Council Proceedings. All the members of Council were present at the stated meeting of that body on Tues- day evening except Messrs. Livermore and Merritt. After the approval of the minutes, bills for street work were ordered paid as fol- lows: E. Branson. $14.70; S. Stanley, $16.25. The committee reported that the turnpike company was willing to lay the drain at the end of the telford road as sug- gested,'but did not think it necessary to raise the crossing. Mr. McGeorge, of the ordinance commit- tee, presented, agreeable to instructions, a draft of an ordinance to lay a water tax on properties fronting on streets where mains are laid. On motion, it was laid on the table, where, if the present sentiment pre- vails, it is likely to remain. Mr. Ladd, of the Water Committee, re- ported that the extension had been laid on Mr. Newton’s new street. The con- nection, he explained, was made with the ten inch main on Broad street, in two hours by means of a new appliance that avoided the necessity of shutting off the water Under the old system of tapping the main, from six to twelve hours would have been consumed, with the water turned off and a portion of the inhabitants without water and the expense of the machine, $15, was covered in the economy of labor. The action of the committee was approved. Water bills .amounting to $214 were ordered paid. Mr. Ladd stated that he had expected to submit the contract and bond for putting in the new pump, at this meeting, but a telegram from Mr. Merrill explained the absence of the contract and bond by the fact that he had been away from home,and that its execution by him had been delayed. He therefore moved that when Council ad- journ it be to Monday, June 29th, at four o’clock p.m.for the pnrpose of approving the contract and bond tor putting in the new pump, and for examining and revising the Assessor’s duplicate. Carried. Mr. Ladd asked for instructions on the matter of turning off water where parties wanted it turned off for a short time. The right to turn water off and on was appar- ently misunderstood. Also, if Council de- sired the committee to adhere strictly to the Water Act. Our plumbers, he said, make connections without notifying the committee, or taking out extension permits. Mr. Sparks moved that the committee enforce the ordinances strictly as to plum- bers. Mr. Glover arose to ask the question whether or not a committee had any executive authority? He said that he con- ceived that the Water ordinance was the only guide to the committee. He thought the introduction of resolutions like the above was preposterous. The debate that followed was partici- pated in by Messrs. McGeorge, Jessup, Glover, Ladd and Sparks, and the point was brought out that the water ordioanc^ met every emergency except where houses were temporarily vacant, Alter the with- drawal of other motions on the subject, a motion by Mr. Glover that the matter be referred to the Water Committe to prepare amendments and submit the same to the next meeting, was adopted. Mr. Laud slated that the contract pre- pared between the city and the Gloucester turnpike company, to supply water for sprinkling the turnpike, had not been exe- cuted by the company. The company, he stated, wanted the water measured oft' by other methods than a meter, but they had not suggested a method that met the views of the committee. On motion the original recommendation of the committee was adopted. On motion of Mr. Burkett the Street Committee was authorized to replace the trunk across Packer at Green street, with a cobble gutter, also to cobble the gutter at Broad anil Dare street. Mr. Ladd moved that the electric light in front of D. C. Andrews’ residence be moved 45 feet nearer Cooper street, and the light on Euclid street be moved 30 teet nearer Cooper street, at the expense of the ooinpany. Helen ed to the street commit- tee, to recommend proper action to the next meeting. On motion of Mr. DuBois, Council pro- ceeded to elect members of the Board of Health to take the place of Wm. M. Carter and Thos P. Smith, terms expired. Mr. Glover renominated Mr. Garter and he re- ceived a unanimous vote. While the two First Ward members were caucusing, Mr. McGeorge renominated Thomas P. Smith and stated that Mr. S. had made a most efficient member of the Board. Mr. Du- Bois nominated Warner Underwood and in the election Mr. Underwood received five votes and Mr. Smith two. and was declared elected. A motion by Mr. Ladd that during the month of July Council meet on the 21st, and during August on the 18th, was car- ried. Orders were ordered drawn for the salary of the police, payable on July 1st. On motion of Mr. Burkett, the Surveyor was instructed to make the survey of North Broad street from the bridge to the city line. Adj. to Monday, the 29th inst. A Tribute. Trenton, N. J., June 18th, 1891. Mrs. Daniel F. Crean, Woodbury, N. J. Dear Madam—I am directed by a reso- lution of the State Board of Assessors, to convey to you the sympathy of the indi- vidual members of the Board, upon the loss you have recently sustained in the death of your husband. He was universally esteem- ed by all ot his associates, and the members of this Board bad hoped that his life would be spared,anticipating the benefit of his ex- perience and good judgment in the coun- sels of the Board, for which the Governor of our State had wisely selected him. I am yours with very great respect, JOHN T. VANCLEEF, Secretary of the State Board of Assessors. The Mayor and Justices. The hot weather of the past week seems to have given the legal mills a boom, as onr local records show the following cases; On Saturday night YVm. Treadaway and Alex. Hazett were brought before Esquire Koe on the charge of “drnnk and disorder- ly,’’ who imposed a line of J>10 on the form- er and $5 on the latter. Both fines were paid on Monday.

