For The Recording OF Mort.
gage To Be Higher
Recorder Parker Gets An
Important Notice

Hereafter the fee in many cases for
recording a chattel mortgage will be
more than was formerly charged. Up
to this time IL has been the custom OF
the recorder to charge 25 cents. On
Friday County Recorder Parker re-
ceived letter from the state bureau
of inspection and supervisor of pub
lie offices, in which he is instructed
to charge fee of "a cents in all In
stances where there are but two
names to the ehattel mortgage, and
to charge cents additional for each
name more than two. Inasmuch as
practically all mortgages where the
mortgagor is married contains at least
three names, the fee in the aggregate
will be materially increased.
The same fee may be charged for
refiling a chattel mortgage. The opin-
ion holds that the words searching
each paper" means ito go through
and examine carefully and in detail" :"
This is in order to obtain the data for
making the entries required by Sec
ton 1862, to-wit, the names of the
parties, the date of the instrument,
the amount secured thereby, etc.

freak of force.
He was coming south Wednesday
evening on No. 16, and at $3.50 o'clock
the train passed the Newark Cold
Storage plant. 1t was going at the
yard speed, and he heard something
strike the window of the car near him.

grain Of shot from a shotgun or pos
sibly a small pebble carried up by
the motion OF the wheels had struck
the window from the outside. II did
not come with sufficient force to pene-
trate the glass fairly, but the force
was sufficient to make a pin hole in
the outside OF the glass and knock
off spall In the inside. It was the
spall that he picked up and still car
ries with him. The remarkable thing
about the breaking of the glass ia
that the force was so distributed that
1t broke from the thick window a per-
feet plano convex lens.
The polish on the inside of the win
dow was perfect to ordinary intents
and purposes, and the breaking of the
glass with without small flaws and

the opinion that the blow on the win
