DeDlfOFd Institute.

At the meeting of the Board of Trustees
of the Dyptford Insttute held on the 5sh
inst, an4ther donation of books was receiy
ed from Mrs. T. j. Curry, North Broad
street, which W g accepted with thanks.
The Deptford Institute, with its Free
Library and Reading Room, is doing an
excellent work and should be encouraged
and helped in every way possible ny the
whole community, not only in taking out
books, bus by ass sting IN keeping up the
number of proper volumes, or contributing
cash to the fluids OF the Board, so they can
purchase the books and put them in eircu-
lation
The Deptfosd Institute gives one or two
first GLASS lectures each year also, and while
there is no charge for admission there are
necessary expenses in the way of lecturer,
lanterns, rooms, ETC., aAat must be met
from funds of the Institute, and this OF
course reduces the amount that can be ex-
pended for books, and we all know is abb
solutely necessary 20 have books TO keep up
library.
These gift are thorongly appreciated, and
we can but hope there viii be more of
them. Responsibility,

The Voting Machine.

The friends of the voting machine hay
ing won the State election, it is not likely
we will see less Of this appliance in she
near future, therefore to print some of the
failures of the Third Ward machine may
serve as an aid TO future voters. An aged
citizen rung the bell, then called out that
he had voted the wrong ticket He wanted
to vote for the Democratic candidates, but
when he found himself ineased 10 green
with a lot Of triggers in front OF him he
pulled the first one He was mad and ner-
vous. and then couldn't get out. But he
got down on all fours and crawled out.
One of the election officers then crawled in,
pushed up all the triggers. "and there was
no vote.
An hour later a prominent business man
came in. He closed the cnrtain, and there
was a long pause. Then the machine be-
gan to rock, and the Gagged business man to
holler-''let me out of this - thing. y
The Republican workers and election Off
GERS, who had enjoyed she failure of the
good old Democrat to vote, were seized
with panic. "Pull the top lever" they
shouted in chorus. "Blast the top lever''
came from the cage, let me out" Aud he
came, right through the side, and then and
there he vowed he would never go in again.
That evened up the score OF losses, SO far as
known, but several voters have since told
US they didn't vote as they wanted to,
Our good friend, Assistant Secretary Of
State Smith, who says "Only bribe givers
and bribe takers want to get rid of the ma
chine, " ought to go about the Third Ward
ana learn what people think of his pet
voting scheme.

Grand Lodge |. 0. 0. F.

The annual sessions OF the grand lodge,
l. o. o. F., Of New Jersey, ana the grand
encampment, /. o. 0. F., Of New jersey,
will take place in Trenton Tuesday, We'd
nesday and Thursday, November 19, 20
and 81, and it is expected that more than
500 delegates will be in attendance at the
sessions of the two bodies. The grand en-
campment will meet Tuesday, November
10, and the grand lodge Wednesday and
Thursday, November 20 and 81.
One Of the principal matters to come be-
fore the session of the grand encampment
will be that of changing the date of the
sessions and the location. 1t is desired by
many Of the members TO meet twice a year
in different parts of the State, the argu-
ment being advanced that this plan will
tend to increase interest in this branch of
Odd Fellowship. The only Office for which
there is contest is that of grand junior
warden. Stephen Schleif, Of Plainfeld,
and DIR. John Fl. Dufield, of Phillipsburg,
are in the lead for the Office Frank jun
mel, of Trenton, has no opposition for
grand scribe.
The question Of the location of the pro-
posed Odd Fellows home for aged and in
digent members will be one Of the most i'm
portant matters to be considered by the
grand lodge. The home association, which
is in charge of thesOdd Fellows Home on
Pennington avenue, Trenton, has offered to
sell the property TO the grand lodge for
SIS, 900. This figure probably will deYelop
support for other locations that will be sub
mitted, as il is thought this amount is
large
Acting Grand Master DIR. Frank Crow
ther, of Perth Amboy, will preside az she
session. There is a keen contest on for
grand warden, with six candidates in the
field. Thomas E. English, Of Ridgewood,
the present grand marshall, and Rev. B. C.
Lippincott, of Newark, former chaplain,
are in the lead at present for the position.
There is also contest for grand secretary
between Harry S. Pine, Of Trenton, she
present incumbent, and Frank S Jummell
also of Trenton.
Grand Sire. E. s. Conway, Of Caicago, is
expected to attend the second day Of the
session, Thursday. he is to be escorted
from the Hotel Windsor to the Masonic
Temple Hall, where the sessions will be
conducted, by the patriarch militant, the
uniformed rank of the Odd Fellows.