Probably in no school district in om State is there a more hearty snpport given the Trustees of the public schools in their efforts to make more complete and thor- ough the system of instruction, than in District No-1, of Gloucester county. The magnificent brick school houses, well furn- ished, in each Ward in the city, besides less pretentious buildings in outlying sections, attest this, as does the further fact that in the selection of teachers the best talent is sought and obtained. It is expected there- fore that at the end of the school year the public exercises of the graduating class in the advanced department will call together just such an audience as filled the Opera House on Thursday evening last to witness the “commencement” exercises of the grad- uates. The platform was decorated with ferns and flowers, and on the first row of chairs were seated the graduates. Others on the platform were Trustees Tatem, McGeorge and Mnlford, County Superintendent Galla- her, Messrs. W. Collnm Cooke, principal of the public school of Clayton, and principal Bowen, of Glassboro; ex-County Superin- tendent Brace, of Camden county, and Revs B. C. Lippincott and Tbackara of Wood- bury, and Sturgess of Camden county. The exercises were opened with prayer by Dr. Lippincott followed by a greeting glee by the class, The first essay was by Nevada Heritage, entitled “Education an Aid to Housekeep- ing." This was followed by a declamation by William T. Doughten, “A Good Start.’) William Wade Heritage lollowed with an original declamation on “Manhood,” and Lavinia Shivers captivated the audience with the beauties of her essay on “Beanty.’’ Morgan Dickerson, son of John Dickerson, a graduate of the colored school in North Woodbury, read an essay on the “Elements Requisite to Success.” Emerson McGeorge delivered the third declamation, on “Our Schools,’’a subject with which he evinced a full knowledge- “Past, Present and Future" was the subject of an essay by Miss Annie Reeves, and the educational part of the program was closed by a decla- mation by Edwin Owen, “Free Schools In- spire Loyalty to Country.” We have made no attempt at comment on any of the productions of the class, but think it is the universal opinion that the productions of each eyinced a care and thought in preparation which is compli- mentary to the faculty of our schools, and an evidence that- the public schools of our city are doing their full part in the great, work which the free public school system is designed to accomplish. Eev. F. R. Biace made an interesting talk to the trustees, teachers, scholars and the audience, and made some encouraging remarks to the graduating class. BeD.j. C. Tatem, the oldest of our trustees in years and in point of service in that ca- pacity, made an interesting review of the public schools ot Woodbury, covering a period of thirty years, and then presented the diplomas to the graduates. County Superintendent Gallaher made the closing address to the class. His talk was short, but to the point, and the class can carry his advice into every day life to their own profit. Miss Gertrude Merritt rendered the piano accompaniment to the “Class Song,"’ and the audience was dismissed with the benediction by the Rev. Sturgess. The Early Birds. Mr. John A. Brown, near Thoroughfare, commenced picking tomatoes on Monday, John G. Harker, of Gibbslowu, picked tomatoes for market on Wednesday, the 17th inst. Jacob Gunther, residing on the road from Woodbury to Almonesson, dug 80 baskets of round potatoes on the 18th inst.f and they were almost fully grown. Marriage of Mutes. On the 3d inst., Mr. George C. Saunders) of Gallitzen, Cambria Co., Pa., and Miss Lizzie Lord Hewlings, of Mantua, both mntes, were married at the residence of the brides parents, at Mantua, N. J., by Rev. Wm. Matthias. Our report adds, “They were a fine looking couple, and the cere- mony as handsome as in cases where all the faculties are perfect. A Remedy for the “Yellows.” Prof. J. B. Smith, entomologist at the New Jersey Experiment Station of Rutgers College, says: “The peach louse, which infests the roots of peach trees, is responsi- ble for much of the so-called "yellows” that exist in this State. Potash, in the form of kainite, sunk in the ground about the roots will lie found a remedy and at the same time a fertilizer. Tobacco nsed in the same way will have a similar effect.” Durell--Maimsbury. A quiet home wedding took place at the residence of Rev.E. H. Durell, Delaware St- 1 this city on Wednesday afternoon, the con- tracting parties being the Reverend gentle- man and Mrs. Elizabeth Malmsbnry, nee Skirm.of Trenton. The ceremony was wit- nessed by the children of Mr. Durell and immediate relatives of bride and groom. Mr. and Mrs. Durell left for Cape May on the afternoon train, where they will remain till July 6th, when they will take up their residence in Woodbury. School District No. 1. On Friday lest the Trustees of the alxive school district closed up the business of the past year and as far as possible prepared for the coming year. All the old teachers were re-engaged ex- cepting Miss Grimshaw, who resigned foi matrimonial reasons, and Miss Bngbee. whc will take charge of the Wenonah school Miss Ada Truitt has relinquished school teaching and entered the marriage state. ine new teacners engaged are Misses Emily Williamson, of Clayton, and Georgia M. Justice. Arrangements for the Jericho and Park avenue schools are not yet completed. Sale of Paulsboro Lots. The first public sale of lots this season by the Paulsboro and Billingsport Improve- ment Company, was held on the company’s tract last Saturday afternoon under most favorable circumstances—the weather being pleasant and tbe surrounding country clothed in summer’s bright colors. A shel- ter from tbe sun bad been erected and un- der this the sale was held. Thirty-six lots were sold at au average price of $154. The following is the list of purchasers and the prices paid H. G.

