The Endless currie Controversy.

There was another hearing this morn
ing in the matter of the consideration of
a portion of the Currie estate. Engineer
Walter Berg, of the New York, Newark
and Western Railroad occupied the stand
all the morning. He testified that there
were other routes just as cheap as the
proposed route through the Currie estate.
He could not say anything about the in
tentions of the company.

She waits until they have transacted their
business and departed. Ladies seldom
rise in Spain to receive q male visitor, and
they rarely accompany him to the door.
A gentleman does not offer to shake a
Spanish Iady's hand. For him to give a
lady (even his wife) his arm when out
walking is looked upon as q decided vlo-
lation of propriety. If a Spaniard says,
when you retire after a visit:-'Thls
house is entirely at your disposal when
ever you may please to favor it," he
wishes you to know that he regards you
as one of the family. If 1.-THE words are net
spoken you can conclude that you are not
welcome to call again.-PhftddetphaG

Brooklyn and New Jersey.

"Judge" William B. Rankin, at the
meeting of the Jeffersonian Kickers
last evening, drew a very.entertaining
comparison between the cities OF
Brooklyn and Jersey City. He spoke
particularly of the pavements, con-
demning those of Jersey City-which
are bad enough, certainly-and ex-
tolling those of Brooklyn which are
a little worse, if we remember rightly.
We are pleased to congratulate His
Honor, Judge Rankin on having
the good fortune which has attended
him on his visits to the City of
Churches. There is just one really
we'll paved street in that place; and
some of the others would not bear
favorable comparison with some
of our Goosetown thorough
fares which are still waiting
for the contractor. The truth is
that Brooklyn will have an enormous
job on it's hands one of these days
in charity, we hope that it will not
be a Job" inthe political sense-when
those a~bominable pavements will have
to be replaced by something better.
AS Brooklyn has such an enormous
area, the expense of repaving will
make that debt to which Judge
Rankin alluded, a matter for some
thing besides envious contemplation
from this side.
1t is with pleasure that we reflect
that the city government, against
which the Judge was SO bitter, took
steps last night in the direction
pointed out by Mayor Cleveland. BY
an earlier beginning we are likely to
escape the fate which seems inevitable
in Brooklyn-the hopeless struggle
with a work too long delayed.
THE Republican anvas is boom
ing. General Grubb has kindly con-
sented to cooperate with the Republi-
can State Committee. There will be a
howl Of ~jubilation in the party news
papers over it, of course. But, poor
Grubb, the cooperation is only too
likely to be all ON one side. 1t is all very
nice now, before the campaign has
taken shape. But wait until the cur
rent sets in strong, and the Demo
cratic ship floats bravely on it
to the haven of victory, and the Re
Al-AYT.F - I--I
and quicksands, what a glorious spec.
tacle 1t will be to see these same State
Committeeman swimming away tc
safety as fast as they can and leaving
poor Grubb clinging to the tiller to &C
down with the wreck alone.

that the Journal did not know where
the woman was. Secondly, there IS

We do not know who is responsible

What he recommends is IL fresh.

The box can then he thrown away
when the meal is done. The good
sense of this will strike every person
given to wholesome living, and it will
also delight the box manufacturers,
who should Immediately get up a
cheap little box especially adapted to
the conveyance of scool luncheons.

The Disappointed.

There are songs enough for the hero,
Who dwells on the height of fame
sing for the disappointed
For those who missed their aim.
| sing with a fearful cadence
For n who stands in the dark,
And knows that his last, best arrow
Has bounded back from the mark.
sing for the breathless runner,
The eager, anxious soul,
Who falls, with his strength exhausted,
Almost in sight of the goal.
For the hearts that break in silence
With a sorrow all unknown,
For those who need companions,
Yet walk their ways alone.
There are songs enough for the lovers
Who share loves tender pain
sing for the one whose passion
Is given all in vain.
For those whose spirit comrades
Have missed them Oh the way,
l sing with Il heart o~'ertlowing
This minor strain to-day.
And l know the solar system
Must somewhere keep in space,
A prize tor that spent runner
Who barely lost the race
For the pain would be imperfect,
Unless it held some sphere,
That paid for the toll and talent
And love that are wasted here.
