BRAKEMAN

Bridgeton Brakeman Was
Killed This Morning.
W. PIERCE WALTER
Met an Accidental Deathsat SIS
o'clock This Morning at
Red Bank.

William Pierce Walters, a brake
man on the local freight on the Cen
trail railroad, was killed in Red Bank
at 5.55 o'clock this morning.
How he met his death was not
known here this morning.
Mr.. Walters residence was on At
lantic Street, opposite the home of
j. Harry Garrison.
Mr.. Walters family consists of his
wife, and two nearly grown up sons.
Mrs. Walters is the daughter of Phil
ip Hitchner, the well known black
smith.
Mr.. Walters father, brother and two
sisters reside in Camden.
The supposition is that the brake
man fell off or was knocked off his
car in the confusion of the early morn
ing, at the yard in Red Bank. No one
seems to have seen him when he was
killed and no one could tell how It
happened.
The remains are expected to ar
rive here on the train arriving tonight
The sympathies of the community
go out to the bereaved family in their
sorrowful affliction.

MINISTERS
IN SESSION

The first fall meeting Of the Bridge
ton Ministerial Association was held
yesterday afternoon in the rooms of
the Commercial League.
The meeting was informal and no
business was transacted. There being
but few of the ministers present,
the meeting, as one Of the ministers
stated, was only talk. There was some
discussion, in a general way, as to
plans for church activities, but no
action was taken on any matter.
1t seemed to be merely coming
together of the minister's; there were
present Rev. A. B. Collins, Rev. o. G..
Morton, Rev. W. D. Stults, Rev. J. H.
Morgan, Rev. D. E. Lewis, Rev. ]. F.
Jewett and others.
Entering into the conversation was
reference to the proposed Tabernacle
meeting, but of all the talk the result
was nothing tangible, and the meeting
ended.

MURDER CASE
ON MONDAY

On Monday next Supreme Court
Justice Charles G. Black will come to
Bridgeton and preside at the murder
trial of BENJAMIN Ammell. of Vineland,
who it is alleged, killed his best friend
in drunken brawl.
The trial will probably last about
two days, it being understood that the
testimony will be in small compass.
That Ammell will be particularly
we'll defended is assured inasmuch as
the counsel for defense is former Pros
ecutor ]. Hampton Fithian. No law
yer in the State is better equipped or
more familiar with the criminal busi-
ness than Mr.. Fithian. He stands fore
most with the criminal lawyers of New
Jersey.

PRINCETON MEN
GO To CHURCH

Princeton, N. J.-Voluntary morning
prayers which was introduced into
Princeton University two weeks ago
In place of compulsory chapel has
won immense favor with the Prince
ton students. In the first days of its
trial the attendance is even larger than
in the days of compulsory attendance,
which required each student to appear
at morning worship only twice every
week. To some who have noted the
religious tendencies of college stu
dents this condition is surprising.
The voluntary attendance at morn
ing prayers was approved by the
Princeton trustees last Spring very
largely as result of student agitation
in it's favor. The students claimed
there was no advantage in compulsory
worship and they claimed it so insis-
tently as to lead the trustees into what
seemed radical move. It's immediate
success is indicated by the present at
tendance.
Says the Daily Princetonian, the
student mouthpiece: "It is to be ex-
pected that the undergraduates will
come to feel it a part of their life in
Princeton to attend the morning exer-
Uses occasionally, and this hope
seems on a fair way to be fulfilled.
In times past the man who went to
more than the necessary compulsory
services was regarded by his friends
not only as mentally deficient but as
traitor to the cause Of freedom. Now
that freedom has been won mans
presence more than twice a week can
be understood, and with the strength
which ever-hallowed custom will soon
lend we may hope to see the present
excellent attendance maintained and
improved upon"

