VINELAND, N. j., April 17th.-Fright-

injured, and horse had to be killed.
Crowded together at the Newfeld depot

teams unloading freight, when an un-
usually loud jamming of box cars start
pair of powerful horses attached to
heavy wagon from Fox's flour mills.
The frighted horses dashed into a group
of farmers, knocking them down, and
causing three other teams to run away.
Philip Smick, of Daretown, driver of
the Fox team, and Joseph Mignogno, a
farmer. of Minotola, who came to his
rescue, clung determinedly to the mad
dened animals, and were dragged into a
wire fence, knocked down, trampeled
upon and run over by the mil, wagon.
Smick's head was badly cut by the wire
fence, and his body seriously bruised by
the horses hoofs and wagon wheels.

MAKE IT HANDSOME.
Firemen Should Have Pleasant Quarters In
the New House.

the New House.
The members of the Bridgeton Fire
Department, will soon be called upon to
change their headquarters and move in
the new structure on Orange street.
When it comes to move the furniture of
the old sitting room and meeting head
quarters, they will feel almost ashamed
take the worn, dilapidated furniture
in the handsome new room.
A prominent business man in discus
sing the matter yesterday said that the
out greatly. The Department will be
called upon. to furnish the sitting room
out of its own resources. The City Coun-
ciPs appropriation is for the fire appa-
ratus, repairs, etc. The boys get So per
month and they cannot we'll afford to
give much of that for carpets, curtains,
furniture and brio brac. Yet the room
should be made most attractive, and by
so doing the members of the Department
would be sure to be about the house dur
ing their idle time.
When the old room was furnished the
carpet was presented the Department by
some of the insurance companies. That
experiment would be we'll worth repeat
ing. The various insurance companies
here could get together, and furnish the
boys with handsome carpet. and the ex-
pense to them would be trif1ing. Busi-
ness men could add some other bit of fur
niture or necessary article, and it would
be gift to most worthy cause. There
should be a desk, some chairs, two or
three tables, hassocks, curtains, orna-
ments, pictures, &c. One tirmcould make
some one of these donations, another firm
some other article. The rooms would be
always attractive, and the boys would
spend their idle hours right there. The
result of this would be more prompt re-
sponse to alarms, and the consequent
saving of property. Nobody knows how
soon the firemen will be called upon to
save his particular property. The dona-
ton or gift of any merchant may be
doubly paid for in heroic service by the
Department at any time. Why not act
upon this suggestion, and assist in max
ing the sitting room of the laddies one
that will be a pleasure to them and a
credit to the city.

workshop. His daughter helped him and
carried the last basket and poured on the
pile of burning rubbish in the yard.
Miss Pierce then walked away toward
the house. and when about thirty feet of.
turned and looked at the bonfire, just
as she did so, shot was heard from the
burning rubbish and at the same time
she received load of shot in her eye and
face. Her father ran to her assistance

was found her eye had been shot out.
DIR. D. r. Streets was Immediately sum-

suffering girl that night. Yesterday
morning she was taken to a Philadelphia
hospital for treatment.

workshop. 1t is supposed this cartridge
fell down in the rubbish, and is the one
which caused the accident. Her father is
grief stricken.
Miss Pierce is one of the brightest

year. She is fine young woman, and

HELD UP.
Says a Gang Threw Stones Through His
Windows and Did Considerable
Damage.

Damage.
The vigilance of some of the hollow
ware glassworkers hersabouts will make
serious trouble if the vigorous action con-
tinues.
1t is we'll known that all of the roads
leading into Bridgeton are carefully
guarded by many men, and reports are
daily made that entirely innocent persons
are held up and sometimes treated in
manner that is not commendable.
Friday night Daniel Parker, one of the
proprietors of the Parker Brothers. Glass
works, had an experience, and his story
is as follows:
Thursday night there was large num-
ber of people about his factory and their
actions caused excitement and the men
and boys employed at the factory were
interfered with. Some of the 2men were
smoking about the oil tanks, which is a
very dangerous practice.
Friday night Daniel Parker thought he
should go to his factory and see if there
was any trouble. He started out on his
wheel, and when he reached the railroad
crossing, near his factory, about fifteen
men and boys loomed up in front of him.
They were nearly all armed with canes
or broom sticks. The crowds demanded
of Mr.. Parker his business, and he was
obliged to dismount from his wheel.
When it was discovered who he was,
they said, "Oh, we didn't know it was
you."
Mr.. Parker demanded to know why
these guards we're placed about his place,
and they replied that they were sent out
there from headquarters, and knew their
business. Mr.. Parker talked sharply to
the men, and then continued on to the
factory.
The crowd of men was so great that
Mr.. Parker telephoned to police head
quarters. and Officer Betchner came out
to the factory, gave the men warning
and escorted Mr.. Parker to his home.
Mr.. Parker said that on Thursday night
man going out Rosenhayn avenue, was
chased across fields and nearly frightened
out of his wits. Mr.. Parker says he knows
two of the gang who held him up, and
will make an investigation. The crowds
don't come there in the day time, but are
on duty every night. He further says
that if he had had a revolver last night
he would nave killed more than one of
the assailants. He will be armed in the
future.
Mr.. Parker's factory is one of those re-
Gently unionized.
Another Attack.
Silas Bachelor, watchman at the
Cumberland works, came down town
this morning and said he had an expert
ence last night with a crowd of roughs.
He lives on North Laurel street, and about
half past eleven o'clock, he claims, a
crowd came about his place and threw
stones and bricks at his dwelling. One
of the bricks came through his window
and knocked over a lamp. the oil running
out over the floor. His wife narrowly
escaped serious injury. He has the
names of eight of the crowd, and there
may be some arrests.
In their own defence the men say that
Bachelor is an excitable fellow and
shoots off a revolver, exciting the men
and boys up that way.

the ten blasts were blown loudly and the
employees all stopped their machines
and dropped their tools and hastened to

During the action, several accidents
