Court,


There was session of court on We'd
nesday, with Judges Gaskill, Glasgow and
Lippincott on the bench.
Albert Apologize was brought in for
sentence. He had previously pleaded
guilty to an indecent assault on Ada
Pfejffer. an eight-year-old girl living IN
Woodland township.
After hearing statement by Mark R.
Sooy in behalf of the prisoner, and a re-
ply thereto by Prosecutor Budd, the court
imposed a sentence of two years In the
state prison.
The court then took up the case of the
New Jersey DaIrymen's Protective Asso-
citation against William E. and Dillwyn
H. Cox. TIE twelve juors selected at the
last sitting of the court to try the case
we're qualified. The case was tried before
Justice Clevenger, of Mount Holly, and
jury, the latter rendering a verdict of
$l98 in favor of the Association. Clar-
ence T. Atkinson represented the Cox
brothers, and Robert S. Gasklll and Mark
R. Sooy appeared for the Dairymen's
Association.
The evidence showed that the Cox
brothers were farming near Marlton in
1891 and joined the Dairymen's Protec-
tive Association. They paid in a number
of assessments and then concluded to
withdraw. Counsel for the Association
contended that they had neglected to do
that which the constitution and bylaws
required of members wishing to with
draw.
The Association claimed that the Cox
brothers owed assessments aggregating
$685. Their counsel insisted that they
had paid all assessments up to the time
when they withdrew from the Associa-
ton.
After they had closed their side of the
case counsel for the Association announced
to the court that they had discovered one
of the jurors, William Evans, of CHINA
minson, was a nephew of the wife of
William E. Cox. This rendering him In
com petent under the law he was excused
and the opposing counsel agreed to con
tinue the case with eleven jurors.
In arguing the case counsel for the Cox
brothers contended that they were no
members of the New Jersey Dairymen'l
Protective Association. but that they be
longed to the Marlton Dairymen's Asso
citation, and were responsible to the latter
if to anybody. Mr.. Atkinson also con
tended that the formation of combination
intended to fix and control the price o
commodity like milk was contrary t.
public policy and the law.
4 Counsel for the New Jersey Association
8 contended that the Cox brothers wer,
] members thereof, having paid dues AM
assessments levied by it. Great stress
4 was laid on the fact that they had writer
a letter saying they intended to Withdraw
l from the Association.
The jury were out something over al
j, hour when they returned with verdlC
: of no cause of action. which was victor
: for the Cox brothers. 1t is doubtfr
whether the Dairymen's Association wi
, let the matter rest here.

Governor Werts on Tuesday issued his
third death warrant for the hanging of
Theodore Lambert, the coIored murderer
of Camden. who shot Baker William
Kairer, of Camden, while robbing the
house. Edward Fox, the Governors
clerk, who has carried and read more
than a score of death warrants to con-
demned murderers, and who has twice
before appeared before Lambert on the
same mission. visited the Camden Jail, on
Wednesday, and notified the murderer
that he must prepare to die December 10,
six days before Christmas.
Lawyer John L. Semple, who by legal
juggling has kept the colored murderer
allYe since December 4, 1898, when he
was first condemned to die, was at the
State House early Tuesday morning
armed with another prayer to the Board
of Pardons asking them to again consider
the case of Lamb and alleging that he
had discovered new evidence in favor of
his client. The petition will be acted
upon at the coming meeting of the Board,
which will be about a week before the
day fixed for Lamberts execution.
Lawyer Semple says he does not know
just what his next move will be. The
United States Supreme Court has decided
that none of Lambert's constitutional
rights have been invaded by the action Of
Governor Werts in issuing the second
death warrant. Mr. Semple said be
will probably wait and see what action
the Court of Pardons will take in the
new petition he has just presented, and il
that action be unfavorable, as it no doubt
will be, the Board haying once before re
fused to commute Lambert's sentence t.
imprisonment for life, he may take out q
writ of certiorari and apply for secont
habeas corpus, and, if his application b.
denied or allowed, carry the case to thu
United States Supreme Court on differen
law points than those before raised
Mr.. Semple contends that the Governo
violates the constitutional clause which
prescribes that he can only issue dealt
warrants 80 days after judgment has beel
pronounced.

The game of foot ball on the Athletic
grounds on Thanksgiving day was not as
interesting as it might have been. Mount
Holly did not play its usual strong game,
! the team work and interference not being
very effective. The local eleven was
handicapped by the absence of Denness
and Hunt, who were out of town, and
James Berry was unable to do himself
justice owing to a lame shoulder. He
was compelled to play after McIlvain had
retired early in the first half with a
sprained knee.
The Falls of Schuylkill team was not
any stronger than Trinity Guild, which
played here the week before, and the
score should have been more than twice
as large as it was-22 to 0.
Mount Holly's work was fairly good,
and there was no danger of the visitors
scoring at any time.
! G. E. Hendrickson made 50-yard run
and secured the first touchdown IN less
than minute after the opening. Cheese
man put up strong, steady game, break
ing through Schuylkill's line whenever
he wanted to.
The lineup of the teams was as follows:

The foot ball season in Mount Holly
closed on Saturday with the game be-
tween the Athletic Association and
Princeton Consolidated teams. The latter
won, as naturally should be expected
The score was 16 to f.
When it is considered that Mount Hol
ly was crippled by the absence of three
good players, and that the visitors were
exceptionally strong. it is surprising that
the local eleven scored at all. In face of
the odds against it, Mount Holly is to be
congratulated for the stubborn game it
put up.
The Princeton boys showed good team
work In every direction, and won by SUI
perior playing in general. Mount Holly's
interference and tackling did not come up
to the standard, or the score would have
assumed different aspect.
Tucker and Thompson did the star
playing for the visitors. The formers
lunges were terrific, and it was hard work
to stop him. In the rst half he made a
55-yard run and scored the first touch
down.
The touchdown credited to Mount Hol-
ly was made on foul by Princeton be-
hind their goal line. They had the ball
about two yards in front of their line,
and in passing it back for kick by
Graham, it bounded from his hands to
Smith, who made a forward pass AS a

opposite side and 10 put down where it oc-