BACHARACH
ON GAME LAWS

In accordance with the promises
made by Congressman Bacharach
shortly after his election, he has had
under consideration with the authori-
ties at Washington, the matter of a.
change in the Federal Game Laws af-
fectlng the season for black-breasted
plover, golden. plover, jack snipe. Will
son snipe, greater and lesser yellow
legs, teal, widgeon and other specie
of ducks, which make their feeding
grounds within the meadow boundar-
les of this State. In a recent confer
ence with the Chief of the Biological
Survey, it was stated that the U, S.
Supreme Court has set October 18th
as the day on which on which hear
ing will be held concerning the con-
stitutionality of the Federal Migra-
tory Bird law. In case the court de-
cides in favor of the law, the Bureau
plans Immediately to proceed to pre-
pare revised set of regulations un-
der this law, in which an effort will
be made to conform so nearly with
the desires of the sportsmen as can
be done without jeopardizing tie OBJ
ject of the law, which is to protect
from determination our migratory wild
fowl. When this work is taken up
Congressman Baeharach's suggestions
regarding the desires of the sports
men of South Jersey will be given
consideration. Due notice will be CIV
en- through the press when the mat
ter is to be considered so that those
interested may be heard from and the
Bureau supplied with the necessary
fatcs.

PRICES JUMPING

Potato prices are jumping now. In
the city markets the price has leaped
from rs cents a bushel to sixty-five
and seventy cents. Barrel prices are
up about $2.25. The present up-lift
Is due to the falling off of 10 per cent.
from the September forecast. This
shortage holds good all through the
potato sections of the east. The diff
Guilty is that most of the farmers have
disposed of their crops. They are
pretty much in the hands of the big
ity commission men.

new PLANT
FOR BRISCOE

Word comes from Jackson, Michi-
gan, that all arrangements for the
building of the new 100000 plant of
the Briscoe Motor Company have been
concluded and that actual building op-
erations will begin Immediately.
Although the Briscoe Motor Com
pany has already leased every avail
able plant in Jackson, and Is in ad-
dition, conducting negotiations for the
establishment of Canadian factory,
the growth of the Companys business
has been so rapid as to make the new
Jackson factory an Immediately ne
cessity.
The new factory site is located d.
rectly on the main line of the Michi-
gan Central Railroad whereby ideal
shipping conditions are afforded for
the Company's growing production of
Briscoe cars.
The plans of the builders immedi-
ately betray the fact that the new
Briscoe plant has been laid out with
the broadest conception and with inti-
mate regard to substantially and fu-
ture growth. Arrangements will be
such that every item used in the con-
struction of "Briscoe" enters on one
side in the form of raw material, to
leave, at the other end, product fin
ished in every detail and ready for
the hands of the motorist. Everything
in the plant is to represent the most
advanced engineering experience as
applied to the manufacture of auto

READINGCOURSE.
FOR PARENTS
Conducted by the Govern
ment.
IS FREE To ALL.
Effort Is Made to Equip Parents
With the Best Helps
Possible.

Congressman Bacharach through
the columns of this paper calls at
tentibn to the Reading Course for
Parents, conducted by the United
States Bureaus of Education. After
going into the matter with the Com
missioner of Education, the Congress-
man was so much impressed with the
scope of the plan and the great
amount of good that must necessarily
come to those parents who take adj
vantage of the opportunity offered, he
determined to bring it to the attention
of his constituents in the communities
wherein this paper is circulated, with
the suggestion that all parents avail
themselves of the exceptional advan-
tages offered to them by the Depart
ment of Education.
The questions which fathers and
mothers must meet daily in deciding
how best to guide their children are
numerous; it means so much to the
children's future welfare to meet these
Questions in the right way that par
ents everywhere are eager for intel
ligent help from those who have CIV
en- special study to this subject. The
Parents Reading Course, as conduct
ed by the Department Of Education,
will interest and help you with your
| children. The Bureau has tried to
included in its list of subjects a few
books relating to the various phases
OF home life and child life, as we'll as
lsome recent fiction. ses,.
| 1t is therefore the wish of Congress
man Bacharach to cooperate with the
Bureau of Education by interesting
fthe parents in his District in the Read
ling Course, and, If possible, to have
them form Reading Circles in each
community. The Bureau of Education
will give certificate, signed by the
Commissioner of Education, to all who
complete the Parents Reading Course.
In addition, the Bureau will be glad
to give information, upon request,
concerning other books and other
courses.
Those who are Interested in this
course should make application direct
/; to Congressman Bacharach at his
i Washington Office, where the matter
will be given Immediate attention and
application blanks for enrolment
and literature giving full details, will
be mailed to those applying for the
same.
