Ninth Anniversary,


The Christian Endeavor society of
Trinity Church, celebrated it's Ninth An
niversary Monday evening, in very in
teresting manner.
The meeting was opened by song SER
vice led by Alonzo Leach, assisted by a
choir of twelve voices. A very earnest
prayer by District Secretary followed the
song service, after which the choir sang
Let Mount Zion Rejoice The Juniors
then sang asong which was enjoyed by all.
AS the speaker Rev. F. Heilenman was
presented by the president, Miss Laura
Wambold, he was greeted with the Chau.
tauquan salute.
The speaker showed in his usual con-
else manner, that High Aims are attained
by Giant Efforts, and even though we
only reach our highest aims as we are
about to lay down this life, yet the results
will benefit the generations that are to
follow.
After the speech, Miss Edna Woodruff
sang very delightful solo and the con.
gregation was dismissed by the pastor,
DR.. Thompson.

THE WIROHAWSKY'S
The Alleged Horse Thieves are Still in
Jail,

Jail.
Bill and Sam Wirchawsky, the Rus
SLAMS who have for months been in jail
charged with horse stealing, are still in
custody, and with no immediate pros
pect of getting out of the county prison
before the trial set down for the January
term.
Since the trial was put off there have
been made repeated efforts to obtain bail
for Sam. Many Hebrews out about
Rosenhayn have offered to sign the bail
bond, but Prosecutor Logue evidently
believes he has an important prisoner in
this man, and will not run any risk upon
the character of the bail. The Hebrews
who hold title to Rosenhayn property
are uncertain quantities, and their real
estate, as rule, is more or less encum-
bered, and is not considered by the
authorities as reliable for the purposes of
bonds.
Wirchawsky seems to still have a
great influence upon certain people in
and about Rosenhayn, especially the
lawless characters, and they think that
w IL iShoWSny 10 Uduly GICdtou. Ouly d
short time ago there were incendiary
utterances made by the friends of Sam.
In consequence word was sent to Sheriff
Cheesman that there was possibility of
raid upon the Jail, having for it's pur-
pose the releasing of Wirchawsky by
force. If the poor ignorant Hebrews
have such ideas in their heads they had
better disabuse their minds, for any at
tempt at business of that character would
bring grievous trouble upon the heads of
the perpetrators.

The Coming Woman

Who goes to the club while her husband
tends the baby, as well as the good old
fashioned woman who looks after her
home, will both at times get run down in
health. They will be troubled with loss
of appetite, headaches, sleeplessness,
fainting or dizzy spells. The most won-
eerful remedy for these women is Electric
Bitters. Thousands of sufferers from
Lame Back and Weak Kidneys rise up
and call it blessed. 1t is the medicine fer
women. Female complaints and Ner-
vous troubles of all kinds are soon re-
lieved by the use of Electric Bitters.
Delicate women should keep this remedy
on hand to build up the system. Only

First Attraction Tomorrow Evening at the

The Y. M. G. A. Ladies' Auxiliary
Course will open tonight, the at
traction being the Glee Club of Rutgers
College. The Ladies' have taken un-
usual care this season in arranging for
the course, and in selecting the Glee Club
for the inaugural attraction, their iudg-
ment is shown. The Club has the reputa
tion of being foremost among the College
Clubs OF the country, and for many years
its tours have been triumphal successes.
In Bridgeton the Rutgers boys have az
peared before. They have captured the
musical loving folk, and their entertain
ment still fingers in the minds of the
people who heard them.
The program for the concert tomorrow
night, bears an impress of originality,
spice. entertainment and artistic finish.
That the whole entertainment will be
pleasing cannot be but assured. The
first number of the course will be a sue
cess, and it is quite likely that the Ladies
Auxiliary will be highly gratified with
this particular effort,

Frid " while a number of gunners
were in the woods, between Newport and

They went to him and saw there was

that he could not stand or walk.
One of the gunners went after wagon

DEPUTIES RETURN.
Ahe ohcers Have Had no Trouble Since
They Were Among the Tongers in
the Creeks.

