with an average of 1854. He was closely fol-
lowed by W. @. Huson, 1893 g, and S, B. Rogers,

with $780, How is that for bowling?' say the
members of the Bowling Committee
The stag on New Years eve promises to ex-
eel everything in that line that has ever been
held at the clubhouse. The Entertainment
c Committee is hard at work arranging an attrac-
tive programme.
There is a movement on foot for the organ
iZation of a theatre party and dinner for mem
bers of the wheeling division which will probably
take definite shape in February. There is also
talk of the establishment of a fund for the pur-
pose of buying prizes for the bowling cracks Of
this division.
There is much talk of charging the library,
and it has been suggested that a subscription
list be opened for this purpose. Numerous
members say that they would like to see such a
movement started, and that, if it were, they
would contribute literally.
At the last meeting of the Board of Trustees
"Will" Starrett was appointed Chairman of the
Revenue Committee.
Much interest has been aroused by the talk in
regard to the proposed boxing" class, and the
Revenue Committee will be requested to engage
an instructor at once.
The progressive euchre party which was to
have been held on Thursday evening was post
poned indefinitely.
Charley Meyer came within three points of
the highest score in the race for the Rogers
group. Stats 246 was threatened by Meyers
243.
The Camera Division has made the announce
ment that the much talked of exhibition will be
held early next month. All photographs and
slides exhibited must be the work entirely of
the exhibitor. Members who have taken and de-
veloped negatives themselves, may have the same
finished by other parties, but this must be de-
clared to the committee at the time the entry is
made, 1t being understood that they cannot
compete with exhibitors who have done all
their own work. Two awards of first and sec
ond will be made for the best TWO exhibits of
this class,

tain the people have much to gain,
too. This is a struggle, in effect, be-
tween the better and the worse ele-
ments of the party. The sordid ele-
ment, throwing off all restraints, APP
pears determined to place itself in
control-if it can. II it fails in this
effort, it will be the knell of it's power
for many years. If it should by any
mischance succeed, it will have ito go

FIGHTING FOR THE OPERA HOUSE.

Judge Werts Will Decide Next satur-
day if MIR. Mullone Shall be Put Out.
The case of Klein against Mullone &C.
cupied considerable of Judge Werts's
time today in the Chancery Chambers.
Yesterday Judge Daily, in the
District Court CAV judgment in favor of
the Klein estate in the dispossess
proceedings. As soon as this
was lone ex-Judge Voorhis.
for Mr.. Mullone, served on Judge
Puster notice of an application to Judge
Werts. at Chambers today, for a writ of
certiorari so that the case might be re-
viewed by the Supreme Court.
Judge PusUer, for the Kleins, argued
that the writ should not be granted.
He said Mr.. Mullone owed the
estate about $500 for rent now
and Judge Daily had decided
that he should be dispossessed. If he
gave security for the accumulated rent
and the amount TO fall due. the lessons
would not insist on putting Mr.. MulIone
out.
Ex-Judge Voorhis said that the Dis
tr1c5 Court had no jurisdiction in the
case because the statutory notice
mad not been given defendant
when the. dispossess proceedings
began. He denounced the plaintiffs for
~endeavoring to take from Mr., Mullone
Sl2,O0O by these methods. Judge Werts
said he would render a decision next Sat-
ur0aY.

