ahout the disastrous fire that swept
the village Of Red jacket practically
from end To end on that date just 40
years ago.
Ii was on the morning Of May is.
1870. according 10 one of the oldest
residents OF this district that man
wac engaged i'm burning up quantity
OF brush that was scattered all over
Yellow Jacket. from the old Tamarack
location 10 the outskirts of the village.
AT the time he started the bush fires
the wind was blowing from the east.
ana not the least danger was anticpat-
ed. as the fire was creeping westward,
away from the village. But suddenly
tho wind veered from the east 10 the
west, and the fire took a backward
sweep. running toward Red Jacket
with tightening like velocity For
time no fears were entertained for the
safety of the village although some
villagers. The News informant among
the number. began 10 grow suspicious, !
and eventually started removing !
trunks and articles of furniture from |
their homes on the east side of Fifth ;
street to places Of safety
The wind was blowing a hurricane
al the time, and the dust and smcNe
was rolling i'm binding clouds. With
no fire protection to speak Of, and
water scarce, it was soon apparent
that unless the onrush of the flames
was stopped Red Jacket or the
greater part of il. would be doomed
Heroic attempts are told of the eff
forts TO fight the fire. but all proved
futile and IL was not until three bus

village, bounded on the one side 10y
Elm street and on the other by Port

out OF eXistence that the fire subsid-

enormous. The fire will always be re-
for it's disastrous conse-
quences. and as surely as the date Of
the connagration comes round, will the
older folks shake their heads and re-
peat all over again the story OF the =,
5reatest fire that ever visited this Sec =

Merchants, Picnic.

The first annual picnic of the merchants
and other business men of Mount Holly
was held at Rancocas Park on Thursday
afternoon and evening, and proved sue
cess in every particular. All business wa:
practically suspended at noon, even the
drug stores joining in the movement, and
1t is doubtful1f there has ever been such
a general observance of a holiday in
Mount Holly. There was no pre-arranged
program, and allwere expected to enjoy
the outing In their own way Over a
thousand people were present at the park
In the evening, and the dance floor was
crowded to its greatest capacity.
Although the widest publicity had been
given the affair, and cards announcing the
closing hour had been prominently dis
played In the stores, some complaints have
been made by persons who neglected to
make purchases until Thursday afternoon,
and felt themselves aggrieved because of
their inability to do so.
A silver handled pen knife, offered by
A. Kropp, proprietor of the Mill street
bowling alley, as prize for the person
rolling an eighteen pound bowling ball
the greatest distance, was captured by
Loring s. Borton, who sent the ball ia
feet.
The feature of the afternoon was the
long talked-of base ball game between the
merchants and printers, and the large
crowd decided the event fully up to ex-
pectations. The printers won, as had been
predicted, but the merchants put up hard
fight, and at no time of the game was
there any certainty as to the result of the
contest. The features were catch of
foul fly by Fryer, beautiful catch and
throw by Kingdom. completing double
play; and the pitching of Cain, who had
the merchants completely at his mercy,
allowing them but two hits In the five in
nings he occupied the box Now that the
excitement is over the players are wonder
ing whether they had fun enough to com
pensate them for the sore arms and stiff
backs which they endured for two or
three days. The score:
