The ..woman Catcher.

The people of Salem having been intim-
idated for several years by a character des-
ignated as the "Woman Catcher" who
masquerades in women clothes and fright
IL folks, the City Council has at last
taken the matter in hand and offered a
reward of $50 for his or her capture. The
South Irseyman says that this crank's
actions have caused all the young men
around town to carry revolvers to defend
themselves from the Woman Catcher "
from which we infer that the Salem young
men are easily ''skeered," and their fire.
quent visits to Woodstown are thus ac-
counted for. They are afraid to stay in
Salem at night.

A Esaape.

Elwood G. Peterson, with a couple of
companions from Woodstown, was at Avis
millpond near Daretown ON Tuesday. fish
ing near the dam. A German, from Pole
Tavern, whose name we did not learn, who
was there at the time, stepped on the ice
close to the bridge where the water was
deepest and broke through. He caught on
the ice but was unable to help himself, and
had not one of the Woodstown party
caught him and dragged him out, he must
have drowned. On being rescued he made
a straight course for home.

The SwedesborO Glass works.

A prominent resident Of Swedesboro in
forms us that the stock of the new Glass
Manufacturing Company there, to the
amount of So DOC, has all been taken and
directors elected for the company, but no
site yet selected for the works. IS, 600 of
the stock was taken by citizens of Swedes-
boro, the balance by a number of glass
blowers. 1t seems like an unfayorable
time to m enterprises of this kind
in the present dulness of the glass trade,
but those in the business seem to have con-
fdence that the prostration is but tempo
rary.

A Successful scholar.

Samuel Olipl,ant, son of William OH

the form of the income of a certain sum of
money left to the college by a wealthy
vested and the income annually applied in
this way. The sum received by Mr.. Oil
plant was so.

That 5 Reward.

Apropos to the offer of $50 reward by
Salem Council for the arrest of the "Wo-
man Catcher a Pilesgrove man. who is a
claimant for a share of the $500 reward
offered for the capture of Sullivan, sug-
gests that it would be wise for whoever
captures the Salem outlaw to secure the
reward i'll advance. But then the Salem
Councils are not the Board of Freeholders
and perhaps they do business differently.

The Elmer GLASS Works.

The glass works at Elmer, which have
been advertised to be sold at Sherif-s sale,
it is now said will not be sold in that
manner, having been disposed ofby private
arrangement to a company of glass blow

that the works may be entirely successful

Thrifty PIGS.

Jehu l.. Allen slaughtered on Monday,
two sixteen-months old pigs, which had
been fed only on hard corn and ordinary
slops from the kitchen, without meal.
They seem to have enjoyed their rations
however, for they tipped the beam at 412
and 453 pounds respectively.
Talking about pork, Constable Coles
favored us last Tuesday with a look at his
big hog, which is undergoing the fattening
process, although where he can find a place
to pile ON any more fat puzzles us. Mr..
Coles has been offered $50 for the ''critter'
as he stands but refuses to sell.
