the Grand jury that we can properly
endorse the suggestion that recommen-
dation be made to the next legislature
on the subject of public administrator
ship.
In connection with the investigation
of the judiciary Department special in
quiry was instituted by the Grand jury
as to certain missing documents per-
tanning to the Spreckels- Brown con-
troversy, to which attention had been
called. While nothing of satisfactory
character could be determined regard
ing this special matter, yet upon the
whole we are satisfied that the inquiry
has been valuable in that it has shown
the present system of caring for do
cuments on public file to be more tho
rough than formerly existed. There
fore there should be an increased gem
eral confidence throughout the commu-
nifty in regard to it, There is, how
ever, urgent need of greater security
for documents temporarily or perma-
nently on file in the judiciary Depart
ment, and provision should be made by
law for the registration in the office of
the Registrar of Conveyances of all
probate records.
Incidental and subsequent to the ex-
animation of the affairs of the judiciary
Department the Grand jury summoned
the auditor, as also the deputy auditor,
to answer inquiry as to the conduct of
the audit department. 1t seemed per-
tinent to ask: How could it be possi-
BE for such condition to exist III the

NELSON GETS

Battling Nelson was given the de

with Terry McGoyern at the National
Athletic Club at Philadelphia last
night. The big crowd that was pres
ent was not at all pleased with the
fight, and there was a strong impress
sion that it was fixed "
The big auditorium was packed to
the doors, many from a distance hav-
ing come to Philadelphia to see the
fight The betting at the ring side was
slightly in favor of Nelson.
In the first two rounds the fighting
was slow and clinching frequent: Nc
Govern had the best of the argument
in these two rounds. Disapproyal was
expressed by the audience with jeers
and hisses.
In the third round the real fighting
began, Nelson gaining strength and
McGovern becoming weaker Mccoy
ern also seemed to have the best of the
third.
Iu the fourth Nelson came forward
strong and during this and the follow
ing rounds was easily the master of
the ring. McGovern stayed until the
end of the sixth.

DO You Want $40 +?

Failure of the courts 10 obey the
mandate of an old law relating TO
horse stealing has been revealed
through the city Of Philadelphia be
ing called upon for the first time in
more than a quarter of Il century TO
pay reward for the arrest and con
viction of a horse thief.
Through the application of Frank
Moles, of Norristown, the county com
missioners have been directed to pay a
reward of S25 to him under the law
referred to, which was enacted by the
Legislature in 1921, and which applies
TO every county in Pennsylvania.
Early in January "A horse belonging
to Charles X. Smith, of Chestnut Hill,
was stolen by Joseph HasSon. Moles
captured HassOn, whom he handed Ov-
er to the authorities OF Philadelphia
county. On January % he was con-
victed and sentenced to six months
Imprisonment.
MOles in some manner learned of the
existence of the law and made appli-
cation for payment of the $50 reward
by law, together with the additional
amount Of cents for every mile neces-
Sarily travelled. When the matter was
brought TO the attention of the COM
missiOners, they were amazed, but af
ter an investigation by Commissioner
Anderson, who is Il lawyer. the fact
that the law made such provision was
discovered.
1t is expected that as result of
Moles' action, the commissioners may
be flooded with applications for re
wards. According to the police rec
Ords, the crime of horse stealing is not
rare, and the thief is usually captur-
ed
The act of 1921 reads:
Whosoever after the passage of this
act, shall pursue and apprehend any
person who shall have stolen any mare,
horse or gelding within any county OF
this Commonwealth, on the conviction
of the person so apprehended, shall be
! entitled to reward of $50 and cents
for every mile necessarily travelled.

RO ADMINISTERS

The township supervisors, three III
good road act Of April ~ 1903, met on
the 9th inst. the first Monday of March,
for the purpose of organization, &c. as
required by the act. Just aS was pre-
dicted by many they have no easy time
of it in finding suitable persons for
road masters.
/ Associate Judge Frank q. Bee, who
was in town Saturday explained some
of the difficulties that his own town
ship-Derry-haS to contend with and
, he ventured the opinion that cyerT
other township of the county will have
the same problem to solve.
The Derry supervisors divided the
township roads into four sections re-
curing four road masters. OF this
number up To Saturday only one road
master was obtained and the worst
part of it was that no one could see
where the other three are to come
from. Not only in Derry, but in other
townships of the county, Judge Blee
stated. there is scarcity of men suit
able for the position so situated that
/ thev can give their time exclusively or
even to any considerable extent to
work on the roads Men in the cOun-
try generally live on land, which re
| quires about all their time. or they
| have other business, which they could
hardly be induced to relinquish for the
position of road master with its re-
muneration OF probably $l.50 per day.
At the same time, Judge Blee states,
the people of the county realize that
the State is very much in earnest and
that to keep up with the general prog
ress of the times improved methods
will have to prevail i'll road building.
Every effort is being conscientiously
made, he said, to comply with the
Sproul's good road act of April -,
1908, and he has no doubt notwith-
standing trouble in finding road mast
ers that the demand will be met even
tuallv and that all the difficulties in
cidental to the change of the system
will be adjusted.
Instead of repairing the highways a.
has been customary III the past, by fill
ing mp the middle with ground thrown
in from the sides of the road. repeat
ing the same process year after year,
from now on probably IA section of
township road each year Will be en-
tirely rebuilt employing approved
methods of construction. Those who
favor this plan believe that the long
stretch of bad roads in Derry town
ship extending from the foot Of n Dan
Vile hill around through Washing
tonville to Strawberry Ridge i'll this
way in few years time could be much
improved and that the additional out
lay would be scarcely perceptible.
