To-night's meeting of the Bridgeton Board of Health will be the first since majority of thjmembers were asked, at the citizens' meeting, to resign. It is also the annual meeting, when or ganization is effected for the ensuing year.

Unusual interest, therefore, attaches to it. The News issued five editions yester day, with the latest dispatches upon the Cuban question up to the hour of going to press. Our 0 0 clock -bxtra told of the delay of the President's message, for the safety of the lives of Americans in Cuba, and of the rumors of peace at Madrid, both of which subjects were the chief Ones in this morn ing's Philadelphia papers. Bead the News and keep up with the times. The old shed around the Grosscup building, which has been there ever since the building was erected, is being torn down, to the gratification of most persons, its removal ana tne repainting of the building will greatly enhance both the value and appearance of the corner.

Wooden sheds are out of date and have no place in a progressive city. It would be well if the few re maining ones on Commerce and Laurel streets were removed and replaced by neat canvas awnings. A backward glance is often inter- stine.

His Death at Los Angeles-Born in Cumberland County, N. J. From the Santa Barbara, "Daily News" of March 26, forwarded to the News by Percival Nichols, is taken the following account of the death and honored career of 'Major Joel A. Fith- ian, "a native of this county. The whole city was chocked this morning at I be news that Joel A.Fith lan naa aiea almost witnout warning at the Hotel Van Nuyi, Los Angeles, last evening, He had been unwell for some time with what was supposed to be la grippe but it was hoped the suf ferer would soon be better as no alarm-ia symptoms were noted.

We had expecting Mr. and Mrs Fithian to arrive here at almost any time, as preparations had been made for their reception. Mr. Fithian's death is a downright misfortune to this city where his enterprise and energy are manifeet by his expensive investments It was well on .1 1 a ti .1 i a aerscooa mat tne naa an abiding faith in i the future of Santa Barbara and contemplated the expenditure cf great sums in buildings and improvements. It was his intention to erect an opera house on Ortega street that would be 'second to none on the coast.

It is possible that the plans he made were made in such a way that they will be carried out by his sons the same as if he was alive. We hope it is so. SKETCH OF AN HOKORABLE LIKE. Joel A. FitMan was born in Cumberland New Jersey, April 3d, 1839.

At the breaking out of the war, he entered in the army as major of the 24th Regiment, of New Jersey After a few months' service with his regiment he was detailed as an officer on General French's Btaff, in wMch capacity he served until Jaly, 1864, when he was appointed pay-mas er in the U. S. Army and remained in tMs capacity until the close of the war, when he resigned. Soon after the war he went to Richmond, Virgima, where he helped to organize the principal bank of Rick, mond, and was chosen first vice-president, which position he held for a number pf years, after which he removed to New York and engaged in business until 1876. Since that time and up to the time he came to Santa Barbara he had been engaged in dealing with the American Railway System, with offices in New York, London and Paris.

It was not stated clearly why he want el atrial, bat it understood it was because of something said by those in the Conference who were against him for the Presiding Dr. Graw said to a reporter that for the good of all he did not care to discuss them, and the same answer was made by one pf the miniatere.who vigorously opposed him, each adding that the fight was over and that it was best that nothing should be said. The main reason used against Dr. Graw was that he had already been a Presiding Elder for eighteen years and it was regarded by his opponents that he had held the job. long 'There was perfect silence while the Bishop read the appointments, until Dr.

Graw's name was announced, when instantly a murmur, indistinguishable as to whether or not it was of approval, arose from his brethren. After adjournment, Dr. Graw, in being interviewed, called attention to the large number who had congratulated him on his new position. Seven 1 other ministers wanted the place, and it came near going to Dr. Hewitt, a former pastor of the First Church.

"Dr. Graw's successor, at Trenton, is Dr. Hunsberger, of Milwaukee, who has just been transferred into the Con. ference. He has been the pastor of the biggest church in his Conference and has made quite a reputation for the large number of marriages he has per.

formed. In one year he united 1,203 couples." 80TJTH JERSEY EDITORS. Opinions for Which the "News" is Not Responsible.

Commerce Street. AN OLD BIVBB PILOT. Once Well-Known, He Passes Away at Alio way. There died at Alio way on Sunday evening last a former well-known and long-time resident of of Slem county, who for the last few yetrs, because of increasing years and the consequent physical infirmities attendant merer upon, had quite dropped cut of syr Jp V' and been well nigh forgotten reference ia to John Lord, or Lloyd, generally known, the old river pilot so long employed on the steamers plying between Salem and Philadelphia. Years ago when this was wholly, or nearly, the one way of travel between the two points spoken of, Lord was, known to most 'residents of Salem county and of the counties adjoining, no ably to those of Cumberland and Cape May county, many of whom reached Philadelphia by way of Salem.

He 3 was also widely known all along the river towns and in he practically had his residence for long years, going up from Salem ia the morning and remaining at the former place during a large part of the day. Perhaps no one was better acquainted with the navigation between Salem and Philadehia than Mr. Lord. He was pilot on the old stealers Clifton, Clyde, Key bold and Antelop9, and navigated his first boat on the Delaware when obout 25 years of age. He stood at the wheel and answered to the helm (or rather the helm answered to bim)under the captaincy of such men as Btlder-back, Tatem, Boone, Robeson and others.

Mr. Lord was born in the little village of Pennsgrove, in Salem county, along the Delaware River, in the year 1818, and bo started life in plain view of the broad water and early cultivated a eachant for a river life. He was twio married; at first to a Miss Merrick, of Salem, and the second time to Matilda Johnson, grand-daughter of Isaac Johnson, many years since a sheriff of Salem county. A daughter of his first wife married Mr. Emory Townseud, also a pilot, who was lost in the cyclone that struck the steamer Major Reybold when en route for Salem, a number of years sinSe.

Mr. Lord was, for most of his life, a resident of Salem, only removing to Alloway lately, and, as the sequel proved, to die. The interment take 3 place to-morrow, (Thursday) at Salem. FRIENDSHIP. At the Friendship M.
