himself he came to Albany and opened
the Caterers Club in 1890, an Organiza-
ton composed of the chefs and walters
OF the principal hotels in the Capital
City. This Club fiourished for a con-
siderable period and was quite popu-

dining rooms for the convenience OF
select parties. The bar is stocked with

What Makes the Best Selling Book.

RESISTED OFFICER
AND ARRESTS FOLLOW.
Syndicate Prevents Constable
Cresswell From Serving an
Execution He Held.

A sewing machine caused a bunch
of trouble Monday. An execution
was placed in the hands of Constable
William Cresswell, and he went down
in the Second ward to the home of
Oscar and Martha Zimmerman to
corral the machine He didn't get
the machine at the first grab. When
he tried to take it the Zimmermans
and Thomas Blenning blocked the
wheels of progress, and in the yer-
nacular of the street, Cressweu was
up against it. The Constable escaped
with his life and took his troubles
over the river to the Office of Justice
of the Peace John G. Ayars. A war
rant was issued for the three afore-
said mentioned people. The COM
plaint charged them with resisting
an officer in the performance of his
duty. Constable Lore took possession
of the warrants and he had less
trouble in collecting the defendants
than the other officer had in grabbing
the machine. The trio were held for
Court.

FIRE CALLS
OUT DEPARTMENT.
Orange Street Has Bit of a
COnfiagratiOn Monday After

uOUUs
The Fire Department. had a bit of
work to do Monday afternoon, and
it was done very we'll.
Some time after four o. clock little
smdke was seen coming from a house
at the corner of Orange and Lemon
streets, and an alarm was turned in
promptly from the box at Lemon and
South Pearl streets. The Department
lnade short run of it, and Chief
Kinkle and his men soon had the
blaze in hand, and little damage was
done the property. The house belongs
to the Mrs. Moses Mulford estate,
and was unoccupied, and has been
vacant for some time. The fire is of
mysterious origin.
The Department was enabled to
fight this fire nicely Monday, because
of an addition to the apparatus which
nowadays is well nigh indispensable.
Upon the branch pipe is a shut off
in the nozzle, and when little water
is a great plenty, and when this is
shut off, an automatic valve upon the
engine closes the feeding of water
into the hose, and the steamer does
not have to close down. This gives
the firemen an opportunity to fight a
small fire with little water, and thus
saving consequent damage. The fire
yesterday afternoon demanded but a
very little water, and with this i'm
proved apparatus the firemen were en-
abled to regulate the water as deemed
best.

STATE LAW AIMS
AT DIVINE HEALER.
Mayor Payne, of Millyille, Gives
Ireland Warming to Cease
His GyratiOns.

Millville, June 2. 2.-William Francis
Ireland, of Washington, D. c., who
claims to be able to heal the sick, the
lame and the blind, the same as Christ
did, by the laying on of hands, has
run up against 'snag'' in the shape
of the New Jersey State Medical
Board. The Board informed Mayor
Payne, and he sent for Mr.. Ireland,
who has been preaching and heal
ing" persons in the streets of this
city, and told him that after to-day,
if he undertook to heal any one in the
street, he would have to ideal with
him according to the State Medical
law.
I In an interview with Mr.. Ireland
to-day he appeared very much per-
turbed over the occurrence, as he is
to be married to young lady from
Bridgeton on Thursday.

Sentenced to the State Prison for
Long Terms.
Sheriff Hendee made a trip yester.
day which will have no cheerful ending
for the four persons ompanying
him. The Sheriff returns. Months
will elapse before one of the others
returns, and long years before others
get home again.
When the O'Clock train pulled out
yesterday, the Sheriff had in the
smoking car with him William Queen,
colored, who goes up for two years;
Samuel Carter, colored, who goes up
for IS months; Albert Facemyre,
white, whose sentence is for z years
and Pasqualle Matterio, an Italian,
who gets dose of eight months.
Prisoners hooked together always
attract more or less attention down
about the depot. This morning was
no exception. Women and children
who witnessed the party, shuddered as
they looked upon the bracelets.
Others simply gazed curiously and
others joked over the poor unfortu-
mates.
Going to State Prison is an awful
thing. Imagine the thoughts of the
poor wretches as the flying trains
shorten the distance between them
and the prison. When they enter the
city they witness the great, dull
stone walls of the home, and then are
whirled on in the town. From the
station it is mile to walk or ride,
and the average victim is dull and
unhappy. He heaves a sigh and
draws long breath as he monnts the
steps. Upon the inside, the great
iron door clangs back of him, and the
world becomes to him blank.
It's an awful punishment, this serv-
ing time in State Prison, and yet many
people fail TO take warning, and
crimes are committed

