ARRv ED HOME.

William Brown and William Halter,
who went South. with Jos. r. Elkin-
ton to command his sturgeon fleet i'll
Tampa Bay, arrived home ON Thursday
evening. Miss Lola Elkiuton is still
in Florida.
Mr. Brown does not think Mr.. Elkin-
ton died with the yellow fever, rs he
did not act at all like Mr.. Brown did
last winter when he had j. and Mig
kinton nursed him. He thinks n-
Elkinton had been properly d0ctored
he would have got well, His trouble
was constipation, not having a passage
for thee or four days. He says there
is an %appropriat ion of about $50 to the
physicians for each Ease of yellow fever
and that often accounts for there being
so much yellow fever wheCe there is al
Ways more or less sickness. To illus
trate. When Mr.. Halter arrived in
Florida he had an i'll feeling which was
cured with Il dose of 'Jobie," yet when
he told a doctor his feelings, he was
told he had the yellow FEVER. The ply
stefan told Brown he did not think Mr..
EIkinton's body would ever be brought
North.
NJ. Halter fell through the trestle
work of a bridge two weeks ago and
has been suffering from the effects ever
since. They both had to run the quar-
aptine by buying several local tickets
before they got out Of the fever district.

There is a great glut In the apple
market at resent, The crop, not only
in the al lle growing New York coun-
ties, but througn out thu FEAST, West and
the Canadas has BEEN 4 -ormous, conse-
~qnently the home markets are over
stocked and the expor. trade democrat
lied, owing to recent exceptionally
large shipments, Notwithstanding which
fact the expectation o. apples last week
reached over 100, 900 barrels. One
county alone in New York is said to
have produced upwards Of 100000
barrels. There are millions Of barrels
stored awaiting shipment to market
and commission merchants express a
fear that the growers will, from ne
cessity, throw the greater portion of
these on the market before the present
surplus IS goc en- rid of, and thus not
only inhict a real loss on themselves,
but still further demoralize the market.
On Saturday apples were selling, in
La ge lots, at from 81 to 50 a barrel.

A young man of Pedricktown who
has his best girl in Swedesboro went to
see her one Sunday night recently and
did not get home until nearly morning,
which makes Il good long visit in these
long nights. 1t was afterwards found
out that it was not the girls fault of his
being away all night. He put his horse
and buggy under the church sheds and
went to meetin'-oue Of those private
ones with two in the congregation. 1t
was a protracted meetin' and did not
dismiss until the small hours Of the
morning. When he went after his
horse he found the gates to the yard
locked aud he could not get his horse
and buggy out. He met q friend who
went and aroused some of his friends
and they all liHally succeeded in lifting
the buggy over the fence and led tie
horse out through the small gate. By
that time it was nearly morning. We
hope our friend will not get in such u
dilemma again.

A word about the "box"
business. The common way
is to sell you a box and throw
the Handkerchief in-that's
about what it amounts to.
Even coarse, common Hand
kerchiefs have a clipper look
when in a fancy box. We turn
the plan end for end-sell you
the Handkerchief cheaper
than you can get them any
where else and throw IN a

Friday by the sad news reaching US of
the death of our Captain, Jos. r.. Ell
kinton. We tried to feel uncertain
about it although we knew of his sick
ness. Therefore to learn the truth we
walked 10 miles and found to our sor-
row it was true and got there too late
to pay tine last respects possible to his
remains. They laid him at rest in a
strange land.
During his previous engagements
here he made a great many friends
who speak in the highest terms Of him
as a gentleman and express the deepest
sorrow for his sudden death so far from
his family and friends. l held a CONVEX
sation with the physician who attend
ed him through his sickness and he
stated he had a genuine case of yellow
fever.
We feel his loss very keenly, as it
has brought the sturgeon business to a
stand still with but little prospects for
the future. We were making prepara-
lions for spending a good winter Our
camp is located in the center OF Tampa
