Real Estate Sales.

The executors of Gen. John S. Trick,
deceased, had closing sale of real estate
on Saturday. The peach farm, " on the
road from Vincentown to South Park,
was bought by Isaiah G. Lemunyon,
whose property it adjoins. He gave 5000
for the place, which contains 1875 acres.
The balance of the property consisted of
cleared timber land, prices for which
ruled very low. Two tracts brought
about half what Gen. Trick paid for
it a short time prior to his death.
The well-known farm "Oneanickon, y
situate near Upper Springfield meeting
house, was sold on Saturday. 1t was dis
posed of in two parts The eastern por-
tion containing 1875 acres, was bought by
Daniel S. White, Jr., for $40 per acre.
The eastern portion was sold for 1874. 80
per acre, to Helen H. Shreve The asses
sor's valuation on these properties was $45
per acre. In 1917 they brought $115 pei
acre. The only sale between that yeal
and now was about 1848, when $3.50 pei
acre was the price. Cedar swamp with
out timber brought from 80 cents to S;
per acre, and pine land averaged about S
per acre.

Marlton Churob Burned.

The Methodist Church at Marlton, a
large frame structure, was destroyed by
fire on Saturday afternoon. The flames
had gained considerable Roadway before
the fremen arrived, and they had no
chance of SAYING any part of the building.
Fearing that the frame houses near by
would also become involved and that the
fire might get beyond control of the local
firemen, aid was asked from the Mount
Holly and Haddontield departments. A
chemical engine was sent from the latter
town.
The out-of- town alarm was sounded in
Mount Holly, and the Relief engine and
Union and America hose carriages were
taken to the station. No locomotive was
there to take the apparatus, and while
efforts were being made to get one, word
arrived from Marlton that the fire was
under control
The church was totally destroyed, but
considerable of the furnishings were saved,
including the organ and pulpit furniture
The loss is about 81, 900; insurance So, 500
in the Burlington County Insurance Com
pany of Medford.
The church was erected in 1859, and
considerably improved recently. 1t was
free of debt. =. Rev. j. L. Denlinger is the
pastor.
Bricks hall was rendered gratuitously
for the worship of the congregation until
a new church can be built. The offer
was accepted and services were held there
on Sunday.

Objects to CurPew.

There was a stormy scene in the Vine
land Council chambers last week over the
introduction of the proposed curfew ordi-
nance. Mrs. Charles Keighley, president
of the w. G. t. o., appeared before May
or Lord and the Council at the head of a
delegation of women, and presenting a
petition made speech in favor of the cur
few.
After the proposed ordinance had passed
its second reading and the women had
congratulated themselves upon clear sail
ing, Rev Eli Clifford created a sensation
by taking the floor and vigorously de-
nouncing curfew ordinances as severe, I'M
American and unjust.
''You boast of America being land of
liberty" he said. do you call the cur
few freedom? believe it is unconstitu-
tional anyway Probably if you Coun-
cilmen would look at the list of signers to
that petition you would find that the ma
jority have no children under the age
specified.
Rev Mr. Clifford is president of the
West Jersey Camp Meeting Association
and pastor of the First Methodist Episco-
pal Church of Vineland. of which Mrs.
Keighley and other champions of the cur
few are prominent members, and his
remarks created big flutter.
Selfish minister, calculated Mrs.
Keighley, and many more uncompliment-
airy remarks concerning the minister were
made, but he kept gamely on and belab-
ored the curfew ordinance until it seemed
to fall in pieces. Council sought safety
from the gathering cyclone by postponing
action until next meeting

Editor wins Assaulted.


The dining room of the Arcade hotel
urday when William B. Wills, editor of
the Herald, was assaulted by William P.
Bryan, of Vincentown.
For long time there has been feeling
between the two men. 1t is said
the animosity first made its appear
ance during the silver campaign of 1896,
when, in a speech on public platform in
Vincentown, Bryan denounced Wills in
unmeasured terms. The editor of the
Herald was opposed to the silver doctrine
and Bryan was one of its warm advocates
When Thomas Black died, Wills was
left executor of the estate, and it is said
this was very disappointing to Bryan,
who had expected to occupy that position
himself. Whether this is so or not, there
is no doubt that the feeling on the part of
Bryan was not diminished and he had a
citation issued by the Surrogate compell-
ing Wills to make a showing of his ac-
counts to the court.
The result of this action was to show
that the estate had been admirably man
aged and the executor was complimented
by the court for the manner in which he
had executed the trusts imposed upon
him.
This did not tend to allay the feeling
already engendered and which eliminated
on Saturday in an assault.
Mr. Wills boards at the Arcade hotel
On Saturday he was at dinner. Bryan
was also in the dining room for the same
purpose. Some one made jocular re-
mark to Wills, which drew forth an an
swer that was not complimentary to Bryan.
Whether it was intended to reach the
ear of the latter is not certain. That he
did hear it is beyond doubt, for he at once
left his seat and went to where the editor
was, and, before the latter had a chance
to rise, Bryan struck him three times,
leaving severe bruises over each eye and
cutting deep cash in the lip. The wait
ers and male occupants of the dining room
interfered and prevented the striking of
any more blows.
There were several ladies in the room
and they were naturally agitated and for
a little time there was considerable confu-
sion Mr.. Wills went to his room and had his
wounds attended to, after which he went
before Justice Slack and secured a war
rant for Bryans arrest on charge of as
sault and battery. Bryan was held for
court, Postmaster Wills going on his bail
bond
The entire affair will undoubtedly be
aired in court, hence there is no necessity
of discussing the case here.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever Nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an intiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

Indigestion is caused by the stomach
