The Sewage Question.

| The committee of the Burlington
County Insane Asylum held meeting on
Friday and discussed the subject of dis
posing of the sewage at that institution,
The State Board of Health cited the COM
mittee to appear at Trenton, last week,
and show cause why something should
not be done. The result was that an
order was issued making it imperative
for the sewage from the Asylum to be
disposed of in such way as to prevent it
| from reaching the Rancocas creek. After
considering the several points presented
the committee decided to have a special
meeting of the Board of Freeholders
called, and Director Dubell issued the
call. the meeting to be held on Wednes-
day of next week.
In addition to the move to correct pos
sible evils at New Lisbon the State Board
has got busy along the line between that
place and the point where the Rancocas
empties into the Delaware river. At
least it has taken notice of some of the
places. Rules haye been obtained requir-
ing the corporation of Browns Mills-in-
the-Pines and the Pemberton Township
Water, Sewerage and Light Company to
show cause why they should not be re-
strained from sewering into the north
branch of Rancocas creek, in Burlington
county. Both rules are returnable at the
State House on Tuesday, April 5. The
defendants must answer on that day.
In addition to this bill has been intro
duced in the Senate compelling Mount
Holly to desist from emptying its sewage
into the Rancocas creek. The State
Board of Health had already served notice
on the township authorities here to change
the course of its sewage but the time limit
was in 1911. We do not know the
text of the bill referred to. and cannot say
whether 1t will take effect at once or
whether the township will be allowed to
have some time to devise sewage dis
posal plant.
There are other towns that seem to need
looking after and it is probable the State
Board will make an effort to reach all of
them.

Mr.. Harbert was born in Lumberton on
the third of June, 1888, and spent his
early life on farm. He became ap.
prenticed to the blacksmith business with
Alexander F. Baillie, and in 1876 be
started business for himself He became
interested in politics soon after attaining
his majority and in 1876 and 1877 repre-
sented Northampton in the Board of Free
holders. He remained out of the Board
for year but in 1879 was again elected
for two years. In 1881 he was appointed
United States Gauger and held that posi-
ton until May, 1887, when he decided to
try for the Office of Sheriff.
He succeeded in securing the nomina-
ton. Those were the days when simply
being on the Republican ticket did not
mean election and Mr. Harbert had against
him Martin L. Dunn, very prominent
and popular Democrat. After a sharp
contest Mr.. Harbert was elected by a
majority of 1888. He served satisfactorily
and at the end of his term purchased the
farm formerly owned by Robert p Haines
on the road between Mount Holly and
Newbold's Corner. From 1891 to 1898 he
again served as gauger. In 1899 be en-
tered the race for Steward of the Aims
house to succeed Theodore B. Gaskill,
who had declined to serve any longer. In
this contest Mr.. Harbert's abilities as a
shrewd, active politician, were plainly
discernible and he entered the office which
he held until the day of his death.
He had large circle of friends and ac-
quaintances all over the state and his
death will be mourned by those who have
shared his hospitality and genial fellow
ship.

chased the past winter from Harry M. G.
Fry. The mare is 5-year-old trctter and
very promising.
The weil-known trotter, Epaulet, record

was recently sold to his son, Richard
