mr. MURPHY'S LIKENESS.
Force of Men Places it In Con-
spiciuous Places-Faganites'
Shabby Trick.


Julius Lubbert, with a force of men,
started out this morning to decorate the
town with handsome Autographs of Po-
lice Justice Murphy, of the Democratic
Maycralty csndidate.
BY the way number of Justice Muir

not doing the Mayors canvass any good,
if one is to judge from opinions expressed
on all sides.

THOUGHT SUGAR HOUSE BLEW UP

Yesterday opened and closed with a
rain storm, hours of clear sunshine in
teryening. One of the most terrific crash
es of thunder ever heard by even old res
idents reused thousands of late Sunday
morning sleepers from their beds. who
not anticipating a thunder storm, lima gin
ed that some terrible calamity had befall-
en- the city. Many people were heard to
say that in their fright they fell ou of
bed. Down in Gammontown many who
were aroused from their sleep after they
found the buildings they were in were
safe thonght the Sugar House had blown
up. Further sullen roars of thnnder fol-
lowed by lightning and a downpour of
rain soon convinced all what had fright
ened them. In rooms that were lighted
at that hour by electricay the lights
went out
Just before six O'Clock last evening the
western sky was darkened by black
cloud that moved slowly over the city in
an easterly by north easterly direction.
A heavy descent of rain followed. Black
as the cloud was the sky was ilumina ted
at frequent intervals with sheet lightning
Between these intervals its was as dark
as night Th storm caught many who
had ventured across the river in the sun
shine of the afternoon on their return
trip lower Montgomery street was filed
with men women and children looking for
refuge from a storm that promised to be
a repetition fthe tornado tha devasted
Van Worst park and damaged and blew
down Number of houses two years ago.
A Belt Line trolley car was struck by
lightning eh the top of the Newark ave-
hue Hill. Several women complained Of
having received shocks intheir backs and
one Of them tainted.
The storm caused false alarm to
be sent from fire box No 641 and the
apparatus of various companies, respon-
ding added to the general excitement
while the storm was at its height.

ON TO WASH
lNc7ON
President Roosevelt Passes
Through the City on His
Way to the Capitol.
VACATION DAYS OVER
Crowd Collected in P. R. r.
Station to See the Nations
Executive.

President Roosevelt, accompanied by
several members of his family including
his wife, passed through this city this
morning en- route to Washington to take
up his official duties at the White House
after his vacation spent at Sycamore Hill,
Oyster Bay, New York. The party was
met by Miss Alice Roosevelt in New
York. Theodore and Kermit the two
oldest sons, are at school in Groton,
Mass.
The President left Oyster Bay in a
special train at $50 o'clock. A Special
boat conveyed the party from Long Is
land to New York. In coaches the party
made its way across Twenty-third street
to the Twenty third street ferry from
where it was transferred by another
special boat to this city. Discriminating,
the party made ITS way to the elevator
known as the northern lift at the de-
pot and was thus raised to the train
shed where special train stood awaiting
on No - track.
Quite large crowd collected to honor
the President and his family as the party
made its way from the boat to the big
train shed. The President bowed in ac-
acknowledgement to cheers. Besides being
guarded by number of Secret Service
men there were quite large detail of
local policemen under command of In
spector Archibald which amply protected
The. party from any annoyance that
might have resulted from an overenthu-
siastic and curious crowd or from any
crank with crazy notions. The train
pulled out at 11.20 o'clock. President
Roosevelt looked as though he had en-
joyed his vacation. His face was well
tanned and he looked heavier than when
he first started on his vacation.
