who insist that this man by virtue of
holding one job that pays $1,000 yearly
, is not entitled to the appointment as a
motor boat inspector. Ibis element de-
clare that the inspectorship should have
gone to man who really needs the sal
airy and not to one who receives fat pay
from the borough Marsteller is not
wanted in his school position. This has
been demonstrated BY the people more
than once, and therefore the political en-
dorsement he received for his summer
job is condemned OH all sides. On the
streets the question is asked, who Sc
cured that job for Marsteller?" And the
reply never seems to satisfy the inquirer,
for it is hard to CONVINCE a man that
Marsteller was the only eligible candi-
date for the place This is the claim of
organization leaders, with one or two
exceptions, and the big list of Marsteller
opponents are as mad as hornets.
If the band plays dead march in
Pleasantvillc this fall the Marsteller
aliiliation with the otherwise strong Re
publican organization will be one of the
causes to that end. is the final summing

EMORY HELFRICH'S
EYE ON THE BALL
Local Boy Plays the Game, Minds His Bus
mess and Wins The Admiration Of
Thousands Of Enthusiasts

Emory Helfrich's brilliant perform
anees with the stick in both Leeds
games won for Baders Collegians over
Senator McNichors pets In the game
on the seventeenth, played at the Inlet
Park, EN-" furnished the single in the
closing half on the ninth session that
showed over the lone tally in the game
for victory. On Saturday last the
to retrieve and Helfrich's effective hit
ting at the crucial moment again snatch
ed victory from ''Toots' Shultz.
Emory IIelfrich finished the public
school course of Pleasantvillc, then sur
mounted the difficulties set in his path
BY the local Board of Education by
making a successful entry into the At
lantie City high school. He was a mem
Der of the Glass of 90, and was the star
on the base ball team that year. He
invariably batted out victory for the
locals with the best of Philadelphia
scholastic teams, and his performances
commanded the attention of the Col
legians' management.
Emory pushed Earl Mack to the limit
last year, and only alleged favoritism
toward Connie Mack's nephew kept the
local lad from a regular position.
Emory completed his first year studies
at Peddie this year, and when the school
closed he joined the Collegians. Mack
returned as usual but illness kept him
out of the game. Helfrich made good
with his first appearance, and the Of
feials of the local club have expressed
themselves as satisfied with his showing
so far this season.
Emory is of the unpretentious type of
american ball player, says the Atlantic
City Daily Press.
Bader predicts a great future for the
young player. Commodore Kuehnle is
great admirer of EN- and was among
the: first to observe his qualities.
He is hitting close to Catcher Dillon.

LATE PAPER; NO WATER

This issue Of The Press is behind the
usual time of leaving the printing press
es, because the Pleasautyille Water Com
pany is months and months behind in
keeping its contract with the borough.
Every wheel in the printing Office was at
a standstill Thursday afternoon and
Friday morning for more than one total
working day. Total absence of water
rendered the big gas epgine helpless,
with the above result. Superintendent
Bostock's nerves have innumerable jolts
these days and this latest trouble with
the pumps was not curative agency in
the least. While the pumps were being
driven to their capacity Friday, they
were not sending the proper amount Of
water.

THE SCHOOL PROBE HALTED

By order of counsel, one of the chief
witnesses before the committee appoint
ed by the Senate to inquire into school
management in cities has fatty refused
to answer questions, aud has raised the
point that inasmuch as the Senate has
adjourned sine die the investigating com
mittee has no further authority. In a
word, that it does not legally exist.
This defiant attitude is taken by Coun-
ty Register Mcmahon, of Hudson. He
has been involved in the sale of North
Bergen property to the local Board of
Education, buying the land through
another party, having part of it sold
to the board at greately increased prices
and then taking title to the lots that
were left. All this while he was custo-
dian of the school funds. When first
placed on the witness stand he glibly
detailed these facts as though he was
proud of his cunning.
