LAST COURT Term
FOR PROSECUTOR

The December term of Court which
opens On Tuesday next will probably
be the last term which Prosecutor ].
Hampton Ftihian will serve in his
official capacity. Mr.. Fithian will
yield the Prosecutors Office without
the slightest regret For fifteen years
Mr.. Fithian has been Prosecutor of
the Pleas of Cumberland County
When he accepted the position as a
young man and as very young law
yer, Cumberland was county of the
third class, and the Prosecutors SAL
airy was $1,000. Later the salary be-
came $500 as Cumberland entered the
ing the last five year term, the salary
has been $4,000 by an act of the legis
lature.
). Hampton Fithian has been singu-
larly successful as Prosecutor. He
has fitted well the position. In his
hands the enforcement Of law. and
order in the county has been certain
and vigorous, but never attended with
sensationalism. Most important cases
have been worked out by Prosecutor
Fithian. Three murderers have been
executed during his term of service,
and here in his last term, he has a
most disagreeable murder case to pre-
sent to the attention of the court.
AS Prosecutor Mr.. Fithian has bat
tied with the most skilled of the mem
bers of the bar, but never has the
interests of the people suffered. In
all of the fifteen years of his official
life, Prosecutor Fithian has never
missed a term of court, and not once
has he felt impelled to call in counsel
to assist the state.
]. Hampton Fithian will leave the
Prosecutor of the Pleas office with the
commendation of the public and he
may have the satisfaction of knowing
that many will regret that his impor-
tant service has ended.

The Commissioners reports were
presented, read and ordered filed. The
Commissioner of Public Works report
was devoted wholly TO the sewer stu
alton and will be printed tomorrow in
these columns.
The Commissioner of Streets and
Highways reported quite a good deal
of work done during the past two
weeks, stone cutters being laid on
Orchard street, some changes being
made in property approaches on South
Pearl street, and culverts had been
freed from leaves and dirt. Following
complaint of E. M. Fithian, the Com
missioner reported he was doing some
work on the narrow roadway known
as Franklin, Drive.
City Engineer Sharp in his report
said that he had been doing consid-
cradle work lately upon the city as
sessment map. He had taken samples
of the map work to the State Board
of Taxation for approval, and with
some slight changes the State Board
will approve the map when complete.
Overseer of the Poor Charles ID.
Carney reported one case where medi-
cal relief had been furnished; one
commitment to the Aims House; one
successful prosecution for wife de-
sertion.
Mr.. w. T. Laning presented a reso-

resolution was adopted.

Oscar Tomlinson, crazy man, es-
capped from the Hospital for the In
sane last night and wandered into
town. He was taken up by John Ry-
an, the Broad st. bridge tender, who
locked him in his office and notified
city hall. Officer Betchner went down
to the place and kept him there until
superintendent Elwell, who was tele-
phoned to, arrived and took him away.
The man had no clothes on but his
underclQthing, no shoes or hat. He
had couple of blankets wrapped
around him and looked like a fright.
He told officer Betchner that he met
man along by the Broad street ceme-
terry and said Good evening" to him
and the man said Yes and ran away
from him as fast as he could.
1t is not to be wondered at that the
man fled. The uncanny appearance of
the ghost-like spectre in such an un-
canny place would be sufficient ex-
cuse for stranger to flee, no doubt.

VIM. HUGHES
HOME AGAIN
Cannot Remember His Ex-
perience.
He WAS ATTACKED.
Apparently Knocked Out and Got
Away from His Home
800 Miles.

Commissioner of Public Safety Geo.
H. Hughes reached Bridgeton last
night accompanied by his son William
Hughes who has had strange exper-
ience in Indiana. While quite weak,
young Mr.. Hughes is feeling fairly
good and will recover.
The Commissioner learned that Will
liam went out in Belloit, Wisconsin,
where he was employed, going to the
other end of the town. After he had
made his call William started to re-
turn home. In making the trip he
was obliged to cross big railroad
bridge. He remembers going upon the
bridge, and then his mind is blank.
This was on Tuesday.
Friday night the young man was
found by woman, good old Quaker
soul, unconscious upon a street in
Farmland, Indiana, 309 miles from
Belloit. The woman had the boy cared
for and he was taken to a hospital.
1t was some time before he recovered
consciousness. Then he complained
of hurts in his head and constantly
rubbed the back of his skull.
When Mr.. Hughes went out from
his boarding house he had in his pock-
cts SIS or $19. When found, he was
without a cent.
1t is thought he was given knock
out blow while crossing the bridge and
unconscious was thrown upon a pass
ing freight car, which carried him
away to the far distant place.
The Indiana physician says that
Hughes will recover with care.

