On his return he was for two ytaxs.assist ant engineer on the engineering force of the New York Central Here he did a great deal of bridge and line work. In 1876 he took up his permanent residence in South Amboy and commenced the study of law liLthe office of Charles Morgan.

He studied for foltr years and in 1880 was admitted to the bar after very successful examination. After admission to the bar he commenced his practice in Perth Amboy, of which he has been a valued resident ever since. He has built up a lucrative business that is continually growing. He has the confidence of every one who knows him and thoroughly deserves the good opinions he has gained. In 1886 and 1887 he was candidate for the Assembly on the Democratic ticket.

His opponent, John Ten Broeck, was a life long resident of Perth Amboy, and the district was strongly Republican, but Homaiann made a splendid fight each time and though he was defeated, he cut clown the majorities very considerably. He has held several city offices notably city clerk, superintendent of the public schools and city surveyor. The last position he still holds. Mr. Charles Hommann is essentially a practical man.

He always looks at the right side of a question and has made mar- vellously few mistakes. He Is of a genial disposition and Is entirely without assumed dignity. He Is the personal friend of every one in his district without regard to party distinctions. For the past two years he has been a mem- of the Board of Freeholders, and there ias made a record for honesty and ability hat will go a long way toward securing his election as Assemblyman. His thorough of the road law makes him par- Icularly valuable, as he is a recognized au- He Is of a magnetic personalty and his anvas Is winning him scores of friends and otes.

Perth Amboy should feel proud of er son. He has ably filled every office he as ever held and the Assembly will be no xception. He can be relied upon to make Middlesex county a splendid representative. Action Xast Nlgbt. An open meeting of the City Glob was held in the Assembly Room last night.

Dr. Henry R. Baldwin presided and "Professor Lonls Bevier acted as secretary. When the meeting was called to order Dr. Baldwin stated that the object of the City Club was to disassociate partisanship from municipal affairs.

He said that the clnb was formed by two or three gentlemen whose property had suffered from depredation by hoodlums. In concluding his opening.remarks he said, "I propose to vote for the Democratic nominees." Rev. Dr P. T. Pockman was then introduced and said that a child born in this country had to wait 21 years before he could vote.

"What are you going to do with foreigners. They have no true conception of the affairs of this country. They are ignorant and the largest percentage of the purchasable votes comes from foreigners. The subject assigned to John Ayres was "Tbe purification of the Second Ward." Mr. Ayres spoke of the condition of Lyle Brook and nearly in the same breath said that he himself sewered into tbe He also told how his olfactory nerves bad suffered in passing the Island farm down the river.

After he had got warmed up he said that he thought he was in a Methodist prayer meeting, and finally concluded his remarks by drilling back to the subject of LyleBrook Dr. Duryea spoke on the "Separation of Partisan Politics from Self Government." Tbe doctor said he waa a Democrat and voted that ticket every time. When any man or combination of men do anything wrong they should be put down What we want Is pure government, so that we will know where our money goes. Ex-Judge Strong was the next speaker, and his subject was "Grand Juries." He tbat if he was to define the scope of the City Club he would say that it was to take charge and suppervlse the city officers who collect and expend the city's money. "Practically they collect money for themselves and party and we all pay lor the benefit of a few who get protection from the Sheriff's office, the County Clerk's office and the Grand Jury." He then spoke at length on the case of Harry Lane.

James Neilson was then introduced and read a long article on the proposed Landing Bridge. He also said that there were ru more that a large sum of money had been paid to some officials for the granting of the electric railroad franchise and referred the man to the Board of managers of the Ci Club for investigation. Louis Bevier then made a speech in which he delivered what he called a toast to tbe Board of Freeholders. His arguments were based on the yearly report of that Board He claimed tbat tbe Sheriff wasted much light, arid insinuated that there was collu slon between the members of the Board and con tractors. Colonel J.

W. Newell, who waa present, addressed the President and said that there had never been any collusion between the Gas Company and the county Board. Dr. Scott was the last speaker and said that the City Club was going fo make a gallant fight against bribery at he poles but that farther than this the members woulJ take no organized part ID the election next Tuesday. He said In effect: The City Ctub is organized to separate State and national politics from city and county affairs.

