There is said to be a pretty lively
struggle going on over the appointment
of Collector of Internal Revenue for this
District, TO succeed Major Samuel KIotz.
. The most prominent candidates named
are ex-senator George Hs Large, of Hun
terdon county, and William r. Williams,
of Newark. Patrick T. Quinn, ex-Comp-
troller, of Newark, and ex-senator VIM.
Stainsby, are also mentioned. We think
Mr.. Large will come out winner, but it is
understood that no change will be made
until the end of the fiscal year, June 30th,
as Secretary Window has expressed the
opinion that tho Government service
might suffer by premature action. Nor

ADemocratIc Indictment.

The repeal Of the local option law after
the people of several counties had already
pronounced in its favor, and others we've
preparing to vote upon it, was wrong
an indignity--for which the party will
doubtless.suffer in the next election. So
the failure to enact u baAot-reforfn law
so warmly expressed by Governor Green,
aud SO generally demanded by the sub
stantial aud respectable people of the
State without respect to party. The man

Another of the Democratic partisan
schemes has come to grief through the
haste and want of skill of its concoctors.
The act making the Newark ward lines

lines provides that the new wards shall

that the latter act does not go into opera.

The failure of the passage OF the Con.
gressional redistricting scheme, by the
late Legislature of this State, is charged
to the account of Congressman Pid-
cock, who feared that his hold upon the
Fourth Congressional District would be
seriously endangered by the changes
which't the bill proposed. Miles Ross also
objected to the way in which the Third
District was re arranged. And these two,
by joining their forces, had worked up
such strong hostility to the bill that the
Committee which had it in charge did
not dare bring it before the House of AS
sembly. So the Congressional District
lines remain unchanged

Prescriptions for Fits.

Though no doctor, have by me some
excellent prescriptions, and as 1 charge
you nothing for them, you cannot grum-
BILE at the price. We are most Of us
subject to fits, and I am subject to them
myself, and / dare say You are subject
to them also. Now, then, for my pre-
scriptions.
For fit of passion, walk out in the
open air. You may speak yonr mind to
the air without hurting anyone, or pro-
claiming yourself to be q simpleton.
For fit of idleness count the tickings
of clock. Do this for one hour and
you will he glad to pull Off your coat
the next and work like negro.
For fit of extravaganza and folly,
go to the workhouse, or speak with the
ragged and wretched inmates of a jail,
and you will be convinced
Who maketh his bed of brian and thorn
Must be content to lie forlorn.
For a fit of ambition, go into the
churchyard, and read the grave stones.
They will tell you the end Of ambition.
For fit Of repining, look about for
the halt and blind, and visit the bed
ridden and afflicted. and they will make
you ashamed OF complaining of your
lighter affections.
For fit of dependency, look on the
good things which have been given you
in the world. He who goes into his
garden to look for cobwebs and spiders
and will find them, whi:e he who looks
for flower may return into his house
with one blooming in his button-hole.

Alcoholism Cured by Kypnotisn.

It is claimed that persons addicted
to the use OF alcoholic liquors can be
entirely cnred by the new French
method of hypnotism. The patient is
hypnotized and then told by the doc
tor that he must never want to drink
again, but must feel disgust for liquor.
This method Of treatment is said to be
successful in every instance. Mrs.
Hannah Whithall Smith writes to Miss
Willard that the cases are wonderful
and have excited so much attention
that French specialists now have q
hospital devoted to the treatment, and

DEAD AND DYING.


Fight to tho Death between Two Ex.
Slorlfrs IN Texas Town.
LlANo, Oct. Son yesterday a des-
perate encounter took place in front oi
the Llano Hotel between W. L. Beeson
and Harry Martin. Both Of the men
were ex.sherias OF this county. The
trouble between them originated in the
last campaign, aud has been steadily
growing worse. On Monday Beeson at
tempted to kill Roberts with shotgun.
Yesterday Roberts met him and asked
him II he was ready 10 make good his
threats OF few days before. Beeson
drew his revolver, and the fight com
menced. Roberta first shot broke Bee.
sons right wrist. Nothing daunted
the latter. brought his left arm TO his aid
and shot four shots, one OF which struck
Roberts In tho side OF the face, the mis-
sile ranging back and down, lodging
under the ear. Roberts fell behind Q
dry goods box, but raised himself and
emptied all the chambers Of his revol-
YER Two bullets struck Beeson in the
body and one in the head, killing him
instantly. Roberts was taken home, but
can not recover. The streets were filled
with people at the time. A horse tied
fifty yards away was killed and another
fatally injured, Both Beeson and Rob-
erts have hosts Of friends, and 1t is fear
cd that the trouble is by no meani
ended.
