LITTLE BELL IS
NOW SHIPPING ORE
Vast Tonnage Removed From
Mine by Development to Be
Marketed.
ERA OF SHIPPING
STARTED In EARNEST
Management Will Continue to
Send Out Product From
Now On.

AS u response to, If not one OF the
strongest arguments for. the recent ac-
tiYity In the stock of the Little Bell Min
ing company In local circles, comes the
intelligence that the era of production of
this promising Park City mine has actu-
ally begun. For many months the man.
agement has been pushing a systematic
campaign of development work. encoun-
tering large and valuable orc bodies,
yet extracting no more ore than was alb
solutely necessary under the circum-
stances
Begins to Move the Ore.
In spite OF the religious system of
avoiding the mining OF the ore, the man
agcment has accumulated in the various
bins on the property a tonnage of ore
estimated to contain no less than 1000
tons, and Tor the past day or two this
reserve has been touched for the purpose
ready for the cars and will be moved
from the property by Tuesday at the
latest.
Begins to Mine the Ore.
While IT is the intention OF the COM
pany 10 rid the property OF this ton
mage OF extracted ore. the campaign of
shipping is not to be limited to that cX-
tent. Thirty tons q day Will be the av-
erage output for some time but with
the Inauguration of real mining this ton
mage Will undoubtedly be increased as
far as possible. 1t was learned Saturday
that the Little Bell would be mined for
the orc now blocked out. and from all In
dications the chances are more than even
that with greater depth than that now
attained the mine viii bud into a still
greater producer than present showinGs
indicate.

FARMER HANGED
HIMSELF in BARN.

Josias Fithian, an elderly farmer,
residing or Captain Miller's farm on
the Baoon's Neck road, below Green
wich, committed suicide Wednesday ty
hanging himself in the barn, while,
as supposed, insane.
Mr., Fithian was between 65 and 70
years old. and was always of happy;
Joviai nature. Recently his wife died
and shortly following this, daughter
went insane and is now in the Hos
pital for the Insane here.
1t is thought these troubles weighed
on his mind and unbalanced him. He
has been acting rather queerly, so
much so that his household family
feared he might commit some act of
violence. either to himself or others,
and he has been kept somewhat under
notice. and his hired man slept with
him at night as a protection.
A telephone message came to Coro-
ner Hitchner about nine O'Clock and
he Immediately left for the scene.
Captain Miller's wife is the sui
cide's sister. Besides the daughter
in the hospital, he has other children,
SON being engaged in the oyster
business at Greenwich Piers.
1t is not likely there Will be an in i.

Mount Holly, N. j.. Nov. 17.-When

that under the new law it would be
necessary to audit the accounts of

that Surrogate Lippincott, who has

Millviile Boys May Call Strike.


Millville, Nov. 18-While not ad-
mitting that the situation is alarming,
nevertheless managers of glass plants
in this city are greatly exercised to-
night over the report that the tending
boys in the factories will this week
ask for raise in wages, and the re-
fusal of their request will result in a
strike and tie-up of the glass indus
try here. Millville is strictly glass
manufacturing town, three-quarters IF
the people being employed in this
trade, and any disaster to the glass
works would seriously cripple the
city.
This move of the boys for more
money originated from the example
set by the boys in Clayton, who Sc
cured raise IN wages of tenEcents per
day by striking. The plant at Will
Jamestown was handicapped yesterday
by thesDoys striking and marching six
miles to Clayton. were they could Sc.
cure more money.
Millville boys are paid as high
wages as any place in South Jersey,.
yet their move is hard to combat ow
ing to their being in such demand. Tt
is rumored tonight that meeting of
the boysl will be help Tuesday and
plans formulated for demanding an
increase in wages then.

Beginning of the Third Yea,

County Clerk Samuel M. Sheldon
has completed two years of his official
term, this week starting on the third.
Time flies. The County CLERK has
made most satisfactory officer, and
his administration is perhaps the best
ever given of the office Che office is
certainly better equipped than ever
before. and many details are carefully
ooked after that heretofore were
wholly neglected. Several new
schemes have been added that make
the office more important and give
greater advantages TO the public. AL
ways courteous and clever Mr.. Shell.
don has the respect and confidence of
the entire community. Not the least
important thing that Mr.. Sheldon has
done isito make Robert S. Schiller his
Deputy. It is not extravagant to
say that there is no Office in the state
conducted better than the Cumberland
Clerk office.

DISTRICT MEETING
OF THE AGENTS.

