The Plumb Hardware Co. have considerable to say in their new advertisement of to-day that is of great interest to the people of New town and vicinity. They are agents for the Gale blows and carry in stock not only one and two horse blows, but the Big Injun" sulky blow, which is the best sulky blow on the market They also carry a full line of "Planet Jr" cultivators, seed drills and tools. about which it is necessary to say but little. as every farmer in this vicinity knows that no better tools of the kind are made. They also mention in their ad. Clark's cutaway har
 row, which needs only to be seen to be appre-
 ciated- This Spring, they added a new de
 partment to their already extensively stock
 ed store, that of paints and brushes. They are now carrying full line of H. w. Johns
 asbestos paints and Whiting & Sons brushes. | both of which are world renowned, the paints
 having a reputation for larger covering ca pacity and purer ingredients than any other
 paint in the world. Saying that they are the
 best in the world is saying considerable. but lshey mean every word and have testimonials and proofs to back them. We don't think it necessary to inform our readers that, aside | from the above mentioned goods. they also
 carry large line of agricultural tools, hard
 ware. etc. It will repay anyone to give them
 a call and look through their extensive stock.

Our Swelling Pension List.

Washington dispatches announce
that the $50, DOC, 900 appropriated for
the payment of pensions this year has
already been exhausted, with six weeks
more of the fiscal year to be provided
for. The probability of a deficiency is,
therefore, converted into a certainty
and the expectation -perhaps the boast
of the Bureau that it will be able to
dispose of we Sl00, OO0, 0o0 before July
seems likely to be realized.
In any other country than this, or
with a people less Indifferent than are
Ours to what becomes of the revenues,
the extraordinary growth of the Pension
Fund under the combined efforts of the
claim agents and the political dema-
gogues would be startling.
In 1878, thirteen years after the close
of the war, when the claims would
naturally have begun to diminish, the
applications allowed had decreased
from a maximum of $4,000 in 1866, the
year after the war, to about 1l,OO0.
The disbursements had fallen from "a
maximum of S33 ,000, 900 in 1871 to
$26 900, 000. Last year, twenty-three
years after the close of the war, the ap-
plications allowed were over 60,000-
including the survivors of the Mexican
wal lately pensioned--and the disbnrse-
ments this year will be at least 9 ,000-
600.
This sum exceeds by $27, 00O, 600 the
total ordinary expenses of the Federal
Government in the year before the war.
1t equals the cost of the standing army
of Great Britain 100000 strong) and
nearly equals the cost of the great Ger
man army almost 400, 900 strong). And
with Corporal TANNER in charge there
is no telling where it will stop.-N. Y.

is thought, result in an assessment of

The Elmer Times says: 1.-THE Board
of Almshouse trustees are in some what
of a dilemma. A recent act Of the
Legislature requires that male and fe
male inmates be kept separate and their
seems to be no easy or economical way
to perform that requirement in the Sa-
lem county Home for the poor. Stew
ard Dickinson claims that he has no
difficulty in keeping them separate at
night, the home being so arranged that
they can be confined in separate apart
ments, but in the day time many OF
both sexes are employed about the house
and farm as helpers and cannot he kept
apart. In fact the only way out of the
dilemma seems to be to keep the in-
mates shut up day as well as night or
build another house and separate houses
and grounds by a high fence or stone
wall.
To confine them in day time would
be inhuman and the other plan would
require an outlay of perhaps $4,000, at
least.
With the merits of the law the Board
of course have nothing to do and tax
payers must needs he satisfied with any
reasonable expense to which the coun-
ty is put in living up to the requirments

Washington Letter.

Washington, ID. G. May %, 1883.
The State department has finally re-
solved upon its list of consular appoint
ments and the little group of the faith
full that has clustered about the hotels
ever since Inauguration waiting for the
distribution is taking heart. Every
day new arrivals swell the ranks and
hope beats high. The candidates are
OF all classes. There are Jews and
Gentiles; down-east Yankees and peo-
pie who cannot speak English; ward
heelers and students; editors, lawyers
and preachers. Preachers lead the a
so far as numbers are concerned, and of
the candidates who are not in the city,
the large majority are superannuated
ministers. All the candidates have
filed voluminous papers, including the
most lavish endorsements by all sorts of
people. One member of the Kentucky
legislature, indorsing another for a
consular appointment, writes: "His APP
point would be the rite man in the rite
place" When he adds that the can
didate is very "literery" n feels as
sured that this is the verdict of an ex-
pert in such matters.
AS there are only 800 ~consulates to
be distributed among 1000 applicants,
several gentlemen will be disappointed.
The applicants for the Paris consulate
are said not to he so numerous as under
Mr.. Cleyeland's administration, when
they reached 5000. 1t is understood
that the present incumbent will be re-
tanned until next fall.
In the possession of the First Assis-
tant Secretary of State is an a%lphabetic-
al list of c~onsulates, with a blue check
against the name of every place for
which somebody has been decided upon
by the State department, subject to the
endorsement of the President. IL is the