SOME SENTENCES
MONDAY MORNING.
Orphans and Civil Court Business
With Some Sentences of
Criminals.

Judge Trenchard presided over the
Courts Monday morning. There was
some Orphans Court affairs to look
after, and these sentences were
pronounced:
Hannah Griner, maintaining dis
orderly house, fined $3.50.
Arthur Scudder, abuse of livery rig,
$3.50 fine.
Thomas jackson, gambling den, at
Bivalve, county Jail three months and
$75 fine. The prisoner endeavored to
convince the Court that his conviction
was mistake. The only sympathy
he got was that the Court thought
jackson was professional gambler.
A civil case was then taken up.

THIS KISS COST HIM FIFTY.
The Vineland Picture Agent Forfeits
His Bail and Skips Out.

Vineland, N. j., June 3.-It cost
George Mccarthy, the crayon portrait
canvasser, just $50 to kiss pretty Mrs.
Andrew j. Stinemyer, of Vineland.
Justice of the Peace Jones had ac-
cepted cash bail of $50 from him for
his appearance before Justice Miller
early this morning, but when the time
for the hearing arrived the accused
had disappeared, and despite a thor
ough search made for him by the
police he could not be found
Mccarthy, aged about "a years, was
well dressed and of excellent appear
ance. Upon Mrs. Stinemyers refusal
to purchase crayon portrait he ex-
claimed:
eff you don't give me an order for
a picture I will kiss your pretty red
lips"
According to the fair complainant's
testimony before Justice Jones, when
the warrant was issued, the bold
drummer deliberately threw his arms
around her and planted a resounding
smack on her reluctant lips. Mrs
Stinemyer Indignantly ordered the
audacious canvasser from her house.
Before going, however, Mccarthy
calculated: "I've kissed you once
and am of a notion to kiss you
again, but she succeeded in slam
ming the door in his face. Mrs.
Stinemyer is young and comely.

HORSE STOPPED ON
A DANGEROUS RUN.
Marty Edwards Makes a Nervy
Move and Catches the Bride
of a Horse.

Marty Edwards made a very nervy
stop of a runaway horse Tuesday
afternoon shortly after four O'Clock.
The team belonged to Seorim Dubois,
and the horse was driven by his thir-
teen n-year-old son. The horse started
on its mad run out Laurel street, be-
cause OF trace coming unfastened.
The Lad dropped one line and only
had single guide strap to handle the
horse. The animal did not stop, but
ran down Laurel street at full speed
past Washington street and was no.
ticed by Mr.. Edwards who was stand
ing in front of J. F. Johnson's feed
store. The lad in the wagon was
frightened and creating quite sensa-
tion by his frightful cries for help
Edwards made a sprint; a spring
and caught the bride of the fright
ened animal. The team was not
brought to a standstill at once, but
Marty did not let go until the horse
stopped its dangerous run. 1t was a
brave piece of work and everyone who
saw it said bad accident would have
resulted had not this been done, as at
that time there were so many wagons
down town and surely this team could
not have passed them without crash.
This is the third accident Edwards
has prevented within two weeks by
his plucky work, and each time there
has been an occupant in the buggy.

quently by the witnesses. jackson
seemed to be the gentleman of the
house in all the name implies.
Mr.. Mitchell thought jackson should
be discharged owing to lack of evil
dence. The Court did not think so,
and the case went to the jury. There
was no evidence in defense.
The bottom of the criminal business
dropped out very suddenly, and all
untried indictments go over for the
term, and jurors and witnesses were
discharged.
A jury was empanelled to return
June 18th to try civil case.
The May term of Court which was

were three civil cases tried before
