Remembering that even the worm will turn if
pressed too hard the Princeton Undergraduate
has stopped to think a moment before asking
the trustees of the college to discipline the
Faculty. This wise act is in part due to the
fact that the chief witness against the profess
sors, on the charge of spying on the students,
has backed down completely and admits that
he was wrong. So the Faculty may not be
obliged to 20 after all.

The opening of the German Parliament yes
terday was marked by nothing unusual. Ii
was pointed out in the speech from the throne
that the members would have to give much
time to internal affairs, and they were assured
that the foreign relations of the Empire were
in "a highly satisfactory condition" Prince
Bismarck evidently means to keep on with his
legislation in behalf of workmen, hoping there
by to disarm the Socialistic agitatOrs. No un-
pleasant inquiries were made by the friends of
Herr Lasker about the Chancellor's interfer-
ence with the delivery Of the Reichstag's foreign
mail.

The plan adopted by the Chamber OF Com
MERGE as a remedy for the evils OF unlimited
silver coinage may not be considered by some
as the wisest that could be suggested Du'
great importance must be attached To II rs
protest of the leading mercantile organization
of the country against the present state ot
affair.", The Chamber thinks the coinage OF
s,pcriluous dollars should be stopped for two
years, and that no more Treasury bills OF
smaller denomination than 50 should be issued.
In this way, it is believed, silver coins would
take the place of the present small bills. IN
view of the tons of silver in the Treasury vaults
a suspension of coinage for two years is GER
tainly not an unreasonable request.
Mr. MorisOn's Tariff bill has reached maj

one amendment has been adopted-that coai

as mere declaration of party principles Tins
latter hypothesis is the only one that explains
satisfactorily the way in which Mr.. Morrison

Powerful opposition was developed yesterday
in the Legislature against the bill to protect the
Adirondack forests from further destruction.
The lumbermen are well organized, and the
Assembly seemed to be in complete subsection
to them. All the excellent suggestions of the
Chamber of Commerce Committee in regard to
this matter were contemptuOusly thrown aside.
We hardly expected that an entirely salts
factory law would be passed; but there was
reason to hope that a compromise bill might be
agreed upon which would do great good. In
fuence and sharp practice, however, thus FAR
have been too much f0I the men who have the
welfare of the state at heart, and unless the
friends Of the forests make great effort next

merce Of river and canal. That would be Il
public calamity.

The Democrats are determined, apparently,
That the Republicans shall not have all the
credit which follows the investigation and
correction of abuses. Governor Cleveland sent
a message to tho Assembly yesterday, saying
that he believed fraud had been practised upon
the State in connection with repairs upon
arsenals and armorieS; he advised another com
mittee of investigation, which was Immediately
appointed, of course. 1t does not appear from

There seems to be implied censure in some
of the comments upon Congressman Wise's refusal
to fight duel with journalist who has attacked
him. This ought not to be. If Mr. Wise has
fought duels before it is all the more creditabe to
him that he should acknowledge the folly and bar
barty of the CODE and that he should declare his
intention to avoid such encounters henceforth.
Every prominent Southerner who takes such a po-
sition ought TO be encouraged to maintain it, for 1t
is only by the force of example that the misohley-
Gus custom of the duello can be abolished.

JUST A DOZEN
Was all That Appeared Before Judge
Burr on Monday Morn
ing.
A Thrilling Love Scene, Which Created Con-
siderable Laughter Among the
Audience.

