toxican,s in City.

There were two trials last night be-
fore Mayor Arthur C. Whitaker for the
violation Of ordinance No. ITS prohib-
iting the sale of intoxicating liquors
in the City of Bridgeton without a
license.
The trials resulted in the conviction
of Charles Hamilton, who drives a
beer wagon, and Harry Moore, who is
notorious and who has long had the
reputation for selling liquor in limited
quantities.
The two cases attracted the usual
motley assembly of persons who are
always interested In liquor cases, the
majority of the spectators indicating
decided sympathy with the defend
ants.
Mayor Whitaker presided at the
trial with dignity and made it clearly
understood that there was a serious
ness attached to trials in the court
over which he presides.
The Mayor also made it understood
that witnesses must be responsible for
all they say when testifying under
oath. He gravely indicated to all Of
the witnesses sworn last night that he
! should require the exact truth from
| witnesses. There was no desire, hi
explained, upon the part of the Publ,
Safety Department to convict an in
nocent person of any offense, but he
stated in terms that il there was any
suspicion that a witness failed to b.
bound by his oath, the city woull
press charge of perjury against th'
| offender vigorously.
Bridgeton pioneer., 1913-01-16

Of the wings are but little less thar
the present stone Academy building
The structure now standing would be
but little changed and would be an
admirable centre-piece for the addi-
tions proposed.
The architects plan to construct the
wings of stone similar to the present
building, and the general scheme OF
improvement would admirably follow
present architecture.
The three wings while adjoining the
big Academy building, would not be
added directly on the present struc-
ture so that there would be light and
air upon all four sides of the present
building as well as upon the four sides
of each of the proposed extensions.
The east and west wings being
erected upon the sloping ground on
either side of the Academy building
would provide floors practically upon
the grade of the surface of the lot. On
the basement floor of the east wing is
planned to provide lockers and lunch
rooms for the boys, and a large class
room fronting ON Broad street. In the
west wing the basement floor would
provide the same convenience for
girls. In the centre would be provided
the furnace and ventilating rooms.
The basement of the north exten-
sion looks into the future where there
may be equipped a gymnasium and a
basket ball floor.
The first, or main floor provides for
four large class rooms in the east
wing and four in the west. In the
centre of the wings, the present build
ing, would be arranged Board room,
an office for the principal, and offices
for the City School Superintendent.
The north wing will provide an assem-
Bridgeton pioneer., 1913-01-16

bly, room with the ceiling two stories
in height The seating capacity of the
assembly room is 700. The plans pro-
vide for large platform or stage up
on the extreme north end.
Eight more class rooms are provid-
ed in the east and west wings upon
the second floor, while in the present
building would be arranged a teach
er's room, a lavatory, and two rooms
for laboratories.
This plan provides Is class rooms
together with such rooms as may be
made available in the old Academy
structure.
The plan is one that makes it possi-
BILE for the improvement to be ma 9
one wing or more at any time the city
was prepared to spend the money.
However to give the relief now de-
manded it is important that the pres
ent building on Bank street should be
relieved of all high school work and
opened to the grades. With the entire
high school placed upon the Academy
plant, there could not be congestion in
any of the schools for at least twenty
five years.
The architects have not yet submit
ted an estimate upon the cost of the
proposed improvement, but it is sug-
gested that the entire cost, built ac-
cording to plans provided by law,
would be from $4,000 to $4,000.

CHAS. HAMILTON PAYS
$50 FOR SELLING BEER

| Charles Hamilton drives beer wa
| gon about town for oliver Garrison
AS a defendant last night he was
looked after by Leroy w. Loder.
The positive testimony against
Hamilton came from Ted Wilson, a
| Cedarville oysterman, who is known
to be man who drinks considerably
Wilson said that some few weeks ago
he came to Bridgeton, put some money
| in bank and went around on what is
known as Elizabeth street to visit
| '.Buddo" Milford. Here there were
! gathered a conyivial bunch of booze
| fighters and Wilson offered to pay for
sixel Of beer if anybody could get it.
Some of the party went out and short
ly returned with Charles Hamilton
who delivered in the house small
keg of beer, and Wilson emphatically
declared he paid Hamilton for the
stuff.
Mr.. Loder cross-examined Wilson
closely, but his testimony was un-
shaken.
Robert "Buddo" Mulford corrobor-
ated the testimony of Wilson It was
Mulford who went around to the cor
ner of Jefferson and South Pearl
streets and told Hamilton that q sixel
of beer was wanted at his house. HAM
ilton came around and delivered the
beer and Wilson and Hamilton went
out in the shed. Mulford did not see
Wilson pay the money, but he said
that Hamilton must have gotten the
cash or he would not have left the
beer. Mulford further said, in reply
to questions asked by the Mayor, that
he had frequently had beer delivered
at his home by Hamilton in this way.
Corporation Counsel J. Brodie Nc
Gear, who conducted the prosecution
for the city, brought out the main evil
dence from the witnesses.
Upon cross-examination, Mr.. Loder
developed what physical and almost
mental wreck "Buddo" Mulford has
become His mind does not work
keenly and while he was confident of
his story, he could not tell dates and
time of day. Mulford was a pitiable
figure as he gave every indication of
being absolutely honest, but was cas-
lily confused by sharp and searching
questioning.
Harry Penn and John Beck were
called as witnesses against Hamilton,
but could give no evidence of value /
