periences. l am we'll aware that my

SELL TICKETS
FOR EXCURSION
8aptists Gsing Up the Hud-
son July a.

There seems to be a disposition on
the part of some to delay the pur-
chase OF tickets for the Baptist e
cursion up the Hudson river until
the morning of the sail, Monday, July
"a. 1t is almost certain that many
who do this will be disappointed, who
will go to the steamboat dock that
morning only to find that all the tick
cts have been sold.
An excursion by water Is different
from n by train, so far as this one
thing is concerned at least. If more
come to the station than are expect
ed, either more cars may be added to
the train or more sections of the
train may be run. Thus an eXcur-
sion across the country may accom-
modate an unlimited number, and II
Is quite safe to wait until the morn
ing of the excursion. But n by
water is necessarily limited, for
there Is but one boat, and Its capac-
ity is limited by law. Moreover, in
order that all who go may enjoy the
trip up the Hudson in comfort, the is
sue of tickets for the Baptist excur-
sion has been limited to 600 less than
tHt ICSd1 llCtloSd GdPhCllg Vi llc
Sirius" When the 1900 tickets
have been sold, there will be no more
forthcoming.
Everything points to q large ad-
vance sale OF these tickets. Already
two weeks ahead of the date, some
400 have been disposed of. although
they have been on the market but a
week. In addition to this, between
coo and 700 tickets have been al
lotted to the cooperating schools at
South AmbOy, Tottenville and Metu-
chen, which by so much reduces the
number available in Perth Amboy. If
n intends going, then tickets
should be secured without delay.
While any member of the Baptist
Sunday schools of this city, South
Amboy, Tottenville and Metuchen,
can provide the tickets, for the con-
venience of the public, the tickets
have been placed on sale at Barnekov
& PETE, 335 State street; w. r. Nc
Greedy, 1856 Smith street, and George
T~herkelson, 292 High street.

PUBLIC OPINION
VENING NEWS

EDITOR EVENING VIEWS;
We, property owners, ask you this
| favor to please put these lines In
your paper, which we all read and
support:
We, property owners and citizens
of the North Amboy section of this
city, ask the public for their opin-
ion whether the property owners
and citizens have any rights In this
country or not? Is 1t right to close
up the street, upon which are our
little homes, which VIC came into pos
session of with great labor, which
street Is the only place where the
children play and to try to close up
our properties entirely? We would
like to ask the Board of Aldermen of
this city why don't they tell us hat
before election that they are going
to close up our street and build coal
yards and factories. To show the
public the fact there is n instance
of the New Jersey Terra Gotta
Works. Catherine street has been
given away to the New Jersey Terra
Gotta works by our noble Mr.. Ste
phen Shultz, the alderman, who was
given hat position by the foreigners,
because we had great faith in him, as
he was u cOuntryman. DO ne
helped to close up Catherine street.
Now We have put a new alderman
In, not our countryman, expecting a
little more justice from him. We,
property owners of this section, have
heard that the city officials are just
about to give Huntington street,
which Is supposed to cross the Cen
trail railroad for a coal yard. This
street Is connected with Catherine
street and one end of 1t is closed up
by the factory and the other will De
closed by a coal yard. So l ask the
public what they would do If any
thing like this should happen to their
properties. We, Polish voters of
North Amboy, are good enough be-
fore election, but now we will see,
gentlemen, II the Board of Aldermen
will sell the street to one individual
on next Friday night or not. Now
this party wants to build a coal yard,
why don't they build n IN their
own property or buy a piece
where alse instead of blocging up the
street.
Yours truly,
Property Owners Of Catherine and
Huntington streets Of this City.

ELKS CONVENE
AT THE SHORE
Thousands Pour in From
All Parts OF Country.

Atlantic City, N. j., July 11.-Thou-
sands of Elks are here for the annual
reunion of the antlered brotherhood.
The grand lodge met on the Steel
pier, and the exalted ruler, Harry
Bacharach, Atlantic City lodge, made
the principal address of welcome.
Governor Wilson was not present.
The governor declined at the eleventh
hour In order that he might go to
great Elks' chorus of Columbus, o.,
will sing for the convention.
Nearly every prominent hotel Is a
headquarters for somewhere. Elks'
flags fly everywhere. The whole re-
sort is swathed in Elkdom's purple.
Rival candidates have thrown wide
their hospitality at the Hotel Strand,
headquarters of the grand lodge.
Charles A. Rasbury of Dallas, the
Texan candidate for grand exalted
ruler, who says he will be elected by
the rank and file Of the order over
Colonel John P. Sullivan of New Or
leans, the administrator candidate,
and Arthur G. Moreland Of New York,
was the first to open his boosting bu-
reau.
Sullivan, however, feels he Is going
to win the greatest honor in the gift
Of Elkdom, and the Moreland men are
expected to throw their support to
Rasbury If the New Yorker sees he
cannot land the prize.
Ali Of the former greats appear to
be in league against the Hermann
administration, which is backing Sui
Ivan. Arthur T. Jacobs, past district
deputy, of Haverhill, Miss, and Past
District Deputy Arthur w. Hatch of
Everett, Mass, have Joined the Tex
ans hackers. Past District Deputy
Gilbert W. Jones Of Wilmington, Del.
is also for him.
Were going to win this fight, with
the rank and file of the order standing
with u.s." exclaimed T. J. Darling,
postmaster Of Temple, Tex, who Is
running the Rasbury machines. "We
are against executive domination
against the retiring administration die
tating its successor"
In his annual report the grand exalt-
ed ruler, August Hermann Of Cincin-
natl, head Of the national baseball
commission, will announce the estab-
lishment of %forty-one new lodges dur
ing the last year and the expenditure
Of nearly half a million dollars In
quietly bestowed charities. The growth
Of the order has been 28,3S9, which is
slightly In excess Of the average.

