TUESDAY was a busy day at Trenton.
The Senate convened for the purpose of
considering the bills that had been pre-.
sented, notably one for jury reform.
There was any amount of debate and the
subject finally settled down to the adopt
ion or rejection of bill that had been
adopted by the House of Assembly, al
lowing the juries to be drawn by Sheriffs
and a commission appointed by the Chan
celor There was referendum attached to
this bill. not one which would apply to
any particular county, but one which
would require the vote of the entire state.
This bill had been finally approved by
President Wilson, notwithstanding he had,
in speeches on the subject, said the only
way to get jury reform was to take the
drawing of those bodies away from the
sheriffs. Acting Governor Fielder was in

Aquatic Notes.

William Roberts, of Moorestown, now
has canoe at Hacks boat house.
Lorenzo Moore purchased a new Morris
canoe In Philadelphia on Saturday.
Canoeists enjoyed moonlight padding
on the upper creek last week. The
scenery is growing more beautiful every
day.
A party of seventeen. composed of
nine men and eight women, came from
Philadelphia Sunday morning, and spent
the day up the creek.
Edward Hack is looking for the arrival
of three canoes which he has purchased.
He has also bought the canoe and outfit
belonging to George Atkins.
There is an opening day for all forms
of sport. and to-day Is the one which fish
ermen have been looking for, as it is now
lawful to catch pike. The season for
bass will enter on June 18th.
Maud, a fiat-bottom boat which has
been in use at Hacks boat house for over
twenty years, has been purchased by a
gentleman living at Rancocas, and the
future life of this craft will be spent on
the lower creek.
An automobile party of i've persons
living at Haddonfeld, came to Mount
Holly on Sunday and made their first
visit to the upper creek. They became
charmed with the beautiful scenery and
declared they would ship canoe here.
John G. Dudley, of Chester township,
member of the small Board of Free
holders. was numbered among the auto
lists who came to Mount Holly on Sunday
With his guest moonlight paddle uI
the creek was thoroughly enjoyed.
While making a trial cast last week
Claude B. Bullock played out 100 feet Of
| line, all that was on the reel. A three
ounce sinker was used. He won prize
| for casting last year at the Philadelphia
Sportsmen's Show, when he covered near
ly 40 feet.
Filled with pleasure from the antici
patton which they have experienced re
garding the opening day of the pike sea
son, which occurs to-day, many angler
with kettles of live bait and well-filleC
lunch boxes. started out this morning tt
try their luck on these game fish. From
the manner In which the streams hav,
been stocked, it is believed that pike ant
bass are plentiful. The greatest obstacle
to overcome, however, is to induce then
to take the bait. Some of the more en-
thusiastic fishermen, who had decided Oh
| going, rain or shine. and who were pre-
pared to meet either contingency, starte'
at four o'clock, and were.wending thei
way to various localities while peopl
were resting in slumber. Deciding t
work patiently until there was somethin,
doing and with desire to lead the cate
of the day, one party of three, in orde
to escape the jibes of friends for telling
what they might think were fish stories
took a camera along to get snapshot 0
their catch so as to be able to show evi
dence of the luck which they are hopin
will come their way.

tainer who convinces us that Dickens
characters are not dead yet, after all
We see them one by one in their queer
old clothes and with their queer old

Mr.. BATHS has the varied skill In i'm
personating that is seldom found, even
in the best of actors. He gives us the
speeches of Little NelPs grandfather
from The Old Curiosity Shop" quaver
and all. The next minute he has the
whole audience frightened at his take
off of clustering, ugly Rogue Ridsrhood,
from Our Mutual Friend" He assumes
the personality of dozen others. The
most novel part of the whole evenings
program is this: The change from one
character to another is made on the plat
form. Wigs, make-up, costumes and all
are dotted and donned to the interest and
amusement Of the whole audience.

RECENT developments in legal circles

bers of the bar of this state are now

BURLINGTON county, after being paraded
all over the country by sensational news
paper articles, as one of the worst places
imaginable, with "pine district" not fit
to be mentioned, has been shown not to
be so bad after all. DR.. Goddard, who
gave a very interesting talk In Mount
Holly week ago, said the pine district of
Burlington county did not differ much
from the regions of the Kittatinny noun
tains, the slums of Jersey City and New
ark, or the pine district of Cumberland
county. A gentleman intimately asso-
ciated with the work of uplifting and
caring for feebleminded people, told us
that even on the outskirts of Princeton
there was a condition almost as bad, al
though possibly not so extensive, as any
thing In Burlington county. But there
was great parading of supposed vice, a
minister rushed into print, and with his
picture attached to the article, told OF
things which he knew and had seen; but
when he was pinned down to the actual
truth the result was one indictment for
bigamy, enough possibly, to aid the cause
of justice, but entirely at variance with
the very vivid accounts printed as inter.
views with the photographed clergyman.
Vice is to be discovered all over the
country, and as DR.. Goddard truly said,
Burlington county happens to be getting
notoriety because of certain discovery
and Burlington county has the chance tC
have the honor of being the first locality
to improve the conditions described, moi
by sensational newspaper articles but by
real, practical, Christian work. Cumber
land county is already doing missionary
work by colonizlng those who come within
the notice of the authorities, and worl
will be done that way much more efectua
than by columns of newspaper items
1t will not be spread before the worlC
land give nctoriety and prominence tt
some who seem to seek that sort of thing
but there will be real, substantial results

PRESIDENT WILSON wishes the country
to understand, and understand thoroughly,
that talk of compromise on Schedule K
or any other schedule is sheer nonsense
Very quietly, but with much emphasis
he declared to reporter:
When you get chance Just say that
l am not the kind that considers COM
promises when once take my posi-
ton. Just note that down, that there
may be nothing more of that sort
transmitted to the press.
1t has long been known that occupancy
of the Chief Msgistracy of the nation
endows even the most changeable char
acter with undertaking stability. There
was time when Woodrow Wilson could
take position and not only consider COM
promise thereafter, but actually initiate
1t himself. He who would have knocked
Mr.. Bryan 'fnto a cooked hat" knocked
him instead into silk one. The learned
historian and political philosopher who
would have nothing to do with the refer
endum or the recall or other similar
heresies, In good time, by the skilled
alchemy of his mental processes, merged
them into a panacea for the ills of the
body polite. And even In New Jersey
1t is intimated, some kind of compromise
on the Jury reform question will be accept
able to the recent Governor.
A sensible man Stands pat'' on the
proposition that two and two make four;
mathematics Is an exact science. The
tariff. unfortunately 10 not exact. 1t is
the subject of controversy, and probably
will be SO long as there are govern
ments to support. Even were exact con-
illusions possible, fluctuations In the
factors might impair this accuracy over
night. Mr.. Underwood and the tariff
makers can only hope that they are
approximately correct; indeed, Mr.. Under.
wood himself is constantly harping on
the willingness of the majority to correct
any schedule II experience shows the
reduction to have been too radical, after
rigid examination of manufacturers books
Everybody else admits the possibility,
even the probability, of error. but not
Mr.. Wilson. He has taken a stand, and
with the immobility of titanosaurus he
will keep it. Woe to him who even sug-
gests amendment of any of the schedules
More woe to him who proves by cold
analysis the necessity for such amendment
A competitive tariff or an arbitrary tariff,
what difference does 1t maker The Pres
ident, for such are the elements that con-
stitute his being, is going to ''stand pat"
