TRIED TO RUN THE ST. DENNIS.
Proprietor, However, Had a Stalwart
Bartender There to Do That.

Albert and Elmer Carson, of Keyser
Valley, were locked up in the Center
street station house yesterday for rails
ing disturbance in the st. Dennis.
They were trying to play a nickeI-in-
the-slot machine that was out of order,
and when they discovered it would not
work, demanded of the bartender that
he return them the equivalent of the
three nickels they spent ascertaining
that the sign "Out of Order" posted on
the front of the machine meant all it
said.
The bartender said them nay, and
they proceeded to raise a rumpus.
When Patrolmen McMullen and Neuls
rescued the bellgerent brothers from
the trouble they had brewed, they were
a sorry looking pair. The hospital
would be filter place than the station
house for their detention. The main
reason for locking them up was to keep
them out of further bother.

REPUBLICAN CAUCUS.

Shortly after o'clock the Republica n
| selectmen assembled in their chamber
across the corridor and word was sent
| to the clerks office for Mr.. Lansing and
| Mr.. Schneider to give their attendance
| at the caucus. After some discussion
as to the most eXpedient way of at
| tending to both duties the two Repub-
! lican committeeman arranged that they
should attend the caucus and that Mr..
Roche and Mr.. Boland should await
their return, when the remaining busi-
ness of the committee could be dis
! patched.
! Then it was that Mr.. Lavelle served
as a reminder Of Thatcher's story.
Wrinkles" Mrs. Thatcher would say,
| when she wanted coal ordered, you'll
have a freezing time of it pretty soon if
somebody doesn't order coal before
| long" And if Mr.. Thatcher intended
to stay down town he would say,
| Wrinkles, you needn't expect your
master home for dinner tonight" And
So on.
This pleasant occupation cut out for
Mr.. Lavelle would not have been so
bad had it not been that the Republi-
can caucus got into a deadlock. 1t
was expected tnat the meeting would
be over with in short order but it was
found that the two candidates, Messrs.
| Williams and Wagner, were equal fa-
vorites. Each had six supporters and
each set Of supporters was steadfast.
Ballot after ballot was taken with the
same result every time, Williams, 6;
Wagner, 6.
TOSSED UP A PENNY.
Finally it was suggested that the
decision be made by lot. Toss up a

agreed. Heads" called williams
Tails will do" said Wagner. Mr..

down "heads" and the deadlock was

Then Messrs. Lansing and Schnei-

Russian Woman Comes Here For Her
Husband and Losses S970.

Among the Storage passengers ON the
neutrality-suspicious. liner Pennsylvania,
which arrived in Hoboken yesterday af-
ternoon, was Mrs. Gerre Sanarktowa, a
native Of Russia, who has come to this
country to look for her deserving hus-
band. She is 81 years old, and she has
three young children in Russia.
She seems TO have been overtaken by a
succession of misfortunes. She reported
Thursday to the officers of the ship that
she had been robbed of 1910, all she had in
the world. This sum Mrs, Saharktowa
said she had kept in her stocking. She
did not discover her loss until Tuesday.
Part of the 1910 was in Russian roubles
and the remainder comemrcial paper.
All the Barge Office nine women who
occupied the same steerage quarters as
Mrs. Saharktowa. were searched upon
the Pennsylvaria's arrival, but the money
was not recovered. A man in the second
cabin. who was also suspected of aking
the money was searched without result.
Saharktowa deserted his wife three
years ago. He is supposed to be stopping
at Rochester. N. X.
Detective Weinthal boarded the Penn
sylvania when she reached Hoboken. but
was not authorized TO make any search
for the missing money.
