Atlantic City, N. j., June THE
bodies of two boys who met a horrible
death by cremation on the beach have
been identified as those of Ordner ].
Delaney and William Jeffries, both of
this city, aged and years respec-
lively. The two boys were insep-
arabic companions. They had gone to
a brush heap OF pine trees on the
beach front at New Hampshire ave-
nue., which trees were to be used to
build a jetty They dug a hole beneath
the pile and crawled under. It is be-
lieved they had matches, for soon the
brush was ablaze, and before the boys
could crawl out they were cremated.
Their charred bodies were scarcely
recognizable. Firemen who responded
to put out the blaze did not know the
boys were under the brush until a
hoseman lifted one end of the brush to
get a stream of water under it. He
then saw the two burned bodies side

Safety Potter discovered that a police
man who was recently appointed had
been arrested once for larceny. once for
highway robbery, four times for breach
of the peace, three times for drunken
ness, and served two years in prison
for assault and battery. He was imme
diately dismissed from the service as
unfit to be on the police force
Colonel Sheldon Potter, director OF |
the department of public safety, |

first "chopping bee proved to be a big
blow to the 1O0-odd Republican clubs
scattered throughout the AZ wards.
He notified every oficeholder in the
seven departments under him that
hereafter they need not make the usual
political contributions to such clubs,
and also that membership in such clubs
will not in the future be considered
to hold public positions or
the means of obtaining preferment or
promotion in the public service.

sofa, the many expressions of

we believe this we shall wake up

There is still a great deal Of OPP

is no relaxing of effort we shall
