HUNDRED TON MAeAzINEoRDER

Al event in periodical literature, not without
its significance to the general public as showing
the growth Of the reading classes, was the re-
ceipt on the 9th OF November by The Cosmopoli-
tan Magazine of the order given below. A sin
gle order from q news company for one hun
dred tons OF magaZines! That is almost an
event In the history of the world. A like order
has never before been made, and II past ratios
be maintained 1t means considerably more than
mopolitan. Yet, when the list of authors and
artists In the December number is examined,
one Is not so much surprised. 1t contains the
only known unpublished manuscript of De Maui
PEASANT, Illustrated by Verge, perhaps the most
famous of European illustrators; After the
Worlds Fair, by Paul Bourget, Johu J. ingalls,,
William Dean Howells, Lyman j. Gage, Arthur
Sherburne Hardy, Mark Twain, Robert Grant
and others nearly as famous, and nearly two
hundred Illustrations, to which the following ar
lists contribute: HopkinSon Smith, Kemble,
Harry Fem, Il. o. Small, Atwood, Henckel,
Dan Beard, Reinhart and Remington. Think of
having the Worlds Fair done by such expensive
men as HOwells, Mark Twain and Paul BOur-
get, and sending such artists as Charles 5. Rein
hart to Chicago for a single number of a maya
ton 1212 cents. A book publisher. preparing
such a book would not dare Incur these expenses
short OF $500 a copy. 1t is not q revolution that
is an Improvement upon old methods q revOlu-
ton of vast importance to the reading public?
The order to which reference Is made reads as
follows:
Publisher Cosmopolitan, Dear Sir:-Of the
300, 900 copies OF December number to be sent us,
please send as follows: l72,650 copies regular
edition, 27,250 copies II. II. edition. Yours res

SALEM COUNTY BOARD OF CHOs-
EN- EREEHOLDERS.

The December meeting was held at
the Court House on Wednesday 18th.
Bills from the several townships and
wards were read, approved and ordered
paid.
$l65 for work and material on Upper
Canal Bridge was ordered paid to F.
Sanville, of Phila. A large bill, in con-
nection with Gloucester county, was al.
so ordered paid for work done on
bridges on the Gloucester county line.

sos for a new fire place heater just put
into the Sheriff's residence. Electric
lights have also been put in the Clerks
and S%urrOgate'sv offices.
Clerk S%innickson stated that he had
received a further reply to his commun.
ication to the Berlin Iron Bridge Co.
relating to the change asked to be made
in the bridge at Courses Landing. The
prosposed change could be made, but it
would entail considerable expense, and
an estimate could not now be safely
made. The draw is strong enough to
( admit of the change and a new pier
would probably have to be built.
The matter was further discussed by
Mayor Acton and others for the petit
TONERS. The Board also discussed the
matter and decided not to make any
alienation to the bridge by a unaiim.
Gus vote.
On motion, the Committee on COurs-
es' Landing bridge was discharged.
Clerk Sinnickson made a statement
that Geo. NJ. Morris, the assessor Of the
West Ward, Salem, had footed up his
duplicate sos, 700 more than the proper
amount, and the City Council of Salem
had petitioned the State Board Of AS
SCISSORS to correct said error. This en-
ror would entail oyer $500 on the prop
erty in the West Ward, Salem, on be-
half of the school fund. The Board
saw no remedy except through the State
Board of Taxation. On motion, j.
Forman S%innickson vas authorized to
represent the Board before the State
Board.
Dr.. W. Scott Smith appeared before
the Board and explained his bill, SIC,
for medical services to Sarah Miller, a
prisoner in the Jail. He was called in
consultation by DR.. Sharp and attend
ed the case until the patient got better.
A vote was taken when the bill was
ordered paid, 8 to 8.

ETY., to solve the very prufund question,
Gan a Niger BlushP" Always in
clined to scientific pursuits, Penn's

Of her ambition at last. The fearless
manner with which she handles a knotty
question like this is sufficient to make
the other centres of advanced thought
ashamed of their very sluggishness.
The scientific height in the county are

spared them the hair-silvering task of
coping with such a question, and they
await her answer with as much COM

fact that there is not a literary debating
