Gets Damages.

One of the most novel damage suits
ever before the court was heard before
Judge Howard Carrow, In Mount Holly,
on Wednesday. 1t was that of Isaac
Miller against the Delaware River Trans
portation Company.
The plaintiff is banana and fruit
huckster with a store at Burlington and a
business which extends over Camden and
Burlington counties. For several years
he had been in the habit of receiving his
shipments by the boats of the Delaware
River transportation Company.
On February 10 last, Mr.. Miller alleged,
he went to the wharf of that company in
Burlington to receive a consignment of
apples and bananas. shipped him on the
boat Springfield. The boat was delayed
because of ice In the river and it was
O'Clock In the evening when Mr.. Miller
went to the end of the wharf to look
after his fruit.
In the darkness he stepped into an
opening where plank had been removed
and fell through the wharf, striking across
the upper abdomen and being saved only
by the fact that his coat caught and held
him. X-ray pictures were introduced
showing that the lower left lung, where
he had received the injury, is now greatly
affected by tuberculosis.
1t was admitted by the plaintiff that for
a long time previous to the accident he
had been victim of the disease, but he
concluded that he had recovered from the
same and through his outdoor lie avoid.
ed the probability of its recurrence.
The Transportation Company denied
liability on the ground that the plaintiff
was not properly on the wharf, insisting
that he should have received his fruit al
the freight platform.
The plaintiff met this allegation by
proving that In the winter time 1t had
been his custom to receive fruit onto his
wagon directly from the boat to avoid the
danger of the fruit spelling from freezing
and that this was the purpose of his visit
to the end of the wharf on the evening Of
the accident.
After celebrating three hours the jury
gave verdict of 81, 900.

jury BEroRM was the subject that re-
ceived more attention than any other on
Tuesday, that being the day on which the
Legislature met In special session to con-
aider that and other questions. More than
one bill was introduced to reach some con-
clusion on the manner In which juries
shall be drawn but there did not seem to
be unanimity of feeling on the part of
the Democratic majority, and the Repub-
licsn minority does not appear to be call
ed upon to pull from the fire the chestnuts
of the other side. The bill introduced by
Senator Read, of Camden, is good enough
for the purpose In view and the Republi
cans will probably stick to that. 1t is
thought by many that there is need for
reform In the manner of drawing juries.
It has not been so considered In Burling-
ton county. There has been little reason
to criticise the character Of the jurors
summoned by the Sheriffs of this county
for several years past. But it must rain
on the just and unjust alike. Sheriff
Jordan. for the short time he has been In
Office, has given the public good juries,
yet he is an advocate of q change In the
way of selecting those bodies He thinks
there has been much harm done in the
past In other counties by the way in
which Sheriffs have selected jurors and
while the new system would affect him,
he is perfectly willing for the good of the
entire community to have change made.

UNDER the Nichols widows pension
law, which will go into operation on July
4, any widow who is the mother of child
or children under the age of is years, and
who is unable to support them and main
tain her home, may apply for assistance
to the Court of Common Pleas of the
county in which she resides. After max
ing satisfactory replies to certain interrog-
atories, the petition is referred to the New
Jersey State Board of Children's Guard
ians for further Investigation.
This Board is authorized TO ascertain
the true situation as to the widow, her
character and condition. On the present
alton of this report the court, If in its
Judgment the mother will be unable to
properly support and educate her children,
shall make an order directing that there
shall be paid to the mother monthly, SO
for one child under 10, $14 for two. and a
for each additional child. Thus mother
with five children under IS years of age
will be entitled to receive $26 monthly.
The pensions are to be paid by the
counties, and not by the state, as is gener-
ally believed. No fees or costs are allow
ed to the court for any proceedings taken
under the Nichols law, nor may counsel
fees be ordered or collected from any ap-
plicant for pension. A great RESPONSE
bility is placed on the Common Pleas
Court, which. If 1t finds that it has been
deceived. may revoke or modify any order
made, at any time, upon or without
notice, as to 1t may seem proper.

