aPETEn STILL FILLS THE HOUSE.

Ed. Harrigan's Friends Know a Good
Thing When They See 1T.
When Ed. Harrigan restored "Pete"
to the stage of his theatre after the
run of his melodrama, which was only
moderately successful, he not only did
a wise thing for his box office, but he
also showed bis Willingness to return
to that field N which he is best quail
fed to work. There is realism in
s'Pete,n and that is what the public
has applauded in Mr.. Harrigan's plays,
and in his acting, since he took his
first steps on the road to popular
favor.
The study of unique phases of char
acter is his forte, and he knows how
to portray them with just SO much ex-
aggeration as is used in the rougher
lines of a statue that becomes perfect
when viewed at a proper distance.
Pete is full of such work. Negro
traits have seldom been better, put
upon the stage. Harrigan has caught
the humor of the Southern darkey to
perfection. The dialect, the songs,
the superstitions of the colored race,
their good nature and capabilities for
nODle are Ill III Iete. IOp-
ular appreciation of such really good
work is gratifying to those who regret
to see the success that trash occasion
ally achieves.
There is plenty of good music and
clever dancing in Pete" It's scenic
effects are well arranged. The COM
pany has been trained to the last de-
gree of excellence. 1t wouldseem as if
everybody must have seen this play,
but if so everybody is going a second
time, for the audiences are large each
night and matinee.

Progressive Euchre.

A small progressive euchre party
was given last night by Miss Carrie 3.

bisque vase, was taken by Miss Mary
Hathaway, and the gentlemen's, a
smoking set, by Horace Evans. Sup
per was served at II o'clock, after
which dancing followed. until
time for the guests to de-
part for their homes. Some

Republican virtuousness.

ID Republicans are not SO en-
bred of the Australian Election bill
hey pretend to be, and their adop-
ton Of it as a caucus measure the other
evening was a grand bluff" They
pretend that they are anxious to end
the democratic frauds" in Hudson.
They are a good deal anxious to
protect the rascally election methods
that have made Camden shameful in
the eyes of the people for many years,
and their adoption Of the Australian
Election bill as a party measure was
! probably designed to defeat it by driv-
ng the Democrats into making its, de-
bat a matter of Democratic party
policy.
They seem to have assumed that
if the Republicans stand for it,
ordinary caucus contrariness will in
duce the Democrats to stand against
it. In this instance they may have
reckoned without their host. Gov
ernor Green's advocacy of the bill will
materially assist its passage, and it al
ready has the quasi-indorsement of
the Democratic caucus. How Robe
son and the other Republican rascals
in Camden would howl if the bill
should be put through.
1t is Camden that we are after.

teur comedians from New York pro-
voked rounds of laughter and APP
plause. Messrs. Joe Macy and Add
Manning, the former in banjo special
ties, and the latter in a comical sketch,
entitled s'All the Way from Germany"

Our Brave Citizen soldiers.

AssEMBIyMAN Feeney has done
some good work at Trenton, but he
made o serious mistake when he spoke
as he did, yesterday, of the National
Guard of New Jersey. The militia of
no country can be the equal of the
trained veterans of a dozen campaigns.
Indeed, it is not intended that they
should be. 1t is also true that la
tional guardsmen are prone to gaudy
trappings, which is probably what he
meant when he called them muslin
paper soldiers" Such decorations
are among the things which help re-
cruit their ranks; and armies have at
all times been inclined to them.

tional Guard is. on the other hand,

Amnaement at simpson church.


Simpson Methodist Church, on the
Heights, was well filled last evening,
aud the efforts of the Mission Board to
entertain its audience were highly sue
cessful. Mrs. Il. G. Cook, the presi-
dent, made a brief address. The Pro-
clyan Glee Club, composed of Messrs.
F. Hallenbeck, w. Ruggles, w.
Richards and G. D.. De Voc, rendered
several excellent quartettes, end reci-
tations we're delivered by Misses Lulu
Farrant, Annie Chaplin and Florence
Seguin. 'Muzzer's Baby" by little
Dollie Gilmore was highly relished by
the audience, as were also a vocal duet
by the little Conklin sisters and an
organ solo by six-year-old Maudie
Sells. "Amputation," a pantomime,
was cleverly performed by Fred
Drake and Willie Beach. Willie was
a patient with a sore toe Ia potato),
and DR.. Drake amputated it with a dry,
rusty carpenters saw. Calisthenics
exercises with bells were clever1y ex-
ecuted by five young girls, Daisy
Rhinehart, Stella Sequin, Susie Conk-
lin, Eva Rouse and Grace Taft, all
under fourteen years of age; and tab
leaux vivant, representing Aud Lang
Syne'' and ssOld Maids Tea Party"
were charming1y portrayed. A piano
solo by Miss Lulu Farrant and song
by Miss Annie Chaplin were among the
most enjoyable features of the occa-
sion. The whole affair was a success in
every particular.

THE VIGOROUS action Of the Gu

THE VIGOROUS action of the Gut
tenberg Racing Association authori-
ties, after a thorough investigation
of Tuesdays Glendale race had been
held, commends itself to the racing
public. The lessons graphically illus
trated are twofold. The class of patrons
who are wont to delare under the
slightest pr~ovocation that this or that
owner has his hooks too deep into
the track to be punished, have opin-
ions to change. Those owners who
believe they are shrewd enough to es-
cape detection in crooked practices
need to reflect and mend the error OF
their WAYS.

We Are on the Peoples Side.

WE print, in another column, a re-
port of the proceedings of the Single
Tax League, last night, including the
passage of a resolution of thanks to
THE JERSEY CRY NEWS for the
stand it has taken upon the water
question.
While disagreeing with our friends,
the followers Of Henry George, upon
many points-indeed, upon the car
dinal principle Of their faith-we are
still glad to be in line with them upon
this great issue, and we cordially APP
preciate the support they tender us in
the fight we have begun.
We believe we are on the peoples
side in this whole water controversy,
and the reason we want the Feeney
bill passed is that we wish to confide
to the voters themselves the power to
stamp the swindlecates out of ex-
istence. That they will do SO is be-
yond all question, and that is
the a the fresh water
pirates are prepared to use any
means, however vicious, to defeat
the bill.
But the Feeney bill must pass. If it
does not, the JERSEY Cry NEWS will
remember all the facts and the people
will be duly reminded of them when
election day comes around.
The JERSEY CITy NEWS has only
one ambition-to be on the side of the
people and their best interests upon
all o1nSfiOng
