DOES III PAY.
Should the County Farm be Com
tinueG.

Cumberland county owns one of the
finest farms, in connection with it's
Aims House, in the State, but just
now the question is agitated, does it
pay?
There are many in the county who
unhesitatingly answer that it does not.
Freeholder Trenchard, at the meeting
of the Board on Wednesday pro-
pounded the question and did not re-
ceive what he considered satisfactory
answer. 1t is claimed by many who
have been making careful inquiry int o
the matter, that the big farm is too ex-
pensive to pay. Too much money is
invested every year for improvements,
and the value of the out buildings is
altogether too great. There are at the
County House an average of seventy
inmates, and the average cost of keep
ing each inmate per year is $103.17,
above all that is consumed by the in
mates raised on the farm. Those who
do not think the farm pays, claim that
the county could pay the board of its
inmates without any help from the
farm, and do it cheaper than under
the present system.
1t was suggested by a gentleman
recently that the farm should be
sold with the exception of about twelve
or fifteen acres, and then purchase the
necessaries for the board of the in
mates. The matter is of sufficient i'm
portance to give careful consideration,
for the county has no money to pay
for anything unnecessary.

Consclence Stricken.

Fourteen years ago tramp knocked
at the door of Daniel Palmer, in South
Orange township, Essex county and
asked for hat. By mistake one of
the daughters gave him her fathers
best silk hat, discovering the mistake
just as the tramp started away with it.
An exclamation by her sister apprised
the tramp of the prize he had received.
Little thought was ever given to the
matter until a few mornings ago, when
a clean new hat-box was found on the
front porch. 1t contained Il new silk
hat. On slip of paper found in the
box was written: ITO replace your
fathers best silk hat, taken by me
fourteen years ago." There was no
signature or other mark to indicate by
whom it had been sent

1t was not without effort that this
feat was accomplished. Finding it
impossible to have Knox set for a
photograph, the PIONEER sent to
Philadelphia for one of the best sketch
artists in that city, the gentleman re
ferred to doing work for the Philadel-
delphaa Mercury and Evening Herald, of
that place. The gentleman was to
come down on the first train, arriving
here at 7.42, but he missed his connec-
tions and did not arrive until after
ten. The Sheriff had left the city be-
fore that time, and it was found i'm
possible to get access to the Jail corri-
dor, in which the accused murderer is
committed. The artist was very anx-
ious to carry out his object, and he
was consigned to the care of a reporter.
The reporter informed him that in
the Jail door between the Boys and
Women's corridor, there was peep
hole, smaller than the thickness of a
lead pencil, but through it it might be
possible to secure view of the man.
The artist and reporter started for the
Jail with the intention of getting
peep through the hole, but upon ar
irving there found that Jail Warden
Harry Shaw had gone down town, and
it was impossible to get in the Boys
corridor.
The reporter then led the artist
around to the back of the jail building,
where sounds of an accordian were
heard coming from the interior of the
jail. THAT'S the man you want to
see," said the reporter, and in a mo-
ment an old rickety step ladder was
leaned against the wall, under the high
window. Up the ladder the artist
climbed, and from that to the blue
stone window sills. Clinging tightly
to the wires he peered through graf
ing, dirty window and heavy bars of
iron. The music kept on playing and
the artist said his man was too far
away to get view of him. kick
the grate," was suggested, and the
boot of the artist was brought with
some force against the CRATE.
This called the attention OF Knox to
the window, and he sauntered down
the corridor with his ACCORDION in
hand and pipe between the teeth. For
a moment, Knox stood gazing into the
face of the artist, and the latter jumped
down from the window: with the ex-
clamation, i've got him down in my
mind"

secured. He told Knox, and the pris-
oner knowing that a picture had been
taken, resolved to make what he could
out OF the other papers and offered to
sit for photograph for the NeWs for
50. This was paid, and after consider.
able care in dressing, the picture was
taken about five hours after our artist
had secured it.
The sketch, considering the difficulty
experienced by the artist, is an excel
lent one, and is readily recognized.
Thus it was through the progressive
enterprise Of the PIONEER that other
papers, always behind, could secure a
picture of thu man.
A reporter called at the office of
Prosecutor Logue this morning, and
found him in his usual cheerful mood,
having just returned from a pleasant
days cunning trip. The reporter
asked him if any Investigations had
been made into the story of the ped
dler hearing the screams of Annie
Biard. He replied he knew absolutely
nothing about the matter further than
what he had read in the newspapers.
Each day long story is published
about this peddler, which usually ends
up with denial upon the part of the
boy as to the truth of the statements.
1t tseems that the boy, eager for MOTOR
ity, goes about telling people fairy
tales concerning the matter, and when
approached by anyone whom be finds
eager to get at the bottom of the story,
he denies all knowledge of the affair
and declares that he has not been on
the Malaga road for year. The folks
of the boy declare that he was not in
that vicinity on the day in question.
The matter will be investigated, how
ever.
Wheaton Berault and Charles w.
Payne, counsel for the defence, came
to Bridgeton on the Central train this
morning, and went directly to the Jail,
where they We're admitted to Knox.
This morning Mrs. Knox, wife of
John, accompanied by his two sisters,
came down on the train from Glass
boro, and went Immediately to the
Jail, and remained there long time
with the accused.

A picture of Knox has at last been
secured, and it was the work of the

bis confinement has been opposed to
being photographed. and all efforts
have, as consequence, been unavail-

would show the man to its readers,
and to-day they have the pleasure of

The reporter and artist hurried Gown

sketch was made of the man. The ar

were made this morning, which ap-

Well Done.

