OPIE READ ON HEAT.
Famous Story Writer Discusses
Hot Wave in Chicago.
Only Contcnted Creature Is the An

Truthful stories About tho

At time when London was boiling
with heat u famous humorist wished
that he might take off his flesh and sit
in his bones. If he were in the aver

ever further than that, writes Opie
Read in the Chicago American. He
would insist that the bones should be
scraped. When Chicago suffers from
heat the rest Of the country Is in ag-

the New Yorker reeks. And this is at
present about the only consolation we
have-that some one else is hotter We
all of US allow that it is but meager
comfort; 1t does not restarch wilted

but somehow 1t helps.
Out Of perspirng obscurity has come
the ancient citizen TO tell of hot wealth

mometer tells him that he lies, but
that makes but little difference; ther.

Shad Fishing.

Pennsgrove, May 5.-The toothsome
Delaware shad came up the lower
river during the past week in large
numbers, and the "gilles" enjoyed
big catches during the week. Early
in the week some of the nets caught
from 200 to 325, and later they aver
aged from rs to $50. Over 20, 900 shad
were taken to market from this place
on Monday by the market boat.
Down the bay most of the fishermen
have had good week, but because of
the presence of so many greentails
some of the fishermen have left Bay
side. Several sturgeon were caught
at Caviar and Bayside during the
week.
The shad fishermen ON the upper
Camden shore are becoming disgusted
with their poor luck. One day last
week, when the big Faunce net
was hauled in, there was not single
shad to be found. Much speculation
is heard ON the "May rum of shad,
which, it is hoped, will make up for
the scarcity since the opening of the
season.

A DISTRESSING
ACCIDENT MONDAY NOON
Joseph s. Miner Falls on Bad
Pavement and His Leg is
Broken as a Result.

Just at twelve O'Clock Monday,
Joseph S. Miner, former postmaster,
now with the Bridgeton National
Bank, met with distressing accident
He had started home, and in going
by the Western Union Telegraph
office, caught his foot in the raised
pavement in front of the jewelry store,
and fell heavily.
He was assisted in the United
States Express office, and DR.. Jacob
Streets called. An examination was
made and it was found that the right
leg was broken above the knee. Mr..
Miner was then placed upon a
stretcher and taken home i'll an ex-
press wagon.
The accident was caused by the
wretched condition of the pavement
about the Grosscup block. John NJ
Laning had placed new pavement in
front of his establishment and the cid
Grosscup pavement, filled with holes,
is considerably below the grade,
making dangerous place for pedes-
trians. 1t was this that caused the
very distressing accident.

Shot a Highwayman.

Vineland, May 5-David Bradway,
a well known young man of Vine
land, lies in a precarious condition
tonight with bullet in his back, as
the result of an exciting battle with
footpad late this afternoon. While
driving though the country a desper-
ate looking man rushed from the
woods and endeavored to seize Brad
ways horse by the bride, but failing
in this, the ruffian gave chase and
raced with Bradway's team for sew
eral hundred yards until he finally
succeeded in grabbing the horse by
the bit. Then Bradway belabored the
man with the butt of the whip,
whereupon he released the animal and
after waiting until the team passed
him fired three shots from a revolver
into the rear of the vehicle one of
the bullets taking effect in Bradway' S
back. The wounded man managed to
drive to his home in Vineland where
he was lifted from his carriage in a
fainting condition. After probing in
vain for the bullet Doctors Sawyer
and Cunningham had Bradway sent
to hospital.

HUNT BROTHERS.
GRAYBEARD DANCED
ON HIGH.
Dared to Climb Steel $50 Foot
Tower for a Dollar.

Vineland, n. j., May II wouldn't
climb to the top of that water tower
for q thousand dollars, exclaimed
Edward Hoffman, a well-known citi-
zen of Vineland, as he eyed the length
of the colossal steel structure rom
ground to pinnacle-a height of about
$50 feet.
Neither would I, said John Tripp,
another prominent resident.
whats that you people say? was
the remark the group of men heard
behind them. Turning they saw Will
lard Barcus, tall. gray haired man,
seventy years old, one of the best
known citizens of this community and
well-to-do.
''I'll climb that tower and dance on
the top of it for a dollar calculated
Barcus.
This sally Jared the crowd that
quickly gathered when the old mans
proposition was passed around.
"I'll give you fifty cents if you do, "
said Hoffman. 80 will /" followed
Tripp,
"All right, gentlemen: I'll do the
trick in a jiffy."
Barcus walked to the base of the
tower, glanced up critically, and then,
with the agility of youth, climbed up
the narrow iron rungs, up up, up,
while his friends looked on in wonder
ment, fearing for his safety Over
the sharp edge of the water tank he
crawled like pigmy-so he seemed
to the onlookers far below-and when
he Strengthened up to his full height
on the very top or roof, although a
man over six feet high, he resembled
Liliputian.
Barcus waved his arms and doffed
his hat and danced a little Jig up
there in the air. Then he demanded
his dollar, which was promptly
handed over.

JEALOUS LOVER
SHOOTS HIS RIVAL.
The Vineland Shooting the Result
of Clash Between Lovers of
the Same Girl.

Vineland, May 6.-The severe
wounding of David Bradway by a
supposed footpad as he was driving to
his home in Vineland yesterday,
turns out to have been a deliberate
attempt to murder the young man
after quarrel over a love affair.
Bradway and Joseph Samine had
met during the day with company
of acquaintances at farm house near
Vineland, and were both in love, it is
said, with the same woman. Their
rivalry soon developed into harsh
words, and Broadway, in order to
avoid further trouble, jumped into
his carriage with the intention of
coming home.
AS Bradway drove from the house
a friend of Samine, whose name is
yet unknown, and who also was smit-
ten with the same woman, crept out
OF the house by the rear door and ran
through the woods in order to head
off and attack his friends successful
rival.
The man rushed into the road, seized
Bradway's horse by the bride and at
tempted to stop it, but the latter beat
him off with his whip. Then the
man opened fire ON Broadway as he
passed, and of the three shots dis
charged one took effect in his back
Broadway managed to reach home,
but in fainting condition, and Doc
tors Cooper and Cunningham, who
probed in vain for the bullet, sent
him to the Jefferson Hospital, Phila-
delphia The police are searching for
the assailants
