Had it not been for the timely discovery
by his son George, the latter and his
father, Edward Hulse, would have been
run over by the cars, yesterday afternoon,
at the same place on the Burlington road
and by the same train that killed Mrs.
Hulse and her daughter nearly two years
ago. The men were on a shelving going
after load of wood, the son riding in the
rear. Noticing the approaching train
George shouted to his father, who stopped
just in time to escape being struck by the
engine.
II L f4,,nr ~.
Friday, at which DIR. Hunt of the State
animation has been made into all causes
which might produce typhoid fever and
the State Board has not been able to dis
cover anything to which to attribute the
outbreak here. The most probable cause
for typhoid In any case is the water
supply, but that of Mount Holly has not
disclosed sufficient contamination to make
it dangerous DR.. Hunt called attention
to the fact that typhoid is prevalent all
over the country. In Philadelphia. last
week, there were 107 new cases. In
many of the towns adjoining Mount Holly
the disease has made its appearance, and
the Mount Holly water cannot be held
for that. AS q matter of
precaution the doctor thought 1t wise to
continue boiling drinking water.
Because of the variety of subject mat
ter-not to mention its greater realism
Lyman FL. Howe's Lifeorama to be seen at
the Opera House, on Wednesday, Septem-
Der 9. has attained popularity and vogue
much greater than that of the illustrated
lecturer. By avoiding a sameness Of sub
ject that appeals only to very limited
class and by combining variety with rea-
lism, yet dignity. his exhibition naturally |
appeals to a far greater clientele than
does the lecturer. For the eye is more |
than the ear, 1t receives
clearer and truer impressions. The scoop |
and dignity of the new program is indi-
Gated by only brief mention OF few
features, such as an automobile trip |
through beautiful Savoy in France; per-
sonally conducted drive through Rome;
a ramble through picturesque Naples;
a boat trip down the sacred river Gauges
in India past the ancient city of Benares;
also scenes of strenuous life In Australia
and still more thrilling scenes of 10 mile
Steeplechase in England; the ineffable
beauty of ice-bound Niagara; the quaint
and humorous episodes in the lives OF
birds and animals; the weird effects of
physical phenomena, etc.
