ty-nine miles from Manhattan and D.
heat twenty-eight miles. 1t is in one OF
the most picturesque sections OF MOI

along the New York Long Brahcn
Railroad. rapidly being built Up with
handsome. costly homes.
The Central Railroad of New Jersey
and the Pennsylvania Railroad both run
through the town. besides the old Ne"
Jersey Southern Railroad. which is no"
part of the Central Railroad system
Red Bank therefore not only enjoys al
the train service running over the New
York e. Long Branch Railroad out II
also has the advantage or having tle
only stop on the Central Railroad De-
tween Lakewood and New York. All the
fast express trains over the southern
Railroad between Atlantic City Lake
wood and New York stop at Red BahN
in both directions This splendid ran
road service has resulted in large NUM-
hers of New York business man making
their permanent homes at Red Bank.
II is surrounded by large country es-
tates
The chief natural attraction OF ked
Rank is the Shrewsbury River. TINS
river is about three-quarters OF mile
wide, and is lined with beautiful scenery
Along its shores are lofty hills and hand
some country estates. Sailing is much
enjoyed pastime on the Shrewsbury.
There are several yacht clubs and motor
boat clubs. In winter iceboat sailing Is
one of the principal sports on the river

An election held in Red Bank recently
marks the beginning of a new era in
the advancement of that place. At least
this is the opinion in the minds of pro-
gressive people there. In the past 1t
has been difficult to get the people to
unite on any improvement owing TO
local differences, but at this election
differences were very scarce, and the
people. by a vote of to l. decided
in favor of extensive improvements 10
the town.
Red Bank has no streets leading to the
river Originally it had a number, and
the maps and records, of these streets
are on file in the office of the County
Clerk at Freehold, the county seat OF
Monmouth. These streets were gradual
ly encroached upon by property owners
until all leading to the river had been
closed One Of the questions voted on
was the opening of Maple avenue to the
river This is one of the important
streets of the town. and the proposition
was carried by a vote of 10 to l.
A public dock will probably be built
at the foot of the avenue. Large appro-
priations had been made by Congress
for the dredging and Improvement of
the Shrewsbury River, but this work
will not be undertaken until public
dock is erected. Red Bank people expect
great things from the Improvement OF
the river. the upper part, about the
present steamboat dock and in front Of
the proposed public dock, having become
very much filed up. The dredging of the
channel to this point, together with I'M
provements contemplated in other parts
of the river, will give Red Bank fine
channel and make the place much more

easy OF access by water. The present
channel is tortuous and difficult Of navi-
cation. and the Improvement OF the river
will probably bring to Red Bank very
large number OF pleasure and business
vessels.
Another Improvement voted for by the
people was the opening Of Drummond
Place Red Bank has number of dead
ends Of streets. From time to time some
of these streets have been opened. but
none of them has been so important as
the opening of Drummond Place. This
street leads direct from the business part
Of the town to the residential section.
The proposition OF buying two powerful
fire engines was also voted on. and this
like other plans placed before the
people. was carried by large majorities
All OF the fire houses in Red Bank. ex-
cept one. are owned by the town or by
the individual companies The people
at the election last week decided to buy
a site for a new fire house and to build
thereon a structure of the most i'm
proved type. The fire engine will be run
by motor and will be both speedy and
powerful.
Red Bank has three boat cluos-the
Monmouth Boat Club. the Monmouth
Club and the Red Bank Motor Boat
Club. Each of these boat clubs has pro-
perty on the river front. There is talk
of these clubs consolidating. II this is
done Red Bank will have one Of the larg-
est boat clubs In the State of New Jer-
sey The motor boat club has fine
site along the deep water Of the river.
II purchased its property last year at
cost of 5000. and since that time 1t
has spent large sums In building and
making a number Of Improvements to
its property. II Is probable that this
site will be selected as that for the con-
soldated clubs should consolidation be
effected.
The streets Of Red Bank are kept in
fine condition and the famous Rumson
Road is the extension of one OF the
roads leading through Red Bank. The
direct automobile route from New York
to the shore leads through Red Bank.
This is a continuous stone road from the
time It enters the county until Its south

a Firehouse Which VIII
Cost $4,000.

