POLITICIANS’ CLUB PROTESTS AGAINST BLUE-COATED OGRE > Policeman Stands Before Door and Warns Visitors That There's Gambling Inside. ‘The peade, quiet and dignity of the! | Mutual Independent Democratic Club | at No. 137 West Forty-first Street, where, it Is said, the older dignitaries of the party gather to meet the bud- ~ ding members of Democracy, has been threatened. The threat is per- sonified in one six-foot bluecoat, who stands in front of the club, takes the mames of those who enter, their Gresees, and warns them that the) building they are about to visit har-! bors a gambling game. | This is the first snag that the club, which was organized under auspl- lows circumstances in May, 1914, to + Promote “social intercourse and dis- 5 cuss the current politics of the day,’ has encountered. Objection to the _ Snag was made in the Supreme Court to-day, when officers of the institu- | tion asked Justice Gavegan to grant) = an injunction restraining Police Com- mies ot Woods, Capt. William y of the Twenty-third Precinct a Inspector Morris of the Third District from interfering with that Social intercourse to promote which the club was formed. * The fight is being waged by Michael E. Padden, President of the club, who was Water Kegister unde: Mayor McClellan, and also by Henr; L. Sampson of No. 1790 Clinton Ave- nue, the Bronx, who Is Secretary of the local school board of the Twenty- fifth district. Other prominent Demo- * erats, who likewise feel that the club members are being offended by the presence of the policeman, have given ‘4 their sanction to the legal proceed- ings. According to the papers, the police have demanded that the club house be closed, giving as the reason that poker, pinochle and other games of chance are being played in the club house. Protest against this action by the police was made by the officers of the club, but of no avail. The polico continued to walk at will through the ‘club house, ask pertinent ques- tions of members and otherwise med- die with the purely harmonious at- mosphere of the place. President Padden even went so far as to invite . into the club house to it it, so that he might see for that no game is conducted In lomOf any Jaw. However, Capt. ds said to have‘declined th 2p pest tion. ; President Padden explains the games: “Tm the course of association within the club, games are invariably played , by the membe: friendly artangement, but the no fund or ‘kitty’ collected, and the are not encouraged to net for the clu The conditions prevall in any in the city, and any officer is welcome to visit and the place.

USES TYPHOID GERMS TO CHEAT HOUSEWIVES Police After Clever Swindler Who Poses as Water Department In- spector and Sells Filters. Water Commissioner Williams has enlisted the aid of the pplice to run down a fluent, good looking young man who is working a brand new flim-flam game on the housewives of Harlem and the Bronx. The only ap- pilances he uses in his trade aro a satchel of water filters, sells, the uniform of an inspector of the Water Department, and a giant magnifying glass with which he ex- hibits a stock collection of typhoid germs he carries around on a piece of absorbent cotton. The protests of housekeepers not in| the mood to buy water filters, cape- cinily as the contrivance, a wire screen with a fine mesh and rubber band, does not look like a regular fil- ter at all, are quickly overcome when the impostor flashes his an “inspector of Installation of the “filter Before attempting which he dge and as orders the le the “in- spector” gives a demonstration with his side line of typhold germs that ‘usually scares his victim into a state where she buys at least two of the supposed filters. + on Maine Corporation.