They were in love, Amanda and William, but
the course of their affection was breaking rather
rocky, for the bull pen is queer place for cupid
to hold his court. They were in love for he him
self had said it, and they were also in jail.
But the poet saith that all is fair in love and
war and this is why they laughed the iron bars
to scorn. 1t was a funny case, showing where
ignorance is bliss 'twere folly to be wise. She
was plump and pretty and she blushed like q
patch Of frost-bitten shumack. They
were caught occupying the same apartment
early Sunday morning, the landlord of the house
giving the snap away, and the young and loving
couple were dragged out of bed and waltzed to
the city cooler. On, the vanity aud rudeness Of
the peeer. How could he be so cruel? Yester-
day they were before Judge Burr. For what?
Because they were in love. He testified that
they were TO have been married last week, but
that as he couldn't raise the money they put it
off for a few days; meantime they loved
ardently, ecstatically, devotedy and with an
everlasting grip that Rugged them together like
grim death TO defunct Ethiopian. She testified
that such was the case, that she resided with her
sister and had hidden him to come to her; that
he was all right and that the sneaking Pry of a
landlord who put his aggressive nose into their
business deserved to have it cut off. Some
in the audience said keno and the court let the
loving couple go.
I" Come into the black maria, Maud" said
Conductor Shields to Maud Young,
who is only tender and blooming in name, and
who was up yesterday for having been on a foot
and picnic. She looked appeaingly on hizzoner
but it was chilly day and there was no pity in
his eye, so she went out to where the waters of
the lake kiss the grim battements of the work
house for thirty days.
John and Bob Smith, couple of swell looking
young fellows, we're up for trying to paint the

young fellows got into dispute at 2 o'clock in

with base bal club to knock him out. OF
course they got the worst of it, and they were
fined 500

OUR CITY EDUCATORS.
The Board of Education Meets and
Decides to Borrow $4,000.

The board of education held special
meeting in their rooms in the high school
building last evening. President Schiffmann
occupied the chair and at o'clock he let the
gavel fall.
Inspectors Murphy, Minor, Giesen, Officer,
Gilbert, Athey, Hamilton and Berlandi and
Secretary Dreher answered to their names.
A rather informal discussion revealed the
fact that the board of education has plenty
of money in the county treasury, but that it
is impossible to secure it just at present. The
board needed money now to pay the teachers
salaries, and the question was how to get the
necessary root of all evil.
Inspector Hamilton solved the problem by
offering resolution authorizing The proper
authorities to borrow SIS, 900 for the purpose
of paying the teachers salaries.
After short discussion Inspector Hamil-
TOMS resolution was adopted.
Inspector Murphy presented the report of
the finance committee. The report showed
everything swimming smoothly, and 81, 975
in solid cash on hand.
On motion Of Inspector Officer, the meet
ing adjourned.

MosrAEAL, Sept. 29.-Judgmen. has just
been rendered in the superior court in the case
Of Berw orth, in which very interesting point Of
law was raised. The defendant, Herbert Ber-
worth, had bis store exactly or the frontier line
in the township Of Hinchinbrook, part of the
store being in the state Of New York and part in
Canada. One night all his goods were removed
from the Canadian side OF the store TO the Amer
can side, leaving nothing bu the empty shelves
for his Canadian creditors to look st, aud they
issued eapiss against Berworth alleging fraud
uleut secretion Of bis effects II was contended
By Berworth's counsel the goods had been
moved By Vim. Douglass 70 whom he had made
an assignment, giving Douglass voluntary pref
erence OF oyer SO, 900. which would more than
exhaust the whole estate, and argued that under
the laws Of New York al property wherever Sit
uatef Is vested in the assignee, and he is justi-
fed IN removing the goods TO america The
eoar1- however. upheld the pretensions Of the
Canadian creditors.

LONG ISLAND CITY, Sept. 29.-AnotheZat-
tempt on the part ca Charles H. Rugg, the
may be murderer, to escape from the Queens
county Jail was frustrated. One night re-
Gently when Jailer Drake was going his
rounds Rugg called him into his cell to look
at his bed, and when he got inside the negro
made quick movement to get between
Drake and the cell door, and acted so sus-
piciously the jailer lost no time in getting
outside and locking Rugg in. Yesterday
thorough search was made of Rugg's cell,
and murderous looking weapon made of
tinfoil, from packages of chewing tobacco,
firmly fastened to thick piece of wood and
weighing over three pounds, was discovered
in the ventiator. 1t is supposed Rugg made
the weapon for the purpose, whenever favor
able opportunity offered, to knock down the
jailer, secure his keys and regain his liberty.

