In harmony with tho day made prom inent because 6f Ireland’s patron sain t having once npon a time driven all the snakes and toads from th a t fa ir island ip to th e sea, (according to the fable), the beach orchestra yesterday played Irish airs about every o ther number, and the musicians wore the shamrock leaf on the lapel of their coats and ehirtw alst^one of the players being a young lady. •

* * *L et us repeat fo r the ’steenth tim e th a t

the sunparlor registers are not to be used by the regular 8(J5r<Iays-in*the-year residents. T h e y -^ G ’p ro tffa u lt w hatever would be found with perm a­nent local people if they registered once, b u t lot th a t end it. Some of the silly youths and ^ illie rg irls of-this tow n-have-w ritten-w hat they call sm art things on the registers a fte r their names th a t they ought to be ashamed of, provided, of course, they h av ea sp a /k o f modesty or common sense about them . The registers have served a good purpose from th e tim e they were flrst used, but th e ir pur­pose and in ten t is no t to have w ritten on their pages p. lot of nonsense by a parcel of foolish upstarts and creatu res under age. Gentlemen and ladies never do such things. Owing to the abuse of the registering priv­ilege by home residents, the pier sunparlor reg ister Is filled and’another will have to be provided a t considerable expense.

* * *The habit of registering as having come

from some distant city by local people is a n ­other reprehensible practice. T his trick Is uofronly prai?ticed by^home peop lerbu triir some instances visitors are guilty of th e of­fense. A young woman who registered a t one of the parlors w ithin a few days gave a New Jersey town as her home place, when i t is known for a certainty th a t she residesin Brooklyn. - : /

A ride over the roads in Monmouth county a t present dem onstrates the’ fact-thafc'the highways are in the w orst condition th ey have been for years. From every section comes the same story—deep, aticky m ud— and a t some points It is said to be absolutely impossible for a team to puli a load. The conditions are Just the same in the back part* of the country as they are in the snore towns and localities. i

"Part of this,unsatisfactory sta te of affairs is no doubt due to the w eather this springy b u tf t ie ^ 'fo ^the method of uoad making as generally practiced. So^ne time ago there w as a heavy snowfall, which came when there was a deep frost In the ground. W hen the snow molted 'i t , was ground up with the clay and d irt of the roads, and ju s t as the roads were beglm£ng to d ry up a trifle there came ano th& fali of snow which made them even worse than they w ere before. Some of this snow still remains a t the sides of the roads in many places where the road Is shaded by trees, aijd It feed* tho roadtf w ith w a ter and keeps them in a bad con­dition. This was noticeable by a p arty th a t ;m a4etherrtrip <to TG.leudolar;andr,return4^8t, night.

In many places most of the road work is done In the fall, although there is a law prohibiting road' work a fte r a certain date.

The Neptune township comm ittee held a session yesterday th a t coutlnued from 10 a , m. until la te in the afternoon and consider­able business was transacted. D u rirg the m orning session Herman Llebenthal, one of the defeated Democratic candidates a t Tuesday’s election fo r constable,- filed the following protest w ith the committee:

G e n tle m en :—The undersigned herew ith protests against the adm inistration of the oath of office by your committee .to. L. C. H ijbbtfr^()who claims to have been elected

-1 h ^ C if i( ^ ‘6f <eo'nstablfra€2thfeilast,:eifecii6Tt held on Tuesday, March 14. The grounds of p ro te s t.a re : E rro r-in the cou rtin g o f votes, irregularity in conducting said elec­tion, Illegal rejection o f ballots, Illegal re* ception of ballots. The undersigned gives fu r th e r notice th a t he will proceed accord­ing to law to contest .the election on the grounds above stated , and-a lso on other grounds not specifically set forth .

H erman L ier en th a l . The committee decided th a t the m a tte r of

a contest was, according to tho law , o u t­side of their jurisdiction, and therefore no action was taken upon the protest. I t w as simply received and.fllod, and when Mr

day w ith a satisfactory bond, i t was re. ceived, and the clerk adm inistered to him the oat}i of office.

The road overseers and town committees who now have the road work under their control say th a t it is Impossible to g e t team s a t any other season of the year, and. th a t if the Work on the roads is not done In the fall It will not be done a t a ll. W hen clay and gravel Is p u t on the roads In the fall It does not have a chance to become worked down and packed before freezing w eather sets in, and consequently the w orst places in the roads in th e spring are those where the most work was done the fall before.

I t Is also tho custom of the road overseers in many places to plow up the roads' under their control in the fall and to throw tbe earth from the gutters In the middle of the road. I t Is In the places where this is done th a t the worst roads a re to be found in the spring,--The-m aterial dug ou t o f-th e-g u t­ters a t the side of the road is usually a com-

'’post of dead grass, leaves, and the worn ou t road m aterial which Is washed from the road during the sum m er rains. I t has no good qualities as a road tm ildlng m aterial except durlngfthe dryest days of Summer. Every rain, even In summer, converts these places in to mud holes; and in the spring, when the fro s tjs coming out of the ground, these sections of road become alm ost Im­passable.

