Death of Mackey Williams.

Mackey Williams, proprietor of the
Gatzmer House, at Dennisville, died
Friday, aged SO years. He repre-
sented Cape May county in the lower
branch of the Legislature in 1850 and
1851, and in the latter year gained con
siderable publicity in the Senatorial
contest between Commodore Robert
F. Stockton and Stacy G. Potts. The
Democrats and Wings were evenly di-
vided, and, while Potts was the eau
Gus nominee of the Democrats, he was
opposed by Stockton, who was also a
Democrat. Williams had been elected
as a Whig, but when the vote was
taken, he cast his ballot for Stockton,
thus electing him over the regular eau
Gus nominee. The following year Will
liams leased the Ridgway House, in
Philadelphia. Later he kept the Davis
House, on South Delaware avenue,
and, of late years, has been the pro.
prietor of the Gatzmer House, where
he died.

The committee on bylaws and con-
stitution, Messrs. Towe, of Bridgeton; !;
Bassett, of Salem, and Richman, of
Salem, reported favorable to the adop-
ton of the constitution and bylaws of
the Virginia association. These we're
adopted. 1t calls for the annual meet
ing to be held the Sd Wednesday in
January of each year, and a payment
of So per year by each member. The
place of pext meeting will be selected
by the President and Executive Board.
An encouraging letter was read from
Julius Edwards, of Leavenworth,
Kansas, formerly of Bridgeton.
The Secretary was ordered to have
printed copies of the constitution and
by laws. He was also ordered to send
an invitation to every packer in the
State, to join the association.
President Proba-co thought the
members had every reason to feel
encouraged over the meeting and he
believed it would be successful. Mr.
Judge was called on and made an ex-
cellent address, full of Encouragement
He declared he had never known an
association to start out VITA so many
members as this one.
Others made addresses and it was
developed that tomatoes in this section
were a little late, while big pack was
expected. In the northern part of the
State, the season was well advanced.
The books for membership were
opened and fourteen firms signed the
roll. Two others present said they
would sign it soon. 1t is thought that
within a very short time there will be
fifty members of the Fruit and Vege-
table Packers Association OF New
Jersey.

An Earlier Mail

A movement is on foot whereby an
earlier mail will leave Bridgeton in the
morning. Superintendent Jackson, of
the Railway Mail Service, has pro-
missed To order pouch to leave this
city on the seven o'clock train, should
the people desire it. That the people.
and especially the business men, desire
it is quite evident. A mail to leave this
city on the early train would be deliv-
cred in Philadelphia by the time our
earliest mail now reaches there. OF
course this would permit the filling of
orders there so that articles might be
shipped on the noon train to this city.
BY all means let us have an earlier
mail to Philadelphia in the morning

GRAND OFFICERS VISIT.
Rhey Met With the Cumberland
Lodge L. %. .. +.

Thursday night was one long to be
rememb bered by Odd Fellows in this To-
cality, the occasion being the visit of
grand officers of the state to Cunber-
land Lodge l. o. O. F. No. 1879 Cum
berland Lodge has a reputation for its
tations of those present that night.
Invitations had been extended and ac-
cepted from members of Bridgeton
Lodge, Cohansey Lodge of this city,
and Welcome Friends Lodge, of Cedar
vile. The grand officers present were
Grand Master j. Frank Jennings,
Deputy Grand Master Harry M. jew
ett, of Winslow; Grand Chaplain, Mr.
King, of Patterson; Dist. Deputy
Grand Master James N. Bateman, of
Cedarville. Everyone present thor
oughly enjoyed themselves and there
wee many pleasant things said of
Cumberland Lodge and its beautiful
rooms by the visitors Later i'll the
evening thirteen walters started in to
furnish refreshments for the $50 pres
ent. There were all manner of fancy
cakes, and great quantities of ice
cream, and bashful indeed must have
been the person who did not get all
they desired, The rooius had been
beautifully decorated with flowers for
the occasion. Grand Master Jennings
and Grand Chaplain King, were guests
of Grand Marshal James w. Trench.
ard, on East avenue, while Deputy
Grand Master Jewett, visited Chas. A.
Hay, of Bank street.

He Who Advert1ses.

The man who thinks it does not pay
to advertise should look into the facts
little more closely. Last week set
tlement was made between baking
powder firm, and the retiring member
drew out $2,30O,OOO as his share of the
property. This represented total
value of the plant of more than $5,-
100000. Aside from the inherent value
OF the commodity, all this is the result
of judicious newspaper advertising. 1t
has made many fortunes and will make
many more.

the party was soon seated around the
tables in the First Avenue Restaurant,
where an 'old fashioned" camp meet
ing dinner was served.
After dinner, Justice Cassidy, Rev
VIM. Dayton Roberts, of Philadelphia,
and others, made short speeches. A
stroll was then taken over the neatly
laid out avenues within the Grove en-
closures, and the improvements made
since the camp meeting of 1889 were
noted.
There are at present $50 cottages
occupied, and families are moving in
daily. Within a week it is expected
that but few cottages will be empty,
and by August 1st nearly all those who
remain during the camp season will be
domiciled in their cottages.
The camp meeting will commence
on Wednesday, July 31st, continuing
until August 18th. Many prominent
divines have announced their intention
of being present during the camp sea-

The Wheat Cr0n.

Wheat throughout South Jersey is
in a precarious condition. Thousands
of acres have been harvested for over
week, and in consequence of the
recent rains can not be housed. A
large amount is sprouting in the sheaf,
some having sprouts two inches long.
Even if put in the barns now much
will heat and rot or may frolu combus-
ton fire the buildings. Many of the
farmers will not even cart the crop
from the fields. Hundreds of acres
are not yet harvested and has fallen
to the ground and is loss.

Died at Atlantic City.

Edward Anderson, son of State
Comptroller Anderson, died at Atlantic
City Monday where he had gone for
his health. The cause of death was
pneumonia. He was an expert ae-
countant, we'll known by the politicians
of the State, and during the Comp
troller's sickness last fall assumed
charge of the office, at Trenton.
Comptroller Anderson has been very
unfortunate the past year, having him
self received severe accident while
on pleasure trip last fall. He has
been great sufferer, and is yet hard
ly able to attend to his duties as State
Comptroller. The sudden death of his
son is another sad blow. His large
circle of friends throughout the State
sympathize deeply with him in his
affiiction.
