HOLD UP GIRL
ON THE STREET
Miss Martha Nelson Escapes
From Mans Clutches.

Presence of mind and pluck OF a
sixteen year old girl prevented a
daring holdup at State and Paterson
streets Saturday. Miss Martha Mel
en-, of the Danish Orphan Home at
SIS State street, was the intended
victim. She says a tall man with a
dark face snatched at her handbag,
but missed it as she swung around
in an effort to avoid his clutches he
chased her to the home, wher n
escaped from him.
The girl afterwards told PATROL
man L. C. Jensen that she was walk
ing on State street at Paterson
street when the stranger approached
her. He asked in a gruff voice Got
any money!" Calmly the girl replied
mo" w%hereupon he made a grab
for her bag. She ran to the home,
a distance of about two blocks,
with the robber in hot pursuit. he
boldly followed her into the yard
Of the institution and made a futile
attempt to grab her as she entered
the home. The girl made 40 cutlery,
but pluckily saved herself.
She noticed the robbers face was
| dark and his hands were lighter
| color. He wore dark and rough
clothes. The daring attempt was
made about $50 O'Clock Saturday
morning.

AGAINST FIGHTS
IN T0TTENV|LLE
Ministers Denounce Propos-
ed Qualification Is Read.

Protests were heard in every
church in Tottenyille yesterday
against the starting of a club to pro
mote fights and boxing bouts in that
place. In each of the pulpits of the
Protestant churches last night and
at the mass in the Catholic church
in the morning, the form of the petit
ton to be circulated in Tottenyllie
was read to the congregation. and all
church members we're asked to work
and lend their aid to stop the club

Since the announcement last week
that the Permo Athletic Club, OF TINS
city, had leased the Pavilion at the
foot of Main street, Tottenyille, and
were fixing 1t up to conduct lights
the ministers of Tottenville have
been campaigning against 1t.
Petitions are to be circulated
throughout the lower section OF the
island and forwarded to the boxing
commission of the state of New York

hibit the club from doing business.

Tottenville has already been before
the boxing commission and stated
their grievances. The state law In
New York covers all boxing clubs
and the clubs are under the state
commission. If the fights are con-
Quoted within the law they can be
held.

individual interests and to work for
the Perth Amboy's first good and the

Is men who want to work, who will
hustle onto the firing line and make
honest effort to give Perth Am

know it should have.
The way to do things is to get a.
good start; let US make that start
