THE SCHOOL ELECTION.

A
 It begins to look as If there would really Ite some interest in the school election this year. And 1t is evident, from the attacks th at have been made on the candidates wio sta ud on the free text book platform, that a cert ain kind of small political trickery is to be used against them. We believe 1t will fail, Us it ought to. The only thing the voters ought to consider is whether these candi- dates are fit for the places they are nomin- ated for, and whether they favor a proper and beneficial policy is school matters. No question: has been or will be raised concern ing their ability or character. They are good citizens and we'll able to deal with such mats ters as come before the board of education. They do well, in our opinion, to declare themselves in favor of free text books, and we believe that their platform will meet the approval of a large number of the voters

 Opie P. Read, the Editor of s'The Arkan- saw Traveller" is 8 very big man, with tre- mendously heavy head of long, black, un- kempt hair. One day he was passing the of- fee of 8 well-known hair-restoratlve estab- lishment on State st., Chicago. His partner, Mr. Benham, was with him and said:
 "We ought to get an advertisement out of this establishment"
 Opie looked in and saw family of country people inside.
 "rll get it for you right now, said he, and in he walked. The countryman had just taken off his hat and was showing the manager how bald he was and asking if he thought the hair would ever grow again on his head. Opie walked up to the manager and, putting out his hand, warmly said: "My dear sir, have come long way to thank you in person and to show you what your restorative has done for me-" Here he took off his old black slouch hat and shook out his long and wonderfully | thick, fine hair.
 "There, sir," said he gratefully, ''Iook at ! that, four months ago, you remember, was as bald as that electric lamp up there"
 The manager was little dazed. This was rather more than even he could swals low.
 "What did you do for its" put in the inter ested countryman.
 "Used this restorer-four dozen bottles of it-according to directions.
 The upshot of 1t, was, the countryman took two dozen bottles and went his way.
 ''There," said Opie to his partner, "now you talk business with this man, and guess you'll get pretty good advertisement out of him."
 When the manager learned who Opie was he said:
 "You can put me down for the biggest ad. in your paper and send in your bill when yon please"

 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Your remark that ''the New York Voice is good deal discouraged by the apostscy of James A. Bradley of Asbur5 Park" leads us to note the great difference between modern and ancient inspiration. The apostaoy of Judas Iscariot was dismissed with much less mourning and invective. The simple state ment "that he went to his own place" would have been vastly more effective in portraying Mr. Bradley's "flop" than a column of the "Voice's" choicest language.

 The poppy is being adopted as a railroad flower. It's tendency to make masses of run ming roots makes it valuable on the sides of railroad beds to keep them intact.
 In an address just issued to the voters, the Mississippi Democratic executive committee says that the flag of Caucasian civilization is going to continue to "doat triumphantly" over that commonwealth.
 All the fools are not dead. Benzon, the "Jubilee Plunger," in his recently published book tells a remarkable tale. On his first horse race he lost $s0,oOo. Afterwards his losses were as high as $25,00O week. At cards he has lost as high as $80,000 night. Once he lost $50, 900 in ten minutes, while waiting for train.
 A design for 6 new postage stamp has been prepared by St. Louis printing house and sent broadcast over the country for sp- proval.

Our Country's Champion;' ;'' and on the bottom: Too Big to Be Licked ' Even the school children in Boston some times make slips. One was giving an account of the first inauguration, and said: "The | oath of office was administered to President Washington on the balcony of Federal Hall | L, Dahark ysp C k1n l. of New York" The other, asked about the battle of Lexington, said that "Minute mer were men who wanted everything at min ute's notiee."
 A San Francisco newspaper thinks tha $12, ,000, 900 is yearly "drained" by the Chi nese through various channels from city 0 100000 inhabitants. It figures this way There are 40, 900 Chinese in San Francisco These persons earn at least $1 day each ove and above their board. That is $40,000 day, $1 $1,04o,000 month of twenty-six days and over $12, ,000, ,000 year. Most of thi money, it thinks, goes directly or indirectl to China, never to return.
 A London shoemaker has invented wa te make small people appear tall. The ir vention is an odd and ingenious one. In stead of tacking six inches on to person head, pair of entirely false feet made ( cork are put into the shoes. When tn , wearer gets into them he or she is raised ac eording to the inches of cork. Of course i this invention the original foot is made t combine with the cork one under the leaths in such a manner that the line of demarks tion is not-perceptible.

 Colonel North, "the nitrate king," is back in London, and the stocks of his companies are booming. Some of the new companies that he has foated have had among them dissatisfied stockholders, and on several oc- oasions Colonel North has met their re- proaches by offers to take their stock at its par value, and to allow them 10 per cent. dividends per annum during the time that they have held the shares. Naturally, under such fostering care these shares have com- manded high market price, attended, how ever, with extreme fluctuations, for during the time that the colonel was absent from London they declined on an average more than 90 per cent, loss which he succeeded in making good few days after his arrival home. It will be interesting to see the end of all this. Such things usually end in col. lapse or an explosion.