From a struggling little town in an OBJ
scure corner Of Shrewsbury township.
and located on the south shore Of the
North Shrewsbury River just two miles
east Of Red Bank Fair Haven has grown
into a strong, efficient and progressive
Incorporated borough Of about three
thousand population. 1t was not, how
ever, until after a hard fight that the
town was incorporated into borough.
The objection to home rule put up by
many OF the taxpayers was the fact that
the town was too small and that a gov
eminent rule would doubly increase the
tax rate. Despite the strong opposition
the town was organized into a borough
the latter part OF April, 1872 The first
meeting Of the Common Council WAS held
in the irehouse on Monday night June
g. 1912 Frank Covert was elected Mayor
and he still holds that Office.
Fair Haven has no industries The
summer folk and staid cOt,agers use
Red Bank as a trading centre. The bor-
ough has an efficient fire department
two churches. I public dock. an excel
lent waterfront and shore. board OF
health. a public library. an ice yacht
club. a players boat club and . high

is greatly due to the interest taken
in the municipal government - the
actresses and actors. many OF whom
make this their permanent home. The
player folk have u colony here which is
composed Of many well known people on
the American stage The members Of the
club hold weekly outings and they rem
der their services gratis for anything
that benefits the town. Each year. along

A delegation Of sheepmen met with
the county commissioners yesterday to
ask cooperation in the establishment
of new sheep trail through Emi gra-

will pass far above the stream at the
points where contamination is possI-
BILE and also will result in q detour
around the colony Of summer cottages

EVERYTHING READY
FOR TRADE, EXCURSION
Accommodations Of Special Train Al
most Filled, Trip Affords Unusual
Opportunity to See Utah.

Today will conclude the final prepa-
ratious for the Creator Utah excursion,
which begins its week s trip Monday
morning.
At tho commercial club yesterday
the various chiefs of divisions worked
overtime. Tickets by the dozen were
signed by II. II. Hunkins, master of
transportation for the excursion. Fred
Graham, who is in charge of the vocal
end OF the music section, put the fin
shing touches upon number Of songs
written especially for the occasion.
That the excursion will surpass any
thing Of the kind ever before at
tempted, is conceded on every side
Last years trade "trip TO Idaho brought
Utah invaluable advertising. News
paper clippings by the basketful came
to the commercial club long after the
trip had been completed, and even TO
this day the club receives letters re-
calling in pleasant way the Idaho
Trip;
an opportunity for Salt Lake business
men to renew acquaintance with their
customers in other cities and towns
Merchants from every town in the
state come to Salt Lake at least twice
every year, and they will appreciate
call from the men with whom they do
business in the capital
Some Of the business men who have
purchased tickets will probably find
themselves unable to make the entire
trim. In order that they may lose none
of the benefits thereof, however, they
viii make a part of the journey them
selves and send representative to fin
ish out the itinerary.
There arc still few berths left that
may be engaged today. Yesterday
President Woodruff of the commercial
club and the entire board Of governors
extended u cordial invitation TO the
business men Of Salt Lake, whether
they be members of the club or not. TO
call at the club today and talk over the
excursion. After learning the com
plete details, doubtless many of them
will become convinced that it will be
to their material interests AS we'll as
for their pleasure to make the trip.

ARGUE A DEMURRER
IN HAMMOND CASE

demurrer by the defense in the
case of Salt Lake City against W, B.
Hammond. accused of running a dis
orderly house, was argued before
Judge f. C. Ioofbou5OT ROY IN the dis
advisement The demurrer is based
on the contention that tho commission
form Of government law is unconstitu-
tional, in that it gives the city com
mission legislative, judicial and exccu-
tive powers. whereas the constitution
provides that such powers shall not be
vested in one body.
Judge Loofbourow took the demurrer
under advisement. and the trial OF the
case was set for May 19. 1t is under
stood that the defense intends to carry
the matter to the supreme court for
another test Of the commission law,
in case it loses in the district court.
