George SPOTS, who left home with
Isaac Roberts over month ago, has re-
turned home. The boy says Roberts en-
ticed him away by promises Of money and
employment In New York City. When
near Hoboken the two quarreled and he
struck out for home, walking thirty-fve
miles, where he secured employment and
saved enough money to pay his car fare
home. Mrs. Roberts, who is willing tt
forgive her husband for deserving her Il
he will return, has moved all her belong
ings to her parents home at Delanco

and while here robbed the blacksmith

Tomorrow bids fair to be big day IL

the same roof, If not In the same ring
Two Boards of Freeholders will hold &
meeting. One has already been organic
ed and has been doing business since the
first of the year. The other did not or
ganize on the first of January but will dc
so tomorrow and then will start In tc
make up lost time.
After the Supreme Court had decided
that the Boards of Freeholders chosen in
other counties were not in legal possession,
there was a sudden idea that Burlington
county's interests were In jeopardy and
something must be done to make all acts
and parts of acts of the Board of Free.
holders good and strong in the eyes of the
law. Who should take initiative steps
was the next question. The voters of the
county had, In 1911, cast 1911 ballots on
the subject of whether 1t was desirable to
have a small Board of Freeholders. OF
this number 152 were rejected because OF
sumo iMPCAACObAOH3 Jul VI bAO ualdnCe
there was majority of 1895 in favor OF
doing awaywith the old organization. The
will of the people was apparent and in
1912 five gentlemen were selected to dc
business for the county.
When the court decided that the law
was not effective one would naturally sup.
pose that the people who had cast their
ballots In favor of a change would be
those who would want to straighten mat.
tiers out. But such was not the case. The
demand to GUST the new board and &c
back to the old system came from those
who had been sent to the rear by the tax
payers. There was a call for meeting, a
consultation with lawyers, and a petition
signed by IA of the 80 township represent
atives was sent to the clerk of the old
board, who is also acting for the new or
ganization, to cali a meeting to let the
"outs" get in.
The situation was too complex for Mr..
Hawkins to settle and he took legal advice
and was told that he was not compelled to
issue the notice. A report that he was
subject to fine of 500 If he did not
accede to the request had somewhat
threatening appearance, but he concluded
to follow the advice of his counsel. The
call had to be made by some one, so the
former director, Harry E. Dubell, issued
1t and the ball will open at 10 O'Clock to-
morrow. What the outcome will be re-
mains to be seen.

Cases of Desertion.

William A. Slaughter, special master In
chancery, has reported to Chancellor
Walker In favor of divorce for John
0. Vautier, of Roebling, from his wife,
Grace Vautier, now residing with hel
mother In Philadelphia. The evidence
shows that the couple were married in
Wilmington, Del, on October 20, 1907,
and that the wife prefers living with hel
mother In Philadelphia to residing with
her husband. He tried to induce her tc
go to Roebling, where he has position
as wire drawer, but she has refused
hence the ground for divorce which hsl
been recommended. The maiden name Of
the wife was Grace Francis. Mr.. Elaugh
ter also reported to Chancellor Walker In
favor of divorce for Elizabeth A. Eckarc
from her husband, William Eckard. oil
Pemberton, on the ground of desertion.
The evidence shows that the wife'i
maiden name was Elizabeth Sweet. They
were married in April 1902, in Pemberton
and the husband used to go on big sprees
after purloining articles from the house
including the clothing of his wife, and
pawning them. In 1907 he left her anc
has not returned to her support. Hence
the suit for divorce.

duced the amount to $4,000. James M.

To produce huckleberries as large as
pigeon eggs is the aim of an interesting
horticultural experiment that Miss Eliza.
beth White is conducting on some of the
extensive properties owned by her father
Joseph J. White, of New Lisbon. Little
or nothing has been done to improve this
delicious berry, several varieties of which
grow wild In the Jersey pine swamps,
while others flourish on the rocky hill
sides OF North Jersey and Eastern Pennsyl-
vania. So important does the National
Bureau of Plant Industry consider the
experimental work Of Miss White that
Professor Coville has been assigned to
cooperate with her and keep the depart
ment In touch with results. The traveller
in the pines will occasionally ind a
huckleberry bush on which the fruit is
three or four times the size of the average
berry. Miss White conceived the idea of
collecting a great number of these finest
specimens, bringing them under a high
state of cultivation and crossing the best
varieties, from the sprouts and seedlings
Of which II is hoped to greatly increase
the size and quality of the huckleberry.
For two years she has been quietly COL
lecting the specimens for her trial beds,
paying a premium to the berry pickers
for the ''big berry" plants they find while
working In the swamps.

New Egypt.
While the wind was blowing a terrific
gale about 1890 Wednesday morning,
the shrill sound of the fire alarm was
heard from one end of the town to the
other. 1t was soon learned that the fire
was at Wardell Harker's. The fire was
first discovered in a small stalk stack near
the barn and though every effort was put
forth to stop the blaze it continued to
grow and In almost an instant the barn
had caught and though the firemen arrived
In very few minutes they were unable
to stop such blaze which soon caught to
the house and In almost the twinkling of
an eye the blaze was bursting from every
window. Most of the goods on the first
floor were saved but many on the second
floor, which included most Of the wearing
apparel of the family, were destroyed.
1t is thought the fire started from spark
from the steam saw mill which stands
nearly quarter of a mile away. The
loss is several thousand dollars, partly
covered by insurance.
An open switch near the depot caused
the late west bound train Thursday night
at New Egypt, to run into several passen
ger cars, which were standing on the
siding. The engine went nearly half way
through one of the coaches aud forced tn,
others clear through the repair shops O
the company. The engine was relieved
of its smokestack and was put out o
commission. The conductor, Gordon
Guie, and the mail clerk, G. ]. Hartman
were the only ones injured. They wer
bruised quite badly. A crew from
IHightstown arrived about eleven o'clocl
