Florence.

Becoming enraged, it is alleged, at the
elopement and marriage of her daughter,
Miss Myrtle Bishop, to Samuel Hughes,
an Italian, Mrs. Benjamin Goldy horse
whipped her until blood streamed from
her face, and when the newly-made hus-
band interferedi gave him dose also.
Mrs. Goldy now threatens to have him
arrested under the White Slave law on
the ground that the daughter is only l6
years old and the marriage occurred in
Philadelphia.
After having heard of her daughter
marriage and learned that the couple
were in hiding at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Oscar Rome, respected Italian
family, Mrs. Colby, armed with raw
hide, went in search of the couple.
When she arrived at the Rome home
she was compelled to make her entrance
| by force AS she went into the sitting
room she saw someone run upstairs.
Following she discovered the newly
married couple under the bed. She
dragged her daughter out.
Hughes, the husband, states that the
| girl said she was 10 years old when they
were married and produced marriage
certificate to a number of friends. Pre-
vious to the marriage Mrs. Goldy broke
many secret meetings of the couple.

Press Comments.

RESCUE OUR LAND FROM BLATHER
SIXTIES.
The Claf1in failure is the largest that
has ever occurred in the dry goods trade
in America. More money is involved
and a large number of persons are
directly concerned.
For a couple of weeks past there has
throughout the West which excaped
especial notice in the East. A big iron
manufacturing company this week sus-
pended it's dividend. and one of the
die West cut off its dividend two days
ago.
These are ill-omens of the times, and
they constitute an appeal for rational
behavior at Washington beyond any
other plea that could be made. Failures
are definite, concrete calamity which
leave no room for argument.
OF all the humbugs of the present,
the silliest is the pretense that business
men are promoting hard times. But
who shall rise up and dare proclaim
that Clafiin went into receivership
merely for political reasons?
The specific point where Washington
has failed in the existing industrial crisis
is this: Washington does nothing to
ward off the troubles, but, on the con-
traty, continues to promote trouble.
This offers a violent contrast with the
way Germany has handled her depres-
sion. There the Government bends
every nerve to help the situation. even
to forcing a combination of big business
order to prevent wasteful competition.
But in Washington the wrecking crew
is never idle. Every new move is a move
to subtract and not to add, to divide and
not to multiply. Every new law aims
to cut down and curtail and not one en-
deavors to build up or to create.
Washington needs statema nship big
enough to throw politics to the winds
as it marches forth to rescue the land
from a tribe of blatherskit es.-Pu6tic
Ledger.

A statement is being circulated in
Tuckerton that the German wireless
plant on Hickory island is for sale. The
story goes further and says that negoti-
ations have been opened both with the
U. S. government and the Marconi COM
pany. The government is said to be a
likely purchaser, provided the money
wanted is appropriated by Congress.
The department would like to have a
wireless plant on the Jersey coast, but
Congress sliced the appropriation asked.

Chatsworth.

We have recently enjoyed one of the
best base ball games in the history of
this hamlet. Juliustown was our oppo-
nent, and the issue was doubtful until
some of our fielders, initiating the origi-
nal warrior when he crossed the Rubi-
con, threw formality and their brogans
into the discard, and Eau natural" they
were invincible. Though our hearts
throbbed with joy over the victory. our
aesthetic feelings were numbed over the
appearance of the shaggy, twisted, tough
looking things called legs that were in
no wise calculated to fill one with en-
nobling thoughts concerning the sublim-
ity of man.
Meeting the four-thirty is our daily
neighborly splurge, where the amenities
of social life are literally interpreted.
The ladies in festive garments are pre-
sentable, and in the main are young
and good looking; but the men, alas
and alack, owing to the absorption of a
so-called ginger beverage "a liquid COM
posed of sheep-dip, floor stain and whale
oily which is sold in grocery stores, pre-
sent an appearance which would bar
their pictures from the columns of the
Hoholxus Matrimonial Gazette. An adj
vance agent for an amusement concern
stepped off the cars, looked around and
inquired of the railroad agent the extent
of our population, and to his surprise re-
ceived the laconic reply: Focus your
lamps they're all here; count 'em! +"
One of our residents went to a Phila-
delphia hospital for treatment, and one
morning the professor and half a dozen
students making the rounds halted at
his bedside. The professor discussed the
patients symptoms and inquired of a
student if he would advise an operation,
to which the student replied, NO." and
each of the students having been asked
the same question gave the same answer.
when the professor remarked, ''You are
wrong, gentlemen, am going to operate
on him this afternoon, to which our
friend replied, mix on the rough stuff,
Doc; six to one is good enough ma
jority for me. Gimme me clothes !"
/ Much sympathy is expressed for How
ard Sooey over the financial loss he has
sustained through the death of valua-
BILE horse, and as he recently lost another
animal, the damage is a serious one. Our
civic pride has also been hurt over the
loss of the public appearance of those
steeds, inasmuch as the majority of oui
sports are partial to the chargers that ac
companied Noah, because those equines
acquired taste for olive branches, which
is an economical factor here, since they
now take kindly to the coniferous variety
which we provide, and though it may be
sustaining. yet judging by appearances
is not a high class fattening diet.

TUESDAY, JUNE 80, 1914

GIVING testimony before the United |
States Commission on Industrial Re-
lations, Alba A. Johnson, of Philadel- |
phia, was asked how many men were |
employed by the Baldwin Locomotive
Works, of which he is president. His
answer was, do you refer to normal or
psychological times?" 'Both," said
the questioner. Mr.. johnson replied:
Under normal business conditions the
Baldwin Locomotive Works employ
from $1,000 to $4,000 men. At present
we are employing $780," This does not
seem to need any comment, but we
might refer to the failure of the Clafiin
Company, of New York, the largest con-
Germ OF of its kind in the United States,
and then it might be well to call atten-
ton that Woodrow Wilson declined
to discuss the great failure and made the
statement that business is improving
and after his trust bills are passed the
country will have rest and boom,
which leads one to believe that MIR.
Wilson is still convinced that he knows
more about the country's business than
the men who are conducting it.
THERE seems to be chance for clash
between the Board of Pardons and an
other Board said TO have been created by
the last Legislature. 1t is not possible
to give the standing of the latter because
of the slowness with which the laws are
printed and distributed, but the story is
that there is Board that has the power
to parole prisoners in, the state prison.
Fourteen years ago there were sent to
the Trenton institution four men con-
victed of completely in the murder of
Jennie Bosschieter, Paterson mill girl.
The crime was brutal and the punish
ment inflicted upon the men was none
too severe. they escaping the gallows and
getting sentences ranging from a term of
years to life term. One of the men
was released after serving his sentence.
Another was supposed to be dying and
he was released year ago, and the fresh
air outside the prison walls appears to
have been very beneficial to him. And
last week a third of the conyicts was
given his freedom because he, too, was
thought to be going to die soon. The
fourth man has petition asking for
pardon, and if past events are anything
on which to base an opinion he will soon
be out. In the eyes of many this Glenn
ency is misplaced and is not what should
have occurred. If the men who took the
life of an innocent girl under circum-
stances that were revolving and demand
ed the most severe punishment, were to
die they might as well do that deed in
prison as out of it. The question has
been asked whether the men were not
sufficiently punished, but the answer
would seen to be that if such were the
opinion the original sentence should have
been modified. At the time it was inn
posed the general public felt that the
gallows was the proper place for the
criminals. The idea with which this
item was started. however, is the posi-
bility of clash between the pardoning
powers. The Board of Pardons had re-
fused to parole the men, when the new
Board stepped in and claimed the right
to go over the head of the body which
has always controlled such affairs and
practically reversed the decision.
