Military Affairs,

A number of officers have been ap-
pointed to be historians of the 29th
division of the American Expeditions
ary Forces. One of these is Lieut..
William H. Absalom, of Florence.
President Wilson has appointed
General Hugh l.. Scott as a member
of the Federal Boardsof Indian Com.
nlissioners. The appointment has met
with general commentator. His
method of open diplomacy in al
matters, particularly in dealing with
Indians in the past, has made him
famous among the tribes as being
ABSOLUTELY square. General Scott's new
duties will not interfere with hi
position of post commander of CamI
Dix.

Slight mention is made by Private
Ferdinando Bonaventura, the young
Burlington soldier recently cited by
the War Department for extraordinary
heroic action, in letters the modest hero
has written friends here of the details
of the experience that brought him
the distinguished service cross. At the
close of one letter to Gus Centifonto, of
East Burlington, Private Bonaventura
merely says he got Christmas
present in the form of the
distinguished service cross for captur-
ing German gun. War Department
records show what the soldier act
ually did was to charge, single-handed
| two machine gun nests, and armed
only with an automatic rifle, put to
flight the supporting squad of Ger
mans, put the crews out of business
and captured their weapons that had
been causing heavy casualties among
the American troops. Later he led O
detachment far into the enemy lines
encouraging his men by his dauntless
spirit and fearless example.
DR.. John S. Conroy. Jr., lieutenant
in the Medical Corps of the United
States army, unexpectedly arrived a
his home in Burlington, on Friday
night. He came over from France Oh
the Wilhelmina, arriving at Hoboker
on Friday after stormy voyage o
seventeen days. The doctors arriva
was happy surprise to Mrs. Conroy
She had just finished reading a lette
from him when he suddenly appeared
1t was the first time she had seen hin
since last June. He is now at Cam
Dix, awaiting discharge from tn
army.

the pupils chances to enjoy themselves
during their noon hours and after
school. An orchestra has been devel.
oped which is much appreciated by the
students. The gymnasium is opened
at the noon hour for those who wish to
dance. A teacher is in charge to act
as chaperone. The gymnasium is used
every day from 3 until 5 O'Clock for
| basketball
70. Regular teachers meetings are
being held for the purpose of discuss
ing better ways of teaching. At
these meetings the teachers are given
chance to take considerable part.
"a. We are attempting to better the
reading work in the schools by giving
more attention to the thought in what
is read.
rs. Cooperating with the Parent
Teacher Association, we are giving
monthly demonstrations of classroom
work in the auditorium in order that
parents may see what is being done
in the schools.
rs. Several prizes have been offered
to the school for the purpose of get
ting pupils to do good work. These
prizes have been offered by the citi-
zens of Mount Holly.
n. Owing to the fact that there has
been so much illness this year the at
tendance has not been as good as we
wish, but we hope to make a special
drive on this for the rest of the year.
We have succeeded in getting the
number of cases of lateness to be very
small
28. The schools have taken active
part in all war activity drives this
year and have been quite successful in
them.
While this has been difficult year
to do school work, owing to the extra
work caused by the war, the great
of sickness among both pupils
and teachers, and the closing of the
schools for so long, we feel that we
have made considerable progress in
many things. Taken as whole the
pupils seem to be enjoying their work
and to be trying to do well.
Next year we hope to do much more
% build our schools up and to make
hem what they should be.
We hope next year to have the
grade buildings lighted, the gymna-
'ium equipped, the library reorganized
md made better, a special class or
ganized for backward pupils, better
attendance in the lower grades, and
lumber of other things which we hope
will prove beneficial to the schools.

