Minute on Death ot Mes. Keeler


At meeting of the managers of the
Burlington County Children Home, held
on Thursday, August thirty first, action
was taken upon the death of the Presi-
dent, the late Mrs. Morris H. Keller.
The following minute was unanimously
adopted and ordered to be entered Of
record, published in the press and copy
sent to the family:
The death of Mrs. Morris H. Keller,
late President of this home, makes it the
sad duty of the Board of Managers to
enter upon its records their acknowledge
ment of their great loss by her death and
their high appreciation Of her unvarying
courtesy, earnestness and integrity in the
performance of the duties of her office.
| For forty years Mrs. Keller was Presi-
dent of this Institution, was in constant
attendance upon its sessions, and was
always ready to do everything in her
power to promote the interest and welfare
of the Home. And it is due to her to add
that while she fully responded to the
exacting demands of the number of indi-
vidual and corporate interests intrusted
to her care, she was always ready and
willing with her means and by her efforts
to promote the public welfare. The death
of such.a woman leaves a void, and heI
life an honorable example for the emula.
ton of all.
To her family in their grief the Board
| tenders their individual heartfelt sympa
thy as sharers of their loss.

County Base Ball League.

FLORRHCE, IL, MEDFORD, q
| The final game In the Burlington County
League was played on Saturday between
Medford and Florence on the Medford
grounds Florence was out In force, seven
cars OF a special train carrying oyer 800
admirers from foundry town. And they
were full of enthusiasm with plenty Of
cash to back 1t. They made all sorts of
offers. The first man to make q run was
to be given 80 and every man scoring after
that was to be handed dollar bill. The
first bonus was raised when Charley Pea
cock crossed the plate and 81 was put into
his hands. The other runners were well
| satisfied with what came to them.
| Brown pitched for Medford, and was an
easy mark for the opposing team. Med
ford had Williams on the ground, but
Florence would not consent to his officiat-
ing, claiming that he had signed with
York. During the game Charley Peacock
was heard to say he wished Villa ms had
been In the box, they would have done
the same thing to him" Just the same
Florence would not let Williams pitch
Medford was not In 1t at any stage of
the game. Florence scored two runs In
the first inning and might have scored
kins, who thought he could steal home on
the pitcher, but was caught at the plate.
From that time the score ran up until II
runs were down to the credit OF Florence,
while Medford made but two.
Il Sweeney pitched his usual good game
for Florence, striking out is men, and that
did much to win the game, although his
} support was good. Brown was hit freely.
Florence is now the champion team Of
Burlington county, and naturally the feel.
ing Of citation Ia great. The special train
returned to that town with joyful CROWD
on board.
Sweeney tried to pitch a no-hit game
but he did not succeed, and thereby los

Before drawing the jurors Judge Horner
listened to an application to have Willard b.
Roberts removed from the Board Of Elections
in Evesham township, on the ground that the
gentleman was not a Republican. Charles
Clymer appeared in behalf of the proposition
and claimed that Roberts had voted for
Governor Wilson and had openly advocated
his election. Mr.. Roberts was called and ad
mitted that portion OF the charge but said he
supported the Republican ticket with the ex
ception fthe Governor and that he expected
to vote the Republican ticket at the nexl
election. Judge Horner said this qualified
Mr.. Roberts as q Republican and refused tt
diElodge him.
