WEAPONS ARE
PROHIBITED IN
new PLACARDS
Notices in Four Languages Post
ed Ia Every Factory, Saloon,
Dance Hall, Police Station.
THROUGHOUT COUNTY
COnstahIss Are Distributing and
lacking Up the Cards, BY
Jndge BOOraem'S Order.

An innovation which is welcomed
by all who employ or have dealings
with the ordinary class of foreigners,
Is the Issuing of placards, stating the
penalty provided for carrying con
cealed weapons. They have been
printed at the instance of Judge
Booraem, who has distributed them
among five constables. The latter
are posting copies of the notices, ac-
cording to orders, in every factory
salooB~and dance hall In the county.
People usually object to having
notices OF any sort tackled up In their
establishments but they seem to feel
otherwise in regard to these cards,
realizing the benefits that they may
accomplish. -
Each card bears the notice print
ed in four languages, English, Ital-
ian, Slavish and Hungarian. Con-
stable John G. Brown was recalled
from a vacation trip by letter from
the judge, instructing him to distrib-
ute these notices. Browns territory
embraces this city, Woodbridge, Sc
warren, Port Reading and Roosevelt.
The other constables busy on this
task are Blaine, Gordon, Buckalew
and McCabe.
The notices read as follows:
The laws of the State of New Jer-
sey provide that any person who shall
carry any revolver or other deadly,
offensive or dangerous weapon or fire-
arm, or any stiletto, dagger or razor
or knife with blade Ave inches in
length or over, con cealed in or about
his clothes or person, shall be guilty
of misdemeanor, and upon convic-
tion thereof shall be punishable by a
fine not exceeding two hundred dol
lars or imprisonment not exceeding
two years or both. The law provides,
however, that persons having a writ
ten permit to carry sucl weapons
from the Mayor of the City or Bor-
ough, or from the Township Commit
tee of any Twnship shall not be sub
ject to the penalties of this are. The
| Judge of the Middlesex County Court
has announced that all persons found
guilty of carrying concealed weapons
In this county will be sentenced to
imprisonment, and all persons are,
therefore, warned to refrain from
carrying concealed on their persons
pistols, knives, blackjacks or other
weapons"

liar thing near Gutenberg, where
his parents live.

TO CONTINUE
OUR SAvIOUR'S
DAY SCHOOL
Proposed Closing is Not Carried
Out and a New Teacher
is Sought.
SUCCESSFUL YEAR EXPECTED

It was decided at a meeting held
in Our Saviour's Danish Lutheran
church, last night, to continue the
parochial school, in connection with
the church.
Rev. 'Villads B. Skov, pastor of
the church, was named as a commit
tee to endeavor to secure Miss
Emma Peterson, of Iowa, who. was
the teacher at st. Stephens Danish
Lutheran parochial school, in Broad
street, last year. 1t was decided to
open the school on Tuesday, Septem-
Der 8, the day after Labor Day.
Last year this school had on an
average of thirty-five pupils. There
is a rumor of some talk of discontin-
uing st. Stephens parochial school,
but as yet no definite action has been
taken
The matter will probably be taken
up after the arrival Of Rev ]. F.
Christensen, pastor of the church,
next week. In the event Of that
school closing, 1t is thought that
many of the former pupils will go
to Our Saviour's school.

'she called me bullfrog and then

said twenty-year-old John Adamsky,

to her.
1t was brought out that they were

when John passed the girl, who was
with several friends, and she called
him "bullfrog," it got his goat"

Mention Weigel for Congress.


New Brunswick, Aug. 25:-Who
will be the democratic nominee for
congress in the third district2 1t is
easier to ask that question than to
answer 1t. Heretofore George Vieh-
mann's name has been more conspic-
uous than any other. The ex-mayor
of New Brunswick doesn't appear to
be stirring himself very much in the
matter. He has made no declara-
, tion, one way or the other.
Recently talk has centered more
and more on Frederick Weigel, ex-
city attorney Mr.. Weigel admitted
today he had heard of the gossip.
Several men had spoken to him
about it, but he has made no declar-
ation Like Mr. Viehmann, he is In
the hands of his friends.
This is about the time of year
when Dr.. Frank L. Hindle is regu-
larly nominated for something. The
Brobdignagian dentist has lots of
friends who think he has dignity
enough for any job. The doctor
simply smiles and goes ahead at
tending to his own business This
time he is being informed that he
ought to run for alderman in the
fourth ward. He isn't looking for
the job, and he won't neglect his
practice to get it. So far, it's all
talk.
Lawyer Stephen F. Somogyi, who
has been prominently mentioned as
a candidate for recorder on the re-
publican ticket, announced this morn
ing that he had withdrawn in favor
of Mr. Pickersgill and that he had
signed a petition for the latter's nom
ination. This has caused somewhat
of a sensation in the G. o. P. camp.