was given to him. Hogel also Offered
jolly 5000 but the latter said he did
not need it and simply wanted a re
ceipt for the money as he was willing
to trust his friend that far. Jolly took
the book to the bank and the officials
discovering that forgery had been COM
mitted had Hogel arrested.
Hogel explained the transaction as
Jolly had told it. He said he owned
some farm land in Austro- Hungary
and he had contracted with a party to
sell it for $3.50. After borrowing the
5000 he received 1875 on this contract,
the balance to be paid when the con-
tract was completed. 1t was out of
this 1915 that he offered to return the
5000 to Jolly. When he was arrested
the man who had bought the lots went
his bail, three or four days after
the borrowing transaction. Hogel went
to Ohio, was there one day when his
bondsman became worried so Joe came
back
The man who contracted the debt
for the farms corroborated Hogel's
story. He admitted that he got little
nervous at the absence of the man
from the state and wanted him brought
back
Judge Lippincott said he was sorry
that the bank book had not been pre-
sented in evidence, but it appears to
be in the possession of the cashier who
declined to let it go. He did not come
down as witness. The Judge said he
could not see where there was any evil
dence of deliberate forgery. The de-
PENDANT had been given the bank book
and had been told to sign the owners
name. He had offered to return the
money within twenty four hours and
Jolly had~said he did not want it but
was willing to let it remain out on ere
ceipt." The only question that
seemed to need some deliberation was
that of getting money under false pre-
tence, but as that point had not been
pressed and in the absence of the bank
book that would show what the re-
quirements were to get money the !
Judge could not see his way to hold |
the defendant and Hogel was dis
charged. Robert Peacock defended |
him,

Favor Big Military Post

The army officers who have been
looking up the ownership of land be-
tween Lakehurst and Dix for some
months past, are all strong for a big
military post in the east, where ar
tillery can be tried out, and all kinds
of manoeuvres undertaken on large
scale, with thousands of men. They
say it would be difficult to get for the
same amount of money tract as big
as that running between Lakehurst
and Dix, any where in the east, and
that the location, about midway be-
tween New York and Philadelphia, on
both the Pennsylvania Railroad sys-
tenn and Central Railroad Of New Jer-
sey, is ideal for huge army post. If
the recommendations of these inves-
tigators have weight with the war de-
partment, the posts at Lakehurst will
be retained, and so will Camp Dix, as
permanent posts, and the country in
between will be bought by the govern
ment, and all made into federal re-
servation.
But of course the whole matter is
up in the air. 1t will all depend, first,
on how the high officials of the gen.
eral staff look at it; second, on how
the administration takes the recon-
mendation Of the general staff and,
third, on how Congress comes across
with appropriations, if all the others
look upon the plan favorably.
Meantime the army officials have
been spending considerable time over
the records at Toms River and Mount
Holly, running down ownership to the
land, to be ready in case there is any,
thing to be done.-T'on1S River Courier.

Mrs. Ira c. Leedom, whose husband
formerly was city treasurer of Borden.
town, died at the Mercer hospital, al
Trenton, on Friday, from injuries re-
ceived when struck by an automobile
near her home on the Lawrenceville
road, on Thursday. The automobile
belonged to the Gulf Refining Com
pany.
Robert Greenstein, a Bordentown
real estate dealer, was arrested last
week, and committed to the Mercer
county Jail, charged with stealing a
horse and rig from Frank P. English,
a Trenton liveryman. The horse, it
appears, had been in the American
House stables at Bordentown ever
since the day it was taken. Greenstein
says he engaged the horse and rig
from the English stables and while he
was on his way to Yardville, met a
stranger. He asked the stranger to
drive to Bordentown to get his mail
and bring it back to Trenton. Green
stein claimed he saw nothing further
of the stranger. He was arrested and
charged with stealing the horse and
wagon and as he faced Judge Geraghty
in Central Police Court he told the
story about giving the stranger the
horse and rig, but the story did not
sound plausible, and he was held
under $500 bail for the Grand Jury.
He failed to get the bail and he was
committed to Jail. Chief Dettmar fol-
lowed up the story told by the prisoner
and the horse and rig were found in
the Bordentown stable by Captain
Clancy and Detective Pilger, about
two blocks away from the place where
Greenstein lived. The horse was left
at the stable by the stranger on the
same day it was taken, thus corrobora-
ting Greenstein's story of his inno-
cence.
