The members of the Brotherhood of
America of the state of New Jersey who
seeded from the supreme circle had a
right to do SO, according to an opinion
filed on Saturday by Vice Chancellor
Leaning. This decision involves 81 OF
80 subordinate circles that were made
defendants in a suit for an injunction
brought by David w. Doan and others
of the so-called old Supreme Circle,
against Winfield c. Jones and others OF
the new Supreme Circle Of New Jersey.
The object in obtaining the injunction
was to restrain the defendants from
divorcing themselves from the older
body
The present controversy was to deter
mine which of the two organizations is
entitled to enjoy the rights, privileges
and property heretofore in the undis-
putable enjoyment of one body. The
old Supreme Circle was dissolved in Sep.
TENDER, 1914, and receiver was appoint.
ed to administer the assets. This action,
in the judgment of the defendants, left
them without fountain head" They
therefore called special meeting en-
October 30, 1914, and determined to or
ganize and'incorporate Supreme Circle
which they would recognize as their su
preme body, with authority and control
over the Grand Circle OF New Jersey anC
all the subordinate circles.
1t is claimed by the compliments
however, that the proceedings taken al
the special meeting were irregular an(
Intellectual to impair the right of the OLE
Grand Circle to the property and asset
of the order. The further claim wa
made by the old body that the dissolu
ton of the Supreme Circle in no wa,
impaired the status as the fountain
head" or Supreme Circle.
The vice chancellor has decided tina
upon dissolution the organization cease
to exist for all purposes except that G
winding up its affairs, paying debts an
distributing assets.

Random Remarks.

At the meeting Of the township COM
mittee, Thursday evening, DIR. G. H.
Hickman had talk on whether or not
he is entitled to a portion of the money
appropriated for medical attendance of
the poor. This money is divided equally
between the. physicians of the town,
and DIR. Hickman thinks he is entitled
to share OF it. The argument against
him seems to be that he is not practic-
ing physician like the others, in that he
does not pay visits and give attention
at homes, his line being osteopathic
treatment, mainly at his office. DR..
Hickman claims that he gives treat
ment at the homes Of patients. AS there
is a feeling against recognizing osteo-
paths there may De more in that argu-
ment than in any other. II a physician
Of any other school moves to Mount
Holly he does not have to reside here
long before he is included in the division
Of the money. II DR.. Hickman gives
attention to the poor, he is entitled to a
share Of the appropriation, regardless of
the fact that he is an osteopath, as that
school has been recognized by the state
of New Jersey. There are reports that
even some of the physicians who get a
share of the money have refused to re-
spond to calls because there was no pay
in sight. One Of the conclusions said to
have been. reached Thursday evening
was that DIR. Hickman should present
list of the poor people he had attended,
but as the other physicians are not re-
quired to do anything of the sort, this
requirement looks like an especial lab at
DR.. Hickman. If he is entitled to any
part of the money he should have it on
the same basis as the other physicians,
including the chairman of the commit
tee. who is doctor and draws his por-
ton. If DR.. Hickman does not do
anything to entitle him to the money he
should not have it, but there should not
be any more restrictions or requirements
put upon him than upon any other doc
tor.
1.-THE real instigators of the libel in
dictments against the editor might as
well toe the mark and have the trial
held, because, as the matter now stands,
they have not shut Sleeper up, nor de.
stroyed the evidence he has against
them. We are ready and anxious to be
heard in court, which is the proper place
and where it will do the most good, but
if we are not allowed our rights, oil
course we can publish the evidence
-P0tnsyrd NeaOs.
Funny as. it may seem we are with
you, Sleeper, in the above remarks. Yor
have constitutional right to a speedy
trial. County clerk Knight and search
clerk Harris are as anxious to have thu
matter disposed of as you are. But don
forget that it was on the motion of tn
prosecutor of the pleas that the case wa
thrown aside. You have offered to pa,
the costs and you have averred tina
there is no politics in the matter, Sc
why the delay? 1t is for you to insis
that the prosecutor take steps to reliev
you from the odium under which yol
/, now rest-a man under indictment. G,
to it and see that you get your jus
deserts. And if nothing else can b
done, let the floodgates of the testimon
be opened.

Court.

Judge Lippincott put in very busy
day Thursday, and it was nearly six
o'clock when he laid down the gavel
and concluded he had done day work.
Edward Miller was put on trial for
stealing watches and money from a
Beverly woman. Miller was at the wo-
mans house one night, but there was
another man there at the same time.
The latter disappeared, SO did the money
and other property, and as Miller was
the only fellow left the woman decided
he must be the thief. The testimony did
not warrant the charge, however, and
Judge Lippincott allowed Miller to go.
The prisoner had been punished, as he
had been in Jail over month.
Albert Borden pleaded guilty to steal
ing $l49 from Louis Storey. The two
men were employed by Samuel Matthias,
the liYeryman, and Storey had hid his
money in what he thought was safe
place. Soon after doing that he saw
Borden coming from the spot where the
cash had been deposited, and on making
a search he found that the money was
missing. Borden was arrested and he
showed the officers where he. had buried
the cash and it was all recovered. Bor-
den was sent to the state reformatory.
Harry Stewart, of Riverside, pleaded
guilty to assault on his wife, but when
he told his story the court decided that
he should be released, and the man was
allowed to go home.
Samuel Morris, who cut John Nc
Cluskey on the arm, and who was con-
victed the previous week, was fined $780,
George Madden, of Riverside, was
sent to the state home at Jamesburg for
stealing property belonging to his
brother-in-law.
John Sullivan was put on parole. He
was an attendant at the county aims
house and his offence was assaulting an
inmate of that institution.
William Hagaman was put on proba-
tiop with.orders to pay the costs, for as
sault and battery on his wife.

