Must Show Cause.

Several persons in this town and
neighborhood have been summoned to
appear before the United States District
Court at Camden, on Monday, April 20,
to show cause why an assessment should
not be made for the full amount of SUBJ
scriptions for stock of the Otto-Mobile
Company the concern that started bust
ness here and then went into bankruptcy.
The trustee in bankruptcy has filed a
report setting forth the subscriptions to
the capital stock of this company, the
amount paid thereon and the amount of
unpaid subscriptions. He claims it is
necessary to get all this money in to
satisfy the debts of the concern and he
prays the court to issue an order for the
subscribers TO the stock to show cause
why they should not pay the amounts
they agreed to be liable for.
There were number of persons who,
verbally and otherwise, agreed to take
stock in the Otto-Mobile Company, but
after the matter had gone along for
certain length of time it became apparent
that the concern could not go ahead and
it went into the bankruptcy courts.
Many of those who subscribed to the
stock made partial payments and then
thought there was no use in throwing
good money after bad, so they let the
matter drift along. 1t is to determine
whether these people are liable for the
full amount of their subscriptions that
the session of the court will be held on
the Goth of this month.

Earl Divorce Suit.

Binney Woodward Earl, the youthful
Edgewater Park heir to fortune and
defendant in divorce suit brought by
his wife, is charged in a brief filed at
Trenton on Friday, by Mrs. Earl, who
was Irma Lee, OF Burlington, with hav-
ing given false testimony at the trial of
the divorce proceedings in chancery be-
fore Vice Chancellor Lewis. Earl has
appealed from the decree of divorce
granted by Vice Chancellor Lewis, and
his case is now pending in the court of
errors and appeals. The brief filed on
Friday in the court of errors was in an
swer to the appeal proceedings opened
by Earl.
The Earl case attracted widespread
attention at the time of trial of the
action in chancery. The testimony was
of most sensational nature on both
sides. The Earls were married in 1908
after runaway match. At the time OF
the wedding Earl was % years of age
and his bride was in her teens. After
the wedding they went to Edgewatel
Park and lived in home which had
been built for them by Earl's mother
They separated in 1911, and the divorct
action, based on statutory charges, wa
lopened by the wife.

Not daunted by the fact that the sum-
ming up was disappointment to the
committee that had hoped to meet ON
March 31st, to find, when all towns had
reported that the required sum for the
Colony had been raised, those present in
Mount Holly at this meeting discussed
various plans of reaching persons who
surely are willing to help in this cause,
but have not, as yet, given to the fund;
the completion of which means the
future disposition of one of the great
problems that must be faced by the
thinking public-the proper care and
training of those whose minds have not
developed normally; forming class of
citizens who are not entirely responsible
for deeds of omission and commission,
the result of which helps to fill our peni-
tentiaries and places of refuge.
All great movements have small be-
ginnings and those interested are look
ing toward the future by preparing for
some, at least, of Burlington county's
unfortunates. One glance at the above
figures will show where the greatest in
terest has been enthusiastically
entirely out of proportion to the popula-
ton in many of the places named. 1t is
true that there are demands of every
klnu upon everyone out mite from
those who can only afford mite and a
generous gift from those who are blessed
with this worlds goods would soon make
the fund complete and Burlington coun-
| ty Colony would be able to receive its
wards within few months.
The manager of Burlington county
Colony, J. Frank Macomber, was pres
ent at the meeting in Mount Holly and
| told the committee that much of the
ground for the site of the Colony had
been cleared; that lumber for building
operations had arrived, and the plan fol
the parkway and the buildings, surround
ed by grass and flowers, was explained
Certainly worthy object for the con.
tribution of those who are interested in
these unfortunates. The committee sug
gests that contributions of any amount
may be sent promptly to the secretary
of the committee, Margaret S. Haines
of Burlington; to the president of the
Icommittee, Daniel w. Bishop, of Flor
ence, or to any of the local committee
SO that the May meeting of the Burling
ton county committee may find tn,
work of collecting funds completed.

Judge Lippincott held his first session
of the Burlington county courts Thurs
day.. On his desk was handsome bou
quet of flowers presented by some of the
court officers.
Prosecutor Atkinson made a speech
welcoming the new Judge and said the
latter had shown himself to be lawyer
of integrity and ability and there was no
fear that the business of the county
would not be kept up to the high stand
ard that had heretofore characterized it.
Judge Lippincott said he was glad to
be thus welcomed. He intended to give
strict attention to the court business
and asked the aid of the bar in his
efforts to give fair and unbiased opin-
ions.
Judge Lippincott announced that he
will hold court every Thursday. The
first and third Thursdays will be the
business of the Orphans court, civil
cases and the Common Pleas. All other
Thursdays will be for the disposition
of criminal matters. When Thursday
is legal holiday he will hold court
the next day.
After disposingo of some Orphans court
business the Judge asked if Prosecutor
Atkinson had anything to present. The
first man to be brought before the new
Judge for attention on criminal charge
was John Vansciver, who had been sent
to Jail on charge of attempting to COM
NIT suicide. Mr.. Atkinson said this was
a case of too much liquor. When under
the influence of drink Vansciver is not
only menace to himself but to others.
This was not the first time he had at
tempted to take his life. On the occas-
ion in question he had a revolver and
the people in the house with him were
afraid he was going to kill them, but he
said he intended to use the pistol on
himself and they had him arrested.
Judge Lippincott asked Vansciver il
he thought he could keep from drinking
liquor for any length of time and the
man said he would try. He had gone a
year on one attempt without drinking a
drop. The Judge said he was disposed
not to be too severe but he thought Van
solver should be put away until the appe-
| tite for drink had abated, SO he sent the
man to the county Jail for six months.
| Assemblyman Peacock appeared in
behalf of James Sweeney, who wanted
to be released from jail. He had served
a sentence of four months for assaultine
an officer. In addition to the prison sen
| tence a fine of $50 had been imposed
upon Sweeney. This meant that hi
must serve day for each dollar of fine
He had been in Jail 30 days on this pen
atty and as there were but twenty more
days to serve he felt that he might b.
released, as he had position waiting
him at Florence.
The Board of Freeholders at the meet
ing last week had adopted a resolution
asking the court to remit the fine, ant
acting on this Judge Lippincott ordered
the mans discharge, with the provis'
that he must report to the court on tn
first Thursday in May and with warn
ing that if he did not keep straight h
would have more punishment infiicte'
ON him.
