AMUSEMENTS.
The Still Alarm at the Academy.

Ii Still Alarm at the Academy.
Harry Lacy begins a weeks engage
ment at the Academy of Music,
tonight, in the successful play, 1.-THE
Still Alarm" This romantic melo-
drama with it's thrilling incidents and
ingenious realistic effects has had an
exceptional career. Rarely, if ever,
has an American play achieved SO
great a success ON foreign shores. ALI
London went to see it when it was
produced at the Princess Theatre.
Captain Shaw, (wholn everybody
knows as London's fire chief since
Gilbert and Sullivan immortalized
him) watched it from a box and APP
plauded heartily. The London IeIe-
graph, said in a very long notice of
the performance
The shout of the gallery boy, who asked what
does Captain Shaw say to that?'' might have
been answered very satisfactorily by the gallant
chief of our London Fire Brigade. The play is
American, the ftremen are American, the engine
has been brought over expressly from New York.
1t is well that such scenes should be so well done
as to be popular. They encourage a hearty,
healthy spirit. They call attention to the excel
lent work and discipline of a brave set of fellows;
and, whether the scene be set in New York or
London, it is an admirable picture of a vigorous
phase of mans duty.
Harry Laey'sconception of the char
acter of Jack Manley is faultless, and
his rendering is remarkable for it's en-
tire spontaneity and naturalness. The
story of the play is interesting, andth
incidents follow one upon the other
too quickly to permit the attention of
the audience to waver. He is sup
ported by a competent company. The
real fire engine and the clever horses
add an attraction to a play upon the
success of which Mr.. Joseph Arthur,
the author, may be heartily congrat-
ulated. 1t is to be given every even
ing this week, but the only matinee is
on SATURDAY.

OSNSS HNNOSsS
The Leading Democratic Organ.
The general recognition of THE
SUNDAY MORNING NEWS as the lead
ing Democratic newspaper in New
Jersey is general and unhesitating.
1t comes from all quarters of the State
and likewise from without the State.
The latest instance is to be found in
the New York Press of yesterday.
This leading republican organ pre-
pared an important article upon the
Presidential preferences of the lead
ing democratic editors Of the country,
and as a matter of course selected
THE SUNDAY MORNING NEWS as the
representative democratic paper of
this State.
This selection was, of course, wholly
impersonal. The editor of THE JER-
sEy CITY News pretends to no politi-
cal prominence, and seeks none.
Neither has he the pleasure of any
personal acquaintance with the Editor
of the PresS,or-so far as he can recall
with any member of the staff of that
enterprising paper.
The Press singled out THE SUNDAY
MORNING NEWS to speak for the de-
mocracy of this State because in en-
terprise, Judgment and newspaper
standing it was obviously the leading
journal on it's side of the poll
teal field. The press and
the public everywhere recognize that
THE SUNDAY MORNING NEWS and
THE JERSEY City NEWS are incor-
ruptibly democratic, that they rank
with the best newspapers in the State,
and that, at the utmost, only two or
three New Jersey newspapers have
any pretension to rank with them.
Another proof of the strong and
secure position of these papers in the
public favor was the increase in our
sales on Sunday morning. 1t was not
in itself a large increase. 1t was not
one of these sudden jumps that
we have made previous weeks
probably we can 70 longer hope for
these-but an increase of even a hun
dred or a hundred and fifty copies q
Sunday means a great deal at the end
of a year, besides being encouraging
present evidence of the continued
good will of the reading public.
One point more we desire to notice,
that is the manner in which the local
advertisers are rallying around us.
AT first almost our entire patronage
in this direction came from New York,
where the Metropolitan tone and APP
pearance of our sheet at once at
tracted the attention of the big adver-
tisers. The Jersey City storekeepers
.sheld off, They wanted to be con-
WINGED of our power to benefit them.
That is all over now. Nearly every
business house of any account in the
City was represented in our issue of
yesterday. Look at the list;-Perl,
mutter, Russell, Emmons & Cronan
Brown &Van Anglen, Hartnett, Sands,
Rochat, Mullins, Turner 81 Bennell,
Stevens, Rouget, Zabinski-and a host
of others.
They have found that THE JERSEY
Cry NEWS and THE SUNDAY MORN
ING News are the papers to advertise
in to secure business, and they are
now with us to stay.
THEY have a cheerful way of dis
couraging strikes out in Germany.

Arrested for the sayrevilie Riot.

New BRUNSWICK, May 10, 1ss9.-M. H.
Hendrickson, general freight and passen
ger agent of the Raritan River Railroad,
is in Jail here on u charge of murder
growing out of the riot at Sayreville.
The charge was made by Edwin Furman,
through whose property Hendrickson and
his men tried to lay tracks a week ago
yesterday. He was arrested at his home
at South Amboy yesterday by detectives
C. A. Oliver and w. A. Howell.
Hendrickson says he knows nothing of
the death of George Kessinger, who was
killed in the riot, and was not present
when the man was murdered while re-
sisting the invasion of the railroad hands.

The Second Park Site.

The report of the discussion on the
County Park sites, which was pub
lished in THE SUNDAY MORNING
NEWS of yesterday, indicates unison
of sentiment as to the propriety OF To-
eating one of tine parks oil the
King estate. Highwood park, which
belongs to that estate, represents about
all there is of historic ground in the
county. Hamilton and Burr fought
their memorable duel there, and at the
foot of its cliff Hendrick Hudson
moored the first vessel that ever made
it's way up the river. These incidents
enhance the interest the natural
beauty of the place commands for it.
The selection of the site for the sec
ond park-for the design seem to be
to construct only two parks-involves
some serious considerations. On gen
eral principles, it would be safe to
say that it is wise to locate the two
sites SO as to please the local senti-
ment of all sections of the county.
The farther apart the two parks can
be located the greater the likelihood
there is. too, of all sections combining
to secure a suitable county drive to
connect them. The Currie estate, the
so~uthernmost of the. selected sites, has
the advantage of being partly in
Bayonne and partly in this city, and
is thus more likely to conciliate con
fiicting local views. That it is situ-
ated on a bluff and that it has a large
frontage on Newark Bay + among
the natural advantages which com
mend it. In this respect it differs
from the Clifford tract, which is
largely meadow land, of such depth as
to make it of doubtful utility for park
purposes.
But there are some drawbacks even
to the Currie estate. The Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company proposes to
run it's line from Waverly to the
water front across the estate, and the
fact that Commissioners have already
N f
been appointed to condemn the right
Of q will make it impossible for the
county to take it to the exclusion OF
the company's invasion. This objec-
ton is scarcely wiped out by the an
nouncement that the company's trains
will be run on a trestle across the ter.
ritory, or the reminder that Philadel.
phia's magnificent Paramount Park is
divided by a long stretch of Pennsyl-
vania Railroad track.
The difficulties of the situation are
such, it a be seen at a glance, as tc
make the final selection OF the second
site by the commission a very delicate
and responsible task.
