@GALn MuARTY IN TRAINING.
Preparing for a Coming Match in a Room
Full of Trophies.

preparing Tor n Coming Matcn IN a Room
Full of Trophies.
seal" McCarty, champion feather
weight boxer Ola poundsl of the world,
commenced training yesterday at the
rooms of the Scottish-American Athletic
Club for a proposed fight with an un-
known, to take place some time in April,
for $500 a side, a purse OF $1,000, and the
Police Gazette diamond belt. The fight
will be to q finish with skin-tight gloves.
McCartY's method of training is a
morning ten-mile walk, followed by a run
across country in the afternoon. Return
ing he takes a rub down with flesh gloves,
then punches the sand bag for three
quarters of an hour, followed by exercises
with dumb bells and Indian clubs for half
an hour.
The bells used are a handsome nickel
plated pair, recently presented him by his
old antagonist, Harry Walton, of Phila-
delphia, whom ''Cal" defeated in a fight
to the finish with skin gloves on January
rs last.
Mr.. Tom Collins and Prof. w. D. Hart
will second Mccarthy in he coming fight.
"Cal'' is a graduate of the Scots, and the
proposed fight is the reigning topic OF con-
versation among all the members.
Among the ornaments which decorate
Hart q McCarty's boxing academy are a
pair of gloves with which McCarty
defeated Morgan on February 20, at
Wilkesbarre, Pa; several pictures of Hart
and McCarty in position; a piece of bark
from the tree behind which Red Nose
Mike shot Mcclure and Flanagan, the
mining paymasters, at W~ilkesbarre, Pa;
an ornamented cup cut from a piece of
anthracite coal by q one-armed admirer of
McCarty, and the blue breaches in which
McCarty has fought twenty-seven battles.
"A novelty is a set of mrffs, or gloves,
which are used as game cocks when being
spared and trained. The Professor
recently introduced this new feature of
sport at the recent tournament of the
Scottish-American Club.

DIR. GORDON used to think that he
had eve seen anything to equal a re-
porter's cheek. But he thinks now
that the customer who nearly broke up
the Board of Health meeting yester-
day by the unceremonious use OF the
Boards telephone while the members
were debating the public business, is
the coolest specimen of his kind he
has ever tackled. -,

Joint NIissionary Meeting.

A joint missionary meeting, consist
ing of the three missionary societies of
the North Baptist Church, was held
in the Sunday school room last night.
The societies are the Young Ladies'
Missionary and Reading Circle, the
Ladies' Missionary Society and the
Children's Missionary Band. The re-
ports of the above societies show that
they are in a state of prosperity. Mrs.
Brewer gave a recitation, and the chill
dren sang and recited selections from
the Bible.

were set to catch thieves there
would be fewer thieves to catch.
If some of the detectives who
incite to crime in order to
detect it were put in prison, and their
hire transferred to the cause of the
prevention of crime, some good might
result. If the character of the average
detective were better known his work
would be better understood.
There is a reform here that will tax
the energies of good men. To remove
the blackmailers and collectors OF
blackmail who cling about the skirts
of an alleged justice will be hard
enough, but to be asked to put up
with the irresponsible, and villainous
agents of a foreign power endeavoring
to stir. up ~bloodshed, and expect
ing to escape the consequences be-
cause of the protection of their EN-
ployer, is too much for Uncle Sans
good nature. Let the sending of such
emissaries be recognized as an I'M
friendly act. When they incite to
crime let them be pursued to convic-
ton. lie Caron's wicked suggestion,
if it had fallen upon a willing mind,
might have been the cause of more
bloodshed than Chicago saw when the
Anarchists arose.

Cartier's Pupils Receive.

