The eating began Immediately after
the Silver Star had pushed away from
the foot of East oath St., at $3.50 yes
terdsy morning. Beefsteak and celery
were the articles served. The steak
was cooked on the stove used by the
first beefsteak club in this city, which
had its meetings in a building at Ham

On the way down Charlie White,
who has mellow bass voice of the
same rich sweetness as that boosted
by Joe Humphreys. sang several of
the old Harrigan and Hart songs. One
was "The Widow Nolan's Goat" Mr..
White asked the reporter to reprint
il. explaining that the youth of hun
dreds of thousands of Tribune readers
would be revived on seeing the words
of the old favorite. Therefore:

inspired by the strains of "The Multi

Before the clambake started the
members contested in various races for
prizes and also played baseball. The
return trip was made soon after the
dinner was finished, but it was late
hour when strollers at the Battery saw
the lights of the nearing Silver Star
and heard the strong, liquid notes OF
"H.a-r-r-i-g-a-n."

DEPUTY SHERIFFS
ON ANNUAL FROLIC
Freeport, L. l., Sees Agile
Subpoena Servers in
Playful Mood.

Persons doing business with the
Sheriff's Office to-day are requested to
remember that "the voice with the
smile WINS" for even deputy shertf
and assistant deputy sheriffs are HUI
man. This indulgence might not be
necessary, and then again 1t might, Tor
the members of Sheriff Grifenhagen's
staff had an outing yesterday at Free
port, Long Island.
Some captious person might suggest
that this place on the south shore OF
Long Island was chosen because II
sounded like something for nothing, but
such suggestion is unworthy of con-
sideration. The chief reason was that
Sheriff Grifenhagen has his summer
home there, and as he is still summer
ing, the deputies paid him visit on
their way to the outing grounds, the
Sheriff entertaining and showing his
men over his estate. Later he and
Louis Moskowitz, his chief clerk, Joined
the merry throng at dinner.
The programme of the day after ar
irving at Freeport was breakfast, mo-
tor boat trip on Hampstead Bay and
dinner. There was only one dissatis-
flying feature Deputy Louis Zeltner's
refusal to eat. Some attributed this
abstinence to dletetlc objections, though
1t was limited that he was trying to gain
an advantage over Deputy Philip Me-
Donell in the fat mans race. However,
there was no fat mans race. so Zelt-
ner's strange behavior remained mys-
terry.
There was an exhibition of agility by
Deputies Leslie and ed" Cook, illus
trating how men and things to be at
tached on judicial warrant are reached.
Deputy Ginsburg represented a stub
born debtor, only he didn't know it, for
he was asleep in the Aumuller e. Roth
man Hotel, where the outing was held.
Leslie and Cook entered an adjoining
room and, climbing along a narrow
ledge, crawled in window and seized
the debtor"
Deputies Kelleher and Sam" Harris,
in charge of the arrangements, received
the congratulations of every one be-
cause they tsbooed all war talk. KEEL
leher explained it would be embarrass-
ing to have Deputy Durkin or Deputy
Shannon boast of the prowess of their
German brethren in the presence of
such patriotic sons of France as Dep.
uty Mofat and Deputy Allesandro.
