Resolutions of Respect.

At meeting of the Rector, Wardeni
and Vestrymen of Saint Andrews Church.
Mount Holly, especially called, held i'm
mediately after Morning Service, Sunday,
March 4, 1900, the following minute was
unanimously adopted, and ordered to be
spread upon the records:
Forasmuch as it hath pleased Almighty
God, in His wise providence, to take out
of the world the soul of our deceased
brother and associate, Robert L. Nixon,
for a number of years connected with us
in the care and direction of the affairs OF
the Parish, it is deemed fitting that this
minute be spread upon the records of the
vestry.
Mr.. Nixons interest in the welfare and
and progress of the community is well
known to those who have knowledge of
his efforts for their advancement. He
was recognized as one of our most public
spirited citizens.
To the church he gave the same zeal
and earnestness that he displayed in mat
tiers affecting the public welfare To its
business affairs he gave unremitting de-
votion, seldom absenting himself from the
meetings of the vestry; and to the SER
vices of the church the same devotion
was given, until he was deferred by the
severe and continued illness which ended
in his departure hence in peace.
May he have the sweet calm of Para
disc the blest.
Extending to his sorrowing family our
heartfelt and affectionate sympathy, we
direct that they be furnished with copy
Of this minute and that the same be pub
lished in the newspapers of Mount Holly.

Hoods Sarsaparilla now you may build ur

New Egypt

Mr.. Pharr, photographer of no mean
ability, has located temporarily in Asson's
photograph gallery on Railroad avenue.
The McDermott freeholder act is being
generally condemned in this section as de-
stroying home rule and having the effect
of placing the Board of Freeholders in the
hands of the politicians
The Ocean County Board of Freeholders
will meet at New Egypt, on Friday next,
and arrange for the new iron bridge on
Main street. This is one of the greatest
movements In favor of public improve
ments that has been inaugurated since the
advent of the electric light system. Elec-
trio lights, iron bridge, good roads and a
bicycle road to the shore are all necessary
to make New Egypt an pto-date town.
With the township election only week
off the state Senate has passed bill abol-
ishing the Board of Freeholders, while
the House of Assembly has passed bill
continuing part of the township commit
teemen in Office. twas generally supposed
when the township laws were revised last
wear that there would be no more changes
in them for few years at least. This
continual tinkering with the township
laws should meet with general condem-
nation.
1t is to be hoped that our citizens who
favor making this town permanent sum
mer resort will make an effort to secure
an appropriation for a lookup. New
Egypt is no worse than other country
towns, but there are doubtless many who
remember the disgraceful scenes of last
summer, when few roughs from dis
lance practically defied the officers Of the
law. This would not have occurred had
there been lookup. AS conditions are
to- day the officers are compelled to take
prisoners of this character % miles to the
county seat for small remuneration,
when a night in the lookup and small
fine would answer the purpose as well and
have the effect of securing the punish
ment of these offenders.

spices of the M. E. Church, in the town

Gortou,s Minrtrels Coming.

Good minstrel shows are always popu-
lar, and Gorton's Famous New Orleans
Minstrels from one of the best burnt cork
combinations that has taken the road
since the time when Jack Haverly was in
his prime and Billy Emerson's Jokes were
new.
The performance given by this most
excellent company is highly appreciated
everywhere, the laughter and applause
being almost continuous, the magnificent
new first part being revelation, in that
the songs are prettily sung, the jokes
without the corners showing signs of wear
and the orchestration far above the
average. The quartette singing is q
prime feature. In the olio the songs,
dances, musical acts and comedy special
ties of an exceptional character.
The audience will depart at the con
clusion Of the performance with the coz
viction that for once in their lives they
have seen show that produced what i
advertised and that they have received
their moneys worth.

Garden street, Tuesday afternoon, after a
lingering illness. He had been confined
to the house for several months suffering

funds to establish the mating factory, on
Water street, and the first carpet factory
He also perfected the arrangements by
which the shoe business of Frank S. Davis
of Lumberton was removed to Mount

Electric Light Company and assisted
materially in organizing the Street Rail-
way Company. In each of the industries
he succeeded in establishing he. invested
in the stock.
