Some of the residents of Weehawken
complain that the Hoboken Land and
Improvement Company are allowed
to do just what they please in the
town. They are just at present busily
engaged in ripping up the macadam-
lied pavement of the Boulevard for
the purpose of laying gas mains, and
there is much grumbling thereat.
The boulevard is the handsomest road
in the county, and one side of it has
been practically ruined by the digging
of the trench. The property owners
would like to know who gave permits

 An Odessa correspondent of the London Standard writes: The inoculation performed last year at the Odessa Bacteriological station against bites from rabid animals show re- suits no less satisfactory than those of the preceding year. The number of persons in- oculated was 454. Of those 39S were bitten by rabid dogs, 38 by cats, 2 by wolves, 3 by a man suffering from hydropaobia, 1 by 8 rabid COW, and another by wild boar. Six persons underwent inoculation simply as 8 preventive measure. The patients actually bitten by rabid animals may be divided into three classes: First the dangerously wounded, that is, persons bitten on the head, face or arms; of these there were S9 Of the second class, the slightly wounded there were 20S, and in the third cateeoy, of those who had received bites through Vheir clothing, there fere 155. In only A cut of the total 454 cases treated was the actual presence of rabies in the animals innioting the bites not conclusively proved. Two pa- tients died after the inoculatory course pre- scribed, but both those cases belonged to the dangerously wounded class; one of these pa- tients being dreadfully lacsrated about the head by rabid wolf. Altogether six pa- tients died during or after the inoculation. Of seven persons bitten by the same rabid wolf one suecnmbed. Of A persons bitten by other rabid animals five died, which gives fatal percentage ot only II. Of these four were dangerous cases. Altogether of 82 dan gerously wounded patients four died, show ing mortality of 1.048 per cent. In the 15s who were bitten through the clothes there was no fatal case.

TWO nELATRD GENTLEMEN.

TWO BELATED GENTLEmEN.
 Some remarks which were made by two eminent southernsrs on Washington's birth day are attracting attention. At the annual reunion and banquet of the Maryland ''Soci- sty of the Army and Navy of the Confeder- ate States" at Baltimore General Thomas L. Rosser said that the South yielded in 1865 only to starvation, and added that it "was the fact and still is the fact that a southern gentleman can whip 6 Puritanical Yankee every time." He continued: "And am prepared to convince poor old sour, dserspit, politically disappointed, bloodthirsty Sher- man and the blatant, big-mouthed Foraker that this declaration is absolutely true" He also said: am tired of Gettysburg reunions and "blue and gray" love feasts which poli- ticians are holding, while old Sherman threatens in his ''old shady stories" and oth- CTS dare to call the loyal citizens of the South "traitors." I feel that am and believe that every brave Confederate soldier living to day is more loyal to the constitutional govern ment of the United States than are the rank and file of the Grand Army of the Repub- lie.
 
 society" on the same day Governor Fitz Hugh Lee of Virginia made an oration, in the course of which he said: We desire the progress of the black race. We have taken good care of it in the South. We have pros vided schools and asylums for the colored people. But when it becomes question as to whether the black shall rule us we say no. We want white mans government if we are to have peace and harmony in the South. To any of you who have capital invested in the South I say if you want returns for your investments @ white mans government alone insures them to you. I know that you do not desire to see any disturbance in the South, but if the time arrives when an attempt is made by the blacks to dominate us shall receive the United States troops with open arms. We do not court race war. We do contend that as white man founded this gov- ernment white men shall rule it.
 These two men are behind the times. It is rather late in the day to boast of southern and the progress of the black race cannot be stopped. Such talk as that quoted above only serves to make it's authors ridiculous.

CZUKER1TE, OR MINERAL WAX. Its discovery, Abundance, Important
 Uses and Value.

From Harpers Weekly.l
 A prospector among the mountains of Utah four years ago found in one of the numerous bar rooms of little mining town small conical object of dark color which the pro- prietor of the dram shop used as a paper weight. It looked like piece of gutta per cha, yielded slightly to the pressure of the thumb nail, and possessed most resinous flavor and smell. From it's shape it had evil dently been moulded in beer glass. "What Is its'' asked the visitor, after examining it curiously. Chewing gum," sententiously replied the bar tender: "lots of it back here in the hills" The prospector had
 s'struck pay dirt" when he little expected 1t,
 for the "chewing gum" was no less impor- tant subject than ozoksrits, or mineral
 wax, commercially known as cerssin, and
 up to that time properly believed to exist
 only in the Austrian province of Galicia.
 The owner of the paper-weight was easily
 persuaded to conduct the prospsctor to the tchewing gum" deposits, although his eon- tempt for "tsnderfeot" who would pass by minerals of established value to look for 'shewing gum" was apparent. Jacob Wal- lace of New York found the mineral crop ping out on the mountain sides, apparently forced from it's hiding places by the i'm nense weight upon it, and tests of the various specimens gathered on the suface and by sinking shafts showed that it was undoubtedly ozokerite in its purest natural form MT. Wallace at once had the region thoroughly explored and surveyed, and un- der the mineral and desert land acts pre- empted about eight square miles of terri tory, on the Denver and Rio Grande rail- road, IA miles east of Salt Lake City. The White river runs through the property, and the principle ozskerite deposits are found | in the Wasatch and Uintah mountains. The inhabitants of the sparsly settled re- zion chewed the wax, the masticstory sat I isfaction derived being much the same as that obtained by working over piece oi spruce gum, while the Denver and Rie Grande railroad engineers, having learned | its brightening properties, polished theil I locomotives with it till they shone like bur l nished steel and brass, but to these two uses | was the American mineral confined. l While the Utah explorations were proceed | ing Richard J. Kroupa, chemist of recog | pized reputation, was despatched to Europe
 to learn everything he could about the min | ing, refining, and practical uses of ozokeri.e | This task was not an easy one, the secrecy
 reserved in the ozokerite districts nelng se

