SCISSOR, and Arthur A. Quinn, of
Perth Amboy, an assembly candidate.
Mr.. Quinn gave a very good talk.
Charles A. Brady, candidate for the

Nash's hall never before had he'd
such an enthusiastic crowd. They

of a candidates name, yet listened
with marked attention. The walls
of the hall were decorated with Wiz

mann, consented to guide the visitors
through the mystic maze at st.
~Joseph's. They consented, and the
start was made. The finish did not
occur, however, until the crowd had
besieged Congressman Scully and the
other candidates for n form OF

we're 400 at the fair when the candi-
dates party arrived, although 1t was
nearly II o'clock.
After the fair had returned to

candidate to make a short address.
Mr.. Scully lead the way, and gave a

movements, like bza,s, and declared
his gladness to be in a position to
assist a worthy cause. DR.. Ramsay
| made an address that will be remem-
bered by all in attendance. He spoke
on the C lose connection Of the
church and the medical profession;
one treats the spiritual and the other
the physical side of the body. Mr..
Quinn followed DR.. Ramsay with d
few remarks, as did Mayor Hermann,
who was given the biggest reception
of the evening.
Mr.. Burton In Town.
Unluckily for the fair ladies Of
Roosevelt, all the candidates are
married, with but one exception. Mr.
Burton, of New Brunswick. stood
alone amid a bevy of popular and
equally beautiful bellies, and was soor
pronounced as the Beau Brummel oil
the Democratic ticket. st. Joseph's
fair ends tonight, after a successful.
run during the las tsix days. 1t was
planned by Father Hagerty to relieve
the church of a small building In
~debtedness which will be paid of a