TWeniy-fOur Millions in Twelve Weeks
New Prudential Policy Is Popular.

The Prudential Insurance Company an
nounces that twenty-four million dollars of
Ordinary life insurance was issued during
the first twelve weeks that the new low
cost policy of that Company was put on
the market, demonstrating the pullic wsl-
come given the new policy.
The Prudential states that in comparing
the rates of its new policy wish the average
rates of 102 other life il Eslrance companies
of the world, the rates on the Prudential's
new policy are the lowest, consistent with
libsralty and safety, offered by any COM
pany Of corresponding size, Importance and
responsibility.
The agents Of The Prudential quote the
following interertiDg statements, from pol
icy-holders and to the reasons for selecting
the new policy of The Prudential:
s'You Prudential people have bested every
thing in life insurance. "My Prudential
policy is the cheapest and best l have;n
''The Prudeutial's new policy gives me
more for my money Policy eliminates
all elements Of uncertainty" New Pru-
dental policy beats any policy | have ex-
amined;n Rates much lower than those
charged bv other companies" Guarantees
are better than estimates. / recommend
The Prndential;' Gives the public what
they really demand;" Keeping the divl-
dends in my pocket looks good to me;o II
buy the Prudential policy because every
thing is guaranteed !" "You haye certainly
eliminated competition;" sWe have been
looking for just this policy" THE rates
alone, backed by the name Prudential, ;
catch the public favor.

Road Building.

During the past two years Woodbury. has
done something in the way OF oermanent
road building brick pavement on Cooper
street, Macadam 90 Aberdeen Place and
Bitulithic on Delaware street. The oulY
remaining street Of our city that is subject
to severe usage is Broad street and Council
has advertised for bids 30 improve portion
Of that from the bridge to the south line OF
Hunter street. All agree that Broad street,
especially the Packer ) hill portion, requires
expert treatmspt with permanent material
to make yfng road, because the founda-
tion is springy and travel heavy, 2But the
balance of our city Hunter, E1clid, Centre
Hopkins, High, jackson, West Centre, Ger
man, aud streets in the First Ward. These
can well be put in good permanent condit-
ion out Of the annual appropriation for
streets.
There is no secret in Macadam road max
ing as was shown in the Aberdeen Place i'm
provement A little excavating. little
stone and much rolling, and the work is
done, almost forever
Aberdeen Place, from Broad street to the
railroad, cost about $500; Woodbury. is
annually expending from $4,000 TO $4,000
for street repairs" Why not spend, say
So, 900, each year in giving two streets a
coating of stone, and stop the waste of
hauling gravel that goes into the gutter with
the first heavy rain storm?
There need be no further issues of bonds
for street Improvements, and we can have
excelleut streets, BY exercising wise
Judgement that successful men apply to
their own affairs.

evidence for the defense, aud that
Hay wood had not been connected at
any point with any of the overt acts
confessed by Orchard except by dis
credited testimony of Orchard himself
Senator Borah confined himself
largely to the legality of the ques-
ton of admissibility. He spoke for
an hour. forcefully reviewing the
evidence and claims made by the de-
Tense, which he said failed to show
by any member of the alleged con-
spiracy between the mineowers and
the Pinkertons that any such conspir-
acy existed. He took the position
and quoted authorities to show that
conspiracy can only be considered
after the introduction of direct evil
dence of a conspiratoI.
Mr.. Richardson argued that con-
spiracy had been shown by the con
tributory effect of all the evidence
itroduced by the defense and closed
with the statement that if the court
saw at to exclude the evidence bear
ing on the Colorado situation intro

defense would be satisfied to see their

OPENING FOR DEF ENSE.
Beginning with the Occur d'Alenes
troubles of 1899, Mr.. barrow called
the courts attention once more to
the fact that William ID. Haywood
at that time had nothing to do with
the general organization of the
western members of the Federation
of Miners, but was a member of q
local union hundreds of miles from
the scene of trouble. As to the EN-
ployment of detectives, Darrow de

''The state was allowed through
Orchard to ring in something about a

In addition to preparing the code,
the commissioner is given authority
and instructed to make a report EN-
bodying suggestions where in his
opinion the code is cumbersome OF
where it is lacking in some point, for
the benefit of the legislature. This
report will be separate from the
code and will reflect the opinions OF
the bench and bar of the state, as Mr..
MacLane said he intended to ask
for suggestions from them, When
the Legislature is presented the code
for its approval it will then be up to
that body to act on the suggestions
or not.
The report will be in regard to the
changes and notifications that should
be made in the mode Of procedure
so that it may be clearer and more
concise. The suggestions, however
will not pertain TO any changes oil
the general method of procedure.
