one of the best known and most highly
esteemed priests In the Diocese of Tren-
ton, was highly honored Wednesday on
the occasion of the twenty-fifth anniver-
sary of his ordination, when the Ri. Rev.
Bishop James A. McFaul, together with
fifty or more priests from the D;oceses of
Trenton and Newark, and numerous dis
tinguished laymen from all parts of the
state attended his jubilee exercises at his
church in Red Bank.
A notable feature of the occasion was
the presentation to Father Reynolds Of
three separate purses, aggregating more
than 5000, and also a handsome gold
watch. One of the purses was given by
the clergyman's parish, another by his
fellow priests, and the third by other
friends from different parts of the state.
The watch was presented to him by Red
Bank Council, No. 525, K. of c., in
scribed "a loving tribute to Rev. James
A. Reynolds, State Chaplain, from Red

Political Notes.

Former Governor Stokes will speak at
the Court House on Thursday evening.
Charles Parker, of Unionville, will be
the Republican candidate for freeholder
from Eastampton at the primary election.
Charles A. Bovine, of Florence town
ship, is the only Republican who will try
for the nomination for Steward of the
Almshouse.
All chances for rolling q sweet morsel
under the tongue by those who would like
to see something doing, were removed by
the declination of county clerk Harry L.
Knight to enter the contest for member of
the county Republican committee. This
not only prevented what would have been
very spirited fight, but 1t reflects great
credit upon Mr.. Knights judgment, be-
sides another result which would not have
been very pleasant.
The following candidates for county
offices have filed their petitions at the
county clerks office:

games with Mount Holly he got one hit
On Saturday he landed one to Perkins
which ought to have been an out and he
made clean hit. On both of these Med
| ford scored.
| Riverside easily shut out E. R. Maty, of
Philadelphia, by the score of 10 too
Palmyra Field Club went to Florence
and won the game by the score of too.
Palmyra and Delanco played a close
game in which Delanco won by the score
of too.
If sufficient number of people can be
secured an extra train will run to Medford
on Monday.
With Garrison in the pitchers box, New
Egypt defeated Vincentown. The score
was to 8. Garrison struck out IA men.
There were two innings in which all the
assists were made by one man on each
team. Barr threw to first and retired
three men and Brown did the same.
Silcox was not in good form. He was
suffering with a mashed toe and every
time he pressed 1t in the pitchers box the
pain was terrific and unnerved him.
As the season draws to close the in
terest in base ball seems to awaken. The
best audience that has been on the Mount
Holly grounds was present on Saturday.
There was an interesting and exciting
game In Mount Holly on Thursday be-
tween mines composed of county officials
and members of the lodge OF Elks. The
latter won. Score IS to II.
1t is sort of pitiful to see fellows who
have done good work 60 down the list.
There was Schoenut, he had to step aside.
Kilmer is still in the game. but really one
can hardly tell what he is there for.
Seventeen games. only two of which have
been lost by Mount Holly, yet there we're
those who kicked because we did not land
victory on Saturday. We have had
glory enough If we lose every game that
is to come. But we won't.
Funny, but it is always the same. Some
ol the mount Holly rooters growled and
grumbled because Silcox was not In good
shape and they wanted him fred at once.
There are some people who think the
pitcher and catcher should do all the
work, but the majority like to see the
fielders have chance.
Hafner was the star In Saturday g game.
He pulled down two in the field that |
spoiled runs. His greatest play was In |
the eighth inning aud which showed good |
headwork. Peacock was ON first. VOL |
from hunted and the ball was thrown to
first. Peacock went to second and kept
right on to third. Knowing that Davis
would throw to that station and also know
ing that he was likely to throw over Kill
ner's head or that the latter would let the
ball go past him, Hafner ran like flash
back of third base. That he had sized
'he situation correctly was shown for the
ball shot past Kilmer into Hafner's
hands. That play saved the game for
Medford as Peacock would certainly have
Icered.

