GROCERS' DAY OFF
THEY'RE HAVING A JOLLY
TIME OF 1T.
Many Stores Closed and Some Tardy
Housewives Serve What Is Left"
for Breakfast.

Fully 1,500 grocers. their wives, children
and sweethearts gathered in the Broad
street station of the Central Railroad this
morning to go on the annual outing of the
Newark City Grocers' Association to AS
bury Park. The outing had been arranged
by several hundred representative grocers
of the city, and many of the groceries in
the city were closed after 5 o'clock this
morning.
Old Sol arose beaming a welcome this
morning and gladdened the hearts of the
excursionists. and long before the hour
set for the departure of the special trains
the station was well filled with pleasure
seekers. The excursion left In two sec
lions, and while ample accommodations
had bden procured for the crowd expected
the hf1u of friends and their families
taxed the capacity of the cars. A shore
dinner will be served. after which a num-
Der of excursions to Belmar. Pleasure Bay,
Ocean Grove and other places adjacent to
the Park will be taken, but all the grocers
and their friends will meet at the station
at 6 p. m. to start on the homeward
journey. A number of applications were
received by President James H. Bogt and
Secretary John Watering from grocers
asking If a later homeward- bound train
could not be run, but 1t was found such

Many of the stores in the city are closed
today. as the boss grocers think that 1t
Is no more than right to give their clerks
a dav off. while others open at 7 and closed
an hour later. On the hill a number of
the stores remain open for business. as 1t
would be a great inconvenience in that
congested locality to shut off the supply
Of daily commodities. but the clerks who
will remain on duty while their fellow
workers are enjoying themselves at the
shore will be given a day off later in the
season.
A number of the grocers sent out notice
to their customers several lays ago that
they would be closed today. with the re-
suit that the housewives laid in several
DAYS provisions. but a number of tardy
hoLsekeepers, who run out In the morning
to procure the necessaries for breakfast
were disappointed. with the result that g

Already arrangements are being made
for the annual fail outing of the grocer
this fall. The trip this year will prob
ably be to the Thousand Islands, the star
being made on a Tuesday and the return
on Friday or Saturday.

AT TABLE
HOW SHERIDAN PUNISHED
LAMB CHOPS.
Restaurant Did Not Have Enough in
Refrigerator to complay with
Athletes Order.

After the games at the Vailsburg bicycle
track given last Saturday by the Columbus
Club, of his city, John f. O'Hara, chair
man of the committee that conducted the
field day, took a number of the athletes
who competed to a restaurant as his
guests for dinner. Among them was Mar
tin Sheridan, the all-around champion of
the world. When the waiter called for the
orders of the parties Sheridan said:
Bring me twenty lamb chops"
The waiter paid no attention to this,
thinking the athlete was having some fun
with him. After taking the orders of
some others in the party, the waiter went
back to Sheridan.
Now, what is your order, sir?'' queried
the waiter.
Il told you twenty lamb chops was the
answer.
Evidently the insistence by the champion
impressed the waiter with the idea that
Sheridan meant the order, but he was not
sure, and, turning to O'Hara, he asked
whether he should fill the order.
III he riders twenty lamb chops said
O'Hara, why bring them.'"
A right, SIR" said the waiter in a
tone that meant he you'd make the party
pay for the entire order If he was being
fooled.
IN a Few minutes the WalIer returned t
announce that there were onlyN seventeen
chops in the icebox. He was ordered tc
serve them. This he did, and with then
a big dish of potatoes.
Both were set before Sheridan, who, II
a dainty and leisurely way. proceeded t.
demolish one chop after the other. inter,
plating messses of potatoes in between
bites. The other diners looked on ir
a%mazement, and when Sheridan had pol
ished off the bones, asked him what wal
his method of eating.
WELL" said Sheridan, you may hav,
noticed that | took my time eating a 10
of substantial stuff, while you folks ate
little solid films and then topped thing
off with some delicacies. The delicacie
aren't Strengthening, though they ar
fancy. l do without the fancy things, and
therefore, can make room for the sub
stantials."

GERMAN ENGLISH
SCHOOL MAY CLOSE,
Directors to Consider Question Tonight.
Is Second to Be Discontinued
This Year.

