RED JACKETS LOSE
AT COLUMBUS Al

Beverly fans who enjoy pitchers
battle would have been more than
pleased at the game on Tuesday
night when our Johnnie Hughes was
bested by Ernie Dorm and Columbus
A. C. defeated the Red Jackets by a
score of Al.
1t was nip and tuck all the way
through. The Red Jackets opened
by scoring their only run on pass.
stolen bass, passed ball and Bor-
denis double. After that the hits
were few and far between. Columbus
tied the score in the 9Th, and scored
again in the 9Th and 7th but only on
overthrows.
Seldom in these days of the lively
ball and heavy hitting is there as
fast and exciting game played.
One hour and twenty minutes.
Bruchs on second played wonderful
ball. He handled everything that
came his way had two hits and
started the three double plays which
electrified the crowd. Spike" Love-
land, the Red Jackets new catcher,
caught fine game but failed to hit
safely.
The Red Jackets play Bright A.
c., of Riverside, on their home
grounds Monday, June 22nd, and re-
turn to Columbus for game on
Tuesday, June S0th.

FIRST JUNE ELECTION BRINGS OUT SMALL VOTE.
PRINCIPLE FIGHT WAS FOR COMMON COUNCIL.
Stevenson Runs High. Kept Under Cover Until
Sure He Was Elected. Police Blacken Grant

Freeholder and the relegation of
George w. Rogers to the sidelines by
the Republican voters means that the
grip of the contractors on the Board
has been broken, that the people will
come into their own next January
for there is no question as to the
Messrs. Stout and Fisher being
elected at the general election.
1t is quite prevalent that there was
a large, sum of money in this city
being used to get the votes but it
was not loosened until after 6 P.
M. at which time it has been said
that 100000 was needed to get the
vote out in the first ward. AS it was
not long after this statement was
made that the vote came out it is
generally summised that the 100000
was forthcoming.
1t is quite evident however that
someone was sighted for various re-
ports have it that one of our leading
politicians received 100000 for his
share of the campaign and only
spent $4,000, and as the general
supposition is he put the rest in his
pocket. This is what several of our
Women's Republican Clubs call
"Clean Politics"
The following report shows the
Republican vote in full for both
wards:

KU,KLUX KLANsPARADE
AT MOUNT HOLLY SATURDAY
Was Feature OF ORGANIZATIONS Cele-
bration OF Flag Day.

Members of the Ku Kiux Khan from
number of sections of New Jersey
joined the Burlington county organ
ization in a celebration of Flag Day
in Mount Holly on Saturday, the fea-
ture of which was a parade that
night. The size of the parade was
considerably less than had been an
ticipated by the public, reports hav-
ing been circulated that several thou
sand would appear in the procession,
but the actual number was under
600. The line was made up of men,
women and few children, headed
by the Hope Band, of Bordentown,
and started from the fair ground.
Thousands of people from ali Sec
tions of the county were on the
sidewalks to view the unusual spec
tacle and probably never before
were there so many automobiles in
the town. At no point was there
any disorder; both paraders and
spectators acted in very decorous
manner.
Nearly all the Klansmen were
hooded and gowned; few wore no
masks, including the Kleagle, James
r. Bennett, of Columbus, who head
ed the procession
A float from Bordentown carrying
cross, and cross formation of a
score of paraders in special uniform
were features of the procession.
During the parade an airplane with
two electrically lighted crosses at
tached circltd above the town and at
tracted much attention.
After arriving at the fair ground
exercises not open to the public were
conducted, and there was display
of fireworks.
Traffic was considerably congested
when the parade passed through Mill
and up Main streets Also after the af-
fair was over, but there were no ser
ious accidents. A few collisions of
automobiles occurred but the damage
was trihing
The police were assisted by State
troopers and about thirty men fur
nished by the Khan, in directing traf-
fic. The Khan trafficman were sworn
in as special officers for this occasion.

