. TRENTON, April 10, 1ss9.-Senator Ed
wards introduced a bill legalizing O'Neill's
proclamation submitting the charter to
election, and also one wiping out the pres
ent Morristown Asylum managers and
providing for the appointment of their
successors by the Governor and Senate.
The House passed Fagan's Hoboken Park
bill. The bill making the salary of Mayors
Of Jersey City and Newark $1,000 excited
declaring the present salary to be absurdly
low, and saying that the people of Jersey
CITY had shown their confidence in the
present Mayor by the majority piled up
for the Charter.
Newark members opposed the bill.
Dick Brown claimed that Jersey City
could not afford to pay the amount
named. The opposition was so strong
that the bill was laid over to avoid
defeat. The salary will probably
be made $500. Mr.. Edwards also intro
duced in the Senate, bills giving to the
Governor the appointment OF Fisheries
Commissioners and managers of the In
dustrial School for Girls and of the Re
form School for Boys.
When the Mayors Salary bill was ON
sidered again the salary was made thirty
five hundred. Nj. Voorhees, offered an
amendment providing that the act shall
not apply to Mayors now in office.
He admitted that the present salary was
inadequate, but objected to the principle.
He declared that when people learn the
amount of the salary roll under the new
charter they will be astounded. The
amendment was voted down and the bill
ordered ~re-engrossed.
Hudspeth's Notary Public bill passed.
It ends the commissions of existing 10
taries July 4, and provides thereafter for
terms of five years.

A GORGEOUS SPECTACLE.
h Spring Opening at Ridleys' Great
Store on Grand Street, New York.

AhO 1T CIChAh& ~ ANfuACy 0AO&t
Store on Grand Street, New York.
Yesterday was the first day of the spring
opening at e. Ridley q Sons. The i'm
mense store on Grand street was artist
cally arranged for the occasion, and the
new spring goods were displayed in an
effective manner.
The windows were tastefully and skill
fully dressed, and attracted large crowds
of shoppers about them. Within, the
visitors were first greeted with the sight
of a huge green frog, which forcibly re-
minded them that spring had come, and
it was time to change their attire. An
arch, with Easter Opening' woven on it
in violets and green leaves, was erected
in a conspicuous part of the first floor,
where many novelties in Easter cards,
laces and passementeries, jewelry, per-
fumery and notions of all descriptions are
found.
The greatest attractions for the ladies
were in the millinery department, where
the Easter hats and bonnets We're dis
played in great variety. Toques, Senor-
itas, Zigzags and Leghorns, trimmed with
the fashionable new shades and materials
and sprays or clusters of flowers found
many ready purchasers. III the centre of
this department, which is handsomely
fitted up, stood a fine crayon portrait of
the late Edward Ridley. The frame was
composed Of roses and pinks in natural

which upheld it, was a wealth of laurel.
Many people admired it during the day.
In the other departments many unique
attractions were seen. Stylish gowns of
fine materials, made in the prevailing
Directoire and Empire fashions, elegant
tea gowns, and cloaks, Of which the peas
ant and Directoire seemed to be in most
demand, pretty jackets in great variety,
lace and white robes could not fail to
please those wishing such garments.
A large assortment of parasols, with the
long oxydized handles now in style, and
of many designs, were effectively ar
ranged.
In the basement of this large and D
lar emporium were four miniature and
automatic scenes of winter, spring, sum
mer and autumn. The wheat field | IN the
summer pantomime, and the May-pole in
the spring scene were particularly fine,
and all day the place was crowded with
spectators. In this department is the
china and glass ware, of which a large
stock of both expensive and cheap is
always on hand. Willow and tinware are
are also found here.
The store was crowded all day with
many visitors, who enjoyed seeing the
many pretty novelties wen calculated to
attract their attention.

THE GIANTS WIN A GAME.
GREAT HITTING III ROUND, BUI
NEW YORK rs 4HEAD.