Asquth and His Allies to Have Ma
 jority In Parliament.
 The first three days voting in the British parliamentary elections result ed in the choice of 99 Liberals, 19 La. borites, 27 Nationalists and 116 Union ists. On this basis the government coalition is assured of a majority of at least 100 in the new parliament, and Premier Asquith and his allies may have working majority without the aid of the Irish Nationalists.
 The most notable UniOnist gain was at Portsmouth, where Lord Charles BeresfOrd routed the LabOrite candi- date, polling 16,777 votes to 1O,5OO.
 John Burns, the British labor leader and cabinet minister, was reelected at Battersea by twice the normal Lib eral plurality.
 Winston Churchill had a great tri- umph in Dundee, defeating the Union ist candidate by plurality of 2,10O.
 Augustine Birrell and Arthur J. BalfOur were reelected by reduced pluralities.
 A remarkable feature of the voting was LondOn's refusal to be misled by jingo scandalmongers. The Tories counted on winning thirteen seats in London; they won only five. The Lib erals won two from them

SAVE PUBLIC DOMAIN,
 SAYS PRESIDENT TAFT
Special Message to Congress on Conservation.

Tn a special message on the conser- vatiOn of the nations natural re- sources sent to congress on Friday President Taft notes the deep public concern i'll the subject.
 Credit for arousing the people to the necessity of preserving the public do- main from further spoliation is frank ly given to former President Roose- welt. who began the land fraud prose cutions.
 President Taft says investigation of violations of the public land laws and prosecution of land frauds have been vigorously continued under his admin istration.
 So have the withdrawal of coal lands for classification and valuation and the temporary withholding of wa ter power sites.
 These withdrawals of power sites since March 4. 1909, he says, have prior to that date.
 Present laws, the president declares, are not adapted to dispose of public lands to private capital in a way to secure proper development and get such control as to prevent monopoly or misuse.
 He asks congress to validate the withdrawals so far made, as he doubts the power under the law of the secre- tary of the interior to have made them.
 One of the most pressing needs in public land reform, congress is told, is that lands should be classified accord ing to their principal value or use. This work should be done by the geo. logical survey.
 MT. Taft recommends that all water power sites yet owned by the govern ment be disposed of to private persons only in such a way as to prevent their union with other sites for purposes of monopoly.
 He lays great emphasis on the ne- cessity of the conservation of the soils of the country. Their productive pow CT should have the attention of scien- lists, and proper farming methods should be taught.
 In discussing dry farming" and IT, rigation the president says that too many projects in view of funds avail able have been set on foot.
 He recommends, however, the con- pletion of projects that have actually been. begun and for this purpose advo- cates an issue of $30,O00,O00 of bonds from time to time, as the secretary of the interior shall find it necessary.
 The importance of the maintenance of our forests cannot be exaggerated, the message says, and we should work toward the standard set ill for eign countries.

Deputy Sheriffs Swcrn In For Dr.
 on Pocaniico Hills Estate.
 To guard against any possible at tack that might be made upon h1m, John D. Rockefeller had seven men formerly in the United States secret service sworn in on Monday as depu- ty sheriffS Of WeStcheSter county. with jurisdiction within the bounds of the Rockefeller estate at POcanticO Hills.
 Hereafter it will be impossible for Anybody to get anywhere near the new palace at POcantico Hills until these men have found out all about the visitor.
 Ever since Harold Sawyer Smith, lumber millionaire of Minerva, O., said be had heard men plotting to kidnap or kill MT. Rockefeller on the night of Dec 1 the latter has not been free from anxiety. AS a result he decided to employ on his estate men trained to handle cranks or criminals. With this end in view he hired the seven men, who are employed about the estate at Tarrytown in the guise of cOachmen, buffers, gardeners and fOOtmen. He then asked Sheriff Scherp of White Plains to make them deputy sheriffs. Their commissions empower them to carry arms and make arrests only within the bounds of the estate.
