coffee to patients suffering from

The results have surprised me, and
now frequently use it as medicine
in affections in which prostratiOn of

In the case of one lady whose pros

Two Bad Editors.

The paragraph which appeared in
the Millville Republican recently, to the
effect that two Cumberland County
editors would probably be brought
before Judge Reed, at the October
term of the Cumberland Courts. has
caused considerable comment. What
the editors are to be punished for no
man knows, although Mr.. Newlin init
mates that the charge against them is
libel. Who the offending editors are
is also a query. Elfreth, of the Tran
script, contends that he is one of them.
Gwynne, of the Sunbeam, believes that
Nichols, of the PIONEER, is undoubted-
ly one of the two because of his as
saults on bogus civil service reform. -
Applegate, of the Neacs, intimates that
Cheesman, of the Patriot, is one of
them because of his general belliger-
ency, while Cheesman in turn argues
that the proprietors of the Neaos are
undoubtedly the two individuals re-
ferred to. A few weeks, however, will
decide the matter, and until then each
and every newspaper man in the coun-
ty must wait in patience.

For the PIONEER.
A VOYAGE IN THE BAY.
CEDARVILLE. Sen. 8 1

CEDARVILLE, Sep. s, 1885.
EDITORS PIONEER:-On September
list company of twenty-one started
on pleasure trip from Cedarville, on
the schooner Alice Ogden" com
manded by Capt. Benz Ogden. We
sailed for Maurice River Cove to get
some oysters, then anchored for the
night at the mouth Of the River.
While there we received call from
the captain of the schooner Cashier 81
who induced three of our companv TO
visit his boat. We were treated to
watermelons, one of which we tried to
smuggle on our boat, but in some wav
it was discovered, and we had great
difficulty to obtain even a bite.
About O'Clock Wednesday morning
we were awakened by hearing the
neighborlng oyster schooners prepar-
ing to leave for their days work. 1t
was indeed a pretty sight to see so
many vessels under full sail coming
down the river. The captains saluted
us as they passed. After partalling of
hearty breakfast prepared by our
genial cook, Mr. r.. Colvin, we started
for Sea Breeze, and went ashore as the
warner was leaving. There was n
company there from Bridgeton, amon~

wife. In the evening we had an en-
tertainment given by our literary So
ciety in the ladies cabin.
We left Sea Breeze early Thursday
morning, crossed the bay to Woodland
Beach, visited the grove and plaved
game after game suitable for picnics
The Buffalo Bill of our party captured
hornets nest, and we then went on
the boat and started up the Delaware
river. Anchored for the night at Del
aware City. In the evening we all
took stroll into the city We went
to the wharf to see the steamer from
Phila. come in, and visited the Della

very large boats let into the Lock
then over the step into the canal. The
vessels by going this route save three

fourteen miles long. Friday mornin1

Burglars at it Again.

Since last Spring there has been a
lull in the robbery business in this
city, but on Sunday the campaign of
burglarism was resumed. The resi-
dence of Chas. G. Davis, on Bank St.
was entered on Sunday evening while
the family were absent. The thieves
lit a lamp and deliberately marched
through the house, opening the cup
boards, ransacking closets, bureau
drawers, upsetting the beds and bed,
ding, and finally going through the
pockets of Mr.. Davis clothes which
were hanging in closet. The rascals
secured very little of value, taking
only few coins which had been kept
as relics Fortunately for Mr.. Davis
he had taken the precaution to leave
large sum of money with neighbor,
and thus it was saved.
The same evening about dusk, a
burglar went to the house of Captain
Philip Burch, on Walnut street, re-
moved pane of glass in one of the
windows where a shutter was open.

The Reason Why.
st. Nicholas.

Several persons have recently asked
why the PIONEER has not made allu-
sion to the alleged irregularities of one
of our merchants, the particulars of
which were given to the public through
the Philadelphia papers a few days
ago. Our answer is that we have never
published the disgusting details of
scrape of that kind in the PIONEER in
the past, and we do not propose to in
the future. We mean to keep our col
umns clean. Beside that, there is no
public interest to serve by such publi-
cations, because many worthy people
are always injured or effected by them.
If the principal alone, in such affairs,
could be reached without detriment to
others, it might be well to publish mis-
deeds of the character alluded to. but
even then it should be couched in de-
cent language. There are many news
papers i'll this country, the columns of
which are filled with slang and stencil,
but we are happy to state that the
PIONEER is not one.

Affairs in Old Greenwich.

1t is not often that young graduate
of medicine will condescend to become
a peripatetic vender of decrepit time
pieces-an itinerant clock tinker, in
other words. The village of Green
wich was lately favored with visit
from person who made pretentions
to being both doctor and a clock
tinker. He gave the name of Earl
Eston, and excused himself on the plea
that he took such business as tramp
ing in order to become better acquaint-
ed with the world. 1t transpires, how
ever, that he is well known to at least
one gentleman in the town, who knows
very little good of him, and much that
is bad. His correct name is Washing
ton Clark, and he halls from the county
seat originally. Delaware kept him
in limbo for awhile for an assault upon
a woman. To say the least he is un-
worthy of confidence, and those who
read this may well take warning
The weather still continues to be un-
favorable for the tomato crop which
ripens very slowly. The canning fac
tary runs intermittingly, about two
half days in week thus far 1t is
feared that the crop will in a large
measure, prove a failure. Good, dry,
hot weather, and late Fall, may yet
do much for them.
For some reason politics is remarka-
bly, dull. There is no talk at all, only
an occasional word dropped as it were
casually, reminds one that we are to
elect an Assemblyman this Fall, and
that some one must first be nominated.
Is it the dull weather, or are the can
didates afraid to broach the subject?
However it may be, we may tell you
in confidence that Greenwich Town
ship expects to furnish the man this
time.
Peaches are moving quite lively
The steamer Champion takes several
hundreds of baskets twice week, and
the cars take a great many more.
The prices seem not very high, but is
apparently improving.

unlatching the catch. Mrs. Burch
who was sitting in the room at the
time, noticed the hand as it was thrust
through, and at once gave the alarm.
Her cries brought her husband They
ran to the door just in time to see a
short, thick-set man running violently
down the street. The neightorhood
was alarmed, but the thief escaped.
If these robberies are to continue it
will be we'll for house keepers to be
prepared for the thieves One or two
of these burglars shot dead in their
tracks, would be a wholesome lesson to
the fraternity of rascals which has
been practising its thieving arts in
this city during the past year.

Unwise Action.

The action of the authorities of the
Agricultural Society of this county in
sending to Cincinnati, Ohio, for post
ers and tickets for the Annual Fair
was an insult to the printers and pub
fishers of Bridgeton. There are in this
city four printing establishments, and
there was no necessity for the society
going away from home for its printing.
Further than that the work can be
done better here, as a comparison with
the printing done in previous years
plainly attests. Going away from
home for work which can be done Just
as well here, is wrong in principle, and
detrimental to the business interests
of the county.