The State Weather Service issued the following bulletin on Friday last: During the first fiye days of the week the temperature was decidedly above (from 10 to 12 degrees) and during the last two, decidedly below the weekly average in all portions of the State. Very severe and de- structive thunder storms occurred on Tues- day and Wednesday in the eastern counties doing considerable damage, especially in Bayonne, Hudson county; Asbnry Park, Monmouth county; Plainfield and Eliza- beth, Union co unty- The rainfall for the week has been up to and in some localities above the weekly average and was most beneficial to all crops, besides putting the soil in good condition fcr cultivation, but was too late to benefit the hay crop, which has fallen off several points during the week owing to previous drought and the extreme heat of the first week. Prof. Smith reports that fruit trees, and especially apples, are being injured by plant lice. Where the insects attack fruit as well as leaves, or where they are very numerous, he advises spraying with either the whale oil soap, 1 pound to 8 gallons, or with the kersone emulsion. Bulletin 72 of the station should be consulted. To Contractors. The plans and specifications for a two- storv frame addition to the Home for Feeble Minded Women, in Vineland, New Jersey, are now ready for estimates, and can be seen in the office of H. E. Finch, architect, No. 144 East State street, Trenton, N. J. The bids will close on the Gth day of July, at 6 o’clock p. m. The managers reserve the right to reject any or all bids if in their interest to do so. All bids are to he sealed and endorsed “Proposals for bnildings at Vineland,” and sent to A. G. Cattell, Camden, N. J. A. G. CATTELL, 2t President Board of Managers. MULLICA HILL. Miss Rnblee, teacher of mnsic in South Jersey Institute, is the guest of Judge Stratton and family. Mr. Shelley was in town for a few days., Mr. Frye Hopkins, we are glad to state is feeling some better than he did a few days ago. The change of mail to the railroad is not satisfactory to the oeople, as communica- tions with Woodbury and other parts of the county is not so direct. Mail closes at 5 35 a. m. now. BRIDGEPORT. Capt. J. F. Truitt will run a night line from Lawrence’s wharf to Philadelphia again through the truck season. Capt. Geo. Richmond has his steamer nearly ready for business, and will start in a few days from Wm. Springer’s wharf. Remember the band boys will hold their festival Friday and Saturday evenings this week. Will “Uncle Sam” send his cruiser, the Charleston, in search of the fugitive bank president? Messrs. Clayton Stetser and Chas. Elwell commenced picking tomatoes last Tuesday. Freeholder Usinger has been repairing the county bridge by replacing the old planking with new. BARNSBORO. The Township Committee of Mantua township met at Tomlin’s hall last Monday for the purpose of revising or correcting if needed the valuations of property just made by the assessor. We understand there was not ranch changing. They also appointed J. Mason Tomlin Commissioner of Appeal in the place of Wm. C. Long, deceased. The cherry crop around here this year is large, also wheat and potatoes, with a light crop of hay and mosquitoes. There is talk of a Fourth of Jnly celebra- tion along the banks of Chestnut Lake by the members of the new Boat Club. An Indian Medicine Company with free ont door attractions, has the attention of our village these pleasant evenings. A change has been made in the Board of the district school Trustees, Mr. William C. Price being appointed by the County Su- perintendent in place of James A. Tomlin, resigned. Oar village blacksmith, Mr. Clement r. Tomlin, is kept busy these hot days repair- ing mowing, reaping, binding and thrash- ing machines, of which he is an expert and the work is always done in a first-class manner. Mr. Tomlin will be 70 years old on the (ith of July next, and he can beat any man in the county when it comes to working iron or steel. Our base ball team has lost its knocker ami is now hawling—McOinty. CLARKSBORO. Have had a nice rain, farmers and gard- eners thankful. The cherry crop is heavy and prices very good. Farmers speak of good white potato and grain crops. Harry I<each has a fine field of tomatoes and Nathan Smith’s sweet potatoes are among the finest. John Kerns says the Crown Jewell is the potato. He is now digging 400 baskets per acre. The new switch at the railroad station is completed and material on the ground for a new packing shed which is to he 00x20 feet. At last we are to have an early train to Philadelphia, to leave here at 5.63 a. m. Returning to arrive here at 7.17 p. m. Henry L. Haines has disposed of his coal business to H. G.

