FRENCH REPUBLIC OUTWITTED
BY RACE "BOOKIES' PLANS TO
OPEN OFFICIAL BETTING BOOTHS

The bookie generally refuses to take
any tips after e-thirty-racing be-
gins at two--and in the case Of out
siders winning he will not pay out
more than one hundred and fifty
francs for every five invested. Some
times he will go to the races and by
playing himself try to protect his own
money but in most cases boOkies are
usually satisfied TO wait till the night
to see how they have come out. 1t is
rare that they lose and they more
often finish the day with net gain Of
eight to ten thousand francs than
otherwise.
Such clandestine bets have so much
worried the government that special
laws were passed to deal with both
bookies and players, but they have
yielded little results and the authorities
now are contemplating the opening ot
official pari-mutuel booths in all large
cities where one might play fancied
horses and where the government
could collect its share Of l. per cent.

HUNS FREE
SUB. OFFICERS

Though the French declare the Leip-
zig trials of alleged war criminals are
farcical, and have withdrawn from the
commissions watching the proceedings,
the trials are going on, and last week
there was revived interest because two
German lleutenants were arraigned
charged with submarine frightfulness.
They commanded the U-boat that sank
the British hospital ship Landovery
Castle, and are accused of attempting
to murder the entire personnel of the
vessel, including the wounded and the
Red Gross nurses, after they realized
their mistake in sinking the ship. The
defendants refused to testify, but
members of the crew told how 1t was
decided to hide all traces Of the crime
and how the overcrowded lifeboats
were shelled and sunk. The
court then surprised the allied watch
ers by calling dozen Germans who
testified to alleged British atrocities
at sea, and made the charge that the
steamship Baralong few the American
flag when 1t sunk the German subma-
rine U-31. Some of them swore the
British used lifeboats as decoys and
carried troops and munitions aboard
hospital ships. All Of this was in
tended to Justify the acts of the sub
marine commanders.

WORK BEGUN ON
LOCAL PAVING

Lanlbrtville- County Engineer
Grant Davis has force of men at
work setting grade stakes for the
rebuilding of Main, Bridge and York
Streets, in this city, the contract hav-
ing been awarded to Joseph F. Burk,
of Plainfield, for S3S 5000.
Main and Bridge Street, the former
from York south to the city line, and
the latter from Main Street to the
Delaware River. will be rebuilt ma
cadam, with asphaltic top, while the
York Street hill will be of concrete.
The successful bidder has already
ordered the material, and expects to
begin work the coming week. The
only serious difficulty in the way of
early completion is the handling of
the traffic on Main street, south of
Feeder Street, where there is no OPP
portunity to detour. 1t is now planned
to use the sidewalk, by adding some
filling along one side, and all who
can, will be urged to go to Trenton
via Ringoes, or down, the Pennsyl-
vania side of the river to Washing
toms Crossing.

FLOODS AT
BENNINGTON

iFlemington- Four and one-half in
of water fell here Tuesday night
when series of thunderstorms how
cred over the vicinity for more than
two hours. Small streams were turned
into raging torrents, and overlooking
their banks, carried fences and brid-
ges in its path.
South of Pennington the water
overlooked the macadam road SO
that automobiles were forced to wait
several hours until the water had
fallen. One automobilist attempted
to make a crossing and his machine
was swept against the fence along
the roadway. In Pennington many
cellars were flooded. The office
building of DIR. G. B. Tompkins, a
dwelling belonging to William J
Britton and barn building belong
ing to Manuel Dvoor were struck by
lightning and damaged. At Cooper
Hill the water in the creek exceeded
it's high water mark by two feet. In
that section it is thought that more
than five inshes of water fell.
In some sections trees were up
rooted and growing corn was flat
tened to the ground by strong winds.
At Ringoes the dwelling occupied by
Curtis Adams was struck by light
ming and damaged.

ROW OVER
LONDON PEACE
DELEGATES

1t was said Lloyd George and Lord
as the representatives of Great Brit
ain, and this stirred up an amusing
row over there. The Times declared
editorially that neither of those men
is fitted "by his position, his tempera-
lnent, and his past career to take di-
rect part in these negotiations,
The premier retorted with an order
that representatives of the Times, the
Daily Mail and the Evening News all
controlled by Lord Northcliffe, should
be denied access to information given
out to the press generally at the for
cign Office and by the prime minister's
secretaries at 10 Downing street. How
Lloyd George can justify such a blow
at the liberty and independence Of the
press remains to be seen. Perhaps
he will not try to do so.
1t is interesting to note that a com
mittee of the League of Nations met
in Luxembourg on Saturday, under
the presidency of NJ. Eiviani, to con-
slider disarmament Officials of the
league at Geneva assert the league is
not yet considering abandoning its dis
armament plans because of the action
of the United States. 1t will be still
more interesting to see what will hap
pen if both the league and the Wash
ington conference adopt different dis
armament projects.

HERDLEA SALE
AGAIN
POSTPONED

New Hope The Sheriff's sale Of
the seven farms comprising the Herd
lea Farm Company's tract, in Sole
bury township, has been postponed
again. 1t was advertised to take
place last Friday, but was put off for
the fourth time. Sheriff Hunsberger
has not announced the date to which
the sale is now postponed.
Nearly a thousand acres of the Sole
bury Valleys finest land is involved
in the sale. The tract was purchased
by Anderson I. Herd, a New Yorker,
few years ago, and extensive i'm
provements and alterations started at
that time.
Herds purchases absorbed farm
after farm. Finally Watson K. Reed
err of the Eastburn Reeder estate, re-
fused to confirm sale of the Reeder
estate farms to Herd, disposing of
them instead to the American Clay
Products company.
Herd then dropped an option on the
Hugh Kitchener farm, after the latter
had sold his stock and prepared to
vacate. This farm was also taken up
by the brick company, which soon
formed a solid phalanx of farms to
the south and west of Herd, shutting
him off from land entrance into New
Hope borough, or to the Reading Rail
way toward which he appeared to be
reaching out.
While the Herd headquarters have
been dead" for year or more past,
the brick company has employed many
men, and now has hugh plant nearly
ready for operation, in the upper end
of this borough.
The former Lear flour and feed
mills in Lambertville, which Herd also
purchased, have been idle for more
than year, after $4,000 was ex-
pended for improved machinery, and
there is now considerable speculation
as to how long the present owner will
be able to prevent a final sheriffs
sale of farms and mills that will
eventually place them in the hands of
new owners.
/ Herd, a New York broker, appar-
emily went into the farming business
on the gentleman farmer" plan, A
large residence which was started
for him on the Herdlea tract is I'M
completed.

GREEKS GAIN
ON TURKS

The god of war is devoting his at

Minor, where the Greek offensive
against the Turk nationalists Is fairly
getting under way. The wings of the
Greek army advanced respectively
from the Brusa sector on the north
and the Ushak sector on the south.
The movement converged on Kutaia,
on the main line of the Bagdad rail-
way. and at last accounts the two
forces were engaged In desperate
battle for possession Of that town and
the mountain heights nearby. The
Greeks are using bombing planes with
effect. Renal Pasha, leader Of the
Turk nationalists, went to the front
from Angora. He has warned the al
lied high commission at Constantine
pie that If there should be any evt'
dence that the Greeks are making use
Of that city or of other points In the
neutral zone in their operations, the
nationalists will be obliged to avail
themselves of the same privilege. ke-
ma. told an American correspondent
the nationalists would welcome arbi'
tration by Secretary Of State Hughes
