NJ. W. Newton,s new Enterprise.

A representative of the DEMOCRAT met
Mr.. M. W. Newton the other day and con-
graduated him on his recent acquisition of
real estate in Woodbury., and pressed him
to know what he had in view. The tract,
he said, extended along the railroad and
about four hundred feet west, and adioins
Joseph D. Green's eastern line. What
ought to be done, he said, was to open
new street from railroad avenue to Broad
street parallel with Centre and Hopkins
streets, but he had no idea that could be
accomplished now. His plans were not
fully matured, but he expected to open a
street as far as his holdings extended.
There is a demand in Woodbury., he said,
for neat, snug houses to rent from S12 to
SIS per month, and he thought of building
a few. 1t would be necessary for the city
to lay line Of sewer and water main, but
be had no doubt that Council would aid in
the enterprise to the extent Of furnishing
water and sewer.
Mr.. Newton believes now is the time to
extend Franklin street to Centre, when it
can be done with least trouble and expense.
The DEMOCRAT believes that the city
should secqed Mr.. Newton's plans to the
extent of furnishing water and sewer mains
on those streets, because the opening of
this land and the erection of class Of
houses such as Mr.. Newton proposes, means
not only increased city revenue, but new
citizens as patrons of all our business
interests.
Newton and Curtis avenues are monu-
ments to Mr.. Newton's enterprise; they
represent many thousands of dollars on the
city's tax duplicate; and this new PROPOSE
tion will no doubt contribute just as ma
terially to the city's advancement as they
have done.

BASE BALL.

The Clayton team arrived III cur city on
Saturday accompanied by about three hun
dred enthusiastic rooters with voices care
fully trained to the highest pitch, and
awoke the echoes of the silently pines
surrounding our ball park, and well might
they shout, for did not their favorite
pitcher, Brady, have our boys at bis mercy,
ably supported by his entire team, and
allowing but one man to reach third base
where he was thrown out while making
supreme effort to at least score one point
and save us the humiliation of shut-out,
but it was not to be, and Clayton went
home with four runs to their credit and
with the satisfaction of holding Woodbury.
down to four hits and no runs.
But for all that, Woodbury. did some
fine individual playing which would no
doubt have held the visitors down to at
least one run il, It had not been for the
numerous errors made in the most critical
stages of the game.
While Dopson was hit freely at times he
had several strike-outs to his credit besides
a number Of assists, and had it not been for
errors-but what is the use of apologizing,
they were beaten, and none but the speeta-
tors can complain.
Woodbury. showed what they could do in
the ball line yesterday when they defeated
Camden on their own diamond by score
of IA to II.

Junior Mechanics to go to Law.

The Junior Order United American Me-
chanics will again go to law. The Regulars
will sue the recently formed Order of
Independent Americans to recover $44, 900
said to be the overdue per capita tax owed
by the insurgent councils to the national
organization. An injunction will also be
applied for to prevent the Order Of United
Americans from declaring its objects to be
those of the Junior Order United American
Mechanics and from retaining the franchise
and paraphernalia now in possession of the
insurgent councils. Alexander NJ DeHaven,
attorney for the Regulars, is authority for
the above statements. He says that about
$3.50, 600 is now in the possession Of the
insurgent councils, which last Saturday at
Reading organized the Order Of Independ-
ent Americans.

devote themselves to the toilsome culture
which is the price of success. Whatever
aptitude for particular pursuits nature may
donate to her favorite children, she con-
ducts none but the laborious and the stu
dious to distinction.
There are statues and monuments over
the earth to men who have won renown.
There are portraits and paintings Of more
town. There are pictures in papers for
millions to scan of those who gained fame
during life-but where is the shaft that is
raised to the man who is helpful at home
to his wife? Alas! There is none, but the
moment is ripe to remedy such a neglect
and therefore this monument fashioned in
type we for that true hero erect. But as
he's too modest TO wish that his name be
on it in glory enrolled, that Others may
copy we'll proudly proclaim his virtues in
letters of gold. At dawn he will rise with
out waking his spouse and start up the
heater and range and see that warmth is
all over the house and then-without
thinking it strange he'll put on the ket-
tie and something to cook for breakfast,
the table he'll set so when his dear wife
hurries downward to look a joyful surprise
he will get. After supper at night to his
wife he will say, My dear, you are tired
l know. You've worked for the children
and me all the day without any stop"
(Which is So 'Now, I'll wash the dishes
and look after things while you have some
moments of rest.n If eyer an angel there
is without wings this man is surely the best
He'll sweep and make bread and the wash
ing he'll do in case there is no servant
about. The baby he'll hold and take care
of it, too, so his wife has chance to get out.
He'll never leave articles scattered around
for his wife to keep putting away. If eyer
martyr deserves to be crowned he does
and he will be some day. Now take off
your hats to This monument raised to the
man who is helpful at home and copy him
too, if you want to be praised by wives
and adored by your own. Although such
paragon never is seen on pedestals here
upon earth, in Heaven you II find him with
angels loud chanting his worth.

