Equitables a brace of tallies. The
Marions made a grand rally in the
eighth and had the crowd 'applauding
wildly whilst they sent four runs
across the plate. A wild pitch that
Lyons struck at on the third strike
started the trouble. Tommy reached

walked filling the bases. Calvin then
landed on the ball, scoring Lyons and
Kruger. Hoffner's double followed

Stephen SahO Tells Story in
Police Headquarters Was
Arrested.
GOING TO SOUTH RIVER.
Man from PassaiC Arrives in Perth AmbOy
Late at Night and Has Several Exper-
lences Before DayIight-Men Offered
to Take him to Police Headquarters
Lead him Away.

Stephen Sabo, according to story told
in police court yesterday morning, was
beaten and robbed of $50 and scarf pin
worth So. at o'clock Saturday night
within stones throw of the Baptist
church on Fayette street.
Sabo was arrested by officer Jensen at
the request of Thomas Lucas, whose
window he had broken i'll an attempt o
get help after he had been beaten and
left helpless on the sidewalk Instead
of getting help from Lucas, who had
been aroused by the sound of the
breaking glass he got another good
beating over the head with cane in
the hands of Mr.. Lucas, who is cripple.
The first thought that entered Mr.. Lucas
mind was that Sabo was drunk and had
broken the glass purposely. Yesterday
morning Mr.. Lucas appeared in court
to press the charge, but after he heard
the story told by Sabo, he was sorry
he had hit the man and withdrew the
charge.
Sabo said he was a Hungarian,
thirty three years old and that his
home was at 80 Dayton avenue, Pas
saic. He arrived in this city on the
10. % p. m. Pennsylvania train. He
was on his way to see a friend named
Steve Hollis, at South River, but find
ing he could not get train he asked
for Hungarian Hotel and was direct
ed to Columbia Hall. There was a
ball going on and he stayed there
until midnight when the place was
closed up and, not knowing where to
go, he asked to be directed to the
police station.
A policeman did so and he was
walking down Smith street when some
men met him and offered to show him
the way. Sabo went with them. In
stead of taking him to police head
quarters, however, he was led down
High street and up Fayette to Me-
chanic street where the men pounceo
upon him, beat and robbed him. The
man was discharged and was advised
to stay around town for a day or so
pending an investigation by the police.

EFFORT TO PUT
new YORK men
AT WORK FAILS.

At 10 O'Clock this morning five
amalgamated painters arrived in town,
having been sent to this city by two
bosses who engaged them in New
York. When the out of town painters
arrived in Perth Amboy over the
Staten Island Railroad there was a
delegation of painters on hand to try
and persuade them not to go to work.
The painters took the amalgamated
men to their rooms in Smith street
where, after an hour and half con-
sultation, the out of town men decid-
ed not to go to work under any con-
sideration at all, and they left on the
II. .55 train to return to New York.
One of the amalgamated painters,
before they left town, said to News
reporter;
Perth Amboy evening news., 1903-06-15

This morning the people who en-
gagged us told us that they were unable
to secure any painters in this city at
all and that they would be willing 10
pay us $3. 90 day for eight hours and
guarantee us years work Now we,
not knowing that there was any
trouble in this place, promptly took
them up and came here, expecting to
start right to work, but the way things
stand we are going right back home,
for we are as good union men as the
local fellows and we will not take
bread and butter out of any one s
month. -
The Building Trades Council and
the Central Labor Board both had
meetings Saturday night and both
bodies agreed to back the painters in
whatever they did.

Thief Seized Her Watch in Broad

SHE CAUGHT HIM BY EAR

Mrs. Sophia Laevison, Of Sixth and
Washington streets, one Of Paducah' q
best known and most respected ladies,
had an exciting encounter with three
young men at Fourth and Broadway
yesterday afternoon about 8 80 O'Clock.
but he- pluck and bravery saved her
several hundred dollars
She was shopping with two friends
from Cairo and had Just left the Nc
Pherson drug store to cross the
street towards Alvey's drug store
when three young men walked mp be-
hind her and attempted to snatch her
watch and diamond pendant.
One reached over her shoulder and
secured hold Of the thin chain, which
broke and let the watch drop to the
street. Mrs. Lseyison was on the
alert, however, and grabbed the man
by the ear pulling him down as she
reached down and picked up the
watch from the street. He then made
another grab, this time for the dia-
mond pendant but she struck him with
her parasol and drove him back. The
men thwarted in their purpose then
jumped on fast moving street ca,

Sights and Childress on Fifth stree
near Broadway. At the time of tn,
attempted robbery which was over il
few seconds, there were very few
people on the street bat the affair
created some little excitement after
the facts became known.
Mrs. Laevison's watch is an old but
valuable one and cost $3.50 many years
ago, being an old Swiss watch and a
delicate piece OF work The pendant
is also very valuable and she considers
her escape very fortunate. This is the
only attempted robbery or holdup of
its kind reported as a result of yester-
days circus crowds.
Mrs. Laevison is confident all that
saved her is the fact that she managed
to get the young reprobate by the ear
and hold MIN until she could recover
the watch and prevent his running
away with it.

Thieves get into Residence of

Steal About $l60 Worth of Goods,
Including Diamond Ring

Burglars entered the residence OF
Mr.. joe Bondurant at Sixth and Har-

the means they adopted in securing

This morning when the family rose
the jewelry was missing and a thor

The burglars knew the house we'll,
Mr.. Bondurant thinks, as no doors
shows any signs of having been tam.
peret with and the windows remained
as secure as when the family retired.
Ii is thought skeleton keys were used.
The ring was valued at about SIS, the
watch at s75 and the pocketbook con-
tanned several dollars.
This is about the only theft of con-
sequence reported. 1t is impossible
to prevent grafters and thieves from
following circuses, as all detectives
and police officers now realize, but
yesterday there was an unusually
small number Of offenses incident to
the visit Of circuses.
A great many people yesterday
placed their jewelry, money and other
valuables in the safe until after the
departure of the show, as often the
crooks get in their work while the
family is at the circus.
This afternoon burglary at the
home of Mr.. ]. Andy Bauer, at Eighth
and Madison streets, was reported at
police heado uarters. The theft is
supposed to have Deen committed yes
