IS GONE NOW

The death of Nellie" has interest
ed good many people and the obit-
uary will be read with much interest
by many others. Nellie" is a dog,
plain, ordinary, every day, without-a-
pedigree dog.
Just where Nellie came from per-
haps nobody knows, or how she hap
pened to be named, but the little waif
dog was known to them all as Nellie,
and she always had welcome ac-
acknowledgements for all who spoke to
her.
In the winter Nellie lived at the gas
works, where she was fed by the en-
ployes, and in the summer the little
Walf spent the time in the city park.
Always quiet and affectionate, the
little yellow dog made friends on
sight. Nellie had regular places for
visiting throughout the day and every
where she was always welcome. Yes
terday it was reported that the dog
showed symptoms of going mad, and
telephone call was sent to city hall,
and one of the officers appeared with
a big shot gun. For a little while
there was considerable excitement
around the park entrance, until the
park superintendent took the dog in
charge and locked her up. Then af-
ter dinner veterinary was called to
examine the little waif, and he ad-
vlsed that while the animal was not
mad, that the symptoms were such that
ne would adv Sc killing the animal.
Officer Aaron Smith was sent for and
with his revolver put the little dog
out of its misery.
The park superintendent had little
grave dug and the little dog was bur-
led on the park property that she
loved so well.

SIMPLE REMEDY
TO RID FLIES

Now is the time to put up your
screen doors and windows. Don't wait
until the flies and "skeets' actually
arrive. The old adage, IAN ounce Of
prevention, etc, is aptly exemplified
in this.
Screen may be put up now just as
we'll as three weeks hence, and per-
haps with less cost to you.
Speaking of flies-which afesn now
regarded as one of the greatest men
aces to health-Edward Hatch, chair
man of the American Civic Associa-
tion's fly fighting campaign, lays down
the following simple rule. Read ita
Twenty drops of carbolic acid vap-
orized on a hot shovel will kill the
flies in room of ordinary size. A
tablespoon of formaldehyde in a quar-
ter of pint of water, exposed in a
shallow dish, will have the same eff
feet. The burning of pyrethrum pow
der will stupefy the flies, so that they
may be swept up and burned. Care
must be taken to see that each of the
drugs recommended is fresh and
pure"

BR|DGE7ON HIGH
TAKES THIS ONE

Having got the most of the bad base
ball out of it's system Saturday after
noon in the game with Camden High,
the local high school yesterday after
noon resumed it's winning ways, and
properly defeated Collingswood. Score
4 to 3.
The job of yesterday started off to
be an easier task than it finally de-
veloped. Bridgeton showed couple
of runs across in the first and another
tally was made in the third. The
fourth run for Bridgeton went over the
rubber in the fifth.
In the meantime Collingswood was
as runless as Mexico is of peace. Ar
cher was battling with his twirling.
In the eighth Collingswood got cou-
pie of runs and loomed up dangerous,
having scored one in the fifth. Bowen
came in and pitched out the game.
Capt. Ogden was a bit off in his
fielding. The score:

CITY COUNCIL
WILL BUILD
WATER PLANT
Ordinance for That Purpose
Passed Upon Two
Readings.
PROTEST BY
23O PETITIONERS
Council Had Long, Busy Session
and There Was Lot of Busi-
ness Transacted.
CITY COUNCIL, 1911

City Council last night had perhaps
the most important session since the
charter has been in effect. The coun-
Gil passed an ordinance upon two read
ipgs providing for the building of a
new water plant upon the park prop
erty, and to get the city water supply
from the northwest passage of the
Tumbling Dam pond. The council
also provided for an issue of $4,000
of bonds. 81
The council also passed on an ordi-
nance upon two readings for the build
ing Of a sewage disposal plant.
There was a protest signed by 23O
persons voicipg sentiment against
city water supply. This petition was
signed in response to considerable ad-
vertising in the News. The petitions
have been in circulation for two
weeks.
Minutes of the last meeting were
read and approved.
Immediately applications for build
ing permits were taken up, and the
following were granted.
H. Silverman, portico at No. go Wal
nut street.
H, H. Hankins, p9ftico at 1888 Walnut
street.
H. H. Hankihs, single dwelling
house on Irving avenue, adioining r.
wing avenue Presbyterian Church.
H. H. Hankins, single dwelling house
on West Commerce street, adjoining
of Albert Barker and S. S.
Johnson.
H. H. Hankins & Bro, portico, As
Church street.
H. H. Hankins G Bro, repair build
ing, southwest corner Bank street and
Irving avenue.
H. H. Hankins & Bro, barn at 2O6
Bank street.
H. H. Hankins & Bro, portico at Ss
North Pearl street.
Joseph Steelman, portico at Jail
warden's residence, Broad street.
Joseph Steelman, dwelling No. 229-
233 East Commerce street.
Maier G Barnes, dwelling house
Giles and Hampton streets.
There was an indication that city
council felt that too little attention
was being given to the application for
building PERMITS. 1t was shown that
a number of the buildings applied for
were already in course of erection.
The ordinance provides that no work
can be done until city council grants
a proper permit, and it is quite likely
that unless the applications made in
the future are not presented before
work is begun, there will be some
embarrassment upon the part of the
contractors.
A copy of an agreement between the
Central Railroad and the City of
Bridgeton, for the laying of sewer
pipes under the railroad bed at Lin
coin street, was presented and read.
The agreement was approved by city
council.
Bentley W. Rogers presented to city
council a protest against the scheme
proposed by'city council to take water
from the Tumbling Dam lake. The
protest was signed by 23O names. The
petition was received and filed.
Commissioner of Public Safety Geo.
H. Hughes made a short report 1t
showed 20 police calls had been made

