Will 1t Be a New Bridge ?

At the special meeting of the Board
OF Freeholders, the fate of the old bridge
at Port Elizabeth will be discussed.
The indications at this time point to
the demolition of the old structure,
and in its place will be erected prob
ably stable, adequate iron bridge.
The bids were yesterday received by
the committee. Various prices submit
ted with the proposals, each having
special merit. The bids vary. accord
ing to the plans from $4,000 to $4,000.
This is less expensive than was at
first figured out by the Committee.
Freeholder Sutton who has personal
charge of the matter gives it as his
opinion that the present old. covered
bridge is in very dangerous condition,
and he is fearful that unless conditions
are improved there will be a serious
accident for which the county may be
held responsible There are some peo-
pie about Port Elizabeth who for SEN
timental reasons are rather opposing
the demolition of the old covered
bridge

BRIDGETON'S PITCHER
LANDS A GOOD ONE.

1t has occurred. After couple--of
weeks anxious waiting we take great
pleasure in announcing to the local
patrons, followers and knot-hole fans,
OF the Bridgeton team, that said team
has beaten Millville The proverbial
luck of the tribe across the pike was
evident for while Tuesday, but as
soon as Bridgeton got ahead it FLEW
the COOP and there was no hope for
the white Sox" from that time on.
Bridgeton was determined to win
and the delegation of faithful ones ven
tured over, and they had the pleasure
of witnessing fine game both from a
general and Bridgeton standpoint
The game itself was well contested
and most interesting to us because the
victory came back to Bridgeton.
Glaze was the box artist for the
County seaters" and he made good
in every sense of the word. He was
very steady and pulled out of some
dangerous holes in fine shape.

BOAT OWNERS
ARE ORGANIZING.

About thirty five owners of motor
boats met in the Office of Justice of
the Peace Mulford Tuesday evening and
took the first step toward having an
organization for their protection and
to advance their interests.
The gentlemen effected temporary
organization after all expressed their
desires to do so. ). Edgar Stanger
was elected chairman and Wallace K.
Downs, secretary. The chairman ap-
pointed a committee, Arthur G. Null
ford, George Collins and Abe Nichols,
to investigate the advantages and dis
advantages to be derived from a per-
manent organization.
An inspector from the local custom
house was present at the invitation of
the men interested in the prospective
club and he made brief remarks con-
corning the equipping of motor boats
and answered questions asked by the
gentlemen present.
The next meeting of the boat owners
will be held probably in two weeks
As soon as the committee on investiga-
tion have secured what information
they think sufficient, the chairman will
issue call through the newspapers for
another session.
Before that time all of the owners
will be spoken to concerning the prop
osition Of a club and it is likely that
there will be large attendance and
that permanent organization will be
effected.

Bridgeton.
Made eight hits.
Out hit Millville.
For first time in series.
Nobody got over one hit.
Doubles was only local not to hit;
but he was passed three times.
Westerberg singled and stole, and
scored on Lavelle hit to centre. First
run.
Doubles was hit, Erwin sacrificed,
and he scored on Marten' S clean one
over second. Second run.
Glaze did some great work, was
steady and worked out of holes.
Lavelle made two errors. First time
this year he has had over one week.
Neither were costly, though.
Bridgeton out hit Millville 9-6. First
time in the series that locals have had
advantage of the hits.
They wouldn't give Doubles chance
to hit. He was passed three times.
Erwin played WE'LL and at bat got a
single and sacrifice, both nice ones.
Ball had some chases in centre At
bat he sacrificed twice and hit once.
jerry Martsn scored the second
run with his hit.
Carter was wild and nervous; Clunn
warmed up but was saved for to-day
A funny thing is that the fourteen
hits were made by different men. No
one got two.
Reeders' hit; Geig's force; the lat
ter's steal and Frye's solid drive, saved
Millville shut.out.
Glaze works his splitter" at oppor-
tune times. 1t is a fooler.
Geig steals bases better than any
other Millvillian.
Bridgeton had several more men on
bases than Millville.

field is sadly in need of barber.
