The Hudson City Turn Verein celebrated
its annual Summer festival at Kroebel's
Hudson County Volks Garden, last Mon
day afternoon and evening under the
auspices of M<sssrs. Kalstuer, Robert
Engelbrecht and Schultz, who composed
the Committee of Arrangements. One Of
the most interesting features of the occa-
sion was the exercises by the girl pupils Of
the Verein. Here were boy and girl pupils
present to the number of about $50, but
the boys didn't get chance to give their
exhibition of skill, as darkness overlook
the pisnickers before the girls got through.
Twenty-four pretty young ones partici-
pated in double May-pole dance, the
result of which was that Lottie Locke was
crowned Queen. She was attended by
two maids of henor Annie Zoeler and
Freeda Benuken. Edwin Locke represented
May. The exercises concluded with the
awarding of prizes, each girl participating
receiving one. In the evening Professor
Eckert furnished music by the band, while
shy girls danced with handsome and gall
liant youths, the intermissions being taken
up by the boys pyramiding and grouping
and giving parallel bar exhibitions, amid
blaze of fireworks under the direction of
Instructor III. f. Winter. President John
Wittigschlager, Vice President julius Ber-
ger, Secretary John Flechser and Treasurer
F. Wachtamair deserve great credit for the
manner in which the affair was inaugurated
and carried out.

KEARNRE,S LIQUOR WAR.
Trouble in Hudson County Town over
Saloon Licenses

NEWARK, Aug THE members of the
Kearncy Township Committee are in fer
ment over the license question. All saloon
licenses expired April both, and although
there is considerable number of liquor
saloons in the township, only one dealer
so far has made application for a renewal.
The reason of this is generally believed to
be the result of the increase of the license
fee from S25 to $50, which was ordered to
takeeffect from May 1st. Since that date
all the dealers have continued selling in
defiance of the ordinance and have ignored
the notice issued by the Township Clerk.
At the last meeting of the Committee a
petition was read requesting the license
fee to be reduced to the former amount,
but the request was refused. The mem
bers of the Committee are now celebrating
Oh the advisability of employing counsel
to compel the delinsuents to take license
or close their business.
