COLLINGSWOOD WOMAN

Mrs. Leonard r. Heppler, 634 Park
avenue Collingswood on Monday, was
injured when the automobile in
which she was riding with her hus-
band was in collision with the car
of Richard James colored, "a Belyi-
dere street, Trenton, at the bridge at
Transport where in a recent accident
one woman was burned to death and
man was so badly injured that he
died soon in the hospital here.
Both automobiles were travelling
toward Moorestown with Hopper in
the lead. The latter wanted to stop
at the refreshment stand at the end
of the bridge and he reduced his
speed, it is said, without signaling
James, who could not stop in time to
avoid collision. Both cars were
considerably damaged.
County Detectives Cain arrived in
time to find that James was driving
without license and registration
cards and he was taken before JUS
tice Throckmorton here nd find $40
payment to be suspended if he pro-
duced the licenses that he said he
had home. His car was held pend

BURLINGTON co. FIREMEN
MEET AT RIVERTON
Association To Act On Autoists
Hogging The Road.

That the Burlington County Fire
mems Association intends to try and
put stop to wholesale calling for
fire apparatus by unauthorized part
les, especially fom a small fire where
the resident company is competent
to handle it and the interference
with the apparatus while proceeding
to fire. was plainly indicated at
their meeting at Riyerton on We'd
nesday evening.
While the attendance was good,
and lively interest evinced in the
discussions yet it was plainly seen,
and so spoken, that deer season
opening, had kept many from being
present.
For some time past, when fires
have broken out. calls for help have
been made by excited persons who
have sent firemen on fools errands,"
endangering lives and apparatus for
no good reason. 1t is expected that
the Chiefs will hold a meeting short
ly to solve this question and come
close to adhearing to the reasoning
and directions on the zone card as
issued by the Association.
The question of legal procedure
to curb autoist from "hogging" the
road, parking on the highway and
abandoning their machine to get
nearer the blaze thereby blocking
the road and preventing the appara-
tus from going into service has the
attention of committee, who will
search the laws governing such con-
suit counsel and if found necessary,
have such legislature prepared,
where lacking, and present same at
the January meeting with their rec
concentrations.
The Riverton Fire Department
acted as host, and aSmodest but in
teresting entertainment for the eyes
and "eats" were freely partaken of.
Delran Fire Co. of Bridgeboro. will
entertain in January 1925.

CRAZY PEOPLE" is. GUARDS
OPINION OF MANY DRIVERS

ut makes you shudder. They do
same every day. Not one but ten OF
'em.
"Some get over just ahead of a
train and turn to me and laugh"
The Italian flagman at the River
Road crossing near the Mozart Club,
with an unpronounceable name and
English broken but impressive, told
last night that it is not strange two
men were killed there on Tuesday
night. The strange part he thinks,
is that one or more are not killed
every day.
"They speed, speed, speed" he
said, in his uncertain English.
"One man come past often, just
ahead of train. / wave him to stop.
He would beat the train and then
laugh.
"One day he didn't go past. He
couldn't make it. He put on his
brakes and his car stop here. Right
on rails, but it was the other track
the train flies past. Now he no
laugh. He look at me and stop
when | wave.
Il stand out with lantern or flag.
They see me, then look up and down
tracks. If train is not right on them
zip, they drive over.
Crazy people drive automobiles.
This the first killed since come two
years ago. But not because auto
mobile drivers stop, look and listen"

MOUNT HOLLY FAIR
TRANSFER HELD UP

At a meeting of the trustees of the
Burlington County Fair Association,
held last week for the purpose of
making final settlement with Samuel
Browne, the purchaser of the fair
ground, three of the trustees were
absent, making it impossible to pass
title, as the deed must be signed by
all the members of the board. It
also was found that words 'at Mount
Holly" had been omitted by the
Secretary of States office from the
certificate of dissolution. These three
words are a part of the corporate
title of the old corporation and
while it is probable the oldest mem
Der hardly remembers them, they
bobbed up and interfered withs the
transfer of title.
Due to interferences, it was nee
essary TO adjourn the meeting, and
it will probably take another four
weeks to straighten out the matter
of these three words to the salts
faction of the title company and
properly pass title.
The representative of the title
company also represented Browne
in the purchase of the property and
before the close of the meeting made
offer of the cash settlement. Il
was rather provoking to some of the
trustees to have the money within
reach and still be unable to deposit
it and have their troubles oyer.

RABBIT SEASON
CLOSES IN JERSEY
endangering lives and apparatus for
Season Closed Monday

Monday brought to close the up
land season in New Jersey, provid.
ing respite from hunters until next
fall for rabbits, pheasants squirrel
and quail.
Restocking with more pheasants
and quail is being urged by farmers
as the season ends. The orchard
owners especially are not overly
pleased with reports that the state
game commission is to import $4,000
rabbits from Missouri during the
winter months for restocking the
Jersey fields and woodlands.
There was another scarcity of cot.
tontails for the cunning season this
year and sportsmen say that the
bags reported by the gunners do moi
nearly account for the 10000 west
ern rabbits turned loose in this state
last winter and spring. Promises have
been made by the state game offici-
ais that the rabbits are not to be re-
leasd in the fruit and truck grow
ing districts where they might cause
serious damage to young trees or
growing crops during the summer
months. They will be placed in the
large expanses of waste land where
breeding conditions are regarded as
ideal.
Hunters who were out for the last
day of rabbit shooting declared that
the cottontails have apparently all
been cleaned out of some sections of
South Jersey, as they were unable to
start a. single one day, even with
dogs. A number of quail and female
pheasants have survivded the gun
ming season, sportsmen say. Or
chard owners and some of the farm
ers provided Ravens for these game
birds and warned gunners off bee
cause of the protection orchards
against insect pest thruout the year
Many hunters are getting their
together for a start to
the deer woods tomorrow for the
opening of the big game season on
Wednesday for run of four days.

