AT the conclusion of the business meet

in which he stated that under no con-
sideration would he accept the Aldermanic
nomination in the spring. He said thai
he had carefully considered the matter
and came to the conclusion that the duties
of the club would prohibit him from rum
ming again. He added that he would not
have time to attend to the club affairs If
| elected Alderman, and, further, that there
are plenty of Republicans in the ward
capable of filing the position.
The Minkakwa's new president is now
looked upon as the leader of the ward,
but he modestly says that there is moth
ing in such rumors. However, he will!
| be oke to as such, as Treasurer Michael
Schultze. the former leader, has relin-
pushed the position. Mr.. Fry is well
liked in Greenville and is very popular.

though the Burns faction really mean

a new Republican club in that section.

the formers defeat for County Cpmmlt-

EE2]EEEEG
DOESN'T FEAR THIRTEEN.
Secretary of Merchants Protective
Association Not Superstitious.

The lowering of the initiation fee by the
Merchants Protective Association, from
IS to 81, resulted, last night, in the init1a-.
ton of seven new members. This lucky
Biblical number was locke upon as a
good omen by the merchants present.
Last nights meeting was the first since
the regular annual meeting. j. Wallace
Black, the new secretary, takes no STOCK
in omns. however. He alluded to the fact
tbat~there were just thirteen members or
the association present when the roll WIS
called. others came in afterwards. He
had lust counted $13 of a pile of bills in
front of him. Il have never found ID to
be an unlucky number he said. II have
been married thirteen years. | made my
first deposit of S13 in bank for one of my
children. and l lived for awhile at No. 1873
Palisade avenue" It was afterwards re-
called that on one occasion while hustling
politically against Alderman Hartmann
he treated thirteen men at a bar and was
defeated.
The receipts of the association last night
amounted to $50. OF the seven members
who were admitted Mr.. Banks handed in
three applications, President Cough one,
and Alderman Howeth two. The new
members are:-J. P. DAILY, No. 100 Cor
Nelson avenue; o. M. Kagan, No. All
Grove street; Henry Kohl, No. 35S Grove
street; ]. K. Schultz, No. $50 Summit ave-
nue.; Charles Wolken, No. All Tonnele
avenue; Charles lowering, No. 5SS SUM
nit avenue, and A. De Pue. The appli-
cation of A. J. Debell, of No. 81 Erie
street, was also received.
Mr.. Banks had his recent communion
ton advocating a discussion of the scheme
to consolidate the cities and towns of
Hudson county into one municipality, re-
ferred to the new executive committee.
| Should the committee report favorably
the subject will be taken up for discussion
at the next meeting.
President Cough announced his COM
mittees as follows:-Executive Committee,
A, e. Roy, H. Hoersch, j. w. Beach,

Kaufman, Valentine Goelz and III.
| Schmidt.
The question was asked by a member
if Counsellor Anderson had reported upon
the constitutionality of thes new scales,
weights and measures ordinance. The
secretary reported that he had not. Mr..
Anderson was not present. A letter was
received from j. T. DAILY. of No. lSO Cor,
nelson avenue, one of the newly elected
members. -complimenting he association
on its work and asking to be placed upo
| the honor roll of the association. The
contents of the letter formed principally
a TRADE of abuse against politicians. .

DANCING STOPPED.
And Arcanum Hall Loses Several
Lodges as Tenants.

The officers of the. Unique Building AS
ISOLATION, which owns a Hall, at
jackson and Clinton avenues, are having
trouble with a number of lodges. which
meet there. The controversy came
through a notice which is tackled up on
the wall at the entrance to the hall. 1t
is as follows
"Notice-The lodge rooms shall be used
only for lodge urposes and dancing will
not be permitted at any time or under
any circumstances. Any lodge not wish
ing to comply with this rule will please
notify the Superintendent.
"By order of the Unique Building AS
ISOLATION, w. L. Scott, secretary"
This notice was put up because dane
ing wore out the carpets and raised
much dust. Another reason given is that
the lodges were making a public dance
hall of the building by holding informal
receptions after the meetings.
Two lodges have found quarters else
where since the first of the year, because
dancing was stopped. They are:-Patri-
otto Sons of America and Onward Coun-
ell, Independent Order of Odd Fellows.
The members of Onward Council No. IS,
Daughters of Liberty, and Loyal Council,
No. 6. D.. of L., have been looking about
for other meeting places, as they de-
clare the rule laid down BY the owners
Of the building has spoiled their enjoy
ment. There is no doubt but that these
two lodges will also seek new quarters
w. Douglass, ~janitor of the building,
said ast@evening that the dancing had
got TO be the biggest kind of a nuisance.
"on many occasions" he said, 4 Y
had to turn people away who came &c
attend dances held by the lodges after
meetings. They came. thinking it was g
public dance, and matters got so bad
that the practice had to be done away
with. Entertainments are allowed and re-
freshments may be served, but dancing
will never be permitted.
The officers Of the association refuse te
discuss the matter.
