Cape May Trounced

The third championship game of
basket ball between Cape May and the
Eagles was played on Tuesday evening
at the cage, Hotel Colonial. The
Eagles band was in attendance and
the Eagles five out played, out cIassed
and ran rings around the quinfette
from Cape May. The first half ended
rs to 10 in favor Of the Eagles. The
second half was a disgrace to the name
Of basket bali as 1t developed into a
prize fight and jennie Dietz could have
booked some good boys had he been
there. Goldberg received several good
jabs in the face aud Willets lost several
teeth. Referee Banks deserves credit
for the manner in which he handled
the game and no doubt the Cape May
followers think the same. There are
still about eight games 10 be played In
this series and our advice is "Get to-
gether, Cape May and Wildwood, play
and play fair and square for sports sake
and may the best team win.n The
tinal score was 1925 in favor Of the
Eagles.

New Railroad Rates

Monday, December IA, 1914, was a
busy day at railroad ticket offices In the
sections adjacent TO Philadelphia affect
ed by the proposed increase in fares.
The Interstate Commerce Commission
declined to interfere with the proposed
increase but left the matter open for
complaints as to the reasonableneHs of
the increase. Late Saturday afternoon
last, the State Utilities Commission of
Pennsylvania approved the increased In
that State, with some notifications
which left the railroads practically all
they asked for. The New Jersey Utili-
ties Commission which had Issued an
order ~suspending the proposed increase
until March, pending hearings, decided
on Monday afternoon to continue the
holdup in fares until that date, so that
as we understand 1t. fares will remain
the same as they have been from any
n point within the State of New Jer-
sey to another point in the State.
To get advantage of the old rates it
will be necessary for instance, to buy
a ticket TO Camden, instead OF Phila-
delphia as heretofore, as a ticket to any
point outside Of this state will carry
with its purchase the advanced rate as
tacitly approved by the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
This leaves matters somewhat mixed,
with two commissions allowing the adj
vance and the New Jersey Commission
asuspending it.
With the fear that all fares would be
raised Tuesday, commuters and holders
of 100 trip tickets invested heavily on
the supposedly last chance to buy low
fares. 1t Is said that about $4,000 worth
of tickets were purchased in Bridgeton
alone, on that day.
As matters now stand, New Jersey
travellers have much lower fares than
Pennsylvanians.-Elme Times.

GIANT %CENTIPEDES.

a Foot Long and Armed With Forty
Odd Poison Laden Claws.
Centipedes have nowhere a good rep
utation. Some of those In the tropics
are terrible creatures indeed. The
giant centipede of Trinidad and vene-
zuela is sometimes a foot long and can
do very serious harms Its foremost
pair Of feet are modified into supple
mentary jaws, which are fanglike and
may infict a powerful bite. Further
more, each has a poison gland at its
base that sends into the wound u
venom deadly to small creatures and
very painful even TO mankind.
Moreover, the sharp claw of each of
the forty-one feet is poisonous like
wise. SO that when the animal crawls
over the soft skin of the human arm
it leaves a trail Of red. in1amed spots.
1t is dangerous to knock the centipede
off, for instantly the creature drives
the claws more deeply into the flesh
and sends a greater amount of venom
into each puncture. 1t may also take
hold with its jaws.

or is itself caught by an enemy 1t coils
itself around its antagonist and grips
it tenaciously with all its legs. 1t Is
therefore a very unlucky object to
tackle. In this connection 1t Is inter
esting to note that many myriapods
are brightly banded with black and
yellow, contrasting tints that show
c~onspicuously against the dark soil OF
the forests where they abound. The
giant centipede is a shining mahogany
brown, with the legs blush and ringed
with yellow.
A singular fact about centipedes
(which, In spite of the name, rarely
have 100 feet and may have as few as
ifteen) is that the number Of legs Is In
variably odd and may vary In number
ever In specimens that belong to the
same species. All are carnivorous.
The smaller kinds feed on worms and
grubs, the larger on any living prey
they can overcome. They are. there

Gunners Almost Drowned

Budd Hoffman, oldest son of Mayor
Hoffman, and his cousin, Doe Hildreth,
nearly met their death on Saturday
last, in the icy waters of Stingaree, q
small body of water outside of Sunset
Lake at the crest. Mayor Hoffman
accompanied by the two boys, boarded
Mr.. Hoffman's boat to which was at
tached a cunning skiff and started for
Stingaree, where they contemplated
ducking. Arriving at their blind, the
boys clambered into the skif and start
ed away from the larger boat. When
about one hundred and fifty yards
from the house boat, the skiff, weighed
down by the weight of the guns, be-
gan to settle and the boys were obliged
to swim about fifty yards to shallow
water, where they became embedded
in the soft mud to the waist. The
mayor had fallen asleep in the house
boat and it was an hour or more before
their cries awakened him. He immed'
lately started his engine and rescued
the boys, taking them back to the yachl
club, where they remained several days
before ~venturing out of doors after the
terrible ordeal through which they
just passed. Both guns, the skiff and
a quantity of shells were lost.

James McLinden, who was elected Mayor OF North Wild
wood last month, will take his seat at noon January l, 1915,
for a term of two years.
Mr.. McLinden was born IN Armagh County, Ireland, on
April %, 1883. At the age of five years he came to Amer
lea with his parents, locating in Philadelphia, where he at
tended the public schools. He went to work as a small boy.
In 1902 MI. McLinden came to Anglesea to direct the
work on the trolley line. He built many of the roads and
sidewalks of the island, including the Pacific avenue brick
street and the paved street at the Crest. This is his first
public office.
Mr.. McLinden is the eighth man to hold the Office of
Mayor. The Anglesea borough government was organized
in 1885, and a few years ago the name was changed by an
act of the legislature to North Wildwood. The following
are the names of the Mayors:
