There are two. times in the year
when it is important to give the
domestic premises q thorough over
hauling and cleaning-in the spring
and in the autumn. Every house
wife knows the need and requires
no urging, although these spring
and fall cleanings may have their
terrors and may bring great dis
comfort to every member of the
family. A well kept house is, of
course. clean all the time. but even
in the most carefully managed es-
Establishments special cleanings are
essential to good health.

that he later recommended for this

AROUSE INTEREST IN

Public Sentiment in Favor Of Move

in High School Auditorium.

80 Fl MeWEHn MtM
III SybIic Fairgrounds and their ben
1acial qualities were topics that
aroused more interest than ever in
the playground movement at the
OPT Ing meeting on the subject UNI
uer the auspices of the civics and So
GEOLOGY department of the Woman's
Club In the high school auditorium
last night. The large attendance
indicated to a certain degree the in
terest that is taken by the public
In the movement and the manner In
which applause was given the speak
ers tended to show that their eff
forts in supporting the movement
was appreciated.
The meeting was a huge success
from every point of view. Every
speaker, including Mayor Bollsch-
weller and member Of the school
board, declared themselves in favor
OF establishing public Fairgrounds
here, but the cfty's chief executive
expressed his doubts that they could
be granted at this time on account
Of the expense involved, which
would necessarily burden the city.
Lincoln d. Rowley, secretary of
the Playground Commission in East
Orange, a man who has aided in
bringing up hundreds Of children in
public schools and who has seen
Fairgrounds grow from a mere ex-
pertinent to n OF the best things in
a city, gave a highly interesting and
instructive talk on the subject. He
told of the good to be derived from
properly conducted Fairgrounds and
offered In rebuttal to Mayor Boil
schweiler's plea of the great cost of
one here, that 1t could not In any

Daring Gang Commit Wholesale Rob
berries During Might've Saloons
and Three Houses Are Entered.
SECURED But LITTLE MONEY

One Of the most daring series of
burglaries in this city for some time
was committed last night when either
one or two gangs robbed Joe Gadek Is
hotel on State street near the United
Lead Works and entered all the likely
places along State street, and in the
vicinity, all the way to Washington
street where the traces Of their work
ceased. The robberies showed a certain
familiarity with the neighborhood
which leads Detective Sergeants Huff
and Long, who spent the morning In
.vestigating, to believe that the perpe-
traitors of the burglar;es are local men
probably Of Hungarian or Polish ma
~tionaiity.
The places visited included the fol
lowing: Joseph Gadek, saloon, s72
State street, Anton Gadek, saloon, 765
State street; two dwellings near the
latter place; John Nikodem, saloon,
752 State street; John Starub, boarding

The first news of the robberies wa.

Wilson will send q special message
to the Legislature urging the pass
age OF statutes intended to prevent
a catastrophe like that which caused
the deaths OF SO MAN. persons and

qaested Joseph r. Tumulty, secre-
tary to the governor, to take such
steps as will cause the governor to
be Immediately fully Informed as to
the exact status Of the laws In this
state dealing with the storing and
transportation Of explosives. Mr..
Tumulty forthwith arranged with
the attorney generals department
for a search OF the laws of the state
to find out Just what there Is on the

made to the governor by Assistant
Attorney General Nelson B. Gaskill,
and If 1t is found that the state has
not absolute control over the storing
and movement OF explosives within
the state, the Legislature will be
asked to see that proper Jurfsdic-
ton is provided.
It has been intimated that New
Jersey is without stringent law upon
this subject, prominent lawyers
claiming that they have been unable