Along The Shore

Because the lowest bid for the boaYtl-
walk improvement was 1000, and the
amount of bonds voted for that Job was
but $4,000, Beach Haven council de-
cided last week to have the plans for the
boardwalk trimmed down to the amount
of the bond issue, and readvertised, the
bids to come in on August 7. On the
same date the bids for the $1,000 worth Of
bonds to build the new dock will be re-
ceiyed.
Beach Haven is to be protected from
sharks hereafter by heavy wire netting
extending 300 feet into the sea along the
entire bathing beach. Robert Engle
president of the town council and owner
of the hotel Engleside, announces that
the cottagers had subscribed to a fund
sufficient to put up the net, and work
will be started at once. 1t will be SO
strong that no sharks or other dangerous
fish can come near the beach,
The plant of the Toms River Chemical
Company, several hundred acres and a
number of buildings, on the south side
of the p. r. r. and west of the Dover
road, has been sold to the Davis Chemi-
cal Company, of 12O Broadway, New
York, and it is reported that they will
manufacture no explosives, but dye
stuffs and drug chemicals.
While there are probably more sharks
than usual at this time of the year, long
shoremen say sharks of large size are
not uncommon in New Jersey waters
but have not been of the variety that
attack men. Last season Andy Brown
landed four in the boat harbor at Barne
gat City measuring from four to six fee
long. A few years ago Captain james
I. Mills set large net just outside thu
inlet mile or so from the beach. Mex
day he found entangled in the ne
eleven fine specimens from four to ter
feet long and thirty holes in the net
that looked as if torpedo had been ex
, ploded against it, showing that abou
that many more had been there an
gone. The fish pounds often have then
in their nets from eight to twelve fee
. long. 1t is no uncommon thing to Sc
them in the bay during the summer
and several who wade out to gathe
CLAIMS can tell you of being close t
some of them.

You will go long way to see better
or more exciting game OF base ball thar
was played between Moorestown and
!, Mount Holly on the grounds of the for
mer on Saturday. The Moorestown club
has beautiful field and fine grand
stand. Everybody takes an interest in
the game. On the grounds there was
booth at which cakes and bread were
sold for the benefit of the club. The
wares were contributed by the ladies of
| Moorestown. Just before the game be-
gan the umpire went into the grand
stand and made this announcement:
Ladies' and gentlemen, the manage
ment desires me to say that as there are
number of ladies present it is hoped
there will be care in the language used !"
AS the majority of the spectators were
from Moorestown it was wondered why
the caution was given and also why it
was addressed to the ladies as well as the
men. However, there was no need for
fear for the order was good. The Moores-
town contingent INDUCED in the usual
roofing" for the home team but the re-
suit was rather sorrowful to them.
Berner, with the adage of TRY, try
again." was in the pitchers box for
Moorestown, and if he had been as eff
fective in the first part of the game as he
was in the last seven innings there
might have been different tale to tell
Larry Gillian led off with base on
balls, but he was caught stealing second,
sliding over the base. McCue got hit
and went home on Masterson's clean hit
for two bases. In the second inning ].
Gillian got hit and was advanced to
second when King was hit by pitched
ball. Lippincott got hit and Jack
Gillian was caught trying to get home.
Larry Gillian got hit and King scored.
Larry stole second and he and Lippin-
colt came home on McCue's second hit
in the game. This ended Mount Hollv's
run getting.
Moorestown did not do anything until
the fourth inning when W. French made
a hit and came home on an error by
Foulks. In the sixth the Moorestown
crowd went wild for it looked as if the
score would be tied if the game was not
won by their side. w. French got hit;
hewas caught attempting to steal second.
Gibbs reached first in safety and MUIR
ply got hit. The next man struck
out but an error allowed E. French to
get to first The bases were now filed
with two men out. To add to the joy of
the home people Forbes seemed to be
unable to locate the plate and he gave
three balls without strike. But Forbes
was equal to the occasion for the next
three balls went directly over the plate
and the batsman was u~sble to connect
with them and he struck out. In the
ninth inning Moorestown again thought !
it saw ray of sunshine. E. French
made hit and stole around to third
base. While Forbes back was turned
to him French stole home and there was
yell of delight. But one man was al /;
ready out, the game was practically won
and the next two batsmen were easily
retired.
Pfiester and McCloskey umpired and
their decisions were very fair.
