competition in plans for monument
for Walter Scott in Scotland, and man
who was IA simple carpenter once, MI.
Kemp. won the prize, and the plans
were accepted for that monument that
stands now the tribute of Scotland
love to this matchless genius. Why did
he succeed? AS he passed along the
road one day "A dusty carpenter boy,
gentleman driving in his carriage saw
he was tired and stopped his horse, and
the great man said, Get up and ride
with me. " So he became acquainted
with Sir Walter Scott and learned to
love and admire him. And it was one
of the Inspirations of his life that led
him to become "A master architect more
than "A carpenter. And when they threw
the competition open to tha world, this
man drew the matchlcss monument
that now stands there incarnated in
marble. Why? Because his heart was
in it. Other men could not compete
with him, because he had put his soul
into it. The highest success in life is
that work in which man can thus put
his soul, his heart. The heart, after
all, is worth more than mere success
and mere dollars and cents.
Let us at least hope that our children
will live to see the day that there shall
in deed and truth be grand Court of
Honor in the midst of the worlds bust

New Trial Refused.

The Supreme court on Thursday de-
cided adversely the appeal of Wesley
Warner, of Mount Holly, from the con-
vlction of murder in the first degree OF
Lizzie Peak. 1t was held in the decision
that the main ground for the appeal was
the failure of the court to ask Warner
why sentence should not be pronounced
upon him. The asking of prisoner why
sentence should not be passed upon him
was held to be mere matter of form
without substantial advantage to the
prisoner, and the omission to pronounce
the question was decided to have done
hun no practical injustice. For this rea-
son his conviction is upheld. Counsel
for Warner gave notice that the case will
be appealed to the court of Errors and
Appeals, which does not meet until Feb
ruary, and which will probably not rem
der decision until June.

Trouble at the Carpet MIN.

The doors of the Burlington Carpet Mill
were closed on Wednesday evening, and
business will not be resumed until some
financial questions are settled.
On Monday, four mortgages on real es-
tate and chattels were filed in the clerk s
office. Two, which went in at seven
o'clock in the morning, were executed to
Samuel L. Tomlinson, trustee. One was
for $96,61857 ON the Mount Holly plant,
the other for $40, 1878 on the Stanwick
plant. In the afternoon Messrs. w. x j.
Sloane, of New York, filed mortgage of
800. 900 on the Mount Holly plant and
$4,000 on Stanwick.
The mortgages given to Mr.. Tomlinson
were to secure all creditors outside of
Messrs. Sloane.
When the mill company was organized,
James Dunlap was the owner of 81 shares
of stock, Messrs. w. & ]. Sloane, of New
York, owning 40 shares. 1t has been
stated that the Sloanes sold Dunlap their
stock All carpets disposed of by the lat
ter went through the New York house.
Recently, it is reported, there was some
friction between the two houses.
A meeting was held in New York yes
terday, the result of which we have not
learned. Mr. Dunlap estimates that the
Mount Holly and Stanwick plants are
worth at least 1926, 900, which includes
about $4,000 worth of stock on hand.
The recorded claims against the entire
concern are about $245,OOO 1t is not at all
unlikely that the Sloanes will take the
property and reorganize the affair.
The Union National Bank, of Mount
Holly, has been connected, by rumor,
with this transaction, and many wild
stories have been circulated, one being
that the first securities given were to that
institution to secure loans of large
amounts The fact is that the mortgages
were given to Mr.. Tomlinson as Trustee
for the benefit of all creditors, save Messrs
Sloane, who held mortgages as shown
above. The Union National Bank holds
claims of $4,000 each against Stanwick
and Mount Holly. For these loans it is
amply secured.
