Wanted, A Monument to Tea Burners


Professor w. w. Shepard, Of Shiloh,
| appeared before the Cumberland County
Board of Chosen Freeholders last week
and spoke in favor of the erection of a
monument commemorative the tea
burning at Greenwich, an event which
occurred during the revolutionary war.
The tea was burned on the Cohansey riv-
er, near the town of Greenwich, q few
miles south Of Bridgeton.
This was the only historic act Of the
Revolution that occurred in Cumberland
4 County. and is worthy of commemoration
a the tea dumping in Boston.
In the history Of Cumberland county,
Lucius @. C. Elmer writes as follows:
"Those familiar with the history Of the
English colonies in North America will
remember that it was the persistence Of
the British government in taxing the
people, without allowing them to be
represented in Parliament, that brought
on the Revolution and fastened their in
dependence. In 1878 all these taxes
were repealed but the duty on tea, which
our forefathers not only resolved not to
use, but which they would not suffer to
be landed and offered for sale.
IA brig called the Greyhound, bound
to Philadelphia, with q cargo of tea, the
( captain Of which was afraid to proceed to
his place Of destination, in the summer
of 1774 came into the Cohansey, landed
his tea and had it storedin the cellar of q
house standing in front of the then open
market square. This house is not nov
standing and the market square has been
enclosed as private property.
Initiating the example Of the Boston
ians, a company Of near forty men was
organized, with the concurrence of the
committee Of safety Of the county, of
which Jonathan Elmer, the royal sheriff,
was an active member, who disguised
themselves as Indians, and on the night
of November %, 1774, broke into the
storehouse, took out the boxes of tea and
burned them in a neighboring field"
The owners of the tea commenced &C.
tions Of trespass, but no trial ever took
place. Ebenezer Elmer, who wa n of
the Indians, entered in his journal under
date Of Thursday, May 25, 1775, "Came
up to Bridge (from his nephew, Daniel
Elmer's, who lived at Cedarville) just be-
fore court, being Supreme Court. Judge
Smith gave very large charge to the
grand jury concerning the times, and the
burning Of the tea the fall before, but the
jury came in without doing anything and
the court broke up" Under the date of
September Z, he entered, Expected as
Sheriff Bowen had got a jury Of Tories
We should be indicted for burning the
tea, but they could not make it out"

Carter Harrison says that the police
men of Chicago when detailed to keep
order in great crowds on public occasions
always keep their clubs in their belts
and that order is a great deal easier
maintained than whey they were in the
habit of swinging them in front of the
people. There is a great principle under
lying that. The people have rarely be-
trayed a trust reposed in them.

Little is now heard of the post office
stealing at Washington, because the in

directed that all reports be made public
through him and he does not let any out.
The object is to smother the wrong do
ings and let the interest created by news-
paper reports die out.

says, however, in the same breath:
''Your materialism is against YOU.
Too many of your religions seek the
support of the spirit to enrich the
body, rather than the body to enrich
the spirit"
This last summer in England has
proved Annie Besant to be more than
ever the friend of the London poor.
These same poor always have and, |
believe, always will, love her. Her
charity has been too practical, her
sympathy too frequently put to the
test by the needy, to permit of their
doubling her. A matter of minor
Importance to hungry man or rag
ged beggar girl is the changing relig-
ious beliefs of the woman who be-
friends him or her. No one denies
that Mrs. Besant has tried nearly
every religion from strict evangelical
doctrines to her present liberal faith
in theosophy. No one forgets her
brilliant defense in court against the
slanderer which sought to rob her of
her good name. Her avowed dislike
of her husband, her separation from
him and his priesthood in the Church
of England, are details in her life his
tory long since written. Her children
are grown and married, but both of
them now yield their mother the low
atty and affection which in youth they
were forbidden to show her.
Sir Walter Besant cordially disliked
his sister-in-law and changed the pro-
nunciation of his name that he might
not be called by hers. But she has
moved on in her chosen path, SOLITARY
and scorned much of the way, but
keeping always as her guiding star an
abiding trust in the necessity of being
true to herself Perhaps Mrs. Besant
will live to see her complete vindica-
tion and the cordial recognition of the
work she has sincerely attempted to
do. Those of us who have seen her
this summer, are agreed, as have said
above, that the end of Annie Besant
is not yet.-From London Letter.

