Governors Proclamation for
Red Cross

Governor Edge on Sunday issued
che following proclamation calling
upon the state to support the Red
Cross campaign:
1t is of supreme Importance that
New jerseys civil army be completely
modified and prepared for the next
great war fund drive in support of the
American Red Cross.
Therefore, /, Walter E. Edge. Gov.
ernor of the State of New JERSEY. do
issue this, my proclamation, desig.
mating the period between Nav 20 and
May ~, already set aside by the Presi-
dent of the United States for nation.
VIDE observance, as Red Cross Week.
New Jersey recognizes that it is a
privilege and duty to raise not mere
~ our allotted quota, but more than
our quota IN this countrywide cam
palgn In support of the Red Cross at
home and abroad. No other arm of the
Government at war is more trusty or
essential. None is closer to our hearts
than this mighty instrumentality of
kindly mercy which mollifies the
horrors OF war by succoring the wound
ed and ministering to the personal
comforts of heroic American manhood
on the battle lines OF Europe. Surely,
1t requires no appeal to match their
sterling patriotism with every possible
evidence OF our devotion and our graft
tude, no matter what the personal
sacrifice. New Jersey will respond
eagerly. New Jersey will respond in
the spirit that no degree of generosity
can adequately express her depth Of
appreciation for the valorous services
of democracy's saviors.
This is the method by which our
army at home can prove its LOYALTY to
our country and flag and it's apprecia.
ton of the real sacrifices the flower of
our country is making to the causes Of
humanity.

Civil Court Matters

Judge Carrow, on Wednesday, direct
ed verdict of no cause for action in
the cases of John D. johnson and
Benjamin Deacon against John p
Hutchinson and others. This was an
action to recover the plaintiffs proper
tionate share of the proceeds of pub.
lie sale of the Manhasset hotel, Seaside
Park. The plaintiffs and eight Others
were the holders of all bonds issued by
the hotel company. The evidence
showed that when the sale took place
there were no bidders and the bond
holders had to buy the property.
The next case was that of Mary
Hughes against the township of Flor
ence, an action for damages. The
plaintiff claimed that she stepped into
a hole in the gutter in front of her pro-
perty and was permanently injured.
This hole, she claimed, had been made
by the township.
The defence claimed that no exca-
walton had been made; that the road
supervisor merely had cleaned the
cutters all along the street, and that
the work had been doue to allow the
drainage of water from one end of the
street to the other, distance of about
half mile, at proper grade.
Harold b. Wells, who represented
the township, at the conclusion of the
testimony, moved that the jury be
to return verdict of no cause
for action. This was opposed by
Robert Peacock, counsel for Mrs.
Hughes.
The court reserved decision until
yesterday morning, when the motion

Bordentown

The retail liquor license of the Riv-
erview House, conducted by Mrs.
Almira P. Evans, was renewed by the
City Commissioners at their regular
meeting on Tuesday evening. The
license fee was fixed at the same figure
that the other hotels paid this year,
1925.
John Pierce, gate tender employed
by the Pennsylvania railroad, at the
Third street crossing, was killed Tues
day evening while trying to safeguard
the lives of pedestrians. Pierce had
left his usual position in the tower for
few minutes, when he heard the Am
boy train approaching. He was
caught before he reached the gates,
which he was hurrying to close for fear
that some one might walk in front OF
the train. Onlookers were undecided
as to whether he either failed to prop
erly gauge the distance and speed OF
the train or stumbled over the rail,
but in any event he was caught be-
meath the wheels and mutiIated al
most beyond recognition.

Y. M. C. A. Notes.

Forty-nine boys from the Railway
reform school are camping near
Wrightstown, where they are doing
road construction. These boys are
using the quarters occupied last year
by Is boys from the same institution
Tor the same purpose. The county Y
M. Z. A. committee is looking after
the camp by holding Sunday afternoon
services, and has provided victrola,
records, and some athletic equipment.
me secretary recently asked the fell
lows If they would enjoy some home
made cake and the yell that went up
could be heard for miles. This pro-
vision is being met by one of the ladies'
organizations in Mount Holly, which
will soon provide cake enough for 40
fellows. There are all kinds of organ
izatlons ministering to the men in the
environments. Those of us who have
visited Camp Dix know of their abund-
ance. In addition the soldiers have
spending money and can visit the can
teen when they want to supplement
the army rations. These Railway bows
have no money nor is there any can
teen nearby where they may secure
sweetmeats. These boys remind one |
OF I. A. Craig's statement not long
since in the Toronto World: "Everv |
boy who comes to maturity has cost
the state-that is, you and me-$1 900.
Some boys go wrong. When a bow
goes wrong we not only lose 81 900, but
we have to spend another 81 900 to pro-
tect ourselves against him." Mr.,
Craig goes on to say "The Y. M. C. A.
is an organization of manly men.
whose sole object is to keep our boys
morally, mentally and physically
right. These right ones in turn keep
others right Thus the Y. M. C. A. is
an investment that pays cumulative
dividends, not only in cash, but in
character. The Burlington county
association is glad to. work on the as

have done and in preparing them for

OTHER CRIMINAL CASES

Yesterday morning lie Roy Horne,
of Burlington, was placed on trial for
the larceny of groceries, clothing, etc.,
from the residence of Mrs. Harriet
Kimble, also of that city.
Prosecutor Kelsey appeared for the
state. Samuel A. Atkinson represent
ed the defendant.
Horne had been given a contract to
install electric light wires in Mrs. Kim
ble's house. She claimed that he
carried articles away when he left her
home at noon and night, in asuitcase.
One day she said she caught him with
some of her groceries in the suitcase,
and that he surrendered them without
argument.
Magistrate Thomas S. Mooney, be-
fore whom the preliminary hearing
took place, wasscalled to testify to a
a statement made by the defendant at
the hearing. After the complainant
had concluded her testimony at that
time, Horne asked if he could make a
statement. The magistrate answered
in the affirmative, but cautioned the
defendant that anything he said
would be used against him. Horne
then started rambling story which
had no connection with the case and
the magistrate stoppsd him. The tell
ing of this statement, Mr.. Mooney
said, occupied about one or two min
utss before it was stopped. Then the
magistrate asked the Young man Why
he took the goods.
Objection was made to the admission
of the reply to the magistrates ques-
ton, and the objection was sustained
by Judge Lippincott. There seems to
be distinction between statement
and reply to question in the mat.
ter of warning defendant.
AT the conclusion of the states case
the defence asked for dismissal upon
the ground that the charges in the in
dictment had not been proved. This
was refused.
The defence claimed that the youn,
man had not stolen the goods; tina
anything he took home in a suitcas
had been bought by him at store ant
that another man beside the defendan
was working at the. Kimble house a
the time he was.
The jury returned verdict of no
guilty.
The next case yesterday was tn
+ state against George F. Murphy
charged with the use Of a railroad pas
0 with intent to defraud the company
The defendant was telegraph opera
tor in the employ of the Pennsylvani
railroad. He was stationed at Masor
vile. He used the pass after he lei
the employ of the company, while h
was working at Camp Dix.
The pass states that it is goo
i until otherwise ordered" The test
mony showed that an order had bee
ISSUED by the company to call in til
L pass, but the order was not delivere
e to Murphy. The message was serve
u upon his wife, and there was no ev
u dence to show that he ever receive
the notice.
e The defendant claimed, at the hea
e ing before Justice Heilbron, that
Ell thought he had right to use the pas
= as the company had not paid b
Is wages in full
,el The court directed the jury to rend
verdict of not guilty.
