that II was created. To produce a material

With his head hanging over the gun
vale of his boat, and partially imbedded
in the mud, Thomas Riley was found on
the flats near the forks of the creek just
above Centreton, on Thursday. In the
pocket of the dead mans clothes was a
whlskey flask, which was empty. The
supposition is that Riley became intoxi-
Gated and in attempting to get out or in
his boat, lost his balance and fell, head
first, in the soft mud.
Coroner Hibberd viewed the body and
decided not to hold an inquest as there
was no evidence of foul play.
Riley was we'll known in this county,
but has rather slipped out of memory
About ten years ago he was tried in our
courts for the murder of "Pit" Borden, OF
Burlington. The two men were playing
cards and each accused the other OF
cheating. A quarrel ensued, in which
Riley drew a knife and stabbed his COM
panion. He claimed to have committed
the deed in self-defence. but the jury
convicted him of murder in the second
degree, and he was sent to state prison
for twelve years. He served about hall
his time, being released by the Board Of
Pardons. He did not remain about Bur

We are glad to publish the fact that the
dread disease which has been in our
midst is not gaining any Roadway, but on
the contrary is rapidly decreasing, there
being but Ave cases this week, against II
week ago.
This state of affairs is undoubtedly due
to the prompt action OF the Board of
Health and the cooperation of our citi-
zens in general. Five cases in a town of
5000 inhabitants is not such a dangerous
affair, and the fact that the disease is not
rapidly spreading is a matter of great con-
graduation, especially when the health re-
ports of nearby cities are studied.
There has not been any desire to re.
press the truth about the state of affairs
on the contrary there has been every ef
fort to let the public know the facts, that
ali might guard against spread of the in
lection. The public schools were CLOSED
for two weeks, an action thought to be
unnecessary by many, but which the
Board of Health and the physicians Of th'
town say was very beneficial. The
schools are now open.
There appears to be room for more con
certed action or more complete under
standing among the members of thu
Board of Health At recent meeting
the advisablity of closing Sunday schools
was discussed and it was unanimously de

stolen article. Mr.. Butler, who was len

make charge. Marshal Kiple has sus-
pected Diehl for some time and has been
keeping watchful eye on him. Diehls
excuse for taking the ham was that he
thought he would help himself, take it
home, consume as much as he wanted,
then return the balance and pay for it.

The Telephone Scheme.

Fred E. McMonagle representing the
American Mutual Telephone Company,
of New Brunswick, is endeavoring to es-
tablish a telephone system in Mount
Holly. His idea is to place so telephones
as a starter. at $25 each per year, and
have a central office or exchange. He
proposes to run wire to Halnesport and
Lumberton to have those places on the
circuit. Exception is taken both to the
price and to the system proposed for this
plant
j. L. Jamison, of the Electric Light
Company, says the telephones proposed
to be placed by Mr.. McMonagle, are
known as magnetic machines, which are
not suited for exchange purposes because
permanent magnets are bound to dete-
riorate. ut is unwise," Mr.. Jamison
says, ito make any movement toward es-
tablishing an exchange uptil the Supreme
Court renders decision In the Bates
case. This will finally settle the validity
of the Bell Telephone Company's claim
for the monopoly of carbon transmitter,
which is necessary to the successful ope-
ration of an exchange. The Court heard
the final argument in the case two weeks
ago, and decision may be expected in q
month or two"

when he arrived. In his opinion death
was instantaneous, the bullet probably
passing through the heart
Coroner Horner was notified and at
once went to the house and viewed the
re mains AS there seemed to be doubt
whether the wound resulted from an &C
cident or was self-inflicted, he determined
to hold an inquest.
The witnesses before the jury were DR.
Marcy, a domestic in the family, a
Waterman at Dreer's nursery, which adj
joins the Wethenll home, and the de-
ceased woman's husband.
With the revolver which was found be,
