THIEVES AT THE FAIR.
Hoboken Teachers Bazaar Suffers
From Thefr Despredations.

From Their Despredotions.
The Grand Bazaar of Nations, which
the Teachers Mutual Aid Association of
Hoboken have been holding all the week
in Quartette Club Hall, win close tonight
with a dance. The attendance at the
fair has been very large every night,
especially so Wednesday and last nights.
A matinee was held for the smaller chill
dren yesterday afternoon and it drew so
many of the little tots to the hall that
over 100 of them were unable to gain
adnittance owing to the a of room.
The sale of articles has been very brisk
at all the booths, ard it is safe to say
that nearly If not fully $1,000 will be real
ICED. Last night a number of Wheelmen
from the Castle Point Cyclers' stag and
several prominent politicians and their
wives dropped" in for a few minutes.
Ever since the bazaar opened a number
of mail articles have been missed from
time to time, which is supposed to be the
work of petty thieves, as the doors are
securely locked each night and two Off
GERS have been on watch constantly day
n night.
There will be no entertainment this
evening, and at ten O'Clock P. NJ. the
booths will be all taken down and the
floor cleaned for the dancers. All goods
left over will be auctioned off.

The past week has been an eventful
one of the bowlers of Hudson county,
none of the teams rolling in tournaments
outside of this city having met with
any great success. The New Jersey
Bowling Association tournament, how
ever, which is strictly a local affair, has
furnished a number of good games. The
Pioneers and Hilltops, having rolled no
games, still remain in first and second
place respectively. The Atlantics, who
started the week occupying third place,
received a double defeat and are now in
ninth place. The Jollys, who were fourth,
having not rolled, went up one. The
Spartans improved their position. By win
ming two games they jumped into fifth
place. Following is the record to date:-
