More state Mutual

Vice Chancellor Leaning yesterday
morning made permanent the rule to
show cause why those shareholders of the
State Mutual Building and Loan Associa-
ton who disposed of the stock to the
Assets Realization Company should not
have their names expunged from the list
of general creditors. This means that
the assets company will be benefited by
whatever dividend is declared by the
receivers.
Contrary to expectation there was not a
rush of stockholders in court to tell how
they had been prevailed upon to part
with their holdings on thirty per cent.
basis. General rumor had 1t that the
several hundred persons, hailing from all
parts of the state, who had thus disposed
of their stock had been prevailed upon to
dispose on Misrepresentation. This con-
sisted in statement that the association
was in such condition that it would hardly
be possible to secure more than thirty per
cent. on their investment. Since then the
receivers have given assurance that they
will be able to return seventy per cent,
perhaps more.
There were not more than twenty-five
shareholders who raised any objection to
the assets company being substituted as a
creditor in place of the shareholders who
had sold their stock. These will be treat
ed with counsel for the company.

at Trenton has been made upon the officers
of St. Joseph's Catholic Home for Aged, of
this city, by Mrs. Patrick Cofield. of
Trenton, for the payment or accounting

Mrs. Coffield AYERS that early this year
she called upon her aunt, who was then
In feeble health and declining years, and
that the elderly woman turned over to
her bank book of the Savings Fund So
ciety of Germantown, PHILADELPHIA, which
showed that there was on deposit $742 o.
She says that her aunt told her to keep
the book, as the amount on deposit was to
be hers at her death.
Miss Chambers left will bequeathing
all of her property to her niece. After
Miss Chambers death Mrs. Coffield made

Riverton


A good natured rivalry has sprung up be-
tween Riverton and Palmyra as to which
is to have the finest school building. Both
towns have decided to erect new schools
and the contest is now on. Riverton has
voted to raise $4,000 for the purpose,
while Palmyra asked for more than $50, ;
600, but the Board Of Education was in
structed to spend only $4,000. The bids
for the Palmyra school were received sew
eral days ago, but the Board was com
PEELED to turn them all down and ask for
new plans, as those selected would cost
more than the stipulated amount. River
ton as vet has not received bids, but will
In few days, and then work will be rush
ed. 1t has been suggested many times
that the two towns, which adioin each
other, combine and have one of the finest
high schools in the state, but from present
indications there is not much chance for
the plan being carried out.
Efforts of the police and citizens to cap
ture a robber, or band of them, which have
been operating here for several weeks
have failed. When the first theft was
announced Chief of Police Major thought
1t was the work of tramps who happened
to be passing through the town. A few
days elapsed and another house was rob-
bed. Within a week the police were mott
fed that several other places had been en-
tered. A special policeman was appoint
ed to assist the regular force, but nothing
was said about this addition, and the maj
was kept in plain clothes. The robberie
ceased and the sleuth discharged. Resi-
dents of the borough slept in peace TO
one night, and then more robberies wer
reported.

CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE, PHILADELPHIA
"The Other Girl an exceedingly
clever comedy by Augustus Thomas,
author of "The Witching Hour" and
other successful plays, will be presented
by the Orpheum Players at the Chestnut
Street Theatre, Philadelphia, this week.
The production of this beautiful play
promises to be one of the dramatic treats
of the year, for it is without exaggeration
one of the best the Orpheum Company
has ever presented. "The Other Girl"
enjoyed great popularity when first pro-
duced several seasons ago, and in the
original cast were number of the most
popular actors of the day, who achieved
personal triumphs in the Interpretation of
the splendid roles provided for them by
the author. Two characters in particular
stand out prominently and distinctly as
forceful types of modern times. One is a
minister, the other pugilist, said to be a
character drawing of one of the best
known prize ring champions of recent
years. The latter part will be played by
George D. Parker and it promises to be
the greatest role he has play ed since his
connection with the Orpheum Company.
The role of the minister will be taken by
Robert Cummings and it will afford him
an opportunity to show himself in a role
entirely different from any in which he
has yet appeared ''The Other Girl is
in three acts, each one bristling with
action, clever and witty lines and amusing
and stirring situations. Besides Mr.. Par
ker and Mr.. Cummings the cast will in
clude Leah Wins1ow, Florence Ritten-
house, Ada Boshe1l, Peter Lang, Joseph
Creaghan, Henry Ed~ardes, Nay Des-
mond and the other Oypheum Players.
The play will be staged under the per-
sonal direction of Stage Director Percy
Winter.