The action of the State Board OF Education
on the school book question has not only com
pletely allayed the public fear that there
would be sweeping changes ordered in the
text books, but given the people additional
cause of deep satisfaction. The only change
made was the substitution of Chamber 5
Higher History of the United States for Will
sons History, very judicious act and this
was highly approved by the more experienced
teachers. The formal readoption of the
whole list, with this exception, settles the
question for four years and gives the assur-
ance of the entire removal of the apprehended
danger. This is in accord with the hopeful
view expressed by the Item, when calling the
attention of the State Board to the matter Il
day or two before the very satisfactory ac-
ton.
The Board went much further in the right
direction than was generally expected by
even the most hopeful. 1t not only adhered
to the conservative course referred to, but
ordered reduction of retail prices on the
whole schedule ranging from twenty five ~
forty per cent. Publishers are moreoyefIr re-
quired to have the price printed in plain let

The Arrests Ina Lafayette.
Communicated.

Communicated.
An article on this subject which appears in
the New Orleans Times Democrat of July 3lst
is nothing more than a broad accusation
against the regulators" when in truth that
organization is in no way responsible for the
lynching of the negro Key. 1t does the gem
lemen now under arrest great injustice, as
the tendency of the article is to draw against
them the i'll will borne by many towards the
regulators. Let these answer for whatever
offenses they may have committed but jus
tice demands that the prisoners, tWho by the
way are among the best citizens of Lafayette J
should be judged from q different standpoint
Ii they are the ring leaders of the lynchers,
they acted as individuals, and not in obedi-
ence to the behests of any organization. The
citizens of Carencro who went to the cabin of
Keys victim were cfaZed with indignation
when they beheld what an outrageous crime
had been committed-a womaf literally chop
ped to pieces, and her two infants crying and
dragging themselves through blood over her
dead body. The sickening scene was enough
to arouse them to commit any act and when
it became evident that the perpetrator of this
hendish crime was none other than the hus-
bund and father, there were no bounds to the
public Indignation; and, as will often happen
in such cases, regardless of law and the ad-
monitions of friends, the people determined
then and there to make of Key an example
which should ever deter like devils from COM
mitting such crime
We should respect and obey the law; but
there are times and circumstances when the
best of men will allow their Judgment to be
controlled by their feelings. Such cases are
unfortunately too frequent; for there is not
day which passes over our heads, when acts
as desperate and less worthy of sympathy
than the hanging of Key are committed in
the best of the law abiding States Key met
doom he richly deserved.

The Mad Stone at vacherie.

Mr.. James A. Stewart, writing from
hagard L. o., st. John parish, June II
10 the Picayune, says:
There is at Vacherie settlement i,
thls parish, mad stone, whose won
deriul cures in the eases of bites from
rabid dogs, as we'll as from those OF
venomous reptiles, are truly wonder
! ful.
This remarkable phenomenon is pos
sessed by Mr.. Jos. Webre, planter il
the 'acheEie section, whose disintcrest.
ed nature causes him to minister to the
wants of his less fortunate fellow mer
with hospitality and munificence.
A few days ago while Mr.. Cambre
head man on the Vignes plantation
was doing some work in the field he
became conscious of sharp pain in the
hnger, and looking immediately to dis
cover the cause of it, saw two small
dents with the blood tricking fl ON
them, and naturally concluded that De
was the victime of snake bite, which
was affirmed by the presence of his
snakeship himself.
1t seems that Mr.. Cambre had insert
ed his hand in the water near Il dam to
perform some needed repair, when he
telt the bite. lie Immediately bound
the finger above the wound, and started
Tor home, suffering meanwhile yexcruci-
ating agony. Medical assistance was
at once summoned, bnt the wounded
hnger swelled fearfully, and finally ex-
tended to the arm, which soon attained
enormous proportions.
1t was then proposed to convey the
man to the Vacherie to test the efficacy
OF the famed stone. The trip thither
was laborious, owing to the terrible
amount of dust; bat finally the end
was reached, and the patient was with
In the threshold of the home of Mi
Webre who Immediately upon being
informed as to the nature of the visit,
proceeded to business.
The stone was placed upon the wound
and Immediately adhered; remaining
thus until replete with the virus, when
Its hold relaxes, and it has to be washed
in warm water in order to yield its
stores of virus that it may be again ap-
piled.
After three such applications the
stone refused to longer adhere, and the
sufferer was pronounced cured. Dur
ing the operation, and whila. the stone
was acting, ''sesseaktGasr was called, and
the guests saa down to table, the patient
feelingso much improved that he found
lie had acquired wholesome appetite
by his recent e<oeriencFs
Numerous ar6athe sufferers that con-
gregate to be relieved by the stone, and
to all are afforded hospitable recep-
ton: no charge being asked for the
Operation of curing.
This stone, it is said, was found in
the tripe of deer killed by an Indian
hunter, and presented by him to "pale
face friend, from whom it descended
or was purchased by its present owner.

The State Press Association.


Baton Rouge Advocate.
One of the most important moves by the
State Press Association during its late session
printing at less cost than was reasonable.
After much discussion the resolution was
adopted, which was very stringent, and while,
it did vt go as far as was desired by many

tiOn.
One lof the first cases under this rule is that
Of ,envielle parish. The several papers
made bids, and Mr.. E. G. Drew, of the Area.

annum. Of course this is performing public
service free of COST and We call Bro. Drew's
attention to the resolution passed by that
body, of which he has long been member.
The rules mean something, or they were pass
