Aquatic Notes.

The stormy weather of last week inter-
fered with the pleasure of boating on the
upper creek.
Marlton fisherman had good luck on the
opening day of the pike season. A black
bass weighing about FIVE pounds was
caught and put back into the water again.
Samuel j. Taylor may have made true
statement as to his luck ON Tuesday when
he said he caught 81 pike. Although
Sam enjoys a reputation for truthfulness
there may have been room for a stretch OF
the imagination in this story.
Sunday was a fine day and boats on the
upper creek were in demand. Those who
sought pleasure in batteaus found it hard
work pulling against the strong current
that was created by recent rains. Along
the banks Of the creek there were many
fishermen, most of whom had poor luck
A resident of Pine street was probably
high man, his string consisting of clever
pike
The trolley cars which came to Noun
Holly early on Tuesday morning brough
quite number of fishermen who mad,
for the favorite places located in thu
southern part of the county. The,
caught quite number of pike at Budd'
cranberry bog, Fishers dam and othe
places in the pines. but only those o
ordinary size were captured. One fellow
was arrested by Game Warden Morton 70
having a pike In his possession tina
measured only eleven inches.
Seven boats containing fourteen peopl
were at Schrayshuen's cove one day las
week all at one time in quest of gam
fish. There was no appreciation anon
the anglers of the new law which pre-
vents the retaining of bass caught on tn
opening day Of the pike season. As thes
species are caught with the same bait,
inflicted unnecessary punishment to til
bass which had to be put back int
the water again, and lacerated the feeling
of fishermen who must wait until Jun
18th for the opening day of the bai
season.

these utterances by members of an obscure
board are simply farcical. They excite
only derision. But the vice-president ex-

ABLE arguments were made in behalf of
the members OF the Board of Freeholders
indicted for unlawfuHy obtaining money
from the county, and no fault could be
found with the zeal, at least, of those who
appeared for the defendants. The latter
showed wisdom In following the advice of
counsel and entering plea of not desir-
Ing to contend or to have the matter go
before a jury. By that action they we're
relieved of the anxiety and cost of trial
with the possibility of conviction, and
they got the matter argued just the same,
for the lawyers who pleaded in their be-
half detailed all the circumstances and
commented on all the evidence likely to
have been presented, so that the cases
were In fact tried before the court. Each
of the lawyers denied that their clients
had done anything wrong Intentionally
but admitted that every one of them was.
to q certain extent, devoid of business
principles, unable to keep books, could
not add correctly the bills they presented,
In a nutshell acknowledged that these
men were totally unfit to hold a public
office. 1t was rather a humiliating
spectacle to have lawyers paid or not paid
for defending these men get up and open
ly tell how ignorant their clients were.
Much stress was laid on the point that the
amounts In question were quite trivial,
yet the former Judge who made such an
eloquent plea had. in his term on che
bench, sentenced many a man5whose Of

whom he pleaded for mercy. There was
much said In the arguments that might
have been omitted. The attempt to show
that there was too much spite in these in
dictments, that there was desire to ''get
the scalps" Of certain people, and all that
sort of talk was absolutely uucalled for
under the circumstances and was only in
tended to draw attention from the real
issue.

to purchase that between Moorestown and

sticks to the old system, and travellers Ia
that state are held up and compelled to
pay toll before proceeding on their jour

come into this state and go over roads that
are pleasure to ride on, and, under a
