STANDING OF THE CLUBS
NEXT SATURDAYS GAMES
Mount Holly at Hainesport
Riverside at Moore

Mount Holly at Hainesport
Riverside at Moorestown
Medford al Deanco
The game in Mount Holly was exciting
and interesting. Considerable of the ex-
element was created by the Delanco
rooters, who certainly are noisy bunch
Many of the Delanco followers are MEM
bers of the fair sex, including some suf-
fragettes, and they are perhaps more en-
thusiastic and demOnstrative rOoters
than the men. 1t is generally conceded
that the suffragettes have earned the
privilege of being noisy, so no fault was
found about the pandemonium they
created.
Delanco put up good game but could
not hit Berner at times when hits were
needed. Berner had nine strike-outs to
his credit.
Mount Holly tailed one run in the
first frame on a double by McCue and a
single by Berner.
In the second inning the home team
got another one over the circuit on a
single by Gibbs, sacrifice by Irons and
single by Barry.
The third run came in the seventh by
l.. Gillian, who reached first on the only
error made in the game, and went around
on McCue's double, his second two bag
ger. After this hit, Delanco took Horn
from the pitchers box and substituted
Smith.
The visitors got their tally in the
seventh on a base on balls to Hullings,
who was advanced on single by Lowell
and reached the plate on a single by
Reynolds, who batted for Layman.
A new umpire, named Christine, Off
ciated in very creditable manner. Be
fore the game, William w. Worrell
president of the League, announced that
as the result of this game was very inn
portant in the race for the ponnant, he
had requested the Philadelphia Inquirer
to send first class umpire, SO that there
would be entirely impartial and fair de
cisions. Mr.. Christine was sent and ht
made good.
The detailed score follows:

Circus Coming.

On Friday, September A, Kit Carson s
big Bring wild west circus will exhibit
at Mount Holly, afternoon and night.
This is the largest amusement enterprise
OF. its character in the world. Solid
trains of their own, double-length cars
are, required for the transportation of
this colossal attraction. Never before
have so many features been combined
under one management. The aeroplane
for instance is but one of the strange
sights to be seen with this exhibition. 1t
will circle the town and alight at the
show grounds for the public's inspection.
A menagerie of trained wild animals
is also an innovation with wild west
show. Elephants, camels, buffalo and
on down to the smaller species of bipeds
and quadrupeds. A street pageant
glittering with gold and silver, will de
light the eye and the exquisite music OF
the three big bands will please the lovers
of harmony
The Cossacks with the show were
selected from the czar's cavalry in Russia
and are without doubt the finest horse
men in the world. Then there are the
rough riders from the plains of South
America, vauqueros from Old Mexico,
champion lady riders of the world, i'm
ported European novelty acts of every
description, bands of Sioux, CHEYENNE
and Comanche Indians with theiI
picturesque squaws and papooses. A
dozen comical clowns in fun and foolish.

Equal Suffrage Meeting.

Miss Miriam f. Oatman, of Lumber.
ton, and Miss Mabel V. Haines. of Sum.
NIT, n. j., representatives of the
Woman's Political Union of New JERSEY,
an organization for the purpose of in
teresting the people of the state in the
equal suffrage movement in preparation
for the campaign of 1915, when it is ex-
pected that constitutional amendment
giving women that privilege will be pre-
sented to the voters for their approval,
were touring Burlington county last
week. They delivered addresses at MANY
towns, in some cases holding parlor
meetings at the homes of sympathizers,
in others speaking on the street. Thurs
day evening a well-attended meeting
was held in the court house, Mount
Holly.
Miss Oatman was the only speaker
She stated, in a brief and pleasing man
ner, some of the principal arguments in
favor OF votes for women, and gave her
personal reasons for desiring the vote
Women chiefly desired the vote, she
said, that they might have the power to
make themselves felt in politics and
thus compel the passage of laws they
believe necessary for the safeguarding
of womanhood in the home, the school
and the factory. Under the present ar
rangement Legislators naturally devoted
their attention to the enactment of laws
desired by their constituents, because
the lawmakers future political career
depended upon his making himself solid
with the voters. Women having no voice
in the selection of senators and assem-
blymen, bills desired by them, while
politely received, were generally pigeon
holed.
Miss Oatman also took up and demol-
ished several of the arguments generally
by the anti-suffrage advocates,
and in reply to questions stated that
in equal suffrage states nearly IS per
cent. of the women entitled to vote went
to the polls. She also said that expert
ence had shown that the great majority
of women did not desire political office,
but were content with securing the
adoption of proper laws.
The audience was very attentive, and
when Miss OatInan requested questions
q number of persons responded, showing
that much interest had been taken in
her remarks. Several signed cards ex-
pressing their readiness to assist in the
work of the Union and help in the Or
ganization of branch in Mount Holly
The Union will have a booth and
several representatives at the coming
Mount Holly Fair.

Chatsworth

Owing to our Chatsworth correspon-

months of September and October. the
position of writer for this column is
vacant during that period. Applications
invited.
A private meeting of the school trus-
tees was held on last Saturday night to
appoint teachers and prepare for the
coming session. Why the officials en-
trusted with public business are timid
about publicity concerning their methods
is somewhat of a surprise, but, as Bill
Taylor says, There's a reason"
Nanny Ickleheimer, whose name
vouches for his Hibernian descent. de-
clares that the European imbroglio will
settle one serious problem in this coun
try, particularly in our large centers of
population. The social evil, with its
transatlantic traffic in vice and immod-
estes in dress, will now be confined to
that spot where the Kaiser is making
goo-goo eyes at the heaven of our Amer
lean Mohammedan prohigates.
One of our leading residents here, who
originally hailed from the blue Alsatian
mountains, was visiting one of his ten
ants at Vicksburg recently, and was en-
tertained in the usual style, accompanied
for his benefit. When the hot scotches |
had struck the right spot, our exile re-
quested that THE watch on the Rhine"
be performed. When the horror stricken
host demanded the reason why, he re-
piled: well, | wanted to see how long |
could stand it without kicking the |
machine to pieces.
An amusing incident happened recent |
ly, neighbor firing OF the strenuous |
struggle for two meals daily in locality |
where the necessities of life in other !
nelghborhoods are deemed luxuries here,
decided to sell quickly and at sacrifice
II necessary, in order to make an early
getaway. One of our Jewish citizens
met him and inquired "what will you
sell your house and land for?" Receiving
the prompt response of you can have
them on your own terms and at your
own price, to which our guileless and
unsophisticated Israeite responded with
the prlmoidial and calculated utious-
ness CHARACTERISTIC of his race, Cant you
DO little better than that mister?'
did We hear the latest?" inquired
Cassusa today. At Cranes local lumber
mill, which is manned by Teutons from
FOLSOM, there is much discussion con-
corning the ACCESSIBILITY of their volun-
teerlng for service in the fatherland.
Bill Tailor says he is afraid there are too
many bierstubs on the route to the
nearest shipping point, and that our
embryo warriors stand better chance

that with all their "Wacht am Rheims

before they leaped into it.
