 50 $35 01

A DOLLAR SOCIABLE.

Forty Dollars Hade Jpor the XetcPresbyterian etiuvcH.

The Christian Endeavor society of thePresbyterian church held, a dollar soc-iable in the lecture room of the churclron Thursday night. Some time ago thememhers of the society each agreed' toearn a dollar to start a fund for a newPresbyteruin church and.on Thursday

, night this money waa turned in. Themembers were supposed to tell how theyearned their money, but the only twowho did so wore Mrs. H. L. Brower andHoward-Watts. They each told in versehow they made their dollars. A generaladmission fee of. twenty cents wascharged to the sociable, and ice creamand cake were served free. The^ollaraturned in and the proceeds from thegeneral admission together netted $40.: Miss Mamie Edgar is chairman of thesocial committee of'the Christian En-deaTor society and she and Mrs. H. L.

' Brower arranged a fine programme for' the sociable. A feature of the pro-

gramme that created a lot of laughterwas a musical selection on combs riyVan Smucb. Joseph and George EdgarWilliam Smock, William. Letson andJoseph Zarmon. They played " The Blueand the Gray" and in response to anencore they played "Home, SweetHome." Some who heard the combband play declare that if homes were asdiscordant? as the music from tb$ combs,

—thetiohg of "Home, Sweet Home" wouldnever have been written.

Another amusing number on the pro-gramme was a drill, entitled "Lookingbackward," by sixteen girls. The drillgot its name from the fact that, thosetaking part in- it had their dresses on" wrong side before." The girls in thedrill were Mary Holmes, Helen Culling-ton, Maggie Smoclt, Adaand NellieOtter-son, Gertie Fredrieks, Laura' ilaney,Edna Marshall, Bessie Matthews, MamieCarson, Jean Pope, Carrie White, AddieReid, Annie Edgar, Ella Thompson aridMabel Wikoff. ;__. A series of tableaux representing the

names of books was given by nine boys• and girls. When a tableau was given"representing the title of n book the au-thor of the boot, was announced and theaudience was asked to guess the title.The representation^ were cleanly exe-cuted and very few of the titles wereguessed. Those in the .tableaux wereMeta, Elsie and.Ethel White, NewtonDoremus, George Hance, Millie Corn-well, Harry Longstreet, Frank Parkerand Ensley Smock.

Other numbers on the programmewere piano solos by Miss Bertie Krideland Miss Mamie VanDorn, a piano duetby Miss Kridel"and Miss Lulu Hesse,vocal solos by Miss Emma Otterson,Miss Carrie Mount and Miss Mamie Ed-gar, and readings by Mrs, H. L. Browerand Howard'Watt8.

Joseph H. Stout a Bankrupt.Joseph H. Stout of Middletown town-

ship was last week ad judged a bankrupt.The schedules Mr. Stout has filed withthe bankruptcy court show assets of $238and liabilities of $5,220.86. Of the as-sets Mr. Stout has an exemption of $200,and this leaves only $88 to be apportionedamong the creditors. The court chargeswill probably more than eat this up, andthe amount to be divided among thecreditors will be so small that it will notpay_ them to* send the fee of fifty centswhich must accompany each claim. Thecreditors will have ameeting-at FrederickParker's office at Freehold on Fridaymorning, May 81st, when creditors mayprove their claims and appoint a trus-tee to take charge of the assets.

15he SALE of WHITET5he Semi'Annual Gathering of

MUSLIN UNDERWEAR' T H E distinguishing character of the garments made for the Wana-* maker Sale of White still malces them pre-eminent in' th.e favor

of discriminating women. Competition shows no inclination to followour policy of selling ' .

High-Class Refined Garments at Very Low PricesThese goods are largely made specially for us. We have given the manufacturers gar-

ments brought from Paris as models for those they were malting for this Summer Sale. Thebeauty and dainty effect have been produced at remarkably little 'cost. This is why the gar-ments shown in this sale are so attractive to tasteful women. The economy, though highlygratifying, is a secondary consideration to our public. The economy with thi refined char-acter of tin garments makes the Wanamaker Sale unapproached in its field.

• We are our own severest critics. Our buyers have standards to meet that must, passthe most crucial comparisons before we exploit the goods to you.

