OF fever and aguc. or bilious remittent
fever, don't resort to q%uinine, a cumula-
tive and pernicious drug that has ruined
many constitutions. Use without delay a
remedy which the leading physicians of
America have recommended for over
thirty years past-Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. Dumb ague and ague shake, no
less than the febrile forms of malarial
disease, are promptly relieved and ulti-
mately uprooted by it. In the tropics,
where febriIe complaints of this sort are
more v%irulent than in the temperate zone,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters has estab-
lished a reputation for preventive and
remedial efficacy which competition has not
been able to affect prejudicially-nay, has
ever served to strengthen. Disorders of
the stomach and bowels, particularly those
to which malaria gives rise, are speedily
relieved by it. Kidney complaints, rheu-
matIsm, nervousness and sleeplessness,
sick headache and constipation, yield to
il. Appetite and sleep are both improved
bv it.

A ROBBERY.
Mr.. G. Gall Makes a Morning Raid on a
Dry Goods store.

Great Gall is doubtless the real title of
an individual who figured as leading man
in a little episode on Eddy street yester-
day forenoon. Sauntering up to NJ.
Marks store, Mr.. Gall unconcernedly
placed a pair of blankets and a ~tarpaulin,
which were on exhibition in front, under
his arm and peacefully continued onward.
The goods were soon missed and an officer
summoned.
Gall was found 10 Hides second hand
store, pouring a tale of woe into
the ear of the proprietor. He tearfully
stated that the blankets were the last of
his belongings, and that his greatest desire
was to realize a sufficient sum from their
sale to redeem a valued heirloom from the
grasping NAV of some heartless pawn
broker. =.
The man acknowledged his guilt with a
brazen air, and while handing over the
blankets without demurring he refused to
disclose the hiding. place of the ~tarpaulin.
Officer ingalls, and Billy Gavin used per
suasion on their subject, and finally Sc
cured the property by promising to pro-
vide Gall with a drink of 'red-eYe' last
evening. The thief had secrcted the tar
paulin in the alley in the rear of the Sim
mons house. He will be given a hearing
to.day.

loNiocS Wv AiiSH
Without exception the finest %melodrama
that was ever played in Hoboken was put
before the audience last night. The play
was the Wages of Sin. 1t was produced
by a company of rare excellence. In the
whole Of the strong aud wen cast there
is not one weak part. The audience
showed its appreciation of the grand
melodrama and the capital company last
night by ~applauding with an enthusiasm
that was marked IN its liberality. The
play is replete with striking situations
and thrilling dramatic scenes, and at the
same time interspersed with refined com
edy. The stage dressing is excellent, the
scenery all that can be desired, and the
ladies' costumes truly magnificent.
The same cast presents the play at the
opera house Saturday evening.

TOURNAMENT TALK.
The Project Being Agitated With Pros
poets of success.

Every able jawed fireman in town Is
now talking tournament and the prospects
that a contest between the volunteer COM
panies will be a portion of the Fourth OF
July celebration programme are daily
growing brighter. Nothing arouses more
interest in the fire companies than an
occasional tournament, and the efficiency
of the department depends almost wholly
upon the interest manifested in its well
fare by the members. Upon the citizens
deyolves in a great measure the task Of
encouraging and maintaining this necessa-
ry interest.
THE LEADER is convinced that proper
management can arrange a successful
tournament at a very small outlay. The
boys would be well satisfied with moder-
ate cash prizes or aver medals or other
suitable trophies.
A firemen's committee is now laboring
with the celebration problem. With the
assistance Of a few liberal citizens the end
sought can be easily encompassed.
That the tournament would be largely
attended goes without saying and that the
business men of the town would derive a
desirable and direct benefit is morally GER
tain.
Let tournament and gorgeous cele-
bration be agitated until both become as
sured facts.
