Funeral of Mr.. Perinchief.

The funeral services of Rev. Perc,
Perinchief were held in the Mount Holly
M. E. church, SaturdayImorning, in thu
presence of large congregation, abou
hundred ministers being present
With the knowledge that his health wa.
poor and that the end must soon come
Mr.. Perinchief had, as far back as Octo
Der, made all arrangements for his
funeral and they were carried out as
| planned.
Rev. Sanford M. Nichols. superintend-
ent of the Camden district, was in charge
of the services. Prayer was offered by
Rev. John B. Haines, of Ocean Grove,
and the hymn, "Abide with Me, was
sung. Rev. Alfonso Dare, of Haddon-
field, led the singing. Rev. Thomas 8.
Brock, Of Burlington, read portion of
the Scripture, and was followed by Rev.
James w. Marshall, of Ocean Grove,
superintendent of New Brunswick dis
trict. DIR. Marshall said he had been
asked by Bishop Henderson to extend
his love and sympathy to the family.
He is in the west and his engagements
were such as to prevent him from attend
ing the funeral. Bishop Berry also sent
words Of love and coincidence. He had
intended to be present but was prevented
by sudden illness. DR.. Marshall then
paid glowing tribute to the memory of
the deceased clerpvman
Rev. Pennington Corson, of Lambert
vile, was the next speaker and his tri-
butte was one of love and comfort. Rev.
Thomas ]. ]. Wright, of the Mount
Holly church, was the last speaker. His
was probably the most difficult task of
the occasion. So closely had he been
connected with Mr.. Perinchief during
his residence in Mount Holly that the
speaker felt as If he were more closely
connected TO the deceased than by mere
ministerial relations. While he knew
he had lost good friend and adviser it
seemed as if he had parted with a
relative.
AT the close of Mr.. Wright's remarks
Rev. Holmes F. Gravatt, of Camden,
read poem which was q favorite with
the deceased and which the latter had
to have read at the services.
Rev. Charles H. Elder, of Trenton, read
adopted by the ministers of
the Trenton district, and then the
clergymen gathered around the casket
and sang "Shall We Meet Beyond the
River?" The benediction was pro-
by Rev. J. L. Surtees, of Cam
len.
The remains were then taken back to
the residence of Mr.. Perinchief, where
services were held for the family, con-
iucted by Rev. T. j. ]. Wright. Inter-
nent was In the Mount Holly cemetery,
and were conducted by Revs. John B. |
Haines, Holmes F. Gravatt, Thomas s. |
Brock and Everett WAINWRIGHT.
The floral designs were numerous and |
handsome.
The honorary pallbearers were Rev. |
Marshall Owens, of Trenton; Rev. Spen- |
,er K. Moore, of Tuckerton; Rev. Monroe |
Vansant, of Red Bank; Rev. Alfonso
Dare, of Haddonfield; Rev. Herbert J. |
Betting, of Atlantic City; Rev. Thomas

Kill d-Catchinp Cats.


That the value of farm cats Is q de-
batable subject is the belief of prominent
Burlington county CHANGERS, who have
started movement to bring before the
farmers Of New Jersey general discus
sion of the proposed cat tax law advocat-
ed by the Audubon societies. Debates
on the subject will be held this month
in most of the Burlington county
oranges.
Among the most progressive of these
South Jersey farmers are those who de-
clare that the value of cats as, rat and
mice catchers is offset by the great mum
Der of birds the cats slay. The agricul
turists say their observations have con
WINGED them that cat which once form:
the bird-catching habit is thereafter use
less as q rat exterminator, always stalk
ing the tender feathered quarry in pref
erence to hunting the barn rat. Thes'
rural advocates of the cat tax law, which
means the determination of cats il
many localities, declare every farme
would be better off without the BIZ
feline families around his barns and dc
pending instead upon traps and poison
to eliminate the rodents.

Injunction Denied.

