Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-06-25

Chicago. Martin Momberg suggest
ed last night that as there would be
celebrations in three different sec
lions of the city, speakers of foreign
.' tongue ought to be procured. 1t IS
the intention Of the executive mem
bers that if such speakers of local
talent can be obtained, that the
Hungarian orator speak where the
Hungarian band will play, and the
Slavish orator be assigned where the
Slavish band will appear. The speak
er's committee was informed to get
the speakers and report at the next
meeting, which will be held July 2.
Circus Is Engaged.
That the number of injuries to
children will be the least yet record
ed in this city is practically assured
when one considers the amusements
which the entertainment committee
has already contracted. 1t is be-
lieyed by many that the attractions
already booked to appear will be
sufficient to keep the younger gener-
alton of this city on the 90 from
morning until night. Besides the
free moving picture shows which
will be given in the morning and
which will appeal to every child in
llp Guy, CldlItl = ldIS sc tlICuS VI
horses, ponies, monkeys and clowns
will be presented. Every section of
the city will be given equal oppoTtu-
nifty to witness the circus perform
ance as three exhibitions will be
given, one in each section of the city
chosen. One performance will be
given near the post office, while the
others will be given in the northern
onI uract arm GnGtinnC of tho ritV A
midget policeman and two jugglers
will also be added features, explain
ed Mr.. Leon, chairman of the chill
dren's entertainment committee, in
his report last night.
Concerts by Three Bands.
Chairman William II. GriswOld, of
the music committee, reported that
the musicians were practically pro-
cured and each of the three bands
would give concerts twice during the
day, or once at night and the other
during the day. Each band will be
required to give six hours of concert
music. Nelson's band will give their
music at the park in the afternoon
and also at the baseball game on the
Copper Works diamond. These two
events, the oratory and the ball
game, follow in rapid succession.
The game viii commence at 3
o'clock. The speaker will be heard
from 2 until about 2:45 o'clock.
Nelson's crew of players will also
give the evening concert at the fire
works display. The Hungarian and
Slavish bands will be assigned to the
celebrations in the other sections of
the city.
Need Money for Fireworks.
Contrary to former expectations,
the money now received instead of
being used for fireworks will be eX-
pended for the circus. music, etc.
The amount to be spent on fireworks
display will depend upon the re-
Spouse to the appeal of the acting
mayor. The children's entertain
ment committee was given assurance
of a $500 appropriation, the music
committee WAS also made certain
that $3.50 would be awarded them,
while $50 was assured for baseball
and about the same amount for the
water sports. These appropriations
consume nearly the whole amount Of
funds on hand and so the fireworks
display will depend upon the
amounts which will be received from
now on.
Other Generous Offers.
Besides the cash received by
Treasurer Harry Conard and the free
nse of the Tryonix as we'll as Proc
tors theatre. Acting Mayor Garrett
b said hat communications had
been received stating that the New
York & New Jersey Steamboat Com
pany would transport the circus ma
terial free of charge. Some more
good news was received when word
was given that William J. Donnell,
the lumber man, would furnish tim
Der for the platforms which the
speakers would need without charge.

spacious Auditorium to the celebra-
lion committee but no action was
t~aken-on-the offer.
Land and Water Sports.
1t vas not reported by the athletic
committee which two teams would
play the baseball game as Chairman
ALBERT Bran stated that he would
consider giving the Puritans a
chance. However, the attraction will
be u of the best as two of the fol-
lowing three star mines of this city
will clash on that day: The St.
Anthonys. the d. A. A. c. squad and
the Puritan baseball team. The
water sports committee will have
