Letter from Box Elder.
Box ELDER. Jan. 25t

Box ELDER, Jan. 25th.
Thus far 1884 has been favored with
beautiful weather, which puts the sheep
men in excellent spirits. Their bands
look very well; the only damaging fea-
ture being the high winds which makes
it quite difficult for the weak ones, but
so far have had no losses to speak Of
A letter received by resident of Box
Elder, from a friend in Boston, who hap
pened to be in warehouse when some
wool arrived from here, said they pro-
nounced wool from this section or from
the vicinity of Maiden, as very good
and very clean. Tally one for this
little corner of the universe. Sleigh
riding is jolly but would do just as well
with the mercury 25 degrees higher
and snow 25 degrees deeper, as a young
man run his sleigh astride a large
bolder near here, recently. The two
ladies, as well as himself, said they did
not care for the walk, so started out.
They were quite weary when they
arrived home. The cold driving snow
was very unpleasant company for the
weary pedestrians. We hear it whis-
pered around that there is to he another
party. given soon. With the pleasant
times we have had we cannot but an
ticipate much pleasure at the one
limited at, for great events cast their
shadow before them.

A Few Facts.

France alone has 5000, 900. 600 In
silver, and yet we never hear of their
vaults bursting, while in the United
States, the very home of silver, so far
as production is concerned, we have
not to exceed $500, 900, 900, of which
the government actually owns not to
exceed $50, 600, 900; and yet this
pittance is making the enemies OF
silver howl from one end of the
nation to the other.
1t is notorious fact that during
the time the mints of the United
States have been coming $Is6, 900.
900 of legal tender dollars, the British
Imperial mints of India have actually
coined $22o, 900, 600 in silver; and
yet England has no interest in depress-
ing the price Of this precious metal
of course not She it is, for her own
greed of gain, who fixes the price of
onr product, and we are the fools who
submit to it.

From an interview with H. w. Child.

ent reporter, we condense the following,
That with 60 stamps, "a pans and II
settlers, the company is treating $50
tons of ore per day, expecting to in
crease to 200 tons per day after the first
of tho month, and estimate, from

present developments, 212,50O tons in
sight, which would yield n net profit o.

Bullion Production.

]. ]. Valentine, vice president and
general superintendent of Wells, Fargo
& Co., furnishes the following state
ment of the bullion production of all
the States and Territories west of the
Mississippi and also British Columbia
and portions of the west coast of
Mexico. for the year 1883:
The Mineral argus. [volume] (Maiden, Mont.) 1883-1886, 1884-01-31

1t will be seen that there was fall
ing off in all of the above states and
territories with the exception of Mon
tana, Idaho and Mexico, showing that
development in the latter named, is in
its infancy comparatively. There is
no question but Montana will double
the output of 1880, &c., 900, within
two years, if not in 1884.

COMFORT.
Across rough country in open con-
yeyances with stations from sixteen to
thirty miles apart, in mid-winter, of
course there is not much; with more
stations, better stock, close coaches,
less whip and more water, passengers
will have to walk less and of course the
trip will be more pleasant.

Hog Cholera in New Jersey.

In every county in South and West Jersey
the hog cholera is now raging, and its
spread is SO rapid and the rate of mortality
SO large that farmers are greatly exercised
about it. 1t is thought that it first appear
ed at Pemberton, where it is still epidemic
and from whence it has extended In At
lantic county and along the coast it is es-
pecially severe. The Superintendent of
Senator Gaskill's farm near Pemberton,
gives it as his opinion that the disease is
not the true hog cholera, but something
more of the nature of pleuro-pneumonia in
cattle The hogs lungs are effected. Many
porkers are dying i'll the vicinity Of Pauls-
boro, Gloucester county. The cholera has
also obtained a firm foothold in Warren
and Mercer counties and will most likely
run through the entire State.