President Mulford said that he
would appoint a committee to act with

urge Bridgeton as site for the pro-

There was some discussion relative
to the proposed burial plot for the in

President Mulford in closing council
session said that he was just now
completing five years of work as a
Councilman, and about one and a half
years as President. With Mr.. Smalley
who was about to go out of council
| the President said he had very high
ly regarded his associations in coun-
ell, a body of men who were of the
best citizenship of Bridgeton. The
President said there had been keen
criticism of Councils action at times,
some of which had cut and cut deep,
But he felt that he had served the city
faithfully and he sincerely hoped the
results would justify the time and eff
fort of the Councilmen.
| President Mulford said he felt that
the city might we'll be proud of its
new water plant, and he felt sure that
in the future it would be considered a
valuable asset to the municipality.
To the Mayor and city officers, Pres
ident Mulford expressed appreciation
of loyalty and service. Particularly
did he appreciate the efforts of the
City Clerk, man entirely capable
always on the job, and who had been
personally helpful to all of the Coun-
cimen. In closing President Mulford
wished for each member of Council
and the city, a prosperous New Year

STRANGER THAN FICTION

It's strange that people live SO long,
remaining healthy, sound and strong,
when all around us, everywhere, the
germs and microbs fill the air. The
more we read about the germs, in
technical or easy terms, the stranger
does it seem that we have so Tar
lodged eternity. No wonder a poor
mortal squirms; all things are full of
deadly germs. The milk we drink, the
pies we eat, the shoes we wear upon
our feet, are haunts of vicious things
which strive to make us cease to be
alive. And yet we live on just the
same, ignore the germs, and play our
game. Well, that's just it; we do not
stew or fret DER things we cannot
view. If germs were big as hens or
hawks, and flew around our heads in
flocks, we'd just throw up our hands
and cry: Its no use-it's time to
die!" The evils that we cannot see
don't cut much ice with you and me.
A bulldog by the garden hedge, with
seven kinds of teeth on edge, will
hand to- me bigger scale than all the
microbes in the air. So let us live and
have our fun, and WOO and wed and
blow our mon, and not acknowledge
coward fright of anything that's out
of sight

NEW FEATURES
FOR THE PARK

Morningside Park, that beautiful
entrance upon the greater city pleas
ure ground, is one of the prettiest
and most attractive bis of properly pos
sessed by any community. The devel-
opment OF MOrningside Park has been
remarkable inasmuch as so much has
been accomplished for so slight ex-
pense.
The development of Morningside
Park has proceeded upon definite
plans carefully thought out, and in all
that has been done, there has been no
result that has not been in keeping
with the varied features that have
been worked ou.
In addition to the we'll laid out
gravelled walks, the terraces, the vine
covered walls, the convenient stone
and naturl steps and stairways, the
beautiful shrubbery and flowers, there
is reserved for Morningside Park one
1eatur that cannot be found probably,
elsewhere in the world. That is the
splendidly preserved spike machines,
which still stands in the very spot it
was operated for years and years in
at that time Bridgetons most impor-
tant and busiest industry.
Not far from this feature will, in
a few days, appear another novelty
that will be worth while, complete
sun dial presented the City Park Com
mission by former Mayor George
Hampton and Reed Elmer. The dial
is now being set up, based upon a
huge Cedar post, and about it in conf
cal shape, will be massed native stone
making an especially attractive and
appropriate base for the dial.
Another feature is being planned
ior Morningside Park which will be
greatly appreciated by the public. In
lne spring it is proposed to place
considerable sized concrete basin on
that part of the property where re-
Gently stood the old oil house. This
basin will provide for the culture OF
