Board of Commerce Membership Com
mittee Reaches Original Goal
of 500.

The goal of the membership com
mittee OF the Board of Commerce has
been achieved. With the So applica'
tons turned In Saturday. the total for
five days OF the campaign is well over
the 800 mark. But II any one thinks
the committee Is going 10 stop now
that 500 members have been secured,
they are entirely wrong. Every one
OF theta men conducting the big can
vas will start out Monday with re-
doubled energy, for II 10 the ambition
OF the committee now that 500 have

1000.
None Is more hopeful than I that
we will have 1000 applications at the
end OF the ten days. said Hugh
Chalmers. chairman OF the member.

ORANGE ELKS WIN
5000 PRIZE FOR
FLOAT IN PARADE
Members to Show Appreciation
to Ladies' Auxiliary
for Showing.

The float of Orange Lodge of Elks
which won the 5000 prize as the most
attractive feature in the parade at
the national convention of the order in
Atlantic City yesterday, was con-
tributed by the ladies' auxiliary of the
lodge. The float made a pretty APP
p~earance as it travelled down Atlantic
avenue, drawn by gaily caparisoned
horses, with flowing robes of purple.
the Elks' color. The float was emblem
attic of the principles of the order.
The columns were supported by
pretty women ~dressed as Grecian
maidens. The striking beauty and
daring originality of the float won in
slant attention. and the added charm
of the women made the picture ex-
ceedingly attractive. Without a band
heralding their approach and with but
a slender representation from the
lodge, led by Edward L. Aiken, past
exalted ruler, the auxiliary stood in
the competition solely on the merits
of the float. The decision of the
judge was a fine tribute to the work
of Mrs. George w. Foster, president of
the auxiliary, and the other women,
who labored for it's success.
A dangerous competitor to h Or
ange loaf was the massive replica OF
a warship, careful as to detail, even
smoke issuing from one of the tunnels,
from Newport, r. l. The lodge MEM
.bers in natty. navy uniforms, n led
by a fine band showed up well and
caused the Orange admirers to worry
a bit.

JEALOUSY LEADS
To DISCOVERY Of
THEFT BY WOMEN
DOmestics Who Robbed Glen
Ridge Employers Taken TO
County Jail.

One of the tasks of the grand jury
will be to sift out the story of the
loves and ~jeaiousies of two Glen Ridge
donestics, who, it is claimed, stole
their mistress's clothing in order to
charm the engaging Young clerk of the
family grocer. Both young women
were brought to the county Jail from
the Glen Ridge Police Court today,
after being held in $1,000 bail each for
the grand jury last night by Recorder
William e. Smith. The value of the
stolen apparel is placed at $500.
The two young women are Miss Mar
garet Collearn, a waitress, and Mrs.
Alice Ford. a coCl, and laundress. Their
employer is. or rather was. Gilbert w.
Taylor, of Glen Ridge. Policeman
Thomt Carly, on being notified by
Mrs. Taylor that something was wrong,
searched the basement and found the
clothing by posing as a gas inspector.
The women became acquainted in an
employment agency in Sixth avenue.
New York, where they were engaged
by Mrs. Taylor nearly a month ago.
In no time they had won the favor of
their mistress by their attention TO
their duties.
Shortly after the ome had taken
employment things began m%ysteriously
to disappear in the Taylor home. They
were mostly articles of clothing.
The Collearn woman. according to
statements made to the police, proved
the better charmer and had soon won
the favor of the grocery clerk.
Then THE green-eyed monster" APP
peared. The two women drifted
apart and finally, after a stormy ses-
sion, Mrs. Ford one day informed Miss
C%ollearn hat the groceryman was a
shrimp" Then she followed that
statement UP by limiting to her mis-
tress that she might be able to tell
what had become of a bedspread val
ued at SO, which was missing.
Mrs. Taylor telephoned to the police,
and Policeman Thomas Carly was sent
to investigate. Carly represented him.
self as an inspector Of gas meters, and
made for the cellar, where he began a
systematic search.
The policeman found a suitcase con-
tanning many If the missing articles,
including the bedspread. In another
box were found silk waists, handsome
gowns and other feminine garments.
In all the goods were valued at about
$500. No jewelry was taken. The Ford
woman was arrested by Carly and
Chief of Police Higgins took Miss Col
learn into custody. Each protested her
own innocence and accused the other.
Mrs. Ford broke down and cried, while
Miss Collearn laughed and treated the
matter as a Joke,

The Belleville police yesterday were
defeated in a baseball game by the
Newark police, the score being 10 to ID.
The game was played on the Newark
Athletic grounds. Those who played
for Belleville were Chief Flynn, Ser
geant Perl, "Stoney' Machette, Crisp,
Schurr, Joe Mccarthy, John Flynn,
Armstrong and Gracey.
1t is not thought that John T. Burke
will seek the Democratic nomination
for town clerk. Mr.. Burke has been
mentioned in connection with the office,
but 1t Is understood now that he will
not enter the race. Other Democrats
mentioned for clerk are former Clerk
John ]. Hannah, who held the position
for seventeen years, and John Law
renee.
Town Clerk Edward e. Mathes will
seek reelection to that Office. He will
run for the Republican nomination.
MIR. Mathes will be opposed by probably
two other Republicans for the nomina-
ton.
Mrs. Edward Holmes and family, of
