Salem has had a very exciting time
this week over the sudden marrI.:-e OF
one Of her prominent daughters OF high
8 icial standing. A month or 30 o
two Frenchmen, Alphonso and Louis
Duval, arrived In Salem with letters of
recommendation to Miss Sue Gibbon.
q refined and literary lady of high stand
ing. She chaperoned them into the best
social circles and soon a class was start
ed to learn French under them.
In the meantime Alphonso had made
. conquest Of Miss Sue and Father Du-
gan refusing to marry them, she being
an E~piscopalian, they got Bishop
O'Farrell. at Burlington, to join them.
They had conducted themselves in the
best manner until Tuesday evening
when they arrived from Philadelphia in
a condition hardly able to navigate the
sidewalk. They made some remarks
in a barber shop concerning the prize
one had secured and how she would be
missed. They went to their boarding
house, Josiah Smiths, where their in
toxicated condition developed to bois-
ferrous actions.
The friends of Mrs. Anna Gibbon
and her daughter Sue became indig-
nant when they heard Of the proceed
ings and tried to pursuade them from
leaving the next morning, as was their
intentions, for Denver, Col, where Al.
phonso, who processes to be q doctory
intends to practice. Mrs. Gibbon,
who is so, is said to be as much infatu-
ated as her daughter, with the dapper
F~renchmen, who are between 25 and 80
years. Sue is so.
In order to gain time Mrs. Gibbons
friends. of the Society Of Friends. to
which she belongs, had Mr.. Smith to
have them arrested and locked up on
Wednesday for disordsrly conduct. A
hearing was held in the afternoon be-
fore Squire Casperson. They said they
we're quick tempered and resented
hastily some remarks about them, but
meant no wrong. Tley were fined IS
each which with costs amounted to $24.
As they had not the money ut hand
they went TO the GiblOn residence and
returned with the required amount and
we've released.
The friends of the GibbOn's fear these
foreigners may get the woman off, rob
them of their money and desert them.
They all st irted for Denver on Thurs
day, except Louis, who intends to re-
turn to Salem, after going as far as
New York.

THE roN FERRY.

we have been informed since We PEN
ed last weeks article, Is giving better
satisfaction since the new officials took
charge, and that is the reason j. Will
mer CLARK stopped running his boat.
Truckers who have fifteen baskets 60
over free.
There was a misunderstanding with
MS concerning the barge carrying
freight. The design is for the barge to
carry the bulk Of the freight. 1t lies
at the PENIS Grove wharf in the after
noon and all night to be loaded at con-
venience, and is towed ' Q at 4.3O 80
An eailier market is secured than for
merly and there Is more time to unload
which gives better satisfaction.
1t is the project Of the Superintendent
A, G. McCausland, and the produce
sellers, to work up u trade with the
produce dealers in Pottsville and Read
ing, who bought heretofore in Phila.
delphia, and Mr.. McCausland brought
A number of these dealers owe OF Mon.
day. If a market can be secured in
those towns along the Wilmington and
Northern railroad 1t may be soon that
the truckers can sell their produce OIL
the PENIS Grove wharf.
Some labored under the impression
that the barge was to relieve the Haber
of all freight, which the superintendent
| informs us is not the case. The Haber
will carry all freight which may be of.
fered and will wait until it is
loaded and unloaded. Recently 1000
baskets of produce was taken owe on
the Haber and unloaded in II minutes,
which speaks better for the accommo.
dation of truckers than expected by
many.
There has been no large excursions
over yet, and there has been no occas.
sion to refuse anyone passage. 1t Is
only on an exceptional occasion that
there will be more than she is allowed
! to carry and for the ordinary traffic the
| Superintendent thinks her large enough,
As we said last week, it Is evidently
the intention of the Company to &C
commodate the people and the Super
| intendent wishes all, who have any
complaint, to report to him, and he
will SEE that the accommodations art
given.

Farmers. Read This,

We will run a daily truck line from BARRIERS
wharf, Penn's Grove, to Chester. The prospects
are that prices of produce will be mach better
this year in Chester, than last year, as 1900 men
are now employed in Roach's shipyard which
was idle last year. Baskets promptly returned.

