a Counferfciier Convicted.

Jonathan Hughes was tried in the Fed
eral Court in Trenton on Wednesday on a
charge Of manufacturing and passing
counterfeit silver i'll Elmer, this county.
Secret Service Officer Bell arrested him at
the camp-meeting at Pitman Grove last
August. The prisoner led a double life,
that of a Christian and of a counterfeiter
On the night of his arrest he offered to
show the detective where his tools were
secreted. He supposed the officer knew.
and that it would be a good thing for him
when brought into court to have it shown
that he had surrendered his implements.
The officer, carrying a lantern, went with
him into the woods skirting the town, and
in the shade of a tree, beneath a pile of
leaves, discovered the tools, consisting of
plaster Paris moulds and the usual para
pllernalia.
The prisoner was convicted, and when
arraigned for sentence fell in a fit at the
Judges feet. Two physicians worked
with him several hours before he could be
removed. The sentence will be imposed
next Tuesday.

Smoked the wron. Corn.

One ofourtownsmen has, or had, a thrifty
field of corn, to husk which he secured the
services of a colored man from the classic
precincts of Baileytown. He directed the
man to the field and went about his other
business amid pleasant fancies of corn
dodgers, fried mush nicely Drowned, fat
hogs crunehing the golden nubbins, and
other fruits and consequences of the corn
crop. The employee he'd him merrily to
his toll. dreaming ON his part of the num-
Der of bushels that would fall to his share
and wishing that he had one of those patent
husking pegs that Pancoast X Lippincott
have in stock, and the yellow, yellow
corn that the grangers sing about We'd
nesday nights was piled up in shining heaps
across the field under his deft manipula-
ton, when something seemed to say to him
estop, poor sinner, stop and think
Before you further go!i
And the cold conviction forced itself
ohiilingly through his wool and down his
backbone that he was in the wrong field.
and instead of husking the FISHERMAN 5
corn 'son sheers' he was wrestling with
the iceman's crop, without orders. for
nothing a day and finding himself. What
ioreible use of the English language greet
ed the ears of the corn as he communed
with himself on his way ont of the field
and across The road into the proper patch
of ground. where the corn he was hired TO
husk awaited his services. onr reporter
saith not.

Most of our readers will remember hav-
ing seen, in crossing the Delaware from
Camden, a large tug which laid on the
Camden side Of Smiths Island or Ridgway
Park. This tug was the Argus, built at
Dialogues shipyard, Camden, in 1882, for
Jacob E. Ridgway, of Philadelphia, at a
cost of $40, 600. She was found to be too
large for service in the Delaware and has
proved To be an elephant on her owners
hands. Last week the vessel was sold to
John Damn, of Mobile, Alabama. for $685.
900. Since the sale the boat has been over
hauled and her machinery much improved.
She left the city last Tuesday for Mobile,
whore she will be engaged for towing and
wrecking purposes, extending her territory
to Pensacola and New Orleans.

After Mauy DAYS.

Two years ago A. w. Miller, who was
employed in r. S. Fogg's canning factory,
in this county, put in one of the cans of
tomatoes a bottle, inside of which was a
note asking the purchaser to send him
word how the tomatoes tasted. Nearly
two years passed by. and not hearing any
thing from the purchaser, Mr.. Miller al
most forgot about the affair. Imagine his
surprise a few days ago, however, when
he received a letter from Frank l..
Schlemin. of Chew's Landing, Camden
county, enclosing the identical note sealed
up by Mr.. Miller two ~yearsago. Mr..
Schlemin said lie found the note in Il can of
tomatoes which he purchased at one of the
local stores, and that the tomatoes We're
in first class condition.

We notice with pleasure that the time is
rapidly approaching when we shall have
no more to say about the new iron bridge
for the reason that will be finished and
very soon our people will be as much ae-
customed to it as il il had been there from
n time whereof the memory of man %runnetl
not to the contrary. But what under the
sun we Will have to take its place as Il
standing item. we are surc we can't tell.
1t is as good as Il circus and vastly more
instructive to watch the skilled mechanics
and their assistants putting in place the
heavy iron work which is to bear the
weight of person and property for genera
tons yet unborn. Each piece fits to the
inch and goes into place as easily as could
be desired, and it seems no more labor for
the workmen to build the structure than
for a child to construct Il house of blocks.
AT this writing both trlsses. the long net
work that reaches from one abutInent to
the other, a distance Of 20 feet, and sup
ports the weight of TIE whole structure.
are in place and the five heavy girders
which carry tile floor have been suspended
therefrom. The lighter pieces-railing,
stay-rods and looring-are to be put
in and if weather permits the bridge in
all probability be open for travel by
tomorrow evening. And a great i'm
provement it will certainly be to that
part of our town. and if the APP
proaclles and surroundings are put and
kept in a condition to correspond with the
structure in appearance and substantially
the value of neighboring property should
be increased.
In a conversation with Mr.. c. o. Brown,
of the Bridge Company, who was in Woods
town on Wednesday. he stated hat the
bridge would be Inspected for acceptation
by the building committee on Tuesday
next and he desired to have the Board of
Freeholders visit it officially on Wednes-
day.

Facts About The Now Postal.

Twenty-Five per cent. Of the new postal
card is wood pulp and seyenty-five per
cent. fine rags. 1t takes about twelve
hours to convert the raw material into the
cards, and between 1.000. 600 and 1.500. COG
of them are turned out daily. giving en-
ployment to about 1870 women ard girls.
They come from the press in sheets of
forty cards each. 1t costs 800 a month

card has a water-mark that Will aid in the
detectionof counterfeits. Even with a mil
lion turned out daily the demand is greater
than the supply.

cents a mile toll all the anne And the
Sunbeam is only stating a frozen fact. The
only reason why the company charges one

allow item to charge more. We notice
that dividends are declared with admirable

one thing. While some companies pretend
to keep their roads in good condition and
fail to do it, this company don't even make
a pr~etense, but just let it go.
