NEW BRICK PLANT
Philadelphians Planning One Just
West of New Hope.

The latest movement toward a
brick plant at New Hope was made
last week by Henry B. Neeley, of
Philadelphia, who took an option
on the farm of Charles Bond, which
is located next the lands of the New
Hope Vitrified Brick Company, at
Huffnagle station.
1t is expected that there will be
something doing at the New Hope
Company's plant soon, and it is also
said that the people who are back
of the proposed purchase of the
Bond farm will erect large brick
plant to turn out vitrified brick.
Both of these plants would be
located in the Aquetong Valley, a
secondary valley located within the
Solebury Valley, and would be
directly along the Northeast Penn
sylvania Railroad, convenient to
Huffnagle and Reeder stations.
The former is within the New
Hope borough limits and the lattre
just beyond the borough line.

CALLED EACH
OTHER LIARS
Recorder Dilts' Court Hears Two
Stories in Mayor Morse's
Gambling Crusade.
SEVEN WERE FINED $40 EACH

gambling trails before Recorder
Robert1aH. Dilts opened last Friday
morning in the council chamber,
with packed house and plenty of
excitement. Mayor Morse laid aside
coat, collar and necktie right at the
beginning, and the crowd shed all
their superfuous garments, on ac-
count of the heat.
Seven cases were tried during
the morning and seven were fined
$40 each. They were James Bishop,
Joseph Finkle and Samuel Friedman
and four colored men: Napoleon
White, Charles Smith, Arthur Lane
and = John Crawley Napoleon
Bonaparte White said it was his
birthday, but Recorder Dilts said he
would not add anything on to the
fine..on that account. All were
charged with shooting crap on
the schoolhouse hill, excepting
Finkle, who was alleged to have
financed asgame.
The continuation of the gambling
cases in the afternoon was marked by
charges and countercharges of
liar and perjurer. and other little
pleasantries which tended to allevi-
ate in a measure, the heat of the
council room, packed to the doors.
The first cases called were those
of Joseph Moonan, John McLough-
lin and George Agin, who were
charged, last week, with threaten
ing to do bodily injury to j. A.
Bozlee, one of the detectives in the
clse.
Counsellor Frank Cleary appeared
for the trio, and succeeded in hav-
ing their leases dismissed by the
recorder, on the ground of lack of
evidence to show that any real
threats had been made.
After reciting number of
defects in the allegations, Counsel
lor Cleary waived them all and
asked that the case be tried on its
merits alone, which resulted in the
| dismissal.
The case against Ross Gilbert,
charged with gambling was dis
missed as no evidence was produced
against him, but not until about
half the afternoon had beeN~ used
up in arguing technical points of
the case.
Counsellor Edgar w. Hunt claim
ed that the ordinance was defective,
according to a ruling of the
Supreme Court in 1867, and again
by a recent ruling.
He also challenged Recorder
Dilts' impartiality in trying the
case, as he said the Recorder had
expressed an opinion as to the
accused mans guilt.
Mr.. Hunt asked for a jury, and
for the substitution of Justice of the
Peace C. C. B. John, in the case,
but Recorder Dilts overruled both
objections, and ordered the case
continued, finally dismissing it.
There was long and hot argu-
ment between Counsellor Hunt
and Detective Bozlee, in which the
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1914-07-29

Chief of the agency, Sweeney, took
part at times.
The counsellor demanded to
know where Bozlee was on Thurs
day, and also refused to permit him
to refer to notebook he carried
in his pocket. He said that Bozlee
should be named as a notorious
character to falsify," instead of as
a detective.
Harry Meehan's case was called
next, and Mr.. Hunt used an hour
in discussing with Bozlee the
methods of determining whether or
not the reports submitted were
correct.
There was a long and merry
squabble, in which Mr.. Hunt
characterized Detective Bozlee as
liar, y perjurer," and other
pleasant characters, and Detective
Sweeney said he was once a lawyer
but changed to more honorable
profession.
He also suggested to Mr.. Hunt
that careful perusal of statistics
would show that more lawyers than
detectives were inmates of prisons.
Between these pleasantries, the
laughing and whooping of the
crowd, remarks by Mayor Morse,
and the snoring of Recorder Dilts'
dog, which occupied a place near
the judicial chair, the recorder
himself managed to get a word in
edgewise now and then.
Just as Bozlee got settled down
to describing the alleged gambling
of Meehan and himself, Meehan
called him C. - liar!" so
loud that not only the court
audience but those half a block
down the street heard him.
Mayor Morse called for officer
Huselton to take the young man to
to the lookup.
Counsellor Hunt explained to the
court that the fine for using oaths
was only fifty cents, and promptly
paid the same, adding an apology
for Meehan's honest indignation, etc.
Recorder Dilts explained his wish
to be fair in the case, and dismissed
Meehan for lack of evidence against
him.
The charge against Thomas
Mooney. whom Mr.. Hunt also
represented, went over to next
Friday, when there will be another
Seance.

THE QUEENS NEW DRESS.

The Queen Theatre opened last
night to the public after few weeks
repairs caused by the recent fire, and
the old building has undergone a COM
plete remodeling throughout as well
as that part which sustained injuries
by the fire.
The interior walls have been re.
painted, the lighting system improved
and the electric fans have undergone
a decided change for the better, with
new floor coverings, which altogether
gives a pleasing, cool and comfortable
appearance.
We were shown through the operat-
ing rooms, our first look in, and If il
is possible to make this department
more perfect or freer from fire we
were unable to see 1t. This room is
lined throughout with double steel and
contains trap which can be worked
from the office and make 1t absolute
ly alright in moment. The machines
are both new and of the most i'm
proved type. guaranteeing the best
pictures possible to produce.
Those attending the opening yes
terday could readily see and appre,
cate the improvements Just made
which will no doubt make the Queen
as popular as she deserves.