Struck by a Hurled Axe.

What by the slightest slip, might have
been murder was prevented by the head
of the axe which was hurled by James w.
Dalling at motorman James A. Pennington
striking the motorman's breast bone Dal-
ling had spent all Of last Sunday along the
river between National and Washington
Parks with crowd OF compaions. Dalling
and a friend wanted to leave sooner than
the others so they went to the trolley tracks
about one-half mile from Washington Park
and as the trolley car came along signaled
for it to stop. Pennington was unable to
stop the car soon enough to suit the pat
ienee of Dalling who was slightly sboozed =
so seeing that the car would pass them, he
seized the axe from his companion and toss
ed it at the motorman. The head of the
axe struck Pennington breast with great
force with the handle toward the men.
The blow was stunning and had the motor
man not had a firm hold OF his cranks he
affirms that be would have been knocked
to the floor. As it is he is badly bruised but
otherwise uninjured. Conductor Fuller
gave chase to Dalling and after struggle
in which both men were bruised, landed
his fnan When brought before Justice
Mahkfn, he gave his address as 329 Durfor
ST., Phila.
He was held under $500 bail for court
but could not be induced to diyulge the
name Of his companion.

The Ill-Fated Gravity Road.

The aerial railway at Washington Park
has been the scene of two serious accidents
within the last week. None have been fat
al but nevertheless the persons in both
have been seriously injured. Last Thurs
day, FIVE nurses from the Hahenmann Hos
pital, Philadelphia, were injured by one
car humping into another. This was be-
cause of carelessness of the brakemen who
we're not attentive enough to their duty.
Tuesday night Otto susmick 26 years old
Of 1903 Wesster ST., Phila., while enjoy
ing ride became happy and stood up in
his seat and attempted to hug his wife
who was in the car with him. The car
struck sharp curve and Susmick was
thrown headlong from the car. He landed
upon the roof Of the power building where
he was rescued by men sent by his wife
Although dazed he was able to go to Coop
er Hospital on the trolley where he had his
dislocated shoulder replaced.
Had Susmick fallen on his head instead
OF his shoulder it is probable that he would
have been killed Susmick was badly
shaken up but is reported to have left the
hospital last night. Mrs. Susmick told Of
her husbands rashness to the park author
tiles and they agreed that it was his own
fault.

The habit of treating those who are near
est and dearest to us with discourtesy, Is
one that clouds the sunshine of too many
homes. If you are young and looking for
your prince, just test his home conduct.
Do not be guided in your choice by what
young man is in your parlor; find out what
he is in his mothers sitting room. DO not
Judge him by the way he can tip his hat,
but by the way he treats the old, especially
his parents. The home where mutual con-
sideration rules is always happy one, If it
be the top fiat Of a cheap tenement or an
abode hut on the prairie. There should be
a certain respect observed in the most inti-
mate relationships. Wives have no more
right to search their husbands pockets than
they have to take the same liberty with an
acquaintance. We have no more right to
rob the baby's bank than to force the vault
Of a national bank. We may hurt the feel
ings of a society acquaintance and there is
no great harm done, beyond the estrange-
ment of two people who care but little for
each other; but when we stab the fond
mothers heart, that loved us with love
next IN tenderness to heavens, or wound
the sensitive feelings of brother or a sister;
life is not long enough to extract the sting
from memory. Loves opportunity will
soon vanish forever and out through the
sunset of life, the ones we love dearest and
best have flown away like birds to a sum-
mer land and our woods of endearment are
thrust back like voices that beat against
wall of rock.
Every young man in Woodbury. is
wanted Wanted from the street corners,
from the loafer's rendezvous, from the
idler's promenade; turn your steps into
the highway Of noble aim and earnest
work. There are prizes enough for every
successful worker, crowns enough for every
honorable head that goes through the smoke
Of conflict to victory.
There is within the young man an up
springing of lofty sentiment which con-
tributes to his elevation, and though there
are ODStdCleS To DC SuTmOu1beu anu ullI-
cuIties to be yanquished, yet with truth
for his watchword, aud leaning solely on
his own noble purposes and exertions, he
may crown his brow with honors He may
never wear the warriors crimson wreath,
the poets chaplet of bays, or the states
mans laurels; though no grand universal
truth may at his bidding be confessed to
the world, though it may never be his to
bring to a successful issue great political
sofution-to be the founder of republic
whose name shall be "a distinguished star
in the constellation of nations yea, more,
though his name may never be heard be-
yond the limits of his own neighborhood,
yet is bis mission none the less high and
holy one.
But why do 50 few young Of early prom

solves were radient as the colors Of the rain

answer is obvious. They are not willing to
