Thls Is From Now vernon.

How about it looking easy for the
Cleveland T. G. at New Vernon last
Saturday with a score of twelve TO
seven in favor of New Vernon f. c.?
1t was good game with Morristown
umpire that was fair. Nevertheless,
we like the Collinsyille combination
of ball tossers and hope that they will
come again. They will be welcomed
by the onlookers as well as the New
Vernon lads. Don't kick SO hard next
time but take it easy

TROLLEY WORK PUSHED.

Looks Like Business with Ira j. Rich
ter in Charge In Morrfstown
That the trolley will soon be real
ity and not a dream is patent to all
who have seen the work now in opera
tion on Speedwell avenue. The Nor
ris County Traction Co. has leased a
vacant lot from Eney Grupelli located
on Speedwell avenue opposite Speed
we'll place and is preparing temper
ary power station there.
A fiat car belonging to the company
has been rooted over and 125 kilo
watt generator, a 125 horse power
motor, switchboard and other neces-
sary paraphernalia set up upon it. The
car vas brought down from Dover on
Monday, where the machinery was set
up. 1t was brought to Morris Plains
over the Lackawanna and there trans
ferred to the trolley tracks and was
dragged the rest OF the way down
Speedwell avenue by the trolley com.
pany's steam roller.
The William Ell. Sheehan Co. il
stringing the wires from the Morri:
s. Somerset Electric company's plant
to the temporary station.
A gang of laborers is clearing the
stones and dirt from the trolley tracks
and the trolley wires will be straight
ened and made ready for the running
of the first car September 1st.
The company will probably bring
the car to be used here down from
Dover on Friday. 1t will be six
wheel closed car, seating forty people
1t is one of the first cars used by the
company in Dover. but it has beer
repaired and repainted and presents
fine appearance.
The work in MorriStOwn is under
the supervision of Ira ]. Richter, who
constructed the line through Dover
several years ago. 1t gladdened the
hearts Of. Morristonians to see Mr.
Richter in charge, for he has the repu
tation of accomplishing results ano
with him directing the work OF con
struction here it would seem thai
something must come of it.

$500 for summer shelter

The Morristown Summer Shelter,
near Collinsville, our well.known fresh
air home for poor city children, has
recently received $500 bequest by the
will of the late Miss Mary Caroline
Pierson, of Morristown. This sum
has been added to the endowment
fund of the society and it would not
be misplaced confidence if Others
should emulate Miss Persons gen.
erous example, and help to provide for
an institution which for twenty years
has annually brought so much happi-
ness and benefit to hundreds of needy
children. The city charities which
supply the Shelter with little ones
have often stated that there is no
home as popular as the Morristown
Summer Shelter. y
