New Line to Coast

The Pennsylvania Railroad has a corps
of engineers at work surveying the land
between Winslow Junction, 25 miles be.
low Camden, and Little Egg Harbor with
view ultimately of constructing a direct
four track line between the two points.
Officers of the company figure that if the
line could be built it would result in the
cutting down by 100 miles the water line
distance between Philadelphia and New
York, and would be great saving to the
company in its shipments of coal to the
latter city.
Another result which the company be-
lieves would follow the construction of
such line is the rapid development of
the beach land near Tuckerton and the
opening of profitable seashore resorts
along Tuckerton bay. There is a channel
between Tuckerton Bay and the Atlantic.
which the Pennsylvania plans to deepen
and utilize for its water shipments by the
construction of new piers and bulkheads.
In the event of the Pennsylvania put
ting through the project, an attempt will
be made to link the resort by trolley with
the other prominent resorts along the
coast

vicinity short time.
Clark is about BOY years old and weighs
$50 pounds.
At the time of the shooting. Thomas
Kelly, the bartender informed Clark, who
boarded at the hotel with his wife, that it
was time to close. CLARK then asked for a
latchkey. Kelly insisted that he had none,
and told Clark it was time to go to bed.
Barrett also supported the words of his
bartender, whereupon the hotel proprietor
and the boarder clinched, with the result
that Clark was put out of the place.
1t is said that Barrett told him to stav
away from the hotel Clark insisted that
he should be allowed to remain a week.
Remaining on the outside little while,
Clark knocked at side door, and the
summons was answered by the hotel man.
The opening of the door was the signal for
Clark to discharge revolver at Barrett,
the bullet entering just below the heart.
Several in the hotel went to the assist
ance of Barrett and some started in pur.
suit of Clark, among the latter being
Officer Grover, of KinkOra.

William, alias "Crapper" Jackson, q
negro, about 25 years old, who has been
out of state prison only about year after
serving three years for chicken stealing, is
again making haste to get back to that
place.
He has been hanging around Kresson
| for some time. On Wednesday night
about nine o'clock William Shumen be-
came alarmed by the barking of his dog
and on investigation found ''Crapper" at
his back fence. The negro played of
drunk and was ordered off the place.
About midnight Peter Schwinn heard a
racket at his hen house. He and his bov
went out and found "Crapper" sneaking
away. Here he also played off drunk.
but he had taken no chickens.
Toward noon Mrs. John Stockum missed
rooster and several hens. and when the
neighbors were told of it and the actions
of "Crapper" the night before became
known he was at once suspected. He was
seen IN the woods back of the Stockum
place and on the Mill road several times
on Thursday, seemingly looking for pal.
but it was not known that he stole the
chickens until later, when some one found
bag containing a rooster and three hens,
all picked, in the woods where the negro
had been. A searching party was then
formed and Jackson was chased about and
was once shot at, but he lodged through
the woods and swamps and could not be
captured Justice Brick and Constable
Cline, of Marlton, came on the scene and
helped in the chase, but night came on
and he was lost.
Jackson is about feet 6 inches tall, and
has thumb off one hand He will no
doubt be arrested very soon.