A communication was read"from the E a s t Jorsey Coast W ater company, relative to the extension of their- w ater mains west of Prospect avenue on'“certain streets. The le tte r set forth th a t a petition would be cir­culated among the residents of the section designated, and If a sufficient num ber of connections were assured, they would wil. lingly extend their m ains. —

CONCERNING PIANOS,I can now have a piano specially made to order

for you, just thu thing for sea shore use. Tbe principal trouble of pianos altng the coast are ruBty strings, split sounding boards, loose ribs and sticking bey sand action. I have been tuning 15years, i t of them in ABbuiy Park, and I know pretty well by this time what is beat In a piano and what to reject, particularly along this eojst One of theae specially made pianos I cold last week on Munroe avenue. Tbe uayerleftlt to me. I put in copper base strings, no rust. I had bridges, soundboard and ribe screwed aa well as glued, no giving away there. A specially bal­anced action and light touch key board wad put in and a five year maker’s guarantee over all in­sures this piano" above anything you can buy. The price T Oh! *160. *17B, $2()0, any old price. I don't make my living by bkllino pianos, I am a tuner—do very well, so don’t have to rob you when you buy. Why not come and see this piano, ^squares for sale SfO to *26—pretty^gaod. too. -

HOW THE MACHINE IS OPERATED.

Tlie work Is simple and easy; thomachlno Is turned to tha right ana to tho lelt, back and forth, about half way around each tlm ei for from 6 to 12 minutes, according to the requirements of the clothes y6u are washing; Ton to twelve minutes washes the worst soiled garments perfectly clean.

six sheets, or clothes to th a t amount.As the tub Is revolved back and orth,

the garments are tossed and tumbled and rubbed and scrubbed In a whirlpool of mov Ing water. The rubbing loosena.the dirt and the water rinses and washes I t out by being forced back and forth through tbe fibres of tbe clothes. Many washers have been made tha t rubbed the garments, and others th a t moved tho water, but It is the combination of both th a t makes a success­ful washer. >

WRINGERS.We have a great variety, a t prices rang­

ing, according to the quality, from one dollar u p , but In this line, like any other, tbe best Is the cheapest. Onr high-grade BALL-BEARING Wringers are named af ter our Washer, “1800.”

S t. P a trick was In splendid hum or yester- day*.‘ He had pirobhbly attended the bu r­lesque m instrel performance tho previous n igh t In the opera house and become so In­fected w ith the fun th a t reigned suprem e for a tim e as to io rg e f entirely to kick up the row th a t he la credited w ith m aking usually on March 17. Be th a t as i t may, the~day was untiBualiy^lhe—a clear sky and b righ t sunshine. Inducing many people to spend some time outdoors. A lthough the atmosphere was quite pool, i t was o f the bracing, invigorating kind.

. * *In^harmony w ith thoday madepromfnentf

becaude of Ireland’s patron sa in t having once upon a tim e driven all the snakes and toads from th a t fa ir island into the. sea, {according to the fable), the beach o rchestra yesterday played Irish a irs about every o ther number, and the m usicians wore ~tffee sham rock leaf on the lapel of the ir coats and shirtw aist—one of theplayera beingayoung lady.

* * *L et us repeat for the ‘steenth tim e th a t

the sunparlor registers a re not to be used by the regu lar 865-days-in-the-year residents. They are provided for visitors only. No fa u lt w hatever would be foundw ithperm a-

let th a t end it. Some of the silly youths and sillier girls of thia town have w i t te n whatj they call sm art things on the registers a f te r the ir names th a t they-ought to be ashamed of, provided, of course, they havea spark of m o ies ty or common sense about them . The registers have served a good purpose from the tim e they were first used, b u t the ir pur­pose and in ten t Is not to have w ritten on the ir pages a lot of nonsense by d parcel of fooUsh upstarts and creatures under age. Gentlemen and ladies never do Buch things. Owing to the abuse of th e registering priv­ilege by home residents, the pier sunparlor reg ister Is filled and another will have to be provided a t considerable expense.

* • *The hab it of registering as having come

from some d istan t c ity by local people is an­other reprehensible practice. This trick is not only practiced by home people, b u t in some Instances visitors a re guilty of the of­fence. A young woman who registered a t one of the parlors w ithin a few days gave a New Jersey town as her home place, ‘ when It is known for a certa in ty th a t she resides in Brooklyn.