place to the post where you begin to
weave. Then unroll and stretch the
bottom wires first, the full length of
the fence if straight, and staple them
in place to the other end, or corner

them slip. Draw them straight and
extend them beyond the last end post

For an anchor, I loop the wires
around the ends of round stick, two

or anything else that may be handy,
on the wires in front of the stick.
Fix each pair of wires to a separate
anchor.
To weave in the pickets, one man
turns the short planks in a circular
direction one-half turn, to spread
the wires and hold them while an
other puts in and drives the pickets
in place. A gauge is necessary to
keep the pickets even. A little prac-
tice will enable one to keep the pick
cts plumb and make as good and a

patent fence machines will make

from Norway and Sweden. The fish
ermen go out from the coast with
their fleets of small boats and cast
the odorous bait into the sea in great
quantities, which generally attracts
the sardines in shoals. But this year
the price of the bait was unusually
high, and it was used at the outset in
a niggardly fashion. Some claim that
as consequence the sardines left
these waters for better feeding
grounds and did not return. On the
other hand, it is said that for some
unaccountable reason, virtually no
sardines of packing size have APP
peared off the French coast since
last spring. Fishermen's prices for
the sardines are ordinarily from $3.50
to. $2.7O per 1000. This year, they
have received from 1919 to $9.65 per
1000. There was failure of the
catch some three or four years ago,
but nothing like so pronounced as
this years. The result at present has
been to considerably embarrass the
sardine exporters of both Nantes and
Bordeaux.
There exists an almost worldwide
demand for French sardines, and this
year it has been, if anything, strong
er than usual; but in view of the in
significant catch (only ten per cent.
of the ayerage) a very small per-
centage of orders can be executed.
This has resulted in great profit to
the principal competitors of the
French-the packers and exporters of
Spain and Portugal.
1t is believed that the whole catch
along the French coast this year will
not amount to more than 10000 or
100000 cases.

French sardine industry may be had

WINTER ON THE FARM.
Pa rt of 1t should BE Devotedto Study
and the Rest to the Finishing
of Job Work.

If the farmer intends to get to the
fl ont, now would be good time to
commence to study. Nights are get
ting long, and the farm work will not
be in such a rush during the winter
months. The farmer who does not
improve has no excuse, as good farm
literature can be had at a very low
price. A few dollars invested in a
half dozen good agricultural books,
and three or four subscriptions to good
papers, and you are prepared to
start your family reading club. If one
of your boys or girls shows liking
for poultry or any branch of farming,
get a small library and start them
in business; it will be money Well in
vested. Now is a good time to do
that job of work on your house, or
barn, which you have been neglecting
for so long. All improvements done
about the place will more than pay for
| themselves in better looks of the
place and conveniences. You should
enlarge your barn so as to be able to
take care of plenty of hay and forage,
for that is the only way to keep up the
fertility of the soil, and each farmer
should consider his farm as his bank
account, and his crop after expense
Is paid, his per cent. But most farm
ers act as though they thought they
were miners and got their living by
digging. They are not scientific; they
don't keep up with the times. They
do a thing just so because father did
it that way. But that will never do;
civilization is on the forward march,
and if you, brother farmer, do not keep
up with the procession you will be left
in the rut.-Enos c. Pitman, in Agri-

MRS. ANNIE BESANT.
English Prophecies of Theosophy
Has Not Yet Lost Her Hold on
Her London Followers.

The end of Annie Besant is not vet.
This seems to be the feeling which has
been created in England, where the
most famous of living theosophists
mas been making three months visit.
MIS-. Besant left England a few days
ago, on her way to India, where mat
ters connected with the school for
natives which she founded at Benares
several years ago claim her attention.
She is going by way of the continent
ana Will hold theosophical meetings in
Germany, Switzerland and Italy
evidently sailing from a southern
port. Mrs. Besant will return to Eng
land in June and pursue her calling as
a latter day Blavatsky in the vicinity
of London.
a few years ago it was prophesied
fully that Annie Besant was about to
be ignored by the world at large and
England in particular. But this proph-
ecy has not been fulfilled. In fact,
the little part of the universe repre-
sented by this island, at least, thinks
more kindly of Mrs. Besant than it
eVeS did before. She seems to have
IVed down much of the antagonism
her earlier life aroused and to have
inspired kndlier feeling among her
countrymen than they were wont to
show her. While in England Mrs.
Besant held many lectures and it was
only a few days before her departure
that she spoke to :. great audience in
London.
She retains her marvellous charm
and while she does so she will not
cease to affect multitudes visibly;
while she pursues her present discreet
and intelligent educational methods
in India she will not cease to win the
appreciation of a large portion of the
English people.
1t is now Mrs. Besant's annual pro-
gramme to spend nine months of the
year in India and the other three in
England Strengthening the theosophi-
cal society with the learning she
brings fresh from the birthplace of
theosophy. Mrs. Besant is the power
of her cult in England, to-day, say
what else people may of her. She it
is who arranged for the various
courses of theosophical lectures which
leading English theosophists are this
winter delivering in America. In fact,
every missionary influence the society
is eNerting emanated primarily from
her.
Mrs. Besant thinks theosophy ought
to be assimilated rapidly by the Amer
leans, because she considers Ameri-
