CARNIVAL FUND
GROWS RAPIDLY.
Latest Contributions Bring Total
Amount up to Nearly $500 With
Considerable in More Sight.

The popularity of the carnival
movement is growing by leaps and
bounds and todays added list of sub
scriptions almost doubles the previous
total of $3.50. 81 and brings the amount
up to within a few cents of $500.
Added to this is the promise OF G. @.
Baldwin of the Standard Underground
Gable Works of check of SAT, which,
together with the $50 promised by S.
B. Morgan, of the Pardee paint, will
make handsome addition. These gifts
cannot be appended to the list, how
ever, until the money or its equiva-
lent is laid upon the treasurer, Harry
Conard's desk.
The readiness with which those ap-
preached for subscriptions respond, is
a guarantee of the success of the
carnival, and this city will undoubt-
edly have the honor of surprising its
success achieved along these lines two
years ago. The committees are max
ing all possible progress ana the con-
tributions are coming in rapidly.

THE PEOPLE
PERTH AMBOY
ARE TO VOTE FOR.
The Election this Year Taking Shape Primary Law Brings
Politics out Early and the Date for Convention has ALREADY
Been Fxed-- Offices in the Different Wards to be FMedFour
Members of the Board of Aldermen be Chosen by People,

Election time is approaching and
will be here almost before The voters
realize what has happened. The
primary law brings the primaries very
early and the parties will hold their
conventions shortly afterward. AL
ready the Republicans have fixed the
date of their county convention, to
be held the day following the prim-
aries.
Thus far little is heard in this city
about politics. The county will elect
one senator, three assemblymen and
coroners. In Perth Amboy, besides
voting for these, an alderman at large
will be on the ticket and freeholder
in each ward. OUher candidates to be
elected are:
First ward, one constable.
Second ward, alderman and school
commissioner.
Third ward, one justice of the
peace.
Fourth ward, one alderman and
school commissioner.
Fifth ward, one Justice of the peace.
Sixth ward, one alderman and a
school commissioner.
The dates for the city conventions
have not yet been fixed. Everything
is being kept very low now. Both
sides plead ignorance as to who their
candidates will be-. The labor ticket,
it is expected, will shortly be named
and is bound to cut in somewhere.
One thing is assured, politics has
been forced upon the people much
earlier this year than before and 1t
may make some difference in the work
done before nominations.

MAR|ONS LOSE
GAME.
Cuban X Giants Defeat Local
Team by a Score of
7tO4.
LOCALS GOOD SHOWING.

The Marions made an excellent showing
against the Cuban X Giants Saturday
and the Strong Colored aggregation was
only enable to win by score of 7 to
after an exciting struggle, The locals
had the game 2 to 0 up to the fifth but
some good hitting coupled with some un-
fortunate errors by the home team gave
the visitors three runs in the fifth and
four more in the sixth. The MariOns
tried hard to overcome this lead and
succeeding in getting two more tallies
but hits at the right moment were not
forthcoming. The negroes had McClelland
their best pitcher ill the box, and Ielt
confident before the game of letting
down the the locals without run. The
south-paw did fine work in the box but
he wasn't equal to the task of shutting
out the Marions. McPhillips pitched i'll
in fine style except for a slight lapse il
fifth and sixth. In the seventh he showed
his calibre as slab artist and incidentally

critical situation without balloon ascen
sion. In that inning Johnson, Williams
and McClelland led off with safe hits.
With three men on bases and none out
left the locals with only small knot
hole to crawl through to escape without
letting the visitors add to their score.
They got through the aperture, however
and pulled the hole in after them Smith,
who was at the bat, was instructed to
bang at the ball and the three men on
bases started on a run. The plan mis-
carried for Smith failed to hit the ball and
Johnson was run down between home
and third. That left Williams On third
and McClelland on first. The latter
started to steal second when Smith failed
to connect for the second time but was
caught, Connolly to Moorehead while
Williams was held on third, Then Smith
famed and the inning was over.
Kiernan did some fine base running
for the Marions and Calvin hit the ball
hard and often. Jorden did the best hitting
for the visitors and Williams was the
star on the coaching lines. Mitchell had
six chances in left field and accepted them
errorlessly.

WILD CHASE
FOR A FIRE.

At Z. 45 Saturday night an alarm of
fire was turned in from box 80 at the
corner of Smith street and Kirk land
Place. The fire was in the house of
Nicholas loft, 3S Kirkland Place, and
was caused by the explosion of a
hanging lamp. When the firemen ar
rived on the scene some neighbors
had managed to throw the lamp out
OF window and put the flames out
The damage amounted to very little
When the alarm of fire was turned
in for the first call, instead of sound
ing the call of box 80 the wires got
twisted and the call was 33. The
members of Protection Hook &
Ladder Company dashed down Smith
street, toward the ferry landing at a
wild gallop only to find that they
were going in the wrong direction.
They tnrned around and then started
out Smith street looking for the fire
which they found after a great deal
of trouble. The Lincoln Hose boys
had even worse luck then the Hook &
Ladder team, for they went away out
New Brunswick avenue looking for
the trouble. After hunting for some
time they came back to their house
on State street, and after telephoning
they found out where the fire was and
once again they started out, but be-
fore they got there, the fire was out.

INJURED MANS
FATAL FALL.
William Dunnigan of Woodbridge
was Seriously Injured by
Horse Kicking Him.
AFTERWARD FELL

DIR. Ramsay was suddenly called to
the Perth Amboy city hospital Satur-
day morning by a telephone message
from DR.. Spencer, of Woodbridge, who
said that he had patient in Wood
bridge, whom he was going to bring
to the hospital and that he would like
DIR. Ramsay to be in attendance. DIR.
Ramsay left his patients while he
hurried out to the hopsitaI. After
waiting for some time at the hospital
DIR. Ramsay was again called up by
DIR. Spencer who told him that he
need not wait any longer as the man
was dead. The injured man was
William Dunnigan, who had been
kicked by horse on Friday night,
and not thinking that he was badly
injured, he had crawled to his bed in
the hay loft over the stable where he
was employed. On Saturday morning
he was unable to get up and someone
summoned DR.. Spencer, who, after ex-
amining him, found that it would be
necessary to take him to the hospital.
While DR.. Spencer was at the tele-
phone making arrangements for the
removal of the injured man the fellow
in some way or other, crawled to the
stairway which leads from the loft
the ground, and when DIR. ST
came back he found him lying
ground, dead.
