ANOTHER FEATHER IN 'GARRY'sn car.
The criminal officers Of Salem county
are happy at the capture Of VIM Denels-
beck, who shot Luke Ingersoll on the even-
ing Of January End, at his home at Wing
Lane. The capture was made By Detec-
tive Fl. G. Garrison. in Myers store at
Asbury about O'Clock Saturday evening
last, which is the meeting pla Of the
farmers Of that neighborhood and their
farm hands. The story Of the capture is
interesting On Friday last Detective
Carney and Ex-Sheriff Vanneman, Of
Salem, came to Swedesboro and secured
the cooperation of the Gloucester county
sleuth in the hunt for Denelsbeck, They
had a theory that be was in the employ Of
some farmer in this county, Or the Western
section Of Salem Comfy. Together they
drove to Bridgeport and posted likenesses
Of Denelsbeck taken three years ago when
he was IL years old They do not faith
fully represent that individual now except
in one peculiarity-his mouth That is
large and extends almost from sear to ear
as the old saying goes. On Saturday even
ing Garry received despatch from As
bury that his man was at the store at that
moment. Garry" lost no time in getting
to Asbury store which he found flied with
men and boys. Seated on bench beside
Adam Miller prosperous farmer of that
neighborhood, was a young man who re-
sembled the Denelsbeck photograph in just
one respect he had the mouth. Garry
asked him his name and where he was
from. The reply was "Cassaday, and
that he came fromN Philadelphia, had been
working for Adam Miller for week.
s'Garry'' asked him to ride with him to
Swedesboro, and if be was not tne man he
wanted he would bring him back. The
young fellow consented, and on the way
over asked if Ingersoll was dead. The sa-
lem authorities were notified and came and
identified Denelsbeck and took him to Sa-
lem Jail, where he occupies a cell near his
alleged accomplice in crime.
1t is alleged that Denelsbeck has made q
confession in which he duplicates the
woman and acknowledges sho ting the gun.

The series of evangelical meetings under
the auspices Of the Baptist, Methodist and
PRESBYTERIAN Churches of this city begun in
the Court House on Sunday afternoon,
January Sd, have been continued according
to program heretofore announced, each
afternoon and evening Saturdays excep-
ltedl. The attendance has been good anda
the audiences have been attentive and inSl
terested in the presentation OF Gospel
truths by Rev Toy, the evangelist. Last
Sunday afternoon the evangelist addressed
a mems meeting in the Court House, and
three hundred adults of the masculine gen-
der listened attentively to the mastery
presentation Of the plan Of redemption It
was probably the largest gathering OF men
for purely religious purposes ever held IN
Woodbury., and a deep impression was
created. The singing was unusually fine
and inspiring. Sunday evening the ser
vice was held in the NJ E, Church, and
that splendid ediice was packed to the
doors, every available seat being occupied.
Rev. Moore, pastor Of the church, said tbs
was the largest gathering for purely reli-
gious purposes, ever held n Woodbury.
/ The Conversions have not peen as numer-
tous as the attendance and deep interest
seem 10 warrant but the projectors Of the
services are encouraged to believe that the
result of the first weeks labors will vet be
apparent in the salvation of many souls.
i This week. the afternoon meetings will be
held in the Central Baptist Church at 8
o'clock, and the evening meetings contin-
ued in the Court House at Z 80 o'clock.
