A resolution authorizing the adver-

grand stand with seating capacity of

With the action of the Fairgrounds

by applying for writ of certiorari to
test the constitutionality of the play

John Moore, of 81 Christopher street,

day when court opened. This time the

was stealing stones from the yard of
one Michael Nugent, of 1O1 Christopher
street. Orange"
John and Michael, it appeared, have
long cherished hard feelings against
each other. Last summer, John, hav-
ing nothing else to do, secured a large
hollow iron ball, Weighing some
twenty pounds, and amused himself
by rolling it up and down the sidewalk
in front of Michaers house. The noise
was deafening, but Michael endured 1t
in silence. Today he told the court all
about it, but with frequent objections
from John, who. from long familiarity
with the court, has picked up a smat-
tering of law.
Didn't you have the nerve to tell
the judge about this year ago." he
queried, much to MichaePs discomfort,
as laugh went up.
Rlcnard moore, John'S brother, was
included in the charge, but when only
John responded to the call and Ricn-
ard was not to be found, John testi-
fled that Richard had lust got tired
of waiting and gone home" He will
be sent for and the case will be heard
Monday
Michael Nugent, who made the COM
plant, declared that John batted a
baseball into his yard as a pretext for
| jumping over the fence. Then, ac-
cording to Nugent, John lay in wait
with his baseball bat, in the mean
time tearing up paving and other
stones in Nugent's yard.

If you go to East Orange tomorrow
don't try to buy cigar, for that city
will be under the sway of the new
Sunday blue law.
Don't think of a drink and don't
write letters for you can't buy a stamp;
don't think of ice cream, for you can't
get it; don't attempt to buy your best
girl candy or flowers, for the places
will be under the watchful eye of the
police.
To sum it all up don't do anything
get out of town.
If you are real sick the druggist may
sell you medicine-but it will be safer
to be we'll. You can get a Sunday
paper but you can't buy a magazine
or a package Of chewing gum. The
milkman can deliver his milk and the
iceman can leave ice, but you can't
get shaved, and yet the trolley cars
will run through the city-the one
chance to escape-and East Orange, II
is expected, will be nearly akin to
Goldslniths Deserted Village"
Moreover. this new blue law is not
dead one, full preparations have been
made by the police to enforce it, and
ten men in blue will ride around the
city on bicycles in the rear of ice cream
wagons to make arrests if necessary.
They have been instructed to make
everything as blue as possible.
To beat the law will cost an offender
S25 for every violation, if found guilty
Should you be arrested carry $25, not
in pennies, and after being marked
down on the blotter. the police SER
geant on duty will accept this amount

And it lie' in a deep-a delicious

No soda, no ice cream, no kissing,

And the man with the ache can't

No laughing, no crying;
No talking, no signing;
No smoking, no walking;
No water, no rum.
