lege and School of Shorthand, conduct
ed by Prof. H.. S. GOldey who spoke at
the commencement of Penn's Grove
school. This catalogue is one of the
handsomest ever issued, showing photos
of every department as well as a fund of
practical talk on the needs of a BUSH

College to Penn's Grove should merit
some students from this town. See ad-

port SO as to supply locomotives with
water, The well is twenty feet in di-
ameter. They dug down a short dis
tance and struck Il small spring; they
soon went through that, but kept on
digging until the well was eighteen feet
deep; then only a foot of water would
run in the well. AS a last resort, they
bored down six feet ten inches further,
when a stream of water spurted up,
bringing with it gravel and red clay.
The hole was only an ince and a half in
diameter, but in a short time there was
ten feet of water and it still kept rising.
The water is now of a peculiar blue
color.
The excursion to Wildwood next
Wednesday will be the best excursion
