A DESTRUCTIVE HURRICANE.

The gale on Monday night caused a
very high tide and did much damage
all along the cost. AT PENIS Grove
the river banks were overlooked and
badly broken and large treee broken or
uprooted. BY the washing out of a
breach below the old ice house PENIS
Grove was flooded nearly to the top of
Main street and a large gum tree was
undermined at the breach, and in fall
ing it mashed Jarvis Reeyes's sturgeon
boat. The small boats along the shore
were filled and more OF less damaged.
French's grove and the wharf were
badly washed.
Edw. G. Bricks wind mill was blown
over ard wrecked and the steamer Va.
rina, Capt. Samuel Pedrick. on her way
to Courses Landing, was unmanage-
able and blown up against the bank on
the Delaware shore opposite Pcnn's
Grove. She was not got off by Friday
and has Inconvenience the farmers by
l0osing two trips. 1t will cost 500 or
more to get her off. The steamers
Sheridan and Victor did not go out of
the canal until after the blow.
The tide was the highest since 1873
and nearly all the meadows were food
ed and crops damaged. A sluiee was
washed out on s. q. Springer's farm
and all the meadow banks needed re.
pairing. Much damage was done
around Salem where many have corn
and tomato crops in the meadow.
The most damage was done along the
coast of Georgia and South Carolina
where hundreds of lives of families
we're lost by the high sea rolling in.

A young man, of Bridgeton, supposed
to he in love with the young and at
tractive wife of Theodore Nilsson, of
Shiloh, called at her home one evening
recently and threw muriatic acid in her
face aud on her clothes when she open
ell the door. Mrs. Nilsson was badly
burned about the face, neck and breast
and suffered greatly. She had failed
to meet him as requested by several
notes.
The Rev. John Turner, who was re-
Gently elected Pastor of the Deerfield
Presbyterian Church, was installed as
such on Wednesday night. The in

At a meeting Of the Cooperative III
dustrial Association at Woodbury., on
Saturday, it was decided that as soon
as the association has accumulated
$1,000 it will start a grocery store in
Woodbury. for the purpose of giving
the groceries and provisions at reduced
figures. AS soon as a permanent Or
g%anization is effected and the associa.
ton is in good working order it is the
intention to start Il glass works. j. NJ.

The meeting adjourned to meet at the
call of the President.
Samuel W. Wells, a prominent citi-
zen of Bridgeton, died suddenly of pa
ralysis on Saturday. Deceased was So
years old, and was a Justice Of the
Peace. He was also the Secretary of
the Cumberland County Registry
Board, Secretary of the Cumberland
County Board of Excise Commissioners
and Secretary of the Bridgeton Board
of Health. He was Il member of the
Vestry of st. Andrews Protestant
Episcopal Church, and also took an
active part in political matters. His
death has created quite a sensation as
the W. G. II. Z. recently prayed that
the Excise Board might be removed
and the sudden death of this robust Of
Gcer of the Board has reminded some
of the divine wrath. He may have
been a good church man but a mighty
small Christian to act as Secretary to
this infamous Excise Board.

PHrLADELrnrA. August Is, 1898.

"No one to blame but your
selves for the low prices and
little profits" says one of our
greatest producers OF merchan-
disc. "If you had kept up old
prices and not giues your GUS
toners the whole of the conf
dental rebates and almost all
the discounts all hands would
have been making more
money"
Guess it is so. We are
guilty of dividing the loaf with
our customers: Our idea Of
business is to be of the great
est possible service to those
who choose our store to deal in.
Whatever we can save to
them in better qualities and
lower prices, fuller sizes, more
careful workmanship is bound
to be to our advantage in the
end.
1t is the long run we are
counting on. No shouting or
hurrahing, but putting our
statement in plain clothes and
still being old-fashioned enough
to believe that pointing out
defects in goods is better than
allowing our customers to dis
cover them and be aggrieved.
We commenced that way in
1877, and we keep on that
way. except that our manner
of dealing grows more and
more liberal, and we do every
thing that can be done con-
sistently for the greatest good
of all our customers.
We allow return OF all goods,
except Mattresses that might
be slept on, goods for medical
purposes, tooth brushes and
such like, and think we serve
our patrons best by these few
exceptions.
We go to the farthest ex-
IRENE in providing every safe
guard for those who deal here
as to qualities and values. The
confidence the people give us
shall never be misplaced.

