No Newspaper Time Tables.

The News has been notified that the
time table of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
which has been published for years on our
first page is to be discontinued and that
the railroad company will not expend any
more money in that direction. The letter
which gave this information states Sin
view OF the fact that the condensed
time tables now published in the news.
papers are of little value to the public, it
has been decided to discontinue the pub
LEGATION of them in the newspapers. The
remarks are strictly correct. The time
tables, as published, were of ''liGtle value
to the public. They gave the time to get
away from town but no information how
to get home was deemed necessary. If
the railroad company would be a little
more liberal and spend money in an effort
to give the public full information it
would be to its credit.
According to report the new system is
at the instance of the Pennsylvania Rail
road and will be followed by the other
AOoNo IL 10 COnlOnuCQ bAC buICduS
of information in stations, hotels and other
public places are sufficient for the needs
of all travellers.
In 1906 the Pennsylvania Company is
uted 10000 time tables. 1t is held
that these millions of folders and cards
are sufficient to advertise trains without
recourse to the newspapers. Prior to the
first OF last January country newspapers
printed the time table in very complete
form, giving much information, receiving
pay in the shape of an annual pass Rul-
ings and laws made it appear necessary to
cut off the passes, and. Immediately the
Railroad company began to curtail space
and with the fact that hard cash, which
the poor corporation could not afford to
spend, was to be put up, the time table
was curtailed to the dimensions which
made it truly 'of little value LIBERAL
ty and desire to give the public informa-
ton and accommodation would reverse
this situation The matter of folders and
small time tables is all right, but if this
is to be successful or beneficial there will
have to be a change from the custom that
has prevailed. Inquiry for the small time
tables has frequently been met with the
reply that there are none on hand or none
yet, received, regardless of the fact
that the change in the time is from two to
three days old
While it is true that the railroads have
established many bureaus of information
and distributed millions of folders, it is
believed my many persons who travel fire
quently that the newspaper time table is
something akin to necessity. In the
suburbs and in many city residences may
always be found newspaper where tele-
phone connections with bureaus of in
formation and racks of folders are want
ing.
The amount of money expended for thi
class of advertising is of little moment t.
the advertiser and does not very greatly
enrich the bank account of the publisher
The benefit to those who use the trains i
great.

and the History of the Christian Science

impartial and true story of Mrs. Eddy and

Medford.


The town is somewhat alarmed over the
fires that are becoming too frequent for
the comfort of property owners. Within
the past two months there have been three
fires. One did not reach disastrous pro-
portions merely because the flames failed
to reach the combustble contents of a
barn. 1t was about two weeks ago. On
Sunday morning the owner discovered
that flames had destroyed wood work and
some refuse in his barn, but absence of
draft kept the fire from the hay and straw
and the barn was not destroyed. This
barn, like another that was destroyed, was
not locked.
Last Sunday morning, about half-past
two o'clock fire was discovered in a barn
on Branch street, the property of Rebecca
and Lydia Branin. The building was
used mainly for pigeons and chickens
The latter were saved but 80 pigeons were
burned. This barn was locked every
/ evening and in order to set fire to it the
/ lock must have been broken. There was
reinsurance.
: 1t is a peculiar incident that all the fire.
! have occurred on Saturday night or early
/ ounuay morning. lnaI Jhey were OF IN
cendiary origin there is no doubt and eff
forts are being made to place the blam
where it belongs There is spirit of un
ruliness in the town on Saturday night
that is causing uneasiness and which mus
be given attention to.
The fire department also seems to nee
waking up. At the fire on Sunday morn
ing it was clearly demonstrated that ther
is urgent need for better management an
more hose.

terror and becoming faint when they
learned of the accident to the motorman,
who will survive his injuries There was
a wild break to jump from the car, but
no one was injured. The truck was re-
duced to splinters, and one of the four
mules attached to it was killed.

Judge Horner said the question of hold
ing court on Saturday had been brought
to his attention during the week, and on
this matter he had been spoken to by
members of the bar, and to those present
he asked for an expression of their
opinion The Judge said he was ready to
hold court on Saturday, or at any other
time that would be more satisfactory and
convenient to counsel and their clients or
on some day that would be less injurious
to business.
Prosecutor Atkinson said it was almost
the unanimous opinion of the bar that any
other day than Saturday would suit. He
favored any day and thought the middle
of the week would be good time.
Reginald Branch said Saturday suited
him, but he could not speak for the other
Burlington lawyers. as some other day,
perhaps, might be more suitable to them.
Eckard P. Budd said the idea of dis
pensing with Saturday court was more
for the convenience of the people of the
county than for members of the bar. Sat
urday, he thought, was the most incon,

that day suited the people or the lawyers

WHAT MOUNT HOLLY GAINS.


The Bell Telephone Company is rec
ognized throughout the world as stand

now placed at the disposal of Mount
Holly citizens or visitors anyone may be
assured Of the finest apparatus at his dis
posal He may call Omaha, Milwaukee,
or Dallas without the least fear that he
will not receive a prompt connection and
be able to hear distinctly. Bell Telephones
are everywhere from the central part of
Canada to Mexico, in England, and on
the continent. While at present connec
tons are limited commercially to about
/, $50 miles, there are many who do not
hesitate to say that future development
will eclipse the past and San Francisco
will frequently call Boston or Jackson
vile, and converse with as great ease as is
now possible between New York and
Philadelphia.
The Bell Telephone Company, of Phila-
delphia, and controlled companies, now
has 1865, 900 telephones in service in Phila
delphia and the surrounding territory
Its recent gains in that city have been
marvellous nearly DOUBLING its sub
scribers there in the past two years.
| Mount Holly is now watched by the Com
pany with great interest and it is hoped
that the citizens win be as progressive in
telephone matters as other cities in similar
locations. Coatesyille, Pa, nearly doubled
