Fire at Bridgeboro.

Tuesday afternoon the village of
Bridgeboro appeared to be in fair way
towards destruction. Fire started in a
dwelling in the centre of the village and
the flames quickly spread to barn, and
then on to four houses, the roof of a
garage and the kitchen of the Star hotel.
1t was half-past two o'clock when the
fire was discovered and there was high
wind blowing. This, taken in connec-
ton with the fact that Bridgeboro is
without proper fire-fghting facilities,
made it necessary to summon outside
aid and word was sent to nearby towns.
There was prompt response and the
flames were kept near the place they
started until two steamers from Burling-
ton arrived and soon extinguished the
fire.
1t is stated that conservative estimate
of the loss is about So, 900. The dwellings
of William Dunn and Philip Stumpf, a
portion of the bottling establishment of
the latter, the barn and outbuildings of
the Star Hotel were completely destroyed
and the homes of Frank Fenton and
William Woodington and number of
dwellings were only saved from destruc-
ton after the hardest kind of struggle.

for his act, and he certainly did not
make friends with the liquor interests
by so voting. Sleeper says, I'VE
Methodists believe in the principle of
and forgiveness but with
the record of Peacock before him he adds
"but we will have to be shown This
is forgiveness with vengeance. AS
we said last week. if Peacock had voted
against the bill Sleeper's columns W ould
not have been long enough to contain
the denunciation thatpossiblyw already
prepared. But the Assemblyman voted
in manner contrary to the wishes and
expectations of the Palmyra editor, and
his quotation of forgiveness is already
out of place. Sleeper may not be able
to find any one in his particular locality
who believes that Assemblyman Pea
cock voted conscientiously, proba bly, be-
cause he does not want to discover any
of that class, but if he will come up this
way he can find many who think that
the vote was honest and conscientious,
and among this class will be found those
who will oppose him for future political
preferment. Come, Sleeper, be good
Methodist and Christian. Judge not
because of personal feeling.

Limitation Not Applicable.

A most unusual point of law was de.
cided last week in an opinion handed
down by the Supreme Court in the case
of Grace Fryer and her father William
s. FRYER, of Mount Holly, against the
Mount Holly Water Company. The
action is one to recover damages from
the water company for an illness occas-
toned by it's failure to furnish pure water
to the plaintiff and the members Of his
family.
Several years ago typhoid broke out in
Mount Holly and Grace Fryer was one
to contract the disease. After two years
her father, through Attorneys Davis &
Davis, of the Camden bar, brought suit
to recover damages for the loss of ser
vices of his daughter. Attorneys for the
water company alleged that the statute
of limitation would be bar because OF
the lapse of time provided by this act.
Justice Bergen in his opinion decides
that an action brought by father to re-
cover for the loss of the services OF his
daughter, and the expenses incurred in
restoring her to health, is not an action
accruing for injuries to persons caused
by the wrongful act, neglect or default OF
any person and that the limitation de-
scribed in the statute is not q bar to such
an action.
| With this preliminary step cleared
away the damage suit against the COM
pany on behalf of the injured parent
will now be prosecuted to its conclusion.

Political Notes.

The appointment of Jonathan III. KeI-
lington county, was confirmed by the
Senate on Wednesday.
Nobody was surprised when the reap
pointment OF Richard P. Hughes as
member Of the Burlington County
Board OF Taxation was announced.
There was not any other candidate for
the position and if there had been he
would not have had any show If recent
occurrences are to be taken as an ex-
ample. Richard is the head and should
ers of the, Democratic party in this
county.
A death which attracted statewide at
tention was that of David 8. Crater,
secretary of the State of New Jersey.
Mr.. Crater was attacked with heart dis
ease while out in the severe snowstorm
in New York. on Saturday. Deceased
was prominentin Democratic circles and
held the Office of Surrogateo of Monmouth
county from 1882 until 1912, when he
was appointed Secretary of State.
Women are getting some of the privi-
leges they have been asking for and
seem to be in fair way to get more Gov
ernor Fielder has signed the bill allow
ing women to have two watchers at the
polls at the election on the Constitution
al amendment on the question of giving
women the right to vote. This is all
right. 1t has been the prerogative of
the women to watch the men for many
years, and some of them have deemed it
their right to watch some of their own
sex, so that the law which has been APP
proved simply legalizes what has been a
custom.
Another law which is under consider
alton is that which takes from the cleo
ton statutes the necessity for the voter
to give his age when being registered.
This law is undoubtedly intended as an
act of courtesy for the women, as it will
only require the answer lover q years of
age" but the men had to be included to
clear the act from special legislation.
The editor of the Palmyra Meas comes
back in a feeble manner on our remarks
of his criticism of Assemblyman Pea
cocks vote on the local option bill and
justifies his position by saying the idea
that "Peacock's vote was not sincere
was not original, but he found no one
else with a different opinion That
was not the attitude at first taken.
Everything indicated an original"
idea, now he hides behind others. Then
Sleeper says: xviii editor Kingdom
make definite and explicit statement
that he personally believes it was an en-
firelv sincere and conscientious action?'
Kingdom will try to do that, and will
base that belief on conversations had
with the Assemblyman, whose vote was
entirely on the line OF his talk with us.
If further proof were needed it would
possibly not be out of place to refer to
the fact that it was the minority report
Of Peacock which got the bill to vote;
that he offered bill to let the people |
have ballot on the subject in Novem-
Der and it was voted down; that he voted
IS he did with letters from $500 voters
skiing him to cast his ballot against the
ill and a petition with only 500 signers
skiing him to vote for it, He had all the
hances in the world for an excuse to
ote against local option but he cast his
allot the other way. What has he

INFORMATION EASY TO GIVE
Daddy Happily In Possession Of
knowledge as to Where One Vac
uum Was Located.

The good man had just been in
formed by the only person who could
possibly possess the information that
he hadn't an ounce of sense, that he
had never had an ounce of sense, and
that there was not the remotest
chance that he ever would have an
ounce of sense.
Having been assured on these
points, the good man turned to his
paper, only to be interrupted by his
young son and heir:
Father" asked the boy, what is
a vacuum and where can | find one?"
my boy" replied the good man, ''if
we are to assume that your mother is
qualified to speak on the subject, l
possess the only real vacuum in the
neighborhood and, for your further in
formation, it is situated just between
my collar and the glossy open space
where | used to grow hair"
You mean your dome?"
Yes, my son. that is the family vac
uum."

ModernizIns the Roundup.

Each year seems to give the auto
mobile new hold on life. The war
brought it to the forefront in a new
field. The soldier of the present day
seldom makes long forced marches
like Sherman's march to the sea. He
travels by motor car AS a result, the
automobile casualty list is tremen-
dous; the average life of a ca in the
battle lines is estimated at thirty days.
But it is not only the war zone that
has lost part of its picturesqueness
through the use Of the automobile,
the latter has begun to rob the an
nual cattle roundup of some of it's
thrills by replacing the horse. This
year has seen the ubiquitous car with
a cowboy at it's wheel on our western
prairies discouraging the cattle from
attempts to escape from the ever-nar.
rowing circle in the roundup. Many a
steer which Las given a COW horse a
run must feel disconnected when II
bucks up against the four-wheeled
steed.-Wall Street Journal.