Frank J. Lore and John A. DEM, who
were special Deputy Sheriffs, have return
ed from down the lower part of the county.
where they were sent to warn tongers to
stop catching oysters from Fishing and
Oronoken Creeks.
The special Deputies were sent down
by the Sheriff, after that gentleman had
received notice from the Oronoken Creek
oyster Association that it's property was
pelng destroyed. In the line of duty.
SherlH Cheesman responded, but he fol-
lowed conservative, unassuming line of
procedure, and his instruction to his
deputies was simply to kindly talk to the
men, and show, by argument alone why
they were there.
Both DEM and Lore are careful, ,respon-
sible men, and they went down to the
scene OF the troubles between oyster
syndicate and oyster tongers. The
tongers evidently knew that the special
officers were to be there, and during the
week the Deputies were upon the Creeks.
not single oysterman was at work,
Ihere seems to have come change
over the tongers. They have not changed
their ideas of their rights. They know
that these Creeks contain natural ovster
beds, but it is beginning to be felt that
the matter should be settled in the Courts.
The tongers went upon the Creeks boldly
and before Representatives of the syndi-
cate, took oysters. The men were ar
rested and now the authorities can soon
get their cases before jury.
Then there are some among the tongers
who think that all the trouble could he
obviated if both the syndicate and the
tongers would use some common sense.
One tonger said he had done nothing all
his life but fish these Creeks for oysters
on his own hook. He had never been
successful to any great degree, had
managed to only exc out an existence,
In the opinion Of this tonger, it would
be good thing for all concerned if the
Company would go on and plant in the
creeks and establish a great industry
there, so that the tongers could obtain
employment in collecting oysters for the
company at good wages.
The special Deputies report upon this
return that all the tongers they met
promised they would not go upon the
creeks for oysters again until the whole
matter was settled,

Agreeahly Snrnrised.

When the Bohemian Burlesquers were
in Millville, they were warned that their
visit to Bridgeton would prove decidedly
unpleasant, even though business was
good from financial standpoint. The
cause of the unpleasantness, as ascribed
by sincere Millville friends, was owing
to the fact that Bridgeton had very:poor
theatre. Think of the neck of it! Any
body who has ever been in the ''palace of
amusement" in Millville, cannot readily
see how anybody over there can SYM
pathize with one who is coming to
Moore's very creditable and more than
comfortable play house.

HELD FOR COURT.
The Oimplxins Abduction Case is Heard
Before Justice Joel f. Pierce
Monday.


Monday.
The abduction case of Eva Simpkins
was aired in the Sheriff's office Monday
before Esquire Joel F. Pierce, against
Michael Gallagher, Kate Graham, Sadie
Heintz and Howard Morgan. There
were many spectators present.
Samuel Iredell, ESQ.,, appeared for the
defendants. The charge against Michael
Gallagher was first brought up. Mrs.
Annie Simpkins, being sworn, said:
That on a certain night Kate and Sadie
came to her house after Eva, and wanted
her to go to church, and she went out.
She had hidden her cape under her arm;
she went away without my consent.
Eva had talk with Katie and Sadie,
Mrs. Simpkins did not see Mike there at
all. When Eva went away, she did not
see her for five days after Eva had
never been away from home over night.
She had never stayed out late at night,
nor ever did anything wrong, according
to her mothers statement.
There was no evidence against Gal
lagher, so he was discharged. Then the
other cases against Eva was brought up.
The case of Howard Morgan charged
with same offense of abducting Eva
Simpkins, to which he pleaded not
guilty.
Mrs. Simpkins was put on the stand and
asked if she knew Mr.. Morgan and she
replied, mo" She had never seen him;
did not see him on the night Sadie called
for Eva to go to church.
Mr.. Iredell asked Mrs. Simpkins about
the same questions as he did before about
her daughter staying out late nights.
She said Eva went out the house alone.
Eva came up again and Mr.. Iredell
said, EVA you know what will become
of you if you tell story, don't you ?'
Yes, sir" Eva replied with smile.
"She has been on her oath before"
chimed in her mother.
Eva then went on and told her story of
going out to beer place and while there
she was offered beer; did not touch any.
Sadie offered it to her. "Sadie got hold
of Morgan by the shirt collar and pretty
nigh tore his shirt off," Morgan sat on
the seat with her coming home, but never
laid his hand on her.
Then the case against Kate Graham and
Sadie Heintz was brought up. Kate
came in from Jail quarters with all smiles
and Sadie came in after her, but she did
not smile much. The Squire read the
charge to the women and they pleaded
mot guilty."
Mrs. Simpkins was again put on the
stand and told the same old story that
she did the first time. While she was
giving in her testimony, the women
would give long deep sighs.
Mr.. Iredell argued that Eva went riding
and went away on her own accord.
The statute says, the person abducted
must be taken against her will. This
was not so, in this case, she went with
her own free will.
The Squire held the two women each
in 5000. bail for Court.
The women were taken back to Jail.
AS Kate went out, she turned to Mrs.
Simpkins and waving her hand said: TIA,
tao
Sadie Heintz secured bail, but Kate
will have to remain in Jail until their
trial.

