SOMETHING
FOR CUMBERLAND.

Trenton, August 30.-Although the
new law creating the Department of
Labor, to supplant the old factory In
spection law, will go into effect next
Thursday, September 1, Governor
Murphy has not yet announced the list
of deputy inspectors who are to serve
under Chief Louis T. Bryant. 1t was
expected that the list of lucky ones
could be announced to-day but it was
not forthcoming, and the eager Re-
publicans who have been on the anxi-
GUS bench for SO long will have to
wait few days more. There are a
good many of them, too. The 81
counties presented the names of sew
eral hundred men, and not a few
women, who felt that they could in
spect factories for the snug little $1,000
a year and expenses provided by the
new law. AS there are but nine men
and two women to be named under the
law, however, there must be some
very keen disappointments in some
parts of the State.
1t was whispered soon after the
Governor reached the capital that he
had run against some obstacles in the
naming of the fortunate ones. 1t was
said that he had his list all prepared
and ready to announce, when there
came some protests from Republican
leaders in various parts of the state,
who felt that they had not been given
all that they desired of the fruits of
victory. AS if to prove that the
rumors were true, there appeared be-
fore the Governor in his Executive
Chamber Senator ..B. H. Minch, AS
semblyman Louis H. Miller and Re-
publican Chairman James E. Mitchell,
of Cumberland County, and after a
short wait the trio had long, close
conversation with the Executive. At
it's close they spoke of the weather and
said they had "just had little talk
with the Governor about various
things"
Afterward it was discovered that
the Cumberland men had come to
press their claims for the appointment
of two men as deputy factory inspec-
tors, that county having been allotted
but one. 1t was said that the Cover
nor's list contained the names of two
Essex men and the Cumberland lead
ers felt that it was like the usual
trend of things political to give to Es-
sex so much and they told the Cover
nor SO. just what the Executive con-
cluded to do was not apparent, but he
did not announce his little list.
After the Cumberland men had left

The Wrestling Bout.


Great interest is being taken in the
wrestling boat between Santell, the
famous strong man, and Summerville.
the light weight champion of Great
Britain, at the Park, on next Friday
evening, and although this is the first
affair of the kind ever held in this CITY
the attendance will doubtless be large.
The wrestling bout will be held under
the auspices of the Bridgeton Ath-
letic Associa ion, and in connection.
with it the members will present some
unique, interesting events, among
them being royal tug. .of-war between
teams selected from the married and
single men of the association. The
athletic field will be brilliantly illumi-
mated and the promise of the usual
good order insures the attendance of
many ladies. There will be lots doing
at the Park on that evening.

the day time unless he is disturbed
then sometimes a. boat must be pushed
right on top of him to make him fly.
All his travelling is done at night
No one knows when he comes or
goes. 1t is known fact that to-day
he may be hunted for and is scrce and
the next the is abundant. The highest
tides arealways the best. To have
the most success in reed bird shooting
in sportsman's way is to find bank
with low grass meadow behind it or
the mouth of a creek and get the fly
in the early lmorning or evening :for
that is the time the birds fly of their
own accord hunting roasting place
for the night. They always roost
either on the reeds or in the meadows
usually happens about the last of Oc-
tober. The best places to find reed
birds in Pennsylvania is along the
Darpy Creek Big Tinicum and Little
Tinicum IIsland at Essington and
along the Delaware flats from Chester
to Bristol Pa. In this state the best
places are Bridgeport along the Ra-
coon creek and at the mouth Of the
creek there are some very large reed
flats. Salem is another good place
and large kills are made there every
year.
The best gun to use on reed and rail
birds is a sixteen-bore or light twelve
bore with cylinder barrels about
twenty-six or twenty eight. inches
long. The load should be two and
one-half drains one ounce of No. or
10 shot and not cover three drams one
ounce of No. or 10 shot Powder
any good smokeless.
The best way for a sportsman to
hunt reed or rail birds is to go to any
of the places mentioned and hire a
man to push him which will cost
about 80. so or $4 tide. Natives can
be found at the different places who
and start flying at daybreak.

marking down their birds after they
have killed them, and there is only one
rule to follow to save that trouble. If
bird is killed sitting on reed or
top of bush never take the eye off of
the spot, and walk in direct line in
the direction the gun was fired. One
can always tell the way by the reeds
being out by the shot After bird
has been killed go right after him and
don't look to see if there are any
others coming, otherwise there will be
trouble finding the one which was
shot, as the reeds all look alike and
the plumage of the reed bird is similar
to the reeds. If the bird should drop
in the water, get him as soon as pos
sible or the eels will grab it. Eels
have often been seen to take the down
right before the gunner. If rail
bird is crippled and cannot be found
where he fell, raise the reeds up from
the water. Sometimes they go under
the water and hang on with only their
bills above.

He pulled the horse off the track,

LOOK OUT FOR HIM.

