Franklin Murphy Sells Historic
Property in Wayne Township,
Passaic County.

Former Governor Franklin Murphy
has filed a deed in the Passaic county
registrars office, conveying the old
Washington's headquarters property in
Wayne township, which was once
owned by Paterson's former mayor,
William Belcher, to Edward s. Wright,
who has been a tenant on the property
for a number of years.
After the financial difficulties of
Belcher became known the property
was bought at the sheriff's sale by AL
bert French for $500, the mortgage on
the property being held by Henry Hees-
man. Mr.. French SOLD it to Governor
Murphy, who bought with the object
of interesting the Sons of the Revolu-
ton in the site and selling it to them,
so that it might be preserved as a
historic landmark. Evidently the Sons
of the Revolution did not want it, for
1t has now ben decided to Mr.. Wright,
he having bought it for $500. :

ARRESTED FOR DISpOSING
OF FRIENDS MOTORCAR.
Said to Have Kept Money He
Received.

Frederick c.. Artopoleous was ar
rested by Constable Obermiller at his
home in Orchard street, Bloomfield, on
a body execution for a Judgment
secured against him by Arthur d.
Greenfield, a New York lawyer, and
former resident of East Orange. Green
field states that he gave Artopoleous an
automobile to sell, with the under
standing that the latter should keep it
until the sale was effected.
The machine was eventually disposed
of, he says, but he never received any
of the money. so a judgment for $500
was granted in the First District Court.
AS Artopoleous had no property, the
only thing to do was to arrest him. He
was brought to the sherfff's office.

today's eclipse of the sun will
be totally unlike any other re-

1.-THE eclipse will be of a very
interesting character from the
fact that for a few seconds It
will be annular eclipse, then
change to a total eclipse, then
back to an annular eclipse for
the second time. l cannot find
record of such an occurrence in
the history of astronomy, al
though we have records of an
nular eclipse for 400 years. and
of total eclipses for thousands
OF years. The eclipse as a par
tial phase of greater or lesser
magnitude will sweep over the

1t passes through Canada and
