WALKING SPEAK-EASY.
Clarence Kerins ArFested d Satur-
day Night.

Constable Ayars, on Saturday night,
arrested young man named Clarence
Kerins, charging him with selling liquor
without a license. He was arrested
on a warrant issued out of the court of
Justice Jesse @. Davis. The complaint
was made by G. w. Shoemaker, on be-
half of theAMunicipal League. The
complaint charges Kerins with having
sold pint of liquor to one William
Smith on the third day of March.
Kerins is walking speak easy. He
carries quantities of the ardent about
bis person and retails it out by the
drink. When he was arrested Satur-
day night he had upon his person ene
quart bottle and one pint bottle filled
with bad whiskey. One empty pint
bottle indicated that he had been doing
some business Saturday night. When
he was arrested Kerins expressed him !,
self to the sheriff, as fearful of his get.
ting his name In the paper. He did not
want this to occur, as it would trouble
his mother. A man should have
thought of this before he began such
business. The young man has already
served term in the county Jail,
charged with keeping disorderly
house In Millville.

gagged all the property in the home OF
William Scull, No. 1855 Church street.
Mrs. Scull Is sister of Brewer.
The mortgage shows that everything
In the house of Mr.. Scull was placed
on the mortgage. including even the
wearing apparel of Mr.. SculL While
Brewer committed this crime, he has
no claim upon a single thing In Mr.
SOULS house, nor did he ever own a
single article mortgaged as being at
No. 1866 Church street. Mr.. Scull Is
very highly indignant over the action
of Brewer, and would do his full share
toward having him punished for his
crimes. The action of Brewer may
cost Mr.. Scull considerable money In
being compelled to prove his property.
1t is said that Brewer has left a good
many bad bills In town, the aggregate
sum being something like $4,000. 1t is
peculiar that people would have
trusted this monumental fraud, when

been full of trouble. After bis second
marriage he went up to Trenton by
advice of Judge Hoag aud, and re-
mained for two years in the State
Prison upon charge OF gamy. He
came out. He said he found his for
mer wife married, and he thought he
should have another wife This time
he took a colored woDap. She had
husband living. but this made no
difference to Leonard. Their honey
moon lasted just three W. eks, and the
rude hand of a constable interferred,
and Leonard was in Jail Thursday
afternoon Judge Hoagland thought it
best that the mach married husband
should be parted from his wife, and he
was sentenced to State Prison for two
years.
As for Priscilla Pierce, she Is in luck.
There seemed little doubt but that she
too, would go up the ro"d." She
said her first husband was living. but
he had never treated her well, and
when she met Leonard she liked him,
and she was joined in wedlock. Now
she is sorry, for the marriage was too
soon dissolved. Judge Hoagland
thought that Priscilla would be taught
lesson If she was sent to Ill for six
months, and that was the sentence iRl-
posed.

A BIG BUILDING.
working ON the Traction Com.
paBy's Car Barn.

Should this weather continue this
week out, Contractor Lsmuel P john
SON will entirely compe g the new
brick car barn for the South Jersey
Traction Company. A large force OF
men are at work and are doing a vast
amount of work every d-v Tne build
Ing itself is practically finished, and
the work OF fitting it up is going rap
Idly forward. The aisles between the
cars are pianked heavil,, aud UNDER
meath the car tracks the pits are being
solidly planked. This is great ad-
vantage from the fact that as soon as
car runs In the house, the men can
Immediately get under 1t and make
any needed repairs. A large workshop
is to be placed 10 the sou'h--ast cor
ner of the building, whereby a car can
be owe, hauled Immediately. A store
room for supplies will be placed. over
the work shope.
Outside the building the tracks are
being planked all between, the rails
and Supt. Deloury intends to have
the cars washed outside, and tbs
water will run off iato a sewer nearby.
The tracks on South avenue, In the
vicinity of the car house, will also be
planked solidly, making a splendid
driveway on South Avenue.
The new barn has ample accommo-
dations for all the cars now on hand.
and the cars that will be purchased fos
the Cedarville line. Inside the barn
will be whitewashed giving 1t clean,
light appearance.
A PIONEER reporter talked with
Superintendent Dsloury upon the
trouble that Is being experie need with
dust along the line of the city cars
He said this was matter that would
have to be taken up. The dust was
SO bad that 1t interfered with travel,
and steps would have to be taken to
do away with it. The Superintendent
thought the Company W. uId construct
large tank car, which could be pulled
over the tracks rapidly, and effectively
sprinkle the streets.