Banished from the Poles.

The fire district telegraph poles have shed
all electric light wires, and the fire commits
sioners don't prapose to have any of the fire
alarm machinery jeopardized by such. An
application was made yesterday to run the
electric light wire on the fire alarm poles
from the Seven corners to the electric light
staff on Summit square, but as there has
been resolution passed by the council as
also by the fire commissioners, that no such
use of the fire alarm poles shall be made,
the gas company will have to find some
other wav of reaching their electric staff.

Canada's Bad Break.

KINGSTON, Ont, Sept. ga few days ago the
revenue cutter Bib ran into Charlotte harbor,
and its officers boarded the schooner Annie Fall
coner and asked to see the captains way bills
and manifests. The captain did not then have
a manifest, and as consequence the case was
reported to Washington The vessel is liable to
a fine Of $1,000. The law on the point is about
twenty years old, and has not been enforced for
nearly as many years. The officers OF the reye-
nue. cutter said that as the Canadians are becom-
ing particularly strict, the seizure Of the Island
Belle at Ganauogue being cited, they intended to
enforce the law to the very letter. The mari
ners here deplore the unfortunate action to col
lect at Ganauogue, and desire modification of
matters as soon as possible. They said no gov
eminent could have acted more leniently than
that of the United States in recent years.

"
the board of directors of the chamber of COM
merce yesterday morning.
UNION FAIR GROUNDS.
Mr.. Farchild referred TO the matter of union
fair ground between the two cities, and said that
no site had been found that was suitable and sat
isfactory to both cities. He thought that grounds
could be obtained at White Bear or Lake Phaien
which would be satisfactory.
Mr. Ingerson thought the time had come when
grounds for the state fair should be obtained.
He had talked with several of the officers of the
state fair and he felt confident that it was suit-
able time to consider the matter.
Mr. Oppenheim opposed all action in the mat
ter He did not consider the time had
come when St. Paul could interfere in the mat
ter He urged that had better wait.
Mr.. DriscoL thought that the time had come
when we should take some action He did not
agree with dr. Farchild that grounds should be
selected at White Baar or Phalen. These
grounds must be between the two cities.
Mr.. McClung gave kind of historical sketch
of previous discussions on this subject between
ST. Paul 81 Minneapolis, and argued in favor of
some kind OF action or conference between the
two cities with view of accomplishing the re-
suit referred to. Like MIR. Ingersoll, Mr.. Nc
Chung regarded the present as favorable Time
to act in the matter.
Finally Hon. Edmund Rice made motion with
the provision that he should not be made MEM
Der OF the committee, that a committee OF five
should be appointed TO confer with similar COM
mittee from the Minneapolis board of trade on
the subject Of securing permanent grounds Tor
the state fair, and that these committees confer
with the officers of the State Agricultural soci
ety. The motion adopted and the president
appointed Messrs. IngersoH, Murray, Fairchild,
Liadelie and Oppenheim.
DELINQUENT TAXES.
Capt. Blakely called attention to the fact that
very large amount of personal taxes are delin-
quent in this county.
Mr.. Lindeke stated that it was customary for
the county commissioners TO meet and strike off
all names of people who are delinquent and who
have left or unable to pay.
Capt. Berkey stated that if this was authorized
by law the law should be changed. In Pennsyl-
vania the personal tax is charged up against the
officer and he is compelled to collect the same.
So ii should be here.
Mr.. Oppenheim said we might pass all the
laws we pleased 1t would make no difference.
What we needed was an officer who would attend
TO his duty and collect the delinquent taxes. We
had no trouble when Mr.. Rice was collector. He
said that the taxes were all collected that could
be.
On motion of Mr.. McClung the committee on
taxes was instructed TO obtain a list of delin-
quents together with the amounts due and re-
port the same with recommendations.
The board then adjourned.
