ALMA ENTERS into
SECOND MARRIAGE
Couple viii Soon Take An Apart
ment In This City.

Every cloud has silver lining"
said Alma Granger, nee Bintliff, aft
ter her second marriage to Raymond
Granger at 11.45 Tuesday night, ex-
actly 72 hours after license had
been issued. The couple had been
married about three weeks ago fol-
lowing an elopement to Media, Pa,
after which the parents of the bride
had the young couple arrested,
charyinv the groom with misdemean-
or and the bride with perjury.
The groom was held under 81 900
bail for court, which was furnished
by Frank H. Wing, while the bride
was given into the custody of her
parents. II was soon realized how
ever that the couple were not to be
separated, for regardless of what was
done to keep the pair apart they ar
ranged to meet nearly every day.
Alma was then given her choice
of her home or her husvand and she
took the latter. The marriage took
place in the home of Mrs. Thomas
Kelly, of Cooper street. The home
was beautifully decorated through
out and the ceremony was performed
by Rev. James w. Livingston, of the
First Baptist Church, this city.
Mr.. and Mrs. Granger intend to
take an apartment in this city in the
near future. At present they are
making their home with Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas Kelly.
The bride wore dress of gold
lace, with golden slippers and stock
ings. The bridesmaid, Mrs. Bessie
Kelly, wore a brown gown of chif-
fon silk. Thomas Kelly was the best
man. The wedding march was play
ed by Mrs. Helen Bray, who, with
Miss Frances Adams sang "Oh Prom
Use Me"

BURLINGTON COUNTY
AGAIN IN THE LEAD

When the income tax lists for the
South Jersey district were made pub
lie at the Camden Internal Revenue
office last week it was shown that
Burlington county was entitled to an
other place of prominence, two of its
citizens being at the top of the list
for size of contributions to the gov
ernfent from their incomes.
Eldddge r. Johnson, of Moores-
town, president of the Victor Talking
Machine Company, paid the largest
individual income at the Camden Of
fee, he turning over $542, 627.30 out
of his earnings for 1924. The second
highest payer in Camden was DR.,
John T. Dorrance, of Riverton, presi-
dent of the Campbell Soup Company
His return was 1921, 854.60. There
were some other mighty substantial
and sizeable payments, but these two
were outstanding, just the same as
Burlington county is in many re-
spects.

NED" HOOD SHOOTS FIRST
PUSH POLE OF SEASON

Much excitement was caused the
past week when it was announced
that Med" Hood was displaying a
push pole which he had shot during
a cunning trip and he is now the re-
cipient of the merry razzberry.
The reason for the razz is this.
Ned, accompanied by John Peanuts
Hughes started out bright and early
on Labor Day to bring down few
rail birds. So far so good. They
hired a boat from Captain Edward
Bintliff, who also furnished them
with push pole which is used to
push the boat through the swamps.
While the push pole was being
used by Peanuts, Ned for some. rea-
son took pot shot at the top of the
pole and blew it all to smitherens.
John however kept his head and
jumped overheard, thinking, we pre-
sumo, that an aerial attack was be-
ing made and the boat in which he
was an occupant was being made the
target.
The boys made shore safely and
used all the back streets of the city
in trying to make their respective
homes without being seen by "the
gang" In this they were not SO
fortunate, as word soon spread that
the boys had returned with new
species of bird. We have heard of
shooting clay pigeons, rabbits, deer
and birds but never have we heard
of one gunner shooting piece OF
wood out of his comrades hands.

PAST COUNCILLORS IN SESSION

The Burlington County Past Coun-
cilors' Association of the Jr. o. u.
A. NJ held largely attended meet
ing in the hall of American Star
Council, No. 81 at Bordentown, on the
night of September End.
Interesting addresses were made
by the Rev. l.. L. Hand, of Trinity
M. E.. Church, Bordentown, a Past
State Councillor and member of FL
deity No. s, of Millville; State
Council Secretary, Edward 7. Bar
clay, of Trenton; State Council Con-

BIGGEST HAUL MADE At Third AND BROAD.
SMALLER JOINTS YIELD CHEAP "MOONSH|NE'
Only One Beverly Policeman Called On To Take
Part. Edward X. Reynolds Is Complainant

Shorn and four members of the State
Police took this red light inn.
A big haul at this place was no
doubt expected as it proved to be
the meeting place of the other men,
bers of the raiding parties. There
were five cases of high powered beer
and five pints of whiskey seized. The
proprietor was held under $1,000
bail.
Fate seemed to be against the pro-
prietor of this hotel as he had just
purchased the business the day be-
fore from Andy Amber, who has been
running the place for some months.
The new proprietor's name is Barney
Sipowizz. (he's Irish)
Officer Stevenson, in an interview
stated, Il only did my duty, ! want
no credit" but he animated that he
would have someone, presumably an
officer of this city on the carpet for
nearly splitting the beans" Whether
the officer in question intended tipp-
ing off or not was not said but the
Banner" reporter noticed that there
was one officer in particular who was
walking around with a nervous tread
in the vicinity of Broad and Third
streets.
These raids all go to show what the
Banner" has been advocating for the
past six months and that is Beverly
has and is again today wide open"
A member of the WCTU was heard
recently to say There is not place
in Beverly that is selling as much
liquor as the Banner continually
states" We think that the lady in
question will retract the statement
which she has for some reason made.
We can only sumnise why the other
Beverly officers we're left in the
dark and were not called on to take
hand i'm the raiding parties and we
are going to let the readers draw
their own conclusions.
The rum ring has been caught red
handed but they are far from being
wiped out.

