Traced by Broken Glass.

The car which struck Mr.. Walbert
passed on up the road without stop
ping to see what harm it had done.
Sheriff Townsend and his deputies
were summoned and began an in
vestiSation. Several cars were under
suspicion, as residents along the road
had seen the cars racing and the
sheriff found several pieces OF glass
belonging 20 a headlight on one of
the scars. He made a search and put
ting the broken pieces of glass into
the headlight of one of the ears, he
found that they fitted exactly. The car
was traced to a well known young man
in the county, and when the sheriff
reached his home for an interview he
was informed by the young man S

An instance which shows the un-

A wild and exciting race was staged
Friday in the northern outskirts of the
village. the course being laid straight
south from +. II. Martins buildings and
the goal the village limits. There were
two contestants, PAGER, whose years are
somewhat ripe but whose courage shone
forth in frey eye and ready hoof, and
his competitor. handsome, young and
dashng bay, all ready for the fray. Both
stectls were driven by their owners. At
the first trial as excitement was running
high and woodchucks and squirrels bet
ting their limit on the result. an unfeeling,
odoriferous, honking bubble car" came
upon the scene and monopolized the race
course so the steeds were turned north
again and returned to the starting point.
This time, with a clear track, with strain
ing nerve and cracking whip down to the
goal they swept with the old PAGER in the
lead. And this explains why the genial
blacksmith in the north end of the village
is driving a rig gaily decorated with blue
ribbon.

STATE SERVES
PROBE NOTICE
Action Taken Following Com
plants of Undervaluations
in MiddIesex County

NEW BRUNSWICK. Oct. 21:-
Formal notice OF an investigation of
the tax ratables in Middlesex county
was served on the Board of Free
holders yesterday by the State Board
of Taxes and Assessments.
This action by the state board is
being taken following the filing of a
complaint by the authorities = OF
Union county who allege that pro-
perties in this county are underval-
ued.
The notice given was in the form
of a communication which advised
that the state board now has their
investigation under way. The notice
was referred to County Solicitor
Frederick f. Richardson.
Despite the fact that the highest
taxing authorities of the state are
now scrutinizing Middlesex valua-
tions, the County Board of Taxation
have intimated that substantial in
crease in ratables will be shown In
the 1922 tax sheet.
Under the provisions of the stat
utes adopted at the last session OF
the legislature a further raise in
ratables can be made by the state
board if, in their opinion, the sub
stantial increase" looked for Is not
deemed sufficient to show a fair val-
uation of property in the county on
ich the taxes are based.
Taxes in two other counties OF the
state are also about to be investi-
gated. and it is considered more than
likely that the start of ratable inves-
legations will be carried through
every county of the state in an effort
to equalize the tax in manner
satisfactory to all of the twenty-one
counties
