The Appeal of Legislators.


If anything ever was comic, without
wanting to be so, it is the address of
the republican members Of the New
Jersey Legislature, just adjourned, to
President Harrison.
The substance of the ssappear of our
hungry adjourned Legislators" to the
President, who is yet in session, is that
he should see and pity and help them
in their sorry plight.
The wicked Democrats have despoil-
ed them of the offices of the State.
which the good Republicans had only
been able to steal for one short year.
1t is sad indeed that democrats
should officer a democratic State.
Majorities will make Governors, while
gerrymanders may make Legislatures.
And then, the poor ex-legislators
plead to their great ofice-giver at
Washington:-"The courts of New
Jersey have been made solidly demo-
cratic
The beggars probably thought that
because republicans have packed the
United States Courts with their own
partisans, and never appointed a
single democratic Judge in twenty-five
wears, therefore their President would
readily believe this stuff.
But every beggar of them knew all
the while that Jonathan Dixon was
appointed Supreme Judge, and Henry
G. Pitney Vice-C Chancellor, this very
winter. And the District Court
Judges Of the State we're left eight

CORONER BRACKNER TALKS.

He Writes to s'The Jersey City News"
That He Has Been Maligned.
To the Editor of The Jersey City NeaUs:-
The reporter of the EUening Journal,
at the inquest of the accidental shooting
of Frank Brawler by John Dean, held at
Bergen Hall, last Monday evening, said
that it was very evident that l either did
not understand my duties or paid little
attention to the law. The ame paper
subsequently suggested editorially that
my methods should be Investigated.
| have only to say, in reference to the
ing in accordance with Prosecutor Win
fields views. He limited to me that it
would be wise to hold the witnesses and
the accused, no matter what the verdict
might be, if there should be the least
shadow of evidence to hold them. His
words were:-
tI am tired of these accidents resulting
from the careless handling of firearms,
and if | had my way l would send all the
accused parties to State Prison for ten
years"
I did not have any interview with Pros
ecutor Winfield the next morning, as
stated In the Journal; and that he ordered
their discharge is false. On reviewing the
testimony / saw there was no evidence on
which to hold them and ordered their
discharge myself.
Assistant Prosecutor Noonan sent a po-
liceman to my Office the nextmorning and
informed me that he desired to see me. /
was told by him that he had received a
telephone message from Winfield ordering
him to rearrest these same parties whom
/ had let go. | understand that Prose
cutor Winfield was ~displeased at my
action in discharging them. They would
have been rearrested if the ship on which
they belonged HAD not sailed.

Yesterday was the SEVENTEEN birthday
Of Mr.. G. P. Howell, the real estate broker

friends would be a pleasant celebration of
the event. Last night his handsome resi-
dence, at No; 500 Pavonia avenue. pre-
sented a brilliant scene, as many friends
gathered to offer their congratulations to
Mr.. Howell.
The parlors were superbly decorated
with choice plants and lovely flowers.

