Blocked Market Street Sunday and Occu-
pied the Park Monday Night.
When the Volunteers of America left
the Park Monday evening after their
customary meeting, seedy-looking in
dividual, with powerful voice, took ad-
vantage of the crowd already assembled
to continue the services. He had spoken
only few minutes when Officer Hender-
shot took him into custody.
AT police headquarters the itinerant
evangelist said his name was Joseph Car
dell, and he claimed Chicago as his home.
He admitted having spent some time in
an institution for the insane. On Sun
day morning he took up position in the
center of Market street, near the Park,
and from a bible discoursed for some
time before an officer ordered him to
cease, owing to the unusual crowd that
gathered and blocked the thoroughfare.
He applied to Mayor Quayle for license
to preach, which, of course, that official
could not grant, Justice Cliff dis
charged the eccentric individual with a
reprimand.

Company to be Organized Which Will
Improve the Resort.
SpeedWell Lake Park has been closed
for the season and John E. Melick, who
was promoter of the pleasant little one
day resort, expresses satisfaction with
the seasons business. While it was the
first year for an attraction of the kind in
this vicinity, the results were such as to
justify the making of greater improve
ments in the grounds and general sur
roundings. Looking to this end, COM
pany is about to be formed under the
style of the Speedwell Lake Park Asso-
citation.
The boat landing will be improved,
the bicycle track enlarged and consider
able grading done. It is also the inten-
ton of the company to build road
house to be conducted on the temperance
plan and located at the top of the hill,
overlooking the lake, and from which a
view of Morristown may also be had.
The tracks Of the Rockaway Valley rail-
road are to be extended to the grounds,
thus assuring an increased number of
visitors to the Park.

Offenders Brought to Justice During the
Past Week.
While Chief Holloway was on his way
home Saturday night he was accosted by
a man who stepped out from the Park
and addressed some words to the officer.
The latter advised him not to make SO
much noise, but he did not heed the
warning, and companion with the
offender joined in making the disturb
ance. Both were drunk and the officer
arrested the man who had first stopped
him, but the second escaped. The Chief
had some difficulty in taking the prisoner
tc the p9 station, Before Justice
Cliff the man said he was jeremiah Hen
dershot. He was given four days and
obliged TO pay costs, and another charge
has been preferred for assaulting an
officer.
Stephen johnson was holding a little
celebration of his own in the Park Satur-
day evening that seemed to displease
Officer Holloway. At least, this is the
supposition, for johnson was hastily
transported to the police station, where
he paid So and costs.
On charge of being drunk and dis
orderly Michael Barry was on Tuesday
sentenced to four days and to pay costs.
