A SUNDAY BOOZE PARTY

AS the result Of a Sunday booze
party and assault, Willis Satterly, ~
years old, of 143 North 51st street,
Philadelphia; Charles McCaffery, "a
years old, of 237 South 54th street,
Philadelphia; Henry Mckinley, "a
years old, of 1925 North seth street,
Philadelphia, and a 23-year old girl,
Peggy Dolan, of 112 East Lavender
road, Wildwood Crest, were in the
tolls of the Wildwood police last Sun
day. Mckinley answered to a charge
of assault and battery on Frank Cole,
son of the proprietress of Severn Hall,
Mrs. Samuel R. Cole, of Riverton. Sat
terly and McCaffery were guests at
the Lotel. 1t came out in the test1-
mony at a hearing Monday afternoon
before Squire Byrne that Mckinley
and Peggy met Satterly and Mccall
ery at the railroad station and the lat
ter two offered them liquor, which they
said they procured in Anglesea. Dur
ing the evening guests at Severn Hall
complained of a disturbance and
Frank Cole went to the oom of the
two guests about eleven O'Clock Sun
day night and found Mckinley and
the girl there. Mr.. Cole ordered them
to leave and his mother refunded the
money to them. It was during the
parleying on the steps of the front
porch that Mckinley struck Cole, re-
sulting in a number of wounds on
head and face. DR.. Tomlin was called
and dressed the wounds. AS Frank
Cole fell Satterly and McCaffery
rushed out and Mckinley and the girl
also fed. Before the assault occurred
the police had been sent for. Police
man Mike Sheehan soon appeared and
placed Satterly and McCaffery under
arrest. The next morning Detective
Charles Unfreed arrested mckinley
and the girl at the Crest. At the hear
ing Mckinley was held for the Grand
Jury under $500 bail. While bail was
being sought the compliments re-
Tented and the defendant was freed
on one months probation.

FIRE IN NORTH WILDWOOD CITY
HALL CAUSED BY DRUNK
Prisoner Drops Lighted Cigarette in

Prisoner Drops Lighted Cigarette in
Straw Mattress
Al lighted cigarette which ignited a
mattress in a cell of the North Wild
wood city hall on Monday evening al
most resulted in the death of a pris-
oner and caused considerable damage
to the building. The prisoner, Charles
r. Williams, a fisherman on the
schooner "Venda," and a former resi-
dent of Millville, is the man who
caused the fire. Williams had imbibed
too freely of white Mule" was ar
rested early in the evening and placed
in a cell of the Jail. During the night
it became cold and he pulled a straw
mattress about him to keep warm. The
cigarette which he vas smoking set
fire to the mattress and the flames
spread rapidly from a wooden parti-
ton to the roof of the building.
Charles Sanders, whose home is near
the city hall, heard the cries of Will
liams and saw smoke issuing from the
building. He ran to the fire house,
grabbed an axe, broke the lock on the
cell door and carried the prisoner to
safety. The man was almost suffo-
Gated from the smoke.
The fumes of the smoke awakened
John Kohlman, a deaf mute who sleeps
in the building, who sounded al alarm
and sent for help from the Wildwood
Fire Department. The Wildwood fire
men responded at once and no doubt
their aid saved the building from burn
ing to the ground. The fire destroyed
a section of the roof before it was
brought under control.
Williams was taken to Mace's Hos
pital where his injuries were found to
be slight. Williams is an inveterate
drinker and several times has been
under arrest for drunkenness. He gen.

MONEY AND THE BOLSHE.
VISITS

One Of the features OF the Bolshefis'
vov,rnment in Russia that has attract
sa world wide attention. is It's attitude
,,..rninx money. The Lenlne-Trotzky
regime at one time issued an order 40
ollshing money entirely. 1t was touno
,,., mi. would not work well. and
money was restored. Since that time
tia Bolsheylsts have been printing
No. money in enormous quantities
The only thing wrong with this money
., that /, will not buy anything. the
RussIans having overlooked the trinins
fact that paper money. 10 be worth any
thing. must have something OF real
value behind II.
Nothing better illustrates the oeiu-
.,o,, ~ the communists and OF others
who have false ideas about money
Their position was that money IN itse"
was Of no value. You cannot eat
money" they said. You cannot wear II
nor uae II for the satisfaction OF any
human necessity. Therefore. money is
worthless and We will abolish IT,. This
4, al, true. but II is only a half truth.
The farmer cannot eat or wear his
plow, but without 1t he cannot cultivate
his land. The manufacturer cannot cat
or VICAR his machinery. but he cannot
prcducs anything without II. What the
Russians overlooked. Is that money IS a
part Of the machinery OF civilization.
But, machinery. in order 10 do its
work right. must be good. Even the
Bo'shevists know that a Russian farmer
cannot pillow as we'll with sharp stick
a. no can with modern steel pillow.
Yet they seem 10 think that paper with
q government seal on it should work as
well as gold or silver, or paper with
value back OF It equivalent to gold or
.jIyer. In other words, they are infan-
tile enough to try 10 get something for
nothing. They do not appear 10 under
stand, that while money In itself IL
nothing. It must represent actual values
IN labor or in merchandise. When those
values are not back OF It. money is what
Russian and German currencIes are to-
day-merely paper. Eventually. the
Bolshsvists will grasp the fact that
money Is not device OF the hated cap
ttalists. but something that has been
evolved by mankind as a necessity
through thousands OF years of expert
ence.