AS stated in this paper last week, the
trial of the dairymen in this county charged
with offering for sale impure milk, was
postponed until Friday, when both sides
will be represented by counsel. AS the
Salem County Milk Producers Association
has taken hold of the matter, the Execu-
tive Committee, Messrs. Josiah Wistar,
Joseph Waddington and Elias Buzby, to-
gether with the President, Casper w.
Acton, secured o quantity of milk from the
three dairymen, whose milk was con-
demned, which they shipped on Tuesday
of last week to Prof. Trimble, the WELL
known Philadelphia chemist, for analysis.
This milk, though taken from the cows
the evening before it was shipped under
the personal supervision of the committee,
and thoroughly cooled and iced, was sour
by the time it reached its destination. The
chemist informed them that it would not
make as good II showing as the sweet, and
yesterday other samples were sent, this
time by Mr.. Josiah Wistar, member of
the committee.
The dairymen say they intend to have
the matter thoroughly tested, as it seems
to them unfair that milk should be con-
demmcd that has not been adulterated.-

AS the passenger train for Woodstown
left Gloucester on Sunday evening, a Mon
IToR reporternoticed something lying on an
opposite seat in the car, with its feet i'll the
aisle Being impressed with the grace of
this parsonage, the reporter watched him,
and after awhile saw cantaloupe gradu-
ally emerging from the pockets of the
sleeping mans trowsers; and said canta-
loupe ultimately fetched up on the floor.
On arriving at Harrisonville station, the
sleeper awoke and made a precipitous rush
for the door, thinking he had arrived at
Salem, but on finding his mistake he re-
turned. Some one called his attention to
the stray load of truck, which he picked up,
cut in pieces, offered a piece around, vol
unteered to the MONITOR that II chucked a
brick out of my (hic) pocket up there at
Harrisonville, and with lugubrious
chuckle he proceeded to devour the prodi-
gal cantaloupe.

An Enjoyable Party.

On last Friday evening merry party OF
young ladies and gentlemen assembled at
the residence of Joseph Turner The oeca-
sion was a party given in honor of Miss
Lena Turner and it proved to be one of the
most pleasant affairs Woodstown has seen
for some time. Music, games and social
conversation made the time pass pleasantly
and rapidly until eleven O'Clock, when all
were invited out ON the lawn to partake of
bountiful repast that was spread on the
long and handsomely decorated table. A
neat souvenir of the occasion was a button
hole boquet found at each guests plate.
In the centre of the table stood an immense
pyramid of fruit, made up of peaches,
grapes, canteloupes, pears, apples and other
fruits intermingled with beautiful flowers.
Around the yard were hung vari-colored
Chinese lanterns and lights, and with the
airy costumes of the Young ladies the
scene was one of fairy like splendor. After
refreshments the festivities were resumed
for a time, when every one returned to
their home, highly pleased with the eve
ning's enjoyment.
Among other present We noticed Miss
Ida Hilton. Miss Mamie Finley and Miss
Anna Mcneil, OF Philadelphia, Miss Mamie
Paullin, of Hurtfyille, Miss Maggie Elwell,
of Salem, Mr. SEdw Wilson, of Spring
Mills, Mr. Edgar Shivers and Frank Bauch-
nah, of Swedesboro, together with many
of Woodstown's Young ladies and gentle
men. t4ttf HHt Wxu E44N

Spontaneous COMBUSTION.

On last Friday night about 8 o'clock,
some one of the family at Jacob S. Ped
rick's looking toward the creamery saw
flames starting from the coal bin. The
alarm was given and the fire subdued.
Examination revealed the fact that the
soft coal in the bin which is built against
the wall of the boiler house, had taken fire
on the outer side of the bin where it was
exposed to the rays of the sun, and it is
supposed that it had become wet from leak
age from the steam pump running out and
under the coal, and heated under the suns
rays during the day with the result stated.
Measures have been taken to prevent any
further accidents of this kind. 1850 8
