That gaua ,Eouey.

In our last issue we had occasion to in
quire why it was that those who had con-
tributed to the fund which was gotten up
to hire a band for the Fourth of July Gel
ebration had not had their money return
ed to them, and incidentally suggested the
possibility of some of the Committee using
it for taking an outing. 1t would seem
that it was well for those who had put their
money in the undertaking that we mention
ell the matter, as Immediately after our
paper was issued most of the subscribers
were looked up and their takings returned
to them. Whether or not the treasurer ran
short of funds, We are not advised, but we
know of one contributor who says his
money has not been returned yet. The
MONITOR has no time to waste over those
who write themselves our chest citizens :"
One thing would be safe to conclude, and
that is that there would have been little
money paid back had we not called atten-
ton to the matter and smoked out this self
denominated 'fbest citizen.'

In response to call issued some time
ago for meeting of the fruit packers of
New Jersey at Elmer, number of gentle
men interested gathered in the W. c. 7. L.
rooms in that town on Monday afternoon.
The question of forming an association had
been brought before the packers Of the
State by E. S. Judge, editor of the Trade
published at Baltimore, Nd, he having
visited the various factories of New jersey
and shown the great advantages Of such an
organization.
The meeting was called TO order by the
election of L. c. Probasco, OF Bridgeton,
as temporary president and W. l.. Stevens
temporary secretary. Mr. Judge was then
called upon to state the object of the meet
ing. He said that as he was not resident
of this State it might seem strange that he
should take such an interest in such an
organization here. This he explained by
saying that he as editor of the Trade a
paper devoted entirely to the interests of
canned goods men, had seen the necessity
of organizing the packers for their own
benefit that the business might be kept up,
that they might know how much stuff to
put up SO that the market should not be-
come overstocked
In various States these organizations
have been formed Through the secretar-
les Of the various associations they report
what they are doing and the outlook Tor
business and these are forwarded to the
head quarters and in return they receive
the same reports from the various ether
associations. Much other information was
given and the constitution of Virginia As
ISOLATION was read. After this nominal
ting committee was appointed consisting
of hiessrs. Bodine, Brady, Towle, Fogg
and Earl, to nominate officers for the asso-
citation.
The committee reported the names ofthe
following: President, f. c. Probaseo.
Bridgeton; Niee-President. ". A. G. Earl,
Elizabeth; Secretary and Treasurer. w. /.
Stevens, Cedarville Edw. Wallace, Of
Woodstown, was named fer president but
positively declined.
An executive committee was appointed,
consisting OF the following gentlemen:
Edward Wallace, Woodstown; Theodore
Davis, Shiloh; J. L. Brady. Bridgeton;J.
a. Dedine, WILLIAMSBURG; G. $. Bueklin,
Keyport. The president is also a member
Of this committee.
The duties Of the committee are arbitra-
tion and commerce, including transporta-
ton. Messrs. Towle, Bassett and Richman
were made committee on organization, TO
draft constitution and bylaws. The con-
stitution and by laws of the Western As
soeiation Of packers was adopted with some
changes. Tho membership fee was fixed
at three dollars and the annual meeting it

saser,i.s Sensation.

The following, from the Philadelphia
Press of yesterday, under date of July "a,
gives the particulars of an occurrence
which is the sole topic of conversion in
Salem and the neighborhood,
Salem is just now all commotion over a
romantic marriage that took place last
week, and 1t is not altogether sure that the
sequel will not give it touch of greater
romance.
About mouth ago two gentlemen, by
the name of Alphonse and Louis Duval,
suddenly appeared in this city and, with
the assistance of Miss Sue Gibbon, popu-
lar lady in social circles and member of
st. Johp's Episcopal Church, which gave
her thesentrce to the best society and to
whom, 1t is said, they carried letter OF
introduction, they began to form class for
the study Of the French language They
represented themselves as accomplished
linguists.
Quite large class was formed from
among the first families, a number taking
private lessons and Advent well for time.
The teachers were not idle socially and In
two weeks one had made n conquest the
victim being Miss Gibbon.

The latest wrinkle in house painting is
to forward photograph of the house to a
company manufacturing prepared paints,
which passes into the hands of an expert,
who selects the colors, and forwards in
structions as to how they shall be put on.
No man should deprive his wife or fam
lily Of a good local paper. They do not go
out from home to learn the news, as does the
husband and father, and the paper serves to
relieve the otherwise lonely hours of its
absence. 1t is the worst possible economy
to deprive the family of a good local paper.
The business men in Philadelphia, from
Front down to Delaware avenue, don't like
the extension of the cable cars TO the froot
of Market street hill. They say it is ruin
ing their business, as teamsters won
waste their time in trying to get up and
down the hill with the street blocked two
thirds of the time by disabled ears.

Minneapolis Exposition.

The Minneapolis Exposition closed to-
day and was, considering the dull times
grand success.
The exhibits were fewer in number but
were of a superior class to those of other
years. Two Of the most interesting were
the Art Pottery exhibited by Messrs
Raab & Guy of Austin, and the carving
in wood by Mrs. Brown Swedish lady,
The former firm exhibited large num-
Der Of vases in Greek. Roman, Turkish.
Persian and Chinese designs, besides q
decoration for the ceiling, all made by
hand from different colors of burnt CLAW.
This work of art was thoroughly appre-
ciated by the visitors who attended the
Exposition and Minneapolis feels highly
favored in having such an exhibit here
this year.f1n the latter exhibit there were.
besides great many other things, two
large easels with delicate patterns carved
so beautifully that one could scarcely
believe such exquisite work could be
done by hand.

The Worlds Fair of 1902.

North Western Agriculturist * Chicago
and New York are contesting for the
location Of the Great Worlds, Fair OF
1892, the four hundredth anniversary Of
the discovery of the New World by
Columbus. In this contest the votes OF
the Northwest are with Chicago. New
York has no public spirit, and the To-
cation OF the Fair in that city would not
insure ITS success. Chicago is full of
energy and public spirit and knows no
such word as fail. Besides the location
should be central. Foreigners who visit
the Fair should see something besides a
great commercial seaport. They should
get at least a glimpse of the interior of
this vast country. and see the gateway
that leads to the Great West, which is
growing in power and wealth every year
and which is destined to control the
destiny OF the country at no distant day.
That such expositions as this stimulate
commerce and invention, and advance
civilization, is no longer a doubtful
problem. The Centennial Exhibition
stimulated men and gave an impetus to
invention the effects of which were mo-
men.ous, and the projected Exposition of
1892. will as far surpass that of the Cen.
tennial as that was superior to all pre-
vious exhibitions held IN this county.

BuBineSs Methods In FarminH.

Northwestern Agriculturalist: "Ignor-
ance. lack of business methods extraya.
gance and mismapagement," are few of
the causes cited by political papers for
the almost universal complaint of small
profits in all branches of farming. These
causes might be taken as sufficient to ex-
,olair the depressed condition of agrlcul-
lure, if it were not true that farmers were
never so intelligent, so business-lke and
so care taking as in the year 1889. With
improved machinery, farmers have been
forced to think and study business
methods Success does not depend alone
on ability to do big days work. Wise
plans and executive ability are necessary

ecutive ability to carry on Successful
