WEEK CARNIVAL
IS NOT LIKELY

There will not be week of carni-
val and celebration for State street,
beginning July 4, according to the
statement made by Thomas F. urke,
president of the State Street I'M
provement Association, this morn
ing. 1t is probable though, he con
tinued, that interesting features will
be exhibited on the street during the
nights of July and s, for the pur-
pose of attracting the crowds and
displaying the new white way" to
be erected by July 4.
The project to have week of fes-
tivities was launched at the last
meeting of the association, on Mon
day night, but met with disapproval
from a number of prominent mer-
chants along the street. The cost
for the celebration on the night of
the nations birthday will be in the
neighborhood of $1,000 and many
wise heads figured the outlay for five
nights of fun would be extravagant.
Superintendent Chamberlain, of
the Public Service Light Company,
reported to President Burke yester-
day that the extension work is pro-
crossing rapidly, despite the fact the
contract has not been signed.

MORE LIGHT IN
SMITH STREET
Merchants Will Havs white
Way" From State Street
WsstWard--A Lamps.
MEETINGS BEING HELD
Expect that illumination
Will be Ready fer CeIsbra-
tion on July 4th.

A majority of the most prominent
merchants along Smith street, from
State street westward, are preparing
to have white way" installed by
July Fourth. 1t is proposed to make
it similar to that on Smith street be-
tween State and High streets. A
committee of merchants is holding
conferences with representatives of
the Public Service Corporation and
in the course of a day or so they ex-
pect to have prices for installing
lamps and for light.
Merchants Enthusiastic.
The more prominent merchants,
beginning with S. M. Jacobson in
Scheuer's grocery store on the north
erly side and Jacob Kreielsheimer on
the southerly side and going west
ward toward Madison avenue, are en-
thusiastic about the idea and there
seems to be every indication that the
project will materialize this time. A
slight handicap has arisen through
the stand taken by few who cannot
see that white way" would benefit
them any and therefore refuse to con-
tribute toward it.
Extension of Present Line.
While independent of any other
system, the proposed new white
way" would virtually be an extern
sion of the present Smith street sys-
TEN, as when completed there would
be a continuous white way" from
High street across State to Madison
avenue or thereaboutS

OF
FAIRGROUNDS
Commission Will Ask Alder
men to Give $1,000.

Perth Amboy will have its first
public playground within the next
few weeks, according to the manner
in which matters are progressing at
this time. The Playground Commis-
sion, with C. c. Baldwin, Armin
Tomaschoff and George F. Reynolds
as it's active members, has secured
the use of the tract of land at the
northeast corner of Madison avenue
and Lewis street simply for the pay
ment of taxes thereon. Secretary
Tomaschoff is preparing articles of
agreement today, which will be for
warded tonight to owners of the land
in Newark and New York. These
will probably be signed tomorrow
and returned Immediately, in which
event a meeting of the commission
would be held the early part of next
week to make speedy arrangements
for securing equipment for the land.
In securing the land in question
the commissioners have a site which
they deem best suitable for a play
ground They have secured it at no
cost to the city, with the exception Of
payment of taxes, which annually
amount to little more than 500,
one of the commissioners said today.
The matter of furnishing equipment
and superintendent OF play will be
taken up as soon as agreements for
the property have been signed. The
city council will be asked for an ap-
preparation in the amount of proba-
bly, $1,000 to pay for this.

BAKELITE GO.
WILL ENLARGE
Demand for Product So Great
that New Buildings Will
be Erected.
REACH 100000 hARK
Briquatting Plant Will Va
cate Land to Make Room
--Plans Under Way.

The present plant of the General
Bakelite Company on the wet dock
property in Rector street is now un-
der full operation and Bakelite is
being turned out in large quantities.
The demand for this product has
grown SO great the past six months
that it will soon become necessary to
put up new buildings that were pro-
posed some months ago. The lease
Of the New Jersey Briquetting Com
pany on the Roessler & Hasslacher
property, at Rector and Fayette
streets, is understood to expire on
July / at which time this company
will have to vacate to make room for
Bakelite engagements.
At the present rate of growth
Bakelite interests here will soon go
beyond the 100000 mark. When
operations to make Bakelite were
first started in the early part of the
year, great things were predicted and
new buildings for it's manufacture
were proposed. None of the predic-
tions were wrong as the product is a
succlC. The first new building to be
erected will be from a hundred to a
hundred and fifty feet long and
about fifty feet wide.
Bakelite is a new plastic that can
be moulded into almost every con-
ceivable form. 1t can be made soft,
hard or medium. In the hard stage
it can be made to represent amber
Coloring can be admitted and all
sorts of articles can be manufactured
from it. Louis NJ. Rossi is the man
ager of the works.

Sewaren, June 23:-Three thieves
In an automobile made raid on
Sewaren about 1:45 o'clock this
morning. Two houses on West ave-
nue. were entered and money and
considerable jewelry of value was
carried away from one of them. The
robbers were heard and an alarm
was given, but they made their
escape.
The houses entered were those of
M. Irving Demarest and Wilson
! Waring Both robberies were COM
I mitted at the same time. Entrance
was gained through a rear dining
room window. One robber went to
each house while the third stood
guard outside. At signal from the
| latter the two In the houses hurried
out, jumped into an automobile and
hurried away. The direction in
which they went is not known.
Mr.. Demarest is away and Mrs.
Demarest had locked herself in her
noise of the thief She went to the
window and called for help. Before
she was aroused, however, the entire
house had been ransacked excepting
the room in which she slept Draw
ers were turned upside down on the
floor and clothing was scattered
everywhere, but as far as can be
| learned, only a few of Mr.. Demarest's
cigars are missing today.
At the Waring House.
At the Waring house the thief was
more successful. He entered the
room of Miss Preston and secured a
pocketbook containing ST. Some
jewelry was also secured. The fell
low also entered the room where
Miss Anna Waring was sleeping. He
made so much noise that he aroused
her and while she saw him at work
at her bureau Miss Waring did not
dare make an outcry. The thief got
SIS from handbag and took a Jewel
box from the bureau containing much
of value The box was later found
downstairs with the contents missing.
Mr.. Waring is an Invalid in the
house and could render no assistance.
The nurse attending him screamed
as she saw the robber leaving an
other room.
M. e. Turner, it seems, was the
only man at home In the whole neigh
borhood with the exception Of Mr..
Warfng He heard the cries of the
women and ran out as soon as he
could, but by that time the thieves
had gone.

seven carriage loads of colonial
premiers and other colonial repre-
sentatives, each escorted by colonial
cavalry. Next came six carriage
loads of Indian rajahs escorted bv
Indian troops. Then came the royal
section led by Colonel Keer and fol-
lowed by all the highest army and
navy officers in the service.
There were detachments from all
branches of the army and navy, as
well as detachments from the Aus
trian artillery, German Hussars and
Spanish infantry. General Kitch-
ener rode along side the royal car
riage through the glass doors of
which the crowds could plainly see
the king and queen. George wore
the full uniform Of the field marshal
and the insignia Of the Order of the
Garter. Mary was dressed in white
and wore a large blue hat.
Winston Churchill, home secretary
was the only member of the cabiet
IN the procession. He was hissed
by those who could not restrain their
political dislike for him. Friends.
however, answered the Kisses with
cheers.