STARVING WITH LOCKED JAWS,
A Glassblower's Injured Thumb May Cost
Him His Life.

MILLvILLE, N. j., Nov. n.-Charles
McAllister, glass shearer, is dying to-
night with lockjaw, and the physicians
have no hope for his recovery. One
month ago McAllister had his left thumb
mashed with hammer, and three weeks
later blood poison set in. Since that time
his jaws have been closing; he has been
unable to eat, and has been gradually
starving to death. Tonight his tongue is
swelling, and the physicians fear that he
will have convulsions and die suddenly,

Windowglass Wage Scale.

PITTsBURG, Nov. 16.-The roseate views
OF the window glass situation, that the
organization of manufacturers was COM
pleted and ready to negotiate with the
workers on the wage scale, are denied.
o. E. Frazee, selling agent for the Win
dow Glass Combination, says the manu-
facturers here made no overtures for
peace to their employees, and do not in
tend to. They expect the workers to
make a reasonable proposition within a
day or two, and have reliable information
that the employees are about to yield.
They can stand the waiting game. Presi-
dent Burns, of the workers, says the out
put of the small factories now working is
not sufficient to relieve the strain on the
market,

GASOLINE STOVE EXPLODEs,
Room Burned Out and Man Injured
in North Bridgeton.

A gasoline stove exploded in the home
OF Alonzo Osborne, IA Mt. Vernon street
FRIDAY morning. Mr.. Osborne had
just gone to bed, having worked all night
and Mrs. Osborne was in the dining room
attending to some work. The stove was
IN the kitchen and still lighted where
Mrs. Osborne had gotten her husbands
breakfast,
All of a sudden an explosion occurred.
and Mrs Osborne look ing through a glass
door, saw that the kitchen was all ablaze
She called her husband who got up and
ran down stairs. He pibked up the
stove and threw it into the yard, then
tried to save the things in the room, but
the explosion which occurred from the
tank had blown the top off and scattered
the gasoline all about the room, and it
burned so quickly that nothing was
saved. A large looking glass was broken
to pieces and the glass in the door
was broken. The carpet, pictures, and,
IN fact, everything except a table was
burned. Mr.. Osborne had hung his coat
on the door and it, with some other cloth
ing was burned. The woodwork and
doors were a / charred, and the walls and
ceiling Were black as coal. How so
much damage could be done in so short a
time is wonder.
Mr.. Osbo ne was burned about his
hands, arms and feet, but he managed to
get some Water and dash it about the
room distinguishing the fire. Mrs.
osborne was terribly frightened, but is
thankful she was not in the kitchen
when the ex plosion occurred.
