In Sydney, town Of 100000 inhab-
Iitants, one can get nothing to eat on
la Sunday. Certain restaurants supply
flood surreptitiously, but the whole
time the guests are in danger of being
iarrested Once an Italian was In such
"a restaurant on Sunday when suddenly
the police entered. The italian was
promptly pushed by the proprietor into
a room where a waitress happened to
be standing In negligee. Even this
room the police invaded, but the wait
ress saved the situation by declaring
that the young man was her iance.
The young man, by the way, had been
married some time. He thought that
he had deceived the policeman but, as
a matter Of fact, he had got out Of the
frying pan into the fire. One fine day
the waitress called him before the
courts and claimed $4,000 for breach of
promise. The Italian had to pay. And
then came the worst of all. His wife
sued for a divorce and shortly after
married another man.

Counsel for the receiver of the Camden
and Trenton Railway Company asked
Vice Chancellor Leaning in Camden yes
terday to issue receivers certificates to
the amount of $4,000.
The Vice Chancellor said he would not
make an order for the issue If there were
any way to get oui Of 1t, as every time he
has issued such certificates he has always
been sorry for it. 1t was explained that 1t
was really necessary to have the certin-
Gates, as repairs must be made.
The Vice Chancellor thought that the
money should come out of the current
funds. There were present attorneys
representing the mortgage bondholders,
and they said that there was 100000
worth of first mortgage bonds and 1922,
800 worth of second mortgage bonds. The
receiver, William T. Sadler, said there
was $4,000 In bank, and since he has had
the operation of the road its business has
been increased. None of the bondholders,
1t was said, offered objection to the issue
of the certificates. except Daniel Killion'
who holds one $500 bond.
The Vice Chancellor held the matter

MERoRR county's authorities are very
much pleased at the way In which detect
i've Ellis III. Parker, Burlington county's
detective, captured the colored man who
committed an assault upon John Borden
at Yardville. Within "a hours after the
crime had been reported to the Trenton
authorities. the criminal was captured and
within the walls of Mercer county Jail.
Prosecutor Crossley thinks this one of the
most clever acts of detective work that
has been done In long time, and he gives
detective Parker all the praise that he il
Justly entitled to. There Is no doubt az
to the ability of Parker to ferret out
crime. and he is absolutely fearless when
1t becomes necessary to make an arrest.
His appointment as Burlington county's
detective under the new law giving power
to have such an officer, was an act that
met with the approval of nearly all OF
the people of this county, with the ex.
ception of the lawbreakers, and even they
have wholesome respect for him, and
the arrests made by the detective since he
took charge show that he Is filing the
position creditably and effectively.
