Marriage License Law.

Governor Fort has signed the bill pro-
viding that marriage license shall be
necessary before it is lawful for a clergy
man or magistrate to perform marriage
In New Jersey. Heretofore it has been
necessary for only non-residents to secure
license, and they could easily evade
even that requirement.
The new law goes into effect July 1.
Any official or clergyman who shall per-
form marriage ceremony when no license
is secured shall be liable to Imprisonment
for term not exceeding six months or a
fine not to exceed $500, or both. Making
untruthful answers in applying for IL
cense shall be deemed perjury Magistrates
or clergyman performing marriages shall
make report within five days of the solem-
nization of marriage, This will lessen
the number of secret weddings. The pre-
sent law makes it necessary to file the re-
turn within thirty days. Failure to make
the report within the time limit shall be
punishable by fine not exceeding $50.
Where both parties to the ceremony are
residents the license shall be secured in
the district where the woman resides, and
also If the man is a nonresident. If the
woman is nonresident the license shall
be secured where the man resides III
both are non-residents the license shall be
secured in the district where the ceremony
is to be performed.
No license shall be granted when either
of the applicants is intoxicated, under the
influence of drugs, or of unsound mind,
or when either applicant has been an in
mate of an insane asylum or almshouse,
unless 1t shall appear that such person has
been satisfactorily discharged from such
The same measure was vetoed last year
by the Governor, because provision was
not made that Quakers could wed accord |
ing to the rules of the Friends. Provision
is made for this and other sects of sin

Base Ball

Next Saturday afternoon, at three
o'clock, there will be game of base ball
between the Continentals, of Mount Holly,
and the regular Mount Holly team. This
will be practice game to give the Mount
Holly nine chance to do some work and
to get acquainted with their team mates.
There will not be any charge for this
game, but collection will be taken, the
proceeds to be given to the Continentals.
The season will open on Saturday, the
seventh of May.
The Mount Holly grounds are in good
condition and those who attend will be
pleased at the changes which have been
made. The diamond is further out In the
field, there will not be any corn crop to
interfere, and everybody will be provided
with seat.
The directors of the Delanco Athletic
Association do not feel that they can
afford to put base ball team on the field
costing $50, when the collection amounts
to about $15. The managers report for
last season is so discouraging that there
will be no team at Delanco this season,
unless it be composed entirely of
local players who are willing to take
part for the sport there is in the game.
Those desiring to play under these con-
ditions are requested to send their names
and positions they would like to fill to e.

chance to make good. The association
intends to erect lawn tennis court, and
new feature to be added will be outside
