to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
South Amboy, Aug. 26:-At the
close Of the meeting of Protection
Engine Company last night. the pre-
sentation of gold badges to former
Fire Chiefs Michael Welsh. P. F. Ke-
nah and James Carbury, the presi-
dent of the company, were made
Robert Seagraves, in a very appro-
pirate speech, presented the badges.
Responses we're made by each of the
former chiefs, thanking the members
of the company for the mark of es-
TEEN, as shown by the company in
this presentation.
The correspondent Of the NEWS
being discovered in the room, was
called ON for a speech. In a few re-
marks he made he said this was the
last of his expectation to make a
speech. He came to make a report
of the presentation, but that he
thought much was due the fire lad
dies for their efficient services and
the promptness of their rendition in
the time of fire, and. that a word of
commentator was due them for
their fine soldiery appearance on
their leaving the city on former oc-
c~asions to join in the parades that
have taken place, and as they had
received an invitation to take part In
the 1remen's parade at New Bruins
wick In October, he was sorry they
were unable to attend, as the Pro-
lection Engine Company was a credit
to South Amboy and would be to any
city In which they were located and
that while the squire had never had
a fire and hoped he never would, yet
IL he were SO unfortunate, he want
ed the Protection boys to get there
as quick as possible, which he knew
would be done, as he had seen the
secretary, John Sutliff, during one of
the hottest days in summer setting
a pace that would have put to
shame many Of the horses in South
Amboy. At the close of the meeting
all repaired to Welsh's hall, where a
fine clam bake was awaiting and to
say the squire did not do Justice to
the good things would not be stating
things correctly, and along with the
we'll wishes, the squire is hoping
that Protection Company may have
many returns of last nights enjoy

OLD HAT BEHIND
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
Woodbridge, Aug. 26:-The
clothing store of c. Christensen &
Bro, in Main street, was entered on
Wednesday night and many valuable
suits were taken, as told in the
EVENING NEWS yesterday. En-
was gained through a window
in the side alley. 1t is thought the
person must have been small, as he
had to climb through shelves in or
derto get into the building. Others
lere were let in through a back win
dow.
AS far as can be stated at present
fifteen new fall suits were taken,
neckties, handkerchiefs, socks and
two trunks, which the things must
have been packed in. One suit was
taken out of the window, which was
found on a counter in the store. The
money drawer had been tempered
with but no money was taken.
The only clue that Mr. Christensen
has Is an old hat, which was left be-
hind. Mr.. Christensen telephoned
to the neighboring towns this morn-
ing but no one has been caught.

CASES BEFORE
THE RECORDER
One Man 10 Fined and An
other Sent to jail In
South Amboy.
0'BRlEN CASE AGAIN

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
South Amboy, Aug. 26:-Joseph
Botter was arraigned before Justice
Birmingham on complaint of his
wife, Mary Better. This happy or
unhappy couple live In Augusta
street. Yesterday Joseph filled up
with fighting beer, or something
else, and the result was he felt that
Mrs. Better needed chastising. He
was about to infiict punishment
when Botter's sister interfered to
protect her sister-in-law, with the
result that she was knocked down.
Some one called the chief of police.
who lives but a short distance away
He placed Joseph in the cooler to
mediate and sober up. The Justice
after hearing the evidence in the
case, imposed a fine Of SO on Jo-
seph.
On complaint of Martin Shuler,
William O'Brien was compelled to
make another trip over to the coun-
ty seat Monday. O'Brien apparent
ly has got the habit of getting out of
jail and very quickly getting In
again. AS his time apparently is
lessened on account of good beha-
ylor while in jail, he must behave
better in Jail than he does when out,
and no doubt 1t would be better to
keep him these until he knows how
to behave when out as well as he
does when in Jail, For some time
past he has been keeping the road
warm by travel, as 1t were, between
South Amboy and New Brunswick.
The same old charge is again
made by his brother-in-law, of disor-
derby conduct. Justice Birmingham
sentenced him to sixty days In the
county jail. O'Brien had a ticket
for out of town, but seemingly he
wanted to clean up things around
Martins before leaving town, which
resulted in sixty days doing time.