Baker A Bro. Gentlemen —I have used many brands of ferlil zero, but llnd your A. A. Phosphate and Special Fertilizers give the most satisfactory results and insure a good crop. O.H. TUTHILL. Cutchoaue, L. I., Sept. 30,1890. PITMAN GROVE. Pitman Grove items ought just now to lie plent iful,and no doubt they are. If Stroller could have found a little spare time the last week to looked about among the dry leaves and the green boughs there is every reason to believe that be could have picked up several good items. By the way, he did take one short stroll out 4th ave. one evening and was surprised to find a large post set down in the centre of the gateway usually left open and free for all comers who delight in pedestrian exercises. I wonder why that post (since removed I am told) was placed there? Certainly the Board, nor cither the Supt., do not wish to either exclude or retain the baby carriages with the occupants thereof. Children are all very nice in their proper places, and why is not a pretty grove a very suitable place for them, with the oppor- tunity of going outside occasionally to get a little sun light and fresh air. I am glad the powers that be regretted and recalled their hasty action and decided to leave the entrance free for the benefit of the little ones. He must be hard hearted, indeed, who could refuse a comfort or a blessing unto one of these. Our trains are now carrying many peo- ple back and forth daily between here and the city; the summer resident has come in full force. We are very glad to see them here and also very glad to learn that they show a strong disposition to assist the rights of every American citizen—freedom, liberty and independence. We hope that some time soon the W. J. R. R. Company will feel justified in giving ns accommodations and facilities here com- mensurate with the amount of business the station brings them- The fact of only one fast train stopping here, and the other sad fact of being compelled to have a sta- tion which will not accommodate one half of the people who patronize any one of the morning or evening trains, almost compels one to believe that the W. J. R. R. man- agement have adopted the famous expres- sion by the late Wm. H. Vanderbilt, “The public be d—.” Prospect Castle K. G. E. will give their second annual Fourth of July celebration at Wynne’s Pond, and all the Sir Knights are looking forward for a good time and wish the same for all their friends, whom they will be pleased to see on that uay in large numbers. Come one, come all, and the boys of the K. G. E. will do their best to give yon a good time. We are told also that Mr. Chas- Simpson and friends will raise a large flag pole near where the pike crosses the railroad, on the morning of the Fourth. Turn out lx.ys and help our friends in this desirable ob- ject, and make a grand raising of it. One good turn always deserves another. Mr. and Mrs. Matt. Congable lost their baby by death on Monday night. They have the sympathy of all their friends. Mr. W. S. Carter, the well known con- tractor, has been ill and confined to his honse for several days, bnt we learn to- night that he is improving slowly. Mr. F. P. Carter’s house, near Pitman, was broken into and completely robbed Monday afternoon, the burglars taking everything he had of value. Fortunately he and his brother, Chas. H.