did not have the easy time anticipated
and one in the seventh. Play was made
for shutout, but in the seventh inning,
Boehme, of Palmyra, sent ball over the
fence on to the railroad, for home run.
This was the first time the ball ever went
that far on Medford's field and it made the
natives sit up and look. There was no
one on base, no chance to claim that the
runner did not touch base, and the run
counted. Umpire Gusts, of course.
Dick Leonard is still playing ball. He
scored both Of Riverside's runs on
Saturday.
There was an interesting contest at
Rancocas Park, on Sunday. between
MasonYille and club of colored players.
The game was one which kept the specta-
tors keyed up until the last man was out.
The colored boys were too much for the
others, however, and won the game-fve
to four. In the ninth inning Masonville
had two men on bases but was unable to
get them home.
Thorn told Mount Holly man on Sat
urday that he would pitch for US against
Burlington next Saturday if the manage
ment wanted him. To let him return to
the team after past occurrences would be
sufficient TO decrease the small attendance
that now is seen. Let him stick to Bur-
lington. If Mount Holly defeats Bur
lington next Saturday do not let it be said
that Thorn had to be recalled to secure the
victory. Manager Mitchell, of Burling-
ton, yesterday said that Thorn would not
pitch against Mount Holly on Saturday,
as he was not considered quite good
enough. Morgan will do the twirling.

poor cooking and the servant girl problem

Pancoast, who has been prominent In

been delegated by the State Federation of
Women's Clubs to make this period of
happy homes reality, and to put the
makers of dyspepsia tablets and the Di-

As the chairman of the department Of

been empowered to get each club to devote
certain number OF its meetings to do.
nestle questions, SO that the women may
become better acquainted with the prob
lens that must confront each housewife.
The work will not stop there, as the
several hundred clubs are expected to
appoint one member each to work with
Mrs. Pancoast The School Boards In
every town and city will then be ap-
preached and every effort possible made
to induce them to make one of the studies
of the school, not only cooking like
mother used to do" but every branch Of
Homework, so that when the fair maideus
graduate they will be able to take charge
of home and conduct 1t as 1t should be.
Mrs. Pancoast and her co-workers also
voice the opinion that many of the
studies In the school of to-day are abso-
lutely useless and could well be dropped
In favor of cooking and housekeeping.
The movement Is to be SO widespread that
Mrs. Frank Pattison, the president of the
State Federation. Is preparing to deliver
series of lectures throughout the state
on the subject.

Base BAN.

Quite a number Of base ball enthusiasts
game of ball with the hope of having the
pleasure of bringing home the news Of a
victory. They were disappointed In both
ideas There was nothing to warrant the
designation of "a game" and so far as
victory was concerned the Mount Holly
team did not have a look In from the start.
It's funny, but just as soon as the home
team gets on strange grounds there APP
win. In the case at Florence 1t was the
fact that Mount Holly had poor pitcher
and Florence a good one. Rhubart. for
the latter, made good, and held Mount
Holly down to five hits, while Mcclure
was touched up for seven hits. Florence
started right in to win the game and in
the first five innings they secured seven
runs. After that they did not care as
they had the game cinched
The hackers of the Mount Holly team
got enough early in the game. Before the
second inning had ended several concluded
to take the next trolley for home, another
lot started at the end of the fourth inning,
and the balance stayed until the finish and
are still wondering what they remained
for. Mount Holly was BANKED until the
eighth inning when M. PARCEL managed
to make the circuit and saved the team
shutout A new pitcher named McKennon,
was on the ground, and after Florence
had made FIVE runs off of Mcclure, he was
put In the box. Two runs were all that
were scored from him, but 1t was too late.
Florence people were naturally jubilant
and expressed themselves only as a
Florence crowd can, a manner we'll known
to all who have ever attended game at
that place. Charley Peacock. who is a
resident of the town, and who has been
subjected to all kinds of treatment because
he is on the Mount Holly team, was the
object of insulting and derisive remarks
all through the game.
