At 800 Thanksgiving day, Melrose, of
Atlantic City. for two years the unde-
feated champions of South Jersey play
here. This team by virtue of having
won all their games for two successive
years, claims the championship for this
year, and issued def to all Southern
New Jersey teams to meet them on their
own ground. Mount Holly, by guaran-
teeing them large sum of money, has
been able to book this attraction for the
home grounds on Thanksgiving after
noon, and the best game of the season
may be expected. A large attendance is
urged. No admission to the grounds
will be charged, owing to the fact that a
number of business men have contribut-
ed money to pay nearly half the sum
necessary, and it is expected that the
balance will readily be obtained in the
collection during the game.
Come out to see this game by al
means. as the team, by its showing this
year has heartily merited your support
and if it can finish this year without {
deficit, schedule for next year will b.

johnson Sentenced to Death.

| Griffin James johnson, convicted o
murder of the first degree, was sentenced
by Judge Kalisch yesterday. Since th'
trial Johnson has become physica
wreck. He was brought into the couri
room by two officers who were compelled
to assist him, in fact he was in such 9
collapse that it was almost necessary tc
carry him.
Judge Kalisch pronounced sentence al
once. He said: Griffin James Johnson,
jury of this county has convicted you
of murder of the first degree. The pain
full task devolves upon me to impose the
judgment of the law. For the crime you
have committed you shall suffer death
In the place designated for such purpose
during the week beginning January 4,
1915"
Johnson was allowed to remain sitting
when sentence was pronounced. He did
not appear to understand the proceed
ings and acted as if in dazed condition.
AS soon as sentence had been passed the
papers in the case were delivered to
Sheriff Stecher. An automobile was in
waiting in front of the court house and
the prisoner was put in it and was at
once taken to Trenton.
Assemblyman Peacock, who defended
Johnson, will at once apply to the Court
of Pardons to have the sentence COM
muted to life imprisonment. His ground
for this action is that the conviction
should have been for second degree MUIR
der, the evidence not warranting the
finding Of the higher degree verdict. 1t
will be remembered that many thought
that Judge Kalisch's charge was to that
effect.

Yesterday morning Judge Lippincot'
had case before him which aroused the
sympathies of all who witnessed it. 1t was
that Of boy, 16 years of age, who had
been under the care of the probation off
Ger and who had not paid any attention
to the requirements of that officer. 1t was
also shown that the boy would not go to
school, would not work, and that he
would steal. The boys father told the
court how he had tried to keep the lad
employed, but the latter would rather
ride around on huckster wagons without
pay than to work for wages. The father
said he loved the boy, who is his only
son, but felt he could not restrain him.
The boy showed much emotion while
the father was testifying and shed tears,
and the father, after giving his testi-
mony, sffectionately embraced his son
and whispered words of advice to him.
Judge Lippincott did not dispose of this
case, but decided to wait until he received
some information regarding the age of
the boy. On this will depend whether
the lad will be sent to the State Reform
School or to the State Reformatory.
After this case was finished widows
pensions were considered. There were a
number of applicants and the matter
occupied nearly the entire day.

Killed bv a Trolley Car.

A foreigner employed on the Brakeley
estate farm at Bordentown was instant
ly killed early Wednesday evening by a
Public Service trolley car at Bordentown.
The body was horribly mangled and was
unacceptable. The man was identified
as one of the Brakeley employees by a
number on badge he wore.
The victim left the farm, where the
product for the canning factory is raised,
and went to Bordentown to buy several
loayes of bread to take back to his dwell
ing. This had been his custom every
couple of days. He was walking along
the trolley tracks when the car leaving
Trenton at o'clock came along. The
car was running down the incline pas
the gate of the old Bonaparte park wher
the victim walked directly in front of it
The motorman did not see him until h
was within q few feet of the car. TIL
entire car passed over him. Many O
the passengers became badly frightene'
when they learned that man had BEEF
killed.

Forest Fire Losses.