COLORED WOMEN ARRESTED;
CHARGED WITH ISLANDER

Mrs. Frederick Foreman, of Third
street, and Mrs. John Emerson, of
Laurel street, were arraigned before
Police Justice Thompson on Tuesday
charged by Mrs. William Henry, of
Broad street, with SANDER.
1t appears that Mrs. Foreman and
Mrs. Emerson were circulating re-
ports that Mrs. Henry was keeping
speakeasy which Mrs. Henry EN-
phatically denied and swore out a
warrant causing the arrest sof the
two ladies.
They pleaded not guilty and as the
evidence was insufficient to impose a
Jail sentence they were released upon
paying the costs of the case which
amounted to $500 each. AN parties
concerned were colored.

State Police Wipe Out Beverlys Rum Ring
McCLOSKFY MAKES EN-
KISS AND MAKE Up
Husband Has Never Taken Wife To
Movies. Married Seven Years.

When it comes to patching up fam
lily quarrels, Squire McCloskey is
away ahead of the time. William
Faunt, of Riverton, was arraigned
pefore McCloskey yesterday morning
on charge of neglect preferred by
his wife, who charged that her hus-
band was away from home three and
four days at time, and when he did
come home he was nearly always
drunk, which resulted in her getting
abused.
Mrs Faunt entered her complaint
with the Mount Holly authorities and
which was promptly turned over to
Justice McCioskey, after it was init
mated that the Riverton authorities
would not make out a complaint.
McCloskey, after hearing both sides
of the case, during which time Faunt
admitted that he stayed away from
home and did not provide for his
wife and children, said if he was
given another chance he would turn
over a new leaf.
Mrs. Faunt at first objected to CIV
ing him another chance and threat
ened to press the charge, as she said,
81 have been married seven years
and my husband has never as much
as taken me to the moving pictures,
and have always worked and pro-
vided a home for him and the chill
dren" At this time spectator in
the office of the Justice dropped his
oar in the water and muttered some
thing about Mrs. Faunt trying to
collect the pay of her husband while
he was an employee of Ryerton
concern.
The Justice at once called for or
der and severely reprimanded the
man, threatening to hold him for
contempt of court.
After lengthy conversation to the
parties involved, by McCloskey,
which brought tears to the young
wife and fit nervousness to the
husband, an affectionate reconcillia-
ton was held by Mr.. and Mrs.
Faunt, and they left the court arm
in arm, with the warning that if
Mr. Faunt did not do the right thing,
the same charge could again be re-
vived and which would mean 80 days
of hard labor.

A special meeting of Common
Council was held in the City Hall last
might with all members present. The
meeting although scheduled to start
at o'clock was for some unexplain-
able reason delayed until $50.
The minutes of the last meeting
were read and approved.
Councilman Donaldson moved that
an ordinance providing for the licen-
sing of vendors be placed on first
reading, which motion was carried
A motion was then made that the
said ordinance be adopted on first
reading, which motion was lost.
Mr.. Lauinger moved that the
Board of Assessors be notified to
assess every bill board located in the
City of Beverly as such are listed as
personal property, which motion was
carried
The bill board question was first
brought before Council some weeks
ago by a petition which was pre-
scented by Broad street residents who
protested against the Trenton Post
err Advertising Company placing
bin boards on the corner of Broad
and Pine streets. Council was no.
tilted by Attorney Clifford r. Pow
ell that they had no jurisdiction
over the boards and it is thought
that Council is taking this action of
taxing said boards for the purpose
of exterminating them.
President Parsons then asked for a
motion giving the Board of Educa-
ton permission to convert the South
wall of the City Hall into black
board. Mr.. Stevenson made the mo-
ton which was carried.
Councilman Brown then offered
the following resolution:
WHEREAS, 1t is believed to be to
the best interests of the taxpayers of
the City Of Beverly that the water
supply service be administered under
the direct control and ownership of
the City Government, and

VENDORS ORDINANCE AGAIN
TURNED DOWN BY COUNCIL
Donaldson Fights For Merchants Till
Last Minute.

Common Council at meeting held
in the City Hall last might put the
"kibosh" on the vendors ordinance
which was offered by Councilman
Donaldson, in behalf of the mer-
chants of Beverly.
The ordinance, which had already
been voted down at regular meet
ing, provided for the licensing of
hawkers and peddlers coming into the
City of Beverly.
Councilman Lauinger at once at
tackled the ordinance, claiming that
if these were the only ones who
were to be taxed the ordinance was
not worth publishing. He also cited
the fact that the Beverly merchants
who went from door to door would
have to pay fee along with the
non-residents who took the money
out of town.
The ordinance in question would
not however provide for any hawker
who would come into town and park
his car at certain spot and sell di-
rect to the consumer from that one
spot. According to the ordinance,
which was presented, he would have
been business man of the city and
not hawker, but still he would be
taking money which he might coll
lect out of town. Neither did 1t
cover the licensing of the chain
stores or the foreign bread trucks
which come into our city daily.
Quite lively discussion was held
by the various Councilmen after the
meeting and all, with the exception
of Donaldson were for the licensing
of each and every merchant in the
city.
