Rochester turned the tables on the Jer-

for nine hits and yet were unable to
turn one of them to account Moskimon
pitched for Jersey City and allowed but
five hits, but he also issued couple Of
free passes. The Skeeters were beaten
by the snappy fielding of the Broncos.
Clement, the first man to face Mclean,
made cameo hit Bean, who was next
man up, did the same. Cassidy flied out
to right. Hanford was passed to first
1t looked well for the Jerseys, but
Clement was cut off at the plate, and
Halligan was put out at first. No runs
were scored until the sixth inning, when
two Broncos crossed the plate on a base
on balls, a sacrifice and two hits. Duffy
got a pass and reached second on Moran's S

every indication that through hit or en-

Beautiful Dog That Accom-
panied Chemical Engine
No. 4 On All Trips Falls a
Victim to Duty
DIED ON FALSE ALARM
HE NOW LIES IN a sATIN-LINED
COFFIN. AND HIS FUNERAL
WILL BE LARGELY ATTENDED
TOMORROW

There is mourning among the members
of Chemical Engine Company No. 4. To-
Gated in Fourth street Punch, a
splendid specimen of dog of the black
and white dotted variety, was run over
and killed by the engine while the mem
bers of the company were responding TO
a false alarm sent out from Colgate and
Second streets last night. Punch was
what is generally known by horsemen as
a carriage dog. He always ran with the
horses and has accompanied those in the
service of the engine company on many
a mad rush to fire. Indeed. it is claim
ed by one of the members Of The COM
pany that Punch" knew as Wei as
themselves the location of FIRE after an
alarm came in. He was the mascotte of
the company and was considered by the
members as a fellow member The ac-
eident that caused Punch's death was
due to sudden swerve of the engine in
an effort of The driver to dodge a trolley
car.
On the return trip from the location
from where the false alarm was sent in
the fremen stopped and picked up
"Punch's' mutilated corpse and took it
with them to the engine house. A satin
lined coffin has been ordered and the pet
ted Punch will be given a funeral ae-
companied with pomp and ceremony to-
morrow afternoon.

PARIS ON ROOSEVELT

PARIS, May 1S, President
Roosevelt's fight with the United States
Senate and the breaking away from es-
tablished methods and ideals of the Re-
publican party are commented upon by
the Paris newspapers to-day at great
length. The press agrees in the opinion
that it presages great changes in the
whole conception of politics in the Unit
ed States. The Journal des Debats says
that Mr.. Roosevelt's action must newt
ably cause just such resetting of lines
as recently took place in Australia and
England. 1t says further
President Roosevelt's conversion to
radicalism comedies with the remarkable
upspringing of Socialistic ideas in trans
Atlantic thought and implies that he is
taking this line so as to secure his re-
election in 1905
'erhe energy of this imperious man is
intact and the hour of his repose will not
soon strike 1t is impossible to conceive
that Theodore Roosevelt can be satisfied
in two years with premature political ex-
tinction, and how could he renounce the
exercise on public life Of his preponder-
ant influence

ASBURY- PARK, May 18, 1906
With June /, which used to be looked
upon as the opening date of the season,
still nearly two weeks away, the good
old summer time" seems to have return
ed. The warm weather of the last three
days has brought people down from
Newark and outlying districts in large
numbers. To-day and yesterday the
boardwalk strollers were more numerous
than they have previously been in late
June. Girls have promenaded the beach
in full summer costume and straw hats
made their appearance this morning.
Many of the booths and refreshment
stands back in Kingsley street andJin the
pavillions along the walk are open and
doing considerable business. The talk of
obtaining regular beach music to play
until Pryors commencement grows stron-
ger and it is believed a musical organi-
cation will be obtained very shortly.

dation of West Park and .Asbury Park

There is much competition and rivalry
among the Faganites and the followers
of Col. Dickinson in the sale of outing
tickets. Every Fagan policeman and
fireman has block of the Fagan club
tickets. This is big advantage, while
there are many friends of the Dickinson
Club in both these departments, they
cannot show their hands like the Fagan-
ties. 1t would be worth their jobs if
they were caught disposing of tickets for
the Dickinson outing. The Pagan tickets
are selling faster than the Dickinson
tickets. That doesn't mean, though. that
the Pagan cutting will be the larger of
the two. Many merchants and saloon
keepers and property owners are buying
Pagan tickets because they deem it to
their interest to do so. A majority Of
these tickets will not be used. No ione
is compelled to buy a Dickinson ticket.
and the members are confident that no

1t is rather significant that Tax Com
missioner Weastell is disposing of more
Pagan tickets than any one else. Last
year he was at the top of the list in the
number of tickets sold for the Dickinson
Club. AS Tax Commissioner he doesn't
have much difficulty in getting rid of
tickets for any project in which he is
interested. He would find it .uite diff
erent if he were plain John Weastell.
Some property owners have regard for
him as Tax Commissioner that they
would not have if he did not hold that

If. there are two physicians in Jersey
