two hours of laughter. Other amusing
matter in the programme include Monroe

production in Philadelphia of Tags" a
comedy of errors, which has been highly
successful elsewhere. Miss Monroe intro
duces limitations of Anna Held, Fay Tenn

The act furnished by Joe Relchen and his
dogs is unique among the achievements Of
animal training, their performance having
created something of sensation during
his former engagement here.

FREEHoLDER Birkhead paid a deserved
compliment to Auditor Worrell in open
session at the meeting of the board of
freeholders on Wednesday. In reading
the statement of the condition of the
treasury he said Mr.. Worrell is entitled to
great praise for the manner in which he
has watched the matter of costs and fines.
By his care and attention in this particular
item he has saved the county many dollars.
WHEN the Democratic members of the
Board of Freeholders went into caucus
they decided to oppose some measures
The salaries of efficient officials were not
to be increased and the printers must be
hit. Nothing was said against stone road
expenditures, bridge bills, personal pay
or the purchase of played out turnpikes,
but the printers must be downed. So
when the resolution came up designating
the papers to do the advertising, the re-
form member from Shamong got in his
little speech. Later when Mr. Birkhead
read off the items where members had
overrun their appropriations, he men
toned overdrafts on bridge account, ST.,
400; stone roads, $1,000; personal bills,
S1,775, yet not word of censure came
from the reform corner. The time was
not ripe for that; the overdrafts by the
wicked newspaper men would cause the
righteous indignation to break forth.
And when Mr.. Birkhead read that item it
amounted to just $110 The true reform
er smiled sickly grin and held his peace
