Furnished With Caps.

Mr.. Julius Dreifus has furnished each
member of the police force with a regu
lation fatigue cap from a lot recently
purchased from the government. 1t is
generally agreed that the pulcritude OF
the guardians of the peace has been
considerably enhanced by these caputi-
cal coverings. Chief Webster donned
his new head gear this morning, in
which he much resembled pictures of a
noted German admiral.

ONLY LIKES HIS WIFE
WHEN HE NEEDS MONEY.

Mrs. Emma Mink, a colored lady
who lives at Lower Hopewell, is
about to take legal proceedings
against her husband, Samuel Mink.
She was in thislcity Saturday morn
ing consulting lawyer.
Mrs. Mink claims her husband pre-.
fers other ladies' society to his law
full wife's, except when he's "broke. !"
Then he calls home for more money.
Now Mrs. Mink has grown tired Of
furnishing her good long green for
the support of another lady and posi-
lively refuses to live with her hus-
band. Despite the fact that she has
forbidden him to come home he per-
sists in doing SO and she will let the
law decide the matter.

CONVENTION CALLED
FOR BETTER ROADS,

A number of citizens met in a
GOOD Roads Convention" Monday
Chauncey F. Kilbourn, of Rosenhayn,
was made chairman of the conven-
tion and Marcus Fry, of Vineland,
secretary.
State Road Commissioner Henry I.
Budd read a lengthy paper, telling of
the advantages of having good roads.
In answer to questions he said that
a good stone road cost about S5, 900 a
mile, gravel road about SO, 600 a
mile and shell road 81, 900 mile.
He said the State would allow Cum
berland county compensation of not
over forty thousand dollars. That
this year the State had appropriated
$3.50, 900 for such use throughout the
State.
Mr.. Budd said that all that was
Necessary was the asking and the
proper arrangements to use the money
in that way. Of course the county
would have to pay sum of money
also, about twice as much as the State
appropriated.
Mr.. Budd recomn ended stone roads.

BUILDING GOING
ON HEREABOUTS.

While there is no very big building
operations going on in this city at
this time, still our contractors and
builders are all more or less engaged
on one kind of work or another.
A "Pioneer" reporter rcalled at the
workshops of number of our local
contractors last week, and in a word
here is what he found them doing:
Charles Williams, on North Laurel
street, has the contract for building
two new school houses in Deerf1eld
township. This, together with job
bing of various descriptions enables
him to keep big force of mechanics
employed.
Albert Conover at his planning mill
ON Broad street is doing all the mill
work for the new Knights of Pythias
hall at Port Norris, which is being
built by Contractor Joseph Steeiman
Mr.. Conover is also finishing up the
new dwelling of Hewitt Thompson,
on East Commerce street. He has
several jobs in view for the future.
Mr.. Joseph Steelman, in addition
to the Z. of P. Hall, at Port Norris,
is working on the plans and specifca
tions for new Baptist Church at
Dividing Greek. He has just com
pleted six new houses at Minotola.
Maier & Barnes are building an ex.
tension to the property of Mrs. Par
rine on East Commerce street, occu
pied by L. W. Swing, as a dry goods
store. They are also doing some
work at the new Criterion theatre,
and report quite brisk jobbing trade.
Harry Hankins is hard at work
upon the handsome new home OF
Prosecutor Fithian, corner North
Pearl and Washington streets, and he
expects to have it finished in about q
month. Mr.. Hankins is also building
a dwelling house on West avenue foi
Alonzo G. Moore, of Millville, and
will erect barnsat the new county
hospital during:the summer.
The biggest thing in sight here.
abouts just at this time in the build.
ing line. is the new school house fol
the Second ward in this city, the
plans and specifications of which will
be ready by August 1st, then all may
have chance of bidding on the work.
Just what the fall will reveal in the
way of new buildings cannot now be
conjectured but it is to be hoped that
our town will stike big boom.

BRIDGETON, n j. THURSDAY, JULY 81 1902
HUSBAND AND
WIFE RECONCILED.

Francis, the three -year-old son of
Mr. and Mrs. Edward Strong, will no
longer be subjected to sudden
change of home surroundings. His
father and mother, who have strug-
gled SO hard for his possession, prac-
tlcally having stolen the little fellow
from each other, have had reconcil-
latlon. 1t came about in court room
yesterday with Justice of the Peace
Samuel Hall presiding
AS told exclusively in the epic
neer" on Friday, Mr. Strong finally
succeeded in getting possession of his
son by following the plan of his wife,
simply taking it. With the child liv-
ing at her husbands home Oh Harrl.
son street, Mrs. Strong appealed to
the law. She could not arrest her
husband for kidnapping but she could
sue for support, which she did. The
case came off Friday before Just o,
Hall and Mr.. Strong, the defendant,
appeared with the little boy.
The evidence showed that Mr..
Strong had not allowed his wife
any money for many months,
but that she was compelled to work
for a living in Pennsgrove. A letter
produced proved the statement. 1t
read that if she (Mrs. Strong) could
find work and support herself she
would have to do it, because he (Mr.
Strong) didn't want her about. 1t
was written by the defendant to the
wife last year. "You will have to
pay your wife three dollars week
as sum to support her, financially
She is your legal wife, said the JUS
tice to Strong, and give bonds for
your surety
Strong said he was unable to pro-
duce bonds and was told that he must
then 60 to Jail. The.compassionate
wife relented and said she couldn t
stand to see her husband go to Jail,
although in that case she would get
possession of her boy.
Wife asked husband to have recon
ciliation. He thought long and seri-
ously. Finally consenting to blot out
the past he took his wife's hand and
promised to live with her, support
her and make the child good home.
Happy, and as man and wife, with
little Francis they left the court, to
live a new life.

RAPID GROWTH
OF RED MEN.

The steady and rapid growth of the
membership Of the Improved Order of
Red Men during the past few years
has excited the wonder of leading
members of other societies, and to
those who are not members of the or
ganization has been a mystery which
they have failed to unravel. Within
the past decade the membership in
New Jersey has increased year by
year, until with the closing of the
past six months term it has reached
membership which is surpassed by
only one other organization in the
State, founded for the same purposes,
and composed entirely of men. That
this growth has not been of the mush-
room variety, but has come to stay, is
proved by the fact that the gains,
in but very few instances, are merely
nominal, and do not come from any
one section, but come from almost
every tribe and from nearly every Sec
tion of the State.
The past six months has been a
record breaker. The reports for that
period were all in the Office of the
Great Council in Camden with but
six exceptions, and they show net
increase, after deducting deaths,
suspensions and Withdrawals, of 1907
members. The few reports to come
can make no material change in the
figures, so that when the total is
footed up the membership in the State
will stand at about 81, 200 members.
