HOUSE TWO ARE HELD.

Erwin j.. w. Huber and Charles J.
Smith, employees of the Newark Eve
ming News, were today arraigned at
the Fourth Precinct Police Court on
the charge of conducting a disorderly
house and held in $500 bail to await the
action Of the grand jury.
On Monday night last a performance
was given at the place conducted by
the W defendants, 8 South Orange
avenue, which was said by some spec
tators to have been shockingly in
decent. This was arranged by Homer
e. Dennis, who calls himself the EN-
pire Amusement Company. OF 1872 Mar
ket street.
Dennis, it is alleged, hired the upper
part of the house from Huber & Smith
with their full knowledge Of what was
about to a X place.
At the performance, 1t is charged,
two young women told vulgar stories
and were so clad as to shock even
many of those who were there. Plain
clothesman Sebold charges that one Of
them disrobed while in full view of the
audience.
Dennis was held in $500 on a similar
complaint. Captain Vogel was the
complainant

Have yea ever stopped to reason why
1t is that 80 many products that are
extensively advertised all at once drop
out Of sight and are soon forgotten?
The reason is plain-the article did not
fulfil the promises Of the manufac-
turer. This applies more particularly
to a medicine. A medicinal prepara-
ton that a real curative value al
most sells itself, as. like an endless
chain system, the remedy Is recon-
mended by those who have been cured
to those who are in need of it.
In an interview or the subject a
prominent local druggist says: Take

for in almost every case it shows i'm

M|LLBURN HOME
Of JOSEPH P. DAY
Quilted BY FIRE
Vile, Children and Quests
Escape Unhurt, but Flames
Do SI50,00O Damage.

The handsome residence OF Joseph
p. Day, on the top Of Short Hills, Mill
burn. was transformed into a great
glowing torch shortly before midnight
last night by flames which destroyed
it. The loss is estimated by the owner
at $4,000.
Mrs. Day. her children and several
guests had no difficulty in getting out
Of the house. but so rapidly did the
flames spread that they were able to
save little If anything Of their belong
ings. Day. who is the well-known real
estate auctioneer Of New York, did not
reach home until over a half an hour
after the discovery of the fire. when
all hope of saving the house had been
abandoned.
George Dillon, employed by Day as a
chauffeur. telephoned the Millburn fire
department. and then jumping into an
auto dashed to their headquarters. He
brought a number of the iremen back
with him, but as the nearest hydrant
was half a mile away they could do
little. The tiremen devoted themselves
to saving adjoining buildings.
Mr.. Day bought the property from
Christian Feigenspan, of this city, and
spent a great deal of money in i'm
proving it. The house was one of the
show places in that section of the
country. AS 1t burned last night the
flames could be seen for miles in every
direction.

that he had referred the matter TO the
department of justice. III the m
preston the New Jersey delegation
carried away with them was that the
secretary of war had not directed that
the department of justice intervene,
hut had left h matter to the iudg-
lnent Of the department of justice.
Today. however, when Congressman
Townsend and Mccoy called at the de-
partrnent Of justice the impression they
had received the day before was rad
lcally altered. The department Of JUS
tice, SO your correspondent is informed
by the congressman, very plainly in
rimated, l. ti-at fiat statement itself
was not made, that If the department
had interviewed in compliance with the
request from the secretary OF war that
it should do so.
Townsend and Mccoy appeared to
have exhausted their persuasive powers
with the Acknowledgement to procure
from him copies OF the letters the de-
LArtInent OF justice had received from
jae secretary of war relating to the
TWO OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and con-
Genlnation. The congressman seemed
10 know OF the existence of a letter
which they were very eager TO see, but
they appear to have left the depart
inent disappointed in their desire.
They informed your correspondent
that they will call upon the chairman
of the House committee on military
affairs and ask him TO procure from the
department of justice copies of letters
that department has received from the
secretary of war.
They appear TO be confident that the
chairman of the committee on military
affairs win comply with their request,
but If for any reason he finds it in
expedient to do so they will have intro
duced into the House not later than
tomorrow a resolution calling upon
both the war department and the de-
partment of justice for all correspond
ence. records and documents relating
TO the whole affair.

pend on Lakewood Votes.
IRON a Stan correspondent.l

TRENTON, April 1.-TWO members
of the Senate elections committee,
Bradley and Frelinghuysen, are
strongly inclined to have a look into
the disputed ballot-box in Lakewood
Township in the Low-Mathis con-
tested election case.
This Is the township in which II In
alleged that the ballot-box had been
stuffed sufficiently to change the Q
suit in favor of Mathis.
Senator Bradley is evidently Of the
belief that this particular ballot-box
would reveal whether Low or Mathis
is entitled to the Ocean county seat in
the Senate. In fact, the whole matter
was made to turn upon the contents of
hat box.
Fol some reason, not made clear, II
was said The prosecutor of Ocean
county would decline to surrender the
ballot-box, but the committee is OF
the opinion that If they demand It
they will get II. They have not de-
cided what course they will ultimately
pursue. That matter will not be do
cided until the committee holds an
other meeting.
Senator Bradley said this morning
that no time had been set for further
consideration of the Ease.

his failure to get a license for his dog.
When summoned on Tuesday Maclakos

and as this was evidently an error the
summons was dismissed and the at
torney sen his client out to license
the dog.
The court announced hat in spite
of the defect in the original summons
he would issue an order. and Giordano
said he would fight n attempt to
penalize the owner, going to the Circuit
Court IL necessary. Judge Bray was
standing near the banana establish
ment of the dog owner this morning
and the two men had an informal talk.
After the our assured Maclakos the
result Of a conviction would cost him
more than the 50 costs the owner took
a short cut to harmony and paid over
the sum later in the day.
