Elmers Seeks Better Train Service

Elmer, N. j., June 2.-In Conjunc-
tion with residents of Bridgeton, Elmer
residents are endeavoring to secure
better train service for the summer,
firm in the belief that il the West Jer-
sey & Seashore Company once grants
the request there will be sufficient
passenger traffic to warrant late night
trains the year round. There is no
train north now later than 5.24, and it
is desired to have one up about z
O'Clock, and one south about 1890 or
later. 1t is believed that this can be
done easily when the new electric ser
vice is put in operation.

Schenck, he made pass at him, the
brass knuckles with which he was
armed grazing Sohenck's neck. AS

drew revolver and pointing at At

pulled the gun, Atkinson stumbled
over something, and fell, otherwise
the bullet would undoubtedly have
lodged in the boys body. The fellow

several stitches in the wound to draw
it together. Last evening the parents
Of the boys called upon Mayor Payne
for assistance and the Mayor is to day
having men work upon the case. The
matter is difficult one, owing to the
fact that the boys were SO frightened
that they cannot give an accurate
description of the fellow. In addition
to having the city authorities work
on the case, reward has been offered
for the apprehension of the fellow,
given by the parents of the boys.

on South Pine street early Tuesday
morning.

threw it out the back door into the
yard. 1t was then left to burn.
Several neighbors saw the flames
and became greatly excited. One ran
to send in an alarm, but before reach
ing the box it was all over.

the hoopoe is a humble looking creature
in its red sandy plumage, barred with black;
but In its way 1t is beautiful, 1t has a large
curved beak, and its head is adorned by q
crest OF stiff feathers The hoopoe 10 well
known In Asia as we'll as in Europe. There
is a Spanish legend concerning It which has
been related by Kin gsley.
The story goes that once upon q time
the holy birds who run up and down on the
Prado at Seville among the ladies' pretty
feet had golden crowns on their heads. One
day the birds and beasts all went to pay hon.
age at the court of King Solomon; among
them, Of course, were the hoopoes. When
their turn came they made their request.
which was tbs the king would pray for them
that their crowns might be char ged.
So King solomon prayed, and Instead
of golden crowns they received crowns OF
feathers. Ever since then, the legend con-
tinues, the hoopoes live as merrily as crickets
in an oven, and also have the honor Of bearing
the name Of his Most Catholic Majesty King
Solomon."
