and now runs garages at Deal and Lake
wood. Miss Beegle now lives at Deal,
but formerly at Asbury Park, where she
had local prominence as a singer. The
Claytons were married in 1900. Mrs.
Clayton testified they had lived happily
together till 1911, when his love grew
cold, and there was great change in his
former, affection toward her At this
time she learned that he was going with
Miss Beegle. He quit supplying her
with household moneys in his previous
liberality. She left her husband April
~, 1912, and went to her brothers at Is
land Heights, because of his going with
Miss Beegle. Larue often came to her
brothers to coax her to go back home,
sometimes as high as three times week;
said he was sorry for what he had done
and would give up the other woman.
January 2, 1918, she returned to Lake
wood with him. At first for about six
weeks he seemed to be glad to have her
home. In this time Miss Beegle often
called him up on the phone, but Larue
wouldn't answer her, nor would he meet
her when she came from Asbury Park tc
Lakewood and waited all day to see him
Then he got to being out late at nights
again.

Courf.

Judge Lippincott held court on Thurs
day. The first case he disposed of was
that of Dominick Creme, who was con-
victed of entering store at Fairview
and stealing some goods. Sentence was
suspended and the boy was placed in
the hands of the probation officer. There
were two boys connected with the rob-
berry but one of them gave the police the
slip Since Cremo has been in Jail there
has been an effort to get him to disclose
the name of his companion but he has
held to the story that he could not re-
member the name. One of the provis-
ions under which sentence was suspend
ed was that Cremo was, within year,
to aid the authorities in finding the
other boy.
Sarah Williams was tried for assault
with threats to kill an officer. The tes-
timony was that constables Gilbert and
Gaskill went to the house occupied by
Sarah on West Washington street, to
evict her. Before entering they were
warned by neighbor that the woman
kept revolver handy and they were
told to look out for her The constables
were, naturally, somewhat nervous
when they entered the premises. Sarah
objected to being turned out of the house
and it took the combined efforts of the
two constables to get her to the street.
In the scuffie revolver was flashed, but
when 1t came to telling the story on the
witness stand constable Gilbert testified
that he was behind the woman when he
saw the pistol and neither of the officers
could say that the weapon was pointed
at him. Clifford Powell, who was re-
Gently admitted to the bar, was assigned
to defend the woman, and when the
testimony was all in he moved that the
case be dismissed as there was no testi-
mony to show that Sarah had pointed
the pistol at any one.
Judge Lippincott took the same view
of the matter and said that beyond the
fact that the woman had pistol in her
possession there was nothing against her
and he ordered her release. In doing
this he gave the woman lecture on the
law respecting carrying concealed wea-
pOns and he told her it was a dangerous
practice. She asked if she might have
the weapon restored to her but the court
thought she was better off without n.
1t was given to the young lawyer, who
will probably retain it as his first fee.

Judge Kalisch, at Toms River. The

Roll Call Niobt

Friday evening was roll CALI night
of New Jersey Lodge No. 1, Knights of
Pythias, and over one hundred members
were present in the lodge room. 1t was
also the 47th anniversary of the local
lodge.
A pleasing program had been ar
ranged. Music was furnished by the
Imperial orchestra.
Hon. Augustus f. Daix, Jr., Senator
from the 18th district of Philadelphia,
and a member OF Excelsior Lodge No. l,
x. OF F., of Philadelphia. delivered an
excellent address on "Pythianism and
what it has done for mankind"
Grand K. of r. and S. Elmer L. Mar
gerum, gave an interesting address on
The Statistical Side of the Order"
Rev. William L. Zimmerman and
several of the local members delivered
short addresses.
Samuel B. Gale was the honored mem
Der of the occasion, he being the only
surviving charter member of the lodge,
with record of SO years as an officer in
the lodge, having only recently retired,
owing to increasing years.
Another interesting feature was the
reading of paper, giving brief outline
of the work of the late Samuel Read, OF
Mount Holly, who was the first Supreme
Chancellor of the order, and during his
career one of its ardent supporters, hav-
ing organized lodges in thirteen different
states. AS tribute to his great work
the order in 1897, shortly after his death,
placed fine memorial monument over
his grave in ST. Andrews burying
ground
The order of Knights of Pythias came
into existence in 1854, through the eff
forts of Justice III. Rathbone, of Bowie.
Md. He wrote the ritual, taking for its
foundation the friendship of Damon and
Pythias. the two Grecian heroes, who
lived during the reign of the tyrant
Greek ruler, Dionysius, 400 b. C.
The first lodge was formed in Wash
ington, d. c., by Rathbone and 10 Ct
his friends. In fifty years it has grown
to membership of 100000, and to-day
IS one OF the foremost fraternal societies.

WAR" TAXES AND THEIR CAusF
Inc real burden of the stamp tax, cor
rectly known as an emergency" reve-
nue. and incorrectly explained as a war,
tax, began to be felt last Tuesday when
business, big and little, from the heav;-
est financial or commercial broker in the
city to the smallest proprietor of a CIGAR
case or peddler of chewing gum. was
forced to make the acquaintance of the
Collector of Internal Revenue, and paw
tribute for the privilege of doing business
From.all sources, great and small, an in
come OF eighty thousand dollars a
month is expected in this collection dis
trlct alone, and stamp taxes materialize
better than income assessments.
But the worst is yet to come and there
is little solace for the taxpayer in
the hope that the European war may
soon be ended and its burden lifted from
his shoulders. For the connection he
tween the war and the tax is chiefly
fiction, and the use of a coincidence 40
save the face. :" That there is a defie;,
in the Federal budget this year. which
amounts to an emergency, is beyond de
NAL. The decrease in customs receipts
is so great that the income tax, had it
come up to expectations, would not
have filed the gap. AS it is, the full
proceeds of the emergency taxes will
be needed to square accounts, and
the next session of Congress necessarily
must be held to the strictest economy or
there will be deficit after all.
AS to the European war and its effect |
in putting an embargo ON commerce
some facts of record are enlightening.
The customs receipts of the United
States for October last were but a little
over sixteen and quarter million dol

Political Notes

The Burligton County Democratic
Club met in the court house last week.
The session was opened by singing
Were here because we're here" There
really was not much business to trans
act and all inquisitiveness on how the
campaign funds were expended in the
last election was quickly shut off. Off
GERS were elected as follows: President,
Charles Stokes; vice president, Joseph
Huff; secretary, William H. Absalom;
treasurer, Henry Walter. All argument
on who is to be Prosecutor of the Pleas
and Postmaster at Bordentown was de-
clared out of order, although it was gem
orally understood that Bass River must
not come up with any claims for recog-
milton.
The Republican members of the Legis-
lature met on Tuesday and discussed
some OF the measures that are to be con-
sidered at the next session. One of the
subjects was the abolition of the County
Board OF Taxation. 1t seems to be decid-
ed there must be some change but there
was no one who seemed to know
Just exactly what to suggest. The News
does not believe the present boards
should be disturbed unless something
more beneficial or effective can be sub
stituted. With practical knowledge of
what has been done by the Burlington
County Board from its formation until
the present date we have no hesitancv
in saying it has worked for the benefit
OF the county and has done good work
in equalizing values and keeping them
that way. To go back to the old COM
missioners of appeals would be step
backwards. 1t is to be hoped the sub
lect will be given careful study and if
any change is made it will be
one that will keep the assessments up to
their present standard or even do better
than that. Beyond adopting some plan
that may perhaps reduce expenses, it is
difficult to see just where any improve.
ment can be made on the system now in
vogue.
