COMING HOME
Local Soldier Killed in France
to be Honored in
This City

A telegram has been received by
Mrs. Margaret Egan of 2S3 McClel-
Ian street from the Graves Registra-
ton Service giving notification hat
the body of her husband, John Is,
Egan, who was killed in the Argonne
Forest on October Is, 1918 is ex-
pected to arrive in Hoboken tomor-
row. This telegram was received
Yesterday afternoon and requested
information in regard to the point
to which it should be shipped. The
body will be taken to 1S7 Madison
avenue, the home of the deceased
soldiers parents, upon its ARRIVAL IN
this city.
Egan left this city on September
6, 1917 with five other men. repre-
senting the second contingent TO
leave this city for Camp Dix. Five
men left this city on September 3 In
the first contingent. He was assign
ed to Company ID. 311th Infantry
and left this country for France on
May 20, 1918.
He served in the st. Mihiel Sec
tor and on the Meuse-Argonne front
and was killed October 16, 1918. His
body was originally buried in a little
town known as Lacon. France, about
three miles behind the spot where
he was killed.

several days after its arrival in Ho-
boken. This has been the custom in
cases of other local soldiers. The

and social time at the East Jersey
Club last night, was one of those
occasions that 1t is hard to find a
word or a group of words to -ex-
press. To say that the fifty men,

would be putting in mildly indeed.
Without a doubt it was n of the
finest social affairs the club has ever
held.
During the evening party lines and
all other differences of opinion were
forgotten and everyone enjoyed
himself to the limit. 1t was n of
those occasions when joy ruled su-
preme and everybody had a good
time. The main features of the
evening was the entertainment
which was furnished by out of town
talent. The management of the
club is to be congratulated on the
high class of entertainment obtained
for the occasion.
Those appearing on the program
were: Roy King, piano and singing;
Harry Hayden, novelty act; Frank
Sherman ,monologuist; John Nc
Gowan portrayed the actions of for
mer Senator James L. MARITIME to
perfection. MCGOWAN was a repor-
ter on the Newark Evening News at
the time MARITIME ran for election
and campaigned with him. There
were also three acts from the Ma
jestic theatre and selections by
