A Bordentown Lady's Age.

The following is verbatim copy of a
letter from lady residing in Bordentown,
filed in one of the departments at Wash
ington, in addition to her application for
a position. The writer made an applica-
ton and omitted to state her age, and
upon being notified Of the omission, she
replied in the following facetious style:
II hope you will pardon the error 1
committed when sending my application
in supposing that a lady's age was her
own private affair. In the State of New
Jersey, the concealment ofage is as sacred
a custom as the yelling of female faces in
Turkey; and Jersyman would no sooner
think of infringing on this article of
woman's rights, than a Turk would of
tearing off a Turkish woman's veil. In
my unsophisticated ignorance supposed
the laws and regulations of etiquette
which govern my native State extended
as far south as Washington, but l will
correct my error by informing you that
/ was born A. d. 1857. If l am to infer
from the number of my application that
there are 1879 to be recognized in ad-
vance of mine, greatly fear that I shall
be too old for clerical service before that
number is reached"

A Shooting Affair.

A Shooting Affair.
For some time past Henry Cook, col
ored, has been on too intimate terms with
the wife of John Max6eld also colored.
Both parties were employed as walters at
the Arcade hotel, Maxfeld being the
head of the department. Several times
! Maxfeld warned Cook to stop but he paid
no attention to it, further than trying to
convince Maxfeld he was being accused
unjustly. On Friday night Maxfeld hid
himself in his yard on West Washington
street, and awaited developments He
also had four of his friends out of sight
across the street. They did not have long
to wait as the gay young coon soon came
In sight and proceeded at once to enter the
.Maxfield domicile as though it was his
own. He knocked at the door and then
jumped behind bush being afraid that
the injured man would respond. He did
not open the door but instead opened fire
on Cook. When Cook heard the bullet
whistle by him he started to run and
Maxfeld fred again this time shooting
him in the head. Cook by this time had
reached the gate and laid down back Of
it. Maxfeld fred the third time but with
no effect as Cook had fortified himself be-
hind the gate. Max6eld then ran up to
the gate and leaned over and fired direct
ly down at him, the shot taking effect just
above his right thigh. Maxfeld then pro
ceeded to hammer him over the head with
his pistol and done him some severe
damage. Maxfeld on Friday tried to
borrow revolver from William Owens
but was refused but afterwards secured
an old four barrel pepper box" pistol
somewhere with which he done the shoot
ing. HIS has left town and none of his
friends seem TO know his whereabouts.
After the shooting Cook went to the Office
of DIR. R. E. Brown who extracted the
ball from his head but was unable to find
the one in his back. Cook is a married
man his wife residing on West Washing
ton street.

Fire.

Fire.
On Monday morning about $40 o'clock
the large dwelling house on the farm
recently owned by ex-Sheriff John B
Hankinson and which the Fl. B. Smith
Machine Co., recently purchased was dis
covered to be in flames by lad employ
ed on the farm. The farm is now occu-
pied by Joseph Engle who had just seated
himself at the breakfast table. Upon
an investigation Mr.. Engle found the fire
to be in the roof of the main building
and had apparently been burning some
time as when he attempted to enter the
loft he could not on account of the dense
smoke which filled it. The alarm was
soon brought to Mount Holly and the
Good Intent and Relief steamers were
taken to the scene with horses. The
nearest water of any quantity was the
creek which is about six hundred yards
distant The Good Intent steamer was
taken to the creek and pumped into a
barrel from which Relief engine took the
water and passed it to the burning struct-
ure. As long delay necessarily ensued
before the water was on hand the entire
house was total loss and nothing re-
mains standing but the chimneys The
fire was caused by sparks from the kitchen
chimney which lodged in the caves of the
roof of the main. building. Mr.. Engle
saved all his household goods except
some articles in the attic, including all
of his dried meats. The household goods
were insured for $500. The house for
$4,000 in the Springfield Fire and Marine
Company of Massachusetts. The fremen
returned home about ten o'clock in the
morning wet and tired party, but with
the satisfaction of knowing they had done
all in their power to save the property.
A large crowd from Mount Holly and
Srnithville we're at the fire and while
some assisted and done good work, other
excitable individuals done more damage
to articles they tried to save than
good. The marble mantles for In
stance were torn loose and thrown in a
heap on the ground, many being broken
by this usage. The household goods
received very rough treatment and il
would have been as we'll if many Of
them had been burned. 1t is always this
way and will be until our fire department
is organized with chief and assistants.

Don't Say So.
A man who says he is not able to pay
for paper ought to go at once to the
county court and have his wife appointed
his guardian. Remember that a news
paper is worth more to family than a
three months school. A family that
takes paper, lives, as it were, in house
set upon hill, from whose windows he
can see all that is going on in the world.
Do not say you are not able to pay for
your home paper, or say you would rather
live in ignorance; or declare that you do
not want your children to learn anything;
but don't say that you can't pay-becanse
to say you can't pay, is to say you are no
man, have no backbone and ought to be
in the poor-house.