THE grand jury which made returns to
and sifted lot of testimony bearing upon
the cases brought before 1t. All men are
supposed to be innocent until proven
guilty, hence judgment must be suspend
ed until the accused have acknowledged
their guilt, been shown to be guilty or
have been acquitted by jury of their
fellow men. There is a disposition on
the part Of some to show that the present
alton to the grand jury of the matter re-
ferred to was merely matter Of spite, a
desire to get even. That will not do. It
matters not what motive prompted the
action, If the result was warranted, II
crooked work has been revealed, spite
work is just as good to do the deed as
anything else. 1t must not be forgotten
that at least one member of the small
Board of Freeholders has been the target
for abuse and SANDER and 1t was only
natural for him to strike back where the
blow would count. It matters not what
caused him to act, If the evidence to be
presented shows that the charges are well
grounded, If there has been crookedness
the taxpayers of the county have reason
to be thankful that one man had the
courage to bring the matter to the atten-
ton of the authorities. The accused will
be given a fair trial. The evidence on
which they were indicted is documentary
and IL is possible they may be able to
show that there has not been any intention
of doing wrong. 1t is to be hoped they
will succeed. But If reports are true the
whole has not been told. There may be
more to follow not only In the criminal
line, but there is possibility Of civil
suits to recover what has been outlawed
by the statute lof limitations In criminal
ways. Let there be a thorough sitting Of
all the facts. This county has too long
suffered from the stories that there was
graft and wrong doing in the conduct OF
public affairs. 1t was to try and better
things that the people voted to abolish
the large Board of Freeholders. 1t might
have been better If that body, thrown out
by the will of the people, had possessed
sufficient judgment to abide by the decis-
ion of the taxpayers; things might have
been different today.

Shaw Field Club was easy for Moores-
town, on Saturday. being defeated by the
score of 10 to 6.
The scores of the other teams In the
Delaware River League were: Ottawa,
Camden, 3; Riverside, 90. Morrisville, IA;
Palmyra, 10.
Florence has a second team that will
make the first team walk some II the lat
team played the Emerald club at Burling-
ton and won-by the score of to 8.
Charley Peacock's brother, younger
t han himself, plays on the second team OF
Florence. According to Charley the
youngster is the better player of the two,
and if Charley admits 1t, 1t must be so.
Morrisville is at the head of the Della
ware River League, having won two
games and lost one. Riverside, Florence,
Roebling and Palmyra are even-won one
| and lost one. Ottawa, of Camden, won
none, lost two.
Berner sat on the bench and watched
the game. He did not have any engage
ment for Saturday. The fact that he
signed contract with Mr.. Kropp to play
with Mount Holly has not interfered with
his being engaged by another team.
r. D. Wood and Roebling met on Satur.
day. This was good game, both teams
being on their mettle Wood got six
hits and Sweeney struck out eleven of his
opponents, but Roebling made their hits
at a,good time, Barry, pitcher, hitting q
nice single which scored two men. The
score was to 2 in favor of Roebling.
Delanco will be here next Saturday, and
II is hoped there will be game worth the
price of admission. We know 1t Is not
proper to make these remarks and when
the action of a player and his plays are
criticised there is a general cry among
those interested that we are knocking "
People who pay the price of admission
have the right to criticise. To make re-
marks about the home team is simply
awful in the eyes OF some, but to jeer and
deride the visitors seems to be just the
thing and there is no lack of this kind of
performance. THE News will give credit
when it is due and will do the other thing
when the occasion occurs.
Notwithstanding the weather was not
such as to induce to ones comfort In sit
ting in the open air to watch game OF
ball, several of the faithful attenders at
the ball grounds were on hand Saturday
afternoon to see what was to be done.
Altogether 1t was disappointment. The
team from Camden was sorry bunch OF
ball players and the Mount Holly boys
won the game in the first inning when two
runs were scored. Three more were added
In the next inning and so 1t went until the
seventh when the game ended with the
score standing nine for Mount Holly and
none for Camden.
There were few plays to call forth ap-
plause. Lawrie Gillian made fine one
handed catch which was properly ap-
plauded and one of the Camden boys
caught foul after a very long run. This
was accepted in silence. Twelve errors
by Camden shows how Mount Holly wop
The Camden pitcher was not so excellent
and the home team got six hits off of him.
Cain was in the box for Mount Holly and
Camden is credited with but two hits, but
almost any kind of pitcher could have
kept them down TO that score.

cesses, its pomp and pageantry, its human
arenic atrocities and barbaric revels, its
by sword and fire, and its
persecution of the early Christians as
here exemplifed in the actual burning of
Rome, the martyrs thrown to the savage
beasts. the human torches to light Nero's
garden, and the struggle and conquering
of the savage bull at the hands of the
giant Ursus. The many exciting scenes
of the book have been faithfully recorded
in the pictures of 'Quo Vadis," which
are recorded on eight reels, each one of
which is more than 1000 feet in length,
making an entertainment that runs for
two hours and half, every minute of

SPEAKING of the small Boards of Free
holders the Trenton Times says: twelve
Of the twenty-one counties-Hudson, Es-
sex, Passaic, Union, Bergen, Morris, Sus-
sex, Aliddlesex, Monmouth, Hunterdon.
Mercer and Burlington-haye voted in
favor of the smaller board plan. In but
one county, Somerset, has the proposition
been rejected. As will be seen, the favor
ing counties include eleven Of the most
populons In the state. Within them are
contained 2,0e0,65 of the 1851. 1877 In
habitants of the state. When 1t has been
demonstrated that four-fifths Of the peo
pie are willing to accept plan, 1t is evi
dent that the plan must be popular.

