w. b. TRENCHARD
SERIOUSLY HURT

Freeholder William B. Trenchard
met with an accident Tuesday
that caused him serious injuries. In.
deed he was fortunate to escape with
his life.
Mr.. Trenchard Tuesday started
with his horse and buggy for Sayre's
Neck and the accident occurred on the
brow of the hill near Rocap's Run.
Mr.. Trenchard was driving slowly
along, when he heard the rattle of a
wagon behind him. He drew his
horse over to the side of the road.
Suddenly Mr.. Trenchard nsted a
horses head alongside his buggy, and
then was shocked by collision. The
| wagon behind him hooked into Mr..
Trenchard's axle, and the wagon was
overturned completely right upon the
horse Mr.. Trenchard had presence of
mind enough to speak to his horse
which stopped. When the wagon fell
over on the animal it started step,
but again Mr.. Trenohard spoke and
the horse stood perfectly still.
Mr.. Trenchard was thrown heavily
upon his left shoulder, and with much
difficulty crawled out of the capsized
wagon.
The driver who had collided with
him had disappeared. The fellow did
not for moment stop to give Mr..
Trenchard any assistance, and Mr..
Tren9hard has no idea who he was.
passerby came along and brought
Mr.. Trenchard home. A physician
was called and made careful exam
ination of Mr.. Trenchard. He found
him suffering from torn ligaments
and muscles but no bones were broken
Mr.. Trenchard was ordered to bed,
and is in rather serious condition.

exciting meetings that the Board OF

last evening, when an adjourned ses

naming the new West Millville School

The motion to call the school the

fought against by members of the

most OF the time. This fall he got SO
he could walk little by the aid of
his nurse and took his last walk
around the room yesterday but it was
rather feeble effort. Last night his
lungs filled rapidly and there was
some evidence of an inward abscess.
The deceased was a man of affairs and
in all his public life had the confidence
OF the people as to integrity and
honesty. He was Mayor ten consecu-

yerrs. He filled the office of Justice
OF the Peace also for years. He was a
graduate of the Berwick. Maine, High

First Commander of Lyon Post, g.

He was born on October ID, rs years

DICKERING FOR
TENANT HOUSES,

There has never been a time in
bridgeton's history when There were
fewer houses idle than now. There
are none idle, as matter of fact that
Is, none that are habitable, and some
that do not afford very many advan-
tages are being occupied because it is
that or nothing.
There were never more houses in
Bridgeton than now. There was
never time when they were more oc-
cupied. consequently Bridgeton must
have bigger population than ever.
1t an easy guess that the city has a
population of $4,000.
There are many people looking for
houses in which to live. There are
several families to move in Bridgeton
the moment there is a house vacant
for them. The demand is unprece.
dented.
Men who own aud manage tenant
houses are constantly endeavoring te
add to their possessions. There are
several pending deals for properties.
Some 'of them may soon be closed
But owners.are not as anxious to sell
as they were few years ago. They
have no difficulty in getting tenants,
and in many instances they have nc
trouble in having their rents paid il
advance.
Several houses are now in course Of
erection here. Others must soon be-
There must be places to live. The
high price of building materials is ths
only thing that prevents a big build
ing boom at this time. Still real es
tate is as low as it will ever be, ane
this will Offset the increase in the
cost of materials. It is certain tina
there will be considerable building il
the Spring-there will have to be.

Hunters Looking For Trouble

hunters Looking For Trouble.
Miilville, N. j Nov. 23.-Indica
tions are now stronger than ever that
the law prohibiting the shooting OF
deer will be tested in the courts.
Game Wardens Phifer and Connor re-
turned to this city last night, and re-
port that. while a chase actually took
place on Wednesday, no dear have yet
been killed. so far as they know.
They stated that Andrew Snyder,
an old deer hunter and owner of a
large sawmlll at Cumberland, who
was reported two weeks ago to have
been hunting deer, made his appear.
anoe in the. deer woods yesterday.
He met the officers at Doughty's
tavern. in the centre of the forest,
and told them that as he bad the name
lie might as we'll also have the game.
He showed them the shells in his
gun, and requested the warden to &C.
company him to a deer track After
half mile walk the dogs found a
scent, and he ordered them off.
The wardens warned him that If he
shot they would at once arrest him.
Late in the afternoon Snyder return.
ed without any game, and the wardens
have telegraphed for orders as two
whether they had the right to arrest
him for the chase.
1t is believed here that Snyder broke
the law in that he attempted to take
a deer. which is specified by the stat
ute to be. unlawful.
Many of the sportsmen believed that
Snyder was simply 'bluffing" the
wardens, but they were amazed to-
day when they learned that the old
hunter had actually started chase in
the presence of the officers.

CORPORATION TO
CONTROL PROPERTY.

