The agent of q well-known firm of
liquor-dealers in New York went to As
bury Park Monday, and began canvass
ing for orders for his fine brands of lie
quors and wines for holiday use. He
said he intended visiting every house
in the place and soliciting trade. The
most OF the goods ordered would be de-
Iivered few days before Christmas,
bat in case any customer so desired his
order would be filed at once by express.
John D. Beegle. the President of the
Board of Commissioners, secured one OF
the circulars distributed by the agent,
and with Chief OF Police Bailey went to
the Office of John r. Hawkins, the Cor
poration Counsel. for advice. Mr..
Hawkins. thought the soliciting of or
ders for wines and liquors in the town
was violation OF the law which pro-
hibits the sale OF spirituous or malt IL
quors within mile of the town limits
Chief of Police Bailey and his officers
started out in pursuit of the agent. A
friend of the agent told him that the
officers were after him, and he left for

Crockett Street.
I by the Man About Town.

The opening of Crockett street
along the river from st. Mary's street
to Losoyo street, affords q splendid
opportunity for our city authorities to
display some judgment in the man
ner in which the street shall be cut
through. Let us see now, if we can
present one shining example in the
accomplishment OF public benefit,
where private greed and selfishness
aided by the dizziness and indiffer-
ency of public functionaries defeat
the full measure of the enterprise.
For instance the idea is to throw the
river front open to the enjoyment of
the people, but to run the street with
purpose of straightness. Some large
or considerable plots of ground may
be left in places next the river and
the owners of the lots may claim the
right to erect buildings thereon there
by shutting out the river and secur-
ing for themselves the additional
fronts. Should this occur, then we
will have ragged street touching the
river here and there, instead of ing
in all its beautiful sweep. Those plots
of ground should better be taken as
public property and turned into grass
plots, or the street made to hug tue
river with a most loving EN-
brace We can see how short
sighted property owners may imag-
inc that front with the river on
the back would be valuable but time
will prove that the front facing a
street, along the river, with improved
and Ornamented open plats, will be
twice as valuable and the whole street
will be more valuable If not sacrificed
to the cupIdity of few lot owners.

There is so much that is pretty and

Lavender" that it could not well avoid
fl nding favor OH the stage of the Ly-
ceum theatre, and in the hands OF
such admirable artists as are to be
found in Mr.. Frohman's company. 1t
is simple play, but it Is so delicious
ly written and is so tender in its
human truth that it steals over and
wins an audience almost Immediately.
1t is extremely well written and there
Is no strain for effect, the scenes, the
situations and the climaxes come nat
urally as the plot unfolds. 1t is such
play as every theatre-gOer likes to
see, for 1t takes firm hold on the heart
while it never quite gets to the risi-
bilities, so deXterOusly are comedy
and pathos interviewer. "Sweet Law