Council Proceedings. All the members of Council were present

at the stated meeting of that body on Tues-

day evening except Messrs. Livermore and Merritt.

After the approval of the minutes, bills for street work were ordered paid as fol-

lows: E. Branson. $14.70; S. Stanley, $16.25. The committee reported that the

turnpike company was willing to lay the drain at the end of the telford road as sug-

gested,'but did not think it necessary to

raise the crossing. Mr. McGeorge, of the ordinance commit-

tee, presented, agreeable to instructions, a

draft of an ordinance to lay a water tax on

properties fronting on streets where mains

are laid. On motion, it was laid on the table, where, if the present sentiment pre- vails, it is likely to remain.

Mr. Ladd, of the Water Committee, re-

ported that the extension had been laid on Mr. Newton’s new street. The con-

nection, he explained, was made with the ten inch main on Broad street, in two hours

by means of a new appliance that avoided the necessity of shutting off the water Under the old system of tapping the main, from six to twelve hours would have been

consumed, with the water turned off and a

portion of the inhabitants without water and the expense of the machine, $15, was

covered in the economy of labor. The action of the committee was approved.

Water bills .amounting to $214 were

ordered paid. Mr. Ladd stated that he had expected to

submit the contract and bond for putting in the new pump, at this meeting, but a

telegram from Mr. Merrill explained the absence of the contract and bond by the fact that he had been away from home,and that its execution by him had been delayed. He therefore moved that when Council ad-

journ it be to Monday, June 29th, at four o’clock p.m.for the pnrpose of approving the contract and bond tor putting in the new

pump, and for examining and revising the Assessor’s duplicate. Carried.

Mr. Ladd asked for instructions on the matter of turning off water where parties wanted it turned off for a short time. The

right to turn water off and on was appar- ently misunderstood. Also, if Council de- sired the committee to adhere strictly to the Water Act. Our plumbers, he said, make connections without notifying the

committee, or taking out extension permits. Mr. Sparks moved that the committee

enforce the ordinances strictly as to plum- bers.