We find manufacturers still making the bulk of their ' garments with ' ' raw seams,'.'garments under-size, skimped, carelessly sewed, trimmed with odds and ends and bad pat-terns of lace or embroidery. You find such goods in other sales—never at Wanamaker's atany price. All of our garments are made in clean, healthfuT fiicfones^-cheap" garmentswhich usually come from quite different conditions, never get into this store. Our sale goodsare. as pure an J fresh, dainty and refined, as the best goods sold in best stores at full prices.

Yet we tell of remarkably low prices—prices so low that the buying of trash and sweat-shop goods exploited elsewhere, is an extravagance instead of a-saving.

A CONSTABLE LOSES A SUIT.

Wm. Simmons Getna Verdictoj$ 100Against Chariot E. Strotig.

- Some time ago Constable Charles B.Strong of Colt's Neck had a warrantagainst Edward Lewis, a colored man ofFreehold. By mistake he arrested Wil-liam Simmons of Freehold instead ofLewia. • The handcuffs were put on Sim-mons and bis'wrist was cut thereby. Hewas also taken along the street of Free-hold for some distance before the mistakewas discovered.

— Simmons is. janitor, of...the.. .FreeholdEpiscopal church and is a very respect-able man. He claimed that Strong didnot read the warrant to him and that hewas unnecessarily reckless and brutal inranking tbe arrest. The law is thatwhen a man is arrested for a misde-meanor the officer must show the war-rant and tell the man what be ia arrestedfor. If he docs not do this the man canlegally resist tho officer in order to main-tain liiB freedom. Three witnesses to thoarrest testified that Strong did not readtho warrant. Simmons testified thatStrong did not even tell him what hewas wanted for, but simply arrested him,clapped the handcuffs on him and startedwith him for the jail.

The jury gave Simmons a verdict oi.$100. Strong's lawyers were John &Foster and William T. Hoffman. ^Sim-nionB's lawyers were Edmund Wilson andEnsebius W. ArrowamibJi.

We have just received the largest and finest shipment of Chinese and Japanese Mattings everbrought to Red Bank. The order for the goods was £iven last summer, from the new designs whichwere then being made for the coming season's goods. Each roll contains forty yards, and the pricesrange from $4.40 to $20 per roll. x ..

The higher-priced goods in this shipment of mattings will be found very desirable. They havestrong cotton warp, they are closely woven, and in addition to being; in the, latest colors and prettiestdesigns, they will wear like iron. Ordinarily mattings are used for out-of-the-way places, like attic bed-rooms and such; but these mattings are handsome-~^no]3gH"'fef any room in the house, and for summerfloor coverings they cannot be excelled.

Carpets, Rugs and Art Squares.No matter how muchimatting is used, there are always some rooms which fashion decrees should

be carpeted. Along with our mattings we got in a big stock of Carpets, Rugs and Art Squares. Wehave •all-wool" ingrain carpets, in the new patterns, at 50 cents per yard up. These all-wool ingrainswear well and will not fade.

We have Tapestry Brussels Carpets at 55 cents per yard up. These carpets, like the ingrains,are of the new patterns and colors, and they give a.stylish and handsome appearance to any room.

Art Squares and Rugs can be used anywhere in a house with good results. A big art square willsave its cost.over and over in preserving a carpet; while rugs, scattered aibout a room in places subjectedto the most wear on a carpet, also save their cost over and over, while ac the same time they help to fur-nish the room. • '

Morris Chairs.We have just received an exceptionally fine lot of, Morris Chairs. They are beautifully and

durably: upholstered, fire of fine finish, highly-polished frames, and are as comfortable as they are hand-They cost fro)m $9.00 up. " ^

I have in tlie narration of the follow-ing experience adhered strictly to facts

'and may add that I am not, or 'vvas not,7

' Btiperstitlously Inclined. I was, more-over, at the time of the occurrence inperfect mental and bodily health. Itis necessary, for obvious reasons, todisclose the name of the hotel wherethe incident took place; but, as mostpeople discredit the supernatural, thepublication of this story can scarcelyinjure the establishment, justly re-nowned for its excellence and moderatecharges. I have merely altered thenumber of the apartment wherein Ibeheld for the first and, I trust, thelast time In my life a visitor from thespirit land.

