Inherits Two Fortunes.

Great surprise has been caused by the
sudden enrichment of a former Moores-
town young lady, Miss Lillian Condor
now Mrs Lillian Steelman Clayton. Left
an orphan when very young she was legal
ly adopted by Joseph H. Condor, and was
married January, 1899, to Harry U. Clay

to those who knew her for years, she was
reticent in talking of her family.

York paper year ago it was found that
Mrs. Clayton was one of the heirs to the
Jonathan Steelman estate worth $500, 900.

affairs are completed, Mrs. Clayton will

posed Upper Delaware River Club, at

country club that will comprise the resi-.
dents of the river towns between Burling-

rear of the grounds. and can be reached by
twenty trains a day. in an average time
of>thirty-nine minutes from Market street,

ton of the Pennsylvnia Railroad to give
still better service from Market street.
when they finish the work of elevating the
tracks through Camden. and also to run
trains from Broad street station, as soon
as the enlargement of the terminal is com
pleted. The club house is about sixteen
miles from Philadelphia, and there is a
good anchorage in front of the property
1t is expected to erect pier and boat
house, with accommodations for canoes
and small boats.
The handsome brown stone mansion will
be converted into an ideal club house,
with restaurant and sleeping accommoda-
lions for members. The large stable will
be equipped as an automobile garage.
The grounds are sufficiently large to allow
twenty or more tennis courts.
The proposed plan has received the fa-
vorable consideration of about one hun
bred and fifty members. The committee
in charge of the preliminary arrangements
consists of s. p Wetherill, Jr., G. NJ Will

The coming attraction at the Burling-
ton Auditorium, for Wednesday evening,
March z. will be Charles E. Blaney's well
remembered melodramatic sensational
More to be Pitied than Scorned," which
scored great triumph last season. Mr..
Blaney has exerted all of his best efforts
in making this attraction one which would
please the most blase of theatregoers and
in order to do this successfully had to take
such facts into consideration which he be-
came acquainted with in his varied and
extensive career as producer of melo-
drama. The play deals with the trials and
tribulations of one Julian Lorraine, the
leading man and matinee idol of the Am.
phion Stock Company, who through his
marriage to Viola Keith, clersyman's
daughter, has aroused the jealousy of his
managers wife; (whose unsought love she
had bestowed upon Lorraine) She in turn
enlists the services of Vincent Grant,
heavy man of the Amphion stock. whose
position as lead Lorraine was called upon
to fill. Through the Vaccinations of
these two, Miss Keith, now Mrs Lorraine,
was led to believe that Lorraine had a
former wife from whom he had not been
divorced; Mrs. Lorraine having been
shown forged marriage certificate to this
villany, Grant informs Violas father that
she is Lorraine's mistress, and that Lor-
raine caused her ruin. Viola, heart bro
ken by her fathers reproaches and Lor-
raine's supposed marriage, disappears for
period. of five years, in the course OF
which time she has undergone suffering
and privations which are inevitable Re
