Tried Suicide with knife.

Believed to have been temporarily in
sane as the result of recent injuries to his
head, George Whitecraft, II years old,
attempted suicide late Wednesday night,
at his home at Riverside, by cutting his
throat with pocket knife.
The lad had made two or three ugly
gashes in his neck when his mother dis
covered him, and after struggle, in which
she was herself cut, wrested the knife
from him before he could injure himself
more severely
Sometime ago Whitecraft had his head
badly bruised by striking it against a pole
alongside the tracks while leaning out of
the trolley car. He is said to have acted
queerly at times since the accident.
Just before going to bed he went to the
kitchen and, pulling out his knife from
his pocket and opening one of the blades,
exclaimed: 81 guess I'll kill myself"

Rrrolars Shoot to XIII

Paoneiri Salvatore, who was brutally
shot while defending his property against
robbers at Fehrl's bowling alleys, River
side. at O'Clock on Wednesday morning,
is still in the Cooper Hospital, Camden, in
condition which will not permit of an
operation for the removal of the bullet.
The physician in charge does not think
that the intestines have been penetrated
and has hope. 1t all depends upon his
vitality.
State Detective Ellis Parker is working
on the case, assisted by Constable Borton,
and it is possible that arrests may be
made at any time.
Salvatore, who has been taking care of
the alleys and setting pins for some weeks,
and at night acts in the capacity of watch
man, recently drew $6S from bank to send
to his mother in Italy, confiding the fact
to some of his companions. While sleep
ing in a chair in the front of the store on
Wednesday evening he was set upon by
two men who had effected an entrance by
cutting around the lock. They engaged
him at once and in the struggle got the
coveted cash.
Salvatore rushed after them and caught
q third man at the door. Finding himself
a prisoner the fellow drew revolver and
fired three shots, all of which at close
range, are supposed to have entered his
victims body at the same spot in the groin.
In the meantime Mr.. and Mrs. Fehrle
had been aroused and the latter telephoned
for Constable Borton, but refused to let
her husband go into the room. When
Borton arrived the two carried Salvatore
into the house and summoned medical aid.
He was taken to the Cooper Hospital on
the 20 train.
Developments have established the fact
that the same three men entered the Nor
avian Church here in like manner, earlier
in the night, and breaking open the door
Of the pulpit, tested the silver communion
service. Not being solid they threw it
down and left the building after leaving
evidence that there were three of them |
Cigarette stubs and matches were scattered |
about the interior of the church.

spent in Bayville, Cedar Greek and
Forked River. He was variously en-
ployed as farmer, mariner and hotel l.
man, beside being in the Lifesaving
service. AS seaman the last vessel he
commanded was the Fanny Tracy,
and it was after he left the sea that

The action of Director Otis in refusing
to pay Court bills still holds up all jurors
and witnesses of the last term of Court.
The jurors were discharged for the term
Friday by Judge Martin, but they haven't
received cent The Grand Jury is not
paid and the witnesses didn't even get
their so cents subpoena fees. The officers
Of the Court have not had cent. 1t is
also understood that the Brouwer case
bills are still held up. The Sheriff got no
money till the last week in December to
pay jurors and witnesses for the Septem
Der term of Court. The Board of Free
holders seems perfectly content to let Otis
hold up the bills.

ness generally classcd rs feminine. For
example. his friend, John Paulscn.
In the London Times says that one OF
lbsen's maXims was this: mo woman
can write cookery book, and no won.

He lived up to the latter part of his
dictum. When lie detected loose but.

pains with the work as he would with
the final copy of one of his plays.
Then he used to brag about the per-
Torrance, saying that lie would not
put trust In button sewed on by any
woman. not even by his wife. His
wife used TO laugh She confided 10
Paulsen that she secretly resolved all
the buttons that the poet had sewcd-

said He always forgot to fastcn the