Shroyetide was celebrated by the
pupils of Carriers Dancing Academy
by a reception at Crescent Hall, Tues
day evening. Anumber of quaint and
intricate dances were executed by the
little ones of the school. The opening
march was admirably led by little
Master Harry Ames and Miss Mabel
Carnes. The march was followed by
the diagonal quadrille; the baby
polka, the caprice, the Berlin, the
Duchess, and the German dances
being conspicuous by their absence
or the ordinary order of dance.
In these numbers the graceful dancing
of Masters Wallace Pyle, Archie Doug
lass, William Mittler, Stephen Lewis,
and Misses Lizzie Freleigh, Florence
Muller, Addie Hill and Mabel Carnes
deserves especial mention. The sec
ond part of the programme was
danced by the older pupils and their
friends. Prominent among these
were Mr.. and Mrs. Hill, Mr.. and Mrs.
Mettler, Mr.. and Mrs. Freleigh, DIR.
Pyle, Mr.. and Mrs. Stubervoll, Mr.. and
Mrs. Reid, Carrie Romayne, Mr.. and

will do the country a service-which is
more than it has any reason to expect

our Prosperous Banks.


THE statements of the four National
Banks in Jersey City, which appear in
our columns from day to day, reflect
the business prosperity of the city.
Altogether they have on deposit in
their vaults close on to eight millions
of dollars of the moneys of u citizeus
and corporations. The distribution of
this vast aggregation of wealth be-
tween the several institutions is shown
in the following table,
First National. 81, 991 ,6S3 93
second NauonaI-. ..-.............. l,oOL 1893 20
Third National. 25l,333 60
Hudson County National. ............ 1,16s,S4s 81
Total 81, 9s5, a1s 80
That the First National shows the
largest line of deposits, is due in a
measure to the fact that it is the Oldest
of the four repositories. The Third
National Bank was only recently
organized, but it shows a healthy
increase of The Second
National and the Hudson County
Banks exceed in deposits the average
of the repositories in the State. 1t is
very evident that all of the four banks
in the city enjoy the fullest confidence

Not to Detect. but to Breed Crime.

The letter which that remarkable
scoundrel, LIE Caron, wrote to Mr..
Powderly at the time of the Missouri
Pacific railroad strike is a strange
document to be issued by a paid agent
of England against the peace and Sc
curity of a friendly country. LIE Caron
directly melted to violence, and indi-
rectly to murder. He offered to fur
nish explosives to blow up the entire
line of the Missouri Pacific railroad if
Mr.. Powderly would give him a list
of men who could be trusted to
handle it.
OF course, LIE Caron would never
have furnished the dynamite; he
would have sold the list of names to
the highest bidder and thus subserved
the ends of justice, according to his
idea of such things. His dynamite
suggestion did no harm, but that is
not to his credit. Let Mr.. Powderly
have it. Mr.. Powderly is not without
his faults, but there is nc dynamite in
on his conscience, to the best of our
knowledge and belief. He paid no at
tention to lie Caron's infamous letter.
But suppose the matter had resulted
differently. If Mr.. Powderly had said
to himself, This dynamite scheme is
a good one, but l won't trust LIE Caronl
with it. I'll run the explosion cam
paign myself" then the affair would
have passed wholly out of lie Caron's
hands. He would have been RESPONSE
BILE for loss of property, and almost
certainly of life, which he could
neither prevent nor foresee. Whether
Lie Caron was really responsible for
any of the violence that did occur in
connection with that strike we do not
know, but it is fair to suppose that he
did not wholly escape such guilt dur
ing the twenty years of his ~disgraceful
career in this country.
1t would be interesting to know who
was back of that letter to MI. Pow
derby. Was the English government
cognizant of it? If so, it was an
u~nfriendly act, and the retaining of
such an agent in the country after
wards was a ena and an insult.
How many. more such wretches are
lurking here now, paid by England,
and given a rowing commission to stir
up as much crime as they see fit? We
would be glad to know.
L.
This whole detective business is
being very much overdone. From the
petty excise officer who begs in pite-
GUS tones for a drink of liquor in order
that he may arrest the nan who gives
it to him, up to the dangerous crimi-
mails who figured as detectives in the
late strike of railroad men on the c.,
b. and O., there is a regular series of
men who stir up more crime than they
detect. In criminal cases it is not UNI
usual to exclude evidence obtained in
a manner subversive of justice, but
there is a great deal of such evidence
that is not excluded. If fewer thieves
