THE CASE OF CAPT. ARMIES.
Revocation Of the Order for Inquiry
Into His Sanity by an Army Board.

Had it not been for the intervention Of off,
cial authority, Capt. Geo. A. Armes, retired,
would today have appeared before board of
army surgeons at the medical museum for ex-
animation as to his sanity. But he didn't 20,
for he received notice from the War depart
ment last night to the effect that the original
order had been suspended and that the board
would not assemble. Although this latter
order has temporary tinge it is practical
revocation and the chances are that Capt
Armes will never be tried by an army board as
to his sanity. This action by the department
rather surprised people, but it is probably the
most sensible thing that could be done under
the circumstances.
THE UNKNOWN COMPLAINANT.
The first order was issued on the complaint
of a party whose name the department was
determined to keep a secret, instructions being
given to the board to this effect. This would
have necessitated degree of secrecy that
would seriously embarrass the board in its in
vestigations and probably lead to no results,
1t would have been extremely difficult for the
medical men to pass judgment on the case,
and there would be much adverse criticism of
the action of the department.
THERE ARE MANY PRECEDENrs
for such actions, however, for many an officer,
for sanity and incarcerated in an asylum when
its lack was discovered. The original order
was not at all extraordinary, but when the
authorities came to review the case, consider
ing the existence of courts of law near at hand,
they concluded that it were better to stop
their proceeding, especially as they had
received an intimation from the complainant
that he preferred to have recourse to the
BETTER, sURER AND MORE REGULAR METHOD
Of determining Capt Armes' mental condition
a legal court. Where such emergencies arise
at frontier, away from civilization and courts,
such summary means as medical boards are
necessary when suspicion is entertained as to
an officers sanity, but where there are no such
obstacles it is always better to leave the matter
in the hands Of the civil authorities. That is
the principle upon which the order was re-
voked.
Capt. Armes is acting very shrewdly in this
matter and is undoubtedly advised by wise
men. He was fully prepared to meet the med.
ical officers this morning aud had q number of
friends ready to accompany him to the museum
to give their evidence. He threatens to bring
suit against Gen. Schofeld, who, as acting Sec
retary Of War, issued the order convening the
board to examine into his mental state.

HER WAYS.

10 recall hundred ways OF hers
When she was angry, glad, or shy. or loving;
How she would pat her little foot, perverse;
Or throw her arms about my neck, thus proving
The life that lay beneath her futtering breast;
How her blue laced lids would slowly rise,
And give me only glimpses Of her eyes
Eyes where dear Love hid, but to me contest.
These, and hundred other woman's ways
Come back to me, as sit here and gaze
Into the dimming coals whose gentle heat
Feels on my cheek like her warm lips SO sweet,
When near my own her face lay, and her breath
Seemed like thing beyond the touch of death.

BAD RUNAWAY.
Capt. Lewis Facenire Badly Hurt
Monday Night.

Monday night the horse of Seeley &
Tomlinson ran away with Capt. Lewis
Facemire, who was driving him, throw
ing the captain out of the wagon and
seriously hurting him. The cause of
the runaway seems to be that the
bride bit broke just as the horse turned
the corner of Broad street into Atlantic
street As soon as the horse found his
head at liberty he dashed off at a ter
ribie speed; the captain was thrown
from the wagon and struck the pckets
of Charles Boon's fence, four of which
were broken by the force OF the colt
sion; his head was cut in two or shree
places, and his left shoulder and the
back of his neck were badly bruised
He was taken up in an unconscious
condition and carried to the house of
his daughter, Mrs. Andrew Beebe.
Drs. Smith and Sheppard were sum-
moned and dressed the wounds. 1t
was thought best not to remove him
to his home on Water street, and he
remained at Beebe's all night. He
passed restless night, being part of
the time delirious, but now he is do
ing well. The horse was stopped on
Commerce street in the vicinity of Cen.
tral Row; but little damage was done
to the animal or the rigging.
About a year ago the captain had
WHILE Delaying sheet rope ON boa d
Of 4 boat, the rope got coil partially
around his neck and he was uncere-
moniously jerked up. The skin around
his neck was badly scorched and blis-
tered by the rope, and he received Il
cut over the eye which required sew
eral stitches

Defense Of ..Joe'' HilIman.

