The Free Band Concord.

The Tabernacle Band filed the hot and
muggy air of Van Worst Park and its
vicinity with palpitating harmony last
evening, and crowds attended to enjoy.
Aside from the palpitation above re-
ferred to there is a great deal of
similar movement in the hearts of the
young people who attend. It's a great
place for young lovers who stand in the
outer ring of spectators, where the cleo
trio light is not too strong, and enjoy the
innocent delight of sympathy when the
band plays a waltz or a love song.
Older people stand nearer, and children
are everywhere. The free concert gives
pleasure to a great number, and profit,
too; for it is better to get a breath
of air in the park than to
stay in the house these warm
evenings. Also, the concert is a counter
attraction to the ice cream resort and
music is more digestible for girls and
cheaper for young men than ice cream at
ten cents a Dlate.

A Gubernatoria1 Possibility.
From the ca Jour


A Trenton correspondent, who may
be old friend the erstwhile
champion liar of New Jersey,
sends to the Chicago Tribune a
story that Clinton B. Fisk
has definitely abandoned the third
party and gone over to the Repub-
licans.
1t is an open secret that last spring
Sewell and Fisk we're in negotiation
for the delivery of the prohibition
vote in blocks of five, the Sunday
schools and churches to be worked
under a special arrangement with the
aid of Foster and Pangborn and the
republican praying band. Fisk was
unable to deliver the goods as the
sequel showed, and he was not on
hand when the third party met in con-
vention at Asbury Park.
1t is obvious that Fisk had personal
reasons in treating with Sewell to
compromise the men who trusted him
with the leadership of their cause. II
it is true that he has gone back to the
Republican party it Is for the same
reasons. 1t Is a question of personal
advantage. What has Fisk to expect
at the hands of the Sewell managers9
The party wants a candidate for
Governor who can put up a good
sized doodle" and who has some new
elements of strength. Fisk got about
twenty thousand votes when he ran as
Prohibition candidate for Governor in
1886. How many of these voters would
support him In 1889 on a Republican
ticket?
According to republican reckoning
il he could command one-half this
vote he would be elected. He would
do admirably, too, in working the
| Sunday schools and churches. Nc
man more unctious than he, and none
more popular with that class that il
ever ready to fall down and worship 8
professedly pious rich man.
Rich, pious, atfable, pliable, polite,
admired by the ladies and with a sup
posed personal following in the THIRD
| party, Fisk has strong recommends
| lions for Boss Sewell. Who know.
I but at the last moment the Boss viii
pass the word among his lieutenants
to make Fisk the G~ubernatoria
nominee.

But perhaps General Fisk excludes

The Worlds Celebration.
The Dover Inden says

The Dover EldeD says
Wear glad to see New York city is at last wax
ing up, and its people pushing the proposeu
Worlds Fair there in 1892. 1t Is the right place
to hold such a fair In honor of the 400th anniver-
sary of Columbus's discovery of America, and the
great Metropolis has plenty of moneyed men to
give the enterprise the kind of backing it needs.
The time is getting short to formulat the plans,
locate the site and put up the immense buildings.
Hence prompt and united action is needed by the
Gothamites to make it the success it should be.
Dover is not as big as Chicago or
Philadelphia, but the IpdeG shows a
breadth of view and a patriotic spirit
which some of the giant cities might
we'll emulate.
Now that New York has taken the
matter in hand, we observe, the
claims of other places are no longer
heard. The fitness of things is so SUI
premely fulfilled in the location of the
Worlds Fair in New York that the
slightest active movement to locate it
there kills competition.
Philadelphia has had her turn.
Chicago is neither old nor rich
enough. Baltimore and Washington
fail below the standard of size, and SO
on, by a process of elimination, w
find that New York stands alone in
the sight of the world as the place
where all the states and all the ma
tions shall meet to celebrate the great
est event since the Christian era
began.
But, in conceding all this, it must
be insisted that neither the celebra-
ton, nor the great Worlds Exhibition
which is to adorn it belongs in any
sense to New York more than to any
other city on the American con-
tinent; hardly more than any
other city In the world. 1t is New
York's high privilege to be chosen as
the theatre of this great festival, and
to her citizens, of course, the great
work of organization will largely be
confided. Doubtless, too, her wealth
win be lavishly given to help the
great occasion, but that will only be
because she will reap a rich harvest in
return tor her liberality.
But these things are all secondary.
In its great central idea, the thing is
not New York's, and the sooner the pub.
lie ceases to identify it with that city,
the sooner will the last traces of
-
jealousy and disappointment disap-
pear. But the change does not de-
pend upon New York alone. The
sooner the other cities come forward
and take active part in the undertake
ing, the more speedily will the local
aspect disappear, and the more surely
will the universal character of the en-
terprise be established.
OF course, New York has the cordial
cooperation and sympathy of New
Jersey, for we share in all the benefits
she enjoys; but we hope the great
cities of East, West and South will
at once wheel into line, and send the
great project booming along to
triumph.

when Should the Babies sleepe
What strange prejudice can have
begot the belief in the necessity OF
sending our children to bed just when
the evenings become pleasantly cool,
when flowers breathe their sweetest
perfume, and fawns and young rab-
bits leave the shadow of the thickets
to play on the moonlit mountain
meadows? The alamedas or public
parks of the Spanish American cities
+ almost abandoned during Il
hottest hours of the afternoon, but
about sunset ice cream vendors arrive
with their portable confectionerles,
musicians tune up their Instruments,
troop after troop of mounted pleasure
seekers gallop down the principal We
nue., and half an hour after the whole
park swarms with promenaders and
romping children enjoying the balmy
night with utter disregard of dew and
damp grass.
AT half-past ten the youngsters of
eight or nine years are still met in
bevies, chasing lightning bugs and
running aces through grass and bush
and not only taking care OF them
selves, but encouraging their still
younger playmates to join in their
sports, and avoid the promenade
roads on account of the thick clouds
of tobacco smoke surrounding every
group of adults. Nevertheless, those
young night jewellers are up with the
sun, the cool of the morning being too
precious to be lost in sleep, but make
up for a deficit of rest by q long siesta,
an afternoon nap of two or three
hours. -HaTpeg'S Bazaar.

A Ghost in the Photo.

Saturday afternoon r. Cash, master
of the Sirehall board school, and E.
r. Pringie, solicitor, were taking
photographs of the shipping at the
SPOT where the Old Mills once stood
and still known by that name. In the
evening, however, while developing
this particular plate in the derk room
at his own house-Mr. Pringle being
still in his company-he was perfectly
astounded by an appearance which
he had neyer seen when taking the
photograph and for which he could in
no way account. On completing the
development there was plainly re-
vealed in the foreground of the pic
ture the figure of a woman apparently
floating upright in the water, as it IS
declared that drowned bodies some
times will appear after immersion for
a length of time. II can not in the
least explain how it got there, said
Mr.. Cash, when interviewed Monday,
''but there is the negative and you
can see for yourself
And it can only be said that the wo-
man is Enthusiastically shown. 1t is no
shadowy likeness, difficult to detect,
mol does it require pointing out be-
fore the lines can be traced, as with
the puzzle pictures so commonly seen.
The face and head are clearly out
lined; the arms are hanging straight
by the side of the body, which is clad
IN ordinary female attire and is visi-
BILE to the waist, and the portrait gen.
orally appears to be that Of tall and