There. will be a meeting of the
directors of the Newark Street Ger
manzEnglish School tonight, at which
the Question of it's discontinuance will
be discussed.
The sale of the school building will
be taken up, and II the directors decide
that the building ought to be sold, 1t
will, very likely, mean the closing up
OF the school. 1t has led a somewhat
~precarious existence for some years,
as it is a pay schQ61. and as such comes
into direct competition with the public
and p%arochial schools.
If 1t is decided to close the school
1t will be the second 1of five German
English schools in Newark to close
within n year.
The other German-English chool to
close was that in the Tenth Ward, at
n Nichols street.
The Beacon Street German-English
school will probably move from its
present location after the next school
year. The school will open in its pres
ent location next Monday.

DR.. KRAEMER MENTIONED
FOR BOARD OF WORKS.
Democrats May Put Up Real Estate Man
to Oppose Commissioner Eggers, Who
Is Expected to Run Again.

At the end of this year the term of
Board of Works Commissioner Angus
tus r. Eggers will expire, and from a
Republican standpoint, as far as can
be learned now, he will probably make
the race for election again. The Demo-
Gratis have been looking about for a
man to oppose him. Thus far the senti-
ment seems to be in favor of DR..
Charles F. Kraemer, who ran Congress-
man r. Wayne Parker a tight race for
the lower Federal House at the last
election. His candidacy is not quite
settled as yet. but it is expected that
in a short time things will have shaped
themselves so that the candidate deter
mined upon will announce himself to
the public and that DR.. Kraemer will
be the man.
This race will nave an important
place in the local campaign, because
if the Democrats win they will nave
a majority, and If the Republicans are
successful they will retain their mar
gin of one vote in the deliberations OF
the body.
Dr.. Kraemer is a ~well-known real es-
tate men in this city. That he Is a
good campaigner was evidenced in the
last campaign against Congressman
Parker, when he toured this Congress
sional district in IN automobile.

Several years & he made his farewell
at a meeting of the State Bar Associa-

a dinner at the Wa1dorf-Astoria in New

of lawyers was present. Justice Dtxons
address on that occasion was one of the
finest he ever delivered.
Mr.. Parker was n man OF remarkably
commanding presence and his whole car

JUDGE HOWELL IN COURT,

at Her House-she and Mamie
Get Vacations.

Albert Haynes, of II Baldwin street,
Bloomfield, reported at the Third Pre-
cinct police station, about 1880 o'clock
this morning that he had been robbed
of a gold watch and chain at a house
at Al Monroe street.
When the police inspected the place
they found that Mrs. Catherine Ray,
who has a very unenviable police
record, was the proprietress, and that
a companion was Mamie Walsh, IS
years old, Of Is Summit street. Both
were drunk and lying on the front
stoop.
This morning the two women were
introduced to Judge Howell in the
Third Precinct Court, and he gave Mrs.
Ray a vacation at the Caldwell peni-
tertiary for ninety days. Mamie will
rusticate at the House of the Good
Shepherd until she learns to become
more careful in what she drinks.
Mrs. Ray exercised her lungs by
telling the judge what she thought Of
his kindness, and then sang Aud Lang
Syne'' as she was taken to her cell.
Judge Howell, you are a lovely
man, nit" remarked Mamie.

No Fire Escapes and Doors Locked, but
1Jewelry Is Gone, Occupant
Discovers.

The home of Mrs. Helen Lucas. 10
Littleton avenue. was entered some
time yesterday afternoon and an open
face gold watch, a pair of diamond cum
buttons and a signet stickpin were
stolen from one of the bedrooms. The
Lucas family occupies the third floor.
Mrs. Lucas told the police Of The Fifth
Precinct station that she went out In
the afternoon, locking the front and
rear doors. On her return she claims
both doors were still locked aud the
rear door bolted.
There are no fire escapes to the house
and the police are in a quandary to
know just how anyone could get in the
place. Mrs. Lucas does all her shop
ping downtown and patronizes no ped
dlers.
The watch was purchased in New
York and she has been advised to go
there and get the number of the time
piece and then give it to the police.
