ATLANTIC COUNTY RATABLES
EXCEED LAST YEAR.
Nearly One Hundred and Seventeen
Millions Given As Value.

1t is understood that the total rat
ables for Atlantic County which have
just been certified to the County
Board of Taxation will exceed those
of last year. With three assessing
districts yet to come in and exclusive
of the second class railroad property
the ratables are SIG, 92S, 1854.
In giving out the figures for the
county, Commissioner H. Starr Gid
dings declared he wished it to be IN
derstood that they have not as yet
certified them. In going over the
amounts in some of the districts
they have discovered mistakes made
by the assessors, and it is thought
that when all of the figures have
been certified there will be a consid-
cradle difference in the totals.
It is impossible to compare the
figures of this year with last owing
to the fact that the returns from the
Second Ward of Absecon, Mortified
and Brigantine had not been hand
ed in to the County Board. Also the
amount of the railroad tax, which is
to be added to the different districts
has not been forwarded by the State
Board.
The figures for the districts which
have been certified to the County
BOARD follow

PLEASANTVILLE MOURNS
PROF. HARTMAN'S DEATH.

All Pleasantville was shocked to
learn of the death of Prof. Thomas
w. Hartman, which occurred at New
field on Friday evening, july Both.
Prof. Hartman had been Supervising
Principal of the public schools of
Pleasantville for several years, and i'll
health kept gradually getting the bet
ter of him until he felt it necessary
to resign his position at the end of the
school year recently closed. Only a
few weeks ago he removed to New
field to be among relatives, and where
he hoped through retirement to be
able to regain his health. But the
disease was too deep seated and the
end came sooner than anyone had ex-
pected. Prof. Hartman gained a
warm spot in the hearts of all our
people by his exemplary Christian
life and his lovable disposition. He
was an exceptionally able instructor,
and to his leadership is due in a great
measure the high position schools
have attained. He was a consistent
member of Wesley NJ. E. Church. and
his pastor, Rev. J. w. Nicholson, con-
Quoted the funeral services in the Bap-
fist Church at Newfield on Tuesday.
He was also a member of Excelsior
Council, No. 231, Jr. o. U. A. NJ, and
a number of the members of this
lodge attended the obsequies, as well
as several other citizens of the city.
F"The Lord gave, and the Lord hath
taken away; blessed be the name of
the Lord

DISCONTINUE COLOGNE
AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL.
New Ones Established at Germania
and Pomona.

At a recent meeting of the Voca-
tional Board of Education, it was de-
cided that the agricultural school
which has been conducted at Cologne
during the past year will be discon-
tinued, and in its place will be estab-
lished two schools; one at Germania
and the other at Pomona. This action
was found to be necessary when a pre-
liminary survey of Egg Harbor and
Galloway Townships developed the
Young men in the vicinity of Farm
School" that desire to attend the agri-
cultural school and were prohibited
from doing so heretofore on account of
the distance.
The new location at Germania will
not only take care of that portion of
the old territory previously covered,
but will also make it more convenient
for students to attend from Port Re-
public. Unionville and the surrounding
country. The Pomona location will al
so bring the school in closer touch
with the students in and about that
section.
By the establishing of two new To-
cations one more full time day school
has been established in the county to
help take are of the increased enroll
ment of the coming vear. The Pomo-
ma school will cover that territory
known as Pomerania, Brigantine,
Doughty Station and Cologne. A full
enrolment at both locations has been
assured. For the present, Prof. J.. E.
Schaefer, who has had charge of the
Cologne school, will be in charge of
both sections. conducting classes in
each location one-half dav each.
Another important action was the
selection of Pleasantville as the loca-
tion of the vocational school which is
to take charge of the Eastern section
of the county, making it more conve-
nient for students who have EXPRESSED
a desire to attend from Absecon, Far
mington and the Shore Road, as well
as the territory recently covered by
the school at Bargaintown. The loca-
ton at Pleasantville, however, is de-
pendent upon the securing of a suita-
BILE building for the work. Evening
classes are planned, and undoubtedly
will be conducted at Bargaintown.
Through the location of the new
sites for the Vocational Schools and
with the addition of one new location.
agricultural education will be placed
within the reach of a larger number of
residents of the county.

LIMBS FRACTURED WHEN
MOTOR VEHICLES COLLIDE

Frank Palmer, a local insurance
man, who lives at Seaview with his
wife and family, was struck to the
ground on Wednesday whilesriding on
his motorcycle, by a large automobile
owned and driven by H. Solberg, a
wealthy retired capitalist, of Lawn
dale, Pa. Mr.. Palmer's arms and
legs were badly fractured.
The cyclist was going west on
Washington avenue, and the automo-
bile approached on the left side Of
the road. He saw his inability to
avoid collision too late, and when the
machines struck he was thrown heav-
lily to the road. The motorcycle was
completely demolished, and the ma
chine had to be towed to a garage.
Broken bones were set by a local
physician, after which Mr.. Palmer
was taken to his home by Raymond
G. Ireland in an automobile.

LITTLE TOT INJURED
BY BIG TOURING CAR.

While attempting to cross the road
in front of a large touring car owned
by Max Myers, of Baltimore, who is
spending the summer at Atlantic
City, Eugene Kiger, three-year-old
nephew of Judge Shinn, was struck
by the machine and severely injured.
The child was placed in another ma
chine and rushed to the Office of a
physician and examination showed
that he was suffering from internal
injuries.
The child was with Judge Shinn's
son, Clifton, Jr., when the accident
occurred. Those who witnessed it de
clared that it was not the fault Of
the chauffeur of the car who was
travelling at a low rate of speed. Mr..
Myers at once surrendered himself
and his chauffeur, j. E. Sheridan, to
the police. The chauffeur was held
under $500 bail to await the outcome
of the boys injuries.

PECULIAR CASE CAUSES
STIR IN PLEASANTyILLE
Charges and Counter Charges Galore
Are Hurled.

Pleasantville was thrown in q
state of excitement this week over
the arrest of Mrs. A. W. Boss and
Thomas F. Cunningham, Jr., and the
developments which followed in rap
id-ire order.
The arrest of Mrs. Boss, who is said
to have left her husband and two
children to flee with young Cunning
ham, followed an investigation made
by the latter's father. Several
months ago he sent his son to look
after large interests he had in Balti-
more. While there he made the &C
quaintance of Mrs. Boss, who had
brought proceeding to secure a di-
vorce from her husband, A. W. Boss.
They became very intimate, but the
fathers suspicious were not aroused
until his son drew on him for over
$1,000 for expenses"
An investigation was started and
it was learned that the youth had
spent this money in buying jewelry
for Mrs. Boss. The irate father then
position at Absecon, but Mrs. Boss
came also and the pair have been liv-
ing together quietly in P~leasantville
for several weeks until arrested last
Sunday. In their possession were
found pawn tickets to the amount Of
$1,000.
Owing to certain statements made
by Cunningham and his peculiar &C
tons at the hearing, he was examin-
ed by four doctors who reported that
he undoubtedly had a mental condi-
ton and recommended that he be kept
under observation for at least FIVE
months.
The pair are now lodged in the
County Jail at Mays Landing since
neither could secure the bail neces-
sary for their release. They have
waived their right of trial by jury
and will appear before Judge Shinn
in the Court of Special Sessions tfH
Saturday morning.
