anniversary of the birth of that great
and glorious man, "Fhe Father of Our
Country" finds us assembled here in
anticipation Of pleasant evening
May you be not disappointed, with best
wishes we greet you, it would seem,
however, that a speaker who can COM

eled in a score of countries, both new
and strange, both civilized and uncivil-
lied, within the period Of the last ten
years, but whose knowledge OF Africa,
that land OF jungles. is most valuable
and interesting, recognized and sought

W. c. 7. U. Notes.

$1,000 bills were presented last year
in Congress. Only those were con.
sidered that had powerful backing
Are you backing, by writing to Con-
gressmen, the Kenyon-Sheppard Bill?
This is true American bill and is in
favor of government "of the people,
by the people, for the people," in
stead of permitting a corporation to
render the laws of any state null and
void.
The Esch Bill will help workers in
match factories and should be passed.
The soldiers are indignant at the
canteen people, and declare that the
soldier is no more of drinker than
other men. He is just as clean man
too.
In canteen days, one post used to
send home to families $500 per month.
Since then it sends $4,000. One sol.
dier says: IF you buy house next
| door to saloon and tell the saloon
keeper to give your son unlimited
credit, as the canteen does, do moi
complain if he should not be tenn,
perance man"
Amendments to the Constitution of
New Jersey, including the initiative,
referendum and woman's suffrage,
have been presented. All these bills
bring government home to the people.
The bill limiting the work of wo-
men in factories, should pass. In
some factor les girls of sixteen work
twelve hours and on night 'shift"
at that.
Camden saloon keepers have been
fined from 500 to $500 each for break
ing the Sunday laws.
Appeals for Constitutional amend
ment granting votes for women made
before Woman Suffrage Committee of
the U. S. Senate. Why should the
bill not pass? Taxation without
representation is tyranny. Women
are taxed. They form the majority in
the church and the minority in the
jail. The country loses much in de-
priving its best citizens of their votes
in the government.
1t is the votes of the women of Col
orado that keep Judge Lindsey, "the
kids Judge" on the bench. The
powerful corporations and all the
powers of evil assail him, the women
appreciate his wonderful work for
children, and support him at the
polls.
A recent test among linotype oper-
ators developed the fact that those

we may expect voters to make better
use of the ballot. Vice and GRIM

Mans Body Found in River.

While walking along the bank of the
Delaware Saturday afternoon on the
Pennsylvania shore, about one mile
above New Hope, Julius B. Cotton, OF
this city, discovered the body of a man
floating III the river near the shore.

ace, Pa, but no money. He was

LAMBERTvlLLE DEFEATED BY CATH
0LlC CLUB.

For real downright excitement, the
contest at Parochial hall, on Chestnut
avenue, Trenton, Wednesday even
ing, proved to be blue ribbon win
ner, when Lambertville was defeated
by the Catholic Club.
The closeness of the score indicates
the exciting nature OF the struggle
aud the big crowd fairly went wild
in the closing minutes when the Hun
terdon county boys began to close il
on their Trenton rivals With three
minutes to go the Catholic club team
had lead of six points, 1913, when
Clarke dropped in two beauties for
Lambertville from the centre OF the
conrt, and Klein tossed in a foul,
bringing the teams but one point
apart.
The boys struggled like demons in
the closing minute, but the one point
advantage was Just large enough to
give the Catholic club boys the vic
tory.
A crowd that packed the hall to its
capacity witnessed the game and it is
doubtful if any Eastern league battle
ever waged in Trenton this season
has kept the fans more excited than
the contest of Wed, evening, From the
time that Referee Carmody tossed the
ball in the air calling the teams to
arms, there was not II dull moment.
Pandemoninm reIgned supreme
throughout the entire forty minutes,
when it seemed that Lamberville was
to cop the battle.
The Catholic club team PLAYED
splendidly in the first half aud at half
time was leading 1T. Iambertvlle
made garrison finish that gave the
Catholic club followers heartache,
however.
Radice, O'Hara, Craig, Nolan, Muir
ply and Delate all did their SHIRE to
bring honor and glory to the Catholic
club team while Clarke, Klein, Baz-
ner, Craft and Wagg did everything
in their power to keep the Lambert
vile slate clean Radice was particn.
larly in the limelight for Trenton,
while Clarke's work was the best for
Lambertville.
The score:

private philanthropy shall become a
charge upon the State, Charles L.
Inslee, chairman of the farm commit

recently purchased farm near
Stockton, with various kinds of agri-
cultural implements and machinery.
The object of the corporation is to
care for young boys who have been
neglected or delinquent, and when
such youth is arrested for a trivial
ofIense, instead of having him placed
in the custody OF probation officer,
application is made to the court for
| the custody of the offender. The
boys, when taken from the courts,
are placed upon the farm and given a
thorough training in agricultural
life. Thus far Commissioners Wight

HOW OLD PEOPLE
May Prolong Their Lives

AT an advanced age waste is more
rapid than repair. The organs act
more slowly and less effectually than
in youth. The circulation is poor. the
blood thin and watery. the appetite
poor and digestion weak.
We want to say to every aged per-
son in this vicinity that Vinol, our de-
licious cod liver and iron tonic with
out OILY will prolong life. 1t creates
an appetite, aids digestion and makes
good blood. In this natural manner
Vinol retards waste and replaces
weakness with strength, giving new
life to the worn system.
II people In this vicinity only real
lied how vinol invigorates old people
we would not be able to supply the
demand.
Try bottle of Vinol with the I'M
Outstanding that your money will be
returned II It does not help you.
