Remarkable Rescue.

strated in the little town OF

Demurrer Overruled.

On Thursday afternoon Judge
Van Bibber overruled the demurrer
filed by Messrs. William 81. Harlan
and P. L. Hopper, counsel for Mr..
Charles T. Wilson, in the injunction
filed by Mr.. Isaac Hecht in the
Mayoralty contest, and filed an
order directing the defendants to
answer the bill.
The effect of this decision OF
Judge Van Bibber is that, in the
opinion of the Court, it has juris
diction to hear the case on its
merits, and the question of Mr..
Wilson's eligibility will now be
passed upon by the Court, instead
of the City Council.
1t is presumed that after the
usual five days. notice, the case
will come before the Court sometime
in the latter part of next week OF
the beginning of the week following
Whichever way it is decided the
matter will very probably be car
ried to the Court of Appeals, and
it will probably be late in the year,
either October or November, before
the case is definitely settled

Messrs. Reynolds, Rawlings and
Cherry were appointed committee
on inspection of premises and an
adjournment was taken for dinner.
If there were any present who
still had a theoretic leaning towards
the city, the dinner prepared by
the hostess and her daughters
demonstrated that practically the
country was the place where was
found all the joys of earth and the
fullness thereof.
The dinner was followed by a
stroll over the well kept premises
and on reassembling the committee
reported having noted among the
stock three extra fine horses, Is
good COWS and one bull, six shoats
and one brood SOW, also on the

an extra large crop of bean poles,

ESSAY ON THEORY AND PRACTICE.

a on Wednesday, June II,
with the following members and
visitors present: President, Robt.

Minutes of previous meeting,
held in April, were read and ap
proved.
The Treasurer was authorized to
pay bill for postal cards.
On the call for recent experiences
or experiments connected with the
farm, Mr.. Rawlings stated he had
planted COW peas on April 81 and
but few if any were up yet. He
noticed that the birds were eating
the pea.
Wayne Reynolds said he had
fed IA tons of cob meal to ten head
of steers, at $l7.OO, and had sold
the steers at what he figured was
o profit of 1882. Had bought 10
shoats at s cents a pound for which
he paid $77. He had fed them 60
days and sold them for $167. Some
of the members figured that he had
cleared more on his hogs than on
his steers when everything was
taken into account.
Mr.. Thompson said he was
having some repairing done to his
buildings and strongly advocated
the use of cut nails instead of wire
nails for roofing purposes, as the
latter rusted in very short time.
Mr.. Grove had drilled COW pea
May 25 and only few were now
showing.
Mr.. McVey said he had tried
treating seed corn with oil of lemon
and wood alcohol as preventative
against louise and would report re.
suit later. Had used nitrate OF
soda on some of his grass, 100 lbs.
to the acre at cost of $3, mixed
with raw bone to drill. Had put
it on May Is and the grass was now
one third higher than that not
treated.
Elwood Balderston said he had
used six bushels of cowpea on nine
acres and had mixed the seed with
Canada pea as the cOwpea order for
seed was short. Did not favor the
Canada pea as it did not possess
the fertilizing quality of the cow
pea.
Mr.. Wilson said he had planted
some lima beans and after waiting
three weeks for them to come up
had planted some more. A month
after the first lot had been planted
they commenced to snow through
the ground.
Mr.. Cameron asked if it was best
to paint water tank or leave it
implanted. If painted at all, he
was advised to paint on the inside
only.
The subject of compressed air
water tanks was brought up and
discussed at some length.
When the host was called upon
for his essay, he responded by
stating he had asked a fellow mem
Der, A. B. McVey, to furnish the
essay for the meeting and Mr..
McVey responded as follows

ton on Saturday By shooting himself
through the heart, was secretly married
last Wednesday to Miss Eslelle NJ. Cal
IshaD, a nurse 81 the Boston City Hos
pilal, where DR.. Day was assistant to
The chief surgeon. On Friday DR.. Day
read in Boston newspaper an account
Of his disappearance and that OF Miss
Call.han aud the intimatiOn that they
had eloped.
Fearing that the hospital authorities
would summarily dismiss the nurse, the
physician left his bride.that night and
went to Boston to learn if the marriage
had been discovered. Saturday afternoon,
few hours before DR.. Days body was
found, the bride received telegram from
him informing her that their elOpement
was known aud telling her to imme-
distely telegraph her resignation to Miss
Straub, the supervising nurse of the hos
pitsl. Mrs. Day sent the message to the
hospital.
Both the bride and Mrs. Albert Day,
the physicians mother, live in Brooklyn.
DR.. Day was 20 years old, the same age

heat and with the aid of apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, ex-
tract from our most valuable native me-
diclnal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use Of alcohol,
so generally employed. So the now world
famed "Golden Medical Discovery" for
the cure of weak stomach, indigestion, or

MURDERED AND ROBBED.

Absalom Magee, an aged and weslthy
farmer of Weymouth, few miles from
Atlantic City, was beaten to death by
thugs and robbed of his wallet, sup
posed to have contained several thou
sand dollars, at Montpelier avenue and
the Thofoughfsre, within few hundred
yards of the exclusive Chelsea Cottage
district, Saturday night. His body as
found foaling ia the Ihoroughfsre, back
of Atlantic City Yesterday morning, by
passing yschtmsn. The head was
crushed IN and the pockets OF the old
nau's clothes had been riAed OF their
contents.
Msgee, who WAS 60 years old, made
asDug fortune as a farmer in the neigh
borhood of Weymouth, and owned sew
ersl valuable plantations. Lstely he
decided to retire, and sold part Of his
real estate for $4,000. He arrived at
Atlantic City Saturday afternoon with q
considerable amount of the money in
his possession, and is believed TO have
had over Sc, 900 in roll in his trousers
pocket when be left the home of Came
ron Freas, his nephew, where he had
been visiting,
Fress warned the old man of the
danger of carrying such large amount
Of ready cash IN his clothes, aud asked
him to leave most of it at home, but the
old farmer, who was strong and sturdy,
laughed at the fears OF his relative.
The police theory of the case is that
Msgee became friendly with the thugs
10 downtown saloons and, under the
influence of drink, showed his roll Of
money. He was then probably lured TO
the lonesome spot and clubbed to death,
the body being thrown into the water as
soon as the murderers had ri6ed his
pOckete.
