WHAT fools we mortals be! The
Delaware Peace Society has called
on President Mckinley to retract
his steps in connection with the
Governments policy toward the
Philippine Islands. David Ferris,
happily for America, is not Presi-
dent of the United States. His and
others actions in the war now 60
ing on in the Philippines, are dis
honor to those calling themselves
Americans. They should have
heard DIR. McCurdy's sermon last
Sunday morning on the Growth of
America" Such small sized men
entirely fit the resolutions they
passed yesterday, calling upon the
President to turn back and with
draw our troops from the Philip
pine Islands. They might as we'll
save the paper the resolutions were
written on, us by their actions they
are making themselves the laughing
stock Of the community.

MASKED
BURGLARS
Bound Aged Woman But Got
Little Booty.

Old Mary TuttIe, Familiar Charac-
ter in This Vicinity, Tied to Her
Bed at an Early Hour Yesterday
Morning Released by an Old
Man who Worked About the Place
No Trace of the Culprits.
When an old man who does work
about the farm of Miss Mary Tuttle, near
Morris Plains, reached that place early
yesterday morning, he heard faint
screams for help coming from the house.
Entering he found the single occupant,
who is so years old, bound to the bed
with ropes and exhausted from efforts
made to free herself.
After being released she told the old
man she had been robbed. Her story
was that, at about midnight she had
been awakened by mans grasp on her
throat and she saw two men with dark
lantern standing over her. One of the
robbers said ''if you make a noise we'll
kill you" and after binding the old
woman demanded to know where she
kept her money. She told them that all
the money she had was in vase on the
mantls-piece, They took the change
which amounted to about $4 and after a
hasty search of the nouse went away.
A watch was also taken.
Mrs. Tuttle came to Morristown and
reported the matter to Sheriff During
but the robbers have not been appre-
hended.
Complaint was made before Justice Of
the Peace George j. Cory last night and
it is probable that official will issue war
rants within short time.

event and the progress of the work at
the chapel. The proceeds of the enter
tainment amounted to $31.34