Prosecutor J. Hampton Fithian is
in receipt of the following letter,
which may prove a warning to some
body else in this community:
Philadelphia, August 23, 1904.
TO the Prosecuting Attorney,
Salem, N. J.
On Friday last, August 10, man
representing to be an eye specialist
called upon Mrs. A. HI. Stewart.
Sharptown, N. j., and offered to help
her sight and hearing for $50 to be
paid in advance The lady agreed to
try his treatment, but not having the
money in hand started to draw a
check. AS she is an old lady, about
78, the man kindly offered to assist
her, and suggested that if she would
sign the check he would fill it up.
She trustingly did so supposing the
sum would be $50 as agreed upon. 1t
now appears that the, man drew up the
check for $65 and presented it the same
day at the First National Bank of
Woodstown receiving his money. He
had drawn the check to Bearer. y
The man also pretended to give the
old lady guarantee that il he did not
help her the money was to be refund
ed. This guarantee which he care
fully folded up before handing it to
her now turns out to be simply re-
ceipt for $65.
While working his game the man
made inquiry about the old lady's
spiritual welfare, showing her card
bearing the words "The Lord will
supply all your needs.
l am in possession of no further in
formation, but have written for
description Of the man and all facts in
the case. AS soon as received I shall
take pleasure in forwarding them to
you.
AS the man is1ikely to operate in
other parts of the country, 1 give You
this information, and would be glad if
you would have your officers keep a
lookout for him. In this instance at
least he is guilty of obtaining money
by criminal practice.
Very truly yours,

REV. MIR. CLIFFORD
ACCEPTS THE CALL


Philip H. Clifford, of Upland, Pa,
: formally accepts the call made to him
Ito become the pastor of the Pearl
Street Baptist Church, this city, to
succeed Rev. F. H. Shermer, recently
resigned. The letter of acceptance,
acknowledging the call is very earn
est one and the connection closes with
this paragraph:
My one aim as your pastor will be
to help you with myself, to get into
the attitude OF perpetual abandonment
Of self to Christ, so that the holy spirit
may in us, one and all, show the
world that life, which has no best
clothes for Sunday, but wears the spot
less raiment OF christianity every day,
and ever breathes forth the fragrance
of Gods love-
A brief bit of the new pastor is
furnished the Pioneer" by one very
close to Mr. Clifford, in Upland, Pa.
The convocation presents the follow
ing
The Rev. Philip Henry Clifford was
born and received his early education
in Brooklyn, New York. At the age
of fourteen he felt called of God to
give himself to the Ministry. After
nearly four years at Mount Herman
School founded by the great D. L.
Moody, Mr.. Clifford was compelled
to leave ON account of i'll health,
which prevented his entering Uni
versity However, he studied pri-
vately three years under most COM
petent tutor. He has been preaching
nearly ten years in which time he has
missed but one Sunday when he did
not conduct religious service of
some kind. For ten years he attended
the North Field Bible Conference
where he received Biblical instruc
tions from the greatest divines of both
Europe and America. In addition to
this he attened Grocer Theological
Seminary for one yaar. 1t was not
until as late as July ,21st, 1904, that
I. Mr.. Clifford had called an ordaning
council. On that date, he passed a
most satisfactory examination under a
council of churches from the North
Philadelphia Association, convened at
the call of the First Baptist Church
4 o. Manayunk The Rev. Alvah S.
Hobart, d. D., of Grocer Seminary
spoke warmly of Mr.. Clifford and
strongly advocated his ordination.
Letters were sent to the council re-
commencing Mr.. Clifford, by the
Rev. A. G. Dixon, D. ;, of Boston,
Mass, Rev. H. Allan Tupper, Jr.,
D. D., of Brooklyn, N. Y, Rev.
Samuel Mcbride, D. D., the Field
Secretary of the Baptist Home Mis-
sionary Society Of New York. The
Rev. DR.. F. H. Jacobs, of New York,
attended the council in person and
gave such testimony of Mr.. Clifford's
preaching ability and Christian char
acter that many Of the leading men in
the council said it was worth going a
long way to hear. It was delight
to the council to hear of Mr.. Clifford's
own statements and they heartily
voted his ordination which took place
in the evening. Rev. G. E. Cordo,
D. D., of Philadelphia, formerly a
pastor Of Bridgeton, recommended Mr..
Clifford to the pulpit committee OF the
Pearl Street Church. In past years
Cod has greatly owned Mr.. Clifford s
efforts and we trust that Bridgeton
will be greatly blessed in his ministry.

The supreme court has affirmed the
lower court in the case of J. M. Arri-
son VS.. Company D, North Dakota
National Guard:
This is an action to foreclose q
mechanics lien. The complaint al
leges that the defendant, Company D,
North Dakota National Guards" is q
corporation organized under the au-
thority of Section 1425a, Revised Codes
Of 1899; that said corporation contract
ed with the defendant o. T. White for
the erection of an armory building up
ON certain lots in Devils Lake; that
the plaintiff performed work, labor and
services as a subcontractor on said
building of the agreed and reasonable
value of $43.47; that he filed his claim
for a lien therefor under Chapter II
of the Civil Code, and asks judgment
for that sum with interest, and the
foreclosure Of his lien. The defend
ants joined in a demurrer to the COM
plant on the ground that it does not
state facts sufficient to constitute a
cause of action. The demurrer was
overruled and defendants appeal from
the order overruling the same.

ARMORY SUBJECT TO LIEN
Supreme Court Passes on Question Affect
ing Armory of Company D at Devils
Lake.

The single contention of the appel
lants is that an armory building erect
ed and owned by corporation organ
lied under Section Hasa, Revised
Codes, is not subject to mechanics
liens. This section was enacted as
chapter 101. Laws of 1897. T..
The courts syllabus says: "A cor
poration organized under Chapter 101,
Laws Of 1897, which authorizes three
or more members or ex-members Of
the national guard to incorporate for
the purpose of erecting an armory
building, is private and not public
corporation; and, save as to taxes and
charter fees, which are excepted by
the act, it has the same powers and
Is subject to the same duties and la
bilities as any other private corpora