THE BEST mAN,S BLUNDER. A Chicago Lawyer Gets Himself Into a
 ssPrettY P1ckIe.'s

From the Chicago Tribune A we'll know lawyer made the trip from
 Chicago to Washington lately to act as best
 man at the wedding of William Duff Hay nie and Miss Thomas. He left for Chicago immediately after the ceremony, deciding that marriage was failure, and this was the reason:
 The wedding was to take place in Calvary Baptist Church at noon. Getting in late the night before he had not seen the bride, nor did he call the next morning. At the appointed time he was with his friend in
 the vestry cheering him up. Thinking it was I about time for the bridal party te appear he hurried around to the front of the church to watch for them and give the signal to the waiting groom. He waited what seemed to him g long time, and was just about thinking for the third time how slow Wash. ington people were when he heard the groom's voice saying: 'fnto the carriage with us quick before any one sees you," and, looking around, he saw the brides laughing face, He took in the situation in moment, and was willing to treat the whole world if it didn't get out. This was the tale he heard in .he carriage. Said the groom:
 fI was waiting for you to come back when one of the ushers stuck his head in the door and said Come quick; they are all here.' I looked in and there stood the bride, the maid of honor, the ushers, and the minister, and back of them were crowds to meet them. I could hardly move when I saw the state of affairs. But gathered courage, walked in, and the ceremony pro- ceeded without best man. All went well until the ring part. The minister asked for it. I felt in my pocket, and then as the horrible thought came, I gasped out: D. has got the ring Quick as a flash the bride slipped from her finger ring that she had borrowed to wear for luck, and at last we were married"
 The Chicago lawyer confessed that the bridal party must have passed him unrecog- nized, and only asked that he might be let go home in peace without meeting the ush- CTS.
 Garelessness at Safety Deposit Vaults.
 [From The Washington Pestl.
 "Talk about the carelessness of the late Thomas Nichol with money and bonds,' said an attache of the Safe Deposit. "He is not the only one afflicted in that way. Peo- pie have boxes in the Safe Deposit take them out, cut off their coupons, relock and replace their boxes and leave bonds to large amount in the little inclosures provided for them to handle their deposits. In one safe deposit company nearly half million dollars of negotiable bonds have been thus left by depositors and found and held for them by the officers of the institution. In one instance Washington citizenieft $60,- 900 worth of negotiable paper in the in closure after he had replaced his box in the safe. Gases of this sort are so frequent that the officers examine the inclosures after ev- cry person has had his box open. The amount thus left behind in all the safe de- posit companies of the United States is in the aggregate vast one."

and a specialist in manufacturing of
fine hand made goods, has proved
himself finished workman, is now
branching out and charging his bust

before doing so desires to dispose of as
much of his present stock as is posi-
BILE to do. He will for the next thirty
days sell all goods at a large discount
to make room for new fixtures, and
when finished, will be second to none.
His place of business is opposite the

THE SENATE AND THE PRESS.

THE SENATE AND THE PRESS.
The rejection of Murat Halstead
by the senate, for confirmation as
minister to Germany has stirred up
the whole United States. 1t seems to
have precipitated fight between the
press and the American House of
Lords which is at least not very cred
liable. The Cincinnati Gazette in an
article that disavows all responsibility
on the part of Mr.. Halstead therefor
most caustically belabOrs the senate,
particularly the republican members
for their action. 1t is very, annoying
letter to say the least, and threatens
to make the power of the paper felt in
the ensuing elections in that state.
The Gazette's article affirms the exist
ence of the facts charged by Murat
Halstead, in the corrupt use of money
to secure Payne's election to the
United States senate and argues that
unless those who defended Payne
from investigation were tarred
with the same stick they had no
interest in preventing the investiga-
ton and of right should have, as con-
SENATORS of pure senate, aided Mr.
Halstead in securing such investiga-
ton. The New Orleans Times Demo-
crat, comedies the iniquity of the cleo
lion of Payne and joins its influence
to that of the Louisville Courier Jour-
nal in denouncing the action of the
democratic senators in the matter.
The Louisville Journal is of opinion
that the democratic senators, particu-
larry from the south, missed their
golden opportunity Of exercising q
forgiveness which cuts worse than a
two edged sword, in refusing to rally