AFTER short. but very useful life,
Hon. Frank o. Briggs, former United
States Senator, died In Trenton, on Thurs
day. He was not an old man, being a
little over 81 years years of age. But he
had used up much energy in that time,
for he was always on the alert to attend
to the many enterprises In which he was
interested. He filed many important
offices, among them treasurer of the state
Of New Jersey and United States Sena-
tor. He was at the head of the State Re-
publican committee for long time and
he devoted his time and energies to the
positions that did not bring remuneration
the same as he did to those which paid.
He was beloved by all with whom he was
associated and his early removal from life
at time which held so much of promise
is regretted by all.

UGLY rumors have been afioat the past
week to the effect that all sorts Of methods
were being resorted to in order that the
so-called jury reform measure might be-
come law. One story is that there was
an attempt to bride some of the members
from Essex to either vote for the Wilson
bill or to stay away altogether and thus
break the force of the Nugent opposition.
1t Is common talk at Trenton that the
President. must be upheld at all events.
Governor Fielder has announced himself
''sick at heart" over the whole affair, the
sickness probably being the result of his
inability to carry out the programme he so
sincerely wished TO see adopted. Mayor
Wittpen has outgeneraled Fielder at every
point and has brought the situation to
such stage that the acting Governor has
been compelled to lower his dignity and
60 back to his seat In the Senate to, in the
words of the street, TRY and save his
face" There Is Just slight question
whether, when he took his seat as Presi-
dent of the Senate, he was not succeeded
as Governor by Speaker Taylor. At any
rate he has set precedent that is new to
this state. 1t is not the first time he has
done that, however.

Ar TIE meeting of the old Board of
Freeholders, Wednesday, there was re-
quest presented by two men who are
serving terms In the county Jail to be
granted their freedom. The matter was
referred to the committee on hberating
prisoners. 1t was remarked that 1t might
be well to confer with Judge Horner on
the subject and this was very sensible
suggestion. If there ia anything on which
q Judge Is criticised 1t is the sentences he
imposes upon men convicted of crime. 1t
cannot be said of Judge Horner that he Is
ever too severe as he Is well known to
temper mercy with justice" 1t Is not
very encouraging to him to have another
tribunal step In and undo what slight
punishment he has inflicted, merely be-
cause the convicted persons or their friends
think they ought to go free. There are
at least two cases Of that kind pending
now and there is no public demand for un-
doing what the court thought proper to
do. II sentences imposed by Judge Horn
er after due consideration and a perfect
knowledge of the facts are to be swept
aside merely on sympathy or through
favor It would seem more like putting q
premium on commission of crime rather
than lending restraining hand. Leave
the matter to the court.

G a 9 TO RIA
CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE
"THE COUNTRY Boy

The Orpheum Players next week will
produce "The Country Boy" the famous
play by Edgar Selwyn which has met
with enormous popularity the last two
seasons. This will positively be its first
production by any stock company, and
the play was only secured for the Chest
nut Street Theatre by the management of
an almost prohibitive royalty.
Additional interest will centre around
the performance by the Orpheum Players
because of the fact that Miss Caroline
Ives, the Orpheum's new leading woman,
will appear in her original role which she
created in the first production of this
play. The story of the play deals with
the effort of Tom Wilson, country boy,
to win fame and fortune in New York
City. He leaves his attractive country
home, his mother and his sweetheart to
go to New York, the big city. The second
act is the famous theatrical boarding
house scene where the young boy falls in
love with the beautiful chorus girl. In
the third act, he is disappointed in bust
ness and also in love, he is about to com
NIT suicide when Merkle, a newspaper
man and friend, saves his life.
For the title role of THE Country
Boy" the management has engaged Geo.
LeGuere, young actor of the Henry w.
Savage companies who will make his first
appearance as the juvenile man of the
Orpheum Players.
Owing to the well-known fact that Mr..
Ingersoll is entitled under his contract to
have one weeks vacation in every ten,
he has elected to remain out of the cast
of 1.-THE Country Boy" but will resume
his engagement with the company, Mon
day, May 26th.
