DISCUSS BEST HOUR
FOR BAPTIST S. S

The officers and teachers of the
First Baptist Sunday school held q
business and social meeting last
evening at the home of the pastor.
Superintendent w. w. Davis presid-
ed. A number Of things came up
for discussion, looking to the in
creased welfare of the school.
One of the most important mat
tiers was the consideration of the
best hour for holding the school ses-
sions. While a large number have
felt that the hour either Immediately
preceding or succeeding the morning
service has many advantages over
the afternoon hour, nevertheless the
trials which have been made during
the past two years In this direction
have not proved successful. 1t was
therefore decided that commencing
with next Sunday the hour would be
at 2:30 in the afternoon, as hereto
fore. which hour seems to accommo-
date the largest number of those who
regularly attend.

PLAN.To FORM PRIVATE
PRIMARY ClASSIN CITY

In response to a demand on the
part of some parents for a private
primary school in this city, Miss
Martha A. Waite has determined to
start such a class If sufficient pupils
can be found to make it successful.
At least ten are needed, while more
may be accommodated.
Quarters for the class have been
secured at 1873 Gordon street, at the
home of Mrs. William H. Bawden,
within a few doors of State street.
This is within easy reach of that sec
ton of the city where such pupils
are likely to reside. Miss Waite will
be at this address Thursday, Friday
and Saturday mornings of this week,
after 10 o'clock, for consultation
with parents. Miss Waite will also
call in response to letters.
For more than ten years Miss
Waite has taught in the public
schools of New York, and has the
highest recommendations from the
principals under whom she has
worked. The matter of forming the
class here should be decided at
once, that the work may be COM
menced at an early date.

Peculiar and laughabl5 instances
oftimes occur when applicants for
marriage licenses appear unprepared
for cross-examination at the city
clerks office. For instance, a wo-
man appeared recently with a wit
ness, answering the questions salts
factorily until the inquiry as to
whether or not she had been welded
before. Yes, she had, twice. Were
her former husbands living or dead?
One of each. Had she been di-
vorced? Oh, no.
City Clerk LaRoe held his pen
poised in the air and requested the
information as to how the marriage
bond had been dissolved.
"Oh," said the woman, my sec
ond husband lives in Europe, and a
few days G he sen me a letter tell
ing me he doesn't care If l marry
again"
And a few days later she returned
with a lawyer to attempt to persuade
the city clerk to grant the license.
But he failed to coincide with the
attorneys views and the woman is
still without a husband on this side
of the world.
Tuesday an application for a IL
cense was made by a would-be bride
Of K~easbey. The law compels, how
ever, that licenses must be issued in
townships of cities where the bride
lives, If a resident of New Jersey.
She was referred to the Woodbridge
authorities.

TROUBLE OVER
The LICENSE
Proctor's Pay Another 500
Under Protest Send Let
ter 10 the Mayor.
SAY THREAT WAS MADE

AS the result of an order from
Mayor Bollschweiler to pay a license
fee OF 5000 or close the local Proctor
theatre, action may be taken In the
courts to o from the city half
of the amount. Following a letter
from the mayor to pay the entire fee
provided in the license ordinance for
houses seating over 1000, Manager
Harry Brunette yesterday sent tue
following letter to the mayor:
Perth Amboy, N. j.,
Sept. 20, 1910.
ITO His Honor. the Mayor
Dear Sir:
According to your demands anu
under threat to close up Proctor's
theatre unless a license Of two hun
bred dollars $4,000 is paid before 1
P. M. today, l herewith hand YOU
the amount Of two hundred dollars
(s200) under protest. pending flu
ture action which we may un:er-
take.
Respectfully,
PROCTOR q SANDERSON,
"Per H. Brunette. Mgr"
The controversy arose over a dis
agreement or misunderstanding when
the license was applied for. Accord
ing to the ordinance, houses of 200
or less capacity are required to pay
a license fee of but 500. Over that
capacity to within a certain restric-
ton. the fee Is 5000. The local
house seats about 1900 persons and
as the fee paid was but 800, the
mayor a few days ago wrote the
a letter announcing his in
tention to have the gallery closed,
making the seating capacity of the
house then about 500.
Yesterday morning Superintendent
John Bullwinkle paid an extra $500
to City Clerk LaRoe with the forego-
ing letter. AS a result, Proctor &
Sanderson are likely to start a civil
action to 0 half the amount. At
the theatre today the matter would
not be discussed.