OLD LADY WILL SELL FARM
TO LIVE NEAR FOLKS; DEAD

81 want to get back to Tarrytown,
where my dead die: ! want to be
near when it is time to lie with
them"
Margaret Curran, descendent OF
heroic soldiers, alone in the world
sees nothing at the age of 81 more
omforting than the thought Of
sleeping near her dead"
This she told to James J, Carr,
real estate agent, when she called
upon him yesterday and asked if he
would list her little farm for sale.
1t is not much OF a farm. Itstands
on the outskirts of Beverly. The
little old lady lives there alone. The
house. provides shelter and a pension
pays for the little food she requires.
Diversion for Miss Curran comes
when someone has time to stop at
her door for few words, or drop IN
and talk awhile. But she asks no
questions about what new records
airplanes may have made, or how
photographs are sent Miss Curran
does the talking and she likes to
talk about how she heard her grand
father ''waded knee-deep" IN blood
when he fought in the Revolution
'rry not to be to long" she APP
peaIed to Carr. "Soon as you sell 1
must hurry back 10 Tarrytown,
where all my folks are buried.

Anti Move
Opens In County
Frank w. Thacher, of EdgewateI

officials in rounding up criminals
and compel clean observance Of the
laws, citizens from various parts of
the county met at the court house.

Edgewater Park; vice president, Mrs.
Nina g. Frantz, of Moorestown; Sec
rotary, Miss Sarah Haines, of Mason
Vile; treasurer, Morris Linton, of
Moorestown.
Mrs. Frantz stated in her introduce
tory remarks that the suggestion of
the organization of the Law En-
forcement League of Burlington
County came from the December
grand jury of year ago, not be-
cause the officers of the county had
failed to function, but because they
did not have the support of the cit
izenship of the county. She spoke
of the violations of various laws, but
centered her remarks on the failure
of the enforcement of the prohibit
ton laws.
DR.. Marina S. Paulson, superinten-
ent of the Anti-Saloon League of
New Jersey, was present and deliver
ed an address. He was strong in his
denunciation of Senator Edge and
other officials of the state and ma
ton, charging them with utter fail
ure to produce enforcement OF the
Eighteenth Amendment. He said he
had no sympathy with officials who
needed to have their backbones
strengthened by the people and said
there was not prohibition agent
by the government that
had been sponsored by the Anti
SaloonLeague but on the other hand
the agents. were appointed for their
political value and known to be op-
posed to the prohibition laws.
He suggested that the new move
ment should be divorced from poll
tics and took occasion to laud Sena-
tor Roberts and Judge Slaughter.
Addresses were delivered by Rev.
John R. Mason, of Moorestown, and
Rev. DR.. Ritter, of Maple Shade,
Mrs. Frantz read letter from Coun-
ty Detective Ellis H. Parker, in
which the slueth said the authorities
would welcome the assistance OF the
people of the county and called at
tention to the many hindrances they
are subject to owing to the failure
of the people to stand back of the
authorities.

Clifford Heller
Caught In Detroit
Deserted Wife and Children When
He Fled From Home

Clifford Heller, once the assistant
cashier of the Mount Holly Bank
who stole more than $18,500 from
the institution fourteen years age
was captured Wednesday in Detroit
and viii be brought back to New
Jersey in short time.
According to Ellis Parker, who
followed the long trail that led to
Heller's capture after fourteen years
it is not likely that he will be
brought back to Mount Holly.
There are two indictments for en-
bezzlement against Heller, one cover
ing the bank case and the other the
embezzlement of $1,000 from the In
dustry Building and Loan Associa-
ton, of which he was treasurer. Both
cases were adjusted by bonding com
panies.
During his wanderings around the
world to escape arrest, Heller never
heard that his wife died in Asbury
Park about two years ago. While
living in Detroit he remarked. He
did not know that his daughter had
also died and the whereabouts of a
son is not known.
what has happened to my child
rem" Heller asked when taken into
custody. Heller who is now fifty-two
years old, broke down apd wept
when informed that his wife and
child were dead. 1t is the first news
ne has received of them since he
started his wanderings.
He was captured through the vigil
ance of detectives who kept on his
trail.
One Saturday afternoon he re-
manned in the bank after other EN-
ployes had left. The next morning
he was seen leaving town with a
black leather valise. When the bank
opened on Monday, the vault was

called and after two days work the
vault was opened and the theft dis
covered.
The theft included $250O of the
building and loan association funds
which had been kept in the bank.
Search for Heller. was started at
once and he was traced to Nova
Scotia, Liverpool, England, to Nun
ich, Germany, to the far east, and
then to Los Angeles. Then the trail
was lost and an effectual escape was
believed to have been made.
He always managed to keep one
step ahead of the detectives. The ar
rest was made in Hellers office
where he was doing business under
the name of L. w. Smith.
