Young Mems Club Affair.
The bake held by the newly or
ganized Young Mems Club yesterday
afternoon at Union Grove will be re-
membered by those who attended for
some time to come, for 1t was one of
the most enjoyable affairs of its
kind ever held in this vicinity.
Out of about two hundred guests
that were at hand, many were in
clined to believe that it was a politi-
cal affair, and one held for the pur-
pose of boosting certain democratic
wouId-be candidates, but President
Thomas Brown, in his opening adj
dress, told the purpose of the af-
fair. He avoided all political refer
ences and surprised some of those
who had come there prepared for
political speeches. He very favor

Two Men With
Prison Records
Had Stripped the
Graft and Engine
Was Hidden in
a Shed.

Chief Burke this morning COM
nended the work of Detectives HUFF
and Long, who, during the past
week, captured two gangs of youth
full thieves. Yesterday the detect
ives, after working almost all of Sat
urday night, arrested Fred Slater,
alias 'Yamm er," thirty-five years
old, and Aaron Stricken, forty-one
years old, both ex-convicts, on a
charge of stealing boat from Red
Bank last Wednesday night.
Both men denied their guilt, but
the engine and other apparatus from
thte boat were found in shed in
the rear of Stricker's home yester-
day morning by the detectives. The
two prisoners were taken in an au-
tomobile to Red Bank yesterday af-
ternoon, by EIwood Minaguh and j.
B. Rue, both Monmouth county de-
tectiyes.
Chief Burke received the follow
ing telegram Saturday morning and
at once started Detectives HUFF and
Long on the case.
Converted cat boat Columbia, 10
feet inches long by feet 6inches;
painted white, brown copper bottom !;
curtains with celluloid window in
front and horsepower Palmer en-
gine, stolen from Red Bank August
6. H. M. Nevins, Prosecutor Of
Pleas, Red Bank"
The detectives soon learned that
boat had been picked up at the G..
Pardee dock, but as the description
of 1t did not answer that OF the stol-
en- boat they paid little attention to
1t at the time. At 4 O'Clock Satur-
day afternoon John, Fritzinger, of
the G. Pardee works, notified the po-
lice in regard to the boat and said
thaht two men at the plant had help
ed load an engine and other apparat-
us into a, wagon Thursday night.
Work on Clue.
Thinking this might prove a clue,
the detectives went to the plant and
took charge of the boat Saturday
night and took 1t to William Wal
ter's boat house for safe keeping.
The stolen boat was described as
having cabin, but as the boat found
at the dock had none, at first the de-
tectives did not think 1t was the one
missing. Later when they examined
the boat at Walters, they discovered
that there had been a cabin on the
boat, but that it had been cut off.
The two men at the plant, who
helped load an engine and other
things into wagon Thursday night
were questioned later and told the
detectives that the two visitors said
they were going to put the engine in
new boat of J. G. Rossi's. The
men who aided the two thieves, un-
consciously, were Joseph Clebak, the
yard foreman at the plant, and Mike
Fedor, a laborer.
From the description of the two
men, furnished by Clebak and Fedor,
Fluff and Long realized that they
had good clue and without delay
went to Liddle G Pfeiffer's stable
and sought information as to whom
had hired rigs Thursday night.
Armed with considerable proof, yes
terday morning the local detectives
arrested Stricken and Slater and
placed them in the lookup, although
both denied any knowledge of the
charge.
Men Identified.
Clebak and Fedor were sent for
and at once identified the prisoners
as the two men whom they had help

Atlantic City, Aug. 10:-Flaunting
their defiance of the law in face OF
confessedly Indifferent officials, the
cafe proprietors and saloonkeepers
ran wide open at this resort yester-
day without the least molestation By
the authorities.
To add to the wide openiness Of
the day, the amusement men fell
into line with the saloonkeepers and
two of the big ocean piers, hereto
fore closed tight on the Sabbath, ran
in full swing and catered to thoua-
ands of excursionists.
1t is believed that the action Of
the pier authorities is the opening
gun of battle to be made between
the amusement men and saloons,
which will add another interesting
phase to the fight presaged by the
admission Of the state commissioners
that they intend to recommend some
move to force absolute compliance
with the Sunday liquor laws in this
district.

of the young Turks and intends to
flee the country is being generally
credited in diplomatic and official