We disclaim any Intention of Intprferlng In the coming electtqn which is of State and national importance dealing with the Legislature and with Congress, and wlih which the City Club has no concern." Tbe speaker then took up the charges of corruption in the Board of Freeholders and worked up to the climax of the meeting, very impressively. He explained 2 i 1 Burglars Blow Open a Safe at Amboy. Burglars blew open the safe at the Perth Amboy post office early this morning- between the hoars of 8 and 4 o'clock secured money and stamps to the value of about $2,100. The post office is at one of the points formed by the junction of New Brunswick avenue and Sooth and State streets. The job was very evidently the work of professional cracksmen.

There is no evidence that they forced their way into the office, and it is probable that they used skeleton keys And entered by the door. The safe was very skillfully blown open'. A hole was drilled into the outer door just above the'combination. A heavy charge 61 powder was then pat in and the whole front of the door was blown out, together with the lock. Tbe gypsum filling of the safe scattered all over the room by the force of the explosion.

The burglars rifled tbe cash and stamp drawers, securing $200 in money and $1,900 in stamps. They must have harried in their work, for they overlooked the money order cash drawer, which contained several hundred dollars. The noise made by the blowing open of the safe gave the alarm, but before the police? man on the beat reached the office the burglars had gone. He notified Postmaster Cornelias Con very, who at once made an In vestigation. No clue to tbe thieves could be discovered.

This morning a bottle of sweet oil that had evidently been used for drilling was found in the field to the side of the It is supposed tbe burglars made off in that direction to some place where they had a rig in waiting. So far as could be learned this morning not the slightest clue to tbe thieves exists. Before the post office burglary the same crooks attempted to break into the store of Goldberg at the corner of State and Washington streets. The Goldbergs conduct a grocery and money brokerage for the Poles and Huns. The brokerage office adjoins the grocery.

An attempt was made to breai the safe in this, but dog in the frightened them off. They got into the office by means of duplicate keys. This seems to show that the crooks were acquainted with Perth Amboy and had spent some time in preparing for the job. BY A fittJL FR0I THE FIELD. Rutgers Beats University of North Carolina.

Some Interesting Facts and Figures that Are Undeniable. Comparisons are usually odious, bat comparisons of the present and past administrations are not so, that Is, not to The following from a New York journal of established reputatation and correct principles is iBost applicable to present argument: Er President Harrison made a speech In New York City last evening In favor of party which elected him to the Chief Magistracy of the country.

There are some which tell very strongly against him and his party that he did not fairly meet. Mr. Cleveland's preceded his left him a surplus of $103,000,000. In the first year of Harrison's administration tbe surplus was "reduced to $3,343,000 Against this was a charge of about $40,000,000 for the sinking Fand, besides other unpaid obligations. 'At the end of bis term there was an impending deficiency.

Mr. Cleveland's term came to an end the net gold In the treasury was at the end of Harrison's it was $103,000,000. Besides this, treasury notes to a large amount bad been issued under the Sherman law which Harrison signed. There was also a charge on gold in the treasury, and so threatened the nation's finances as to cause the panic of 1893 and demand a special session of Congress for the repeal of the law. By the operation of the McKInley act, whlph a Republican Congress passed and Mr.

Harrison signed, the receipts of the Govern ment for the fiscal year 1893 fell short of tbe expenditures by $72,000,000. 4n Mr. Cleveland's term bonds were redeemed to the amount of $182,000,000 in Mr. Harrison's term the redemptions amounted to $147,000,000. In Mr.

To the Editor of the TIMES DEAR have just had my attention called to an article In your issue of Wednesday evening, In which it is said that I was confined to my office by my partner, B. Adams, and as the Impression which would be obvious to a casuaTreader is that I was confined by force, I desire to state that such is not the case.

As you say, "too mucd liquor was at the bottom of the whole affair," and I would add that the liquor which caused the trouble was the prime and only factor In thejaccldent, which befell me on the evening of Thursday last, and that the only part taken in the deplorable affair by my partners in business, was that of an Interested friend and that he did not either lock me In the office or escort to other methods of favor In his efforts to keep me away from the barroom to which I was inclined to return. As a matter of justice to one who is worthy the kindest consideration at my hands, I respectfully request that you publish the foregoing. JAMBS J. BE ALL. ENGLISHTOWN.