Mr. Glover arose to ask the question whether or not a committee had any executive authority? He said that he con-

ceived that the Water ordinance was the only guide to the committee. He thought the introduction of resolutions like the above was preposterous.

The debate that followed was partici- pated in by Messrs. McGeorge, Jessup, Glover, Ladd and Sparks, and the point was brought out that the water ordioanc^ met every emergency except where houses were temporarily vacant, Alter the with- drawal of other motions on the subject, a

motion by Mr. Glover that the matter be referred to the Water Committe to prepare amendments and submit the same to the next meeting, was adopted.

Mr. Laud slated that the contract pre- pared between the city and the Gloucester turnpike company, to supply water for

sprinkling the turnpike, had not been exe-

cuted by the company. The company, he

stated, wanted the water measured oft' by other methods than a meter, but they had not suggested a method that met the views of the committee. On motion the original recommendation of the committee was

adopted. On motion of Mr. Burkett the Street

Committee was authorized to replace the trunk across Packer at Green street, with a

cobble gutter, also to cobble the gutter at Broad anil Dare street.

Mr. Ladd moved that the electric light in front of D. C. Andrews’ residence be moved 45 feet nearer Cooper street, and the light on Euclid street be moved 30 teet nearer Cooper street, at the expense of the

ooinpany. Helen ed to the street commit-

tee, to recommend proper action to the next meeting.

On motion of Mr. DuBois, Council pro- ceeded to elect members of the Board of Health to take the place of Wm. M. Carter and Thos P. Smith, terms expired. Mr. Glover renominated Mr. Garter and he re-

ceived a unanimous vote. While the two First Ward members were caucusing, Mr.

McGeorge renominated Thomas P. Smith and stated that Mr. S. had made a most efficient member of the Board. Mr. Du- Bois nominated Warner Underwood and in the election Mr. Underwood received five votes and Mr. Smith two. and was declared elected.

A motion by Mr. Ladd that during the month of July Council meet on the 21st, and during August on the 18th, was car-

ried. Orders were ordered drawn for the salary

of the police, payable on July 1st. On motion of Mr. Burkett, the Surveyor

was instructed to make the survey of North Broad street from the bridge to the city line.

A Tribute. Trenton, N. J., June 18th, 1891.

Mrs. Daniel F. Crean, Woodbury, N. J. Dear Madam—I am directed by a reso-

lution of the State Board of Assessors, to

convey to you the sympathy of the indi- vidual members of the Board, upon the loss you have recently sustained in the death of your husband. He was universally esteem- ed by all ot his associates, and the members of this Board bad hoped that his life would be spared,anticipating the benefit of his ex-

perience and good judgment in the coun-

sels of the Board, for which the Governor of our State had wisely selected him.

I am yours with very great respect, JOHN T. VANCLEEF,

Secretary of the State Board of Assessors.

The Mayor and Justices. The hot weather of the past week seems

to have given the legal mills a boom, as

onr local records show the following cases;

On Saturday night YVm. Treadaway and Alex. Hazett were brought before Esquire Koe on the charge of “drnnk and disorder- ly,’’ who imposed a line of J>10 on the form- er and $5 on the latter. Both fines were

School Commencement. Probably in no school district in om

State is there a more hearty snpport given the Trustees of the public schools in their efforts to make more complete and thor-

ough the system of instruction, than in

District No-1, of Gloucester county. The

magnificent brick school houses, well furn-

ished, in each Ward in the city, besides less

pretentious buildings in outlying sections, attest this, as does the further fact that in

the selection of teachers the best talent is

sought and obtained. It is expected there- fore that at the end of the school year the

public exercises of the graduating class in

the advanced department will call together just such an audience as filled the Opera House on Thursday evening last to witness the “commencement” exercises of the grad- uates.

