places, she claims the Governors rooms
and the Assembly and Senate Chambers.
Stale House habitues for the last fifteen
or more years know her well, and she is
popular and good natured. One of her
special points is to escort families of Sen
ators and Assemblymen through the build

extra service into the Incidental Bill, they
remember her by voting to pass it. So it
has happened that she has come to be

Mayor Haynes's effort at the construct
ion OF the first Police and Fire Commission
for the City of Newark is not meeting
with unqualified approval. His nomina.
tons were sent in to the Common Council
the other evening, but they were tabled
with a promptness and energy that sug-
gests the possibility of their ultimate re-
lection. 1t is to the Mayors credit that
no objection is made to the personal
character of any of his nominees. But he
seems to have shown no skill or tact in
the choice of men fitted for the particular
duties to which he proposed to assign
them. Only one of the four men selected
for Fire Commissioners, for instance. has
ever had anything to do with fire matters.
Then it is objected that of the eight ap-
pointees to the two boards, four of them
have been taken from two of the fifteen
wards in Newark, and the Irish-American
element is nowhere represented among
them. These things have led to considera-
Bile feeling all around, in both parties.
The nominees will probably be confirmed,
but not with good grace.

Gently offered the chance said the Chief
might 60 and get the dog himself il he
wanted it. The Chief didn't want 1t
much and the dog was left to die at his
possible one he was chained to--and did
It nobly. AS a matter Of fact it is q
pretty hard matter TO tell when dog is
mad. The Journal, which ought to be
an authority on mad dogs says that a dog
reported to the police the other day was
undoubtedly mad, because It ate grass and
frothed at the mouth. It seems little
| queer that dog should be able to find
grass to eat at this time of the year. Per-
haps it may have been hay. But the
Journal should know that the instinct
of sick dogs frequently prompts them to
eat grass, hay or straw, and it is therefore
an indication Of sense rather than rabies.
And as to dogs being mad because be
froths at the mouth, that's all nonsense.
A glass Of beer froths at the mouth some
times, but no one ever thinks of calling il
mad on that account. Altogether it strikes
us that this mad dog business is being
vastly overdone, and we are glad 10 see
that the New Jersey Kennel Club con
templates offering prize for an authen-
ticated case of rabies. That will test the
matter and give the poor dogs u show.

The dog will have his day" says
Shakespeare, but it seems likely to be a
cold day he will have in Jersey City for
some time. War has been declared on The

trembled. Those that did not had the

One intelligent dog residing in Jersey

The acquittal of druggist Am Ende
pleases that sentiment of our nature that
sympathizes with him in his peril; but
leaves the element of justice entirely out
of view. His responsibility for the death
of the two Misses Holtz was established at
the trial beyond all question, and so far as
we are able to discern, no serious defence
was attempted, except that he didn't mean
to do it and was sorry that it had hap
pened. His plea that his physical all
ments and overwork had brought on a
mental exhaustion that made him absen:-
minded aud apt to do the things he had
in hand mechanically, was really point
in favor of the prosecution. Such man
should have kept away from his labora-
tory, and left the compromising of medi-
cines 10 someone who would be more
likely to keep bis wits about him. Nor
was it encouraging to see the druggists
trooping from all parts of the county to
swear that just the thing that happened
in Am Ende's drug store was liable to
happen in any well regulated drug store.
1t was as an examplar for these pill makers
who are SO ready to admit that they are as
apt to kill by mistake as to cure by care,

self-respect on his part not TO be identified

The Board of Works having had diff
Guilty in inducing the Board of Finance to
concur in some Of their pay rolls, tries the
experiment of riding over the financieis's
heads and sent their pay rolls direct to the
Mayor for signature. Mayor Collins re-
fused to sign unless the concurrence OF
the Board of Finance was first secured.
Then the Board ordered the pay rolls sent
back to the Mayor again. just what they
propose to do with them when they get
them there it would be hard to say. No
warrant can be paid till the Mayor has
signed it, and it seems impossible to get
the warrants beyond his Office, if the pay
rolls are sent back to him forty times.
The Board Of Works win have to ask the
Board of Finance for concurrence in the
expenditures the same as ever.

