men have decided to have grand good
time as substitute for the annual lake
carnival which has been New Egypt's big.
gest day during the past eight years. As

celebration. 1t Is the intention OF those
in charge to make this the biggest day
yet, and 1t looks as though Saturday, Aug
ust 26, will be one of the greatest days
ever witnessed in New Egypt. The town
will be alive from morning until midnight.
Special trains will be run as usual. There
Will be band music, dancing. fireworks,
and the town will be decorated.

Must Try Again.

The movement to get new road be-
tween Lakehurst and Browns Mills will
haye to walt awhile as the court has
decided there is irregularity IN the pro-
ceedings thus far instituted. 1t is claimed
the township committee of Pemberton
township acted Illegally when It awarded
the contract for the road, as 1t exceeded
the appropriation for the purpose. The
committee adopted resolution, drawn by
the township attorney, which provided
for the insuring of any deficiency that
might arise oyer and above the amount
appropriated. 1t was figured that 5000
would be needed and If the committee had
incorporated that sum In the resolution
there would not have been any trouble.
In setting aside the resolution, the Su-
preme Court says:
ITO convert money in uncertain amount,
from any balance, wherever 1t may exist
at any time, present or future, would tend
to subvert the statutory policy of the state
compelling municipal bodies to keep their
expenditures within the limit of the APP
propriations. The law should be strictly
observed. The township committee for
aught that appears have incurred by this
contract an obligation In excess of the
appropriation.
Just what course will be pursued now
is not known, but 1t is the opinion that
the work will be allowed to go ahead on
the adoption of the proper resolution.
Possibly it will be necessary to advertise
for further bids.
1t seems hard to have this improvement
held up on the technicalitY mentioned.
Already one mile Of the road is In readi-
ness for the gravel and three more miles
have had the brush and timber removed,
80 men being employed at the work.
Ocean county is going ahead In earnest.
On Tuesday the Board of Freeholders OF
that county decided to build the nine
miles of road that will connect with the
road now under way in Pemberton town
ship. Work will begin at once and it ia
expected that five miles will be completed
| this fall.

A nice string of unusually large catfish
and club was caught by two anglers n
the upper creek Sunday morning.
A jolly party of Mount Holly young
people spent Saturday night and Sunday
camping on the meadows near Smithville
During the past week boating parties
have gathered large quantities of fox
grapes and elderberries, which are pro-
life along the banks of the upper creek.
Since THE News called attention to the
rule Of keeping to the right side of the
stream when padding or rowing ON the
upper creek, great Improvement can be
observed along this line.
Owing to the advancement of summer,
evening boating on the upper creek. by
reason of the formation OF dew on the
water. calls for wraps to keep off ithe
chilly air.
Having sold the Maud to a purchaser
who will take possession of the boat in
the fall, Edward Hack has the lumber on
hand for new craft to take Its place. 1t
will be built during the winter and put in
commission next spring.
Milton Absalom, Ruby Gilbert and Rol-
and Elliott, of Florence, went to Barne-
gat to spend week, expecting to cover
themselves with glory in the fishing line.
The party remained but three days, how
ever, as they lost In their incessant battle
with mosquitoes, which constituted the
only bites they got.
The fence enclosing the grounds of the
Early Risers' Club was toppled over by
the high wind on Friday afternoon. Fur
ther evidence of the storms fury, which
attained cyclonic portions in some parts
of the county, was noticed between High
Hills and Smithville. where a number OF
trees were blown down. making naviga-
ton difficult for canoeists.
While fishing In the upper creek few
days ago, Walter Aaronson, while stand
ing on the banks of Shinn's cove, caught
black bass about fifteen inches long. He
landed 1t on the stern seat of his boat.
While Topping about, the hook came out
of the fish's mouth, and before he could
reach his prize the bass jumped back into
the water.
Having returned from season spent at
the shore. Mr.. and Mrs. Louis Rushton,
weekly visitors from Philadelphia, have re-
sumed their regular practice of camping
out oyer Saturday night along the upper
creek. They report the weather to have
been quite cold early on Sunday morning
This fact held the mosquitoes in check,
which added to the pleasure of the out.
ing. Mr.. and Mrs. Rushton are enthusias

RESULTS OF SATURDAY GAMES.

