Everything Went Down With a
Tremendous Rush.
"A VIOLENT RELAPSE.

New Jersey Central Reading
Deal Started It.
A VIOLENT RELAPSE.

New York. ian THE stock market
made another demonstration this morn
and overcame in less than an hour the.
heaviest and most reckless unloading TO
realize profits which it has yet had to
encounter. Spectators who had been
lucky enough to get into the market be-
fore the phenomenal rise of the latter
part Of last week were eager sellers to
take profits. The eagernesS OF this class
to seize the occasion was the cause of
sudden and violent relapses in prices in
nearly all the stocks which have had the
most volatile rise.
The consequence of the speculative
unloading was successive drops OF hair
to a point in prices and resulting eX-
IRENE decline ran up to five points ZEN
nessee coal lost that amount and New
Jersey Central after an opening rise OF
a point dropped FIVE on two successive
sales Northern Pacific was forced rs
below Saturday and Pennsylvania two
points. The reaction reached 2 to ~ IN
Reading Rock Island, Atchison pre-
ferred St Paul, Erie first preferred and
Delaware & Hudson, X in Reading first
preferred and second preferred and a
point or over in Baltimore < Ohio ana
a large number of active stocks.
There We're plenty of opening ad-
vances ranging from 1 to points for
important stocks including Baltimore &
Ohio, the Tobaccos. Erie, Texas Pacifcs
Ontario and Western and tin plate,
while Reading common was rushed up
nearly three points and Delaware g
Hudson Az, but the rush to sell com
pletely overbore the market and the
whole list yielded.
The violent hurry to unload stocks
and the feverish and erratic fuctua-
lions in the market developed a nervous
sentiment and doubts whether the good
news had not been sufficiently dis
counted The movement of stocks on
Saturday was evidently on foreknowl-
edge of the New Jersey Central-Read-
ing dear' notwithstanding that the an
nouncement Of the transaction was not
published until within a few minutes of
the close.

The County Assessors.

The Assessors of the various townships oil
the county met in Woodbury. two weeks
ago and compiled the abstract Of county
ratables for the year, which interesting
document will be found in tabular form IN
another column.
AS compared with the abstract of last
year, the acreage is LII less than last
year, while the net valuation is 500, 79s
greater
The number of polls show an increase Of
62 over last year, Notwithstanding the fact
that the election officers found 1928 voters
entitled to registry last Fall, showing that
the patriots who register the voters find
1444 more voting polls than the patriot
assessors find tax-paying POLLS" but the
last-named may be clear of censure from
the fact that the ''polls'' had not arrived
from the South when their last canvass was
made
The present table gives some interesting
facts net shown heretofore, to-wit, the
exemptions from taxation, and the local
tax rates.
1t will be interesting to know that the
tax exemptions amount to $795, 900.
East Greenwich township has the lowest
tax rate, while Wenonah has the highest.
While Woodbury's assessor finds only
$40 polls to assess, Woodbury's election
officers find 1142 to vote, difference of
293. Strange, isn't it?
We hope taxpayers will engraft these facts
on the tablets of their memories, and if pos
sible aid the assessors in securing COM
plete list of polls for taxation or purging
the registry list of polls that have only a
voting existence.
The county tax rate will be &c cents on
the 500 valuation an increase of % cents
over 1891.

A Bunch of Continental Currency.

Jediah Dubois of Upper Pittsgroye
township, Salem county, has curiosity in
an old leather wallet well filled with Con-
tinental currency, one OF the relics of his
fathers estate.
There are thirteen of these Continental
notes, varying in amount from six pence to
thirty dollars, some of which were issued
according to resolves of the Assembly Of
Pennsylvania, of the 9Th day Of April in
the 18th year of the reign of His Majesty,
George the Third, dated the Sd day of
April, A. D., 1772" The last note of the
George the Third series was issued in the
18th year of His Majesty's reign, April 25,
1776.
A Continental note ''entitles the bearer
to receive 80 Spanish milled dollars or the
value thereof in gold or silver, according
to resolution passed by Congress at
Philadelphia, Sept. 26, 1778.
The earliest note is dated 1772, and the
latest, 1885.
The notes are printed by Hall & Sellars,
of Philadelphia.
There are other interesting papers in this
old wallet, among them so cent note
issued by "The Camden & Woodbury. Rail
Road Co., dated Oct. IA, 1887, and a
certificate of deposit for So issued by 'The
President, Directors & Company of the
State Board at Trenton, to Solomon Du-
Bots, dated May %, 1923, signed Stacy A.

The Prudential.

| During the severe hot weather at the be-
ginning of July, when the thermometer
was soaring in the neighborhood of 100
degrees, the clerks in the home Offices of
the big life insurance companies were kept
busy recording and paying death claims,
which were coming into the offices at a
great rate. This was especially true of the
companies which conduct an industrial, or
week. y-payment, business, many of the
policy -holders being of the poorer or mid
die class.
During the first nine days in July The
| Prudential Insurance Company of America
alone paid nearly 800 death claims, where
the policy-holders had died from sunstroke,
although the average of that Company for
any whole year since 1891, was only 1902
cases.
On one single day, July 9th, The Pru-
Dental also paid 200 more Industrial claims
than it ever paid before on any one day,
the total being GAG claims and the amount
of money paid out running up to nearly
S60, 000.
The majority of these deaths were due to
the intense heat, or from disorders brought
on, OF severely aggravated, by the hot
weather. In the larger cities about one
half of the policies paid on the above men
toned date were cases Of heat victims. For
example, in New York City SO claims were
paid on heat cases out of total of II cases;
in Brooklyn there were so heat victims out
of IS death claims paid; while in Philadel-
phia A out of IA claims were paid, on
people who had died from the heat
In seven large cities, out of 305 claims
paid, 153 were on heat victims. These are
insurance facts worthy for people to remem-
Der and to the man or woman who would
procrastinate, the answer is plain: If you're
healthy now insure now
