BOB. CARAVANS RUN.
The Prisoner Walked Out of the Justices
Office and Carman Had a Hot Chase.

Constable Bob Carman had another
hot chase after an escaping prisoner Sat
urday afternoon.
Carman had arrested Peter Dolan, a
native of Madcalf lane, in the Third ward,
on charge of stealing a shad net off Ell
mer Garrison's boat, at Bayside. He
was taken to the office of Justice Jesse G..
Davis, who committed him, in default of
bail, for afuture hearing.
Dolan was seated near the door of the
Squlre's office, and was surrounded by a
constable and an ex-constable, johnson
and Carman. Both these were sitting a
little way from Dolan, and not so near
tile door as he
Willte the Squire was writing the COM
mitment, the prisoner kept eyeing him.
Dolan has good reputation as a thief.
1t is said he will steal anything he can
get away with, and it is evident he had
made up his mind to ''steal away" for
suddenly, when Carman looked at the
chair Dolan had been sitting in, behold
the chair was empty, and Dolan was 60
ing down the steps, three at time. He
was in very big hurry.
Bob gotin hurry, too, and soon the
fleeing Dolan and the fieet-footed Carman
were speeding down the street. Carman
was using his lungs, calling on people to
'stop that man." but the people stood
and gazed, a broad grin following their
first amaZement.
Dolan ran down Pearl street. and cut in
Carries and McGear's allies, and made
for the wharf.
Finding the pursuit so hot, the fellow
lodged into John Ogden's work cellar
and hid in a closet, where he was cap
tured. Carman put the nippers on him
then, and finally landed him safely in
Jail.

A Good Appetite

Always accompanies good health, and an
absence of appetite is an indication of
something wrong. The loss of a rational
desire for food is soon followed by lack
OF strength, for when the supply of fuel
is cut off the fire burns low. The system
gets into low state, land is liable to severe
attacks of disease. The universal testi-
mony given by those who have used
HOODS Sarsaparilla, as to its great merits
IN restoring and sharpening the appetite,
IN promoting healthy action of the diges-
tive organs, and as purifier of the blood
constitutes the strongest recommends
ton that can be urged for any medicine
Those who have never used Hoods Sar-
saparilla should surely do so this season.

WEST JERSEY ACADEMY.
Fortieth Annual commencement Wednes-
day Evening,

day Evening.
II Not since the brown stone structure for
the West Jersey Academy was built in
1852. has there been a time when the
school has been more popular or the
commencement exercises more pleasing
and successful.
1t must have been more than satisfac-
tory to the faculty as they sat upon the
platform Tuesday night and gazed upon
the great audience that faced them, for it
showed an appreciative interest in one of
the most popular and successful educa-
tional institutions in the city.
The large auditorium was crowded, and
the people represented the best society of
the city.
The pulpit of the church was very pref
tily decorated with palms and flowers,
and the scene was indeed bright and
cheerful one.
Especial care had been taken in the
preparation of the program, and the re-
suit was one most entertaining and pleas
ing.
Miss Maud Cheshire presented first
superb organ selection, and an especially
arranged large choir sang mighty
Jehovah" Rev. w. j. Bridges conducted
devotional exercises, and the choir sang
the chorus Therefore with Angels
Then followed the first essay, Gather
ering the Parts" by Alfred NJ. Elwell
Like those following, Mr.. Elwell showed
by his paper that he had given his sub
ject much thought, and the ideas We're
new and pointed.
Hear Us Father" a solo and quartette
accompaniment, was presented by Miss
Stadler, Mrs. Kirk, and Messrs. T. Wood
ruff and Janvier. Mr.. Frank L. Bodine,
Jr,, then presented his essay, Islands in
History" The paper showed geographical
research and was very interesting from
historical point.
double quartette, Messrs. A. Wood
ruff, Frederick, Barker, T. Woodruff,
Riley, Janvier, NJ. Fitch, and f. Fitch
was nicely rendered, and the audience
sang chorus led by the choir.
Geo. w. Fithian presented the essay;
"Unnoticed Influence" and it was one of
themo admirable papers of the evening,
and presented an original line of thought
which was decidedly interesting to the
audience. The idea of inheritance of
ability, moral attainments, etc, were we'll
received, and elaborated upon.
Messrs. Janvier and T. Woodruff sang
the duett, clark, Hark my Soul" The
valedictorian, Robert p. Elmer, then
presented his essay 1.-TWO Decisive
Sieges." The young man had his essay
committed to memory, and his manner
of delivery was charming. The valedic-
tory was a pleasing, touching one, and
reflected great credit upon the young gen.
tleman.
Mrs Kirk, Miss Stadler and Miss Rice
sang the trio FLOATING on the Breath OF
Evening"" and Principal P. w. Lyon
awarded the diplomas in a brief, pointed
address to the class.
This was followed by the address to the
graduates by Rev. DR.. Robert II. Fulton,
which was greatly appreciated by all who
heard it, and especially the class.
''Glory to God" recitative and chorus,
by Miss Stadler and the choir. preceded
a few remarks by Rev. H. H. Beadle, on
the proposed improvements of the school
during the coming year.
The benediction was pronounced and
the school year ended with this fiattering
commencement.

OF Interest to shad Fishermen.

PEENSGRoVR, June 9.-The following,
relating to shad fishing during the pres
ent season, is taken from the Record, of
this place, and is pronounced by fisher
men to be fair statement of the season:
Shad fishing is practically at Il close, al
though the law allows fishing until June
18th. The season has been little better
than last year. From 1000 to 5000 shad
were caught to a net in the bay and from
5000 to 5000 at Pennsgrove. The catch
was about double of last year, but
the average price was about half what it
was last year. Last year the average was
about 81 per 100. This year it is about
$40 in the bay and about Sl1 in the river.
The gross amount received is from $500
to 5000 in the bay to net, where in years
past, it has been from 5000 to $1,000. The
amount received i'll the river is from $500
to $3.50. The bay fishermen have not done
as well in proportion as the river fisher
men, because they are under heavier eX-
pense and the freights were raised dhis
year.
Denny Bros, who carry the shad, and
the statesmen will make big season, be-
cause they are paid so much per shad in
stead of percentage. The salesmen's
profits will amount to about 20 per cent.
for selling, as they get two ceuts per shad
On the whole, the season has been a
fair one, as those fishermen who did so
poorly last year kept some of their nets
over, and did not go to such large eX-
