spirit manifested itself and several
arose for prayer and conservation.
On Tuesday evening a large congre-
cation greeted former pastor E. Bruce
Price, of Phoenixville, who preached
very inspiring sermon from John
717-3. His theme was Life, more

meeting was also blessed by some ask
ing for prayers On Wednesday even

THE GRAND JURY RECALLED.
To Meet Next Friday at 10 A. NJ.


When the February Grand Jury took
a recess at the conclusion. of a two
days session, it expected to be re-
called to consider the Cole murder
case at Paulsboro, but something has
arisen to completely fsvershadow that
case. The w. F. Davis hotel license
was revoked after a trial lasting eight
days.
On motion of Davis counsel, made
before Justice Reed and Minturn,
writ of eertiorari, calling up for re-
view before the Supreme court the
order of Judge Starr revoking the IL
cense, was granted. On the granting
of this writ, Davis, on advise of his
counsel, re-opened his hotel and pro-
ceeded to exercise his rights under the
license as though no order of revoca-
ton had been made.
After assuring himself that Davis
was thus violating Judge Starr's or
der, Prosecutor Rogers caused Davis
and his bartenders to be arrested and
bound over to appear at Court.
The session of Court has come ear
lier than many imagined, because the
late Grand Jury had not adjourned,
and no necessity exists to wait for
the May Grand Jury.
One does not require extraordinary
vision to see that great legal battle
is sure to grow out of this controversy
If the order of the Supreme Court
calling this case UP for review, acts
as a supersedeas, as Davis counsel
advise him, then the county law officer
assumes a grave responsibility in sub
iecting him to Indictment. Again, II
| Davis counsel is in error, and has adj
vised him wrongly, their client stands
to suffer the full penalty that could be
| imposed for illegal sale of liquor.
/ If anybody imagines this is not go
| i1N to be a battle royal at law, they
miss their guess.
Argument on the writ will be had
as soon after the 29th inst, as the
court can hear the case, probably on
that day.

Mrs. Tanner Miller, Of Smiths Land
ing, near Pleasantville, had mira
culous escape at the West Jersey and

hesitated and was caught between two

in the slightest, but the express hurled
her dress-suit case from her hand and
her clothing was badly torn.

FINE BUSINESS

Judge Pike of Reno, fined the Ell
kins Brothers convicted OF running
a fence" in Reno where stolen
goods were purchased and who have
made u snug fortune out of their
nafariOus business $500 and then
turned them loose. The indignation
of the people has been aroused by
his fine and Judge Pike is being Sc
vereiy criticised.
The case against IT, men convict
ed was exceptionally strong and
from the first there was no doubt as
to their guilt. 1t has also been prov
en- that they attempted to bride the
Chief of Police and the District At
torney in order to have the prosecu-
ton cease their efforts to convict
them. With these facts before him
the Judge gives them the minimum
sentence watch they promptly paid
and were released. More business
enterprises of the same nature will
probably start in the riverside city.
