Miss Arehambauit-s Art exhibition.

The art exhibition given in Philadelphia
last week of the work Of Miss Archam-
baulPs pupils was highly successful and
attracted much attention from the public
and from the press. From the
Bnlesn of Friday we clip the following:
The lnclement weather did not keep Wis.
itors away yesterday from the well-equip-
ped studio and apartments of Miss A.. NJ.
A~rchambault, at No. 1909 Arch street.
The occasion was an interesting display oil
the recent work of herself and numerous
pupils, and the various objects shown
challenged general admiration. The ex.
hibition is of a varied nature. and shows
the talent, skill, taste and judgment oil
amateurs in tapestry, china paintings,
aquarelles, crayon drawings and portraits.
That Miss Archambault is a successful
teacher is astonishingly demonstrated by
this display, for the greater part of the
work shown is really remarkable in tech.
nical excellence. The decorated china is
especially beautiful, the tinting and color.
ing being marked by a delicate touch and
confident stroke, while the designs
brought out show creative ingenuity.
China painting is a difficult branch but
the pupils of Miss Archambault have ap.
parently mastered its intricacies. The
tapestries and embroideries call for com
~mendation; the portraits are well done, and
several of the water colors are nicely
toned and treated. It is easily seen that
the teacher has not only instructed hel
pupils in the technical difficulties of the
various branches, but she has inspired
them to cultivate originality in method and
design.

The burr was removed from the axle Of
the carriage Of a young mar from Swedes-
boro, who was attending a party in
Woodstown last night, and the wagon was
thrown down, but fortunately no injury
was done to the occupants. It's a shame
that such cowardly wretches cannot be
discovered.
a valuable bull belonging to Jos. K.
Lippincott jumped into the ice house on
the farm last Sunday week, and has been
imprisoned ever since. AS the door is
some ten feet above the floor of the house,
and the animal is not of the most angelic
disposition, Mr.. l.. is in a quandary as to
what means he shall use to release him
Geo. w. Ayres' force of millwrights be-
gan work this week on the flood gates at
I. l.. Davenport's mill in South Woods
town, where new gates will be put in at
the lower end of the dam. The pond will
be drawn oft tomorrow, and will remain
off about two weeks, until the work is fin
ished. A cob-crusher, for cob meal wi i'll
also be placed in the mill.
The Philadelphia Star of Tuesday says:
The Delaware river road to Centre Square
and Pennsgrove, is under most obliging
management. On Sunday morning last
the train was stopped to allow a passenger
the opportunity to catch a young rabbit
The effort was successful. The engineer
approaching the situation put spurs to his
locomotive and reached Centre Square on
time. Perhaps he was ahead of time when
| the rabbit chase took place.
A recent law of the Legislature author
ICES county Boards of Freeholders to ap-
propriate So, 600 for the erection ofsoldiers'
monuments. The Hudson county Free
holders nave passed a resolution appropri-
ating the necessary sum for a monument
in the county. A condition is that repre-
sentatives of the Grand Army furnish a
like amount. Before the county money
can be touched the Grand Army represent
atives must have paid in one-balf Of their
contribution.
Dry goods-imp ported ones-have adj
vanced materially in price under the new
| tariff, and those who deferred purchases
until now regret their lack of foresight.
And now that prices are going up on near
ly every kind of goods needed by the work
ing as well as other classes, q naturally
suggested and suggestive question is, how
do the working people fare in the matter?
If the prices of the necessaries of life ad-
vance,, wages will have to keep pace with
them; but thus fan nothing is said on that
point.
The Pilesgrove township Boards of
Registration met for organization on
Tuesday at their respective polling places,
the South District naming Maurice B.
| Elton and Charles 3. Grier as poll clerks,
and the North District naming J. w.
Dickinson chairman, and Franklin Fit
| craft and John Sherer poll clerks. The
registry canvass was begun on Tuesday,
and has been completed. The Boards will
| sit next Tuesday from 7 A. NJ. to 8 P. NJ.
to make up the poll list and receive any
proper additions to the list.

Death of Mrs. Ham.

The circumstances attending the decease
of Mrs. Ann Ham were so peculiarly sad
as to REQUIRE brief mention. Mrs. Ham
was the widow of the late Edward Ham,
of Alloway, and was left alone a few years
since to battle with life as best she could,
having a child or two to support with such
scauty u as should come from her
own unaided efforts. Worse than this, she
was afflicted with a terrible cancerous af-
lection, developing no less than from ten
to twelve malignant cancers upon her per-
son at one time. Life under these circum-
stances as at bt st but a constant, hope
less struggle, only to be relieved by the
kindly hand of death, and for which relief
she earnestly waited and yearned.
Less than a fortnight since Mrs. Ham
went over to Salem to liquidate some
small bills owing there, among others the
funeral expenses of a child. In converse
tiou with Undertaken Lawson at the time,
she remarked: Il want to pay the burial
expenses of my child in full, as it will not
be long before you will have another bill
on my account, when you come to bury
me- On her return home she was let out
at the residence of Mrs. DR.. Wallace, (for
whom she had been attending to some
business in Salem) and was never again
permitted to see her own home, dying at
the residence of the doctor. The deceased
was the daughter of the aged Mr.. and Mrs.
jeremiah Weldon, living at Fairton, Cum
berland county.

