Robin Hood.

Everything is working out splendidly
for the presentation of Robin Hood at 8
May festival at the court house grounds
tomorrow afternoon at 4.30 o'clock by
the children of Miss Mary Flynn's Jun
ior Chautauqua.
The following story of Robin Hood
may prove to be interesting:
Robin Hood, outlaw of Sherwood For
est, and the sheriff of Nottingham had
long been enemies. Because of the tricks
Robin and his men had played on the
sheriff, and because of the price on Rob-
ms head, the sheriff was very anxious
to capture Robin.
One day the queen of England came
up to visit Nottingham, and in honor of
her visit the sheriff decided to hold a
May day fete on Sherwood green. He
sends his herald to call the village
people together, to dance for the queen.
The play opens as the herald reaches
the green. AT the sound of his horn the
towns people come flocking from all di-
rectlons to hear the proclamation of the
May festival. While waiting for the
queen and sheriff the villagers entertain
themselves with songs and dances. In
a little while horn is heard in the dis
lance, and the queen and her court
ladies and the sheriff and his guard ar
rive. The queen is crowned as queen of
the May by her attendant, and her
court ladies dance stately dance. Now
the villagers dance and the sheriff's
guard drill and play games to entertain
the queen. She is quite delighted and
wishes that it all might last longer. AS
she rises to go Robin Hood, who has
been watching the sports farther back
in the forest, steps before the queen and
asks if she would care to see more sports.
No one imagines that Robin, the out
law, would dare come out of Sherwood
forest, with the sheriff so near at hand
and this stranger is hailed as an unex-
pected addition to the pleasures of the |
day. Robin sounds his bugle and at |
once out step his bowmen with Friar |
Tuck in the rear leading Maid Marion |
on her horse. Marion dances for the |
queen and the bowmen perform marvel |
Gus feats and the queen is greatly pleas |
ed. She says to Robin, Tell me your
name, that / may speak of you to the |
king After Robin secures her promise |
to let him and his men and Maid Mar |
ion return to the forest, he says 81 stand !

capture Robin, but the queen commands |
that Robin and his band shall return to |

The festivities are ended, and all 60

Base Ball.

Mount Holly opened the season or
Saturday with game with the Sham.
rock, OF Burlington. 1t was not an ex-
traordinarily brilliant contest but it was
enjoyed by those who witnessed it.
Forbes, who was the Jonah of the Mount
Holly club in game last year, was in
the box for the home team and he did
good work, allowing his opponents but
four hits and striking out six men. But
Everham, the Burlington pitcher, was
not slow by any means and he gave
Mount Holly only five hits and struck
out five men. Forbes sent two men to
base on balls. He also got two of the
five hits made by Mount Holly. Foulks,
Mount Holly's first baseman, made a
double play unassisted. The home team
got its two rms in the first two innings.
After that there was nothing doing.
Mount Holly was not strong at bat. In
the seventh inning with two men on
base, the batters did not bring the two
runs in, but this was due to the fact that
the game was won and there was no
special effort to run the score higher.
Following is the score:

Riyerton.

very delightful tea was given by the
Suffrage Section of the Porch Club, of
Riverton, last Tuesday. The Club
House presented most attractive APP
pearance with its profusion of Spring
flowers, arranged by the chairman OF the
art section. There was present large
number of guests from the various
suffrage associations of Burlington
county to meet DIR. George Earle
Raiguel, of Philadelphia, who gave three
convincing talks on democracy.
The occasion combined the usual suf-
frage May-day celebration and also Jer-
sey day, in accordance with Governor
Fielder's proclamation. The following
resolution was adopted:
Whereas, four million women citizens OF
the States Of Arizona, California, Colorado
Idaho, Illinois, Kansas Montana Nevada
Oregon, Utah, Washing ton and Wyoming viii
be entitled to vote for the next President and
| Vice President of the United States, thereby
greatly increasing the power and influence OF
those States in the nation we believe it will
be greatly to the advantage of the State q
New Jersey, and the other non-sufragS
States, to grant similar rights to their women
citizens, and
| Whereas at the first election at which ths
question OF Woman Suffrage was put befor,
the voters OF New Jersey, 133, 282, or forty-twC
| per cent OF those voting, declared themselves
In favor OF the proposition while in thirteen
cOuutIes bne percentage OF the favorable vote
ranged from forty-three to fifty-one per cent.
thus demonstrating that there is strons
sentiment in favor Of the extension of politica
rights to women, therefore be it
| Resolved, that this meeting call upon thu
| delegates elected to the National Conventions
OF the various political parties, from New
Jersey, to vote in favor of a plank in tn,
national platforms, stating in effect. "Thi
Party favors the extension of the suffrage Il
the women OF this country"
| An appeal was made for Iowa, thu

The Village Nurse.

. While the majority of the citizens o
Mount Holly know there is village
nurse ready to lead assistance at any
time, how many are there who have
knowledge Of the good work she is doing
and what struggle it is for the
Woman's League to keep the nurse
: here2 In 1905 the League decided to
engage nurse. The compensation mus
be paid entirely by subscriptions and a
system was inaugurated by which the
town people were asked to make dona-
tions. The money came by spasms
and while the income was barely suffi-
Gent to keep the nurse living here it did
suffice, but there wasan irregularity and
lack of system that made the whole
affair somewhat irksome. Other towns
successfully maintained village nurse,
and the question arose why Mount Holly
could not do the same.
So the League has decided to follow
the course pursued by neighboring towns
and have one day each year in which to
solicit contributions for what is very
worthy object. The first of these days
will be Wednesday of next week, when
collectors will visit the districts assigned
to them and receive whatever the citi-
zens may feel disposed to contribute.
This will not be a'weekly or a monthly
occurrence. 1t will be once year, the
same as is now the custom with the
Hospital and the Children's Home,
The work that is done by the nurse
is remarkable and that she does not re-
ceive princely salary goes without say
ing. She visits. all classes-those who |
can pay her and those who cannot, and |
the latter is by far the larger part of the
work. She has entered homes where the
sanitary conditions have been such as to
cause the stoutest heart to shudder, but !
she has taken hold and cleansed and
purified, doing work that should have
been performed by stronger hands. The
present nurse is not afraid to change the
most deplorable conditions. Her work
