Cough Remedy IS
 Both Agreeable and Effective

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has no superior for coughs, colds and croup. and the fact that il is pleasant 10 take and contains nothing in any way injurious has made it a fayorIte with mothers. Mr W. .. Pelham. a merchant of kirksville, Iowa. says:
 For more than twenty years Cham berlain's Cough Remedy has been my leading remedy for all throat troubles. IL Is especially successful in cases of croup. Children like it and my GUS toners who have used il will not take any other. For sale by J. T. Sanders.

 This is good news to Pat and his friends from financial point of view, hut all will regret excee 1ingly that this promising young ball tosser will not play with the Forrest City team this season. Pat has all the require ments to make fast pitcher. and he is the idol of the Forrest City fans and roOters, all of whom will join us in wishing him the greatest success in his chosen avocation. and the hope that he will have time to pitch few games on the local diamond during the season.
 Let's have a good ball team, and let's back them with enough money to insure a season of fine sport.

Guy Saint. the speedy boy twirler who played in the City League of Memphis last year. and with Forrest City.s crack team for six weeks. has been signed by Manager Babb of the Memphii. He is expected by his friends everywhere to make good as a professional. Although still in his teens. Saint is whaling big young ster. but doesn't lack agility. He is over six feet tall and weighs in the neighborhood of about 175 pounds.
 \ strange thing about Saint is that he has been playing the game only short time. Last year was practically his first experience with regularly organized team, although he pitched three games the season before with the Dixie Boys. With the News Scimitars. he made an excellent rec ord, playing for them on Sundays dur ing the entire season. For six weeks he was with Forrest City, playing star ball, and made many friends here who will be glad to learn of his advance ment and wish him great success.
 Our own pet, Pat Folbre, has signed with the Hot Springs team, for the season of l9o7, and recently received letter from MT. A. C. Riggs, manager. from which we print the following ex- tract:
 Hot Springs. Ark, Feb. 26 1907. Dear Friend Folbre:
 Your letter received today, and in reply will say that the boys will re- port about March 20. Will keep in touch with you and also have trans portation there for you. Kindly mai me a photo of yourself as l have one Of nearly all the boys We want to give all the boys good write Up and keep them before the public.

BOTH WRECKED
Special to tie EVENING NEWS:

Special to the EVENING NEWS:
SOUTH AMBOY, July S:-Several
persons were injured and severely
shaken up in collision Of two troll
ley cars near Christ cemetery be-
tween and 10 O'Clock last night.
Both cars we're badly smashed.
A car loaded with trolley poles
was on the siding near the cemetery,
when the brake became loosened.
The loaded car ran onto the main
track and went down rapidly until it
struck the up grade, when it gradu-
ally slowed up, stopped and started
backward.
A passenger car, with a number
of passengers aboard, was short
distance beyond the borough line. At
the corner below the cemetery, the
car with the poles aboard crashed
heavily into the one with passengers,
which was in charge of Motorman Po-
land and Conductor Ryan.
George Jacobs, an employe of the
company, whose home is in South
Amboy, had an arm broken and
George M. Church and others were
bruised and shaken up by the shock.
The wreck was finally cleared
away and the people reached their
destination, the injured receiving
medical attention.

Some Firemen will Be on Duty
at Houses All Day
Tomorrow.
NO PISTOLS ON STREETS
Sale Of Fireworks Not as Large
as last Year Many
Novelties.

All of the policemen have receiv-
ed strict orders from Chief of Police
Burke to enforce the rules tomorrow.
No person will be permitted to shoot
weapons whose discharge goes
through a barrel, whether they are
toy pistols or otherwise. Any per-
son caught shooting blank cartridges
on the streets will be arrested, ac-
cording to the orders.
The firemen will also be on the
alert tomorrow. Chief Engineef
Eugene Mullen. of the fire depart
ment, said this morning that men
would be kept at all of the fire houses
all day long and will be ready to re-
spond to any alarms the instant the
bell rings. By taking this care the
danger of buildings being destroyed
by fire will be materially diminished.
The Sale of Fireworks.
Local stores dealing in fireworks
report a fairly good sale, although it
is not as large yet as last year.
Many Improvements in the manu-
facture of novelties have been made
tn1S year, and there are now SparkletS
which are now made from metal
stick instead of wooden stick. The
largest portion of skyrockets are
made with three sticks so that they
need not be planted in the ground.
A new pattern of miniature can
non, which shoots with the pulling of
string, is just out and selling fast.
Pinwheels, Roman candles. flower
pots, large and small firecrackers, to-
gether with top cap pistols, are in
similar designs as last years make.
Twenty-Five and thirty-two calibre
revolvers seem to be selling faster
this year than ever before, and some
local dealers have already run out of
their supply. Local Chinese laundry
men are exhibiting their usual display
of Chinese crackers.

TOO LATE TO
VOTE IN FALL.
Aspiring Citizens in MiddIesex
Get Applications Before the
Court After Time Limit
MUST BE THREE MONTHS.

NEW BRUNSWICK, July 3:-Be-
cause mistake was made as to the
last day on which final applications
for citizenship could be made in
court, many aspirants to membership
In Uncle Sans household who had
expected to vote next November will
be disappointed. Several big patches
of applications were handed into
court yesterday, but it developed that
yesterday was the final day on which
they might be presented legally. The
new law requires that three months
shall elapse between the filing of an
application and it's being acted on,
and that there shall then be a
months interval between the grant
ing of the decree and the issuance of
the certificate. Applications filed
Monday could not be granted until
the day before election this year,
which is too close to that day, the
courts think, to create a lot Of new
citizens.

MAY MARCH WITH NIB. LODGE

1t was decided at last nights meet
ing that Perth Amboy Lodge, No.
784, B. P. o. Elks, will not attend
the annual convention at Philadelphia
in body.
Such plans had been contemplated
for some time, because of the compar-
ative proximity of Philadelphia, but
1t has been concluded that not a
sufficient number could go to make a
very large representation.
A number of members will attend
the convention, however, and they
may possibly accompany the New
Brunswick lodge. The Elks from
the county seat will wear white uni
forms and they have novel features
under way.
