TO WEED OUT SALOONS
IN BURLINGTON COUNTY.
Court States that Undesirable Kind
Will Have to Go-Wnl Make
Rigid Examination.

MOUNT HOLLY, Dec. S1.-Contrary
to expectation, none of the applicants
FOR license today were refused by Judge
Horner. In a statement from the bench,
he made it plain that at the next term
of court the process of eliminating UNI
desirable saloonkeepers and hotel men
from the license list would be begun,
and that hereafter applicants would he
subject to a most rigid examination
into the method OF conducting their
business, and that any one against
whom a reasonable remonstrance was
filed, or who was known to he guilty
of any loose management of his bust
ness, would surely be refused a license.
He asserted that it would be the
policy OF the court hereafter to re-
1uce the number of saloons in the
county, and that only those who came
TO be known as the keepers of the very
best and most orderly places could hope
for renewal of their licenses.

CARE FOR CHILDREN
GUARDIANS SOCIETY MAKES
ANNUAL REPORT.
Recommends Severe Punishment for
Those Who Wi1fully Abandon In
fants-Free Homes Provided.

0t
TRENTON. Dec. 3L-The State Board Of
Children's Guardians has submitted to Gov
eruor Stokes its annua1 report, showing
that during the year ending October 81
there were 147 commitments, or thirty-three
less than during the preceding year. There
are now 66 children in the care of the
board.
The board points out the necessity of
providing institutions for the care of juve-
nile l~unatics and idiots. The board directed
attention to this matter in its report last
year, but nothing has been done to remedy
the conditions, which this years report
says are becoming worse as the number
of this class of cases increase. In its re-
port the board recommends that the Grim
inal law be so amended that ample punish
ment may be inflicted npon any person,
whether a parent or not, who wilfully
~abandons an infant.
OF the 6G6 children in the care of the
board 345 are In free homes, where they
are cared for without any expense TO the
taxpayers, and 321 are in boarding houses.
OF the latter 45 are In disciplinary institu-
lions or Institutions for detectives.
The number of children discharged dur
ing the year was 1913. The calendar of
commitments shows that AZ children were
committed as public charges because of
parental desertion, being nearly one-third
of the total number committed during the
year. The report shows that of the chill
dren committed so were American. 20 Ger
man, 80 Irish, 6 English. 5 Italian and IA
Polish.
During the nine years Of this boards
existence 2.2S7 children lave been COM
mitted to its care. 1t has discharged L,6l4
children. mostly to relatives whose ability
TO care for them has been discovered by
the investigation of the agents of the
board. Only six of the children placed by
the board in families died during the last
year.
The treasurer's account shows that the
cost Of maintenance to the counties, cities
and townships of New Jersey for all the
children committed to The care of the board
as public charges during the past year was
$31, 1854. l3. This covers the cost of board,
clothing and medical attention. The cost
OF administering the work falls upon the
State and 10 $S,376.S7. Adding
the two together the report shows that the
total cost Of the department for the year
was S99,74l. These figures show that the
total per capita cost of caring for all the
children during the year was less than $50.

FIGHTS WHEN
FOUND AFTER
10 YEARS..
Paterson Police in Hot Bat
tie with Jumper DOOIey
Who Fled Asylum

PATTERSON, Dec. 31.-Peter, alias
Jumper Dooley. a notorious convict,
who vas a membe of a gang that ter
rorized the East side section in 1894,
robbing homes and shooting citizens,
was apprehended yesterday afternoon
Aafter a search that extended over a
period of ten years.
For his participation in the crimes
that stirred the police and brought
about the formation of a vigilance COM
mitteR, Jumper" Dooley was SEN
fenced to serve twelve years in State
prison. After serving about two years
of this term he pretended to be in
sane and was transferred to the crimi-
nal ward of the Morris Plains asylum.
He soon proved himself to be mentally
sound and escaped from that institu-
ton shortly after his arrival there.
The convict put up a desperate battle
when cornered. 1t took the combined
strength of -four policemen to over
power him and then when he realized
that he was trapped Dooley pretended
to be out of his mind. At the outset he
did not realize that his identity was
known and gave a fictitious name at
the desk.
The police were somewhat puzzled
over the status of Dooley's character
until a telegram was received from
George o. Osborne, head keeper at the
State prison. The message read:
Trenton, N. j., Dec. 30, 1907.
John Bmson, Chief of Police, Paterson
Hold Peter Dooley. viii send for him
tomorrow. GEORGE o. OSBORNE"
Patrolman Geary was the first to for
ward information to headquarters that
Dooley was in town. Jumper was seen
In saloons in the vicinity of the Erie
depot, but when policemen searched for
him he was not to be found.
Abou 8 O'Clock word was telephoned in
that Dooley was in n house at 143 Vine
street. He has relatives living there, and
1t was reported that he had done some
damage.
Dooley. They knew him to be a desperate
man. especially when cornered. Uniformed
police were stationed nearby while plain
clothesmen waited his appearance.
Dooley struggled hard, even after the
chains were put upon his wrists, and four
policemen had all they could do to subdue
him.
Jumper Dooley was a pal of Frank
Cod and Nathan Boyle, each of whom re-
eeived a sentence of twelve years in State
Prison. Boyle and Cod were caught in
fight with the police. in which shots were
fired on both sides. Captain Taylor, then
a patrolman, directed the efforts of the
police at that time. The captain saw
Dooley in the lookup last night for the
first time since the day the late Judge
Hopper committed him to prison for a
twelve-year term.
