FIRE DOES HEAVY
 DAMAGE TO BARN

A costly fire visited the Park Gar dens. located near Beardsley Park, yesterday afternoon. The timely ar rival of Chemical Engine Mo-, 1 did
 much toward preventing the fire from being very serious one. As it was, it is estimated that about 5000 damage, has been done. The blaze started in the hayloft of the barn. Ut was discovered by a little daughter of the superintendent of the farm. Its origin Is a mystery. The little girl went to the barn to get a piece of ice from the milk chest; hear ing the cracking noise in the hayIoft, she discovered the blaze and immed- lately notified her father, Joseph Fer rucio. The superintendent and farm hands tedephoned for fire apparatus and then devoted their attention to getting the live stock out of the barn. When the firemen arrived they assist ed in removing tools, boxes crates and other articles from the barn.
 The cows were out to pasture and this left little live stock fin the barn so that none of it was lost. The barn was destroyed; 25 tons of hay was lost, oats valued at $500 were burned up or water soaked; flower pots and other articles were damaged. The barn was built two years ago at a. cost of. $1,900. It was insured for $1.- 200.
 The fire will not interfere with the business of the farm, except indirect 1y. The greenhouses were not dam aged as they were a considerable dis tance from the fire. Ea Lewis. Bill is manager of the Park Gardens and said that he was without a single Idea as to the origin of the fxN.

POLI'S

Commencing today the Poli Players will offer J. Hartley Manners pleas ing comedy '@The House Next Door. The story of the play is based on the baronet. Sir John Cottswold. of ancient lineage, against the successful Jew ish merchant, Sir Isaac Jacobson, whose enterprise and philanthropy has just been recognized by the lib- eral government withwa peerage The Englishman, with unusual pride, des- pises the son of the chairmaker, who had once earned a living in drudgery on the estate of the former Sir Jolln Sir Isaac Jacobson, with rare i'm diligence, tolerares the insults of the bsronet. The property of the latter of the one time peasant. By reason of the fact that the baronet's father had done the elder Jacobson, kind- ness. Sir Isaac has only gratitude in his heart for his unfortunate neigh bor.
 The children of Sir John and Sir Isaac become enamored against the wishes of both parents, the one of the Englishman because of family pride, the other, that of the Jew, because of a racial ambition. Although it is shown that the acts of Sir Isaac are those of generous friend and neigh Dor. Sir John persistently refused to recognize them as such and display ed a bitter animosity to all things Jewish. Even in spite of the informa- tion that Sir Isaac had stood between Cecil Cottswold, rising young sing CT. and actual want, the stern old bar onet, Cecil's parent, steadfastly main tains his irascibflity and declines to recognize any good in the object sof his hatred, who has since come into possession not only of the Cottswold pictures but the very house the fam fly occupied, all dissipated through Sir Johns reckIessness.
 The play, ends happily. Sir Johns llfFitability gone, his heart melted to- ward his -neighbor. and the curtain drops with the pathway of the young people toward happiness unobstruct- ed.

to themselves. Certain it is that there are many in town who admire Col Roosevelt but if they are in favor of the one man party they are not doing any shouting. It is also certain that if third ticket is placed in the field this election, that the candidate will receive many votes here. However there is no intimation at the present time that there will be any active campaign in behalf of the third party. One local official who holds his posi- tion by virtue of being Republican expects to see Governor Wilson elect ed in November and will help along the cause by casting his ballot for the Jersey executive. He states that he has always voted the Republican ticket but that this year he could not conscientiously vote for Taft, neither would he vote for the man with the colossal ambition who is endeavoring to split the old party.
