POMONA GRANGE Picnic.

POMONA GRANGE PICNIC.
The third annual social gathering OF
the Changers, their friends and families,
took place yesterday at the Fair Grounds
In Mount Holly. Every year increased
interest is manifested in the gathering
and the attendance increases accordingly.
Yesterday there was good, bracing air,
although there was fair breeze from the
sun as well. People from all parts of the
county and from more remote points were
present, and all in all the occasion was
more of success than in the years pre-
vious. The large buildings we're thrown
open for the use of the picnickers, and
they proved an excellent substitute for a
grove.
In the afternoon quite fair audience
assembled in the grand stand to listen to
some addresses by distinguished Grangers.
1t being expected that Mrs. A. G. Bristol
of Vineland, Lecturer ofNew Jersey State
Grange, William A. Armstrong, Master
of New York State Grange and Mr.. Jones
of Binghampton would be present. The
latter speaker, however, was the only one
who put in an appearance and he held his
audience for nearly an hour with some
well-directed remarks at the tendency of
the times to degrade labo, aud the indie
pendence of the farmers. He exploded
the ides that any fool could be farmer
and in referring to the Grange he said the
present elevated condition of the farmer
was due to it more than any other cause.
A string band discoursed music for
dancing which was INDUCED in until dark
The attendance was very great and SO
scattered as to be impossible of estimat-
ing the number.

Disastrous 1ncendiary Fire.

Disastrous Incendiary Fire.
About halfpast six o'clock on Friday
evening last fire broke out in the sheep
house on the premises belonging to John
Hough of Philadelphia, at Arney's Mount
between the Jobstown turnpike and Ju-
liustown. The premises are tenanted by
John Mitchell. The flames extended
quickly to the larger outbuildingF, and in
thirty minutes from the time the fire was
discovered the buildings which were large
and numerous were burned to their foun-
dations. The dwelling house, ice house,
small stable and part of the wood shed
were saved after hard work, but excepting
the house they were of small account in
value compared with those lost. The
entire product of the farm In hay, wheat,
rye and early potatoes was destroyed, and
the loss is very heavy.
At first it was supposed that the care
lessness ofsome one smoking on the prem
ises caused the fire, but it could not be
shown that such was the case. Two men
were threshing in the large barn but had
left for home some time before the con-
fiagration, aud the sheep house was dis
lance Of more than thirty yards from the
threshing floor. Horace Danley, a small
boy of rowing disposition who has no pa
rents or guardian, had been staying at Mr..
Mitchelps for several days, and during
the day Of the fire he was working in the
potato patch with two of Mr.. MitchelPs
farm hands, about one hundred and fifty
yards from the buildings. Just before
the fire broke out the men sent him
after the COWS and, we understand hurried
him along by rude kick. He brought
the COWS up and put them in the barn
yard. He then went to the house, shaved
some kindling wood, and asked Mrs.
Mitchell if he should build fire in the
cook stove. She replied in the affirm
alive and he built the fire. He then went
down in the rear of the sheep house and
fed hog and on his return to the house
called to Lizzie, Mr.. MitchelPs daughter
that the barn was on fire.
There were no other men on the farm
at the time except the two men in the
field. They had been together all the
time. These suspicious circumstances
led to the arrest Of Young Danley and he
is now in Jail. His character is bad for
boy IA years of age.

generally good work is done by "the

While the weak6shing is not as good

developed far above the usual run of the.
fish. At Barnegat Bay last week and this

each. For several weeks those taken

fewer in number, moot of them earning
the title of "tide-runners," which is only
given to fish from one and a-half pounds
up. School fish may be encountered at
any time of day, and may afford steady
sport for hours, but the older fish are
seldom taken except at the turning of the
tide, when they continue to bite for an
hour or more and then disappear. The
school fish when hungry will tackle