COLLEGE FARM
HAS A BLAZE
Stallion Stables Destroyed
$4,000 Damage.
spec,al To the EVENING NEWS.

SPCNtAt ~ We IL ' VI " ~
New Brunswick. July 11:-Ftre
destroyed the stallion stables, two
other outbuildings, two silos, and
several hundred breeders at the New
Jersey Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton, otherwise known as college
Farm" at 1 o'clock this morning.
The blaze started in the stations
stable but did $4,000 damage be-
fore put under control by the local
1remen.
Prof. H. r. Lewis discovered the
blaze and telephoned to the local po-
lice station, where Sergeant Clinton
responded with an alarm from Box
%. This brought out two fire COM
panies, but when they arrived on the
scene, another alarm was rung In
and two other steamers responded.
The flremen ran the engines along
side the beautiful lake situated near
the burning buildings, and Don put
the fire under control. The stations
pavilion, for exhibition purposes, and
the farmers home, both nearby
buildings, were saved.
Prof, F. C. Minkler, one of the sta
tons most popular professors, was
overcome and revived by DR.. Howard
G. voorhees,. Mrs. E. B. voorhees,,
widow of the late director of the sta
ton, was in the northern section of
the city when the blaze was discov-
cred. and tainted when told the news.
Her daughters art studio burned at
the farm only recently.
The loss reached the high total,
owing to the valuable fodder stored
in the silos. The live stock was
saved with the exception of n pig
and the little chicks IN the breeders.

RICHARD DEGCE
CUT BY GLASS

Richard Degge, Of High and JEFF
ferson streets, employed as cigar
clerk at Laurer's drug store, seri-
ously cut the middle finger Of his
left hand on a soda glass last night,
while engaged in serving the drink
at the store. DR.. Max Greenwald was
called and found the t~reacherous
glass had partly severed the finger
above the first knuckle. Mr.. Degge
is suffering intense pain today and
was unable to report for work.
Several weeks ago a like accident
occurred. Broken glass became i'm
bedded in his left hand and, with the
soda solution, caused considerable
annoyance. Just how the accident
happened last night Is not known,
but 1t is thought the glass was weak
and crushed under the mans hand
as he rinsed the receptacle pre-
p%aratory to filling an order.

SYRIANS ARE
GIVEN HEARING
One OF Fighting Crowd Is
Fined S25.

Five Syrian peanut vendors who
with others became engaged in a
fierce fight at Fayette and State
streets yesterday afternoon were ar
raigned before Recorder Henry w.
Kehoe asst night. Nick Toas, a tall
youth, who claimed to be t~wenty-one
years old, was fined $25.

against John Kaprolas, Dan Kapro-
as, Peter Tolas and Thomas Tolas.
They We're remanded and warned

grew so warm that sticks and stones
were used. Patrolmen Tonnesen and

TO START ON
SMITH STREET
Repaving This Week Hobart
and King Completed.

Work of repaving Smith street be-
tween State and High streets will be
started the latter part of this week
according to City Surveyor Samuel
j. Mason. The Hastings Pavement
Company, the contractors, are max
Ing preparations for commencing the
work. They have completed asphalt
block pavements on Hobart and King
streets, which are to be opened to
the public tomorrow and today be-
gan the concrete work Oh the new
Fayette street pavement. The COM
pany had men at work on Lewis
street yesterday and this morning.
About $3.50 o'clock the compapy's
big concrete mixer was taken from
Lewis street to the Fayette street
job.
1t seems gratifying to many that
Smith street is to be repaired. The
present asphalt pavement between
State street and High street has been
a disgrace to the city. 1t is full of
holes, caused by the pavement sink
ing and excavations.
City Surveyor Mason visited Lewis
street this morning and looked over
the work done there by the Hastings
concern. The property owners want
the company to make a good Job of
it. They want the concrete wherever
deficient in quality or quantity torn
up and reIaid in full in accordance
with specifications. 1t was learned
today that Mr.. Winlac, who acted as
superintendent of construction on the
Lewis street job, who the property
owners claim treated them unfairly,
in order to better his standing with
the company, will no longer upper
wise the work on local pavements.
Lewis street property owners object
him.

BOATFULL OF SALT CAME
NEAR SINKING IN CANAL

Trenton, July 11:-A boat passing
through the canal late yesterday
afternoon sprung aleak when it
reached the aqueduct near Green
wood enu and came near sinking
to the bottom.
The boat, which was filled with
salt, was on it's way from Borden
town to New Brunswick. AS 1t near
ed Greenwood avenue n Of the
deckhands discovered a leak. When
1t reached the aqueduct over the
railroad tracks 1t started to sink and
was prevented from going any fur
Their by the steel work at the bottom
of the canal. The canal at that point
is not as deep as In other places.
Three pumps were set in opera
ton and six men were kept busy
working them for more than an hour
before the vessel was raised enough
to proceed. Later the leak was re-
paired and the boat continued on to
New Brunswick. The vessel was
drawn by six mules.
