ST a Year--Woman's Club
Aiding the Cause.

Through the efforts of the Board
of Trade the property opposite the
New Jersey Central railroad station
will probably be used for park pur-
poses. j. F. Chandler, assistant to
the vice president of the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad, who own the property,

gether with Secretary Ivan H. Wise
inspected the proposed location for
a city park. He stated that he would
recommend to the president to grant
the city of Perth Amboy lease of
the land at one dollar per year, pro-
vided that the tax rate on it Is not
increased. The land is now rated as
second class railroad property in the
assessors classification.
AS soon as Secretary Wise receives
the official offer of the grounds he
will refer 1t to the Board of Alder
men to take the necessary steps TO
lease this property and fit it up for
a city park.
The Woman's Club has sent COM
munication to the board, stating that
they wish to cooperate in the project
and it is believed with that club, the
Board of Trade and the Board of
Aldermen working for the park that
this city will have an attractive
recreation place this summer.

CHILD VICTIM
OF BON FIRE
Dies Today as Result of
Horrible Burns.

Five-year-old Annie Naachik, of
AL Ashley street. died about 10
O'Clock this morning as the result of
being horribly burned while playing
around a bonfire yesterday morning.
The little girl was playing with
several companions in Ashley street
when they decided to make bonfire
In lighting the dry sticks and leaves
they had gathered together in pile,
the little girls clothing became ignit-
ed. Her mother, hearing her cries,
rushed TO her, but the blazing clothes
of the child were consumed so rapid
ly that she could not extinguish them
until she had reached the house and
wrapped the charred body in large
quilt.
Dir. Judson G. Cottrell was called,
but he saw little hope for the fire
victim and advised sending the child
to the city hospital and had the am
bulance called. The mother probably
thought that course would be useless
and refused to let the child be taken
to the institution.

Sunday morning dances were call
ed to a halt yesterday by the police.
Following action to stop the sale of
liquors without a license at dances
and similar gatherings, Chief of Po.
lice Patrick ]. Burke ordered the lid
clamped on tight with regard to
dances after midnight on Saturdays.
The Puritan basketball teams dance
in Washington hall Saturday night
was the first to be closed at the mid
night hour and this caused no small
amount of CONSERVATION among the
members and their guests. There
had been every expectation of con-
tinuing until o'clock yesterday
morning. Several people left the
Auditorium at the closing hour there
and came to Washington hall and
paid an admission fee of fifty cents.
A few minutes later they were rout-
ed together with all others in the
hall.
Chief Burke declared today that
no dance or other similar public
function would be allowed to con-
tinue after midnight on Saturdays,
determining that the Sabbath laws
must no longer be violated. He said
the police would not stop any strict
ly private affairs. He claimed to
know the difference between public
and private gatherings, despite the
fact that some organizations hold
public dances and issue invitations
in an effort to have it appear that
they are private.
The chief noted that invitations
were issued for the Puritans' dance,
but he also saw there was printed
on them Gentlemen assessed SO

Roundsman Morris closed the affair
promptly at midnight. He saw that
other places observed the law and
found no occasion to give orders to
close. The Auditorium management
observed the law in every way and

THIEVES WHO ROBBED
MANY HOMES IN THIS
CITY CAUGHT AT LAST
JUNKMEN HELP
TH|EV|NC BOYS
Scored BY PoIics..0 Held
For Grand Jury

Concluding that unlawful practices
of some junkmen made thieves out
of boys in this city, the authorities
showed no mercy when Abe Goldberg,
of 406 Washington street, was ar
raigned this morning on a charge of
receiving stolen goods. He was held
in default of $500 bail to await the
action of the grand jury.
Paul Wargo. fifteen years old, of
1853 Parker street. calmly accused his
brother, Walter, thirteen years old,
OF being implicated in the theft of
two pigs of refined lead from Le-
high Valley freight car and accused
Goldberg Of buying 1t for $3.50. The
trio had been arrested as the result
Of vigilance on the part of Special
officer James McDermott, of the Le-
high Valley Railroad Company. He
accused the boys together with
others Of deliberately breaking a seal
from freight car In the new lower
yard and taking two pigs of Omaha
and Grant refined lead, which he es-
timated to be valued at more than
$50. He rounded up the two Wargo
boys and Is on the trail of other al
legged young thieves. The two arrest
ed were paroled until wanted.
1t is the opinion among the city
and railroad authorities that, there
would be little or no such stealing by
boys II junk dealers would not buy
the loot. For this reason they pro-
pose to make 1t as hard as possible
for all junk dealers who are caught
receiving stolen goods. ..s--
Abe Goldberg pleaded innocent to
knowingly having received any stolen
goods. He said be was green" in
the business and had no idea the lead
had been stolen, stating his employ
er, Harry Goldberg, ordered him to
return it, which he did. The theft
was committed on March 19 last and
the lead, weighing about 224 pounds,
was sold the same day to Goldberg.
He dickered with the young thieves,
offering from fifty cents UP to $3.50
for the loot.

ORDERS TOTS
OUT OF HOUSE
Two Little Boys Tell PitifuI
Story to Police.

Two little boys, Frank and William
Frazer, motherless and deserted by
their father, were turned out in the
world to seek shelter and live as
best they could last night. They
would probably have suffered from
pangs of cold and hunger had they
not received attention, from Patrol
man Calvin. He listened to their
story of eviction from the home of
Joseph Jonak, at sos Fayette street,
confirmed it and then ordered Jonak
to give them shelter and food for the
night at least.
The boys met officer Calvin on
Smith street, near the Central rail
road tracks, where they tearfully
told of their plight. Calvin accompa-
MED them to 308 Fayette street.
There Jonak said he had cared for
the boys long enough. He concluded
that it was up to their father, who
was living in Manville, this state, to
support them. Jonak gave them
shelter for the night and said he
would communicate with the father.