Vice Chancellor Leaning heard argu
ment at Camden. on Tuesday, on a rule
! to show cause why the recent sale of the
Richard c. Ridgway farm, near Vincen-
town, to Louis S. Brown for $21, 900,
should not be set aside; also that Jona-
than II. Kelsey, trustee for Ridgway,
be removed and be restrained from dis
posing of any more of the property or
paying any more of Ridgway's debts.
Ridgway said he did not know when
he consented to trusteeship that he
was placing his property out of his con-
troll.
Much testimony was heard, and at it's
conclusion the Vice Chancellor denied
the rule and confirmed the sale, which
completely indicated Mr.. Kelsey IS man.
agement of the estate.
Testimony and argument may be
heard later on the question of remov-
ing Mr.. Kelsey as trustee, but it is safe
to predict that all of his transactions in
this matter will be found to have been
just and honorable.
v. Claude Palmer represented Mr..
Kelsey on Tuesday; Samuel X. Robbins
appeared for Ridgway.
The Vice Chancellor's opinion in this
case was as follows:
/ am satisfied that preliminary in
junction restraining the contamination
of the sale made by the trustee cannot
be properly awarded under the proofs
now before this court. To justify pre-
liminary injunction the threatened in
jury must not only be irreparable in it's
nature but compliments rights must
not be in substantial doubt. The rule
has become too firmly established to be
disregarded.
Whether at final hearing relief can be
awarded against the future operation of
the deed of trust need not now be con-
sidered; but the affidavits now on file in
behalf of defendants not only controvert
any claim upon the part of complainant
that the deed of trust was executed by
him under improper or undue influence
or with an inadequate understanding on
his part OF its purpose and effect, but dis
close, II true, that the sale of the farm
was fully acquiesced in by complainant
and that the sale was not for an I'M
reasonable amount. In view of these
proofs preliminary relief cannot be sup
ported.
Nor do l think under the existing
proofs the rights of creditors can be at |
this time properly overlooked One i'm |
portant object of the trust deed was the |
protection OF these creditors, and the sale |
now in question was made for their
benefit.
/ feel obliged to deny the application |
for preliminary injunction.

DON'T Kill the Birds

That birds stand between the Ameri-
can people and starvation is the as
sertion of the New Jersey Fish and
Game Commission, which is making
an urgent appeal to the farmers of the
state for cooperation in the protec-
ton and care of their feathered
friends. Permit the determination of
the birds by the removal of the protec-
ton now afforded them by stringent
laws, and in one year the country will
face the greatest economic problem
of history, says the commission. With
out the birds our forests would be
swept as by blast of fire. Destroy
the balance of nature by removing the
birds as check upon insect life and
give the insects two months start in
spring, and not crop would be grown
in field or garden.
Not only should farmers be ever on
the alert against violators of the game
laws-for the experience of the Com
mission shows that the culprit who
will shoot protected game out of seas
on will just as readily STAY insect and
song birds-but they should encourage
the breeding of birds in their own To-
calities by constructing bird houses
about the farm buildings. The value
of this plan, the Commission contends,
cannot be over-estimated. Many of
the species of birds that will nest in
these artificial homes subsist entirely
upon insects of their larvae. They are
especially active as insect destroyers
during the nesting season, when their
young are calling for an extra supply
of food. To cite the case of the flicker
or woodpecker alone: This bird feeds
largely at this season upon ants and
plant lice that are so destructive to
gardens and orchards;and more than
5000 of these ants, devoured in one
day, have been taken from the stom-
ach Of single bird.
From the economic standpoint alone
the building of bird houses is the best
investment for crop protection that
the farmer can make, even at hum
dred times their cost, says President
Ernest Napier, of the Fish and Game
Every farm, he says,
should have battery of bird houses,
built along lines suggested by the
United States Board of Agriculture in
its official bulletin on the subject; and
these bird houses should have as
scrupulous care and attention as any
other part of the farm equipment.

Setter Club Plans for Field Trials.

The English Setter Club will again
hold its field trials at Medford, on April
9 and 10. There will be two open classes
for English and Irish settlers and
pointers, and two classes for English set
tiers, for the members only. The club
has been unable to secure Hungarian
partrige owing to the war conditions but
has secured the Bob White" quail, and
large number of these game birds will
be liberated. These trials have become
quite an event among dog lovers, and
are most interesting. Cups and medals
are offered by the club and large
number of special prizes are offered by
enthusiasts. The dogs run in braces and
a number of birds are liberated on the
field the afternoon before the trials begin
and as each brace starts over the course
two birds are liberated on the ground
where the test of bird work Is had.
The course is usually about one mile;
no one is allowed to follow the dogs but
the handlers and the judges, In the
field where the birds have been liberated
arrangements are made for the public to
get full view of the finish. The trials
continue for two days; tents are erected
for the comfort of the public and the dogs;
lunch and hot coffee are served, and
everybody has good timer
Anyone desiring to enter dogs or OBJ
tain any information can do so, by ad.

