young men created disturbance In front
of the house and threw a bottle of beer
into a second story window. The court
imposed fine of $15 each.
The next case heard was the remon-
STRANGE against granting the application
for license made by Henry A. Lehman
to keep hotel at Fieldsboro. Eckard P.
Budd represented the remonstrants; Mar
tin Devlin and Ernest Watts for the APP
plicant.
The principal contention Of the remon-
strants was that the application did not
contain the names of six reputable free
holders Of the borough.
Henry A. Lehman, the applicant, was
called to the stand by the remonstrants.
He said he has occupied the hotel property
applied for during the past year, but that
his wife had been living elsewhere. He
bought the property on December 81,
1910, for s., 900, paying no money, but
giving first mortgage for So, 900 and
second mortgage for $4,000. He denied
that the first mortgage was given to Ru-
dolph V. Kuser, of the Trenton Brewing
Company. The records in the county
clerks Office were produced and it was
found that the mortgage referred to had
been given by Lehman to Kuser and had
been recorded on the same day that the
deed was placed on record.
Ex-senator Carter, of Fieldsboro, testi-
fed that there are between 400 and 500
residents in the borough; that it contains
only four stores; that there is one licensed
hotel there now and that another would
be unnecessary and superhuous; that no
license Is really necessary as the city of
Bordentown is only one mile distant and
go there to be accommodated,
The witness was asked about the signers
of the application and gave the residence
of each.
Lemuel Fisher, formerly justice of the
peace, testified that there is not enough
business In Fieldsboro to require two
hotels Of the signers to the application
he said Jacob Phifer and John McHugh
DO not bear good reputation. McHugh
has been convicted as a common drunkard
and for non support of his family. The
applied for is not in a sanitary
condition
A record of indictments from the Clerks |
office showed that Charles Sadler, one of |
the signers, was found guilty Of assault |
In the county court In 1908.
Theodore Carter, James Valentine and |
others testified that more than one hotel is
not necessary In Fieldsboro.
The application was refused.

CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE.
"Her Own Way" Clyde Fitch's most
successful comedy drama, will be present.
ed by the Orpheum Players at the Chest
nut Street Theatre, Philadelphia, week
commencing with the Monday matinee,
May 18th.
"Her Own Way is truly a unique
story, carrying with it splendid comedy,
yet with enough pathos to keep up the
interest in the pretty love story that runs
throughout. Its presentation by the Or
pheum Players should therefore prove an
event of more than passing note. Her
Own Way" is a story with a pointed
moral or law-sort of a sermon in drama
tic form, with the funny side turned up,
yet making US see the right from wrong
and at the same time entertaining us. It
is an impressive play, and should strongly
appeal to the fair sex, as it has to do with
tender sentiment that is only too we'll
remembered in Mr.. Fitch's splendid work
The plot deals with the efforts of Sam
Coast, wealthy mine owner, to win the
hand of Georgiana Carley. He offers her
everything that wealth could buy, but as
Georgiana is the right stuff, and is in
love with Dick Coleman, she fatty re-
| fuses to listen TO his Plead1ngs, ard even
threat that he will win her. Coast takes
advantage of Georgiana's brother Steven,
knowing of his weakness to speculate in
stock transactions. He tells Steven of
the Tip" whereby he can accumulate a
tremendous fortune. Steven takes money
belonging to Georgianna, which is the
sole maintenance of the whole family,
and puts it on margin. Coast, with his
i CT TOxUor of uaa1fH CoI1cec tbA RI AZ
to slump and all is lost. He then offers
to make good the loss provided Georgiana
will marry him. This Georgiana fatty
refuses to do, but in the absolute poverty
it is rather hard to know where to turn
we are about ready to see Georgiana give
up all hope-when Dick Coleman returns
from his regiment and matters are set
Alright. This is very vague synopsis OF
the highly interesting plot, but from the
skeleton one can know the splendid pos
sibilities of the most gratifying play.

EDITOR News:
Just few words to express my appre-
citation of the services of our local fire
companies.
When l reached the scene of the recent
fire, 1t seemed to me that no power on
earth could save our building, but was
wrong. In the space of few minutes the
boys had moved all the goods which inter-
fered with their operations, had run line
of hose through our building with such
care that, although the stream was on,
nothing was wet, and had saved our
factory.
1t is entirely due to their efficient and
careful work that our loss amounts to
only about $25. and they deserve all the
praise that can beigiven them.

Special Attention

Seventeen head of horses and mares
that have been used in the trucking
business will be sold cheap, as they are
too heavy for my livery business; they
would make good horses for grocers,
butchers, bakers, milkmen, truckmen,
lcemen, farmers, or any kind of heavy
work; they range in age from 5 to 9
years old, weight from HOO to 400.
Attention is called to bay team, Tom
and Kate, 6 and years old, and work
like one horse; and team that weighs
230O, color black and roam, that would
make as good farm horses as money
could buy. These horses and mares
are sold for no fault only that I am
starting in the livery business, and
they are too chunky for light driving.
| also have two young mares that are
heavy in foal, and will give a written
guarantee with each horse and mare

OLD HENS ARE POOR LAYERS
Experiments at Maryland Station
Shows That Aged Birds Are
Maintained at Serious Loss.

At the Maryland station. in study
Of the egg production of sixty white
leghorn h:nS in three successive
years, the average number of eggs
per bird was 1913 the first year;
l491 the second year and 151.1 the
third year.
The estimated cost OF the mainte
nance OF the noca was $50 for each
year; the profit per hen was $2.07
the first year, $l.61 the second year
and so cents the third year. All of
the five hens which produced 200
eggs and over laid their first egg in
November. whereas of the fowls pro.
ducing 100 and under only 81 per
cent. laid their first egg in Novem.
Der; A per cent. laid their first
egg in January, and Is per cent. laid
their first egg in February.
One fowl made the best record in
the third year. , in the second year,
and the remainder during the first
year. The percentage Of shrinkage
proves conclusively that birds of this
age are being maintained 1T serious
financial loss.
