An Instance.

There are those who say that the
public schools are failure and that
the children are made to study too
hard. Some complain because the
teachers insist upon perfect recita-
tons. Others just cannot do the
work assigned because they do not
try and very naturally abuse the
teacher.
At the opening of the Martinsburg
High school last year young lady,
a stranger to almost all there, present
ed herself for admission aud took a
place in the first room. On examina-
ton she was promoted to the third
room taught by Miss Alice Wilson.
She was studious and painstaking
and was soou known as a good girl.
She did not put on airs but just con
tented herself with perfect Rotations.
After time she made up her mind
that she would be a teacher and if
sometime, why not now. Going be-
You'd her course she took up geome-
try and proceeded to master its in
tricaces without asking help of any
one. She did not fail OH Prof. Car
mans examinations and when she
went to Hagerstown and took the
teachers examination neither did she
fail, on the contrary, she secured a
good. certificate and the trustees who
employ her will get more than the
worth of theft money.
Lydia Brown, all of the boys and
girls will recognize the picture, is no
brighter than many who failed, but
she studied. She made the most of
her opportunity, not having hereto
fore been favored as many others were.
The above is written for several
reasons: To call attention to the mer-
itorious work done by Miss Brown
and also to remind others that the
writer was not only ridiculed, but
abused, because he some months since
assured certain young ladies that they
moderated theirabilities, and finally to
show the character of work which can
be done in our schools when pupils
make an effort to Learn.

A DEMOCRATIC VICTORY.
Judge Faulkner Decides That
the Pencil Marked Ballot
is Good.

The contested election case from the
First ward was submitted TO Judge +.
Boyd Faulkner last Friday evening
Wednesday morning the judge rem
dered his decision entering into every
detail ofthe case He approved the
action of the council. as a canvassing
board, in every particular, especially
commencing the manner in which the
record was gotten up.
Most interest centered in the deci-
sion on two ballots which were reject
ed by the elected officers, one of which
was counted by the council and the
other rejected.
The judge approved the action of
the council on the blotted ballot and
declared it good. That being the bal
lot on which the tie was declared and
which gave Mr. Martin his seat, the
only hope Of the attorneys Tor Mr.
Proctor rested on the pencil scratched
ballot.
After citing several authorities and
especially a decision rendered in a
Nebraska case. the court declared the
ballot good, giving Proctor majority
of one vote. An order to that effect
was rendered and Proctor will be seat
ed.
But the case is not ended. At least
one vote was cast and counted for
Proctor which was not legal and there
are three others which will be inves-
tigated. II is the intention of Mr..
Martin and Republicans generally TO
know who is legally elected and until
that is known the contest will con-
tinue. Republicans demand justice;
it is their right and their efforts will
not cease until justice is obtained.
The decision rendered by Judge
Faulkner is tar-reaching in its effect.
By it the provision of law that ballot
commissioners must provide the
necessary supplies open aud ink or
indellible PENCIL for marking ballots
is practically nullihed. OF course
the commissioners must continue to
furnish the means for marking ballots,
but the sovereign and Independent
voter may employ those means or not
just as suits him. 1t is due the judge
that we note the fact that he stated.
that until he had examined number
of authorities, he was of opinion that
a ballot SO marked was Illegal but
the weight of authority being against
that view he was forced to yield.

SPECIAL COURT.
The Judges Listen Patiently to the Story of
the Prosecutor and the Prisoners.

Judge Hoagland and Lay Judges Hen
dee and Ludlam held special term of
Court Monday.
A lot of Orphans Court business was
transacted.
Several prisoners were brought in
from Jail to plead to charges made
against them. They all thought they had
rather be tried now than wait until the
October term.
They were Clarence Garrison and
Aaron Peterson, forgery; Alexander
Smith, assault and battery; Stephen
Wiggar, attempt at misdemeanor; Will
lam Moore, lewdness; Frank Wilson,
larceny. Garrison pleaded guilty, and
Peterson not guilty; Alexander Smith,
not guilty; Stephen Wiggor, not guilty;
William Moore, not guilty.
William Moore was first put on trial.
He was accused of indency along Jeddy's
Pond.
Frank J. Lore, the detective, was first
put on the stand and narrated the cir
cumstances which he had witnessed and
how he had captured the man.
MOOTe was ueleIluou ny y. IL Oil
| Syckel, Esq.
Frank Murphy, who was with Lore at
| the time corroborated the detectives evil
| dence.
| Moore, whose home is in Millyille, was
| put on the stand in his own defense, but
| his story did not amount to much.
Aaron Peterson's case was next called,
and Samuel Iredell, Esq, defended
him.
| This case was the forgery case before
described in the PIONEER, in which We're
concerned Clarence Garrison and John
Loper, Loper however, had nothing to
do with the forgery and knew nothing
about was it; he only in company with
the other two and appears as witness.
1t is charged that Peterson got the
check, the endorsement to which had
been forged, from the baskerville post
office in a letter which was directed to
Isaac Cox, for whom both the young men
worked. Peterson gave the check to
| Garrison who took it to VIM. d. Wilson, S
store in Millville, endorsed it in Mr..
Wilson'S presence, representing himself
to be Isaac Cox, bought some clothing
amounting to Sll.50 and received the
balance for the check in cash. The check
was for 1864.