Air Rifles.

Complaint having been made to the
Township Committee of the use of air
rifles by boys, that body took the matter
/ up and decided to have the police Of
ficers use efforts to have the practice
stopped. This is not the province of the
Township Committee especially, as there
is law governing the subject which
any citizen may have enforced. But
the Township Committee appears to be
the body to which every fellow with
a complaint runs, and the members are
always ready to aid in abating nuisances
or practices which are dangerous.
In Camden one day last week little
boy was shot in the face SO close to his
eye that it was thought he would lose
the sight. In another column is noted
a similar accident to boy in Whining
ton, whose parents are well known here
and the result in that case seems to be
more serious than in the other.
Chapter 1856 of the laws of 1918 provide
as follows: 1T shall not be lawful for
any person or person, corporation or COR
porations, to manufacture, sell, barter,
exchange, hire, loan, give. buy or have
in possession or use or shoot any air gun,
spring gun, or pistol, or other weapon of
similar nature in which the pro-
polling force is spring or air and eject.
ing missile smaller than three-eighths
of an inch in diameter, with sufficient
force to injure the person." Any person
violating this law is liable to punish
ment for misdemeanor.
By this it will be seen that it Is not
only unlawful to sell air rifles but it Is
also against the statutes for any one to
have one In possession, and boy found |
with such weapon is liable to be pun
ished by fine or imprisonment. Not
only are these rifles dangerous to life
and limb but they are destructive to
Windows have been broken |
these guns. In one of the churches q |
recent examination showed that there |
had been shots fred inside the edifice,
and the indentations made by the shot |
or pebbles were plainly visible. The |
provision in the law which designates |
the size of the shot to be used makes it |
come within the range of a gun which |
must have powder as the prOpelling |
power, and to have one of those the |
carrier must have q gunner's license, |
but he cannot carry an air rifle even II |
he is able to get license, as the use Of |
the latter is strictly prohibited. The |
strange part of all this is that parents
are willing to let their children have for |
instruments that are abso- |
lutely dangerous.
While the Township Committee is |
anxious to have this nuisance abated, |
and will use its endeavors to that end, 1t |
still remains with the citizens to do !
their share and where a youngster is |
seen with an air rifle he should be given |
a lesson that would not soon be forgot
ten.

Harry w. Quicksall is ill at his home
on Madison avenue. 1t is thought he
had stroke of paralysis on Saturday.
Recent visitors to the Four Mile
Colony were J. F. Martin, commissioner
of charities and corrections of Virginia,
and DR.. w. F. Drury, superintendent OF
Petersburg, Va, hospital for the insane.
They had been specially sent to look in
to every detail of the colony work, as
they thought the State of Virginia
wanted to work along similar lines.
They were greatly pleased with all they
saw, and were very much surprised that
SO much had been accomplished. and so
well, in such short period of time.
The Court of Errors and Appeals yes
terday disapproved of the plan of the
State Water Supply Commission to
issue 81 ,000, 900 worth of bonds to acquire
the Wharton tract in South Jersey for
water supply for central and south New
Jersey. The State Constitution pro-
hibits the issue Of bonds in excess of
$100,0 except for purposes of war or to
repel invaders. Justice Garrison said
the legal question disposed of by the
Court of Errors in no way involves the
propriety of the purchase. "Our sole
concern is that a right reserved to the
people by their Constitution shall be
secured to them by their Courts" the

Sunday was the closing day of the
conference year of the Mount Holly
Methodist Episcopal church. The at
tendance at all the services of the day
were unusually large. The collection in
the Sunday school on Sunday amounted
to $70.41. The past year has been very
successful one. Rev. Thomas J. J.
Wright leaves today for Atlantic City
to attend the annual conference of the |
M. E. church. and takes with him the |
best report on finances that has been |
made from the Mount Holly church in
the past fifteen years. The Duplex sys-
tenn adopted year ago has given excel
lent results, more money being received |
for current expenses than in previous
years, and the benevolence larger than
in the past fifteen years. The amount
raised for benevolences was 1896; for
$139; for hospitals. $40. Dur
ing the past year Mr.. Wright has baptised
% persons, and received into the church
10; he has performed % weddings and
officiated at AZ funerals. Mr.. Wright ex-
poets to return for another year as re-
luested by the quarterly conference and
will not consider the proposition of MAX
ng change unless its the desire of the
Bishop, which is hardly likely.
