There was a game of foot ball in Phila-
delphia, on Saturday afternoon, in which
the Mount Holly team played against a
team called graduates of the University of
Pennsylvania. All the opponents were
stars and they kept our boys on the move.
The first half was snappy and ended S to o
in favor of Pennsylvania, their quarter
back having kicked goal from the field.
In the second half, Minds, Captain of
the University team of this year, played
fullback, and his skill counted largely
against us, and IS points were scored, the
game ending % to o.
The grounds were very wet and slippery,
but both sides were benefited by this con-
dition. Taken altogether the showing
was not discreditable to Mount Holly, as
their opponents were all star players,
thoroughly posted in every point of the
game, and three of them having been in
some of the finest college games, this sea-
son, that have ever been played The re-
ceipts of the game were for the benefit of
the Cuban patriots and a neat sum was
realized.

Death Of wtl,am n. EisdOu.

A pail of gloom was cast over this town
on Thursday by the announcement of the
death of DIR. William NJ RIsdon. The
shock was doubly severe, coming as it did
at time when all were preparing to en-
joy the good cheer of Thanksgiving day.
DR.. Risdon had been suffering with rup-
ture for some time and decided to under
go a surgical operation. For this purpose
he went to the German Hospital, Phila-
delphia, and had been there but little
over week. The operation was success
fully performed and as the patient was rap
idly recovering Mrs Risdon was al
lowed to see him on Wednesday. So nice
ly did her husband appear to be doing that
when Mrs. Risdon left him, it was with a
feeling that his recovery was assured.
DIR. Risdon fell asleep soon after she
left and on awakening complained of
feeling badly. The physician was called
and was soon at the bedside. He raised
the sick man in his arms, and the latter,
with a short gasp, died. Mrs. Risdon had
been summoned, but her husband was
dead before she reached him. 1t is
thought that death was the result of an
inherited trouble of the heart which rem
dered that organ incapable of Withstand
ing the shock of the operation.
hood for long time which has caused
the universal sorrow that follows the
sudden removal of DIR. RIsdon. He was
man with friends everywhere, with enc
mics nowhere. OF bright, sunny dis
position, at all times cheerful, he always
had pleasant word for all.
DIR. Risdon was county clerk of Bur-
lington county for the years 1S68-73 and
was postmaster from 1S77-79 till retiring
from the latter position to practice his
profession of dentistry.
At the time of his death he was men,

Suspicious Fire.


The fire department was called out
about half past nine on Tuesday evening,
in response to an alarm caused by the
burning of building out Garden street.
The building was on the property of the
late William 6. Lippincott, now occupied
by Ellis G. Taylor, painter, who used it
as storehouse for his paint. There is
no doubt that the fire was of incendiary
origin.
Since Mr.. Taylor has lived at the place
he has been the victim of thieves who
haye been stealing his chickens, and the
fire was probably the work of the same
gang
The fire was extinguished without the
aid of the fremen. On the same night
about two hours later, Mr.. Taylor's son
looked out of the back door just before
going to bed, and he saw a man near the
barn, who quickly ran off. Young Tay-
Tor went out and discovered unmistakable
evidence of an attempt to fire the barn.