Will Thorougly Analytic Deadly Anthrax
With View to its Eradication.
DIR. w. Runge, Veterinary Surgeon of
the Newark Board of Health, arrived in
this city Sunday for the purpose of in
vestigating the anthrax now raging
among the stock, in some of the lower
townships of this county.
DR.. Runge brought with him all the
necessary instruments and appliances 70
making meteorological inspections and
observations.
With DR.. r. w. Hewitt, ,she left Monday
morning for the infected districts, and he
will make an exhaustive inspection of
the ravages of the disease.
He will examinethe blood of the infect
ed animals, which have died from the
disease. The blood from the heart of the
dead animals will be used.
He will also examine the blood of ami
mails which have been inoculated with
anthrax lymph.
DR.. A. Clarke Hunt, NJ. D., of the State
Board of Health, will also arrive on the
noon train, and will personally investi-
gate the disease.
A consolation will probably be held in
the office of Joseph H. Powell, President
of Bridgeton Board of Health, Monday
afternoon.

A lady in this city sends us the follow
ing communication, but from the reports
OF the doctors it would seem that any
such quarantine as she indicates would
\be impracticable, though her alarm is
not unreasonable.
''Why Not Guard Better Against Anthrax.
There are good many ways in which
that awful disease, anthrax, can be
better guarded against than it really has
been, if all the stories told are true. In
one instance of which know, one day
last week, man who had just come from
Newport with load of fish, where it has
been found to be raging the worst since
it's outbreak, was peddling through our
city, and hitching his horse along the
different streets, while selling his aqua
tic stock. 1t has also been reported that
the same horse has been taken sick, and
why could not this have been enough to
spread the disease among our horses and
cattle, who happened to pass that way.
Is there no way to stop these peddlers
from so doing? do not see why this
should be allowed. If this is kept up,
our horses and cattle here are in constant
danger, as this particular horse when last
seen could hardly stand on it's feet.
A STOCK OWNER"
The-outbreak of the disease in this sec
ton, is the only one in the State. DIR.
Hunt said that the sensational reports to
the contrary, which were sent out from
Trenton, originated from the ignorance
as to location of those newspaper men.
There is a Lawrence township, a Hope
well township and Dutch Neck in other
counties of the State, and thus those
counties became confused in the reports
of the newspaper men,

FATAL ANTHRAX.
Stock Still Dying From the Disease---A
Dead Cow Gives Deal of
TrOn


Within a radius of one mile of New
port, 5S head of stock have died from An
thrax. There were mules, 10 horses, 3
hogs, and 80 COWS. George Duffield lost
two horses Friday; these horses had
been inoculated for the disease, and with
one dose of lymph died before second
application was given. Several head OF
cows have died in Lawrence township.
Wilbur Davis lost three cows and mule
and Nat. Yates has lost a COW and one
horse.
} The ravages of the disease seems to be
confined to the townships of Downe,
Lawrence and Fairfield. There are no
cases in Dutch Neck or Greenwich town
ship, state special Inspector Powell.
Frank Atkinson lost COW and hogs
on his farm in Gouldtown, but micro
scopical examination Of the blood, made
by DR.. Tremaine, showed no trace of an
thraX in them.
The State has undertaken the inocula-
ton of stock, in the infected districts, but
it compels no one to have their stock
treated. If any one wants their stock in
oculated, it will be done at the States ex- :
pense, and at the risk of the owner. The
State Board does not have implicit faith
in inoculation, but it is the only means
thus far known to prevent the spread OF
the disease.
The State Board desires that the car
casses Of all stock which have died from
anthrax shall be burned, or if this can
not be done, that they be buried five feet
deep, the body covered with lime before
| being covered with earth, and the ground
over the hole in which it is buried be
! covered with gas lime to the depth of foul
or five inches.
The people are generally and willingly
complying with these conditions.
The Fairfield township Board of Health
had quite time with cow that died in
that township. The COW was reported
to be one of VIM. G. Clements and died
in gut standing up to her belly in the
mud. When she was dead Mr.. Clements
said he was done with her and she might
stay there. The Board called on him and
requested him to bury the COW. He de-
clined to do so.
Later his boys came up and said they
had got the carcass ashore and then he
consented to bury it, which he did in the
soft mud on the shore of the Cohansey
When the tide came up the carcass was
washed out and floated up the creek and
settled on an island, which is submerged
when the tide comes up. The Township
Board then took charge of the carcass and
buried it on the island. The tide partially
washed the mud off the carcass exposing
it, and then Special Inspector Powell
took charge Of the case. He ordered the
Board to take up the remains and bury
them on fast land on the shore. The
Board did so and made good job of it.

MORE ARRESTS,
In Connection With the Theft of Poultry.
Think They Have the Gang.


Think They Have the Gang.
Detective Lore and Constable Carman
Friday made several more arrests in
connection with the alleged poultry
thieves. Samuel Housand and Burt Ross
were already in Jail. and Friday these
two officers arrested Mrs. Samuel Hous-
and and her son Edward, and Mrs. Jose
phine Adler, all living in one of the Cas-
sadly houses, on Willow street, and the
well known Daniel Scull. All of these
were charged with the theft of chickens.
Scull was released on $500 bail for a
hearing, which he secured, and the other
three secured bail in the person of John
M. Lippincott.
Detective Lore has been working up
the case for some time, and has displayed
great energy in running the gang down.
There has been over thousand dollars
worth of chickens stolen in this city in
the last few months, and the officers
think they have the gang in sight which
has been committing the depreciation.
If it is so, they may apprehend severe
dose of justice, as the feelings of this
court are not very tender towards chicken
thieves.
