Card from the Mayor.

To the Editor of the Lambertville
Record:
As have been criticised by some per-
sons for being present at the minstrel
show last week, l will state that believe
| have the right to go to any entertain
ment 10 my official capacity. While /
remained, nothing occurred more than is
usually done 10 an ordinary circus which
is bad enough to say the least. After
left the room and the manager had made
an indecent announcement, policeman
Cummings also came out at once by the
side door as he had entered, crossed over
by the head of the steps and raped at the
door OF The private entrance TO the stage
and notified the manager that il anything
indecent was TO be produced, he would
have them all put under arrest. Soon
after, the curtain was dropped and the
show was over.
Mr.. George W. Trauger, of the show
licensing committee, has likewise been
ceusured, but he was innocent of any
wrong doing, thinking it an ordinary min
strel troupe, and not supposing it was OF
a questionable character.
Hereafter either myself or Policeman
Cummings will be present at all the
shows, 10 the interest of decency. PEG
pie know well enough that go to such
shows out of no morbid curiosity.

Mr. j. F. Lambert, OF West Amwell,
informs US that the reported injury TO his
wife's face by the use of a toothache lini.
ment is greatly exaggerated, the reports
in several daily and weekly papers of last
week being quite sensational. The facts
are, that Mrs. Lambert applied some ere.
osote to an aching tooth. In doing so
some of the creosote got on her fingers
and her fingers having been thoughtlessly
touched to her cheek, the creosote on them
caused two or three small blisters, which
healed some days ago without any
scars whatever. The accident occurred
nearly four weeks ago, 80 that the item
was rather stale when it got into the pa
pers, and stripped of its inaccuracies it
was not important enough to print at any
time.

gifts. They attempted the same "sDide"

10 go unpublished. The State Gazette OF

children yesterday on q miserable show

and appeared 10 Central Court last night
as prisoners. William Rodman testified
that wretched performance was given
and that misrepresentation were made
as TO the gifts promised the children.

to say 10 their own defence and remand
ed them until this morning. Hundreds
of children were very indignant al the
treatment they received.