States.
Full 81 inches wide and

how the loom men can sneak
cotton into a Dress Stuff
comb it into the wooden yarns,
sometimes. But this manu-
facturer never lets any cotton
enter his door. And he
chooses the wool with jealous
care fine wool, long fiber, clean
and bright.
One dollar a yard has been
the best price we could make
on this Dress Stuff, no matter
how big the lot taken.
But now comes a pleasant
surprise, the price is
SEvENTY-FIvE CENTS.
And for the choicest line of
colors we ever had. Mainly
mixed effects, but there are

pressed metallic powder until the
particles coalesced and formed
solid ingot, thus giving an effect
ordinarily due to heat. An Eng.
fish chemist, Mr.. III. n. Warren,
believes that he has now produced
the chemical combination Of hydro
gen and Oxygen gases, which usu-
ally unite only on the application
of heat, by simple pressure exertfd
at ordinary temperatures. In a
small glass tube, into which were
fused two platinum wires was her.
metic ally sealed cubic centimeter
of calculated water. An electric
current of six volts was applied,
and the water was rapidly decom
posed into hydrogen and oxygen.
until at the end of twenty i've min
utes, when the pressure of the
gases is supposed to have reached
about II 900 pounds to the square
inch, there was a vivid flash, sue
ceeded by violent report, the glass
being shattered and its fragments
scattered with great force. The ex
plosion gave sufficient evidence of
the union of the gases, and INNER
sion of the tube in cold water had
made heating improbable.
INDUSTRIAL RAINrALl:- Steam
disappears in three ways. 1t may
convert its heat into work, and die
in performing the task set for it; it
may give up its heat to another
body, when it must resume its con.
dition of water; or it may bacome
dissolved in the air. SO vast is the
quantity yielded up 10 the air that
it has seemed quite natural to ex oeot
some influence upon climate from
our factories and locomot ves. In
the | ni,ed S.ates, according to a
Sibley College lecture by Mr.. Geo.
ii. Babcock, at least 600, 900, coo
tons of steam is generated annually
for driving engines, $50, 200. 900
tons for heath, and probably
so, 900, 900 tons in various other
processes. That actually used for
work and heat is condensed in the
apparatus, but larger amount is
wasted and thrown out t. add to
the humidity OF the atmosphere.
This probably increases the rainfall
but the processes of nature are on 40
grand scale that even the
600, 600, 900 tons of moisture-in.
GLIDING the steam from evar Grating
kettles and culinary operations -
which may be safely estimated as
the artificial addition must sink into
insignifcance The annual rainfall
east of the Rocky Mountains varies
from 20 to 60 inches, with an
average of not less than 80 inches.
This amounts to some 5000, 900,
900, 900, so that if all the steam in
the Who'll, country were confined to
the east side OF the Rocky Noun
taiDs it could not add over ] $50 Of
!. one per cent to the total ia nfall, OF
, 400 Of an inch-not enough tc

He Got There.

The dlfhdent young man had wanted to propose to the girl, but for the life of him he did not know how to get about it. He read books on the subject and sought information from men who had experience, and while the theories were admirable in every instance, he found that the practice thereof was different thing. He was walking with her one evening, thinking over these things, when her shoe became united. She stuck out her pretty little boot with smile, looked down at it, and he fell on his knees and tied the lace.
 Then he walked on with her, and the shoe became united again. Shoes do that with great persistency, it seems, espe cially these summer shoes. The third time it happened Le was ready, as before
 See if you cant tie knot that will stick" she said as he worked away at it
 He looked up at her tenderly.
 "If I cant, know a man who can, he said.
 Do you want him to tie it?" she asked coquettishly.
 "Yes," he replied.
 She jerked her foot away.
 He smiled to himself.
 Its the parson," he said. and he rost to his feet and finished the work.-De troit Free Press.