* * *BoyB and youths create too much d istu rb­

ance og the Asbury avenue pavilion. They race about on the upper deck o f the pa­vilion, over chairs, settees and everything else, creating a racket th a t is anything b u t p leasant to people s ittin g in the sunparlor, especially when the music is playing. If the boys cannot behave like civilized beings on

thB-paVllion they ought n o t ’ be~ allowed there a t all.

The ocean tore aw ay nearly all the piling th a t supported the railw ay, and workmen did the rest. The beach Is now entirely free of all obstructions from Lilla- gore’s to the Ross pavilion.

exceptions to the reference made to Cook­man avenue in Thursday’s “Timely Topics.’■ Thore was no intention to belittle Mattlson avenue one iota or to detract from its im­portance as a business streot. Mattlson ave­nue is a thorough business street. I t has within its two blocks ail onr banks, express and telegraph offices, our postoffice, and the biggest and most complete, printing estab­lishment on this part of the coast or in this portion of the state—the P ress prlntery. Other large business places we might men* tlsn, but this Isn't the “puff” column. Dear me, why all the travel from tha railroad station goes up and down Mattison avenue. I f you don’t believe it look a t 'th e holes in the sidewalk In front of the Keator block and the S. A. building?-

A ride over the roads in Monmouth county a t present demonstrates the fact th a t th e highways a re in the w orst condition they have been for years. From every section comes the same story—deop, sticky m ud— and a t some points i t is said to be absolutely impossible fo ra team to pulj a load. The conditions are ju s t the sam e In th e back par fa o f the countryos tHey are fn^fiesKore towns anjl localities.

P a rt of this unsatisfactory s ta te of affairs is no d o u b t due to the w eather th is spring, b u t the foundation of the bad roads lies In

practiced. Some timo ago there was a heavy snowfall, which cam e when th e re was a deep frost in the ground. W hen the snow m elted i t was ground up with the clay and d irt of tho roads, and ju s t as the roads were beginning to d ry up ‘a trifle there cam e another fall of snow which made them even worse than they were before. Some of this snow still rem ains a t the sides of the roads in m any places w here the road Is shaded by trees, and i t feeds the roads' with w ater and keeps them in a bad con­dition. This was noticeable by a party th a t made the trip to Ulontwla and re tu rn la st night.

control say th a t it is impossible to g e t team s a t any o ther season of the year, and th a t If tho work on the roads is not done In the fall it will not be done a t all. W hen clay and gravel is p u t on the roads In the fall It does not have a chance to beconie worked down and packed before freezing w eather sets in, and consequently the w orst places in the roads in the spring are those where the most work was dona the fall before. '•

I t Is also the custom of the road overseers in many places to plow up the roads under their control in the fall and to throw the earth from the gutters in the middle of the road. I t is in the places where th is is done th a t the w orst roads are to be found in the spring. The m aterial dug ou t of th e g u t­ters a t the side of the road Is usually a com­post of dead grass, leaves, and th e worn out- road m ateria l which Is washed from the road during the sum m er rains. I t has no good, qualities as a road building m aterial except during the dryest days of summer. Every rain, even in summer, converts these places into mud holes; and iji the spring, when the frost is coming o u t o f the ground, these sections of. road become alm ost im­passable.

Asbury P ark streets, a lthough they are made of be tte r m aterial than some of th a t above described, are not in t£erconflition this spring th a t.ie desirable. „_T.o..DrdtaJ;liia.take a bicycle trip over any avenue, or go in a wagon, and the resu lt o f the frost, snow and ra in will be very evident. S treets that-were4mprovod_last-year-or^the-pr^vl-ous year are not in tho shape they ought to ba for newly m ade streets, and when the Weather is-more open and settled there will be plenty of work for the city scraper and road roller. __________

Upon investigation it was found th a t 91 per cent, of those who had used the tria l bottle had received such benefit from i t th a t they purchased large size bottles of their druggists. v

CONCERNING PIANOS*I can now have a piano specially made to order

for you, just the thing for eea shore use. The principal trouble of pianos along the coast are rusty strings, split sounding boards, loose ribs and sticking keys and action. I have been tuning 15 years, 11 of them In Asbury Park, and I know pretty well by this time what Is best in a piano and what to rejecr, particularly along this coast One of these specially made pianos I sold last .week on Munroe avenue. TImjcoyer left it to me. I put In copper base strings* no rust. I had bridges, soundboard and riba screwed as well as glued, no giving awar there. A rpeclally bal­anced action and light touch key bdard was but in and a live year maker's guarantee over all In­sures this piano above anything you can buy. The price ? Ohl $150, •17B, $200-, any old price. I don't make my living by sk luno pianos, I am a tuner-^d© very well, so don’t have to rob you when you buy. Why not come ahd see this piano. 4 squares for sale $10 to $2S—prett^good. too.
