A Potato Buyer Missing

Several farmers OF Pilesgrove. Manning
ton and Upper Penn's Neck have met
with a sad misfortune by the disappear
apce OF ii. w. Bittner, of Philadelphia,
who, after buying several thousand dol
lars worth of potatoes at Woodstown, has
failed to pay for them. The loss is esti-
mated from SIS, 600 to 500, 600.
MIR. Bittner has been buying potatoes
for a number of years and this year Of
fered a few cents a barrel above 9th ers.
The Farmers Exchange, at Woods
town, has also been mismanaged. John
B~allnger, who has had charge this year,
has resigned and Frank Davis has taken
charge.
1t is alleged that BalIinger has run the
exchange at a larger expense than neces-
sary and has sold the potatoes largely tc
a former Philadelphia buyer who with
drew his agents and the prices received
have been below those given by indepen'
dent buyers.
1t is hoped that Mr.. Bitten, who hal
disappeared from Philadelphia, will re
turn and not let such loss fall upon the
Woodworking farmers, as the prospec
so far this year is not the best.

dentIemanly sports Admired

DEAR MIR. SUMMERlLL:
AS a large number OF your readers are
baseball fang, l thought the following
facts would be of interest.
l, as well as many others, are an ad-
mirer of clear sport and as far as our
P. A. AIS are concerned, | believe they
hand out just that kind of goods, but a
halt should be called at the way the Wis
lting teams are positively insulted and
bulldosed, mark you, by ONE OF the
spectators. 1t is unbearable to anyone of
refined tastes or to those who have any
culture.
/ have pitied some of the young men,
who have acted as perfect gentlemen,
when they would step up to the plate to
bat. The roasting they got was positively
disgusting.
l think | know a joke when | see or
hear one. You need not take my word
for it, although l attend every Saturday
and know of what | speak, but you ask
anyone who attends the games and who
knows the difference between an insult
| and a good natured remark; the difference
between that tantalizing nagging and a
| joke which any decent person may give
to any player.
There is a difference between bulldozing
and what is called kidding" a person.
1t is a fact that tantalizing, nagging, in
| suits and bulldozing are permitted to &c
OH unmolested. 1t is not a Joke. They
think it is "kidding," but often it is
positive bulldoZing.
Last Saturday a general protest went
right through the grand stand and ladies
and gentlemen said the conduct OF a few
was an outrage and a disgrace to oul
town. | am glad to say that it was not
the many who were SO outlandish il
their remarks as to become personal when
man stepped up to the plate.
When players come here we shoulo
tteat them with such respect and conduct
nat when they go away they will have
a good impression and believe we are {
reople of good breeding, good manners
I'd gentlemanly losers i'll clean, hones'
sport. Such will greatly help the repu
t.tion Of oui town, our players, and oul
fans. ADMIRER OF clean sports.