The parents, brother and sisters of
Joe" Hillman, who is awaiting trial
for the Seidemann murder in Glouces-
ter county, all agree in the statement,
and Joe" has also said that he and
his wife went to Camden on the morn
ing of the 9th of November last, which
was Friday, and stayed over Sunday.
The mother says she remembers
about it, because she had to go to
Joe's house every day while they were
away to feed the chickens. The
brother says he remembers it was the
9th when Joe went to Camden, as he
was keeping account of the days from
the first of November to the time
when the hunting season opened on
the 18th of the month. The prosecu-
ton will endeavor to show that it was
Saturday and not Friday when Joe
and his wife went to Camden.
Hillman's wife visits him in Jail
about once week, bringing their
baby. Friday morning she visited
Woodbury. accompanied by the elder
Mrs. Hillman and the brother. They
were all admitted to the Jail, and had
an interview with the prisoner, in the
presence of Sheriff Ridgway.

WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.
Pheasant Social at FairtOn Last
Night.

One of the most pleasant social af
was at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John
Fl. Naglee, No. 325 Main St, Thursday
night. Mr. and Mrs. Naglee have been
sailing upon the smooth sea of matri-
monv these six years, and at the com
pletion of this 9th anniversary, they
resolved to commemorate the event
with a grand social party. 1t was
about eight o'clock in the evening
when the guests had gathered. They
came, MANY of them, from this city,
and other places, and the gathering
numbered nearly one hundred and
twenty-five persons. 1t was one OF
those good-natured parties that rather
seemed to enjoy the necessary crowd
ing, and the evening was spent purely
in social manner, which was most
pleasing. The Fairton Cornet Band
was present and enlivened the occasion
by bright music, which was thoroughly
enjoyed. Others of the party sang,
and delightful selections were render
ed upon the organ.
Before the evening had spent itself
refreshments We're served. Geo II.
Michel, of Bridgeton, was the caterer,
and he supplied a most desirable col
lation. There were cakes of every
description, and fruit, foreign and do
mestic. Ali fiavors of cream graced
the table, and they were in the most
artistic shapes. About half-past ten
O'Clock the party began bidding the
host and hostess good night, and wish
ing them many happy returns of the
day. 1t was a pleasant social event,
and long to be remembered by all
present Among the most prominent
of those present were I: John Thomas
and wife, Sheriff Shaw and wife, Free
holder Jos. T. White and wife, E. E.
johnson and wife, John Seagraves and
wife, VIM. Naglee and wife, jeremiah
White and wife. Mrs. Rev. G. H. Neal,
Mrs. John G.. Ayars, John Witsell and
wife, Charles Demaris and wife, Jos.
Cant and wife, Thos. Jaggers and wife,
Mrs Jason Carton, Mrs. Thomas Cole,
Mrs. Tillie Morehouse. The Fairton
Brass band was in it's glory, and the
names of all the Fairton people would
swell this list. There were a large
number of beautiful presents of glass
and silverware.

Presented with "a Flag.

A good time was had at the regular
meeting of Jacob G. Shinn Post No. 6,
u. A. H., Port Norris, on Saturday even
ing, at which time the Post was pre-
sented with a flag that was made in
Salisbury prison by Eldridge Garvin,
prisoner of war, out of pieces of old
flannel, and was first raised on Wash
lngton's birthday in 1864 over the door
way OF the room in which he was con-
hned, and the rebel officers passed under
1t on entering and leaving the prison.
Inc flag was presented to the Post by
Mrs. Jennie Andrews, formerly the
widow of Eldridge Garvin. The Post
received it with thanks, and prize it
very highly.
