Church Troubles.

Since the glass factories at Glassboro
resumed operations there has been
trouble, it is stated, in some of the
churches. Calvin Chew, member
and Sunday teacher of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, it is
stated, canvassed the town for boys to
go to work in the non-union house
started by Whitney Brothers This
action, it is said, was displeasing to the
glass workers, who make a large por-
tion of the congregation, and who
threatened to leave the church if Mr..
Chew did not resign. The matter
terminated in Mr.. and Mrs. Chew leav-
ing the school. The revival meetings
which have been in progress have con-
cluded with very small results as com
pared with the very successful meet
ngs last year.

Assemblyman Bale, of Sussex, has
introduced a bill in the Legislature of
great Importance to farmers. The
present bill takes the place of the one
introduced early in the session and
which provided for the uniform charge
of % cents per can for each ten miles
drawn by the railroads. The new one
limits the price to Is cents a can from
any point in the State to points out
side. This is to o5viate the long and
short haul complaint which is heard
so frequently among farmers in differ
ent parts of the State. The bill further
requires the railroad companies to re-
turn the empty cans free OF charge.
This bill is especially applicable to
Hunterdon county farmers, where
they are obliged to pay as much to
ship milk go miles from New York as
200 miles distant.

NO CONFESSION.
Mrs. HiIlman Denies Telling the
Story.

The Philadelphia papers Saturday,
printed an alleged confession from
Mrs. Hillman, through the father of
Joe Hillman, that she killed the Jewish
peddler, for which crime her husband
was hung. The story created consid-
erable interest in this city, and the
horrible affair, shrowded in such great
mystery, was again reviewed. 1t will
be remembered that Joe Hillman, on
the day of his hanging, exonerated his
wife from any connection with the
crime, and it was never supposed she
would volunteer a confession.
Investigation proves that there is
much bad feeling between the younger
Mrs. Hillman, and the old gentleman,
and the latter few days since made
an effort to run off with Mrs. Hillman's s
baby. The young widow declares that
now, out of revenge the old man is tell
ing that she confessed the murder to
him. Mrs. Hillman has put the case in
the hands of Harris & Scovell, and the
old man is to be sued for criminal libel.
Mrs. Hillman is at work as domestic
in a Camden residence.

Another Disorderly House.

An Italian, name unknown, residing
on Cherry street, was arrested Fri
day, charged by Marshal Creech with
keeping a disorderly house, selling
beer, ETC., and hearing was given him
before Mayor Lord. A number of wit
nesses took to the woods before the
subpenas could be served on them,
and but four were on hand at the
hearing. One of these had been there
several times but saw no beer, and so
of course bought none; the other three
had drank beer there a number of
times, but had never paid for it. The
foreign gentlemen must be very liberal
to give away beer to strangers. Vine.

BOTH ARRESTED.
"A FIST FIGHT ON SATURDAY
NIGHT.
A Racket at Il Fair Winds Up
with the Arrest OF the Be
Iigerants.

AT the Catholic Fair Saturday night,
there was little difficulty commenced
which resulted finally in the arrest of
two young men, who spent the night
in the lookup. The reports of the af-
fair are somewhat confiting, but the
preponderance Of testimony goes to
show that Mart Bowe, peaceable
young glassblower, was enjoying the
pleasures Of the Fair, when Winfield
johnson. notorious as one of the
roughs of the town, and who became
generally known as jail-breaker, by
running away from Sheriff Shaw, ia
terfered with Boae, and endeavored
to create a dist urbance. Bowe re-
manned quiet uuder the persecution of
johnson for some time, and then the
attentions of others was attracted, and
an officer was sent for Before the Of
ficer arrived however, patience ceased
to be a virtue with Bowe snd he
started out with Johuson TO have the
matter finally settled As they were
going down steps, Officer Campbell,
who was just entering the door, heard
ooe of them remark, I'VE will go up
in Church Lane and have it out"
The officers followed the two young
fellows, and when he arrived on the
scene, both were upon the ground and
slugging each other for all they were
worth. He arrested both and they
were taken to the lookup.

Fine Writing.

Captain Brnnyate, of East avenue,
received last week postal card which
was written by a salesman in the office
of John A. English, oyster dealer, in
Philadelphia. The card contains 5000
words, and was written with an ordin-
ary steel pen; the writing comprises
the first seven chapters of Leviticus
and half of the eighth chapter, There
is still room on the 200 more words.
The salesman declares his ability to
write the Lords Prayer on one half of
a split garden pea.

A Mass OF Bills.

Since 1874, the New Jersey Legisla-
ture has passed over twenty thousand
bills. Out of this number 14,260 have
received executive approval and been
embodied in the statutes 1t is high
time that there was clearing away of
much of this legal bric-a.brac. The
last house-cleaning acts passed at the
sessions of 1874 and 1875 wiped out $40
defunct laws. Many have been wiped
out by repealers, but there still re-
main about $4,000 statutes more or less
operative, indicating the possibility of
of being governed too much.

A we'll known drunk fell asleep in

SERIOUS RUNAWAY.
A Pair OF Horses Do Considerable
Damage.

Monday afternoon shortly after
four O'Clock, Andrew Schenbach, who
lives in Hopewell, was driving down
Broad street, with double team and
a load of hay. When opposite the
Burgess & Montelius shirt factory
building the hay slipped off the wagon
frightening the horses and they started
on hard run. The driver was thrown
off the wagon, and slightly injured,
while the team dashed over the bridge.
The wagon first collided with Get
singer & Sons delivery wagon, bend
ing the axle Then mule hitched to
a coal cart belonging to Cohansey
Glass Company was collided with, and
one leg of the mule badly injured q
deep hole being cut directly over the
boof. 1t was taken to Patterns sta
ole for treatment. The team then col
lided with J. B. Clark's butcher wagon,
which had in it e beef, and Ed Jones
was driving it.
After the collision the wagon was not
recognizable. There was not enough
left of the wagon to tell what sort of a
vehicle it had been. Jones was takeL
from the wagon wreck. and was found
to be pretty badly bruised, and F. B.
Williams carried him home. A physi-
clan was sent for and quite cut was
found in the head. There are no seri-
GUS results apprehended however. One
of the horses was quite badly injured

Meeting the Oystermen.

Assemblyman John Glaspell has had
bill placed in his hands, relating to
the oyster industry of the county, and
the person offering it is anxious to
have it become d law. When the bill
was presented, it was claimed that it's
provisions were entirely satisfactory to
all the oystermen. Mr. Glaspell made
a careful examination of the bill, and
then thought it best to give the oys-
termen an opportunity to examine IL
closely. Friday Mr.. Glaspell re-
turned from Trenton, and that night
went to Port Norris for the purpose of
meeting the oysternen of that place,
to consider we'll the bill.