Miss Abbie Robinson has been indis-

The new Baptist Church is being en-

A curious case of recovery from pois-
on occurred here recently. The sub
ject swallowed a dose of prussic acid.
All signs of death Immediately ensued.
Horrible commissions, evidences of
much agony, were observed. A vapor
or smoke was emitted from the mouth
and nostrils. Then a calm repose that
was mistaken for death, but. strange to
relate, a reactionfoccurred and in a few
hours the cat was as well as ever, beg

There are actually people who believe
that Pemberton Pierce did not lose his
life by the burning Of that Texas hotel,
but that he is still alive. Some go so
far as TO assert that they have seen him
in Philadelphia since the first OF the
present year.-Snbeaml. Those who
saw his corpse would know he was dead.
His brother William, who lives i'll Phil
adelphia, looked much like him, and
persons not well acquainted with either
might take one for the other on sight.
Persons never look 50 much alike until
after one is gone, when a small resem-
blance looks very similar in our minds.
1t is easy to be mistaken and we know
those are who have such mn idea.
Everybody's picnic in Divers woods
on Thursday was a grand success, al
hough not so many present as on
former occasions. Rev. John Hand
ley, of Bridgeton, was present and gave
a very eloquent Grafton on the lessons
learned from the centennial a%nniversar-
les of our country. in the afternoon
and Rev. A. ] Gregory, of Sharptown.
followed with a few appropriate e.
marks. In the evening the Penn's
Grove Band was present and Rev. E.
r. Bruuyate, of ~Pedricktown, gave a
very interesting and instructive address
touching ON politics, religion and social
life. For want of time and space we
have to omit II synopsis Of these worthy
addresses.
The "Kepublic''-the mammoth of

election last fall Upper Neck Township
has to be divided into two election pre-
cincts. The Township Committee met
last Saturday and made the division,
which also necessitates another board
of election offices, which they elected.

past Robert Walkers toward Eagle
town to Jas. Curridsn's house, thence
across Charles Curriden's and the Ross
farlu to the line of George P. DOlbOw's
farm, thence OH to Salem creek.
Those voters living south of that
place will vote in Odd Fellows Hall;
those east and north Of that line vote in
Mrs. Rebecca Davis's ice cream parlor,
opposite Odd Fellows Hall. The COM
mittee divided tie number Of voters
as nearly equal as possible. They
estimated there will be 315 in one pre-
cinct and 31S in the other. Some think
the Democrats will have q very small.

A Bad Negroes Work.

LAwRENCEvILLE, ILL.,, Sept. 16.-
A race-war between the whites and
blacks occurred here Saturday night.
A few days ago st. Louis negro
named"Slyck," came to town and
Saturday quarreled with a white man
and attacked him with a knife. The
latter escaped after receiving two
wounds and "Slyck" dashed down
the street, slashing at every one.
Judge Barnes of the county court
ordered the negro to stop. The
negro attacked the judge but
the latter retaliated by knock
ing him down. The negro was
then disarmed and arrested. Mean
while, the blacks hearing o: the ar
rest, determined to rescue the pris-
oner. A few white men surrounded
the judge. There was a hard fight in
which the negroes were beaten back
and four of the ring-leaders were ar
rested. The prisoners were taken to
the county jail and the sheriff and his
deputies were ordered by the judge to
guard the building. The blacks
quickly organized and made an attack
on the jail. The sheriffwas ordered to
fire on them, but refused, and the ne
gros forced their way into the Jail and
rescued the prisoners. Judge Barnes
organized the whites and attacked
the blacks at the Jail. There was a
bloody fight, in which pistols, knives
and clubs were used. Judge Barnes
was cut and shot, but his wounds are
not fatal. DR.. Johnson, Ed Lamb and
three other white men were seriously
hurt. Two negroes were shot and
half hundred heads were broken.
The whites Won and the ring-leaders
were again put in Jail, and heavy
guard placed around the building.
The riot has created great excitement.