How soon the great public forgets things,
no matter how important they may have
been vt the lime of their occurrence. The
Rev. DR.. George Bristor, who was arrested

Bristor who in The Summer of 1884 only
eighteen months ago-was charged with .
still more infamous crime Chad as the pres
ent allegation Isl at Newark, which affair
was kept out of the courts through sheer
herror at the infamy. Bristor pleaded
guilty at the time and sneaked away to
Baltimore, but his family drove him back
to demand trial-at the hands of the
Conference. The grand jury wasn't good
enough for him. The Conference found
him guilty, but he appealed the case and
it has not yet been decided. Now, why.
we should like to ask Elder Craig, is this
man allowed 10 preach The finding of
the Conference may not be final, but it is
certainly an insult to any community to

An interview gentleman connected
with the SUNDAY TATTLER had with
United States Senator Mcpherson at
Washington upon home and State topics,
which is published on the first page of to-
days issue, will be read with much inter-
est everywhere, and will doubtless elicit
widely divergent comments The Senator
seems to have unbosomed himself, with
unusual freedom, to the correspondent
who furnishes Jus the interview, and the
letter will be regarded all over the State
probably as an important contribution to
the States political literature. Some ..will
find in the readiness with which the Senator
expresses his belief that the Republicans
will have a majority in the Joint Houses
of the Legislature of 1887 as they have in
the Joint Houses of the Legislature about
to assemble, evidence of his sympathy
with Senator Sewell in his fight for
reelection, while others will regard the
views as the candidly expressed forecasts
Of one who has singular opportunities for
observation.

FOREST KING COMMUNICATION.
FOREST KING NINE, Aug. 4, SO.

oRhST kING MINE, aug. 4, 90.
Ed. WORLD. Dear Sir: Last Sat
urday's fire at the Gold Hill mine, in
volving loss of several thousand dol
lars to that company, should prove a
wholesome lesson, more especially to
those using steam as motive power,
as to the necessity of having their
buildings under control of hose, for
such are constantly exposed to fire
from cinders, blown up the smoke
stack, falling on the roof, and espe-
cially when the atmosphere is calm.
That many thousands of dollars have
been lost in this way by fire since the
erection of the first quartz mill IN the
Basin. Take for instance the old Eu-
reka mill and that of Eldorado gulch
ill Gambrinus District and others.
To those having water in abundance
| have nothing to say other than the
fault is theirs if they will allow fire,
instead of water, to control the roofs
of their buildings, by not availing
themselves of the ordinary hydraulic
pressure so simple and SO we'll known
to all placer miners; but those mill
owners using steam, and where wa
ter is scarcely sufficient for them to
get along with their business, and
who would be disposed to avail them
selves of any plan whereby to put out
fire in critical moment, l will offer
simple means of giving very small
quantity, just what is enough to feed
the boiler, pressure sufficient to throw
steady stream forty or fifty feet.
No other machinery is needed than
the injector or inspirator already at
hand, together with an attachment
which cost this company Forest
king) delivered here only three or
four dollars, and for whom l have
lately fitted one. There is no waste
of water, nor is a waste necessary, as
the water, either on its way to boiler
or back to reservoir, as the case may
be, is instantly turned into hose by a
lever handle when desired, and con-
veyed any reasonable distance re-
quired. shall feel happy in giving
the benefit of this to any mill owner
free, as wish to see the industrial
resources of the Territory, and espe-
cially of Boise county, we'll opened
up. A mishap, such as that which
befell the Gold Hill Company, can
not but cause dsmper which | sin
cerely trust in their case may be oil
short duration. That company has
my warmest sympathy, and l hope
ere few months pass over to hear
once more, from the mountain side
up here, the loud toot of the Gold
Hill whistle.
Yours very truly,
