Death of George Lewis.

George Lewis, of Cross, aged about A
years, who was known as the ''ossifed
man," died Monday night at his home,
after lingering illness. Lewis was first
attacked about seven years ago with a
hardening of the hands, and later on his
feet and legs began to assume what the
physicians pronounced an ossified condi-
ton. About year ago he began to lose
flesh, and various physicians examined the
man, without, however, being able to
discover any cause for this strange freak of
nature. He retained all of his senses and
was able to work, although with difficulty,
up to about month ago. Since that time
he had been confined to his bed.
His flesh was almost as hard as stone, and
the prick of needle, it is stated, had nc
effect whatever. His case has been con-
sidered most remarkable one by all
physicians who have made his peculiar con-
dition a study

The reader of this paper will be pleased to
learn that there is at least one hundred diseases
that science has been able to cure in all its
stages and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being constitu-
tional disease, requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving the patient
assisting nature in doing its work. The proprie-
tors have so much faith in its curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any

A Prosperous Industry

An industry established in Gloucester
City year and half ago that has as yet
received very little newspaper publicity, is
destined to become the greatest of its kind
in America, we refer to the Fries-Harley
Company, of Gloucester City, manufac-
turers of Oriental Rugs.
1t is well known that Oriental Rugs are
at present found only in the houses of the
wealthy, but the day is not far distant
when the homes of the middle classes will
be as beautifully adorned in this respect as
the homes of the millionaire.
Two years ago this company, which il
composed of Messrs. Fries & Harley and
VIM. J. Thompson took out patents and
began the manufacture of its product in 6
small way, and since the Company has at
no time been able to fill orders. The buyer
for John Wanamaker was the first to CON-
prehend the value of this new product, and
in two hours after an invoice of fifteen
hundred rugs was placed on sale, they
were sold.
Lass Monday a representative of this
paper visited the Fries-Harley Company'i
plant, and witnessed the various stages o.
manufacture.
At present the plant occupies three
story brick building, having $4,000 square
feet of floor space, employing $50 hands
and operating 48 looms. When the addi
ton, now in course of erection is completed
one hundred additional looms will be added
and the working force increased to $50, 8
large majority of whom are high salaried
mechanics
Three styles of rugs are made in sizes
ranging from 6x9 to 9x15, at prices varying
from S. to $12.5 for the Kashmir, to SIC
to $3.50 for The Bengal and SIS to $40 for
The Spartan.
TO the enterprise of Messrs. William ].
Thompson and Henry Harley is due the
credit of the location of this enterprise in
New jersey.

IuI St'5fdpeu cV'du coming uoli
Pennsylvania swept with almost irresistible
force upon the Jersey side of the river and
struck Germania Park with full strength.
The old pavilion at the park, which is not
in use now, was tumbled into mass, and
the timbers were dashed against the house
of Keeper John Revell, completely wreck
ing it, Revel escaped injury. The cloud
raised and passed out of sight. A large
number of boats were cast upon the beach,
and some of them were almost completely
demolished.
The funnel shaped cloud which descended
on Germania Park, lifted after its work of
destruction there and came to ground
north of the village. Between there and
Thorofare it leveled trees and fences, from
Thorofare it turned toward Mantua Grove
with like force, doing especial damage on
the farms of John Eastlack and Joseph
Moore. Cattle that were in well fenced
fields before the storm, were found after
scattered everywhere.

Bi ! to Increase Silver Coinage.

Washington, May 29.-The House to-
day passed the bill TO increas. the sub
sidary silver coinage The Democrats
din tc,cI ,heir light chiefly AGAINST the
provision of the bill to recon the stand
ard silver dollars into subsidiary coin as
public necessity might require. Half a
dozen roll calls were forced. The con-
ference reports on the Omnibus Public
Building and Fertilization Bills we're
adopted and the House adjourned until
Monday.
The text of the subsidiary coinage bill
is IS follows:
That the Secretary of the Treasury
is hereby authorized to coin the silver
bullion in the Treasury purchased under
the act of July IA, 1890, into such de-
nominations of subsidiary silver coin as
he may deem to meet public require
ments, and thereafter, as public necessi-
ties may demand, to recon silver dollars
into subsidiary coin; and so much of any
act as fixes a limit to the aggregate of
subsidiary silver coin outstanding and
so much of any act as directs the coin
age of any portion of the bullion pur-
chased under the act of July IA. 1890,
into standard silver dollars is hereby re-
pea led.

Fire and Narrow Escape.

Fire broke out last night about
o'clock in a small frame building, next
to the Love warehouse on Davie street
and did much damage to it.
The building is the property of Abraham
Young, butcher, and was occupied by
Sallie Milliken, washerwoman, who
lost all her property and clothing.
The loss to the building, by both fire
and water, is estimated at less than $50.
The fire is supposed to have originated
from the fire used to cook supper, though
there is nothing definite.
An accident, by which there was mar
row escape from death occurred when
the Hook and Ladder truck came dash
ing around Bloodworth street AS il
turned into Davie there was a horse and
buggy in the road and into this the
