EDEN MUSEE.

The Eden Musee New York was one
of the first Amusement places to take up
moving pictures and it secured the
Cinematograph, one Of the best moving
picture machines. Since that time the
Musee has made several improvements
which have made moving pictures a
complete success. The vibrations of the
moving film were reduced, the pictures
enlarged, and taken by imp owed meth
ods. For over a year the Musee
had been taking its own pictures
and has had representatives wherever
important scenes were about to take
place. Pictures were taken of the Cuban
War and now pictures are being taken
throughout South Africa. From start to
finish the pictures make one think be is
IN fairyland. and by thousands of people
the pictures have been pronounced the.
most elaborate ever taken. At other
hours during the afternoon and evening
other interesting pictures are shown.
Till's wonderful Marlonettes give daily
performances and there are many other
attractions at the Musee.

England life. its views of crisp snow. the
merry jingle OF the sleigh bells, the

BOARD OF FREEHOLDERS
A Busy Monthly Meeting.

At the Freeholder's meeting on We'd
nesday every member was present and it
was an interesting and important session.
The chief business transacted was the
election of ex.Judge H. H. Brown to
succeed Road Supervisor Garretson on
January 9Th.
A communication was read by Clerk
CLAYTON from Harry Conrad, cashier of
Perth Amboy's new bank, to the effect
that as Perth Amboy contributed
goodly share Of money for Middlesex
county maintenance. the officials of the
bank hoped that the Freeholders would
see fit to make deposits there, even if it
was only the Perth Amboy money. The
matter was referred to the Finance Com
mittee for consideration.
The report of the County Collector
was as follows:
Balance December l., 5 1887 04
Receipts, 175, ,8O6 As
Disbursements, 1O2, ,425 %
Balance December 81, 88,768 p
The receipts included the returns from
the township collectors of 1924 800 &c.
Freeholder SiIvers was granted the per.
mission of the Board to withdraw a re.
solution and petition adopted at the last
meeting to permit the Farmers and
Traders Telephone Company of Plains
boro to erect poles. He did so and sub
stituted another petition to permit the
erection of poles along the Cranbury road
from the Cranbury Institute to Cranbury
Station and along Ridge Road between
Kingston and Monmouth Junction. His
resolution gave the company permission
to erect the poles subject to supervision
by the Road Committee.
Director Fountain called attention to
the fact that it would be best to specify
the distance the poles should be set from
from the road. Freeholder Bennett said
the Kingston Road was narrow and the
poles ought to be against the fence. Mr..
Groves Of the company was given the
floor and he saidthere would be no trouble
as the company intended to keep close to
the line so that the farmers could use the
poles for fence purposes.
After a little more talk on the subject
the resolution was adopted, all voting for
it excepting Freeholder Bennett.
A resolution was then presented by
the Road Committee. to permit the COM
mittee to amend the road contracts and
take away from the Cranbury Road some
of the appropriation for the Lincoln and
Dunellen Road. Freeholder Bennett
objected to this and Solicitor DAILY ex-
planned by saying there was little strip
of the Dunellen road, three quarters OF a
mile which If it was not done this way
would be the means of losing to the county
ST 900 as the State would not appropriate
for less than one mile. This satisfied
Freeholder Bennett who withdrew his
objection. The resolution was adopted.
