Borough Finances
Running Low
Will Require The Borough Clerk
and Finance Committee to Do
Some Expert Figuring to
Carry Them Through

Council met in regular ~bi-weekly
session on Tuesday night, and all the
members we're present. They appear
ed to be in fairly good humor after the
battle of the ballots the previous
week.
Mayor Samuel NJ. Hunt presided.
Robert w. Kidd, Chairman of the
Finance Committee, reported a bal
ance in the treasury of $17,915.48; Ii
censes and miscellaneous revenue,
$3,946.6S.
Insurance amounting to $4,000 for
three years was divided among the
local agents. The amount overs the
Borough Hall.
The plaster work on the Borough
Hall is becoming loose and falling off
in places. The Clerk was directed to
write to E. j. Kreitzenberg, the con
tractor, who sub-let the p~lastering, to
go over the work and see what is
necessary to be done.
An extra days pay was granted to
the members of the police force for
double shift duty on election day.
Eward J. Dean, dog catcher, pre-
scented a bill for $45. He reported
having killed 25 dogs up to November
18th. For this service he receives
one dollar each, the Borough furnish
ing the %chloroform. Then he had a
bill for feeding them-charging 25
cents a day for each dog. His bill
read twenty-five cents "a meal" but
this is evidently wrong.
On motion, the salary Isl per Year,
of the fresnen was ordered paid, $500
being drawn from the salary fund.
The additional amount will be used
for expenses attendant upon "Hous-
ing Day"
On Sunday last the heater in the
First Baptist Church gave out and
they were unable to hold services.
Privilege to use the Council chamber
for the purpose was granted. For
this kindly act, John G. Sullivan, rep
resenting the Church, thanked the
Council.
Forty handsome nickel badges, to be
worn by the active firemen, which had
been purchased by the department,
were ordered paid for. They cost 50
cents each.
The closets ordered TO be erected
in the fire apparatus room on the first
floor. in which to keep the uniforms.
service clothing, etc, are in course OF
construction.
Quite a number of bills were order
ed held over for future payment as
there is not enough in the appropr1a-
lions under the new budget law to
meet them. Other appropriations not
exceeded can be arranged to meet the
emergency.

Auto Accident
Three Men Killed
Penns Grove Dealer Drives Car
at Breakneck Speed, Killing
Three Men

RumOrs began flying through Penns
Grove early last night Thursday
that a terrible automobile accident
had occurred in the neighborhood of
Woodstown in which several Penns
Grove people had been killed. The
rumors soon became actual facts,
three men lying dead as the result.
The dead are:
John Foster, 80 years old, married,
of Carneys Point.
John Eyerman, so years old, mar
ried, of Carneys Point.
C. Otis Peterson, A years old, a
ried, Of Penns Grove, and Dictator of
Moose Lodge, No. 800. The family
resides at 68 North Broad Street.
Foster and Eyerman were killed
outright, Peterson dying this friday
morning in Salem hospital.
Two autobuses on the line between
Camden and Salem had stopped on
the road in front of the Borton farm,
about one mile out of Woodstown, OF
the State road leading to Mullica
Hill about 7 o'clock, while the drivers
engaged in brief conversation. They
were halted on the right-hand side of
the road, and it is claimed all neces-
sary lights were burning and the
drivers say they cannot explain how
the tragedy occurred.
Five men in a brand new Briscoe
car, driven by Foster, an agent for
the car, and who has a small garage
on Shell Road between Walker Ave
nue. and Broad Street, came tearing
along the road from the direction of
Penns Grove. The bus drivers declare
the speed was terrific. In a flash the
flying car hit the autobus pointed
north and the crash could have been
heard for a mile, So great was the
impact that little, save bits of metal,
glass and shapeless parts were heap
ed in the road, while a hole 18 IN
ches across was driven in the auto
bus.
All five of the riders in the touring
car were buried in the mass of tan
gled wreckage, and the bus men and
their few passengers set to work to
eXtricate them. Foster and Eyerman
were beyond help, their heads and
chest badly crushed. Peterson sill
showed signs of life, although there
was a gaping hole in his head and
his chest was caQed in. Leon Y,
Park, % years old, single, has 9
broken leg and many bruises and
cuts on his body. L. R. Lynch, 81
years old, married, also has a broken
leg and a number of cuts and bruises,
Both latter live at Carneys Point.
The roadway for a space of many
feet was saturated with blood of the
dead and injured. DR.. Housted, OF
Woodstown, responded to a hurry cal
to the scene of the tragedy and rem
dered first aid, after which the in
ed were taken to the hospital anG
the bodies to Coroner Dennis morgus
in Salem.
Mr.. Peterson, who vas the worst
injured of the party died as state1
above in the Salem hospital. His
funeral will take place on Monday
21st, Irom his late home, SO Nortf