Palma Club,

The Library Committee of the Palma Club is
about to make extensive improvements in that
most important department. The number of
volumes has increased SO of late that there is
not enough shelf room for them. and the com
mittee propose to devote the present library
room exclusively to books. The small card
room adjoining the present library will be taken
for a reading room and all periodicals and news
papers will be placed therein.
The mmit has also made arrangements
with the Free Library authorities by which
members of the club can leave their cards and
books at the clubhouse one night, have them ex-
changed and returned to them the next. The
privileges Of this arrangement will be extended
TO the friends and families of members.
The Friday Night Bowling Club, met as usual,
last night and did some good bowling. General
Heppenheimer's playing has improved wonder
fully and he bowled three times without getting
his ball into the gutter. Dir. Edge was tardy
and did not arrive until after ten O'Clock, when
the bowling was almost over and it was too late
for him 10 take a hand IN the sport. He was
promptly disciplined and fined q fine, which he
paid later in the evening.
The committee in charge of the ladies recep-
tion, which will take place next Friday evening
are hard at work completing their arrangements
for the event. Whatever may be thought OF the
elaborate promises of its being the best ever
held. it is certain that all who go there will
enjoy themselves thoroughly.
The Riding Club went forth to ride last Mou-
day and rode as usual. The meetings will be
suspended on the next and the following Mon
days on account of the Christmas aad New
Years celebrations. On the second Monday in
January, however, the CLUB VIII meet and
formally organize by electing officers.
Sam hathaway is finally out of his dilemma
and his mind is once more at place. His old
cheerful smile again shines forth from his
countenance in kindly refulgence, and he no
longer looks like a man who is Juggling around a
cankering, gnawing sorrow. Sam used to be an
enthusiastic bowler, aud la7ely he has become
an equally enthusiastic cyclist. Both loves
cluna to him like the ivy clings to the oak. and
he was growing thin over trying to
decide which one to give up. He
has finally hit upon q plan by which,
Mormon-Ike. he can embrace Them both. He
has devised a scheme of bowling on a bicycle.
It's a great idea, and when the alleys are ex-
tended around the block, sam will give an ex-
hibition of his new bowlo-cycling.
Eddie Vultee will have to continue looking
fondiy at that nice new dress suit case which
is the prize in the poo tournament. Eddie has
long had his eye on that case. but the team he
is playing with is as near the top OF the score
sheet as they are the top Of Mont Blanc.

Connors Missing Two Months.

William Smith, twenty-five years old, a
surveyors assistant in the office of the
Hudson County Public Road Engineers.
and Mrs. Kate Connors, the young wife
OF John Connors, a railroad man, have
been missing for two months and it Is
believed they have eloped.
over Two months ago Smith was sent
from theo office Of the Public Road En-
gineers in the Fuller Building to make an
acknowledgements of some papers to
be used by his condemnation proceedings
Tor the new boulevard. An hour after
ward Chief Engineer e. w. Harrison
received a note from Smith, saying:-
Il am going away to be gone two
months" All trace of Smith has been
lost sipct hat day, and that night John
Connors could not lind his wife, and has
not found her since.
Smith was appointed to assist the en-
gineer by the Freeholders a year ago.
His pay was So a day. He gave good
steady service. He is single
and lived with his grandmother at
No. Is Golden street until a short time
before he left, when he moved to the
apartments of his aunt, Mrs.
Burns. on Woodward street. The
Mrs. Smith of No. IS Golden street. the
vile OF Smiths brother, say they nave no
Information whatever as to where he is.
He might have gone TO see his friends in
the South. They had heard the story of
his elopement with Mrs. Connors, and
seem to believe It.
Mrs. Connors was Miss Kate Feeney.
Her parents died in Railroad venu
Her sister. Mrs. Hampden lives in Bright
street. She had been married
W years. and lived somewhere
in New York with Connors. She
often came over to see her sister. She
aud Smith were old friends and it is be-
lleved they met casually and
made a very sudden determination
to elope. Smith had been paid
a day or two before his disappearance.
He did not return the papers and
Engineer Harrison was put to
much Inconvenience. He would like
to have Smith give informa ton about
some matters entrusted to him.
Conner has been making inquiries for
his wife in Jersey CITY and has not been
able to learn Of her whereabouts.
Smiths friends talked reluctantly
about the case and evidently did not tell
ali they know.

OF No. 504 Ferry street, Hoboken,
entered the Police Station early last
evening and ed The Sergeant at
the desk Co commit her to some
place off the streets. The girl looked
much older than her years, and bore
traces of a hardened life. She
was but scantily attired and shi v
cred with the cold. Though bearing
traces OF a life of shame, yet as she stood
at the desk she held down her head and
tears wrlled to her eyes as she begged to
be taken from the ttrset. Her father was
notlned and endeavored to persuade her
TO return home, but she resolutely re-
fused, fearing again her evil c~ompanio4s.
Recorder McDonough sent her TO the
County Jail, and her father will endeavor
to have hor sent to some girls home.
