LOCKED IN VAULT, TWO !

Hoboken Mayor and a Council

WEST HOBOKEN, N. j.. April IS.
Mayor Charles A. Mohn and Coun-
Gilman Paul Seglie breathed signs of
relief when they were released, after
having been locked in the large re-
inforced steel vault of the City Hall
for over an hour and nearly suffo-
Gated.
The two worthy city officials at
tended a committee meeting Wednes-
day night and the discussions waxed
warm. The question of schools and
street matters seemed most momen-
tous to them, and they left the group
and went into private session in the
vault along with many city records.
Before going into that sanctum they
took off their coats and placed them
on pegs near the door. That fact
saved their lives.
Somebody, not knowing the mayor
and companion were in the vault, ST.
lently closed the huge doors and left
them to their fates.
First the Mayor beat on the heavy
steel and called out loudly But no
answer came. Then Segie Joined in.
with the result that their efforts went
for naught For an hour they fought
for help and air and were growing
insensible, when Custodian Sillery
saw the coats. thought he detected
noise from within the vault and
opened the place. The two men were
brought out, utterly exhausted.

TRUTHFULNESS THEME
At "AD" MEMS DINNER

The policy OF some department
stores to misrepresent things in their
advertisements was denounced last
night at the first annual dinner of
the recently organized Newark Nd
vertising Club at the Washington.
William r. Hotchkiss, of New York,
advertising director of Gimbel Bros,
expressed the opinion that the de-
partment stores were just waking
up TO the fact that advertising played
very important part in the success
of their business. Mr.. Hotchkiss de-
cried the dishonest advertiser, who
advertises something which he has
not got According to William f.
Freeman, advertising manager of
the New York Evening Mail, only
possible five out of the total num-
Der of New York department stores
are doing honest advertising.
Theodore Fettinger, president Of the
club. acted as POSTMASTER, Mr..
Fettinger declared that many Of the
department stores still adhere to the
sensational and low order of adver-
Using. He proposed that business
men and the publishers work hand
in hand to better advertising. An
other speaker was Carl Il. Alderman,
of New York city.
The affair last night took the form
of a complimentary dinner rendered
to the publishers and merchants of
the city by the club. Among those
present were Moses Plaut, julius
Straus and Rudolph Goerke, repre-
senting local department stores. A
delegation from the Elizabeth Board
of Trade was also lin attendance.
Others present were George Baright,
vice-president of the club; Jesse A..

The newspapers give immense

Local bankers have agreed to lend
the government from 100000 TO 25,-A

this will only ease the situation tenn q

JAIL CROWDED, WOULD
SEND CONNECTS TO "PEN'

Instead of building a new wing at
the county Jail for housing witnesses
and for a hospital ward, it has been
suggested by Chairman Richard F.
Malta, of the prison committee of the
Board of Freeholders, that additional
room be made at the county jail by
confining thirty-day prisoners in the
county penitentiary, instead of in the
Jail, as at present,
1t is pointed out that this would re-
move enough people from the Jail to
give plenty of room for hospital
ward and room space for witnesses
being detained, as well as helping to
relieve the congestion at the house of
detention by furnishing room to lodge
the older boys confined there in the
jail. The matter will be acted upon
by the Board of Freeholders in the
near future.
