Conway a world Of good, for when toeing
the scratch for the fourth round he went
on the cut over Stacks eye. Conway
anded a left swing on Stacks jaw, which
sent the latter to the door. He took
the limit to get up. AS soon as he was
on his feet Conway led with his left
for the body; Stack tried to counter on

shot out his right, catching Stack on the

two men will take place in the near future
as Stacks friends are not satisfied, and
claim their man can win with ease.

FUN WITH A NgGAPHOgE.
CITY Clerk Murray Spent Yesterday
Puzz1lng Passing Pedestrians.
Speciol to the Jerscu Citu Noes.

TRENTON, Aug. /, 1s96.-Cify Clerk C.
Edward Murray and a number of his
associates in the City Hall had no end
of fun yesterday saluting their friends
on the street through an i~mprovised
m~egaphone and then watching the re-
suit, which was. in some instances, lu-
dicrous. The ~megaphone was a rudely
constructed affair made out of large
sheets of cardboard and paper, but it
served fts purpose admirably and rem
dered it possible to converse easily with
a person half a block away.
The pedestrian on the street was
likely to hear his name called out in a
from some place which he was unable to
locate. He would frequently turn
around and gaze up and down the street
with a bewildered air in a vain effort TO
find out who was accosting him. Some
looked up to the telegraph wires. as if
the message came from them. Several
persons were induced to stop their horses
or to jump off their Bicycles, believing
that they were wanted. Meanwhile the
little gathering in the City Clerks Office
and others who We're in the secret en-
joyed the Joke immensely.
James Moses was coming down State
street when, hearing his name called, he
stopped abruptly and seemed surprised
not to find the person who spoke. "How
are you, Mr.. Moses?' came through the
~megaphone. Mr.. Moses, who was then
standing in front of Cook & Jaoues'
store, seemed perfectly mystfied. MIR.
Moses, will you Please step into Katzen-
bach's for a minute?" was next spoken
Through the instrument Mr.. Moses did
as directed. but soon came out of the
store, more amazed than ever, and con-
tfnued down the street.
G. D. w. Vroom came along shortly
afterwards, and was kept busy for sew
erat minutes trying to find cut vino was
talking to him. He finally boarded a car
and rode away without having any addi-
tional Light thrown on the matter.
Richard Olipfanf, who was driving in
a buggy. was induced TO stop in the
belief that he was wanted. Surrogate
Cornell was also puzzled by the mega
phone, and there were a host of others
who were fooled by the device.

NEGLECTED TO PAY FOR A LICENSE
The City's Method Of bringing Saloon
keeperk 10 Task

Charles Pryor, z years old, a saloon
keeper of No. 81 Lewis street. was an
other one of the men who failed to pay
for his license and the consequence was
that he was arrested.
The charge upon which he was booked
at the station house was the violation
of a city ordinance in not having his
license posted in a conspicuous place in
his bar room. This is the only wav in
which the city can proceed against the
saloon keepers who fail to pay for their
licenses. There is a clause in the license
which orders that II must be posted in
a conspicuous place, but when the saloon
keepers have none, of course they can't
post it in any place.
Pryor secured his license yesterday af-
terlsoon and produced it in court this
morning. Judge Macs the discharged
him, but warned him to post it up in a
conspicuous place.