findings and all, if they wish; whose prices are reasonable, and whose fit, if not his en. ish, is well nigh perfect.
 To get to his place of business a person must pass through one of the most unclsan portions of the city. It is swarming with children, who have great black eyes and
 very dirty faces.
 From handearts in the street you can buy hard black bread for two cents pound, bread and butter at penny slice, pretzels from hawkers who carry them about strung
 on long poles, and at the stalls by the way side all kinds of fruits and vegetables in the
 last stages of decay, and yet many lady

 SC, braves all that is dissgreesble in reaching
 the place and that is uncomfortable while
 there, to patronize this man.
 He Is Hungarian and has been in this
 country @ dozen years or more. He owns
 the building which he occupies and others in
 the vicinity.
 He has a system of fitting of his own in-
 vention, and he employs 6 horde of men to
 do his work. He is usually found in his
 shirt sleeves with his hat on, and will smoke cigar while trying on @ dress if no objec tion is made.
 There is a single room where the fitting is done and where the long string of customers wait in turn. It makes no difference how many are there or what haste one may be in the man does not hurry. Imperturbably he works on for an hour, if necessary, in fitting single waist. There are no nervous jerks in his movements, but every stroke tells. There is no carpet upon the floor, no screen to step behind when removing dress or putting one on, only bare wooden chairs to sit upon, and sometimes not enough of them to accommodate the people in waiting. And yet this man cannot do all the work which is brought to him. His customers represent all grades of society, and in his eyes they are all on a level. "I should think you would move to diff ferent part of the city," said one woman: "What is the matter with thisl' he asked. 'It is 50 difficult to reach" 'That depends upon where you live, said he.

 "Do you fit all the garments yourselfp "Yes; I tried to have an assistant, but no ! lady would consent to be fitted by him." ''I hope you will not move up town" said l one of the pretty actresses, who was waiting her turn to be served. "You would have so much to do that you would never get round, and we have to wait long enough now; and then you would put your terms far beyond | my means"
 | The last idea was an important one to the I speaker, for the prices demanded by the | Fifth avenue dressmskers, of either sex, and ! those of the east side dressmaking factory here described are nearly as wide apart as the social distance which separates the two localities.

party of thirty yachtsmen were as
sembled at the Pavonia Clubhouse, foot
of Jersey avenue, last night. They were
waiting for some tardy members. Three
of the big boats of the feet were going on
another fishing cruise.
One of the boats, the Avalon, the
property of Mr. Mittelsdorf and others,
did not return until late in the afternoon,
cleaned up and her larder replenished
for the new voyage. The Phantom,
Commodore Kohn, will keep company
with the Avalon. They will run to the
Horseshoe tonight and anchor At sun
rise they will go out and troll for blue
fish.
The Avon, Captain A. J. Gaubert. will
sail down the bay with them, but will part
with them at the end of Staten Island and
make for Keyport.
The Phantom and Avalon will return
tonight or early on Monday.
The Leader, Captain Otto Rau, re-
turned last evening, after an absence of
three weeks.
The H. H. Holmes was beached after
her race with the Brothers, and had her
racing rig removed. She was put over
board last night.

THE INTERESTS OF LABOR.
Topics of Conversation in the Local
Unions.

1t is predicted that the Central Trades
and Labor Assembly will have rousing
meeting Thursday night Among the
questions that will come before the body
the most interesting at the present time
will be the subject of ballot Reform. ,,
As the political leanings and connections
of the delegates are almost as varied az
the crafts which they represent, the dis
cussion of the topic is likely to be excit
ing.
Politics will come uppermost in labor
circles, as they do everywhere else just
now. The claims of the two candidates
for Governor are being freely discussed
by labor men, and important conferences
have been held to decide upon a line of
action which will conduce to the interests
of labor.
The eccentric engineers will send dele
gates to the Central Trades Assembly on
Thursday. OtiAerorganizations not as yet
represented in the central body are con
sidering the advisahility of sending dele
gates.
Typographical Union No. 81 selected two
of its ablest members the past week to
complete its delegation in the Assembly

honored ones In addition to being thor
ough, all-round printers, both these gem
workers in their own union Jimmie"
is the popular vice-president Of No 81
an4 though young in years, is an old res
ident of Jersey City.
The reference made in the labor column
of last SUNDAY MORNINGS NEWS to the
large trade organization which took job
of printing to an unfair boss printer has
aroused considerable comment. Much
indignation has been expressed at the in
excusable carelessness of the individuals
who had the matter in charge.
Attempts will shortly be made toward
inducing the proprietors of certain halls
used for labor meetings to sell union
made cigars.
Prof. Daniel De Leon has written to
several labor leaders in the city in regard
to the organizing of q Nationalist Club.
The literature of the new movement is
sought afCef, and the ideas advanced are
being extensively looked into.
Henry g, Gruber is taking an active
ana prominent part in the work of the
Ballot Reform Association.
Reports from most of the trades declare
that work is brisk. Carpenters, painters,
iron workers, printers and others are
among those doing well

The objective point was Waguer's Park,
and there the boys filed themselves with
chowder, amused themselves with foot
ball and baseball, and entertained Off
Gals, politicians and friends who visited
the park TO see the sport. A big dinner
was served in the afternoon, aud in the
evening the chowder eaters returned and
made triumphal entry into old Hudson
City. Fireworks and colored fires blazed
along the route TO the headquarters
where the boys continued to celebrate.
