During An kmterVteWs
Shaking the soil of New Jersey from
their sandals three Mahometans from the
far away land of East India picked up
their traps Monday and came to this
city, arriving here in the afternoon.
They were followed through the main
streets by large crowd of children, and
finally applied for lodging at the Della
ware House on Market street,
but were refused admission. YEARLY
they took to the street again, and finally
found resting place at the establishment
of Stansbury Murray, No. 104 East Front
street. There on Tuesday morning q
GAZETTE reporter found them. They
were in q row clothed in the raiment of
their country, consisting of white togas,
blouses from the neck to the knees and
pantaloons resembling tight wrapping
of cloth.
Novu Chez, who could speak little
English, was inhaling and emitting clouds
of white smoke from fragrant cigarette,
while the dreamy, far-away look in his
glittering jet black eyes suggested that
his thoughts were OH the country of fruits,
spices and flowers. Their dusky faces lit
up with curious expressions upon noticing
the scribe.
"Come from New Brunswick. We
great eye doctors cure nil trouble; blind
ness, too from India. My name Moon

write it," said the reporter, handing
him pencil and paper. He started to do
no, when his companions threw up their
hands and gave vent to loud lamentations
in their native tongue.
The reporter urged the wayering Moon
Chez to go ON, when his brethren became
fierce and threatening. Finally he
handed back the paper, shaking his head.
They expect to remain in this city several

OF the new steamer launched by the
Harlan q Hollingsworth Company on
Saturday the Baltimore Sun says: 1.-THE
new steamer was to have been named the
Howard B. Ensign, but owing to objec-
tions raised by General Ensign to having
steamer named for him, it was decided
on Friday to have her called the Joppa.
This is the third time General Ensign has
declined the honor of having his name
on the wheel-houses of steamers. Fol-
lowing up the idea which OBJ
tanned in the company when
the Avalon was named, of selecting some
cognomen associated with the early his
tory of Maryland, the name of Joppa was
selected for the new steamer, because that
was the name of city laid off on the
Gunpowder river, Hartford county, in
ancient days, and designed to become the
metropolis of the state. But Baltimore
overshadowed Joppa,and all TINT remains
of the old buildings to-day are afew half
buried ruins, hid in the summer by clam
bering vines, rank weeds and tangled
shrubbery. The name of Joppa, however
is pleasant historical memory, and the
Maryland Steamboat Company wish tt
pay tribute to this feeling in giving thu
name to the finest steamer and flagship o.

TlIREE CARD MONTE.
A Sussex COuntian Taken for
a.rae,,h0rT. butt He wouldn't Fit,

a Sussex COuntian Taken for n
G.reenhOrn, but He wouldn't Bite.
While walking along Water street be-
tween French and King, Mt noon Tues
day, an nged Sussex county farmer, who
is a Juror at the present term of the
United States court, was approached and
accosted by q pleasant looking and middle
aged man, Who courteously asked the
rural gentleman where he was from and,
when told, whether or not he would take
some handbills down the State and have
them distributed.
The farmer readily consented to the
proposition and was requested to step
around the corner, where the handbills
were said to be. He was conducted to
the barber shop and cheap variety store
on the southwest corner of Front and
King streets, kept by Robert 7. Valentine.
When he entered the establishment the
handbills were not there, but he was in
formed that man had gone after them
and that he would return soon.
In the meantime the sharp began to
| exhibit samples of cloth and offered tc
make the soil tiller n suit of clothes foi
as low as So. While this part of the
| game was being enacted, IL seedy-lookinG
individual excitedly rushed in, drew
from his pocket handkerchief contain
ing large roll of money, threw thre,
pieces of pastebonrd upon a table ant
said eNow isn't that damn stuff will
which to make so much money!" Mt tn,
same time pointing to the huge roll o
greenbacks.
The Sussex countian, not so verdant n
he looked, saw through the thing Mt ono
and instantly manifested his intention o
departing. The land shark who inveigle.
him into the place earnestly pleaded wit
him to remain few minutes longer ,assui
ing him that the handbills would 500
be brought in, but the old man was fri
and was allowed to depart unframed an
without being robbed.

A YTCTIM OF RABIES.
The Unfortunate s.Dog Fat MAN"
Falls m Victim TO HydrOphObia.

The UmfOrtumAte "DOS Fat MatHp'
Falls "a Victim TO HHydrophobia.
The police Monday afternoon arrested
supposed crazy colored man named
Nathan Williams, living over Eleventh
street bridge, and his mania was pro-
nounced to be caused by hydrophobia.
Shortly after o'clock the almshouse
ambulance ARRIVED at police station and
the unfortunate man heavily manacled
was carried to the vehicle by four officers
raving and crying, Don't kill me!n
When arrested by the officers he was
chasing, knife in hand, another man, and
he made several unsuccessful attempts to
bite the policemen. While lying i'll the
cell he moaned necessarily: "0h God,
this great pain y and then with harsh
demoniacal laugh: Its just IL miles
from here to Brownsville" He had hardly
been confined in the almshouse when he
announced that he was good watch dog
and continued to yelp and bark through
out the night and frequently gave vent to
prolonged howls.
Many readers of the GAZETTE will
recognize Williams as the sold dog fat
man" For a number of years, Mt his
home over Eleventh street bridge, he has
manufactured what he called the only
remedy for rheumatism. He would col
lect all the canine carcasses he could get
from the dog catcher and elsewhere, and
boil the fat and sell the grease at 81 per
bottle, and he had many customers.
A police officer states that he has often
seen the unfortunate man take large
hunk of dog fat and eat it with evident
relish. 1t is thought that his terrible
disease was brought ON by having eaten
some of the ment of mad dog. He
used to drink the grease in large quanti-
ties and advertised it as both an internal
and external remedy. He is about go
years old, coal black, has high cheek
bones and his appearance is very repul-
sive.

