A THIEF GETS $50 IN MONEY
Entering the House of John
Sfremme. Thief Makes q
Successful Eaul.

At the home of John Stremme, No.
143 Bank street Thursday night there
was company which kept the family
awake until twelve O'Clock, and i'm
mediately afterward they retired. At
half-past one o'clock Mrs. Stremme
was awakened by footsteps, and think
ing it her son who is something OF a
somnambulist, she called to him. The
boy did not answer and she arose from
her bed and went to the head OF the
stairs and saw & man hurrying down
stairs, running through the hall, and
boiling out of the front door. Invests
cation proved it to be q thief, and
that $50 of Mr.. Stremme's money was
gone from his pantaloons pocket.
Mr.. Stremme is an engineer on the
West Jersey railroad, and when he
came home Thursday he had in his
pantaloons pocket about fifty dollars.
| When he retired he left his clothing
near the bed. The burglar who visited
the house effected an entrance by rails
ing a window in the sitting room. A
writing desk in this apartment was
overhauled by him, but nothing was
taken. Then the fellow went up stairs
andransacked the clothes press. From
there he went to the bureaus il the
different rooms, and examined all
through the contents. After this he
entered Mr.. and Mrs Stremmes room
and carried off his money.
Officers Campbell and Garrison were
Immediately sent for and they repaired
to the house and made careful in
vestigation of the premises, but the
thief left no clue by which lie could be
traced. Whoever the person was he
must have known something about
the premises and the fact that Mr..
Stremme had money, for he made q
determined search for it, and seemed
to care for nothing else. Mrs. Stremme
is not able to give any description of
the man, as he went out of sight like
flash, and she was naturally quite
much frightened. After going out of
the front door the theft jumped over
the partition fence of the porch, and
it is thought ran through the yard ad-
joining and made his escape by Wal
nut street.

Then Mr.. Trenchard brought up
another little matter which attracted
considerable argument. It was in
reference to allowing the use OF the
Court House to any persons. II will
be remembered that this privilege was
taken away from all at meeting held
IN Port Elizabeth, last summer. and
afterwards reconsidered and amended
to read THAT anybody wanting the
use OF the Court House can have it.n
Mr. Trenchard stated that the majority
of the Public Building Committee had
refused to allow society of women
the use of the Court House on Sun
days for religious services. Under the
resolution as it appears upon the min
utes Mr.. Trenchard did not think the
committee had any right to refuse, and
he asked for the sense of the meeting.
Finally Mr.. Berkinshaw moved that
the resolution upon the minutes De re-
clnded, but it was lost by tie vote,
and religious services will likely be
held IN the Temple of Justice at an
early date.
Mr.. Townsend then brought up the
Dividing Creek bridge matter and
moved that a committee be appointed
TO build new draw bridge there. Mr..
White moved to amend, that COM
mittee repair the old bridge. The
amendment was carried.
A motion was made that the three
nearest Freeholders constitute the
committee and it was SO ordered. This
throws the work upon Mr.. Richmond,
Mr. Townsend and Mr.. Hand. Mr..
Townsend refused to serve, and he
tated that acting under advice from
the State Chancellor, the people of
that section would now probably take
such legal action as would have the
| bridge moved, as an obstruction to q
navigable stream.
Mr.. Harris made a motion which
provoked considerable discussion. It
was that the Board should adjourn to
meet at the Aims House on the Sd
Wednesday in April at ten o'clock.
| The motion finally prevailed, by vote
of IL to 5.
On motion the Board adjourned.

rook up the Celfcfion.

AT Trinity M. E. Church q prayer
meeting was held Friday night, and as
all good Methodist meetings end with
a collection, this service was about to
close in that way. The collectors were
just about finishing their work when a
certain Freeholder, who had been
doing, awakened, and knowing his
duties, seized basket and started af-
ter the pennies The fact that no
pennies dropped in the basket, and the
smiles of the people led him to look
around, when he discovered that some
bod y had preceded him in collecting.

The Trick Works we.

