From oIivet 70 Calvary"

The choir of the First Presbyterian
church, under the direction of Mrs.
Kate Elizabeth Fox. will render on
Sunday evening. J-SH. Maunder's
sacred cantata, From Olivet to Cal
vary
This cantata recalls in simple
and reverent manner the scenes mark
ing the last few days of the Saviour's
life on earth,- the chief features being
the rejoicing of the multitude with
hosannas and palms, the view of
Jerusalem from the steep of Olivet,
the lament over the. beautiful city,
the scene in the temple, and the
lonely walk back over the Mount at
night, the Supper Of the Passover, at
which Jesus washes His disciples
feet, giving His friends the new com
mandment of love, the pathos of the
Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus forsakel
by His disciples, the tumult before
Plate in the Judgment Hall, and the
tragedy and triumph of Calvary.

l7oFsci Runapout ana SaffieSs Belong-
ing TO David A. Wilguss Stolen.
A thief who evidently wanted only
the good things in life visited the
stable of David A. Willguss in the
rear of No. 55 Elm street some time
during the night and out OF four
horses and several carriages, wagons
and harness selected the best.
The thief forced open the stable
door by prying off its paddock. A
lantern used by Mr. Wiliguss was
used by the thief in making his selec-
tions. He took Mr.. willguss best
horse, a bay with scar ON its neck,
a rubber-tired runabout and a new set
OF harness and drove away with the
outfit.
The owner discovered his loss when
he went to the stable this morning
to get team and wagon. He is
the janitor of the Market Street Mis-
sion building and also delivers kin
ding wood from the mission wood
yard. The loss was reported to the
police. Mr.. Willguss estimates the
horse wagon and harness to be worth
$500

Would Change Street Names.

Residents of the neighborhood OF
franklin street are thinking of petit
tioning the board Of aldermen TO
change the name of Franklin street
TO Franklin avenue. Franklin street
runs from Elm street to Ford avenue.
From Ford avenue it continues on to
Madison avenue as Franklin avenue
AS there is also a franklin place III
the same neighborhood the three
streets all bearing the name of the
great American it is proposed to elm
mate one of them and make Frank
lin street Franklin avenue from end
to end.
There are other streets in Norris
town bearing two and three names
for different sections and it would
be well for the aldermen to take the
whole matter under advisement and
perhaps eliminate some of the con-
fusion that now exists.

ANOTHER HOLD-UP
FOR TROLLEY ROAD
Condemnation Proceedings May
Drag Through Courts


Legal proceedings preliminary to
the building of the Morris County
Traction Co. line from Morristown
through Madison and Chatham to
Summit promise to be of indefinite
duration unless the trolley company
utilizes the charter of steam road
that it owns under which to condemn
the necessary land.
Elmer King as counsel for the troll
ley company applied Saturday to JUS
tice Parker for the appointment OF
condemnation commissioners to as
sess the value of the land needed by
the trolley company for its road be-
tween Morristown and Chatham. The
properties involved include the Twom
biey. Lidgerwood and Ford estates,
properties of Otto H. Kahn, DIR. r.
Landon Humphreys, the Morris Coun-
ty Golf club, David Brown and Sisters
of st. Elizabeth
Among counsel appearing for the
property owners in opposition to the
application were Senator Edward X.
Mills. Robert H. McCarter and Rich
ard V. Lindaberry. They advanced
the argument that the trolley COM
panys charter did not give the JUS
tice the right to appoint the commits
sioners as the act under which the
charter was granted did not provide
that the trolley company should first
secure the approval of the governing
bodies of the municipalities through
which the proposed road is to run
as to its location, particularly as the
proposed road crossed public high
ways.
AS every trolley road built since
the act was passed by the legis-
lature since 1893 has proceeded in the
same manner as the Morris County
Traction Co., if the contention IS
proved correct it will mean that many
miles of trolley roads were built IL
legally in this state.
Justice Parker decided that the
argument merited consideration by
the Supreme court. He told Mr.. King
that he would appoint the commits
sioners and grant the opponents a
writ of certiorari to carry the mat
ter before the court or he would re-
fuse the application and would give
Mr.. King a writ mandamus asking
the court to compel the justice to APP
point the commissioners Mr.. King
chose the latter course and will Sc
cure the write this week. 1t is un-
derstood that the opposing property
owners propose to fight the case by
every legal means.
But it is asserted that the trolley
company has a loophole through
which it can secure the property
needed. 1t owns the Hopatcong Shore
railroad chartered by the state as a
steam railroad. The latter company
can secure the needed property with
out recourse to any legal hindrances
by the property owners. 1t is eX-
pected that the steam road will locate
the railroad and then lease it to the
trolley company which its charter
gives it the right to do.
