%DIDN'TATTENDB BANQUET
BUT HEARD SPEECHES.

TRENTON, May 11.-Fraternal-
ism was truly demonstrated at the
semi-centennial celebration dinner of
Royal Arch Masons Wednesday night
in Masonic Hall, when a telephone
was so arranged before the speakers
that Grand Treasurer Charles Bech-
tel of the grand lodge of Free and
Accepted Masons of New Jersey could
lie in bed al his home and hear the
addresses. Mr.. Bechtel has been UNI
able to leave his home for three
years.
The committee in charge of the
banquet arranged with F. M. Comp
ton, manager of the Trenton district
of the Delaware and Atlantic Tele-
phone Company, to place a telephone
with ~megaphone attachment on the
rostrum in Masonic temple. This
was done and the transmitter was so
arranged that the voices of the speak
ers were caught by the specially SEN
sitized instrument and conveyed to
Mr.. Bechtel's ears while he was on
his sick bed.
The plan worked to perfection and
by it Mr.. Bechtel was able to hear all
OF the addresses made last evening as
plainly as though he has been pres
ent at the dinner.
Mr.. Bechtel is 70 years of age. He
has been prominent in Masonry for
about half a century. He has been
grand treasurer of the grand lodge
for many years and is a 33d degree
Mason, Scottish Rite.

ARE
J. BUYING LAND.
Special Cars Runs Twice Daily
10 The Site Near FOFds
The Price.

ior,I w, Wilbur, the land man, says
that fhe. reason he went into the real
estata business was because a man in
bthat business sells lots. And he does
sell lots+of lots. Coming here from
New brunswick, where he stirred up
the greatest real estate boom in
years. he has set this city on edge all
this week with the .crowding, laugh
ing open carloads of men and women
and Smith streetsst twice each day, at
$3.50 and 1880 o'clock, for Fords,
where the tract which the Wilbur
Company is developing is located.
The last two or three days two cars
have been necessary each trip to
transport the land and gift seekers.
NO fare is charged on the cars, which
are decorated with Wilbur banners.
1t is a funny sight to see the people
crowd aboard the car and jam them
selves in like the p%roverbial sardines,
all for the sake of a free ride over the
claybanks and sandhills and far
away.
Arriving at Fords and walking
over to the Wilbur tract, the scene Is
a humorous and yet a serious one.
The agents, they of the ready tongue,
drum into the ears of the people the
merits of the property and the rea-
sonableness of the price. Many of the
people, chiefly foreigners, are decid-
ing what shall be their home for
years to come, and they carefully
count over the savings which might
be invested in land or how much
would needs be taken off of the liv-
ing funds to pay for the lot, If there
is no bank account or savings to rely
upon. Many do not buy. Some go
solely to get a present, others, a few,
are actuated merely curiosity, but
they're all equal on the a and are
treated with every courtesy. The
gifts include frame pictures, curtains
and small wooden banks, containing
currency of the land.
Most of those who buy do so with
the avowed intention of erecting a
dwelling, and it is more than likely
tnat a settlement ol one anu ohe anu
a half store houses of various descrip-
tons will shortly cover the tract If
the sales bear out the expectations of
the real estate company.
The lots sell from $19 to $40 each.
The first payments required range
from So to SIS and the payments
thereafter are so cents a week.

doctors and derived no benefit from
any Of them. One doctor said he was
afraid to touch my hands, 80 you
must know how bad they were; an

the third said the sores were caused
by the dipping Of my hands in water

procured some of the Cuticura Soap
