S. P. c. A.

The cold snap of the past two days
has called attention to the need for
blanketing horses and the S. P. C. A.
are looking after the matter through
their agent. At the regular monthly
meeting, which was held in the rooms
of the Commercial League Nov. 1s,
there were reports of several cases of
thoughtlessness. A reminder to the
horse owner being sufficient. The So
ciety expressed appreciation of the
kindness of those in the business
places where, through the summer,
buckets provided by the Society have
been used for watering horses. If
persons desire to call attention of ne
elect or cruelty to any animals, Mr..
Fred Riley. 445 Broad ST., will be
glad to respond.

FOR BRYAN and

Burlington. N. j., Nov. 21.-Signifi-
canoe is attached by politicians to a
brief visit which William J. Bryan
will pay to his old friends, James H.
Birch, ST., at the latter's home here
tomorrow morning. Birch, a promi-
-pent carriage manufacturer, was Bry-
ans first political ally in the East
He admitted today that he is anxious
to see. Bryan given an early boom for
the 1920 campaign
when Mr.. Bryan proposed ma
tion-wide prohibition plank for the
next Democratic platform, he an
nounced the issue that will decide the
next presidential election" said Birch
today. Every manufacturer in the
country wiki indorse such a plank as
the most valuable economic issue that
can come before the nation. No man
can oppose it in the light of modern
knowledge and retain his self-respect.
The time has come when we can no
longer make excuses for the ruin
wrought by the rum business"

TRYING TO
HOLD SEAT
'0e0 ~subU

New Brunswick, N. j., Nov. 21.-
While the Boards of Elections in Mid
dlesex, Monmouth and Ocean counties
began today the recount of the bal
lots cast for Congress in the Third
district, it was announced that a new
move for strategical ADVANTAGE would
be made on behalf of Congressman
Thomas j. Scully when the State
Board of Canvassers meets in Tren-
ton Tuesday. Richard V. Lindabury,
who has been added to the corps of
lawyers retained by Mr.. Scully, will
demand that returns made irregular
ly from two of the Ocean county mu-
inequalities be disregarded and that
the boards certificate of election for
the, district be given to Mr. Scully and
not to Robert Carson, his Republican
rival, whose majority on the face of
the returns given out by the county
clerks in the district is IL.
The object of this move is to place
upon Mr.. Carson the onus of making
a contest in the House of Representa-
tVes. If the certificate be granted to
Mr. Carson, Mr.. Scully will have to
assume the burden. Mr.. Scully. it
was said today, already stands to lose
about $4,000 if the result of the re-
count should go against him. The
proposed action by the State board
would not affect the recount already
begun nor will it prevent an appeal
to. the Courts.

HER ELITE
LAUNDRY STAYS

Norristown, Pa, Nov. 21.-Exclu-
slVe soiled linen and exclusive neigh
bors must put up with each other,
Judge Swartz ruled today, to refusing
to restrain Miss Georgina F. Cuthbert
from conducting an exclusive laundry
adjacent to the $4,000 residence of
Miss Marie Lusson, Montgomery ave-
nue. and Thompson street, Ardmore,
who brought equity proceedings
against the washing business of the
former stenographer.
The neighbors called by Miss Lus-
son to bear out her contention that
the laundry was a nuisance all de-
clared that it would destroy the beau
ty of the neighborhood. but were
forced to admit that there might be
no odor or noise connected with it's
running. 1t was also against the re-
strictions placed in the deed of prop
critics sold in the neighborhood, the
objectors argued.
Miss Cuthbert, who relinquished a
job in an Office as a stenographer to
operate the laundry which had been
previously operated by her mother on
a smaller scale, testified that she only
did few washes for wealthy resi-
dents of Lower Merton, for which she
received as high as $12 week and
that her weekly earnings were $50 a
week.
The Court decided that the hanging
of clothes in the yard to dry was not
sufficient to restrain the operation of
the laundry.

MILLvILLE
OIL FEVERISH

Oil experts and magnates continue
to arrive in Millville almost daily. but
it is said that they have as little
chance of getting an interest in the
OIL we'll started by Lewis Steelman as
they did when oil was first evident
several weeks ago. Steelman, who is
at the head of the 100000 corpora
ton, of which his sons, Merton and
Leroy Steelman are the other stock
holders, has thus far offered no stock
for sale.
The pipe which broke off after oil
was struck at the depth of from six
to eight hundred feet, is to be lacked
Up and started down again. 1t is
also reported that two additional
wells will be started in g short time
and that in the next few months
five will be in course of drilling.
The drilling will not stop at the
first vein OF oil, which does not meet
the expectations of what is believed
to be deeper. In going much below it
is hoped that gusher may be reached
or started by shooting.
Mr.. Steelman has now acquired by
purchase in Cumberland and Atlantic
counties about 10000 acres, mostly of
woodland, and has leased about $4,000
additional acres.-Millville Republi-

flower to farmers here today.

try. Early in the season many grow
