CRAP GAME COSTLY
Fines Melted Out to Orange Players,
Who Included the Son of Alder
man Cheetham.

There was an interesting trial over a
crap game in the Orange Police Court
this morning before Judge Bray, In which
Edward Cheetham. jr.. the son of Alder
man ,Cheetham. of the Common Council.
was a principal. 1t cost Mr.. Cheetham
50 for his sons hand in the game. All
the familiar passages of the game. in
Guiding fading passing etc, were
were brought out, and the judge seemed
to be quite conversant with the terms.
All the players started to tell on each
other. and the past records of several of
the Youths cost them a fine of $40.
The PLAYERS, Nick Long, Tony Leva,
Frank Christmas, John Baumeller, Elmer
Fisher and Cheetham, were arrested a
week ago Yesterday for playing the game
on Bell street. Complaints. it is said,
kept pouring into the police, and one clti-
zen told the officers that he would get
Sheriff SOmmer to make a raid. Police
man Giordano was sent out and the names
of the players were obtained. At the

HE DOTES ON PIANO
And Orange Candy Mans Love for Music
Saves Him $50 License Fee, with
Lawyers Assistance.

The merry strains of patent piano music
can be heard now in two Orange candy
stores. but for one dealer 1t has been an
expensive proposition. while for the other
II is cheap. And IL IS all on account or
the way two different lawyers looked at
the law.
one of the candy stores Is located just
below Centre street, on Man,, and the
other Just below Day street, on the main
t~horoughfare. The former was compelled
by the police to take out a license ana
pay $50 for it, and he acted. 1t Is sala'
on the advice Of a lawyer he consulted.
When the other dealer was approached ne
also sought advice from a lawyer aud
was told not to take out the license anu
he didn't 90
When the first dealer had to pay the 500
he thought of the other dealer a little way
up the street and is said to have recon-.
mended to the city officials that II mlght
be a. good plan to make his iilenu any
take out a license and lose a little OF ms
profits. A visit was made TO the other
store, but no application was made ac-
companied by the $50,
you will have to take out a license 70
play tina plano for your customers the
dealer was told.
"Well, I guess I can have a little amuse-
ment If so choose" is said to be the way
the reply ran. i've got just as much
right to have n pinno play Tor my par
ticular amusement here as any OF you ol-
ficials have in your home and I'm going
to do it."
And so the patent plano dispenses music
while the owner Is about the establishments
and will probably continue to play. IT'S sald,
though. that MS soon as that piano Is heard
nlaying while the BOSS is away there IS
going to be trouble. The owner holds that
he is seeking enjoyment by the use OF tne
piano and Just dotes on this kind or music.
Ii looks. however, as If he thinks his GUS
toners like piano music also.