Twenty-Five square miles of what unit
recently was part of the most valuable
timber land in South Jersey, transferred
into a barren waste of white sand,
marked only by burned and charred
stumps, with every bit of brush and
vegetation burned, is what the special
commission investigating the recent
forest fire in South Jersey, at the direc-
ton of Governor Fielder. found on Their
tour Of inspection on Wednesday.
A start was made from Hammonton,
and practically all Of the one million
acre Wharton tract, where the principal
damage was done, was gone over by the
investigators. They found that the fire
started in an abandoned settlement
known as Quaker Bridge, which Is now
without q single inhabitant.
There was nothing to disclose how the
fire originated, except the previously ex-
pressed theory that it had been caused
| by deer hunters driving their quarry out
into the open, or by some person or per-
sons unknown, with the malicious intent
of destroying the property.
In addition to the timber lands, many
valuable cranberry boys, including those
from which the Forestry Commission, as
an experiment, raised more than five
hundred crates during the last season,
were wiped out entirely.
Practically all of the sixteen thousand
acres destroyed where the fire swept
everything in its path consisted of pine
trees, with some oak, and, near the bog
section, large quantity of cedar, all of
it of growth ranging from thirty to
forty years.
1t was in this section, particularly, that
the State Water Supply Commission ex-
pected to be able, under the direction of
the Forestry Commission, to cut timber
with market value of $25 an acre and
upward, realizing for the State from this
source, an income which it was asserted
at the time of the Wharton tract deal
was under way, would be adequate to
meet the interest and sinking fund
charges On the million dollar bonds
which the Water Supply Commission
contemplated issuing for the purchase of
| the tract.
The price agreed upon was $1,000, 900,
being an average of $40 an acre for the
tract, and even at that figure, an area
worth $4,000 was destroyed by the fire
two weeks ago.

Increase in Railroad Fares

No recent move has created as mucl
discussion and resentment as the decis
ion .of the railroad companies to rails
their passenger rates. In many of tn
towns from which there go daily mum
bers of commuters there have been pro
tests loud and long and meetings hav,
been held and committees appointed Il
look into the situation. In the lowe
part of this state petitions were signed
asking Governor Fielder to call an extrs
session of the Legislature to take some
action to prevent the railroad companies
from carrying out their plan, but it il
not likely sthe Governor. will accede tc
this request, as it is said the Public Util-
ity Commission has sufficient power tc
meet the condition.
1t is not very probable that much re-
lief will be afforded in the way of keep
ing the fares down. While there are
many arguments against the raise there
are always two sides to every question,
and the railroad companies claim they
have very good basis for increasing
fares.
In the meantime there are some things
that might be done. The people are not
compelled to use the steam roads. The
trolleys are running and will probably
keep right on going; that is, if the di-
rectors of those roads will get busy and
put their equipment in good shape. The
road from Burlington to Moorestown
needs much attention. The directors
say they cannot afford to spend much
money, but there are those who profess
to have some knowledge of the affairs OF
the company who think differently. In
stead OF paying four per cent. divi.
dend recently there might have been an
expenditure that would have been bene-
fetal. One of the cars which came to
Mount Holly from Moorestown a few
evenings since had a broken window
and seats from which the mating cover
ing was being torn and ripped, while the
whole appearance of the car was far
from inviting.
If the roadbed was put in condition
and express cars were run the trolley
company would soon be in position to
pay more than four per cent. dividend.
1t would take only two of those cars
each way daily. Let them run with as
few stops as possible in Mount Holly,
one at Masonville and one at Hartford
If necessary, with not more than two
stops in Moorestown and one in Mer-
chantville, and they would do a good
business and give nearly as quick ser
vice as the steam roads now give and at
much reduced cost.
1t is the opportunity for the trolley
company to wake up and get out of the
Rip Van Wrinkle sleep that seems to be
overpowering it at present.
So far as New Jersey is concerned a
halt has been called by the Public Util-
ity Commission, which has set Deem
Der % as the date on which hearing on
the subject will be held. In the mean
time the commission has ordered that
the increase in rates shall not take effect
before the 18th of March. This applies
to New Jersey fares only. Pennsylvania s
Commission has not taken any action
as the subject has not been presented to
it in legal shape. Prior to the 18th of
March the New Jersey Legislature will
meet and there will undoubtedly be at:
tempts to legislate on the question.
