A Broker stricken with Apoplexy.

A well dressed man, about forty-five
years old, was stricken with apoplexy
while waiting for a train yesterday after
noon in the Central Railroad Company's
Depot. An ambulance was summoned
and he was taken to the City Hospital,
where he was identified as Charles f.
Davenport. a broker, of Nc. 100 West
Thirty-second street, Bayonne. A friend of
Davenport called at the hospital this
morning and promised to bring h sick
mans wife later in the day. 1t is thought
that Davenport is a broker.

The Trenton .Enporatsm saws :

THE JERSEY City News is too good a paper to
adopt q type line measurement of its items i'll
comparing with that of its rivals. That is the
style of the Bnngto10n Bugter, and THE NEWS is
metropolitan. That kind of comparison must
have been written by the country reporter from
Gutenberg while the editor was over in New
York opening a bottle with Grover.
THE JERSEY CITY News is pub
lished for people of all sorts and all
grades of intelligence. There are
people who measure the value of a
newspaper with a tape line. 1t is our
pride to try to satisfy these as well as
broader minded readers.

A NEW CATHollG ACADEMY
To Be Erected On II Present Site of st.
A1oysius' School

The community of the Sisters of Charity
of st. Vincent de Paul, in this city,
contemplate erecting a new acad-
envy building and convent house
upon the site now occupied
by St. Aloysius' Academy on Grand street
near Warren street. They find that the
present building is inadequate for their
purposes, and propose to erect on the plot,
which is one hundred feet square, a fine
brick building.
The plans and specifications for the new
structure have not yet been determined
upon.
The brick building now occupied by the
Sisters as d. convent house will be turned
into a home. The Sisters will hold a
bazaar on May "a, in the old Academy
building, in aid of the building fund.

Moneys Growing Power.

NhOtCy . 0AONlAS
There is a significance in the aequit-
tai of Thomas B. Kerr, the Broadway
boodler, which cer the whole
country. 1t means that the people
have no longer the adherence OF
bribery, which is one of the conditions
Of the prosperity of a republic.
There is no doubt that the Board of
Aldermen were bribed, and the source
from which the money came is also
well known. The jury simply decided
that it has not been proved that Kerr
knew what vas going on.
The belief is prevalent that the sue
cess of the Republicans last autumn
was due largely to the use of money
with which voters were corrupted.
John Wanarnaker, a Sunday school
superintendent, was the chief instru-
ment in raising this money, and the
people regard the Postmaster General
ship as his reward.
In our own State, to mention only
one example, rumors are current that
the power of the lobby is almost equal
to the power of the Legisla-
ture. Money is the source of the
lobby's power.
Political economists often discuss the
growing cheapness of flour, clothing
and the necessaries of life.
Men are growing cheap, too, APP
parently.

and sat down and read the Middlesex

he heard three joyful and triumph

three pigs had returned from their
lonely island home. Some one who
saw the pigs coming across the wide
lake said they steered as straight for

WELL-WORN CLOTHING.

How to Restorc Freshness to All Sorts OF
W0olen Wearing Apparel.
The mystery to many people how
the scourers of old clothes can make
them look almost as good as new, is
explained in the American Analyst as
follows: Take. for instance, a shiny
old coat, vest or pair Of pants, Of
'broadcloth, cashmere or Diagonal
The scourer makes strong. warm
soapsuds and plunges the garment into

coat and the iron passed over that un-
til the wrinkles are out; but the iron
Is removed before the steam ceases to
rise from the goods, else they would be
shiny. Wrinkles that are obstinate are
removed by laying wet cloth over
them and passing the iron over that
III any shiny places are seen they arc
treated as the wrinkles are; the iron
is lifted while the full cloud Of steam
rises and brings the nap up with 1t.
Cloth should always have suds made
especially for it. as II that which has
been used for white cotton or woolen
clothes lint will be left in the water
and cling to the cloth. In this man
ner we have known the same coat and
pantaloons to be renewed time and
again and have all the look and feel Of
new garments. Good broadcloth and
its fellow cloths will bear many wash
ings and look better every time be-
cause OF them. s-.-.-z--s-z--=sEsss#s=5-.zsz-zz-
