THE LITTLE AUTO BONNET.

There are roses in the hedges,
Scarlet lilies in the sedges,
And the cowslip, golden petaled as a
star
But the blossom for lover
Laughs beneath the silken cover
OF the little auto bonnet in the car.
Oh, the little auto bonnet
With the tufts and frills upon it,
And the chiffon bow that's tied be-
meath the chin,
How carelessly II presses
On the curly truant tresses
That refuse to keep their naughty
selves withini
All. the little auto bonnet,
It's lyric, it's sonnet,
It's a triofet, a madrigal, a song!-
For in such exalted phrases
l am bound to sing its praises
Till the aviation bonnet comes along
Arthur Grinterman in Good House
keeping.

PRICE TWO CENTS
Conductor Thaddeus
Burns, of johnson Line,
Beaten and Robbed.

One of the boldest hold-ups recorded
in years occurred on a Lambertville troll
ley car late last Thursday night, when
rhaddeus Burns, conductor, residing

car outside of New Hope. After leaving
Yardley one of the passengers tough

fare. Burns demonstrated and the other
passengers, all of whom seemed to be
! companions of the disturber went to
the latter's assistance. One ofthem final
ly struck the conductor singing blow
! over the eye and he reeled to the plat
form, with the ruflians following.
Defending himself as best he could
Burns succeeded in keeping up amid
showers of blows and kicks, although
many times he was on the verge being
thrown from the platform of the swiftly
moving car He was unable to summon
his motorman and the latter proceeded
towards Trenton, unaware of the fight.

ians, evidently fearing their work would
be discovered, pushed unfortunate con-
ductor inside the car were he Law on the
floor until the car was well on the cal
houn street bridge. One of the assail-
ants was for throwing the conductor in
to the Delaware, but others remonstrat-
ed and Burns was left to finish his
hazardous trip into Trenton, the eight
men jumping from the car and running
back to Morrsville.
When the car pulledin at Hanover and
| Warren streets the motorman found
Burns covered with blood and in
semi conscious condition.
The affair was at once reported to
the Bucks county authorities, descrip-
ton of the men being given by Burns.
| The unfortunate conductor was for
ced to remain at home because of his
| INJURIES until Wednesday afternoon when
he appeared with badly dishgured
face and seriously bruised body.
Since the assault the other car mer
of the different suburban lines have beer
fearful of a return Of the hold-np mer

With the advent of the first snow

Trolley Line Affiliated.

A Califon correspondent of the New
ark Evening News, under date of Feb
ruary IS, says:
Philadelphia and Trenton capitalists
are being interested by corporation
and railroad specialist in proposition
to build an electric railway northward
through Hunterdon county and Morris
county. The proposed route is to
connect with the Trenton street rail-
way at Lambertvile and extend to
Rlngoes, Pennington, Hamden, Gin
ton, High Bridge, Califon, Middle Val
ley, Naughtright, BARLEY, Flanders, to
Ledgewood, where connections will be
made with the Morris County Fraction
Company line. 1t is thought perhaps
the route may be from German Valley
by way of Chester and Mendham to
Morristown.
he specialist states that there is a
combination of circumstances that
might make it possible to build such a
line il some local encouragement was
given. 1t is proposed to carry freight
as well as passengers.
The northern portion of the county
would be put in direct connection with
the county seat and the State capital.
The road would be great conven-
fence to western Morris county. At the
present time the train schedule is such
that to get to the county seat in time
for court persons have to start the day
before. During the next fortnight con-
ferences will be held with the leading
citizens along the proposed route as to
its construction.
