JOS. BENJAMIN DIED
AT LOCAL HOSPITAL
A Stranger Here and His Home 10
Said to Have Been at
Nauvoo, III.


Joseph Benjamin, comparatively a
stranger in this community, died at
local hospital this morning. Very
little is known of his past life, except
that he was brought here from his
alleged home at Nauvoo and placed In
the local hospital, very sick man,
at times delirous. He fingered until
this morning when death came to his
relief. The remains will probably be
sent back to Nauvoo Or Hancock
county, whence he came. for inter
ment.
Mr.. Benjamin was native OF Al.
SAGE, France. and came to this coun-
try many years ago. He was wild
over, his wife dying many years ago
He was about sixty years of age and
leaves no known relatives. For about
twenty-five years he had been janitor
of the large sisters school building at
Nauvoo, H., known as st. Mary's
academy and the good sisters of that
institution are looking carefully to the
preparation for his burial, which will
likely take place at Nauvoo where he
lived q quiet and respected life Tor
so many years. The cause of his
death is given as acute dimentia.

Ard, who sat in the rear seat and

to the main points, but the sister did

Jersey Cranberry Crop.

HAMMONTON. N. J., Nov. 1.-THE
cranberry crop in New Jersey is prov.
ing to be ''whopper" this year. Grow.
ers in this vicinity declare that one
million bushels of the berries will
have been picked when the harvest
now under way is completed. This
would mean an increase of 80 pei
cent over last years crop.
Whether the historic side dish OF
the Thanksgiving turkey will r
cheaper this year has not yet been
decided by growers, although indica
tons are the supply will exceed the
demand. The present quotation oil
$3.50 per barrel is 81 less than las,
years price at this time. However
the berries can be kept in cold stor
age for four months to draw a post
season profit.