prove of the blue marks that have thus

There is great excitement in PeDn's
Grove whenever the newspapers an
nounce the capture of a whale. A few
months ago a very large IL was towed
through the Delaware and Chesapeake
canal. But Sunday they could be seen
on dry land. 1t being Il beautiful day
every possessor of one felt a pleasure in
wearing it, especially those that were
obtained at the Economy Clothing Hall,
Wilmington. But these whales you rea
reading about don't happen to have an
b., and those lucky possessOrs that
bought their ''broad vale" suits at the
above establishment were convinced
that their ''wales" didn't swallow zip
as much money as those bought else
where-''Broad Wale' suits that high
priced clothiers get 81 for, Fellheimer,
the Economy Hall clothier, is selling
for $12; and kindly don't forget that
valuable item of interest, as 50 saved
can be used for other actual neceSsar

CiyaI Service RefOrmi

From the NeU York Times:
. 1t can be stated that approximately,
from March A to May II, $500 appoint
ments have been made under Harrison's
administration, including 600 presiden-
tial postmasters, 1000 ~fourth-class post
masters, 1900 railway mail service EN-
ployes, $50 miscellaneous appointments
and 200 department changes.
For the same period under Cleveland
there were about 1000 appointments all
told,
The Penn's Grove record., 1889-06-01

far delayed the appointment Of the en-
tire selection Of consuls. Tie list ~
occasionally flashed OH a too Emporium
ate candidate to show him that the
place is already ''mortgaged,' but IN
as much as the candidate generally eN-
presses his willingness to accept any
other consulate the remedy has no
efficacy.
In the speculation concerning the aP-
pointment of this or that candidate o
the vacancy in the Supreme Court, tue
unwritten law Of custom seems to oe
disregarded. Vacancies have, by TINS
law generally been filled by appoint
ment of a Judge of the circuit IRON
which the last incumbent was chosen
In that way the Supreme Court De-
comes representative of the several ell
cults and where State and NaIioi''
la VS. conflict some n can always pe
found on the bench TO expand THEN
from all intimate knowledge. Iheoi'y
exceptions to this rule grew out Of Tue
civil war and the reorganization period
Therefore to appoint Attorney General
Miller or Circuit Judge Gresham oi
District Judge Woods will be a VIOLA
ton of a reasonable custom. If PreSi-
dent Harrison follows precedent lie
will look for Justice Matthew's sue
cessor in Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee or
Michigan.
Pension Commissioner Tanner has
decided that under the law pensioners
who have lost both an arm and leg are
entitled to S72 per month, the same as
If both arms or both legs were gone.
The number, so far as known affected
by this decision is p. While it is mani
festly a wilful misconstructiOn OF the
law, which unfortunately admits OF no
such reading, the rating is Just ana
equitable. 1t was suggested to Com
missioner Tanner that he wait until
next winter and let Congress pass a law
allowing the rate, but he preferred u
do his own legislating.
Local society is on delightful tip-toe,
of expectancy over semi.oflicial an
nouncements and rumors of marriages
to be. Justice Horace Gray, he OF the
handsome face and the renowned hatred
for his court brother Lamar, on June
9Th. will wed the daughter of his re-
Gently deceased colleague Justice Mat
thews. Owing to the fact that Justice
Matthews has been dead SO short a
time the fuifllment of the VOWS that
were pledged during his illness will be
rigidly ceremonial and the witnesses
confined to the immediate relatives.
The groom is a bachelor of sixty-two
years, over six feet four inches tall and
an unusually hanesOme Ian. Indeed,
he is deemed the handsomest member
of the Supreme Court. He is of old
Massachusetts stock, his ancestors hay
ing burned witches and fit into the
Revolution in true orthodox yle.
The bride, Miss Jean Mat news is also
of Revolutionary lineage, and is lady
of fiue abilities. The honeymoon will
be passed in Europe and on their return
the couple will occupy the Justices
fine residence here, a brick reproduction
of the New England architecture of
the colonial period.
The President has decided that here
after the list of elligibles for appoint
ment to the public services, together
with their standing shall be made pub
lie. Under the idea that if it were
made public, politicians would bring
pressure to bear for the appointment OF
a certain man, the list have been up to
this time kept secret. SNOW.
