NEW LAWS THAT AUTOMOBILISTS
MUST OBSERVE.

Under one OF the laws Just passed
by the Legislature all automobiles op-
Grated in this State must have their
exhaust pipes from the engine direct
ed parallel to the ground or DETECTED
slightly upward. This will necessi-
tate change in the exhaust pipes of
hundreds of motor cars, as the large
majority of those operated carry ex-
haust pipes directly toward the
ground. The object of the new law
is to preserve the improved roads of
the state, it having been found that.
the constant exhausting of gases from
the engines of automobiles directly
into the surface of the highways
Flows out the fine top dressing and
thus adds in the "ravellingD of the
roads
The State Motor Vehicle Department
is promulgating all the automobile
laws passed by the Legislature. The
new statutes have been printed in
leafet form and are being distributed
broadcast among the autonlobilists in
the State.
The most important of the laws of
course is the Stickel reciprocity meas
ure, which grants a fifteen-day free
touring privilege, without registra-
ton, to all nonresident motorists
who are properly licensed in their
own State, and which makes other
provisions that have already been
fully published.
Another new law provides that mo-
tor vehicle tires may be fitted with
chains when roads and streets are
slippery because of rain, snow, ice, oil
or manner of construction; provided
that no chains shall be used on inn
proved highways when they are dry
or their condition does not make such
use necessary for the safety of life or
property. The old law provided that
there must be at least one inch of
snow before chains could be used
The third new motor vehicle law re-
quires every driver of such vehicle to
use devices to prevent excessive noise,
annoying smoke and the escape of
gases and steam, as we'll as the fall
ing out of embers or residue from the
I fuel. Devices known as ''muff1er scut-
outs shall not be used within the
limits of any city or town, or within
200 feet of any horse drawn vehicle on
the public highway. This law also
includes the provision requiring ex-
haust pipes to be detected away from
the ground The fine for the viola
| ton of this statute is fine not ex-
ceeding $50.

S. S. SPRING CONFERENCE.


The Annual Spring Conference of
the Gloucester County Sunday School
Association was held last Thursday
in the NJ. E. Church, at Clarksboro.
The sessions during the day were
largely attended and the workers were
very kindly received and served with
the ladies of the church
Dr. Gilmour, of Wenonah, that vet
eran leader of song, was on hand as
usual, and cheered the folks on in
song and praise.
Rev. Samuel A. Harker, of Clayton,
opened the conference with devotions.
He was followed by Mr. T. Shreve
Durham, International Supt of Visit
alton, who addressed the people on the
idea of a house to house visitation to
find out who your neighbors are, and
their church relations. Today the de-
mand is for cooperation, not one
church all united under one name
but rather the motto for all is,
"Denominational Loyalty and Kingdom
Vision If the church is doing what
it should do there would be no need
of all these outside organizations The
church of the living God should be the
medium for the salvation of the world
The clarion call is Come back to the
Church; every man stand in his
place. His reason for a home visi-
tation is that "We cannot save the
people unless we teach them, and
we cannot teach them unless We
reach them" The average in our
county attending the Sunday school is
one out of every six. The object of
the home visitation is to reach every
home in the shortest space of time.
Gloucester County is to be visited next
September by the Association.
Miss Alice B. Hamlin, State Grade
Superintendent, followed with a very
strong plea for grading in our Sunday
schools, giving rightful divisions for
proper grading, and stated that the
smallest school could be graded
Rev. Forrest e. Dagger, of Philadel-
phia, spoke on the subject how to in
terest the boy and girl to secure
church attendance on their part. In
his usual forceful and convincing
way, he told how he worked with the
boy by being chum with him, be-
ing his friend in time of trouble, CIV
! ing encouragement and keeping hold
upon him.
The afternoon session began by a
conference led by Miss Hamlin, which
/ was followed by an address on Teach
er Training by Rev. w. e. Foote, OF
| Princeton. He gave very interest
/ ing outline of the history of the He
brew people and other points showing
I the outline of a training course and
| its Importance.
Mr. Francis Buckingham spoke OF
the county work, its progress and all
so regarding the county picnic which
will be held this year at Alcyon Park
on July II.
In the Central Baptist Church at
Woodbury. in the evening, Miss Ham
lin gave an illustrated lecture on what
the Sunday School is doing in New
Jersey.

PAID THE PENALTY
Ostracised by Her White Friends. Jack
JohnsOn's Wife Committed
Suicide

Chicago. Ill, Sept. 12.-Shunned and
ostracised by the people of her own
race because she married a negro, the
wife Of Jack Johnson, the heavyweight
champion sugilist. shot herself at their
home here yesterday and died last
night.
Johnson's wife was a woman of
rather striking appearance, being
blonde and pretty. When she married
Johnson several years ago she was the
divorced wife Of Clarence Duryea, the
well known New York turfman, and
had mixed with good society. She was
well educated.
When Johnson fought Fireman
Jim" Flynn at Las Vegas. y. NJ, some
months ago, his wife told the few
friends that remained loyal TO her that
she was very unhappy, "a nearly all
of her former friends had avoided her
since she married a negro.

