l have managed the affairs of the Town
ship of Bordentown since 1902, in which
year the tax rate was $I.o5 on a valuation
of 1890 per cent. of value, to the present
year. The township has no local tax this
year. The township in 1902 had debt
of $4,000, no money to pay immediate
bills, very poor roads, and no system of
keeping them in repair. At that time the
township received no revenue whatever
from its highways. The present year the
township will receive from the corpora
ations using the highways the sum of
$1,000. l do not believe any township in
Burlington County can boast of or has
better roads than this township.

this township for ten (Io) years in such
creditable manner, feel 1 am fully con-

Smithville had Its excitement on Friday
night when Gorden Tucker, machinist,
was unsuccessful in his desire to kill his
son, Charles, and his son-in-law, Thomas
Dean, the latter being ticket agent
at that place. Because of his drinking
habit, Tucker. according to the hearing
before Justice Heilbron. has been making
things very unpleasant at his home. and
as Charles protected other members of
the family, 1t won him the hatred of his
father, who Dean says he does not even
recognize. Not being able to carry out
his threat to shoot his son, Tucker went
over to the railroad station and while
attempting to draw his revolver on Dean,
the man was jumped upon by his son,
Dean and Horace Lippincott. and

But for the quick action of Motor man John Moran of the Oak street line, little three-yearlold Jimmie KeIli- her would undoubtedly have been in stantly killed this morning
 Jimmie, who lives with his parents at Park avenue and Johnson street, has been confined in a local hospital and but recently was discharged with the injunction that he be kept in the open. He was permitted freedom Of the back yard.
 Shortly after 10 o'clock today he un- latched the gate and in a wild burst of enthusiasm oyer his escape ran di- rectly in front of an Oak street car running south on Park avenue He was directly in front of the car and Motornaan Moran saw he must inevit- ably be hit. No power could stop the car. Leaning forward in the yes tibule he pressed the fender far down and as the form was swept upon the projecting irons raised it away from further contact with the roadway. X The car stopped and together with Conductor A Wolfe Jimmie was re- leased Emergency calls were re- sponded to by Dr.. Pratt, who dressed superficial injuries and removed the boy to his home. Witnesses are unan- imouS in agreeing that MotoFman Nor ans presence of mind is all that kept the child from being ground to death beneath the wheels.