Toward the end of August, 18ft—, Tarrived, after a ramble through Sw1

zerland, at Vevey and alighted at r~Hotel du Lac, a palatial bulldinBpaclous gardens, on the brink of thelake of Geneva. The comforts of afirst class hotel were, after my recentexperiences, very enjoyable, aud cleansheets and dainty fare were little shortof luxurious after the squalid mountainInns where exorbitant prices are onlyexcelled by the bad food and worseaccommodation. In a word, the Hoteldu Lac was so perfect In every waythat I resolved to prolong my staythere at least for a week before return-ing to PnrlR.

The house was crowded with tour-ists, mostly English. Every room,from garret to basement, was, the man-ager assured me, occupied—every roombut one. The latter, as good luckwould have It, had been vacated justbefore my arrival by a guest who hadbeen suddenly recalled to Russia. Theapartment, a large one, was on the firstfloor and looked on to the lake. It wasexpensive (this with a glance at my tat-tered weeds), but dubiously, "Perhapsmonsieur will not object to that.""Monsieur," far from rejecting, jumpsat the offer and is presently Installedin a light, airy chamber, with electriclight, chintz curtains and cheerfulwall paper, luxuriously furnished "a laMaple" and about as unlike the tradi-tional "haunted room" as it is possibleto conceive.

I will describe the room minutely. Inshapo it was oblong, with at one end alarge window looking on to the hotelgarden and beyond it, over the bluewaters of the lake, to a panorama of

_ : fir clod hills -topped by the snowy peakof the "Dent du Midi." Immediatelyfacing the \vindowt its head to the wall,wn.s • a, curtnlnless brass bedstead,whence I could survey tlieentlre apart-ment, ami next to it a chintz coveredeasy chair. A wardrobe faced the onlydoorway loading on to the principallanding, anil a marble washstand stood

. next It. The furniture was completedby a couple of cane clinirs and a large

• round table placed in the center of theroom. The la tier I moved'close to thewindow and set out my papers andwriting materials with a view to work.But tropical heat and a cloudless skylire not conducive to literary efforts,and a fragrant breeze stealing In at the

• window aud the sight of Lake Lemansparkling in t>.is sunshine soon dispel-led good resolutions.' Tims the morn-ings wove generally dawdled awaywith a pipe mid a novel In tlie shadygarden. Dejeuner was followed'by asiesta that menially demoralized mefor the rest of the afternoon, and to-ward evening a drive to Montreuxnlong the loveliest bit'of road In Eu-rope, a sail on the lake or a strollthrough the quiet streets of the quaintold town whlled away the hours untildinner time. Cigars and coffee's underthe quiet stars brought the lazy, de-lightful." (lny to a close. \Yho couldthink of work in such an clyslum?

It wns only upon the third eveningthat I made a somewhat disquietingdiscovery. I had forgotten my cigarcase and returned for It after dinner tomy room. Night lind fallen, but, al-though the passage was In darkucBs, adim twilight rendered objects In theapartment faintly visible. I found whatI sought and was turning toward thedoor when the sight of a man's figurestanding by the open window arrestedmy attention. The glimpse was onlymomentary. It was like a landscaperevealed on ti summer night for thefraction of a second by a Hash of lightnlng to vanish again Into darkness withone wink of thu eyelids. I cannot any

- that It caused me alarm, for I was' then n disbeliever in tlie supernatural,

and a man's fancy at dusk.will playGrange tricks. I remember ascribingthe fleetlnc vision to a disordered liver

and mentally resolving in future to ab-stain -from madti dishes and Pilsenerbeer. !3o little Importance Indeed did Iattach to it that I did not even mentionthe occurrence' to Langford, an Eng-lishman whom I had met in the hotel,when I jpined him on the terrace forcoffee and cigan1 I had planned sft» expedition with mynew acquaintance for the followingday, and as it eirfsfiled a start at dawnwo retired ear)/ But although usuallya good sleepeirI lay awake the greaterpart, of the night, occasionally fallinginto a feverlsp doze, only to awaken afew momenW after with a vague appre-hension of danger. Once I could, havesworn that some one was movingstealthily about the room. There was ashuffling sound as of slippered feetdrawn cautiously along the carpet-now at the foot of the bed, then fartheraway toward the •window. ^More thanonce I switched on the light, preparedto grapple with some midnight visitorwith an eye on toy watch, for this solutlon of the mystery would at any ratehave relieved a suspense that waagrowing intolerable. But nothing'wasvifrible, although I searched every nooliand corner of the room—even raised thevalance and peered, like a nervous oldmaid, under the bed, half afraid thatLangford had Indulged in a practicaljoke and was chuckling from some se-cret recess at my discomfiture.