while the vows between the youthful pair
were uttered; stood side by side IN the
crowded drawing room after, and watched
and were glad in the happiness they saw,
hut scarcely spoke to each other, though
until that morning they had only once met
since that revelation Adele plade.
When the bridal party went away, and
the guests disappeared, Lily took refuge
in her boudoir; but the countess could not
follow har example, for Clifford still
fingered and they sat together in the
very apartment where Adele had fought
SO sorely with her demons many weeks
before
II Think Clifford said, after long
talk, that God has forgiven US both, and
allows us another chance of happiness.
Let us forgive each otherl Adele, love
you: / have always Come to me; let us
be at rest
She crept tearfully into the shelter Of
his arms, and knew that after all her
errors, her mistakes, she was permitted
to lind peace, and the last trace Of world
illness slipped from her with the coronet
which had been so dearly purchased, and
which she dung so gladly away. .znr

RENTS TN ELIZABETH.
Landlords Are Trying to
Boom Them, and Mer-
chants Are Very
Mad.

ELIZABETH, Jan. II, ls90.-At no
time in years have the business men
of Elizabeth been so agitated over the
question of location and rents as at
present. In almost every instance
tenants of stores on Broad and other
streets of the city have been informed
that on the 1st of April next, the
annual moving day, the time
for the expiration of leases, their
rent would be raised. This
is due to the pressure brought
upon landlords by outside merchants
who desire to locate in this city, and
who have in many instances offered
higher figures for stores now occu-
pied. In one case, that of corner
store, the rent is said to have been in
creased two hundred dollars, and yet
the present occupant will remain. In
another case one dealer has rented
two stores over the heads of the two
present lessees, and will make extern
sive alterations, throwing the two
stores into one and occupying both as
~ QI4S SIOICs L l1S Two 0CllClo WIZ
will have to vacaIe will retire from
business, in all probability, as there
appears to be scarcity of stores near
where they have been doing business.
1t is said that the building corner of
Elizabeth avenue and South Broad
street win shortly be opened as bank,
to be known as the .sSouth Elizabeth"
or South Broad Street Bank, for
fha fftny ~ frntan1soi kN11ciIancc
A rumor is also current that the old,
Broad street, near the bridge, and
owned by Amos Clark, will be re-
modelled and moved forward flush
with the sidewalk, and large hand
some stores added to the building.
A large clothing concern of Newark,
it is said, is seeking a location in
Elizabeth, as also is boot and shoe
manufacturer, coupled with the desire
of large furniture dealer of Newark
to establish q branch house here
speaks in no mild way of the healthy
condition commercially of this city,
and of the amount of hustling our
own dealers will have to do to retain
their stores. Ii the boom which is
now on the tapis realizes itself, what
a splendid opportunity there is to
tear down some of the old huIks ON
Broad street and erect buildings and
stores that would be an investment
and an ornament to the street?
1t would only be a natural conse-
quence to see many changes in the
character of business on Broad street
after April 1, as the threatened in
crease of rent, which runs from $40 to
$40 per month, will not be submitted
to, and the present dealers will move
rather than pay the demand.

LINKED COAST RESORTS.
Spring Lake and SeaGirt to
Join Their Fortunes
for Business.

AsBuRY PARK. Jan. II, 1904
company with nearly 81, 900, 600 capital
has been organized here for the pur-
pose of acquiring all the property now
owned by the original land companies
at Sea Girt and Spring Lake and CON
solidating the two towns, now only
separated by Werck Pond. Spring
Lake has made great advances
since the time of its establish
ment, and men in the syndi
cate which originally owned the
tract have sold lots from time to time
until now they own over forty per
cent. Of the lots. With every sale of
land the place has improved until now
it is one the handsomest and most de-
sirable resorts on the Monmouth
county coast. Sea Girt, on the other
hand, has never really been improved
or opened to the public. Only one
tenth OIL the property owned by the
original owners has been sold. The
greater part of it has been used for
farming purposes for the past hundred
years. 1t was the site of the Commo-
dore Stockton farm, and now includes
in its limits the old Stockton home
stead, and the camping grounds Of the
State militia.
The reasons for consolidating the
two places, briefly stated, are that
there may be no difference relative to
the free use of the Wreck Pond by tho
owners in both places; that the keen
ing OF the pond in order and the main
tenance of the dam at the eastern end
will not be subject to discussion by
two or more interested parties, and
that the expenses of such maintenance
will be paid out of one common fund.
that the Introduction of water works
electric lightning or gas or sewer sys-
TENS may be more readily and cheaply
accomplished, and that they shall be
regulated by rules and restrictions
OF one, rather than two corporations.
and in general that the interests OF the
two places shall be considered identi-
cal and in no way conflict with each
other.
1t is the intention of the new com
pany to put all the roads leading to
and through both places in the best
possible condition, Law long flag eurbs
and walks, while a separate corpora
tion will provide artesian water works
for domestic use and fire purposes
electric lighting, a sewer system. and
q gas plant. The costs of these i'm
provements is placed at $3.50, 600. In
the development of these places it is
not proposed to encourage excursions
or the bringing in of any undesirable
element. but rather to aid in and se-
cure the building of substantial cot
tages and hotels on liberal areas of
