Out Again! In Again!

Accused of burglary, Harry Filler, aged
GA years, of Riverton, was committed to
the Camden Jail without bail by Record
Ter Stackhouse Wednesday morning.
The complaint against him was made
by Michael Russell.
1t was shortly after o'clock Tuesday
evening that Russell heard crash and
on investigating found that the bulk
window of his store had been broken.
Filler was in the act of purloining some
belts and after securing several he ran
down Kaighn avenue. Russell went in
pursuit and had Policeman Harden take
Filler into custody.
81 don't know anything about it, d
said Filler to the Recorder Wednesday
morning. 81 was drunk"
Filler was a prisoner before the Recorder
Tuesday as result of sporting jag on
Kaighn avenue last Saturday. On that
occasion Policeman Gilbert gathered
him in after Filler tried to take up all
the space about the Point. However,
he was given his freedom. No sooner
was he out than he began to liquor up
with the result he is now in serious
trouble.

The Carnival.

This evening there will be a meeting
in the court house to discuss the subject
Of holding carnival on the upper creek
on the Fourth of July. This meeting
will not be confined to canoeists who are
interested in the project, but cordial
invitation is extended to the public to
be present and give expression to their
views on the subject.
These carnivals began three years ago
on small scale, and were conducted by
few young men and women who were
interested in aquatic sports and sought
an enjoyable way of celebrating Inde-
pendence Day. General interest in the
event grew so rapidly, however, that the
carnival last year was, in reality, town
affair; and it is hoped to make it even
more so this year.
When the carnival was first planned
it took much work to get it in shape.
The young people in charge worked
faithfully to make the occasion one of
interest to all and they succeeded to
such an extent that the event was looked
forward to with eagerness by all those
who had witnessed the various contests.
1t is desired that this interest shall not
be allowed to die out. There cannot be
any better way to celebrate sane Fourth
of July than in participating as princi-
pals and spectators in the carnival.
Therefore it is hoped there will be large
attendance of citizens at the meeting in
the court house this evening and that
substantial aid will be given to the
young men who are willing to devote
their time to the affair,

New WAY of Paving Fares,

The new method of paying cash fares
on all cars of the Burlington County
Transit Company is now in full swing
At meeting of the board of directors
yesterday the final plans were made and
the change in methods unanimously APP
proved.
1t will be genuine novelty to many
local riders, although this hand-held
register and insert-your-nickel-pl please,
type of collecting device is in use in
many large cities and spreading rapidly.
An advertisement elsewhere in this issue
states the reason for the new system
being adopted. The passenger cannot
easily claim inconvenience under the
new payment method. He simply pays
his nickel into the mouth of a 20-ounce
business-like looking device held in the
conductors hand and conveniently pre-
sented. The passenger actually registers
his own fare. The conductor will make
change when passenger lacks the nickel,
and the passenger himself must insert
Registration cares for itself automatical-
ly. The few riders using paper five cent
tickets will be handed nickel by the
conductor for each such ticket rendered
and the passenger will then insert the
nickel thus given him. This applies
also to the five pennies occasionally ten
dered
The old register is out of the car, and
a neatly framed sign explains the meth
cd. The register is most ingenious
device. The instant your nickel but
slightly enters it's greedy little mouth, a
bell rings, one numerical point moves
up on totalizer dial and the coin is
seemingly gripped by mechanical fingers
and firmly drawn from your hand to the
conductors hand. The money is always
in plain sight and instantly available to
the conductor for inspection or change
making purposes.
This sure grip and actual pull on the
coin is feature that will excite wonder
ment. rs it a magnet, compressed air,
or what?" The passenger who avoids
asking this and other questions will
stand well with the conductor for few
days until he becomes more familiar
with it himself.

A Delightful Occasion.

America Hose Company reached its
56th birthday Thursday, and it was de-
cided to have celebration that would
fit the occasion. The company had also
reached another period in it's life that
was source of great satisfaction to its
members-it had paid off the mortgage
on it's home and was clear of debt. So
it was decided to add to the birthday
celebration the cancellation of the mort
gage.
The first part of the programme was
at the hose house. George w. A. French,
president of the company, presided at
the meeting, which was enlivened with
music by an orchestra. The roll of mem
bers was called and an historical sketch of
the company was read. Short speeches
were made by members and then the
mortgage was placed on plate and a
match was applied to it. This was the
first instance of America Hose Com
pany rejoicing in fire or refusing to
quench the flames, but as the piece of
paper that had kept the members watch
ing their expenditures in order to be free
from debt, went up in smoke, there was
loud applause and no alarm of fire was
sent in.
After this ceremony the members and
invited guests went to the Arcade hotel,
where the banquet was spread. After
enjoying the feast speeches were made
by those called upon by the toastmaster.
Edward b. Jones, who has been a MEM
Der of the company since May, 1872,
was presented with handsome bouquet.
The guests of the evening were the
chief engineer and his assistants, the
township committee and clerk. Robert
s. Gaskill, president of the fire depart
ment, sent his regrets at not being able
to be present, owing to recent bereave-
ment in his family.
The entire affair was enjoyed by al
who participated and America company
IS to be congratulated upon being free
from debt and in a prosperous condition.

CHESTNUT STREET OPERA HOUSE
Do you know that the Chestnut Street
Opera House will be the only playhouse
in Philadelphia where you can witness
"a dramatic performance this summer?
Other theatres close their doors at the
first sign of hot weather but this house
is something like the celebrated brook
that "goes on forever" Lots of people
cannot or do not leave the city during
the warmer months, and with the visit
ors who come to the city for day, they
are delighted to come to a high-class
playhouse, where they can be assured
i of fine performance amid cool and
spacious surroundings. That is the
principle upon which the Orpheum
Players have always operated, and the
expectations of the management have
been consistently fulfilled in large and
we'll pleased audiences. The Chestnut
Street Opera House, by reason of its con
struction, is much cooler building in
summer time than the Chestnut Stree
Theatre, the old home of the Orpheun

The second series of games of the Cen

again exciting contests, demonstrating
that the teams are all closely matched.
All three games required nine innings to
decide the winners; none of them were
one-sided.
The game at Moorestown appeared fol
a time to be quite easy for Delanco, but
the home team gradually gained runs
until the score was tie in the eighth
Plenty of errors and free hitting by both
sides caused the number of runs scored
At Hainesport the game with Medford
was another exhibition of free hitting
coupled with quite few errors. MedforC

The home rooters contended that Haines
