USING BOTTLES.
Arrested for Using AnOther's
BOttlee

The bottlers of Hudson county have
an association for their own protec-
ton, and employ detectives to keep
track of their thousands of bottles,
that they may not be used by any
bother not entitled to them. A men,
ber of the Association, accompanied
hysa detective came to this city, and
secured several filed bottles, which it
is claimed belonged to the association
of Hudson.
1t Is alleged that the bottles were
filed by Hebrew named Brownstein,
OF Rosenhayn. Complaint was made
before Justice Wells, and warrant
was issued for his arrest. Constable
Ayars secured the man, and this
morning, before Justice Wells, Brown
stein gave bail for his appearance at
Court. The Hudson county Associ-
alton declares that the prosecution of
these people using bottles wrongfully,
will be severe, aud the practice will be
stopped.
The penalty for such offense is
quite heavy.

A Model OF Contentment.

A Vineland fruit farmer, who was
In the city the other day, says that
few people are so contented as the
South Jersey berry picker. "He can
survive the winter" said the fruit
grower upon barrel of pork, bar
rel of flour, plenty of firewood, tobacco
and occasional applejack, and live in
happy idleness. From the time that
strawberries begin to turn red until
the close of the cranberry season in
September, he, with his wife and chill

cent and a half a quart, no matter
what the fruit-growers get in the mar
ket. 1t Is said that some of these fam
lilies make from $5 to $s day."

RIB BROKEN.
Mrs. Hannah Shoemaker Iniure

Mrs. Hannah Shoemaker Injured
Mrs. Hannah Shoemaker, who lives
on the Roadstown road, near the the
road leading to Shiloh, met with a
serious accident Wednesday afternoon.
She had been out driving, and while
preparing to ungear the horse the
animal developed the trick of jumping
forward and running about the yard.
Mrs. Shoemaker clung to the reins and
was thrown down. and the wheels of
the carriage ran over her. One of her
ribs were broken and her face which
badly cut.
Winfield Brooks, who lives on
the adjoining property jumped over
the fence to assist Mrs. Shoemaker,
and he was badly cut across the legs,
which bled profusely. The horse was
finally subdued without damage to
the vehicle.

And old, decrepit woman, named
Mrs. Susan Smallwood, has been
well known about Atlantic City as a
street mendicant for the past twenty
years. She lived In dilapidated old
shanty away out on the meadows at
the end OF Texas avenue, and was so
surrounded by filth that the few
neighbors in the vicinity appealed to
the Board of Health to have the OBJ
noxious hovel, as we'll as the old lady
herself. removed.
Mrs. Smallwood was found Thursday
morning in the midst of squalor, with
fully twenty cats as companions. She
was taken to the house of friend in
the immediate vicinity, after which
the work of clearing the premises was
begun.
In pile of rubbish in dark corner

very valuable tract of land on the
Seven Mile Beach, embracing full 75O
acres, estimated to be worth at least
100000. The property is said to have
been willec to her by her grandfather.
Thursday afternoon two nieces from
Mays Landing took the old woman to
the home of their father, Joseph Small

The muscles of her throat had be-

AN IMPERATIVE DUTY.

The lesson OF the hour is economy.

prices diminish profits. Capacity for
spending is everywhere reduced.

WHO Is TO RLAME2

The Iowa Republican platform, upon
which the party is, doubtless, destined
to be carried down to defeats strange
crazy-quilt of baseless charges against
the present national administration and
weak, faltering attempt to bolster up
prohibition. But the most ridiculous
portion of tine screed is that in which it
speaks of existing conditions as fully
warranted by 1.-The capacity of the DEM
ocratlc party to distress and afflict the
American people," This is the yer.
lest of bosh. What legislation has
so far during the present admin
istration been enacted calculated in
the least degree to distress the
American people? To what Democratic
legislation enacted during the past
thirty years are owing tie gigantic evils
which now handicap the business of
this country? True. there was Dem
ocratic administration four years and
over ago, but what Democratic legisla-
ton was permitted during those four
years to pass the Republican senate?
What legislation has so far during
President CLEyELAND's incumbency
been enacted by Democrats calculated
''to distress and affiict the American
people?" Which party has been making
laws, financial and otherwise, under
which we now suffer. and which have
turned large industrial army into a
mob Of tramps, and sprinkled the face
of the country with broken banks and
closed mills and manufactures?

1t is a matter of congressional record
that no Democratic reform has hereto
fore been allowed to reach the hands of
a Democratic president. 1t is matter
of congressional record that the worst
system of national financiering known
to this country was conceived by Re-
publican statesman, enacted into law
by Republican congress, and signed
by Republican president. 1t is mat
ter of congressional record that the
principal opponents of an honest cur
rency system today are leading lights
and once honored champions of the Re.
publican party. known capacity to
distress and afflict the American peo-
ple!' Such accusations fall fiat, stale
and Improbable in the face of official
records which no demagogical ReDub-
lican platforms in Iowa or Ohio can
gainsay or blot out.

NEW BOOKS.

THE Passing Show" by Richard
Henry Savage, is highly seasoned and
intensely dramatic story just from the
press of F. Tennyson Nicely, of New
York and Chicago. The scene of the
story is in Spanish Honduras; the hero
subordinate officer in the Northern
army during the Civil war. To lovers
OF the sensational the adventures of the
'Select forty" who composed the hero'S
party Will be of absorbing interest, al
though there is at times through the
story disposition to overlook the uni
ties In the desire TO reach climax that
will prove startling. TO those who en-
Joy this style of literature, however, q
few incongruities and Inconsistencies
but add TO the attractiyenesS of the tale.
provided care is taken by the author to
bring about satisfactory denouement
Iii which the villains are discounted,
the hero marrles the girl, and Virtue re-
ceives not only its own reward. but a
large section of the world besides.
Americans in Europe" By One of
Them, is the title of new book from
New York. 1t is readable book, fairly
well written. and interesting to de-
gree, especially to those who have some
acquaintance with our countrymen in
Europe, or who are contemplating So
Journ abroad. The author claims to
present a true picture of American life
in Europe, as seen in its principal cities,
and in the fierce light he throws on the
picture every true American must blush
to see his compatrlOts, with their record
of brilliant achievements, bowling down
before the effete arist0cracies of En-
rope. The evils of sending children
abroad to be educated the writer de-
clareS to be little less than criminal, and
he supports his declaration by depicting
the evils and decentralization of Such
course.
The reader may dissent from the
opinion expressed of Lowell and Mot
ley, but will agree most heartily with
the author that Emerson was Americas
hero thinker and writer, and that mot
to be able to appreciate the character of
Lincoln is enough to damn any Amer
ican."
