$I25 SECURED
BY PICKPOCKET
s. EIkin, of 279 Smith
Street Is Victim Of Thief.


1t Will probably be some time be-
fore s. Elkin, of 279 Smith street,
attends public ball again with $t25
In his pocket. Not because he
wouldn't have the s125, but because
in losing such sum at the twelfth
annual masquerade ball of the Orig
inal Hebrew Ladies' Benevolent So
eiety in the Auditorium Sunday night
he has learned useful lesson, for
the chances of his recovering his lost
property are slim.
With many others Mr.. Elkin. who
is proprietor of a dry goods store at
the foregoing named address, tripped
the light fantastic until shortly at
ter midnight, when he repaired to
the refreshments room. When 1t
came his turn to treat he brought his
wallet from the inside breast pocket
of his coat to pay for the round. Az
terwards he replaced the pocket
book, leaving his coat unbuttoned.
A miscellaneous throng stood around
while Mr.. Elkin was paying his bill
and In doing SO he flashed his money,
which was composed mainly OF $40
bills.
A few minutes after settling for
the round, Mr.. E1kin put his hand to
his inside breast pocket and found,
to his horror, that his wallet was
gone. He Immediately made his loss
known and offered s25 for the re-
turn g. : he g oeRHay. Patrolman Quinn
got on the trail of the loss ssnt was
unable to get a olew as to where II
had gone. Mr.. Elkin wanted every
one In the building searched but the
officer said that this was impossible.
Finally after much parleying the
search for the money was given UP
and Mr.. Elkin left for home, sadder
but witer man. With the money II
the waset taken were two checks,
payment on which has been stopped
They wlce for sa and $40, respec-
lively.

pairing store was discovered shortly
after o'clock yesterday by Paul La

New Brunswick avenue. Consider
able damage was effected in the shop
and to a stock Of rubhers and shoes

1911 ARRIVES
AMID TUMULT I
Jelly Crowds Thronq the
Hotels and Cafes.

While number of Perth Amboy
people saw the New Year ushered In
on New York's Great White Way"
the major portion contributed toward
the general hilarity which prevailed
in this city with the welcoming Of
1911. The streets were thronged in
the early part with gay crowd, but
as the evening waned, the crowds
thinned, going to local places, where
bright lights and music prevailed. At
midnight the air was filed with the
Shrieks Of whistles on land and wa
ter. Bells tolIed and the popping of
revolvers added to the general dis
turbance, which to one not familiar
with the occasion for the general
hurrah, would have conveyed the i'm
preston thta pandemonium had
broken loose.
Three local places inaugurated
New Years night entertainment fea-
lures for the benefit of those who
wiEhed to see 1911 come In, These
places we're: The Ernst House, the
Packer House and Otto's Cafe.
At the Ernst House entertainment
was given to a large throng. Or
chestral music helped to while away
d gay evening, and refreshments
were served gratis. The crowd was
Jolly one and Mr.. and Mrs. ]. F.
Ernst proved themselves to be able
hosts.
At Otto's gay throng gathered
some time before midnight and
passed the time away merrily until
the mystic hour, when the lights
went out for an instant and tre-
mendous blast went forth from the
horns with which every one had been
provided by the management. An
orchestra supplied music during the
evening.
At the Packer House an orehes-
ira and vocalists entertained a Jolly
throng until the new year arrived.
Among those present were a number
OF automo obiIe parties from points In
this part OF the state.
The usual New Years night dances
were held In Washington Hall and
the Auditorium, which were well
attended
After the midnight hour the ma
jority of the people went to their
homes, although a certain portion of
the merry-makNrs 10th to follow such
q course, paraded the streets until
nearly daybreak. A band led a large
crowd through the streets for q
time. About o'clock fire on Fay