Lastly, I vainly explored the dim andsilent landing and then sought myrestless couch, but the footsteps re-turned with the darkness and renderedrepose Impossible. The night was over-cast. A drizzly rain was falling, butI drew the easy chair to the window,lit a cigar and tried to reason1 myselfliif o a calmer frame of mind. The Idea

t the room was haunted never for,e Instant occurred to me. I must be

•II, I thought; sickening, perhaps, withtyphoid or some other malarial fevercontracted In one of those poisonousmountain inns. Anyhow, the day wasbreaking when I threw myself uponthe bed and fell Into a dreamless sleep,from which I was awakened by thesun streaming into my eyes and Lang-ford, dressed and ready for our jour-ney, standing by my bedside.

A mountain resort near Montreuxwas our destination. The walk was astiff one, and I felt disposed to shirkIt, for the night of unrest and anxietyhad worn me out. But bracing air andbright sunshine soon revived me suffi-ciently to entertain my companion onthe road wltb my overnight adventure.Langford, a practical Briton, ridiculedghosts and suggested that imaginationand an excellent cuisine might.be re-sponsible for the strange sounds, not-withstanding that I had eaten sparing-ly on the evening in question, while Im-agination is not one of my gifts—orfailings. Anyhow it was agreed thatshould tho noises recur that night Iwas to call my friend, who would aidme to unravel thb 'mystery.

"You ought to sleep soundly enough,"he laughingly observed as we trudgedinto Vevey that evening, pretty welldone up after a tramp of 30 miles, mostof it over steep and difficult ground.

It wflrf*have to bo a very noisyghost that keeps me awake," I repliedlightly, but wjth some misgiving, forthe restless feeljjig of the previousnight, which during the day had leftme, seemed to return as we neared thehotel. It impelled me to dress for din-ner more hurriedly"than"usual; for,"al-though it was still broad daylight andthe cheerful clatter of plates arosefrom thi' salle-a-manger, I caught my-

lf instinct ivply listening for the softfootfall of tlie midnight hours.

Langford suggested that we keep themutter dark, so that in the event ofrobbery tlie delinquent might be secur-ed ri'dhantk'd. After dinner a plan ofcampaign was formed. I was upon re-tiring to lock .my bedroom door, then toextinguish the light and keep watchfor- an hour at least, while Langford inhis apartment did likewise. At tliefirst symptom of alarm I was to rushto tlie door, lock It from the outsideanil "summon my friend's assistance.His bedroom was almost opposite tomine. .

A dance took place that evening inthe hotel, which rather upset our ar-rangements, but by 11 o'clock the mu-sicians had departed? and half an hourlater lights were extinguished and thebuilding was as silent as tho grave.Langford and I then separated, lie tosmoke a pipe iii his room and awaitevents and I to retire to my "hauntedchamber." The night was as clear asnoonday, and I threw open the windowto admit tho pure air, fragrant withdewy grass nnd flowers. Every stone,of some distant white buildings stoodout sharply in the inoonligh't, whichtrncud a path of sllverncross jrho lake,divided on the horizon by a dark bar-rier of hills from,the lighter1 heavenspowdered with stars. A solemn still-ness reigned, broken only by waveletson the beachVB^jthp plnsli of a foun-tain hard by. The scene was one fromfairyland, and I reluctantly closed thewindow upon It and, having partiallyundressed, turned, off tlie light. Theclocks of the town were striking mid-night as I did no, fully determined tosolve If possible the mystery of "No.33." ^ *•<•

I must have lain nwake for more thantwo hours. Tho chimes rang out at In-tervals, but I listened in vain for nn-other sound. Gradually tlie bolls growfainter In my cars, and, worn out withthe long, fatiguing day, I slept,' Only afew mimitcB could have elapsed'whenI awoke, for the moon wan still high in

