ST. JOHNS CLASSES.
Dancing and Dressmaking Les
sons Begin = Basket
ball Team Active.

The st. Johns Bulletin of Saturday
last contained the following notices con-
cerning classes formed as part of the par
ish work of st. Johns P. E. church.
The dancing class started off with its
usual eclat on Wednesday evening. The
Beginners divisio is entirely-full; not an
other member can possibly be admitted.
There is room for very few more in
the Advanced division, because some of
those who had handed in their names did
not appear. The list will be closed prob
ably on Wednesday night next, and it
will be first come first served.
The dressmaking class will begin on
Friday evening Nov. 13 1t will meet in
the large Guild room, No. I, in the Par
ish House. Here is fine opportunity
for learning the fundamentals Of plain
dressmaking, and we trust it will be ap-
preciated. Twenty lessons in the course.
Fee $500.
On Tuesday night, Novernber 10, the
basket ball team, will open the season
with the Young Mems League of Ho.
boken, and a very interesting game is ex-
pected. Hereafter games will be played
on Wednesday nights, and Friday nights,
games will be played on opponents
courts.
Captain Packer expects to carry his
team through the season without a single
defeat, and as this is the best team St
Johns has ever had in basket ball, they
expect to have crowded house at every
game. The admissions to all games will
be ten cents, and ladies' will be admitted
free. On November IS, the boys will
play the strong Warren A. C.'s second
team of this city.

LITTLE Gambling,

Chief Murphy Asserts the
CityIs as Clean Of Crime
as Ever Before.
THAT EXCHANGE PLACE RAID
Police Furnished Plenty of Evi-
dence But the Case Was
Never Sent to the
Grand Jury.
THAT EXCHANGE PLACE RAID

Chief Murphy is ineensed at the re-
marks made by Prosecutor Speer at the
recent dinner of the West Side Club
in which the Prosecutor intimated, in
fact, practically charged, that pools were
being run in various sections with the
full knowledge of the police of the vari-
Gus cities and other municipalities of the
county.
Chief Murphy, of this city, this morn
ing gave out the following statement
The Prosecutor of the Pleas says
that maybe one conviction will be
enough to drive the gamblers out of
business
''In the fore part Of July received
word from detectives attached to this
Office that a pool room was running in
Exchange place. After several days
watching from building across the
street became satisfied that it would be
quite easy to oct into this pool room.
Detective McNally was sent by me to
this gambling place and instructed what
to do As the door was practically open
McNally succeeded in getting in and
arresting all who were running the game.
Sufficient evidence was secured, in my
opinion, to convict these people of selling
pools on horse racing. Two Grand Juries
have been in session since then, but. as
far as l know, no subpoenas have been
issued for the review of this case by the
Grand Jury.
open and defiant gambling is not toll
Grated in this city, in fact, our city is as
clean of such crime as it ever has been.''
