COLUMBIA SIX IS BEST
TRADE IN" VALUE

First place in percentage of re-
sale value among all cars built is held
by the Columbia Six in the latest
edition of the National Used Car
Blue Book.
This book is the national author
ity on used car values, and is based
on used car quotations from all parts
of the country. The Used Car Blue
Book Is referred to by automobile
dealers as a guide in estimating de-
probation of various makes of cars.
The Columbia Six shows the low
est percentage of depreciation by
a wide margin in a list of cars hat
includes all models in any real
volume of production, including the
most expensive makes. The owner
of a Columbia Six, in other words,
Is entitled to a larger proportion of
the original price of his car after
a years driving than he could get
from any other car. on the market.
"These figures" comments Jack
Weitzen of the Superior Garage, give
the best possible proof of the in
vestment value of the Columbia Six.
They are an indication of the x
tremely slow depreciation a Column
bia undergoes. They show that the
Columbia Six has gained the same
reputation nationally for durability,
mechanical excellence and depend
ability that it has earned right in
this vicinity.
1--WE are not surprised to see CO.
lumbia at the top of the list, be-
cause the Columbia all-feature
chassis, composed as it is of the
best mechanical units known to the
automobile world today, must ma
turally outlast and outperform other
cars less expertly designed and built.
when we sell a Columbia Six We
can feel that our customer is get
ting a big dollars worth for every
dollar he pays, and that his car will
continue to be worth more than the
average for a good long time. That's
one of the big eason why we are
handing the Columbia line"

SOUTH AMBOYS
CHIEF DEAD
Chief of Police James E. Nc
Donnell Died Yesterday Fol-
lowing Nine Months Illness

SOUTH AMBOY, Oct. 15:-James
i. Mcdonnell, local chief of police,
after an illness of nine months died
at his home in Church street yester-
day at IL o'clock. A shadow OF
slpom rests over the city long policed
by the man who has gone to meet
his eternal reward.
James Mcdonnell for the past
quarter of a century served on the
local police force. He succeeded the
late William Minnick as chief of
police twenty-one years ago. MIR.
McDonnell's service to the city in
hat long period has been marked
Z It'll much achievement. His daring
. It's in the interest of his fellowmen
Ion for him the love and respect
from all who had occasion to meet
kfim in the capacity of chief OF
vpolice. Mr.. McDonnell's name was
on several occasions broadcasted for
his heroism in bringing to justice
men who h3d escaped the law by
force.
The most noted act of his career
as police officer came on November
10, 1899, when the whole state was
thrown into confusion by the murder
of Chief of Police James Walsh of
Red Bank by George Bollock, color
ed.
The news of the cold blooded af-
fair reached the ears of the local
police force and a sharp lookout was
Kept in this city. The dispatch from
Red Bank stated that Bollock vas
heading toward this city.
The chief while patroling Broad
way on the afternoon of the murder
noticed a sulking figure which close
ly resembled that of the murderer.
Those acquainted with what trans
pired on that eventful day say the
capture of Bollock was one of the
shreWdest pieces Of work ever per-
formed by a policeman without the
use of firearms. 1t looked for a time
as though the negro would outwit
the chief of police but Mcdonnell
was undaunted at the sight of the
gun pulled into use by the refugee.
The chief rushed his man and after
a hard tussle succeeded in getting
the gun. The negro was placed I'M
der arrest and brought safely back
to Monmouth county.
For this act of heroism James Nc
Donnell was rewarded by the people
of Red Bank, who gave him a solid
gold ring together with a gold watch
and chain. On the back of the watch,
which the chief always carried, was
the inscriptions: "To James McDon-
nell, in appreciation by the people of
Red Bank for the capture of the
murderer of Chief of Police James
Walsh of Red Bank on November 13,
1892"
James Mcdonnell was born in
New Hope, Pa, and came to this city
( when a boy of four years. He re-
ceived his early education in the
public school of this city. He later

His love for children and their
love for him made him a popular
figure on the streets. Many of those
who have since grown to manhood
held him in high respect. Mr.. Nc
Donnell was an ardent follower of
baseball. In his younger days he
played in this city and several years
ago played with the "Old Timers"
a5ainst the famous Athletics of this
city.
During his last days he expressed
the desire of again donning the brass
buttons, to take charge of the force
that has grown since his illness. His
whole ambition al to have South
Amboy properly policed. He loved
his adopted city and was always be-
hind civic undertakings that meant
the advancement of South Altboy.
His last official act was perform

reclining in a wheel chair he review
