Base Ban

The hot weather did not keep the Med
ford base ball club from coming to Mount
Holly with the idea of defeating the home
team. The rumor had been circulated
that Mount Holly would record its first
defeat, as Medford had strengthened for
the game and would have a professional
pitcher In the box. This proved to be
without foundation, however. There were
some changes. "Whitey" Schoenut had
been released, and that did not add any
strength to the team, for his headwork
was missed. Kilmer was on third base
and that was also an element of weakness.
as the young man did not keep up his end
OF the game as In the past. Moser did
most of the pitching, but towards the last
he was sent to the bench.
Mount Holly was short a couple of
players. Ballingal, the catcher, sent word
that he could not get away, and Perkins
was crippled, having cut his hand on a
piece of glass. Charley Peacock was put
behind the bat and he did very well. Har-
old Deacon was on first base where he had
IL put outs, three Of which were without
assistance. He also had two hits.
Mount Holly scored two runs In the
first inning. In the second inning, with
two men out G. Davis got to first on an
error by Barr. He stole second and went
to third, where he was easily caught by
Logan, but the umpire said safe and this
decision gave Medford two runs, as Brad.
dock and Davis both scored. Mount Holly
did some good hitting, however, and the
game ended with the score 10 to 5 In favor
of the home team.

vacated.
The court also made an order by con
sent of Stewards counsel that the sewage
plant be turned over to the township COM

THERR1s a general nrotest rninr nn

THERE is general protest going up all
over the country about allowing exhibit
lions OF moving pictures of the recent
hight between q colored man and a white
man. Several cities have already pro-
hibited the showing of the pictures and
others will undoubtedly follow suit. Per
haps this Ia all right, but supposing the
result hadsbeen different and the colored
man had been defeated, would there have
been such q howl of indignation The
conditions of the contest and the possible
result were well known before the men
entered the ring. The colored man won.
and there have been expressions of dis
gust and disappointment from mauy
quarters. and the colored race, naturally
5ubilant, has been subjected to iibes and
insults. But If Jeffries had been victor
ious the white people would have yelled
with delight. So far as the result was
concerned 1t was tweedledum and tweedle.
dee. The exhibiting of the pictures il
another matter. The majority of people
will agree that no especial benefit can ac-
crue from giving on q screen the repro
duction of the contest In the ring at Reno.
But the objection that Is entered here
might be put against two-thirds of the
pictures that are being shown continually
day and night-all over the United
States. The subjects are not elevating.

AT THE meeting of the Board of Free
holders on Wednesday the members dis
covered that they were somewhat 'up
against it, as several of the appropriations
had been exhausted and 1t was necessary
to transfer from one account to another
sufficient money to pay the bills that were
then presented and what Is to be done In
the future was not determined The sit
uation called for many private conferences
of the various committees and the finance
committee The year is only half gone.
yet the bridge account has but "a, 900 left
In 1t, and there is staring the Board In the
face the necessity for expanding at least
that sum on bridge In Chesterfield town
ship, provided, of course, 1t can be shown
that the county Is compelled to rebuild
the structure. There cannot be any ignor-
ance OF the present state of affairs pleaded
as the County Auditor strikes balance
sheet each month, and the finance COM
mittee is In possession of the balances IN
each appropriation at every meeting of
the Board. This was acknowledged by
Turner Birkhead, chairman of that COM
mittee. who called attention to the close
margin at command, and who said the
committee had almost determined not to
allow any appropriation to be exceeded. .
There should not be any almost deter
mined" about 1t. When the appropria-
ton is gone the expenditures should
cease, and the County Auditor should
fatty refuse to pay any bills unless the
money is In hand. To go on and spend
money when 1t is shown that the appropria
ton has been exhausted Is criminal and
subject for action by grand jury. While
the money lasts the necessary work should
be done, but no member ought to be
willing to put himself in the position of
being brought to account for illegal acts.
We write this with the full understanding
that the printing appropriation has been
exhausted, and have no hesitnacy In
saying that If there is not any money
available to meet the expenses In that
line the work should be cut out. The
observance of the law should be par
amount to all other interests.

CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE

ShEo1NO4 OANAEI 1AEAIkE
''The Blue Mouse" another popular
Clyde Fitch success, seen originally in
Philadelphia several months ago, with Ma
bel Barrison in the title role, will be pre-
scented by the Orpheum Players at the
Chestnut Street Theatre, Philadelphia,
this week. This play was one of the best
known and perhaps the 1iveliest of all
Fitch comedies. 1t had its origin in Ber-
lin and was adapted and toned down for
the American stage by Mr.. Fitch, who
gave to the play touch of broad farce
which is SO pleasing to the average Ameri-
can theatre-goer. In the Orpheum pro-
duction of THE Blue Mouse,' Miss Leila
Shaw will be seen in the title character
and Albert Phillips will play the part OF
the railroad president. All the other
favorites of the company will be cast in
congenial roles. The usual splendid
mounting and staging of the play will be
made under the supervision of Mr.. Percy
Winter and Stage Manager John J. Geary.

Next Saturdays attraction will be Vim
centown and efforts are being made to
have the game played at Mount Holly.
Kilmer said, on Saturday, that he was
sorry he had not Joined Mount Holly as
he originally agreed to. He was about
the only fellow who expressed any regrets.
Mount Holly won three straight games
from Burlington and that was more than
the latter could stand, so manager Mitchell
discharged the whole bunch after the last
game on the Fourth.
Mount Holly has played IL games this
season and has won all of them. Mana
ger Worrell Is contemplating some con-
tests with Atlantic City and Southwark,
the strongest amateur aggregations in the
field, and maybe the tale will be different,
but Mount Holly will keep them going
some.
