MAYORS WIFE
WAS WORRIED
Thought Policeman Was Co.

South Amboy

SOUTH AMBOY. May Airs.
Daniel c. Chase, wife of Mayor ID. G..
chase, had a rather worrisome ex-
perience yesterday afternoon shortly
after 2 O'Clock upon arising from
an afternoon nap. The wife of the
chief executive of the city, remem
bered that previous to her %sojourn
into sunderland, the mayor had
told her he was going to the city
hall, with the sole purpose of allow
Ing n of the police officers a shot
at him. Mrs. Chase paid little at
tention to the statement of the may
or, and in fact. went to her repose
in a pleasant mood as is her Gus
tom. She was rudely awakened,
however, as her mind drifted into
the channel of previous conversation
with her husband.
She arose quickly and flew to the
telephone, hurriedly asked the OPP
orator for the City Hall. To add to
the great worry. she was informed
that the line was busy. Perhaps, like
all women, many things went sorlng
through the1 head of Mrs. Chase.
Perhaps the police were calling an
undertaken or maybe a physician.
She asked the operator for the num-
- dSH'ht oHu III LHc levy sCtOHuS IL
takes to plug in the line, (although
they Nemed like hours) the voice of
Acting Chief Thomas Gleason ans
wered "Citv HALL" Like a flash Mrs.
Chase said: us the mayor there %
why. yes" came the answer, hes
in his office, shall l call him % No
said Mrs. Chase, and then again. rs
the shooting all over?" The chief
answered that it was. Mrs. ~ n
again asked: Did they shoot at Mr..
Chaser" The sergeant sta,eu T..
they did not. He wanted to block
several of the bullets. but the officers
insisted that he remain out of range
Mrs. Chase thanked the chief and sat
with a sigh of relief.
About this time a representative
of the News called at the homo OF
the mayor, where Mrs. Chase relat-
ed the story to him in confidence.
IT seems that a representative of the
Bullet Proof Vest Corporation of
New York City, had arranged with
Mayor Chase to give a demonstration
of the practicability of the vest, at
the City Hall grounds yesterday aft
