A Suicide at WOodstown

DR.. E. P. McGeorge, a prominent
physician of Woodstown shot and killed
himself at his home Oh East Avenue,
Tuesday evening,
The cause is thought to be the condi-
ton of his health as he had teen suffer-
ing from acute indigestion. His wife
and daughter were out OF the house at
she time and the office windows were
open, SO that the report OF the revolver
shot was heard by neighbors who found
him in a pool Of blood. He sat i'll the
Office chair and placed the revolver to his
mouth. Death was instantaneous. I'm
happy home life and approaching finan-
cial embarrasments are presumed to be
some of the causes for the rash act.

The second game was lost to the team

accompanied by about fifty fans who
came up the river on an excursion.
The game was closely contested. AL

| the ball out of the lot. Odessa was mar

fourth and duplicated Smiths stunt by
driving out home run with one on base
and tying the score. 1t remained thus
until the seventh inning and then Odessa
pulled the winning run across the plate.
In the last half of the seventh Albaugh
and P. Chandler struck out; but III.

An explanation of the manner in
which a soft steel disk revolving at
high velocity cuts hard steel has
recently been sought with the aid
of microscopic inspection. The re-
suit corroborates the view hitherto
held that the material acted upon is
heated at the place of contact to
the fusing point and then brushed
away. The high temperature ap-
pears to be confined narrowly to the
point of contact, so that thin cash
is cut. The temperature of the re-
volving disk does not rise so high
because of the large surface area of
the disk. The part of the disk in
contact is continually changing,
while the frictional energy is con-
centrated on a very small area Of

The Farmers Need,

The farmer recognizes the needs of
better roads and realizes how much
such roads would contribute to their
comfort and prosperity. Good roads
save dollars and cents to the farmer.
Bad roads make farming Improbable
and undesirable. Bad roads increase
the solitude Of country life and limit
the opportunities Of the farmer Good
roads bring him into closer touch with
the center Of progress. Good roads en-
hapce the value Of farm land. beautify
the country and advance the farmer in
his social. religious and educational de
velopment. Good roads are the ave-
nues Of trade which lessen the trans
portatiOn of marketable products. Good
roads are the cords that bind the city
and the country together in thrift. in
dustry and intelligence. Good roads
are the most potent factor to make the
American farmer better. greater and
happier. Roads.

ingenious Schemes by Which They
Mark the Passing Hours.


A Grenoble clockmaker, Antony
Jacques, is responsible for the in
genious clock which he has named
"Lcs Heures Bacchiques' C'The
Hours Of BacchuS'). One Of the
two drunken individuals is drown
ing in a glass of colored water simu-
lating wine, while his equally help
less companion is barely able to hold
out to him, by way OF stupid drunk
en- greeting, the bottle which they
have emptied between them. In
the body of this figure is secreted a
magnet, which is attracted by the
steel hand of the drowning disciple
of Bacchus.
The two figures remain station
ary, but the wineglass, with the
hours painted in black on it, re-
wolves so that while the floating fig
ure remains suspended in the water,
but motionlcSs, the hours and quar-
tcrs are marked oil by the revolu-
ton Of the glass, which is made to
turn on a circular place actuatcd
bv the mechanism Secrctcd in the
base OF this strange but attractive
clock.
The School clock, by NJ. a. Poi
tel, constitutes a particularly at
tractive object for the shop window.
1t is made to represent the old type
of schoolmaster, who, with his stick
in hand, used equally for teach
ing and chastisement, is instructing
an urchin in what appears to be a
sum in arithmetic, but the figures
really represent the hours, to which
the teacher automatically points as
the movement impels his arm to
indicate the passage of time.
ola Mappenmonde" ("The Map
Of the World") is another ingenious
mechanical device, the invention OF
modern French clockmaKer OF
Bethune. The movement is in the
interior of the globe and causes it
to revolve and so mark off the hours
on the equatorial band by means OF
locomotive, which, by the way,
has a separate mechanism of its
own, whereby, if the globe is made
stationary, it may make a circuit
on its own rails of the equator in
twelve hours.
If the clock is used for show pur-
poses the stationary locomotive
with revolving globe is possibly the
best method to employ, as the loco
motive may then be kept always in
view of the public. But as an in
genious and useful clock for private
use the circuit made by the loco
motive is more interesting.-From
