Rnhhars Aeainl

Lawyer Horace F. Nixon's residence on
Evergreen avenue was entered by thieves
Monday afternoon, and articles of consider
able value were taken. The house was
closed, Mr.. and Mrs. Nixon being at Cape
NAV for time, and Mr.. Nixon visited the
house only occasionally. When he entered
the house at pm. on Monday night he
found it in disorder. An open cellar win
dow, that had been forced, showed where
the entrance was gained. Among the ar
ticles already missed is child's bank that
contained about $4, quantity of silver
ware, $5 worth Of old coins, and a revolver.
Mr.. Nixon has no idea that the loss is
confined to these articles, because bureaus
were ransacked and the contents strewn
over the house. Until Mrs. Nixon returns
an approximate idea Of the loss cannot be
given.

A special meeting of the City Council
was held on Tuesday evening, all the

son. The object Of the meeting was to
enact an ordinance repeating the ordinance

The Ordinance Committee then intro
duced an ordinance supplemental to the
Cooper Street improvement ordinance,
which was considered, and several amend
ments adopted, among these being extend
ing the eastern terminus to a point 180 feet
east of Bavard avenue or to the eastern line
of Mr. Dunns's property another amend
ment eliminated the provi>o limiting COM
petition TO vitrifed brick, and allowing all

Base Ball.

Once more, to the tune Of nIt's our
turn now,n Goodwill met defeat at the
hands of the Country Club team with Dob
son, their old twister in the box. With
high hopes, a professional pitcher and the
best team scraped together which North
Woodbury. and its hackers could afford,
they met glorious defeat-2-0. Goodwill
determined to win and then roost along the
Court House pavement and post office
square and crow like a prize fighting
rooster.
They lost, twas their third straight de-
feat at Dobsons hands, yet with all OF their
good resolutions they failed to put the
plug in the exhaust pipe or to choke the
rooster, and the tune which the old COW
died on" still floats across the creek with
its same monotone monotonousness.
Goodwill, be honorable, own up and
back out. The thing is getting wearisome
now. Everybody knows that no North
Woodbury. team can win, and if you do, it
will only be at the hands of Blacks or
Connie Mack's team Try and charter one
of these teams for game, with North
Woodbury. player as plate sweeper, so that
you can say the team came from North
Woodbury., then win your game.

enough lime for three coats of white wash;
probably they won't have enough left if you
have an entire professional team.
Long was all right and pitched an excel
lent game, but his support got cold feet at
the wrong time. Rube Waddell might win
a game with twenty-seven strike-outs, but
even he has had his bumps. We wish to
see this thing ended. Back out and be brave
or Dobson may be forced to have few
more shut outs We admire your grit, but
it is hard to swallow bitter pill, especially
when it is moulded with ones good money
as was yours.
The two winning runs were made by the
Country Club in the tenth inning. Ped
rick got first on a clean hit to left field.
Dobson got first on an error by Corbett, who
in his haste to make double play off Dob
sons grounder to Meyer, fumbled, allowing
Pedrick to get to second and Dobson to
first Tyler sacrificed to Long while Ped
rick and Dobson moved to third and second
respectively, then Houser, who had been
doing nothing with the stick, put hard
liner oyer second base. Pedrick scampered
home and Corbett threw wild to Sharpley
on Bakeleys relay allowing Dobson to come
to the plate to the tune Of "Home Sweet
Home" Houser reached third. Edwards
died on a grounder to second, and "Buck"
flied out.

JEWISH CONGREGATION
DELEGATES sEPHER THoRA
Rev. DR.. M. S. Levy in Performing
Ceremony Speaks of Heroism
of Hebrews

A most interesting ceremony was per-
formed at the Congregation Chevra Thi-
lin, Howard and Sixth streets, yesterday,
when a Sepher Thora was dedicated. The
address was delivered by the Rev. NJ. s.
Levy. In the course Of which he spoke Of
the prosecutions to which the Hebrews
had been subjected and related instances
of martyrdom which had been suffered
heroically by many of their race. Dr..
Levy said that without religion a man
could not make a good citizen, and he
called upon the congregation to stand by
its place of worship and above all to
maintain its religion, which he said was
the Oldest of all religions. The Jew, he
said, could boast of the bluest of blue
blood. They had had their kings and
their queens, their army and their navy
and when called upon the Jew, he de-
clared was ready to fight for his country
The rabbi instanced the number of Jews
who had volunteered to go to the Phil
ippines and one of their co-religionists, he
said, was the first to fall in battle on the
island for the United States. DIR. Levy
then opened the scroll and for the privi-
lege of writing in the unfinished letters
in Hebrew there was a brisk bid of
money The sums offered are to be de-
voted to the fund of the synagogue.