NEW YORK IS HEAD.
New York Defeats the Metropolitans on
the Oakland Park Grounds by the
Score of Thirteen Runs to Five.
Smiling Mickey WEIGH pitched
against the Metropolitan nine for
seven innings, yesterday afternoon,
and came out on top.
The Nets hit him hard for a time,
but he at last got control of the ball,
and thereafter there was no question
Of the result. Six of the visitors hits
were made in the first two innings.
After that Mickey began to get down
to business, though it was his first
game this year, and the Nets did not
score until the seventh inning, when
Cranes base on balls and Kennedy
and Hankinson's two-baggers rolled up
two earned runs.
The Indian chief, Roseman, made
four base hits in succession, two of
them being doubles, but Whitney beat
wen this. He went to the bat five
times and got to first on his own work
five times. In the third inning he
made a two-bagger, in the fourth a
single, in the seventh and eighth, sin
giles, and in the ninth a double.
Who has ever equalled this record?
Four hundred is a great batting
average, but Whitney made a thous-
andl
Without counting long hits.
The Giants put up a good game,
and if it had not been for q little loose
play the game would have been
greater than it was.
In the first inning, on a tumble of
Danny Richardson's, hits by Troy,
Kennedy and Hankinson, and a muff
by Danny, the Nets scored three
runs.
This was all until the seventh, when,
on Cranes base on balls and doubles
by Kennedy and Hankinson, two runs
were scored, bringing the total up to
five.
New York went out in one, two,
three order until the third inning,
when Whitney wrapped one to left
field for two bags and came home on
8uchanan's wild return of Browns
hot one. Brown got home when Troy
let Fosters low hit pass him.
In the next inning Conner led off
with a two-bagger, took third on Rich
ardson's sacrifice and scored IN Whit
ney's single to short left field, Whitney
getting around on Browns triple.
In the seventh inning Whitney
started off with O single and came
home on Browns double; Brown scor-
ing on Foster'strlple. O'Rorirke raped
out a double and Foster scored, Jim
coming in on a double by Conner, who
scored himself or a passed ball.
In the next inning Whitney and
Brown made hits, Hatfield flew out,
and after a series of wild throws and
fumbles, and Fosters single, with
Jacky Lynch's tumble, three runs
came in.
In the last inning Danny Richard
son hit safe, and came home on Whit
ney's fifth hit-this one being good for
two bags-and thirteen runs had been
made.
Young Jimmy Hayes pitched for the
Giants for the last two innings, and
only one hit was made from his de-
livery.
Jacky Lynch had dyed his mus
tache afresh, so that he was scarcely

rhe ..silver Ageo al jacobs.

Edwin f. Mayo makes his first appear
ance in Hoboken in his new play, "Silyer
Age" on Thursday evening. The play is
a border melodrama, full of road agents,
Villains, shooting affairs and hairbreadth
escapes. Mr.. Mayo, as Captain John
Cation, or Cool Jack, has full opportunity
to display the muscular heroism which
characterizes all stage frontier heroes.
The plot is conventional, but there are
many strong situations. Cool Jacks
struggle with the captain of the road
down to a whirlpool of real water, and
the rescue of the hero and heroine, Lena
Wilder, from the maelstrom, and the
blowing up and burning Of a ranch on a
hill, are two OF the best.
Miss Madge Butler, as Lena Wilder. is
an efficient assistant TO Mr.. Mayo. The
rest of the support are very capable.

PRESIDENT HARRIsON'J ADDRESS.
The Lessons that are Taught by the Life
of Washington.

There was great scene of enthusiasm wher
the Presidentlal party appeared. Thirty thou
sand persons, cheered, waved hats. handker
stood on the platform just before the heroic
statue of Washington, and gazed down Broad
street as the first President did one hundred
years ago to-day. He saw before him sea oi
faces extending beyond Exchange Place, and IL
Wall street, from Broadway and Old Trinity to
William street. There were brilliant uniforms o
the militia of many States, and the deep blue OF
the veterans was mir gled with the brighter
colors OF the ladies. For five minutes he could
only bow in response to the cheers of the men
and the waving of the handkerchiefs of the
ladies. President Harrison said
These proceedings are of a very exciting
character and make it quite unnecessary that
should deliver an address on this occasion AT
at early date notified your committee that the
programme must not contain an address by me.
ine selection OF MI Depew as orator on this oc-
casion was well, and to make further speeches
is not only difficult, but superfiuous. He mas
met the demand of the occasion on its own
high level. He has brought before us the incl
dents of the ceremonies of the great inaueura-
ton OF Washington. We seem to be part OF
the admiring and almost adoring throng that
niieo tnese streets hundred years ago to greet
always the inspiring presence of Washington
He was the incarnation of duty and teaches us
TO day this great lesson: Those who would asso-
ciate their names with events that shall outliye
a century can only do so by the highest conse-
Grafton to duty. He was like the Captsin who
goes To sea and throws overheard his cargo that
he may gain safety for his imperiled fellow
men. Washington seemed to come to the dis
cnarge OF the duties his high office impressed
with great sense of his unfamiliarity with the
position newly thrust upon him. Modt st, doubt
fnl Of his own ability but trusting Implicitly in
MS hopefulness of that God who rules the world
ana presloes in the conscience of the nation
ana In ms power to control human events
we have made marvellous progress in material
events since then, but the stately and enduring
shaft which We have built at the National Cap.
