The Hunterdon County fall term OF
Court opened at Pennington, Tuesday,
Sept. 10th inst
Among the cases listed for trial was
that of Sheriff David l.. Holcombe VS..
Henry nj. Voorhees,, editor OF the
Democrat Advertiser for libel.
The case, however, went over Tor
the term, because of the fact that Sher-
if Holcombe had personally selected
and drawn the Jurors, before whom the
case would have been tried
We wonder if Sheriff Holcombe and
his astute counsel really thought that
Editor Voorhees, was such an easy
mark,
II you really did think that Editor
Voorhees, would allow himself to be
tried before jury personally selected
by yourself, we opine that you have
probably realized, before this time, that
you have another guess, Sheriff
Editor Voorhees, will, no doubt, be
ready and willing to defend himsel
against any and all charges you ma,
make, Sheriff, whenever you bring TIL
case legally before the courts, Blu
don't Try to get him by the film flan
route, it won't work.

Great Saving Of Life Shown by
Antitoxin Treatment in Diph-
liberia.

According TO State Health Commits
sioner Dixon. thousands of children's
lives have been saved from death by
diptheria through change in the
size OF the dose of antitoxin for that
disease.
1.-The tabulation of facts taken from
the results of the 5000. unit dose, says
DIR. Dixon, (which has already shown
reduction in deaths from AZ per
cent. to less than per cent. indicates
that still greater saving Of life can be
obtained by the use of 5000-unit doses
instead Of 5000 unit doses. believe
| am warranted in substituting the
larger for the smaller dose"
The result of the trial of 5000 units
has been to reduce the death rate to Il
little over 4 per cent. reduction OF
over one. half in the death rate.

1.-THE Doll Stories. i"

1.-THE Dollie Stories," written by
Farmer Smith, of Cedar Grove and
Montclair, and illustrated attractively
by William b. pell, is II perfectly
fascinating book for both boys and
girls. Ii tells about every child's
dear old pals, the cat, the dog, the
goat, the rabbit aud the monkey, and
every kind of doll ever heard of. But,
bless you, how different and up to-
date they all are, with their air.ships
and autosl There are French dolls,
German dolls, English and Swiss
ones, doll policeman, ilremen and sol.
diers, and the wonderful things they
all do will interest anybody. Even
the grouchiest old codger cannot
keep from smiling at the doingf
which take place in Farmer Smiths
"roytown, where all the Dollies
live, and the "grown.ups" will like
these stories Just as we'll as the kid
dies do.
There is one lovely story on each
page, set IN broad, pictured border,
so yon can pick the book up any
place and not need TO "please turn
over" to get TO the end of that story.
Farmer Smith, all through New
Jersey, is said to be "the biggest boy
in the State" despite the fact the be
is more than six feet tall and weighs
two hundred and fifty pounds. He
Is always called "The Children't
Friend" because he loves the little
ones so, and they just adore him
His name is not, Of course, Farmer
Smith, but that title has come L
him, because he has made world
famous the little New Jersey hamle
Of CedOr Grove, where he lives, ant
whence he sends out his funny news
paper stories concerning the almos
human antics and activities of tn
domestic farmyard animals, as chron
lcled by him. 1t is said that he tell
all of his stories first TO his own TIM

Why Beef Is High.

Marbus Baltauser, government live
stock inspector at Duluth. Mimi,
says: zone OF the causes of high
priced beef is the slaughter of young
calves, something like 5000, 900 being
killed every spring, Weighing about 10
pounds each. II allowed TO grow
another year they would average
around 500 pounds, equivalent to an
additional 44O, 900, 600 pounds of beef.
If we had law similar to that of Ar
gentina, which prohibits the killing OF
female bovine under years of age,
porterhouse steak would cease TO be a
luxury" This sounds somewhat rea.
sonable. All this talk about the
cheaper cuts being "as good as the
choicest when properly cooked,
doesn't appeal to most people.

At meeting Of the Executive Com
mittee OF the Lambertville Business
League, held on Monday evening last,
the Public Improvement Committee
was directed to call public meeting
at such time and place as in their

the proposed location of a new High

AT the meeting of Council held
Monday evening, 9th inst, there was
introduced by Councilman Banchoff, OF
the First Ward, and passed by a ma
jority vote OF the council, resolution,
that in the future, the city should ask
for bids for the furnishing of stone for
street work
The adoption OF this resolution
would seem to be in line with down TO
date municiple business methods and
strictly in the interest of taxpayers.
Strange to relate, however, Council
men Messrs. Charles Holcombe, Chas.
Crimson and Hervey Holcombe bitter
ly opposed the adoption OF the afore-
said resolution. The reason these
three Councilmen had for opposing
such meritorious resolution did not
appear. 1t is up to these Councilmen
to rise up and explain the seeming in
defensible position taken by them. II
they do not do so, citizens, generally,
will feel that the opposition OF Messrs.
Holcombe, Crimson and Holcombe
was the woodpile in which was hidden
that gentleman of unsavory reputation,
Qhe Ethiopian, Yin other words it
looks as il there might be a favored
one OF whom Messrs Holcombe, Gin
son and Holcombe would purchase
stone for the use of the city without
competitive bidding, regardless OF the
interests OF tax payers