CLAYMONT.
A Factory which Was Not Btiift---
,U,s,.. Vsaxv from Clyde HILL


The View from Clyde Hill.
special Correspondence Of Gazette and journal
CLAYMoNT, April 10.--About eighty
acres of land extending from the pike to
the Delaware river, and bounded on the
south by Naamans creek, belong to Coe
a. Richmond, the great fertilizer manH-
facturers of Philadelphia. This farm,
formerly belonged to the Churchman
estate, and was bought by the firm named
above for the purpose of establishing n
fertilizing factory upon it. The people
of the neighborhood got up petit
ton, however, to prevent this,
claiming that such an establishment
would be detrimental to the best interests
of Claymont, and thus the establishment
was prevented. II is said the people
here objected more to the class Of persons
that would work in such n place than to
the establishment itself. A hundred men
would have been employed. Frank
Danaenbaker occupies the large house ON
the farm, and the half-dozen smaller ones
are occupied by laborers and worlmen of
the neighborhood. The grist mill on the
place is occupied by Hopes n Brother,
but the saw mill is in dilapidated con-
dition and unlikely to ever be put i'll re-
pair.
If there were lots for building purposes
for sale here, within easy reach of the
station, it is thought they would sell like
hot cakes. There are some most beautiful
building sites ON the farm of the late
Thomas Clyde, but not foot of ground
will be sold. Mr.. Clyde had intended
building mansion on the hill, a number
of years since, but died without having
done so. This site is one of the most
beautiful in the vicinity, aifording com
manding view of the river, New Jersey,
Chester and the church spires of Philadel-
phia. 1t is called "Clyde Hill"
j. Edward Addicks, wife and daughter,
arrived home from New Orleans on
Thursday evening. They give some in
teresting accounts of their trip in the
sunny south.
Mrs. L. l. Roberts has moved to Phila-

TIE JERSEY FrsHERMEv.
Governor Albeit to Take Action
Against this state,s Fish Laws

Governor Albeit TO Take Action
Against this states Fish Laws.
A telegram from Trenton, New Jersey,
on Monday, says:
Governor Albeit has referred the
question of the jurisdiction of Delaware
over Delaware river fisheries to the attor-
general, and pending his decision,
will take no action. The dispute arises
from the fact that under an old grant the
State of Delaware claims everything in q
circle with radius of 10 miles around
New Castle. This reaches across the river
to the Jersey shore for 70 miles above and
below New Castle. In 1872 the same dis
pute caused conflict between the two
states, and there were fierce personal
encounters between Jersey fishermen and
Delaware officers. There were some
negotiations then, but the matter dropped
without settlement.
1.-THE present trouble comes from law
passed by Delaware this winter, forbid
ding fishing within the disputed districts
by any one not a resident of Delaware.
A Cumberland county sturgeon fishing
company expected to set 40 men to work
at Bay Side to-day, but received a notice
from Delaware authorities warning them
not to do so. At the time of the trouble
in 1872 Governor Joel Parker issued q
proclamation on behalf of New Jersey
Jurisdiction over the Delaware TO the
centre of its channel through it's whole
length below Port Jervis. 1t is expected
that Governor Albeit will stand by the
ground then taken, and will notify the
Bay Side company to go on with its fish
ing and protect itself from interference
at all odds. In case it should be neces-
sary the governor will give more material
state protection to the fishermen. Definite
action is expected Tomorrow
The Philadelphia Ledger of Tuesday
says:
"Several gill fishermen from Salem
county, who were fishing off Port Penn,
were informed that the authorities con-
templated arresting them, and they sold
what shad they had and returned to their
homes. At Pennsgrove yesterday a large
number of fishermen were busy loading
their boats preparatory to leaving this
morning for Stoe creek, where they will
commence fishing.
.eThere are ut present about SO boats
operating in the bay from Salem county,
and others will go into service this week.
"A meeting of fishermen was held mt
Pennsgroye last evening, ut which they
expressed determination to fish in the
bay as usual, unless prevented by over
whelming numbers.
Captain Joseph d. Whitaker, assembly
man from Salem county, stated yesterday
that he anticipated reply from Governor
Albeit tomorrow in relation to his con-
ference with the encouragement. He
also stated that there were invested in
boats, nets and other paraphernalia about
$3.50, 900 for sturgeon fishing, and about
$3.50, 900 for shad fishing. From 500 to
600 men from Pennsgrove, South Penns-
grove, Pennsville and Pedricktown, it is
said, are engaged in the fishing business
ut this season of the year.

has carried on dress making over Will
sons cigar store, has removed to the resi-
dence of Charles Anderson. The room
formerly occupied by her has been leased
by the Middletown orchestra.
Colonel Hates, w. H. johnson and
John Dickinson, whilst ducking near
Blackbird Landing yesterday, made a
narrow escape from the flames of burn
ing marsh shortly after putting ont their
decoys. The cattails had been set on iire
after the gentlemen arrived and the wind
drove the flames toward them Mt rapid
rate.
From the appearance of peach trees
examined ON Sunday last one would feel
assured of crop. There are plenty OF
buds, hut they are very small; this, how
ever, is not Mt all II bad sign it is
more encouraging from the fact it
shows that some days (and warm
ones, too,) must yet elapse before
they will open ont in bloom. ! lind on
close examination that they all appear
healthy, but what effect yesterday and
last night may have upon them is yet tc
be seen. Should one-fourth the buds
prove good the trees will have enough
| fruit on them to insure large and pretty
fruit.