the.heavens "and the stars were' undimmed. At first I lay blissfully uncon-scious of tlje grim presence near me,The moonbeams were streaming' intothe room, and I w.asllrowsily watchingtheir reflection on the. carpeted floor,when the rays darkened, as though ashadow had crossed them. I raised my-self in bed, glanced toward the window,and hear It, gaunt and gray, against thesquare of light was a sight which filledme with such terror that I knew Instinctlvely f was gazing upon a ghost.The man was motionless and bending,as if In deep thought, over the writingtable. Every detail of his dress isstamped upon my memory with theclearness of a camera,, but although theface was slightly turned toward me,not a feature was visible. A gray mask,with dark shadows for the mouth andeyes, more accurately describes the vis-age which, oddly enough, was not de-void of an expression that seemed to In-dicate a knowledge of my presence. Thegarments appeared to be of a drab col-or, stained and tattered and shaped Inthe fashion of many centuries ago. Thenether limbs . were Invisible, but themoon shone dully oh rusty accouter-ments and a headdress of enormousheight, which would under ordinarycircumstances have appeared grotesque.As I gazed, overwhelmed with horrorand powerless to summon assistance, Ibecame conscious of the faint, sicklyodor that pervades a death chamber.Probably a few seconds, which seemedhours, elapsed before I contrived toreach the electric button and flood theroom with light. I must then havefainted, for I remember no more. Whenconsciousness returned, the blesseddaylight had dawned and the sound ofearly tram cars and departing trainsbrought rest to my body'and comfort tomy soul.

I said nothing to Langford the nextday. My practical friend would proba-bly have tried to explain away the ap-parition, which would under the cir-cumstances have been not only annoy-ing, but useless. At any rate, I wasnow sufficiently convinced of the exist-ence of at least one ghost In the world,to dispense with further inquiries, and[ therefore left that afternoon for Par-Is, breaking the journey for a night atGeneva., It was late when I .arrived inthe city of clocks and conspirators,and, having partaken of supper at therailway hotel, I retired to the smokingroom, where I lighted a cigar and tookup a guidebook that lay on a tablenear me. It was a Bradshaw's guide(for 1805 If I remember rightly), andwhile idly turningover the leaves theword Vevey caught my eye and carriedme back in memory to the pretty lake-ide retreat where I had passed so

many nnxlous hours. The old churchn the hill overlooking the town is re-

plete with historical interest and hadbeen one of my favorite haunts, and I;urned to the page descriptive- of itaeauties, read (as I was already aware)

that ','St. Martin's church of the fif-:eenth century has the graves of Lud-ow, the regicide, and Broughton, whopassed sentence of death on Charles I,nd that both of them died in exile atfevey." But the last sentence dis-:losed a vista of possibilities thativould have staggered even the skep-ical Langford himself. "Ludlow'souse," it ran, "is part of the Hotel du

Lac." I have since learned that the walljurrouuding the gardens of the Hotellu Lac bears an inscription to the.samciffcet, which while I was at Vevey es-:aped my notice.

Was it the spirit of Edmund Ludlow:hat I saw? I have since come acrossin old portrait of the Cromwelliteeader and almost fancy that I canrace a like;iess to the ghastly maskthat surveyed me, with its dull, un-meaning, stare, on that night of terror.It may be fancy, although the costumeIs strangely similar. The.somber gar-ments and steel accouterments are thesame, while the quaint" conical head-iress is" recognizable in the portraits "the felt hat of excessive height"miversally adopted by tile followersf the lord protector. In conclusion,'. may say that the haunted room at;lie Hotel du Lac may lie seen (or eveniccupied) by those desirous of furthermravellng a.mystery which Is perhapsme not unworthy of thn attention ofMr. Myers aud the British Society ForPsychical Uesriu'ch,

;. Our Lake Life Savers.When, the United States life saving

service was' first established along the,lake's, 'the men received no salaries,but were paid $10 each whenever they,rescued any human being from awreck. For the necessary drills' andfor the work, often prolonged and In-tensely painful, a t . stranded shipswhere no lives were preserved by theirefforts they received not a 'cent Na-tional parsimony, speaking thrbugb.congress, asked the day laborers andfishermen along the lake beaches tofill up the crews on those terms. I twas an appeal from the meanest in-stincts of the race addressed to thenoblest; and it was not made in vain.Even to attend a drill cost those volun-teers a day's wages, and that veryoften meant the loss of needed cloth-Ing and even of food for themselvesand families, but they stood by thelifeboats.

"It will never be believed," as oneannual report says, "but the truth isthat these men of the lakes, out oftheir love of the life saver's work, re^mained in the service and took theirchances of, getting enough day laborto support themselves and families,