! MRDFoRD b, MOUNT HOLLY 5.
There was only one game in the County
League series on Saturday-Mount Holly
at Medford. Burlington last week with
drew from the league, leaving Florence
without regular game, and Beverly and
Riverside could find no grounds upon
which to play. Beverly and Florence ar
ranged an exhibition game. which was
played at Florence, and was won by that
club by the score of to 1.
Mount Holly continued its slump by
losing to Medford, 6 to s, In weird con-
test. When the county seat aggregation
reached Medford 1t was learned that Kelly
had not arrived, leaving the team one
man short, so Phifer was borrowed from
Medford and placed In right field.
In the first inning Hafner, for Medford,
drew pass, was advanced by Kilmer's
sacrifice, reached third on q scratch hit
by W. Linton, and crossed the pan on a
sacrifice by G. Davis. One run.
There was nothing doing after that
by either club until the sixth, when bone
head work of the superlative degree gave
Medford four runs. Kilmer walked and
stole second; w. Linton hunted and was
safe at first, Kilmer advancing to third;
Q. Davis hit to Silcox, who held the ball
to prevent Kilmer from scoring, and then
made bad throw to first, filing the
stations. Guthbrod singled, bringing In
X m nd A.,
cuPied, E. Davis hunted to Silcox, who
threw to the plate to force w. Linton.
For some reason not known to mankind,
catcher Ballingall made no effort to take
the throw, but deliberately walked away
from the plate and the ball rolled toward
the backstop. allowing w. Linton and G.
Davis to trot In unmolested.
After short delay. to allow Ballingall's
trance to pass of, play was resumed. The
situation now was-three runs, none out.
and Guthbrod on third. Ellis hit to Sill
cox, who also seemed to have a touch of
paresis, for he held the ball and Ellis, in
consequence, was safe. j. Linton walked.
and again the sacks were occupied. Brown
died on fly to substitute Phifer In right.
and that young man returned the ball to
the plate in time to retire Guthbrod-
first intelligent and meritorions play of
the inning. Hafner, who seemed to be an
easy mark, famed for the third time, and
the fatal sixth was ended.
In the eighth each team tailed one run.
s. Ballingall drew pass and got around
the circle on steal and hit by Phifer. |
For Medford e. Davis singled, stole sec
ond. and reached home on fly by j. |
Linton.
In the ninth Mount Holly came near
tieing the score. Silcox singled and stole |
second. Lentz was hit by pitched ball. |
Sisom singled, filling the bases. Silcox
scored on Lillig's sacrifice fly to left. s.
Ballingall put the ball over the right field |
fence for two bases, scoring Lentz Miller
famed. Borden got base on balls. |
Phifer singled, and Sisom and s. BalIin-
gall came home. 7. Ballingall hit clean |
one to right, on which two runs would |
have Tailed. but he ran SO slowly that the |
Medford right fielder caught him at
first, ending the game.

CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE.

CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE.
1t is really worth while cultivating the
acquaintance of "a Gentleman from
Mississippi" whose opening reception
will be heralded with great joy at the
Chestnut Street Theatre, Philadelphia,
commencing Monday matinee, August 20,
for one weeks visit. The story of the
comedy, which is breezy and bright as to
dialogue, concerns the election as Junior
Senator from the Bayou State of William
Langdon, a good-natured, wholesouled
but unsophisticated planter. In Washing
ton he is looked upon as the legitimate
prey of trio of INSCRIPTIONS representa-
tives of the people in Congress, two from
his own bailiwick, aud the other, strange
to say, and remarkable if true, from Penn.
sylvania. These three men have bought
up great portion of the land comprised
in the town of Ariconla, Miss, and it is
their intention of selling it TO the Govern
ment at a handsome profit for a naval
base, backed by the Standard Steel Com
pany. Langdon's son and eldest daughter
Che has two of them) have invested heavily
in the scheme.
The Senator does not know this and he
gets into all sorts of dilemmas from which
he is extricated by his bright secretary,
who sees through every move of those
who would ruin his employers reputation.
"a Gentleman from Mississippi" is a
play in four acts, by Harrison Rhoees and
Thomas A. Wise. 1t had its local premier
last season at the Walnut Street Theatre
Fresh from long-distance runs in New
York and elsewhere, the play made an
instantaneous hit and was the attraction
at the Walnut for a good many weeks
This is not because of any heralding il
got from its popularity in other cities. but
because the play in itself had the merit.
