ATLANTIC COUNTY GLEANINGS. News Notes Gathered Through the Villages for the "Sentinel."

HAMMONTON.

Emma Mick, a girl about 17 years old, had a dispute with her mother about some trifle at her home at New Gretna, a few miles east of here. She

took her father's revolver from a bureau

drawer and shot herself through the left lung. Dr. Garbrandt took the ball

from her back Friday, it having passed clear through her body. She will probably die.

Owing to the low prices of strawberries many farmers are ploughing up their patches, the price not being con-

sidered sufficient to cover the cost of

picking.

MAYS' LANDING.

Twelve Russian Jew cloakmakers employed in the large clothing factory of the Mizpah Improvement Company, at the Mizpah Jewish settlement, six miles from here, went on a strike Thursday

after the firm had discharged the foreman of the factory, Harry Green, who

is a Knight of Labor, as are the twelve others. After his discharge the em-

ployees demanded his reinstatement, and, failing to secure it, twelve quit

work and made such riotous demonstrations that the factory was immediately placed under guard of officers of the law. The factory is working, and men will be immediately procured to take the place of the strikers. Trouble is feared when they arrive, as it is believed the strikers will attempt to prevent their going to work.

Wagner, of Philadelphia, who had a summer home at Sea Isle City. The fine was, however, promptly paid.