MRS. IABO'S MONEY
Alleged to he the Incentive Which
Caused q New York Lawyer ts
Choke Her 10 Death

New York, Sept 13.-Burton w. Glib
son, the New York lawyer whose client,
Mrs. Rosa Menschik Szabo. lost her life
while boating with him, was arrested
by Deputy Sheriff Degraw of Orange
county yesterday, on a warrant charg-
ing Gibson with murder in the first
degree.
II develops, according to statements
made by the authorities, that Mrs.
Szabo was strangled, possibly after she
fell into the water.
Gibson and Mrs. Szabo were boating
on Lake Greenwood July 16. Mrs
Szabo fell overheard and sank and
Gibson dived after her. He came 10
the surface gasping after a long in
terval, but Mrs. Szabo's body remained
at the bottom of the lake. He claim
ed that she caught him and pulled him
down, and that when he broke from
her hold he was too exhausted to save
her.
When County Physician King OF
Hudson county, his assistant, DR.. Has
king, and Dr. Schultz prepared 10
make the autopsy of Mrs. Szabo's body,
they examined the outer surface close
ly first and found no traces of eXterr.alN
| injury such might have caused
uedln even lnulreclIy.
But when the dissection began. the
physicians discovered that the lungs
of Mrs Szabo were debated and fiat.
empty of water and air. This proved
at once that drowning had not been
the cause of death, and the physicians
proceeded to make a most careful ex-
animation of the throat and air pas
sages. They found that the thyRaid
cartilage of the larynax, known TO thsp
| layman as the Adams apple, had been
| displaced and forced into the trachea,
thereby shutting off all access of air
! to the trachea or windpipe. 100
1t is a simple thing for one person
| to effect strangulation by this means
in another. BY pressing the fist against.
| the chin, thereby forcing the head back
| and lowering the thyroid cartilage, and
! then extending the nst and second
| fingers of the hand into the throat,
suffocation will ensue in a few
moments and the person will become
unconscious.
/ Submersion in the water then would
result in death, as the person could
not recover consciousness, and death.
would be produced by continued fail
ure to breathe. 4
This form of strangulation will not
leave any mark on the throat IL care
| fully done, and as only a person who
had made somewhat of a study of mur-
der would be likely to attempt il, the
physicians are convinced the slayer OF
Mrs. Szabo was accustomed to taking
precautions such would tend to
throw around him all the technicalities
of the law.
The whole thing hinges, 1t is stated.
on Gih~o-'z desire % ret hoI' % an
estate of some $4,000 left by the wo-
man He is said to have drawn up
will at her request. Her desire to
leave her property to her sisters and
brothers, but Gibson altered the Will
SO as TO have himself appointed ex-
ecutor of the will. Mrs. Szabo being
unable to read English, Gibson read
the Will TO her. making ii appear that
he had followed her instructions. Mrs.
Sza bo's mother was dead at the time

MOSS BLUFF

Moss Bluff, Sept 12.-Farmers are
busy harvesting corn crops and pick
ing cotton. AS the little colOred chaps
creep up and down the rows, laughing
and singing the old time coon songs,
raking in the beautiful white bolls of
lint, our minds are taken back to the
picture in the old red-back geography,
showing them drawing their long pick
ing bags up and down the rows
Several Of the sportsmen were in the
big scrub deer hunting last week, but
on account Of the dry weather report
ed bad luck. But it is the opinion Of
some that some Of the sportsmen car
ried too much fine provisions for such
lazy boys as they, and remained in
camp too much enjoying the high life
of sportsmen.
The Moss Bluff school opened last
Monday with Miss Overstreet in charge.
On account of sickness some Of the
pupils are absent from school Miss
Overstreet is boarding with Mr.. Oliver
Fort.
Mr.. ]. P. Galloway and family Of
Ocala are spending few weeks at
their home near Moss Bluff. We are
all very glad TO have the sheriff with
Us and only wish ne was a permanent
resident in our locality.
We could get along with less rain
and fewer September gales. Considera-
BILE damage has been done to the cot
ton crop the last few days by the
winds.

MOURNING THE M|KADO
Ancient Ceremonies Came Out OF the
Nists of Antiquity to show Respect
to NippOn's Dead Emperor

Toxic, Sept. 13-Ancient traditions
and religious rites mingled with mod
ern diplomtic pageantry today when
the ceremonies attending the burial OF
the late Emperor Mutsuhito, who died
on July 3Oth, were inaugurated.
Funeral rites of the Shinto religion
unknown to any other country and so
old that their origin is lost in the
mists of antiquity, marked today's
ceremony and will continue for two
days more, or until the final interment
of the mikado in the ancient imperial
cemetery near Kioto Sunday.
These scenes present a strange con-
trast to the twentieth century spirit
manifested by Japan in all else save
in matters of religion.
Every power of consequence is rep
resented here. Secretary of State Knox,
Brigadier General J. j. Pershing, Rear
Admiral a. r. Reynolds. u S. Ambas-
sador O'Brien and Ransford Miller,
chief of the division of far eastern af-
fairs, represent the United States and
the various departments of the Amer
lean government.
There was no flying of crepe for
black means nothing to Japanese.
White is the symbol of sorrow
throughout the Nipponese country and
the public buildings were thus draped.
Inside a sacred chamber in the i'm
perial palace rested until today the
body of the dead, robed in a white
shroud and lying in white casket
nine feet long. This casket is enclos-
ed within another upon a bier around
which members Of the household have
watched night and day since the spark
of life was extinguished.
