brated at their home on 9Th street, last
evening.
They were married June 25th, 1928,
by Rev. E. Kent in Salem county, N. j.
During the fifty years of their married

to them seven Of whom are living.
Rev. J. A. B. Wilson ofAsbury, made a
short address and was followed by pray
er by Rev. A. T. Scott, after which DR..
Field made short address. The
Dr's golden wedding occurred two years
ago.
A large company of relations and
friends were present, and altogether it
was an enjoyable occasion.
An abundant repast was prepared.
The old people seem to be vigorous
and in perfect health. May they see
their Diamoned wedding.
At the Foundry
last evening speeches were made by
Messrs. Fox, Williams, Wells, Hersey
and Leibrandt. Mr.. Wells made a
passing allusion to the letter of Mr..
Day in the REPUBLICAN, saying that the
people had seen what he had done, and
he would leave it to them to judge; and
that he not would enter into personal
controversy in regard to the matter.

The ''POttering'' Investigation.

1t is the intention of the Potter com
mittee to go on with the Florida part Of
the investigation, probably Thursday, as
Mr.. Noyes has requested that his tes-
timony be taken at the earliest con-
venience of the committee, as he is
anxious to arrange his affairs and re-
turn to France, after visit to Ohio.
He has furnished for the eopmittee. !
list Of witnesses he is anxious to have
summoned. The CROSS examination Of
Mr.. Pitkin will be continued after the
Florida witness; at least such was the
intention Of the committee to-day.
Mr.. Kellogg and one or two others
will then be examined, and the COM
mittee then expect to close proceedings
until after the return of the Louisiana
subcommittee. 1t is not expected that

called on Tuesday for copies ofall tele-
grams in reference to the Florida and
Louisiana election in November and

Mrs. jerks was further briefly ex-
amined, but without eliciting anything
of particular interest. She did not
bring the documents which she prom
ised, and she very saucily intimated
that she had not made up her mind
whether she would bring them. Mr..
Boynton, the correspondent of the Gin
cinnati Gazette, continued his testi-
mony as to his conversation with the
President on the subject of Anderson's
appointment to Office, his impressions
now Of the subject being somewhat
different from those entertained by
him shortly after the conversation.
He next gave the points of a CONVEX
sation with Mr.. Justice Harlan, (whc
was one of the visiting statesman to
New Orleans,) and who, recording to
Boynton, fully expected that his efforts
in arranging matters in New Orleans
would aid in his appointment to the
Supreme Bench.
