alassblowers, Fight at Bridgeton.

The officers of the Green Bottle Blowers
Association have started the campaign
against the non-union glass works of the
More-Jonas Company, Bridgeton, and the
George Jonas Company at Minatola. The
Executive Board have determined upon a
plan, and evidently have put it in execu-
tion. Last Monday seventeen blowers and
apprentices Of the Minatola plant started
from Bridgeton to Wallaceburg, Canada,
where they will work in Union factories
They were under the care of Vice President
Doughty. Several of the blowers of the
Moore-J Jonas plant here have left the en-
ploy Of that Company and joined the
organization. The Association expects to
take out every non-union blower from these
two plants before the present blast is out.
The manufacturers express no concern, and
say they can make new non-union blowers
as fast as they are taken from the works.
It would seem that the campaign will be a
vigorous one, and much depends upon the
success of the plan determined upon by the
officers of the Association.

One of those pleasant social events, of
which there are altogether too few, occurred
at the home of our newly elected freeholder,
Joshua S. Joyce, last evening" the occasion
being the S5th anniversary Of the birthday
of Meribah Stewart, Mrs. Joyce's mother.
The estimable mother was surrounded by
children and grandchildren, Of whom she is
justly proud, seeming the happiest one
present and said she had never tired of her
boys, to which Joshua responded "and
have no fear Of ever getting tired of the
girl"
The generous host and his genial wife
had spared nothing to make the occasion
one of those pleasant rememberances we all
look back to with pleasure.
After most enjoyable evening all bade
her good bye with the hope that they might
meet to celebrate the Seth anniversary, and
went home.

DIED. On March Goth, 1901, JONATHAN
ROBERTS, of Clarksboro.
In announcing the death of our friend
we feel that one OF natures noblemen, after 6
long life Of faithful service, has been called
from "works to rewards" We do him scant
justice when we speak of his sterling char
acter, strict integrity, straightforward and
manly bearing, high ideas of right and
and possessed with the courage Of his con-
victions.
He was born in Burlington in the year
1918 and was in his Saith year at the time
of his death.
He received liberal education and when
a young man taught school in the Winter
time and was employed on his fathers
farm and saw mill in Summer. He married
early in life and settled near the place OF
his birth where he remained until 1848,
when he moved to Virginia and joined a
party of Jerseymen who purchased about
1000 acres of land formerly owned by Geo.
Washington, he locating on the Potomac
Just below Mt. Vernon. He had acquired
knowledge of surveying, and in perform
ing this service became acquainted with
some of the first families of the State.
Though they had no patience with his alb
clifton ideas, they could but respect the
courage of the man who so fearlessly main
tanned his convictions.
After the guns of Fort Sumpter sounded
the death knell of slavery his services were
in demand by the leaders Of the northern
hosts about to march through country so
familiar to our friend. He went with
Gen. Franklin and witnessed the first battle
of Bull Run; was present at Chantilla
where the gallant Kearney was killed by a
bullet from sharpshooter' rife. In run
with some cavalry men after Col. Mosby's
Gorillas, who were robbing a baggage train,
he was thrown from his horse and wounded
for which he received a pension. The
rebels so despised the service he was giving
the Union army they offered thousand
dollars for his head. While acting as
military sheriff he went into an adjoining
county after records the rebels had carried
away.
1t 1863 he moved to Iowa where his first
wife died. After living a widower about
five years, in vision one night he thought
he saw woman still travelling alone in life,
whom he accompanied to wedding As
years before, though he had not seen nor
heard from her for 80 years. He was SO
strongly impressed by the dream that he
came back to New Jersey, found the person
seen in his vision, who gave him hearty
were soon married and spent the
last IA years his life very happily together.
He was life long Friend and held many
positions of trust in the society and was
buried from the Meeting House at Mickle-
ton on the. afternoon Of April LIST, where
loving tributes were paid to his memory.
A FRIEND.

Antitoxin for Pneumonia.

Physicians are interested in a successful
case Of treating pneumonia with antitoxin
injections reported in Baltimore. Quaran-
tine Physician Heiskell, of that city, who
contracted the disease, was treated exclu-
sively with the antitoxin and received two
injections. Within four hours he obtained
entire relief from pain, and all the symp-
toms indicated rapid recovery.
Pneumonia is one OF the most dreaded OF
the diseases that affiict mankind. 1t is now
classed as a germ disease and is commune
cable, under certain conditions II medi-
cal practice can fully establish the efficacy
of antitoxin in the treatment of this malady,
a great boon, indeed, will be conferred on
the world.
DIR. Herman C. H. Herold recently showed
what antitoxin has done in reducing the
death rate from diphtheria in our city,
making that once dreaded disease almost
harmless in its ultimate effects. A like
result in cases Of pneumonia will add
another important safeguard for human life.

Fire.

As Enoch Moore, who occupies the Henry
Watkins farm opposite the North Wood
bury station, stepped out of Good Will Fire
Company's house Thursday night about
half-past nine, he saw big blaze in the
vicinity of his home. He gave the alarm
and rushed on only to find that his barn
was on fire. His first effort was to release
his horses, but the flames had gained such
Roadway that this was impossible and his
three horses, together with three cows and
one heifer and three hogs were destroyed
The rest of his COWS were liberated. The
loss is about $500, with no insurance.

Drowned,

On the afternoon of April 3, John Allen,
John G. Herman and Geo. Kimball went
fishing at the mouth Of Woodbury. creek.
They started home about o'clock, Allen
having the oars. At the second bridge,
Kimball was about to take the oars, and in
changing seats the boat tipped, throwing
all three men into the water. All
being strong swimmers, each man looked
after his own welfare, until Allen was seen
to be in trouble, but before his companions
could reach him he sank. Allen was AZ
years of age, cigar manufacturer, great
sportsman and unmarried. The body has
not yet been recovered.
