SUICIDE AT CEDAKVILLE.
Sick and Dependent Seem to
be The Causes Which Led to
the SOrr0 Wful De ed.


Mr.. John Lummis, a farmer living
with his family near Lummis' mill,
committed suicide last Saturday by
shooting himself in his house.
Mr.. Lummis has not been in good
health, and year or 80 ago under
went a surgical operation. The doc.
tors later told him that he could never
get well and this fact seems to have
weighed upon his mind though moth
ing serious was thought about it by
his friends.
The information which has reached
this office at this writing is not very
full, but 1t seems that he arose pretty
early this morning and going into the
front room of his residence shot him
self with pistol.
Mr.. Lummis was comparatively a
young man not being over As years of
age; he leaves widow and three chill
dren. and several brothers and sisters
in Cedarvile, this city and Philade,-
phia.
The sad event was quite shock to
the community.

The Citizens Municipal League re-
ceived another knockout Saturday,
this time the rebuff coming from
the famous MON" Kelly.
Mrs. Kelly has a nice new residence
out near BrickvilIe, where she resides :;
the fire. quent visits of Charlie Jackson
with his beer wagon caused suspicion
that MON" had not forgotten her
business by change of residence.
This suspicion was increased by the
frequent visits of certain miller's
wagon driver on certain day when
Charlie Jackson, Cora Sorden and
others were there. This was the day
when Mrs. Annie Young was arrested
on South avenue very drunk, and
sent to Jail.
Mrs. Kelly was arrested and taken
before Justice Jesse @. Davis that
morning charged with selling pint of
liquor to James Griner, contrary to
the city ordinances, Mr.. @. w. Shoe
maker being the complainant.
When put on the stand Mr.. Griner
testified that he had never been In her
houseIand did not buy anyliquor of the
woman. A Mr.. High corroborated Mr..

connection with II.

p.sHIONABLE MATERIALS.
,uess Trim wings which are This
seasons Fashion Eads.

Shaking of silks and dress materials
ona has but to linger a few moments
at the silk counters of 8. E. McdEAR
6 BRO and notice the exquisite taste
manifested by the fair shoppers, to
nrocure many valuable insights into
the demands of fashion for this season.
Tn the matter OF dress trimmings,
silks have taken the place OF braids,
and one who is observant, sees the skill
80 deftly displayed in selecting them.
For trimmings, the selections are
mostly from the changeable silks and
manageable figured novelties, both In
colors and black. All of these are
verv correct according to this seasons
fashion code, and are much more used
this year than for many years past
The demand seems to be inexorable
this season for silk trimmings.
Corded silks and silks with satin
face, as the Duchess, and plain satins
are much favored by fashion for trim
minps, and the consummate art dis
nlayed by the shoppers In selecting,
matching and comparing as witnessed
at 8. E. McGEAR & BROS is a study
to the observer.
Another noticeable feature of the
silk fad, which is now so actively re-
viving is the preference among the
higher circles of young ladies for the
bright and gay Scotch plaids, and the
gay Scotch Tartan plaids. Very
pretty things they are, too; they are
rich as we'll as snowy, and are great
favorites this season.
The patterns of these silks displayed
at NcGEAR & BROS, from the bright
cardinal effects, through the paler,
and greens to the more sombre are be-
wildering to any but the fair custom
ers themselves, whose mandate is but
the law of the seasons fashion.

left the tug and went ashore. Prompt
ly at two o'clock the tug left the bay
and started for Maurice River. The
sail home was without incident, and
the ffice's arrived In Bridgeton early
In the evening. The men were dis
banded, and the work of the Sheriff Is
done, unless he be called out again
Much surprise exists over the out
come of the affair. Il was certainly
supposed by large mt jority of people
that the oystermen would fish there.
Eight boats cast dredges upon the
grounds and they all left without any
'remonsFrance when ordered to do 80.
Not twenty FIVE dollars worth of oy.
sters all told have been taken from
these grounds.
The question has agitated itself more
strongly than any other in Cumber-
land county. 1t has had its { feet upon
society, communities are divided,
friends have parted, families are at
swords points, even the churches are
effected, and the feeling Is becomir e
more and more intense.
The Riparian owners.naturally desi: g
to hold the grounds. They have
bought the title with their own money
and have improved the beds by plant.
Ing. In addition to this there are busi-
ness reasons for determined fight TO
hold the grounds. The beds are the
very best In the bay, the oysters are
OF superior quality and are many in
quantity. But the chief reason that
makes the grounds more valuable, is
the fact that these beds are dredged 10
the summer time, when the other beds
are closed by law. This Is one of the
serious oil jections of the oystermen.
They are doing all they can to get the
Legislature to enact law preventing
oystering being done out of season, up
on the Riparian grounds or any other.
The present situation Is that there Is
mutual understanding that the
oystermen will not dredge the grounds
If the Riparian owners do not,
and then let the Courts settle the
matter. Some of the Riparian own
ers believe that this will be the best
course to pursue. Other owners feel
that they should not make any con-
cessions at all, and one or two of them
declare they will dredge next week.
The oystermen will have an eye for a
movement like this, and If the dredges
of any owners gees on these grounds,
1t is not unlikely that big feet will
Immediately raid the grounds for
plants.
Many oystermen claim that the
Riparian owners feel no security In
their possession, and are not anxious
to get the matter in court. What they
want, 1t is said, to get an opportunity
of taking up the oysters they have
there, and abandon the grounds. This
the oystermen declare will not be per-
mitted.
The Riparian owners have a watch
boat upon the grounds at all times, 10
get evidence against any trespsssers. A
feeling seems to prevail that now the
Sheriff has returned, that the boats
will dredge the grounds. A couple of
days, the fleet at work In that vicinity
could practically ruin the beds. If the
oystermen do this, they will weaken
their position. Ifthey honestly believe
they have right there, they should
have disregarded the Sheriff's orders,
and taken the oysters, and if arrested,
the case would go before the Courts
promptly aud In a manner In which 1t
could be soon disposed of.

A young woman who has suffered for years from what the doctors have called nervous dyspepsia" wishes me to state to my readers that she has been completely cured by dropping medicine and living almost entirely upon Bovinine.
 This am very glad to do, for have in scores of instances seen the excel lent effect of this liquid preparation of the purest beef upon friends and &C., quaintances. I have known 1t used also with the best effect upon young children, and even those that were ir- ritable and ill during the teething pro- cess. Bovinine is always safe, and l have never yet heard of an instance that it did not strengthen and build up. This is owing to the fact of it's making no tax upon the digestion, and because of its perfect assimilative qualities. For those who are apprehensive of grippe, this benign preparation acts like a charm. Eleanor Kirk