II There was district meeting of the
#Prudential Insurance Assistant Supere
$intendents and agents of the Bridge
#ton district Friday afternoon in the
&rooms OF Superintendent u. A. NitsAe
&in the Criterion building.
The object of the meeting was to
&prepare for great competitive rally
knext week in ordinary insurance.
There were over forty agents and
assistant superintendents present-the
main agents room being crowded.
The effort is to be competitive; the
state has been divided into two divi-
sions, Camden and Rridgeton districts
forming one division and Trenton an
Newark districts forming the other
division.
The meeting was presided over by
Superintendent Nitshe. vino outlined
the plan OF the effort.
Rousing addresses were made which
enthused the men to feeling of ener
getic spirit, and, from the manifesto
tions shown, there will be something
doing by the agents next week.
P. A. Roth, of the Camden district,
was made captain of the 'boys'' of
the Camden and Bridgeton division,
and Ed. jackson of the other division.
Old Peter Eigenhoff, of the Newark
main office, was introduced by Mr..
Nitshe as the first speaker and made a
stirring address; he was followed by
Supt. Riley of Newark, who also
made most excellent address. but
the address of the afternoon was that
of Mr.. Roth. of Camden, who gave
the boys good material for use in
their arguments while making their
hustling canvass next week.
He gave them three valuable reasons
for extra work, in one of which he
strongly advocated life insurance as
a preventive of poverty, crime and
suffering, examples and incidents
illustrating, in his own experiences
and observations, the force of his ar
j iguments.
The reasons he gave for this extra
effort no doubt, had much weight.
Before the adjournment pledges were
made as to what amount of insurance
each would endeavor to get during
the week.

E. Ewing, the late Democratic candi-
date for Senator, for recount OF all
the ballots cast in Cape May county,

elected Senator over Ewing by $50
plurality. Ewing alleges that there
are upwards of 500 marked ballots
counted for Hand which should not
have been counted at ALL

cannot possibly win on a recount.
Judge Trenchard set November 80 as

MAINTAINING A
VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN.

No matter what the general notion
of an individual concerning the pro.
priety OF building state and county
road in this county may be, it must be
conceded that the people of Lands
township are vigorous Community,
and believing that the old Malaga
road should be a state and county
road, vigorous chmpaign for the de-
sired end is being maintained.
The Lands township people have
had this project before the, Board of
Freeholders for several years, and
they declare that they will again ap.
pear and urge the matter.
At the last meeting of the Board
there were seven votes favorable to
the project. Had Capt. Walter Turner
of Lands, been present, the vote
would have been eight, just three less
than a majority of the Board.
Lands will be back again TO the
Board and again present the demand
for the road In the last attempt AS
semblyman Louis Fl. Miller, repre-
senting the Lands people, made
very specious plea. Among the other
promises made, was that if the county
would join with the state and erect
the road, the township would agree to
keep the road in repair.
The question has been raised by
some tax payers as to the possibility
of such an agreement being made. It
is we'll known that State Road Com
missioner Hutchinson is very jealous
of the states right in the building of
these roads. The law provides that
when state aid is given county for
road building, the county must agree
to keep the road in repair, and the
Commissioner sees that it is done.
The question is asked it it would be
possible for the county to escape its
responsibility to the state and shift to
the willing township? There are
many who do not think the state
would permit this.
State and county road building is
admitted to be an expensive PROPOSE
tion: The building is expensive and
the maintenance is more so. When
state and county roads are built, it
means that the county must there.
after care for that road, leaving the
township entirely free from any fur
ther burden concerning it. The city
of Bridgeton and the city of MillviIle
must build and maintain their own
roadways. They can get neither state
or county aid. and when townships
have county roads, these two cities
must pay the greater part of the care
of it, as these municipalities pay
nearly half of the county taxes
There is provision in the law
where township can get state aid
and together with the state build
road within it's limits. There are
many people here who think that Lam
dis township should take advantage
III W oUVdth otatO
money for the Malaga road and relieve
the county of it. Assemblyman Mil
Ter said the other day that the reason
the township did not want to do
that was that it would interfere with
a general state road scheme all over
the county. But the county has not
planned any general road building
scheme and cannot unless it bankrupts
itself. It should be further borne in
mind that under the Hillery tax rate
law, next year the rate Of taxes must
be reduced. 1t cannot be raised, and
must eventually come down to $1.75
per 800. Such tax rate will not
permit much added burden at this
time, of state and county road build.
