Political Notes.


Politics are warming up and candidates
are springing up all over.
Candidates for Sheriff on the Democratic
ticket are scarce but they will probably
bob up later.
Harry Hawkins, Jr., has announced bis
candidacy for the Republican nomination
for County Auditor.
Charles A. Rigg has announced that he
will be a candidate for the Republican
nomination for Surrogate.
Funny how a man with keen perceptions
on almost any subject cannot see that he
is being made catspaw by certain people
who have ambitions to satisfy, or
grievances to settle.
There will probably be number of
Democrats willing to try for the nomina-
ton for Surrogate. although Joseph Huff.
of Mount Holly, is the only man to thus
far positively announce himself. Albert
P. Silpath, of Burlington, is said to have
a leaning that way.
Tnere promises to be lively contest
for the Republican nomination for Surro-
gate, four candidates now being in the
field. William P. Lippincott, the present
incumbent, and Howard Russ, have been
at work for some time. Charles A. Rigg,
deputy Surrogate. and Frank 8. Davis, Of
Mount holly, have announced their inten-
ton of trying for the nomination.
Frank s. Dayis has card in The News
this week in which he announces his
candidacy for the Republican nomination
for Surrogate. He will canvass the
county and will abide by the decision Of
the Republican voters to whom he makes
his announcement. Mr. Davis Is one of
Mount Holly's successful business men
and has served acceptably as township
collector for a number of years.

The capture of an clipping couple In 8
vacant barn, on Friday morning, where
they had subsisted on few crackers fol-
three days, and their commitment to the
county jail, adds other names to the list
OF important arrests made by Constable
Nelson Peak during the past year, for
which he has been congratulated by the
authorities.
The clipping couple were Wesley Wells,
son of Samuel Wells. aged 81 years, and
Emma j., daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Amos
Wilkins. aged 10 years. The runawaYs
live on adjoining farms on the road from
Medford to Lumberton. They had become
acquainted with each other by the passing
of notes and post cards.
On Tuesday Mrs. Wilkins and her
daughter spent part of the day at the
grounds Of the Medford Field Club, and
1t was during the evening that Emma
became missing just as her mother went
after the horse and carriage to drive home.
Between the base ball grounds and the
stable the girl met Wells and she at once
decided to fee with him. A search failed
to find her, and on Thursday the matter
was placed in the hands of County Detec-
tive Ellis II. Parker, who sent out de-
scription OF the pair and asked for their
arrest. In the meantime Parker got busy
and made thorough search of the neigh
borhood, but he got no clue to their
whereabouts until Friday morning, when
a tip was given him by William Alloways,
VINO reported that the man and girl had
applied at his house for something to eat
on Thursday night. The clippers were
driven by hunger from their hiding place
which proved to be an old barn in a field
on the farm owned by Arthur Prickitt, on
the road leading from Cross Roads to
Fostertown. In this vacant building
Wells and his youthful companion re-
manned In seclusion from Tuesday night
until Friday morning, when their pres
ence was revealed by Peak after he had
searched all buildings in that neighbor-
hood. They were not very sorry over
their capture as food was commodity
that was pinching them hard.
The couple were brought to Mount
Holly and at the Jail were given hearing
before Prosecutor Atkinson and Justice
Risdon. Wells pleaded guilty and he was
held for court. After Emma had con-
fessed and told the details of her expert
ence to the Prosecutor, she was discharged
In the custody of her parents, who took
her home. The father was willing to give
her chance, but said If she made another
misstep that he would have her sent to
the reform school. There seemed to be a
disagreement of statements between the
parents about bringing up the girl, which
is likely to end In trouble later on. The
girl. however, swore that she was kindly
treated by both her father and mother,
which did not tally with their converse
ton before leaving the jail

Trolley Stops indicated Auto
fmaf}ca11w-

There Is being exhibited In one of the
cars Of the Burlington County Traction
Company novel and useful device that
should PROVE very popular with the trav-
cling public. 1t is box-Iike affair sus-
pended from the ceiling of the car and
indicates, by printed card, the name of
each stopping place on the road. AS soon
as the car starts bell rings. the card in
the machine changes, and the name of the
next stopping point is shown. This is
repeated from one end Of the road to the
other, SO that at all times the passengers
know exactly where they are, without
asking any questions.
The indicator, as 1t La called, is operated
by electricity. works automatically, and
shows the names of stops on both sides,
so that 1t can be seen from any point in
the car. Contact points on the overhead
trolley wire strike the trolley pole and
the current Is thus transmitted to and
operates the indicator.
A party of men made the trip from
Mount Holly to Burlington on Friday to
see the indicator in operation, and all
were much pleased with the innovation.
Every street or road crossing was shown
with accuracy.
Persons travelling on trolley cars. unless
familiar with the locality and stops, often
find it confusing to know where to get
of. Conductors sometimes fail to call the
stops or Outlines cannot be heard or
understood when they do make the an
nouncement. The device above explain
ed is to obviate these difficulties.
The indicator is manufactured and is
being placed in cars by the Mann Indi-
Gator Company of Alliance, Ohio. The
revenue from the machines Is derived
from advertisements that are shown in
connection with the names of stopping
points. Agreements to install indicators
have been made with the Public Service
Corporation for all Its cars In New Jersey;
with the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Com
pany, and with other companies in the
large cities. The indicators are to be
placed this week In the cars Of the local
trolley company. G. E. Lang, general
agent, is the representative Of the COM
pany who is introducing the device in
this section.

WHAT IS A COLD in the head? Nothing
to worry about if you treat it with Ely's
Cream Balm. Neglected, the cold may
grow into catarrh, and the air-passages be
so infarned that you have to fight for
every breath. 1t is true that Ely's Cream
Balm masters catarrh, promptly. But you
know the old saying about the ounce of
prevention. Therefore use Cream Balm
when the cold in the head shows itself.

Base Bail.

There was good audience at the ball
grounds on Tuesday, to witness the game
between the Mount Holly and Haines-
port teams and the contest will not
be excelled this season. The score ended
Sto Q Mount Holly got its runs In the
first inning and 1t was well that such was
the case as the home team was not able to
do anything with the delivery of Bozarth
after that inning. In fact 1t was not the
hits that did all the business then. OAR
ing base running figured very largely in
the result. A base on balls, scoring from
first to home on hit and daring run, an
error by the pitcher for Hainesport who
threw to second to catch runner, but
threw wildly, letting the ball go into the
field, on which there was another daring
dash to the home plate, contributed to the
success of the home team. After that
there was no scoring by Mount Holly.
Haiuesport's runs were chargeable to an
error by Mount Holly's right field and first
base, the former dropping fly ball and
following this with bad throw, and the
latter making bad throw.

Perkins is playing at PerkasIe, Pa, this
season He has his stick with him. On
Decoration day, In one game he got

There was some disappointment over
the fact that the grounds at Mount Holly
were not in shape for the opening game
of the Burlington County League, which
was to have been played with Medford.
But such was the case and the lovers of
the game will be pleased to know that
they will see the opening game on the
home grounds, as Riverside will play here
on Saturday.
A new schedule has been arranged for
the Burlington County League 1t is as