Sensationalisrn

What a strange thing the succession
of sensations is. They tread upon
each others heels. In England We
have the sugar frauds following
fast upon the Whitechapel muir.
ders. The Pigott forgeries come
next in order. The public pulse
has hardly settled down when
the Maybrick husband poisoning
case thrills the lovers of the
horrible. Yesterday furnished a new
and ghastly murder in the heart Of
London to renew the agitation of the
British public.
Besides participating in these sen,
Stations we Americans furnish not a
few of our own, and fine fat ones they
are. Bank embellishments count for
nothing nowadays; but the capacity
of the country for novelty cannot be
overtaxed.
The Cronin tragedy is one that
Paris or st. Petersburg might envy as
a historical sensation; but even it falls
into %obscurity in presence of the
calamity at Johnstown. 1t almost
seems as if sensation bred sensation,
or as If some fiendish caterer to the
public palate was constantly at work
to furnish new excitements day by
day.
AT any rate the public likes the SEN
Stations, and eagerly watches out for
them. The newspapers are blamed If
nothing wicked or calamitous trans
pires to give them that thrilling inter-
est which the general taste requires.
We do not find that the reforming
spirits who set their faces against this
craving for sensations make any sensi-
BILE progress in the realization of their
theories. There is a cord in the uni
versal heart which ALWAYS responds to
the note of strong emotion, and the
generation is yet undreamt OF that can
quiet its vibrations.
VIZ venture to suggest, too, that as
much harm as good might be done by
the suppression of the sensational,
that is to say, in fact, the emotional
phases of the intelligence spread
among the public about passing
events. We r acquainted with all the
stock arguments that may be used re-
garding the cheapening of strong feel
ing, the creation of morbid instincts
and the like. But on the other hand,
we connot help rejecting upon the
broader and more intense conceptions
of existence and Of the universe that
accrue from these boldly drawn and
highly colored pictures furnished by
the modern press, and now the
chief mental food of half the ety.

Some Elegant Gowns Tha Were admired

Some Elegant Gowns That Were Admired
by His Highness of Wales.
From the Ne,o York Evening Post.
A very elegant dinner, with concert
following, was given in London re
Gently by Lady de Grey to the Prince
and Princess of Wales. A lady writing
to a friend in America says that the
Princess set the example of wearing
square cut bodice and elbow sleeves,
and all the other lady guests did the
same. The Princess dress was OF
white and gold satin brocade, draped
with palest pink crepe de Chine, with
ornaments of diamonds and pearls.
The beautiful Lady Dudley was at
tired in a very effective gown of pale
silver corded silk, with diamond but
tons and a primrose silk sash arranged
a la Directoire.
At a dinner and concert given by
the wealthy Mrs. Mackay to the Prince
and Princess of Wales, Mrs. Mackay
wore a Paris-made dress designed by
herself. 1t was a magnolia-white
satin with an embroidered flower
fringe all around the foot of the skirt,
representing lilies of the valley and
their green leaves. This embroid-
cry was carried up the left side
of the dress to the waist, where
it was completed by a cluster
of real lilies OF the valley put on
the evening of the dinner. The din
ner table was all in white and gold
orchids, and Marechal Neil roses, and
the reception room was decked to cor
respond. 1t is reported that the songs
after the repast were so beautiful, the
music furnished SO fine, the playing so
amusing, that his Royal Highness
stayed until the very end. The much
loved hostess received many compli-
ments upon the rare beauty of her
surroundings and the exceptional
taste and elegance shown in the en-
tire entertainment. In the court room
was a complete change of color, the
flowers changing from deep bronze
through deep red to the palest cream.
In the middle of the drawingroom
stood a magnificent palm which
touched the ceiling, and whose spread
ing leaves stretched over a number of
chairs and settees grouped under it.
The room in which the Prince dined
was decorated in scarlet and white,
the flowers being bright imantophil-
lums and white lilac.

ilized world. We do not really
find that the vast majority
of people are worse for the modern
cult of emotional excitation, and We
do find that on occasions like the pres
ent they respond to the touch
of nature, with a ready sympathy
which assuredly was not surpassed in
the ''simple or virtuous" times Of
Greece or Rome. or ''Merrie" Eng
land, or the old Colonial settlements.
Thus when our own citizens met at
the Academy of Music, last night,
there was no sign that they were men
of jaded imagination or exhausted
sensibilities. 1t was evident that the
extent of the calamity had been COM
pretended with a breadth and clear
ness born of habitual contemplation
of the great workings of the world.
1t was plain that the appeal OF the
desolate valley Of the Connemaugh
kindled hearts, already well warmed
by the feeling of the universal brother
hood of man.
The charge that elaborate news
paper reporting, by fostering sensa-
tionalism has killed imagination and
feeling is amply refuted by the entire
country in the noble spontanety of its
response to the anguished cry for re-
lief from the land of sorrow.
