A REMARKABLE FATALITY.


How Waterman Einlay Was Killed on
the Newark Bay Bridge.
An accident of a very singular charac-
ter occurred yesterday at the Newark
Bay drawbridge on the Central Railroad.
Michael Finlay, who was employed by
the railroad company, was in a watch
mans box standing just beyond the
draw on the Elizabeth side, when a
schooner sailed down the bay. There was
a high wind, the tide was ebb and rum
ming pretty strong, and the combined
causes led to the vessels missing the
draw. She therefore went head on onto
the box, striking it with her bOwSprit,
which penetrated some distance, knock
ing the box over and pinning Finlay to
the ground.
The box at once took fire from the over
turned stove, and those nearby ran at
once to it. Dragging Finlay out, they
toppled the box into the bay and then
turned their attention to the man, who
appeared to be very seriously injured.
He was removed to his home in Orient
street, Bayonne. and a physician found
that several ribs had been broken and one
had penetrated the lungs. The physician
did all in his power to relieve the mans
su~fferings, but he died in a few hours
from internal hemmorhage.
The deceased was nearly sixty years of
age, well known and greatly esteemed by
ali who knew him. He had been in the
employ of the railroad company for a
number OF years.

THE JERSEY CITY NEWS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER o. 1889

that only flashing somersaults seemed
lacking to fill out the extensive circle
of her gyrations. But Miss Hart is
eomeIy, graceful, and filed from the
tips of her nimble little toes to
the top of her neat little head with
snap and dash, so she pleases tired
eyes and keeps people awake. A de-
liciously fascinating creature is Miss
Alice Evans, who took the part OF Q
telegraph girl. She has eyes that 1t
would be hard to match in afternoons
stroll on Broadway or Fifth avenue,
and a face and form as neatly turned
as the lovely image of a nymph on a
perfect antique gem. And Miss
Evans, although not a high kicker
like Miss Hart, can dance very agree
ably. too.
The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1889-10-24
Kern,s Own Fight.

Mr.. Bill Kern gave the whole snap
dead away last night when he "ac-
cepted" an independent nomination
for Assemplyman from the Fourth
district. We have said for months
that the personal aims of Mr.. Kern
were the final impulse of the
New Committee" movement.
Noelke, Wankin, Rub and other
"reformers had their axes to
grind. A very small number of
men had honest but mistaken views
as to the public good; but when you
got away down to the bottom of the
whole business, there you found
'Bilr' Kern, the ex~-indicted- Commits
sioner of Public Works, and his per-
sonal ambition to go to the Assembly.
Well, the weather has been very
cold for Rub, Wankin, Noelke q Co.,
all oven the county. In one district
after another the Republicans have
refused to touch them with a ten foot
pole, and have made straight" NOM
nations. Even Kern has not been
able to effect a deal. His appearance
in the lists simply makes the fight a
triangular one.
Now what is he going to gain? OF
course he will not be elected. He does
not hope for that himself. He gave
up all expectation of success when he
failed to get the Republican endorse
ment. What does he want He
simply desires to wreak his miserable
spite upon Colonel Heppenheimer,
the Democratic candidate.
Colonel Heppenheimer was one OF
the best members of this years Legis-
lature. He was the leader of the
Democracy in the House and he led it
well. He was intelligent, patriotic,
manly and honest in his course and
he is fully entitled to reelection. The
people of his district are with him
cordially, and nothing but the most
outrageous fraud on the part of the
Republicans and Kernites can posi-
bly, compass his defeat.

Down with those scups.

Again last night the disgusting
scenes we're repeated at the scupping
joint at the Mara Foundry on Grand
street. The only variety was the APP
pearance of Policeman Jack Nugent,
who did a good action in driving out
of the abominable place the crowd of
young girls who were taking lessons
in vice from a gang of hardened young
toughs. But Nugent has a big post
to cover, and all he could spare to the
Foundry was five or ten minutes.
The moment his back was turned the
flock of little geese thronged back to
their destruction, and the fun grew
fast and furious as the hour grew
later.
The proprietor, or the manager, OF
whatever he is, expressed himself as
seriously alarmed at the exposure
made by THE JERSEY CITY NEWS.
He talked to several people of clear
ing out, as he was afraid of being ar
rested. "Thus conscience" &c.
Now let us make a suggestion to
| Chief Murphy. Station an officer,
Chief, permanently in the building.
Instruct him to enforce perfectly dec
orous behavior, and to send all girls
under eighteen, say, out of the place
at eight o'clock, and compel them to
stay out. We will guarantee that the
place will be closed in a week for lack
of profit. There is no money in it as
a legitimate enterprise; it is only as a
school of immortality that it -four
ishes. Abolish that element and it is
dead.
But in truth, Chief, we do not see
why you do not close it with the
strong arm of the law. 1t is a 'sdis-
orderly house" if ever we heard of one.
1t is a public nuisance. Arrest every
one connected with it, close it up, and
see that your prisoners are punished
with a severity that will operate to
prevent others from starting similar
infamous enterprises in u midst for
many a day to come.
You can do it, Chief, and you will
have the whole community with you.

The Fashion for Tinsel.

Tinsel has been the fashion for this
year, and is likely to continue, but
during the winter and autumn gold
threatens to be as well worn as silver.
Some very exquisite front breaths on
white and light shades are worked in
gold, with a huge set pattern in gold,
quite half a yard being required to
show it off. In others rich silks are
interthreaded with tinsel, and have
small tinsel motifs scattered all over.

Very respectfully,
HENRY WALTON,
Solicitor Subscription Department.
We trust this energetic action will
stay the ravages which have been eat

quite content with our own progress.
There has not been a day in the last
six weeks when we have not sold

wet Monday, OF curse it is only a
few more every day; but the aggregate
surprises ourselves. We + at
work all the time, too. VIZ are push

to keep on until our circulation equals
that of all the other papers in the
county put together. 1t may take a
year; but we don't get tired easily.

Ourselves and Our Competitor.

Ourselves and Our Competitor.
We write this article, not for the
purpose OF injuring our only coinpeti-
tor, with whose legitimate business
we have no desire TO interfere; but
simply to afford the public an indirect
but unquestionable proof of our own
splendid success.
Our own assertions upon this point
are, of course, open to the suspicion
that they are colored by self interest
though in fact they have been very
modest statements of the truth. The
jealous alarm of a rival, however, is
the best proof of the reality of our
gains, and also of the fact, of which
we were not previously aware, that
these gains were made largely at the
expense OF our competitor.
That the Epeniqlg Journal has be-
come panic stricken at the drift of
affairs is c~onclusively proven by the
following circular. which is at present
being printed by the thousand in its
job office and which will be scattered
over the county next week.
OFFICE OF