GASOLINE STOVE
CAUSED FIRE
The Danger Was Great for a
Moment.
DEPARTMENT OUT
Also Alarm Turned in and the Fire
Department Responded
Promptly.

The fire department was called out
this morning by an alarm from box
20. The fire was a gasoline stove at
90 Cohansey street, the home of
Charles Vanmetre.
1t was not serious, but this was
attributed to the heroic action of Miss
Maude Vanmetre, the daughter, more
than to any other circumstance per-
haps.
Mrs. Vanmetre, it seems, had par
TALLY turned on the gasoline and went
into a neighbor, Mrs. Newcomb, for
getting to turn it off, and the fluid
dripped over. Maude lighted the gas
oline, and Immediately there was an
explosion. The flames shot up. Mauie
screamed, Mrs. Newcomb, come here
quick" Not waiting, she grabbed I'd
the stove herself and carried it oJt of
the kitchen into the back yard.
1t was almost marvellous she was
not set on fire as it was she was badly
burned in the face almost to a blister.
In the meantime, Mrs. Newcomb ran
to Foler's resta urant and Foler tul aed
in the alarm.
By way of remark, the splendid fire
alarm system threw off several diuer-
ent tattoos to warn the people that
there was fire some where, bat the
department got there all right, and
soon extinguished the flames in the
kitchen.

hOLAW VIOLATION
No Statute Forbids Sending Of
War Munitions Into A
Mexico.
FINE DISTINCTION
DRAWN
Preccdcnts Brought Forth to
SHOW Position This Coun-
try Has Taken.

Washington. March 1S.-Careful
study of the neutrality laws has loft
the administra tons advisers doubling
graveir if the United States can to-
tally prevent the shipment of arms
and ammunition to tho Mexican insur-
rectos. The Department OF Justices
view Of tho law and its study of the
precedcnts seems to bear out tho CON
tention, az viewed by administration
officials, that tho government can con
troll in a measure the shipments OF
arms dealing with each particular case
/, according to the circumstances sur
rounding ii. hli; there Is no general
statute which fatty forhids the shin
Nlent of arms.
Attorney General Harmon in 1895
gave an opinion 10 the State Depart
nlent regarding shipment OF arms to
tho Cuban insurrcctos, in which he
declared that the mere sale o., ship
ncnt OF arms and munitions Of war
by persons In the United States to
persons in Cuba is not a violation Of
international law, however strong a
suspicion there may be that they are

In the Wiborg case, which WAS one
of the filibusterers to Cuba the Su-
prone Court of the United States uf-
firmed the opinion Of the court below
that it was no crime TO transport NUM-
tons of war 10 another country If they
were 10 lie used for war or not. and
that IT was not an offcnsc to TRANSPORT
persons intending 10 enlist in a for
eign army and munitions of war, on
the same trip.
Upholds Fine DistInction.
The court, however, upheld the iino
dist inction that 1t would have bocp :,
breach of law If both the persons in
tending to enlist and the munitions of
war being transported we're parts Of
the same military expedition planned

To the establishment Of Ill save those
with whom he has been most closely

| dtor OF Public Accounts Of Virginia,
announced yesterday that he will re-
tire from Office at the expiration of his
present term on March 1. IaI2, and will
not be candidate for election at tho
hands OF the next General Assembly.
1t is the purpose of Captain Dono-
hoe to return to his home at Fairfax.
where he will resume his business in
tercsts and the publication OF a weekly
newspaper.
There can be. it may be said authori-
tatively. no reason whatever from a
political viewpoint for this action on
the part OF tho State Auditor. II had
been anticipated on tho part of every
body that he would be elected By The
Legislature without opposition, and the
general opinion is that so far as could
be foresccn. he would stay in Office
so long as ho desired.
Feels Call OF Home.
The actual reason for the retire
ment of Captain ponohoo is simply. 1 he