A tenant house trust. That is the
latest scheme proposed for Bridgeton.
In other words it is proposed to form
corporation to take over all of the
many tenant houses now owned bv IN
dlvidnals in Bridgeton, and have rhem
controlled by one head and all under
one management.
The scheme was thought ont and
proposed by a gentleman who owns
and rents eight different properties in
this city. He has been landlord for
number OF years. and he finds the
business quite unsatisfactory, and
says the returns upon the money he
has invested are not sufficient.
The scheme he is proposing and en-
deavoring to interest others in is sim
pie. He would have a corporation
formed under the New JERSEY laws.
with an Issue of ample capital stock.
Any person who desired to invest in
the stock at the par rate could do so.
He would then have the company have
an expert pass upon the various tene
ment house properties placing upon
them fair value. The properties
would then be bought by the corpora
tion and the seller would receive stock
IN che corporation in lieu of cash foY
the purchase price. The promoter
urges that the houses thus controlled
and managed by single head would
be leased to much better advantage
and the collection of the rents would
be assured. The houses could be cared
for as whole and thus maintained
and kept in shape much cheaper, than
while owned by various persons.
Painting and papering contracts could
be made for number of houses al
once and the work could be much
cheaper. Supplies could be purchased
IN quantities, thus getting advantage
of discounts.
The promoter is firmly convinced
that his dividend upon stock would be
much better than the returns upon the
money invested in his individual
houses. while personally he would be
relieved OF much care and annoyance
in managing the properties.
A corporation owning and controlI
Ing practically all of the tenant
houses, it is claimed would have alb
soiute knowledge of all tenants and nc
advantage could be taken of the cor
poration as is now taken of the indi
vidual owners. The matter has peeu
proposed to several house owners and
they are carefully considering the
matter in all its phases. It has al
ready appealed to many very strongly.

pADGETT OUT
IN CALIFORNIA

Weeks ago the "Pioneer" told OF
the very mysterious disappearance of
Henry Padgett. the farmer of Beebe
RIM, It will be remembered that he
drove in town for lumber. In no way
was he prepared to take trip. His
wife expected his return at once.
Padgett left his team at the Evans
livery stable and no more was seen of
him by Mrs. Padgett. He was traced
TO MillviIle. From that point there
was no clue.
Some years ago Padgett was in Gal
jfornia. He remained there for some
time During the past year he has
talked much of going back, and oft
times pleaded with his wife to accom-
pany him there. She declined. She
owns here fine farm and is highly
prosperous.
1t is said that il one once gets in.
fstuated with California. the infatu
alton never dies. 1t is further said
that after one has left the beautiful
state there is always a call to return.
Since Padgett lett here Mrs. Pad
gett has made diligent inquiry for
him. She could not think that he
had wilfully left her. and felt that if
be had he was not responsible for his
act. She greatly feared foul play.
Friends of Mrs. Padgett urged her
to learn where Padgett was in Cali
fornia when he was there some years
ago. Sne learned that he had lived
in Riverside, the very centre of the
orange country. Mrs Padgett was
then advised to write the postmaster
Of Riverside for information concern
ing Henry Padgett. She did SO, &C
companying her letter with complete
description of her husband.
This week she received the welcome
news that Padgett was then follow
ing his former vocation in the orange
grove Mrs. Padgett was overjoyed.
Friday she sent him telegram
urging him to come home, and she
confidently expects he will respond
to her appeal and start eastward just
as soon as possible.

AN UNDERGROUND BATTLE WITH BIRDS

cent CLEAN, and the roof of the cave sparkleo1
as if thousands Of gems were hanging all
about, ready to be plucked. But perhaps the
most remarkable feature of this strange place
was the plants that everywhere seemed to
spring up and thrive, though in every case
they were as pale and white as chalk. they
were the ghosts of plants, utterly devoid OF
color, and how they got in there was mys-
terry to our traveller; but the natives explained
that the birds brought in the seeds to feed
their young, and thus the subterranean hora
obtained footing.
AS they moved by the spot where the river
disappeared, a strange, roaring sound became
apparent, and in a moment the natives had
rushed forward with wild shouts, waving their
torches and clubs like demons.
The result was deafening. Myriads of birds,
without warning, seemed to fill the air, dart
ing down at the lights, to be beaten to the
ground by their merciless foes; soaring IN
great columns and dashing themselves ut the
invaders, so that at one time the naturalist
was completely driven back. The screams of
the birds and men brought out all the dor
mant echoes of the cavern, and the scene en-
acted was one that few have witnessed.
The old birds, that rushed at the invaders
SO savagely, were endeavoring to protect their
Young, and as the natives attempted to scale
the cliffs their cries became still fercer.
They struck at the men with their wings, en-
deavoring in every way possible to dislodge
them, but only to be beaten down with sticks
and torches, until the very floor was paved
with their soft bodies.
The nests were thrown down or knocked
from the walls and so thickly were they
packed that it was estimated that the ma