The platform was decorated with ferns

and flowers, and on the first row of chairs

were seated the graduates. Others on the

platform were Trustees Tatem, McGeorge and Mnlford, County Superintendent Galla- her, Messrs. W. Collnm Cooke, principal of the public school of Clayton, and principal Bowen, of Glassboro; ex-County Superin- tendent Brace, of Camden county, and Revs

B. C. Lippincott and Tbackara of Wood-

bury, and Sturgess of Camden county. The exercises were opened with prayer

by Dr. Lippincott followed by a greeting glee by the class,

The first essay was by Nevada Heritage, entitled “Education an Aid to Housekeep- ing." This was followed by a declamation

by William T. Doughten, “A Good Start.’) William Wade Heritage lollowed with an

original declamation on “Manhood,” and Lavinia Shivers captivated the audience with the beauties of her essay on “Beanty.’’ Morgan Dickerson, son of John Dickerson, a graduate of the colored school in North Woodbury, read an essay on the “Elements

Requisite to Success.” Emerson McGeorge delivered the third declamation, on “Our Schools,’’a subject with which he evinced a full knowledge- “Past, Present and Future" was the subject of an essay by Miss Annie Reeves, and the educational part of the program was closed by a decla- mation by Edwin Owen, “Free Schools In-

spire Loyalty to Country.” We have made no attempt at comment

on any of the productions of the class, but think it is the universal opinion that the

productions of each eyinced a care and

thought in preparation which is compli- mentary to the faculty of our schools, and

an evidence that- the public schools of our

city are doing their full part in the great, work which the free public school system is designed to accomplish.

Eev. F. R. Biace made an interesting talk to the trustees, teachers, scholars and the audience, and made some encouraging remarks to the graduating class.

BeD.j. C. Tatem, the oldest of our trustees in years and in point of service in that ca-

pacity, made an interesting review of the

public schools ot Woodbury, covering a

period of thirty years, and then presented the diplomas to the graduates.

County Superintendent Gallaher made the closing address to the class. His talk was short, but to the point, and the class can carry his advice into every day life to their own profit.

Miss Gertrude Merritt rendered the piano accompaniment to the “Class Song,"’ and the audience was dismissed with the benediction by the Rev. Sturgess.

The Early Birds.

Mr. John A. Brown, near Thoroughfare, commenced picking tomatoes on Monday,

John G. Harker, of Gibbslowu, picked tomatoes for market on Wednesday, the 17th inst.

Jacob Gunther, residing on the road from Woodbury to Almonesson, dug 80 baskets of round potatoes on the 18th inst.f and they were almost fully grown.

Marriage of Mutes. On the 3d inst., Mr. George C. Saunders)

of Gallitzen, Cambria Co., Pa., and Miss Lizzie Lord Hewlings, of Mantua, both mntes, were married at the residence of the brides parents, at Mantua, N. J., by Rev. Wm. Matthias. Our report adds, “They were a fine looking couple, and the cere-

mony as handsome as in cases where all the faculties are perfect.

A Remedy for the “Yellows.” Prof. J. B. Smith, entomologist at the

New Jersey Experiment Station of Rutgers College, says: “The peach louse, which infests the roots of peach trees, is responsi- ble for much of the so-called "yellows” that exist in this State. Potash, in the form of kainite, sunk in the ground about the roots will lie found a remedy and at the same time a fertilizer. Tobacco nsed in the same way will have a similar effect.”

Durell--Maimsbury. A quiet home wedding took place at the

residence of Rev.E. H. Durell, Delaware St- 1

this city on Wednesday afternoon, the con-

tracting parties being the Reverend gentle- man and Mrs. Elizabeth Malmsbnry, nee

Skirm.of Trenton. The ceremony was wit- nessed by the children of Mr. Durell and immediate relatives of bride and groom. Mr. and Mrs. Durell left for Cape May on

the afternoon train, where they will remain till July 6th, when they will take up their residence in Woodbury.

