to term, a toast meeting, and nearly two
hundred Of their friends gathered IN the
High School assembly room to listen TO o
discussion of the question, RESOLVED,
That the Alpha Sigma Society Is benefit
to the High School, - after which picked
mersDers of the society responded to yari-
Gus toasts. The question was argued by
Enoch w. Perry T. M, and George
Flack, r. f., on the affirmative, and Ed

on the negative. The judges naturally
decided In favor of the affirmative, as it
did not require very strong arguments to
induce them to believe that the Alpha

of the cleyerest and pretties young ladies
connected with the High School, is OF
especial benefit to the institution.

TO DIVIDE THE COUNTY.
THAT'S WHAT 4 YOTE FOR KERN'S
CANDIDATES MEAN.


An Unholy Combination Hudson
Kernites to Help Repeal the Jersey
City Charter-Jersey City Kernites to
Help Split Hudson County.
sit seems to me-" said well known
Jersey City Democrat yesterday, that
the big issue in the pending local cam
paign has been lost sight of in the excite
ment of the hour.
Has it occurred to you-do you know,
rather-that vote for Kern or anyone of
the kicking Democratic Assembly candi-
dates is a vote for division of the coun-
typ Pagan is two-countv man
and Usher since his nomination has writ
ten a letter pledging himself to the same
scheme. But it may be news that all Of
Kern's candidates here in Jersey City as
well as those in Hoboken and North
Hudson, are necessarily pledged to its
'sAow do you ma ke that out?' asked.
Here is the explanation: The new
County Committee, as the Kickers call
themselves, represents two elements of
discomfort in this county.
s'In North Hudson it represents the
fellows who cannot achieve office in this
county and who hope to get into place II
that section of the county can be set off
by itself.
Here in Jersey City it represents the
crowd that lost Office by the adoption of
the new charter. They made union of
the two causes, and it follows as q mat
ter of course that the basis of the
union is the understanding that each
shall aid the other in achieving its pur-
pose. The North Hudson element
are to aid the Jersey City malcontents
in oyerturning the charter-in bringing
about its repeal by the next Legislaturel
The Jersey City element is by the very
conditions of the union forced in return
to aid the two-county men in bringing
about division of the county.
''This, it seems to me, is very serious
aspect of the campaign as far as Jersey
City is concerned. I do not believe that
there is man in the city who fayors the
destruction of the county by dividing it.
But a vote for Kern or for any of his
crowd is, it is very apparent, a vote for
that scheme ~

found that new silk dress, for which
she paid 500 on Wednesday, was missing.
Chief Murphy detailed Detective Nc
Bride to the case and the detective found
the dress in Meyers pawn shop, where it
had been pawned for $5.
While he was there John Gray, of No.

deem the garment. Mcbride arrested
