a far less efficient man. The appoint

A Newspaper Mans Ideal Sketch of al
Ideal Sunday Morning Newspaper.
[FSom the Camden Sunday ReUieoc.l
DEAR EDIToR:-I hear that you are
about starting a Sunday newspaper,
and hope it is SO. / like a Sunday
paper because it is wicked to read one,
and we all love to be just a little
wicked, and a nice four page paper
only one-sixth part as large as those OF
the metropolises and therefore but one
sixth as wicked-is just too awfully
lovely for anything.
OF ourse YOU would feel thankful
for advise in regard to the conducting
of your new enterprise, and as | have
never been in any way connected with
a newspaper factory, | feel myself
competent to offer wise counsel in that
direction-counsel that will be accept
able and useful because it is unhack-
neyed and not self-worn.
You should strive to cater to the
taste of all classes, and to so write as
to have your opinions in harmony
with those of each of your readers;
you will find the endeavor to do this if
not a useful, at least an active employ
ment, SO much so that Satan will find
very little mischief for your idle
hands to do"
You should, above all things, keep
your paper pure. Not too awful pure
for people, as a rule, don't object to a
little seasoning in their literary food, a
little gossip, such as lit is said etc,
etc; provided, the saying is of their
neighbors, especially II they are good
looking and rich, and are willing to
loan their silver and piano and such
trif1es when you wish to give a party,
Dr. a dollar or two when you are non
c0mpoScGSbUs.
You should make a specially of
personal notices. Nothing SO tickles
the average citizen, male or female, as
q newspaper notice, a two-line men
ton, such as 1.-THE beautiful Miss
Spriggins is visiting her accomplished
friend Miss Sniggins" will start the
Sniggins and Spriggins families out on
paper buing rampage beautiful to be-
hold, and testifying in word and act
to the mighty power of the press.
A religious column is advisable. 1t
gives unco good people an excuse for
reading that part of the paper and an
opportunity to take a toboggan slide
over the line into the more worldly
domain of base and other kinds of
balls.
You had better not NEEDLE with
fashions. Any young miss or old
granny can give you seventeen points
and beat you twelve out of thirty
at that game. So when you think Of
writing fashion articles, take my adj
vice and don't! and keep don'ting.
/ have heaps more of advice to offer
on cheap and easy terms, but sufficient
unto the day is the evil hereof.

Story of the Prison Scene in "Kerry
Cow"
Mr.. Joseph Murphy, who plays at
the Academy of Music in this city next
week in Kerry Cow tells an inter
esting story of the prison scene in that
play where the Tailor finds a dummy
instead of his prisoner. 1t was sug-
gested to Mr.. Murphy by the account
of a wonderful escape from the Jail in
Baltimore.
The prisoner was a Frenchman, who
had already served thirteen years OF a
fourteen years sentence. At first
there was nothing unusual in his con
duct, but later he began to assume ec-
centricities. He let his hair grow long
over his forehead like a bang; he
scooped out the soft portion of his
bread and saved it along with all the
scraps OF paper which he could collect.
III the prisoners received checks as
y entered their cells at night, and
ID obliged to pass them to the
-.4eper when he made his rounds. The
F~renchman, when he passed his out,
always leaned in a peculiarly mani
mate way against the bars of his door,

fingers, without moving his hand
Meanwhile he made a hole in the wall
of his cell, and also constructed a face
like his own from the bread, which he
moulded and painted. One night
he cut his bang off and
stuck it upon @ dummy made of bed
clothes, and bearing the false face and
an image of the Frenchman's hand in

Mr.. Murphy based his scene on this
changed. The scene always takes
immensely.
Corinne at Jacobs.
Corinne will visit Hoboken next
week. No actor or actress that has
visited this city this season has been
heralded with such blowing of
trumpets. Corinne deserves all the
praise she receives. No longer an in
FAINT prodigy, but a well developed,
piquant and gay young woman, she
has something of the vivacity of Lolita,
a touch of the abandon of Nelly Nc
Henry, and a good deal of the stage
tact of Annie Pixley.
Her performance is buoyant, bub-
bling over with merriment. She
dances as if it was a pleasure, and sings
in a melodious voice, with a facial ex-
preston that is very fetching. Her
sailor song, ''They All Love Jack, y is
her prettiest musical effort. Assisting
Corinne are a host of comedians rang

Congressional Re-districting.

Congressional Re-districting. e
1t is a very bad business indeed
that the Congressional Re-districting
bill should have failed topass through
the Legislature. The law which pre-
walls is the result of INSCRIPTIONS re-
publican grasping, and it practically
DISTINGUISHES thousands of voters, so
far as national affairs are concerned.
The Democratic party has done
much this year to repair the evil
effects of Republican rule. 1t is a
pity this matter should have been
overlooked. A little too much atten-
ton to local interests, a little too much
regard to the desires of individuals
and sections, these are the main sins
of the democratic majority, and it is
through these that this important
matter has been neglected.

Ten years ago MISS Nettle Green, OF

Her husband dying not long after, she
repeated the journey to the altar with
a DIR. Brown, of Chicago. He died

years mourning she became Mrs. Grey.
But she was doomed to misfortune
with her husbands, and soon lost Grey
also. Since then she has been married
twice, first to a Mr.. White and then to
a Mr.. Green. She is a widow today,
and says she will make no more ven
