There are some Wonderful lions
with the John II. Sparks Shows,
which will exhibit at Louisa, Thurs
day, May 9th. They are not only
of amazing size and beauty, hut they
have been trained to do some Of
the most thrilling acts ever present
ed to an audience. Mons. DouCet,
the worlds greatest lion tanner, was
ben and raised in the jungleS Of
equatorial Africa, and from child
hood was accustomed to hear the
roars of the man eating Kings Of
the forest that prOwled about his
cabin at night. His father once cap
tired some lion cubs which he
trained to aid him in his hunting
expeditions. Thus reared, the boy
became naturally a lion tanner and
hunter. Selecting some cubs from
the largest species known, he reared
, item and educated them to perform
feats that would illustrate the enaz-
ing strength and agility of these
beasts.
A pair of these great animals will
be turned loose in a great steel en-
closure, in full view of the audience
! Mons. Doucet will enter this enclo-
sure unarmed, and put the lions
through astonishing performances

Ocean City Cuts Road.

Ocean City, N. j., Jan. 12.-After a
warm session, following the receipt of
the message from Mayor Cresse vetoing
the appropriation of $50, 900 for new
streets. Council last night passed an
amendment to the appropriation resolu-
tion, cutting the appropriation for new
streets to SIS, 900, as recommended by
the Mayor.
Before this was accomplished, how
ever, Councilman Headley and Mayor
Cresse engaged in an exchange of per-
sonalities. The failure of Council to
award the contract for certain street
improvements within the last few
months was the principal bone of con-
tention.
An effort was made to pass the new
street appropriation of $50, 600 over the
Mayors veto, but this failed. One of
the surprises of the session was the at
titude of Councilman Sampson. suppos.
ed to be an anti Cresse man. He voted
against passing the measure over the
veto.
On motion of Councilman Headley. it
was agreed to appoint commission of
three to ascertain the prices paid by
the city for new street work and the
prices paid by individuals for the same
kind of work during the last two
years. This was not appointed last
night 'I'n guarantee you'll find the
city work done cheaper, says Mr..
HeadleY.

Bridgeton pioneer., 1909-01-14
ORDINANCES ARE PASSED,

For little over than an hour Tuesday
last night City Council was in session,
and in a business like manner transact
ed the work that was before the body.
The entire Council was present, Presi-
dent John N. Glaspell. Oscar Z.
Whipple, Lewis S. johnson, Elmer D.
Mulford, Howard W. Smalley, David
S. Blew and Charles II. Stevenson.
Immediately following the roll, the
minutes of the last meeting were read
and approved.
Mr. Mulford, for the Special Com
mittee, reported favorably upon appli-
cations for building permits made at
the last meeting and the permits were
granted
Mr.. Blew for Special Committee re.
ported that in the Fayette street hose
house, there was a hook and ladder
wagon and hose cart which the city
had no use for. He thereupon moved
that the committee be authorized to
advertise for sealed bids for these arti-
cles as well as the building. This
motion prevailed.
Council took up the various ordi-
nances that had passed first and second
reading, and they were passed the
third and final reading.
Following the passage of the ordi-
nances they were ordered printed ac
cording to law
Mr.. Whipple moved that the salary
of the fire warden be fixed at $50 an
nually, in accordance with the law of
1908. 1t was explained that this sal
ary did not provide payment for SER
vices in fighting fire, the fire warden
being allowed additional compensation
for actual work in fire fighting or in
vestigating fire.
Corporation Counsel McAllister at
this time made a statement covering
an interview with the State Board of
Health relative to the sewering into the
Cohansey river. He explained to Coun-
Gil the order of the State Board to the
city to cease sewering into the river
An extension of time was granted until
January 18th, or until the new Council
took office
Yesterday Mr.. McAllister visited the
State Board. He said that the city
would be obliged to erect disposal
plant Mr.. McAllister asked the Board
for three years time in which to make
the improvements. This the State
Board said would be too long, and Mr..
McAllister WAS informed that the city
received official notice as to the time
when the disposal plant must be COM
pleted. Mr.. McAllister was informed
by the State Board that Greenwich,
Fairton and several club houses were
sewering into the river, and they would
be compelled to cease polluting the
stream as soon as the work was.started
in Bridgeton. Mr.. McAllister said
that the Board advised Bridgeton to
employ competent engineer. one in
whom the city had all confidence, and
follow his advice. 1t was suggested
that the system used in some other
places would not meet the requirements
here.
The report was formally received by
Council on motion of Mr.. Stevenson.
Council then adjourned.

GETTING BEER
IN BRIDGETON.

Beer is being delivered in Bridgeton
and in considerable quantities. 1t may
be truthfully declared, however, that
there is far less consumption of the
brewed article here now than before
the raids last fall, that created such
sensation.
1t is rather interesting to follow the
novel methods that are being used to
make beer deliveries in this CITY.
There are few of those engaged in the
business who have any desire to appear
in Cumberland County Court. The
ent experience was sufficient and
will be recalled for some time to come.
For quite awhile there has been
representative here of a Philadelphia
Brewing Company. He has been per-
sonally soliciting orders, and agrees to
deliver it to the customer for 81. O5
case. He does net accept any money
when he solicits an order. He gives
the customer an order blank which the
buyer fills out and sends direct to the
brewery office. accompanying it with
the money. The local agent, however,
an arrangement with loca. jar
ties for the delivery of the filled cases
and to collect the empties. For this
the agent of the brewery arranges to
pay ten cents per case, and in some in
stances this contract has been carried
out by the brewery Office. The same
gent referred to has been soliciting
whiskey orders, but he had some trou.
BILE in making the same kind of ar
rangement for delivery here.
One of the nearby beer farms is still
continuing to sell beer in kegs and de-
livery is made in Bridgetop. Quite
good deal of care is taken in receiving
money for the beer in the city limits
The beer is delivered here by the same
man who for years was employed upon
the beer farm delivery wagon, but
ostensibly the gentleman is now operat-
ing an express line, and the delivery of
his beer is part of his common carry.
ing business. The fact is his entire
''express" line is from this particular
beer farm to the customer, and he also
makes the collection of the beer kegs
when empty
Another beer farm sends to its GUS
toners the beer ordered from the place,
in what is styled ''The Errand
Wagon" These words are lettered
upon the wagon inconspicuously, and
the ''errand wagon is in charge of
the man who for long while was en-
ployed upon beer farm delivery
wagon.
Still another beer farm just outside
the city limits makes no pretense of
not being responsible for delivery, and
he sends his kegs out in his own wagon
as he always has.
In considering this method of getting
beer in .Bridgeton, it follows that one
can not forget the sopinion of all the
Courts upon this question. The law is
declared to be that the sale of beer
which carries with it contract to de-
liver liquors or beer, is sale when the
delivery is made. just how delivery
can be made by the brewers and the
beer farmers in Bridgeton, as outlined
above, will puzzle good many people
very considerably.

Dull Business

Millville, Jan. 13.-One shift is now
operating the large continuous glass
tank of the y G. Wheaton Company
which was blocked last week, and the
condition there looks little more
hopeful Whitall- -Tatum Company is
running only about half capacity.
A prominent glass worker official
stated to-day that unless there is a
great change in the conditions within
the next ten days, everything in the
line of glass plants win be blocked or
