Haekettstown's Unpopular Postmaster
The people of Hackettstown are III a
state Of mind over the new postmaster
the department at Washington has given
them.
They first wanted the present incum-
bent to serve out his term, but when that
idea was found impracticable they urged
the appointments of James j. Rushing, a
well known party worker, or Lewis I.
Salmon, a veteran of the late war. The
Republican county and State committee
men endorsed Rushing, and then q big
petition was gotten up for him, and Mayor
Wade certified that it represented every
business man in the town and nine tenths
of the Republican voters.
Besides that, the signatures of General
w. J.. Sewell, ex-Congressman B. +.
Howey, Garrett A. Hobart, George A.
Halsey and ex-senator Voorhees, were pro-
cured.
Naturally there was a row when news
came that Levi B. Gibbs had been ap-
pointed to the place. 1t is claimed that he
is not a resident of the town and has no
right to the office. He is seventy-three
years of age.

An Elizabeth Ghost.

1t was reported yesterday that a
veritable ghost had been seen on George
street, Elizabeth, opposite the lime kiln,
at a few minutes past two a. m. Two
residents of that street, who had come in
from New York on the owl train, saw the
spectre and it made them shiver for a
moment.
They thought, however, that the ghost
made a little more noise than spirits
generally do. Their courage returned
with this discovery and each gathered a
handful of cobblestones and crossed the
street.
Seeing them approach thus armed, the
ghost, with an agile movement, vaulted
the fence surrounding Willow Grove
Cemetery and was soon out of sight,
doubtless at home among the other spir-
it's quietly resting there.
No clue could be discovered as to the
identity of the midnight marauder in
white.

Vice Chancellor Pitney, at Camden, has
just filed an opinion that may be of some
interest to constables. A constable held
an execution issued out of a Justices
court against a corporation that was sub
se%quently declared insolvent. The con-
stable went to the, factory of the defend
ant and attempted to levy upon the
goods of the defendant. He found the
place locked up, but without attempting
to force an entrance the constable
looked through a broken glass and made
an incomplete inventory of the goods in
the factory. The Vice Chancellor holds
that the attempt to make a levy was a
failure, and created no lien upon the goods
as against the official receiver of this
Court. He further holds that in the alb
sence of a voluntary acceptance by a
defendant in execution of the posi-
ton of bailee to the sheriff
or constable holding the writ of the
goods proposed to be levied IN, there can
be no valid levy unless the officer shall
take actual possession of the goods or as
sert such dominion over them as will make
him a trespasser in the absence of the
writ. A writ of execution from a Justices
court does not bind the goods of the de-
PENDANT until an actual or constructive
levy be made. A bare inventory without
levy is insufficient to bind the goods.

bids fair to stretch over another century.
Simon Cameron was born in Lancaster coun-
ty, Pa, March 8, 1899, and after getting a
fair education and learning the printer
trade, he edited Democratic paper in
Doylestown, and afterwards in Harrisburg.
In 1845 he was elected to the United States
senate to serve the four years unexpired term
of James Buchanan, who had resigned.
When the slavery issue was made proni-
nent in 1876 he became Republican, and
in 1857 was elected again to the United States
senate. At the Chicago convention Of 1860
he received fifty votes on the first ballot for
nominee for president, but thereafter ''threw
his strength" for Abraham Lincoln, by whom
Mr. Cameron was made secretary Of war.
Jan. IL. 1862, he resigned this place and was
made minister to Russia, but returned the
next November, re-entered political life and
in 1896 was again chosen senator. In 1878 he
was reelected, but resigned in favor of his
son, James Donald Cameron, now senator
from Pennsylvania. Has brother James, born
March l, 1901, was killed at Bull Run while
serving as colonel. The family, both in Scot

The Newhau Brothers, Who Have Gone

The game of cricket has not been entirely
snuffed out in America by baseball, though
the American game is SO popular that cricket
necessarily is obscured. In Philadelphia the
celebrated Newhall family Of cricketers have
done much for England's favorite sport; in
deed, nearly thirty years ago they had be-
come quite celebrated cricketers. There are
ten brothers of the name, and they have all
taken in different times important parts on

something pitcher is always proud of If be
can accomplish il during season. This man
can hit high or low ball, and will seldom let
go at one out Of his reach. Fielders never
know how TO play for him, as he is just as
likely TO hit TO right rs no is to left field. Like
Arson, Brouthers would remain on the field
all day hitting, if he could get some one to
toss him the ball He swings his body, and
when he does catch the ball square 10 man
scan drive one farther.
Roger Connor, the first baseman of the
New York club, ranks with Arson and
Brouthers, and, like them, has led the League.
Conner is a left hand batsnan, but can turn
around when against left hand pitcher and
hit successfully right handed. Conner is one
of the sluggers of the League, and comes next
to Brouthers as q player with high general
average.
Rogers position at the bat is something like
Brouthers', only that he bends his body over
the plate and watches the pitcher much closer;
his hitting is mostly to right field. He uses a
very heavy bnt, and ike most heavy hitters
loves to practice hitting pitched balls. The
above named men hail from country towns,
Arson from Mershalltown, Ia; Brouthers
from Wappinger Falls, n. Y, and Connor
from Waterbury, Conn. All are over six
feet in height and weigh between 210 and go
pounds when in good playing condition.
These men are all playing first base for their
respective teams. Arson and Conner have
made good records as third basemen. Tho
value of these players comes from the fact
that their hitting is not spasmodic. Day in
and day out you win find these great bats
men cracking out singles and doubles just
when most needed.
KELLY.
When it was so player could call for a
high or low ball, Arson called for high one,
Brouthers and Conner for low ones. As
shown in the cut, the prettiest position at the
bats taken by Mike Kelly, Of the Bostons,
and is much the same as Anson's. This player
has led the League one season at the bat, and
for the last ten years has been among the
leaders. Kelly bats altogether with his
wrists, and hits ball very easy. lie can hit
TO either field, and invariably hits the ball

vice-Eoger Connor-Other Batters.
Less than dozen men have attained the
distinction of becoming great batsmen, says
IL. b. Murnane in The Boston Globe 1t Is
very interesting to watch these men as they
stand at the plate. Undoubtedly the greatest
sof all these is Adrian G. Arson, captain of
the Chicago club He has been on the field
RS professional eighteen years, and was ell
ways among the leading batsmen of the coun-
try He has led that leading organization
several times, and has the best general aver
age for ten years. Arson is q scientific bat
ter and seldom strikes out. He is one of the
best sacrifice hitters in the country, and can
he counted on for timely hit
ANSoN.
Until 1876 Arson caught his bat about six
inches from the handle His position at the
plate was easy and natural standing straight
las pine tree, with his right foot crossed on
the heel Of his left, he called for high ball.
,Anson claimed that by taking hold of his bat
.up short be had better control of it when
sReeting the ball After he joined the
sChicago club in &c his father, who is a great
lover Of the game and was q good player
himself at the time the present captain was a
fschoolboy, advised his boy, as he still calls
him, to take his club like man and get the
whole force Of it on the ball The advice was
agreeable, and since then this great player
has smashed away at curves and inshoots
with his bat caught at the extreme end Of the
handle. Arson now faces the pitcher with
his heels close together, and Is one Of the best
styled men at the bat In the League.
