studying the archaeology of southern New Jer-
sey for some time and has found many interest
ing relics. recently. while exploring near May q

found Indian bones, some tortoise shells, an
oddly shaped pipe, bushel basket Of large,
queerly ornamented potsherds, Indian plum
NETS, arrow heads and spear points, jasper

cipal camp grounds along the rivers where the
Indians had permanent settlements.

Plan to Dish the 0ladstonians and Stul-
tify the Home Rule issue.

A Plan to Dish the 0ladstonians and Stul.
tify the Home Rule Issue.
Lord Salisbury is credited in English politi-
cal circles with the intention Of making the
house Of lords most Important factor in shap-
ing the legislation Of the future. Like hia
predecessor, the late Lord BeaconsAsid when
oussed from Office in 1867. the late premier has
plan to dish his opponents and upset Glad
stones program. When parliament meets bills
will be introduced in the house Of lords pro-
viding for an optional eiSht-hour law, the mod
ification Of the law Of entail and the conse-
quent simplifying Of the purchase Of land.
Besides these. 4 measure will be introduced
giving tenant farmers right to all the game on
their holdings. These bills Lord Salisbury,
having clear majority in the upper house.
hopes to pass to q third reading before the COM
mons has settled thoroughly down to work, and
thus force Gladstone's hand. Any attempt
upon the part Of the government to recommit
any one OF these measures would DO sure to
raise an angry protest from the extreme radi-
Gals and the spectacle would be Witnessed not
the first time in English history, OF the house
OF lords posing as the friend Of the working
classes against greed and monopoly.
At the Carlton Club il is argued that the
peers have nothing to lose and everything to
gain by accepting a modified Newcastle pro-
gram. Few Of the members, with the excep-
ton Of minority on the liberal side of the
house, are interested in either manufactures or
trade and therefore an eight-hour law cannot
hurt them. As for the law Of entail, 1t has
been tacitly evaded for the past ten years and
the nobility have no great object in its roten-
ton. So with the game laws. Many land own
ers have OF late years recognized the rights OF
tenants to the game on their holdings in their
leases. SO this would only interfere with a few
ultra-tory squires of the old school, who would
soon be brought to reason by the crack Of the
Salisbury whip.
Ex-Secretary Balfour when questioned az to
the truth of the statement regarding these
rumors remarked: "We shall do our duty by
the people in the future in the past. Real
reforms are not going to be set aside for the
sake Of experiments in the form Of legislatures
for the three kingdoms"

They Resented Unjust Taxation.

The sultan's cavalry and infantry started
from Tangier on an expedition into the coun-
try Of the Angheras yesterday morning. After
burning four villages they met the main body
Of insurgents and brisk exchange Of mus
kerry shots followed, but in short time a ma
jority of the rebels fed Many Of the fugitives
capped in fishing boats. A few Of the insurgents
fought desperately until Haman, their leader,
seeing that the battle was lost mounted his
horse and fed. The troops then returned to
Tangier with the heads Of the rebels they had
killed, for which they will receive Is per head
from the sultan's treasury. They brought with
them a number of cattle and a quantity of
furniture they had relied in the camp of the
rebels. The Angheras claim to have been un-
justly taxed. Their first revolt number of
weeks ago was quieted by the dismissal OF the
ruler who had made the exactions

SMOKED A HUNDRED CIGARETTES
Joseph Gibbs Did 1t in Eight Hours to VIII
R2O

Joseph Gibbs, Patterson en- j. cigar maker,
has smoked 100 cigarettes within eight hours for
a wager of $50. The performance took place
in the back room of a cigar store on Main street
in that city. Gibbs began smoking at 10 o'clock
in the forenoon. At IL O'Clock he had smoked
ffty-fve. his record for the first hour being
thirty-one cigarettes.
After dinner Gibbs renewed his smoking per-
Torrance, and before o'clock he had finished
his hundredth cigarette. The last one was dis
posed of with apparently as much relish as the
first, although his lips we're badly swollen.
Other than this, he said, he did not feel any
evil effects.
The wager was made with Samuel Lustig. an
artist. Lustig had read in a German paper
about a man In London, England, smoking
eighty-six cigarettes in eleven hours, and Gibbs
wagered that he could beat that performance.