Supervisor under the direction of the
State Board. The object of this was
to insure uniformity throughout the
State. In compliance with a new
State law, the class was presented
with small booklets containing copies
of the Declaration of Independence,
the National and State Constitutions.
Professor Dilks then turned the class
over to Mr.. Hopkins, president of the
Beverly Board of Education for the
awarding of diplomas.
In his address to the class Mr.. Hop
dns complimented them on their
most attractive appearance. He urged
them to work hard, striving always
for a good education, moral char
acter and life of service to man
kind "But with it ALL" he said, "Be
happy and smile. Do your work
well and enjoy life" He asked the
parents and citizens before him to
regard the class valuable invest
ment, one of greater worth than
could be computed in dollars and
cents. "These children to date" he
said in part. represent in their edu-
cationan expenditure of nearly $500

EDGEWATER PARK
ELECTION RETURNS
J. P. Bryan Bites The Dust After
Sensational Fight

Heated controversy over "The
Books" in which James p Bryan was
the principal actor failed to put a
dent in the election of Harry j.
Adams for member of the Township
Committee.
This fight was easily the leading
issue in the Primary election of
Edgewater Park Township. 1t was a
last stand fight on the part of James
p. Bryan and he strained every nerve
to bring about his nomination to the
Township Board and every ruse
known to practical" politics was
employed to gain that end. Even the
dirty and contemplate iast-hour at.
tack on Edgar B. Jordan and John c.
Beatty, charging discrepancy which
is said to be unaccountable as far back
as 1912. Bryan so timed his out
break that there was no chance of a
comeback or public rebuttal before
the primaries. But this outbreak
proved to be boomerang, it reacted
so swiftly against Bryan and the vot-
ers responded with vote Of 1870 for
Adams and SO for Bryan.
Bryan, in a circular letter, which
was sent to all voters in the Town
ship at the very last minute declared
that when Township affairs are es-
tablished upon an honorable basis
honorable men will be willing to
serve and also declared that Edgar
B. Jordan must resign from the Com
anittee, and if he did not within a
reasonable length of time, action
would be taken to have the office de-
clared vacant. 1t looks as though
Mr.. Bryan who has so long been in
active in politics is trying to stage a
comeback.
The Republican returns for Edge
water Park Township are as follows:
Governor, Whitney, 142; McCran,
35; Doremus, 81; Assembly, Powell,

PUBLIC SCHOOL CLOSING
EXERCISES BIG SUCCESS
Professor Dilks Praised For Present
ing Unique Program.

|
What is generally regarded as the
most interesting closing exercises of
recent years was held in the Bever-
Lee Theatre last Friday evening by
the Beverly City Public School.
An unusually attractive class of
thirty-one graduated from the eighth
grade and was awarded diplomas
thus permitting them to enter Bur
lington High School next fall.
The program was arranged by Pro-
fessor James B. Dilks, supervisor of
the Beverly Schools and was dis
tinct departure from the plans of
previous years when the exercises
were held in a smaller room, with
elaborate preparation of music, speak
ers and numerous recitations by
pupils
One thousand tickets were distri-
buted this year and enabled double
the number of previous years to at
tend. The theatre was crowded to
capacity; not less than $50 persons
being the estimate of the attendance.
The building was comparatively cool
with numerous electric fans running
and exits and windows wide open.
| At eight o'clock the exercises be-
gan with the showing on the screen
of a short educational film, picturing
life among the Indians of the South
west
Edward P. Atzert, of the gradua-
ton class, then made an address of
welcome. An essay on my Business
of Growing Up" was presented by
Frances j. Lewis and Mary W. Mer-
rift recited "Jane JONES'" These were
received with enthusiastic applause.
The house lights were then dim
med and screen entertainment Civ
en- including Aesops Fables and the
feature picture Wolfe and Mont
calm" showing early scenes of Amer
lean history as reproduced by the
Yale University Press,
William Robbery, son Of Council
man Kolberg, read the class history,
telling how no less than fifteen of
the graduating class had been to-
gether all through the school from
the first to the eighth grade. "Bill's"
history was well written and was de-
livered in clear voice with good ex-
prssion. He highly praised his teach
ers, many of whom are still teaching
in the school.
The class prophecy by Dallas Uhrig
was also we'll given. His boyish
dreams of the wonderful things
awaiting his classmates brought fire.
quent laughter from the audience.
Dallas, himself, had big future pre-
dicted for him as the big Pipe" in
the Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry Co.
The real fun came when Deuel.
Rice read his class win. The gifts
bestowed upon his classmates were
indeed intriguing and ran from alarm
clocks for the tardy ones to anti-fat
for the buxom.
Two class songs written by mem
bers of the class, Edna Adams and
Dorothy Williams were exceptionally
good and received "big hand"
The graduating class went upon
the stage and Supervisor Dilks made
few remarks, telling how in recent
years the examinations of the grad
uating class were prepared and the
markings checked by the County