School District No. 1.

cepting Miss Grimshaw, who resigned foi matrimonial reasons, and Miss Bngbee. whc will take charge of the Wenonah school Miss Ada Truitt has relinquished school teaching and entered the marriage state.

Crop Reports. The State Weather Service issued the

following bulletin on Friday last: During the first fiye days of the week

the temperature was decidedly above (from 10 to 12 degrees) and during the last two, decidedly below the weekly average in all portions of the State. Very severe and de- structive thunder storms occurred on Tues- day and Wednesday in the eastern counties doing considerable damage, especially in Bayonne, Hudson county; Asbnry Park, Monmouth county; Plainfield and Eliza- beth, Union co unty- The rainfall for the week has been up to and in some localities above the weekly average and was most beneficial to all crops, besides putting the soil in good condition fcr cultivation, but was too late to benefit the hay crop, which has fallen off several points during the week owing to previous drought and the extreme heat of the first week.

Prof. Smith reports that fruit trees, and especially apples, are being injured by plant lice. Where the insects attack fruit as well as leaves, or where they are very numerous, he advises spraying with either the whale oil soap, 1 pound to 8 gallons, or

PITMAN GROVE.

Pitman Grove items ought just now to lie plent iful,and no doubt they are. If Stroller could have found a little spare time the last week to looked about among the dry leaves and the green boughs there is every reason to believe that be could have picked up several good items.

By the way, he did take one short stroll out 4th ave. one evening and was surprised to find a large post set down in the centre of the gateway usually left open and free for all comers who delight in pedestrian exercises. I wonder why that post (since removed I am told) was placed there? Certainly the Board, nor cither the Supt., do not wish to either exclude or retain the baby carriages with the occupants thereof. Children are all very nice in their proper places, and why is not a pretty grove a very suitable place for them, with the oppor- tunity of going outside occasionally to get a little sun light and fresh air. I am glad the powers that be regretted and recalled their hasty action and decided to leave the entrance free for the benefit of the little ones. He must be hard hearted, indeed, who could refuse a comfort or a blessing unto one of these.

Our trains are now carrying many peo- ple back and forth daily between here and the city; the summer resident has come in full force. We are very glad to see them here and also very glad to learn that they show a strong disposition to assist the rights of every American citizen—freedom, liberty and independence.

We hope that some time soon the W. J. R. R. Company will feel justified in giving ns accommodations and facilities here com- mensurate with the amount of business the station brings them- The fact of only one fast train stopping here, and the other sad fact of being compelled to have a sta- tion which will not accommodate one half of the people who patronize any one of the morning or evening trains, almost compels one to believe that the W. J. R. R. man-

agement have adopted the famous expres- sion by the late Wm. H. Vanderbilt, “The public be d—.”

Prospect Castle K. G. E. will give their second annual Fourth of July celebration at Wynne’s Pond, and all the Sir Knights are looking forward for a good time and wish the same for all their friends, whom they will be pleased to see on that uay in large numbers. Come one, come all, and the boys of the K. G. E. will do their best to give yon a good time.

We are told also that Mr. Chas- Simpson and friends will raise a large flag pole near where the pike crosses the railroad, on the morning of the Fourth. Turn out lx.ys and help our friends in this desirable ob- ject, and make a grand raising of it. One good turn always deserves another.

Mr. and Mrs. Matt. Congable lost their baby by death on Monday night. They have the sympathy of all their friends.

Mr. W. S. Carter, the well known con-

tractor, has been ill and confined to his honse for several days, bnt we learn to-

night that he is improving slowly. Mr. F. P. Carter’s house, near Pitman,

was broken into and completely robbed Monday afternoon, the burglars taking everything he had of value. Fortunately he and his brother, Chas. H. Carter, suc- ceeded in tracing one of the burglars, re-

covering nearly all of their property and landing the culprit in the Woodbury jail for trial at the Sept, term of Court.

This Thursday night is the election of officers of Prospect Castle. Come out all you Sir Knights and give a hand. Lively competition for some of the offices.
