FUN AIT PARK
DESPITE RAIN
Queen Tiiania and Her Subjects
in Midst Of the Annual
Festivities.
AsBURY PARK, N. j., August 30

ASBURY PARK, n. j., August 80.
Queen Titania stamped her pretty
foot last night and cried shame on
the weather man, the only disloyal
subject in the kingdom of Asbury.
This conspirator against the peace of
the realm poured out torrents all day
upon Castle Arcade where her majes-
ty was announced to give a court ball
last night. So incessant was the del
uge that a good many of the queens
subjects packed their trunks and quit
the realm.
But Titania was not to be outdone
by a mean old disgruntled weather
man. So she logged in her royal fin
cry tonight, and, collecting the maids,
the court Jester, who felt too depress-
ed to be- funny; Princess Cinderella,
Prince Charming and a dozen pages,
formed a royal procession that dis
pensed with outsiders and rolled to
the Castle Arcade in royal coaches.
The queen and her ladies took
royal roller chairs on the boardwalk,
and, having been safely rolled into
the throne room, Titania sat under a
purple colored canopy with the maids
at the royal feet, and received her
guests with royal dignity. There was
a wealth of military lace and tinsel
from Sea Girt. Many high born ladies'
of the realm danced before the bril-
liant court.
Tho ouean descnndnd from har
throne and danced with Prince
Charming. Princess Cinderella dane
ed; so did the maids. The populace
dispensed confetti and serpentine on
the ballroom floor. Twenty doves
were released, and sped happily
through the darkened space.
At II o'clock the queen went home
and presumably retired to the royal
couch, although the chronicles are
silent about this.
Court JUNIORS last night were that
Queen Titania talks of sending the
royal police after the weather man,
who has spoiled the royal sports, and
a second proclamation, commanding
clear skies, is expected from the royal
heralds today. The first one had
about as much effect as the efforts of
a certain famous king who thought
he could do stunts with the.
Last night the realm of Asbury
was in the dumps, and a masque fete,
a baby parade and a lake carnival are
still on tap. ae

TUG SUNK IN SLIP

Thrown upon its beam ends by the
shifting of its cargo of scrap iron, a
Pennsylvania Railroad lighter sunk
the tug America in the slip between
Piers 3 and a, East River, early last
night. Captain Wilson ahdpthei crew
of six men on the tug saved them
selves by climbing to a scow lying
alongside just as the tug went down.
The starboard side of the lighter was
stove in, and the heavy cargo slid
over to the port side. Relieved of
the weight, the lighter became water
logged. I3n4I U
The shifting of the lighters cargo
was primarily due to her collision in
the middle of the East River, off
Pier A, with another tugboat, whose
identity was not learned. The light
er was in the tow of the tug Juniata,
in charge of Captain John Duskabe,
on her way up the East river. The
unknown tug scraped the Juniata
and struck the lighter a violent blow
The loose cargo of scrap iron was
thrown to the port side. VI
Captain Duskabe turned into the
slip between Piers 8 and 4, hoping to
tie up the lighter before the cargo
was lost overheard. The America
was in the slip waiting to tow two
street cleaning department scows out
to sea. The second accident was
caused by the cargo of scrap iron
again shifting.

TO BLOCK PAYMENT.
Newark MayOraIty Candidate Seeks
Injunction to Tie Up Money.

NEWARK, Aug. 30.-As a citizen
and a taxpayer, as he asserts, and as
independent candidate for the Office
of Mayor of Newark, Joshua Brierley
has obtained from Vice Chancellor
Pitney a rule directing the Mayor and
Common Council of Newark and the
Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
Railroad Company to show cause
why an injunction should not issue
restraining the final payment of
$15O,00O by the city to the railroad
in connection with the elevation and
depression of the Lackawanna tracks.
The order is returnable September IL.
81 understand" says Mr.. Briefly.
that in Elizabeth the Jersey Cen
trail and Pennsylvania companies ell
evated their tracks and the munich
pal authorities there paid nothing to-
ward the cost of elevation. In Jer-
sey City both the Erire and Pennsyl-
vania elevated their tracks, in New
Brunswick the Pennsylvania elevat-
ed its tracks and in Summit the Lack
awanna elevated its tracks, and in
none of these cases did the munich
palities pay anything to the railroad
companies toward the cost of the i'm
provements."
Earlier in the year, Mr.. Briefly
says, he decided to bring such a suit,
but thought it better to wait until
the Common Councils special COM
mittee on Lackawanna track eleva-
ton and depression had brought in
its report. Now that 1t is known
what this report will be, he believes
it time to take action to determine
to bright of the railroad company to
receive the final payment of $780,
900 out of a total of 5000, 900.

CAUGHT BY ANCHOR.
New York Woman WhirIed 500 Feet
SkyWard.

KINGSTON, N. Y, Aug. 30.-Caught
by the anchor of n balloon and whirled
800 feet in the air over the heads of
5000 spectators, Mrs. Roper, a Brook
Ign woman, was seriously but not
fatally hurt at the Ulster County fair
at E%llenville. Maggie Daley of Mid
dletOwn, n. Y, who has been making
daily ascensions at the fair grounds in
a hot air balloon, had just entered the
car and was about to give the order to
cast off when the balloon broke loose
and sailed upward, with the anchor
trailing.
Before the ~bystanders could scatter
the anchor fuke caught in the dress OF
the woman, and she was whipped up
into the air screaming. The weight on
the anchor rope caused the balloon to
tip over, and Miss Daley, looking out
of the car to ascertain the cause Of the
trouble, caught sight of her involun-
tary fellow voyager swinging far be-
low at the end of the rope and at once
pulled the safety cord. The balloon.
which by that time had reached an al
titude of 800 feet, quickly descended
and reached ground a quarter of Il
mile from the point of ascension.
The woman struck the ground heavi-
ly and when picked up was found to
be unconscious and to have sustained
fractures Of the shoulder, ankle and
several fingers. All that could be
learned about her was that she was
from Brooklyn and had been summer
ing at Walker Valley. Ulster county.