A trick that seems will never wear
itself out, was played by couple of
worthless tramps on Saturday, near
the Central depot. The trick is for
these men to picture themselves as
miserable as possible, and then drop a
small piece of bread in the mud, and
pick it up eagerly, and then devour it
as If they were half starved. The sight
touched an elderly couple coming from
the train, an1 the trAnps were given
money. 1t is an old gag, and it evil
IDENTIFY still works well.

THE BIG SCHEME.
Proposed Con sOidatiOn of the
Reading Raj road System
in South Jersey.

hGaOknS HShl FOuu SySachk
in South Jersey.
The Directors of the various rail
roads operated by the Philadelphia
and Reading system in South Jersey
have for some time past been consid-
ering the advisability of merging and
consolidating the roads under one
management. Several preliminary
meetings have been held for the
furtherance of the scheme, and the
stockholders of several of the roads
are to hold final meeting on the Goth
inst. to make definite action in the
matter. 1t is hardly probable. how
ever, that there will be any material
opposition to the plan. The projec-
tors claim that the adoption of this
scheme will reduce expenses and facili
tate business.
The roads included in the proposed
consolidation are the following: The
Philadelphia and Atlantic City Rail-
road, the Williamstown and Delaware
River Railroad, the Glassboro Rail
road. the Camden, Gloucester and
Mount Ephraim Railway, and the
Kaighn's Point Terminal Railroad
The main lines of these roads aggre.
gate about IS miles, and the aggregate
assessed valuation of the railroad
properties is almost 1900, 900, in addi-
ton to which the tangible personal
property used in State commerce by
the Reading Road, as lessee, is assessed
at 1891, 1852.
IL The longest of the roads concerned
in the merger is the Philadelphia and
Atlantic City, the main line of which
is about "a miles in length, running
from Camden to Atlantic City, through
Haddon, Centre, Gloucester and Wins
low townships, Camden county; and
Egg Harbor townships, Atlantic
county. The capital stock of the road
is 81, 100000, and the assessed value of
the road property is $1,052, 1913.
The Williamstown and Delaware
River Railroad connects Atco, in
Waterford township, Camden county,
with Giassboro, in Gloucester county,
distance of about Is miles, running
through Waterford and Winslow town
ships, Camden county, and Monroe
and Glassboro townships, Gloucester
county. The road propertytis assessed
at $15S,043, and the capital stock of
the road is $4,000.
The Camden, Gloucester and Mt.
Ephraim Railroad has length of over
four miles and runs between Camden,
Gloucester City and Mount Ephraim,
in Centre township, Camden county.
The authorized capital of the company
is $64, 500, and the assessed value of
the property is $72,931.
The Glassboro Railroad has length
of about half a mile and connects Tenn
peranceville, in Glassboro township,
Gloucester county, with the Williams
town and Delaware River Railroad.
The capital stock of the road is $1,000,
and the assessed valuation of the prop
erty is $11,S05.
The Kaighn's Point Terminal Rail-
road is the terminus of the system in
Camden, and is about three-quarters
of mile in length.
1t is expected that the consideration
of the matter will be completed before
the commencement of the summer
travel. There are a number of i'm
provements which it is proposed to
make as soon as the plan is perfected
These improvements will include some
extensions, putting down new rails, etc.

New York Stock Exchange.

NEW YORK, July 1O.-The stock market to-
DAY reflected the growing confidence that the
presidents session at Chicago VIII be able TO
cone with all difficulties which may come up
before them for adjustment, and that harmony
in the northwest is only matter of time. The
market was quite strong throughout. Rumors
that the Burlington and Northern would pc pur-
chased nv a syndicate with a view to getting them
out of the way as a rate disturber, had a stimu
lating effect upon speculation. Burlington, At
Gibson and ST. Paul lead the advance The sugar
trust also became quite and felt the stimulus
.Eudee Barrctt's decision, moving up "a per
cent Alton however, began to feel the effect
of its policy and sold at "a loss of per cent.
Heavy realizing in the afternoon caused thG
market TO sag, but the close shows material
gain in most Of the list.
