On Monday night one or two residents
of Bushtown, old timers, by the way. at
the business, made a raid on the chicken
roosts at Stockingtown, a suburb of
Alloway, and carried off a nice lot Of
poultry. Not satisfied with this. they
cleared q number of clothes lines of the
davis washing as they returned. Those
to suffer in this respect were VIM. Simp-
kins. Jos. Emmell and Mrs. Philip
Emmell. On Wednesday Constable
Coles made a raid in Bushtown where be
thoucht some of the articles might be
found. and sure enough in 3 search Of
the houses of Sankey johnson and Clark
Johnson, a lot of the goods were found.
Unfortunately the residents were not
secured. Sankey was not at home, and
when the constable alighted at Clsrk's
domicile, Mr.. johnson, no doubt divining
the object of his visit, for a guilty con-
science needs no acouser, suddenly had
business around the house, and when
Consta BILE Coles followed he discovered
his man taking leg bail across the lot into
the woods. He followed him for q short
distant ard fired four shots at him, but
they failed to take effect. These men are
old offenders, and about the only way to
stop their depredations is to keep them
at Trenton.

A Man ALLIED by the Salem Freight
Train. q

John Payne, a 20 year old oolored man,
was instantly killed early Sunday morn
ing by the south bound freight train, on
the Swedesboro and Woodstown road,
peal PaIkVille station. The engineer saw
the man lying on the track evidently
asleep, but as too near to prevent the
accident. The attendants on the train
returned and secured the mangled body
of the unfortunate man and took it to
the next station. Payne's home was In
Warren county, Va, but he had been
employed as a farm hand with Edward
Heritage, near Parkville. Coroner Parker
held an inquest on Monday night. The
testimony left doubts as to whether the
man was killed by the train or was dead
when it struck him. The engineer saw
the man lying across the track and blew
his whistle, but failed to attract his atten-
tiou, and owing to the heavy grade was
unable TO stop. Payne had spent the
evening at Woodbury. and was accom-
panied by a friend to a short distance
from the scene of the accident. The
man had qnite a s u of money with him
on Saturday, but when found had only a
small quantity of change in his pockets.
The Jury gave a verdict of death from
unknown causes.

On Monday Pauline W. Holmes. of
Baltimore, and formerly Of Salem, read
a paper on "The Press" in which
she alluded to the gangs of boy criminals,
not from the slums, but children of
respectable parents, who were melted to
their career of wrong doing by sensa.
tional reading matter, and it has occurred
to many thoughtful minds that criminals
are often made by reading the details of
horrible crimes in the daily papers.
Strong ground was taken against the use
OF tobacco, intoxicants and all narcotics
and gambling.
Allen j. Flitcraft thought it necessary
that there should be some standard that
would enable children to decide just
what gambling is. Any attempt to get
something from another without giving
him an equivalent therefor is wrong,
whether it be a game of marbles for
keeps or a transaction at the Stock
Exchange.
David Bartan Bullock said that parents
should be Careful that children do not
take the inst steps in gambling in their
games at school.
The following resolution was pass d by
the Conference:
Resolved, That this Friends Union for
Philanthropic Labor, assembled at

Yearly Meetings, New York, Philadel,
phia, Baltimore, Genesse, Oaio, Indiana
and Illinois, would earnestly encourage
the efforts of the Government of the
United States and Great Britain toward
national arbitration aud peaceful solution
of disturbing questions.
Resolved, That a copy of these reso
buttons be forwarded to the heads of the
United States and Great Britain and that
a copy be telegraphed to thirtieth annual
Convention of the Universal Peace
Union now in session at Mystic, Conn.
Clement M. Biddle, when it was
announced that all business had been
transacted, opened the closing remarks of
the Conference by asking if the Confer
ence had paid. Has the $40, 900, the cost
of entertaining the Conference, been
repaid by the results that will be attained ?
If we take home each of us, to our own
centres of inf lence all the enthusiasms
and inspiration received bere, then
indeed will our expenses be we'll repaid.
