There was no business done in BurlIng-
ton on Sunday, and whatever was the
sentiment regarding their action it must
be admitted that the action of the leading
spirits in the Good Citizens League in
prosecuting couple of the offenders of
the Sunday previous is what caused all
hands to keep their places closed last Sun
day. After carrying their point and max
ing good their announcement that they
were determined to break up the sunday
business they acted very fairly in suggest
ing to the mayor that no fine be imposed
for this first ofense. Whether the dealers
will continue to respect the law and
whether the League will continue its
watchfulness, remains to be seen.

personal charms had attracted to her side
half-dozen courtiers.

from her, and lately she has supplement-
ed her Establishments by bedecking their
persons with jewelry, which came whence
they knew not. The police spprehended

An agent, accompanied by a young
woman, attracted some attention in town
during the past fortnight, but just why no
one seemed to know, as they were en-
gagged in legitimate business. The mans
name was Walter L. Brown, and the
woman professed to be his wife, They
were so registered at the West End hotel,
where they stopped over night. On
Tuesday morning Harry w olfe had the
pair arrested, and before Justice eleven
ger it was learned that the woman was
the compliments wife and that all three
lived in Philadelphia. The husband and
wife had been separated for some time
but they effected a reconciliation, aud
agreed to 60 home together, which they
did on the 230 P. NJ train. A police
officer states that Wolfe had a pistol in
his pocket with which be intended to
shoot Brown, and that the latter was also
armed.
When Brown left town the prediction
was that he and the woman would soon
be together again. This presumption was
verified. On Thursday when Wolfe went
to his home in Camden he found his wife
again missing. His suspicious were
aroused, and he, together with Mrs.
Brown, started in search for the couple
Learning that they had gone to Stockton,
the pursuers took car and rode as far as
the Cramer Hill post office.
They then strolled up the street and
came face to face with the Brown and
Mrs. Wolfe in front of the car barn The

other and the fight, while it lasted, was
vicious one. When the women stopped,

dition is load of healthy adult oysters
from Hog Island, to produce spawn, az

lost its reproductiveness. A load of these
oysters some years ago, under similar
conditions, brought about fine catches Of

The M. E. Church was not large enough
on Sunday evening to accommodate those
who desired to witness the exercises of
Children's day. The pulpit was hand
somely decorated with flowers. in which
were cages containing canary birds, whose
chirpings we're frequently heard
The exercises were of the high class
that always characterize such occasions in
the M. E. Church, where everybody
seems imbued with the single idea of
making grand success.
The exercises opened with chorus by
the school, "The day has Gomez" address,
Norman Harker scripture reading, Miss
Sweeney prayer, Rev. M. Relyea reci-
tation, Essie Ireland trio and chorus by

recitation, Ethel Sleeper; chorus by
school; recitation, Mary Simon solo,
Mary Cramer; chorus by school; recita-
ton, Edith Ssulsburg solo, Mabel Ebert
son; chorus by school.
Superintendent Horace Cronk and Pas
tor Relyea made short addresses bearing
on the Children's day topic.
The exercises by the infant school were
very interesting, particularly the solo and
chorus by Emily Cant and eight girls ;
also the recitation by Ida Prickett.
The church was packed from pit to
dome with most appreciative congrega-
ton, which was inclined more than once
to show its appreciation by applause.
At the Baptist Church the exercises
were highly enjoyed by the large congre-
CATION present. The pulpit was tastefully
decorated with flowers. An orchestra
furnished instrumental music. "Glad
Children's Day" was the first hymn. Mary
Quicksall delivered the address of well
come, which was followed by scripture
reading. After prayer, a hymn, Sun
shine everywhere" was sung. Marion
Colby recited Discomfort" More carols
followed. Then came recitations by Mary
circuit, "Golden-hearted daisies ;" Clara
Bullock, "The other sheep"
Eight little girls gave a motto exercise,
and there was congregational singing "a
concert of roses" was next given. Edith
Cooks recitation was entitled ''The child
to rose" A class of boys and girls gave
class exercise, entitled bible echoes y
''The apple blossom" was very nicely re-
cited by Hope Sherman, and a class of
girls recited "The hours
