DEATH OF MRS. M. G. BENNETT

The many friends of Mrs. Mary G.
Bennett were grieved to hear of her
death on Monday at her home at 20
East Edgewater avenue, after an i'll
ness of several months. She was the
widow of the late Colonel Orson W
Bennett, a distinguished officer of the
Civil War, to whom she was married
at st. Paul, Mimi, in 1880, and was in
her 61st year. She was born at De-
catur, Michigan, January 18th, 1855,
and was the oldest daughter of John
R. G. and Marian Tarbell. She was
educated at Detroit, Mich, Female
Seminary, and studied music at the
New York Conservatory. Since COM
ing to Pleasantville Mrs. Bennett has
made a large number of friends, being
a member of the Women's Research
Club and an organizer of the Civic
Club of Pleasantville, and a member of
st. Marks Episcopal Church. She
was a brilliant musician, and conduct
ed a large class in instrumental mu-
sic.
The funeral services were conducted
here at 8 o'clock Wednesday evening
by Rev. H. NJ. Kieffer, a former rec
tor of st. Marks, with interment in
the Westminster Cemetery, Philadel-
phia, alongside her husband, who died
in Philadelphia in 1904, at 10 o'clock
on Thursday morning.

The above is an excellent likeness
of Prof. H. w. Sinner, who was re-
Gently elected to the position of Su-
pervising Principal of the Pleasant
vile schools. Prof. Sinner is 80
years of age. He was educated in
the public schools, and afterwards
was graduated from Perkiomen Sem
mary, Pennsburg, Pa, in 1900, and
from Muhlenberg College, Allen
town, Pa, in 1903. He holds a Penn
sylvania State Teachers Permanent
Certificate and a New Jersey Perman-
ent Supervisors Certificate. After
one years experience in the public
schools of Macungie, Pa, he became
Supervising Principal of the public
schools of Freemansburg, Pa, which
position he held one year. Then he
accepted the Vice-Principalship of the
schools of Northampton, Pa, and af-
ter two years service in this capacity
he was advanced to the Principalship
of the Northampton High School and
continued for six years at the head
of this institution. Two years ago
he became Supervising Principal of
the Woodstown : Pilesgrove Public
Schools, which office he now relin-
pushes to come to Pleasantville.
An exchange contains the letter of
resignation of his present position,
and adds: "While the Board regretted
very much to part with Mr.. Sinner,
they felt that they ought not to stand
in the way of such a handsome pro-
motion. He came here two years ago
from Pennsylvania, being elected owe
a large number of applicants for the
position of Supervising Principal, and
he has made good in the difficult po-
sition he had to fill, and has steadily
grown in favor, both in his genial and
frank manner and in his good work,
much of which has been of a con-
structive character, and the Board will
be fortunate if they can secure some
one to continue the work on the foun-
dation he has laid"

STATE GETS FAMOUS FLAG
Colonel Proctors "Rattlesnake" Now
Reposes in the State Library
at Harrisburg, Pa.

Greensburg, Pa.-The famous rattle
snake flag has been transferred from
the vault of the Merchants and Farm
ers' bank in Greensburg to the state
library, Harrisburg, to take its place
among the relics of American wars.
The rattlesnake flag belonged to
Col John Pr2ctor's Independent battal-
ion of Westmoreland county. 1t was
made in 1775 and was carried in the
Revolution. Samuel Craig, Sr., who,
with his three sons, John, Alexander
and Samuel, Jr., fought in Proctor's
battalion, was the color bearer.
On Colonel Proctors death the flag
passed to the next senior officer, and
so on to the last survivor, Gen. Alex
ander Craig, with whom it remained
until 1914, when it was bequeathed
by his great-grand-daughter, Jane
Maria Craig of New Alexandria, to the
state library at Harrisburg.

Belgian Newspaper Man Tells Of
Escape Into Holland.
Humble Heroes Who Make a Living In
Expedlting Passage Of Those Who
Wish to Go to Holland
Trying Night Watch.

Rotterdam.-Willy r. Benedictus, a
w5ll-known Belgian newspaper writer
has arrived here after a daring trip
through the German lines guarding the
frontier of Belgium.
To get out he employed one OF the
men who are making a living by the
periIous business Of eXpediting the
passage Of those wishing to leave the
conquered kingdom. They arrived at
a hamlet on the frontier late at night
"The man at whose house we put up
is one of the humble heroes who dur
ing the war have sprung up from the
most unexpected quarters" said
Benedictus.
Before the war he might have been
something Of a poacher, but since the
summer he has been of incompatible
use to his country in allowing hun
dreds of young men to leave Belgium
and join the army. He began by TAX
ing me for a spy on account of my
beard. Beard, he said, may be false
But my guide gave him the password.
That satisfied him, and we waited
what the night was to bring us.
"Three other young men were to
pass also; one of them, Russian, had
waited for I've days in the peasants
little house.

to run down one of the cliffs, cross the
road and climb into the other steep
bank. But easier said than done!"
"For hours we crouched behind our
cliff awaiting the signal, which our
leader was in no haste to give. | can
not answer for the others, but for my
part | was growing nervous. 1t is
known that the sentries fire at once if
they see anyone And their shouting
rather got on my nerves.
"There were two of them-two
landsturm men-walking to and fro
on the road. We saw clearly every

full, and the big men guarding an in

"Tsn't the full moon drawback for
us?' asked our guide. by no means
if there were no such moon you could
rush into the sentry's arms, as young
fool did last week!'

the sentries were hundred yards
from each other. 1t struck half-past
two at a neighboring church; the SEN
tries exchanged, or rather shouted, the
password; the signal was given. and
off we darted. We threw ourselves
down the cliffs and the ten yards of
the road were covered in two strides
But the climbing up the other cliff was

not of the difficulty. Something pushed

Consequently the British fleet lies

II is ready. There is no question
about that II is in the pink of condi-

By years of labor and the expendi-

the strongest naval positions in the

overhangs the landlocked harbor he
had an excellent view of the great hid

When the American ship was at
Kirkwall there were more than sew

under the lee of the island of Hoy.
Forty of these were dreadnaughts and
battle cruisers. Thirty were older bat

In other parts of the bay were fleets
of warships of other types.
To the left of the battleship feet
was an armada of more than 100
wicked looking destroyers, while still
farther to the left lay fleet of armed

transports. Behind the dreadnaught
fleet, built out from the sandy shore,
was a long wharf with several small
buildings upon it. To this wharf a
fleet OF submarines was tied side by
