WHAT 1T MEANS.

There were good many bidders at the
sale of lots Oy the city corporation on Mon
day, and the competition was spirited. 1t
will be seen by reference to the figures
printed elsewhere in THE HERALD that the
prices obtained were, to state it mildly,
extraordinary. We don't believe the ma
nicipal authorities expected such high
bids, and it is certain that the people gen
orally, in their widest imaginings, never
dreamed that so much money would ever
be paid for the land in question. Half-a-
dozen years ago, or such matter,
the person of ordinary intelligence
would have hesitated before paying
the surveyors fees, and the fees for re-
cording the deeds for most of this land
Within the period indicated petitions have
been present ed to the council praying for
the return of the "a or So which, years ago.
the petitioners paid into the city treasury
for deeds to lots better and more eligibly
situated than those which sold under the
hammer yesterday for thousands of dollars.
They did not regard the trifiing sum paid
for it, and could not be convinced that it
would ever be valuable. How land up
there on the benches and mountain side,
beyond the water line and a mile or two
from the business part of the town, could
ever be worth anything, the great
majority of ordinarily intelligent persons
were unable to conceive. We must all
confess that the subject has to be spoken
of with good many expressions of aston
ishment and written about with numerous
exclamation points.
What does Mondays work mean! will be
asked by not few of our citizens. 1t will
be said that most of these lots were pur-
chased on speculation, and this will be true
enough. The buyers will expect to sell at
an advance, and they will not be disap-
pointed These lots will be on the market, and
there will be trading in them for some time;
andwe do not doubt good deal of money
will change hands before the land finds its
final owners and improvements of any con-
sequence are made. This is one thing that
is meant by Mondays auction, but it is
not the big thing-not the matter fraught
with the greatest meaning to the commun-
ity. 1t is of small concern to the public
how much money JOHN Doe and RICHARD
Roe make and lose buying and selling land.
They may be rich today and poor to-mor-
row, and their status in neither case will
affect the community.
AS we understand it nearly all-if not
the entire tract-of these lots lie above the
present water line, and most of them are
long distance above the upper ditch. Now,
without water, the land IS worth no more
than it was in the esteem of the fairly
intelligent citizen of few years ago who
was unwilling to pay the triling fees nee

IN THE EAST.
Peculiar Antics Of New Jersyeites-Miss
Beatty at Sparta.

WASHINGTON, N. j., Nov. 21.-Mr.
George w. Aber, of Vienna, N. j., has al
lowed himself to get Into trouble that will
no doubt be more serious than he antici-
pated before it ends. About ten years ago
Aber married a Miss Emma Voorhees,,
daughter Of Abram C. Voorhees,, of Hack
ettstown. They have been blessed with
two children, aged about six and eight
wears. But it seems that Aber, being Of a
rowing disposition, in his travels met a Miss
Sarah ]. Beatty, of Sparta, Sussex county,
about a year ago, and passing himself off
as a single man soon won her affections
and has been counting her since that time.
He is a mason by trade and has been
working on the improvements at Blair
Hall. Blairstown. While working there
he would spend part of his leisure time
at his residence in Vienna, and at others
times at the residence of Miss Beatty at
Sparta.
Mr.. Aber and Miss Beatty concluded that
their lives could be made happier by unit
ing themselves in the holy bonds of matri-
mony, and so by the services of the Rev.
Baker Smith of Sparta, they were married
Although Miss Beatty had been previ-
ously warned by different parties that
Aber was married man, she needed not
the warnings.
The marriage notice appearing in the
Sussex papers, Mr. voorhees,, the fathe Of
wife No /, began to investigate the matter,
and finding that it was the same G. w.
Aber that married his daughter Emma,
swore out warrant at once and he was ar
rested at Hackettstown on Friday byOficer
Carpenter. and the following day was
taken before justice at Newton where he
was put under a bail s., 600 to await the &C
ton of the next grand jury.
Wife No at once went before justice
and made statement that she had never
been married to Aber. When asked about
the marriage certificate that has BET n seen
at her home, given, it is said, by the Rev.
R. Vanhorne, when he was stationed at
Washington, at the time OF marriage, she
claimed it was forged by Aber and herself
She was at once put under bail to the
amount of 81 1000. Both were locked up
in the Newton Jail, being unable to secure
bail

water the lots are worth all that was paid
for them, and more. The big meaning of
yesterdays work is that water will be
taken to those lots. The men who bought
the land purchased with the confident be-
lief that the fluid necessary to transform
their ''buys" from arid beds Of gravel and
sand to delightful gardens filled with flow
ers, shrubs and trees would be forthcom-
coming; and the men who will re-purchase
these lots will buy with the same under
standing and conviction held by Mondays
investors. 1t does not matter that the cor
poration conveys no water rights with its
deeds, nor will it avail to say that water
cannot be had. Water will be procured,
cost what it may, and the public might as
well make up its mind to this.
The third meaning of the big prices is,
we fear, one suggestive of a boom.

IT IS stated that small fry politician,
Delegate DUBOIS, of Idaho, announces that
if the supreme court overturns the villain
Gus test oath of that territory he will not
present the state constitution recently
''adopted'' there, by about twelve thousand
votes. AS the total vote indicates popula-
ton equal to about one-half of what is re-
quired for Congressional district, DUBOIS
need give himself no concern. His dog-in-
the manger act will not be called for. Such
as he running things there, and the general
appropriateness of the thing, will leave

to CO so.

COMMENTING UPON the recent election in
Omaha, when the Democrats were victori-
Gus, the Republican of that city says: 'The
problem of how to make Democratic city
give a Republican majority has not yet
been solved by the Republican city com
mittee or Republican candidates. The
party has gone down into the shadow of
defeat, not because the ticket was not a
good one, not because the committee did
not work hard enough, but simply because
of the fact that through multitude Of
causes, chief among which was the defec-
ton of number of Republican workers,
the party failed to get votes enough"
Tolerably logical and rather sensible, all
things considered!

change perceptibly. Those who counted
on Governor TooLE being steadfast and
true man did not look in vain. And yet he
is not pursuing an altogether partisan pur-
pose, although Democrat; he is simply
endeavoring to have the laws and the will
of the people as expressed at the polls car
ried out. He would be less than a man,
certainly less than a governor, did he fail

Chinese Customs.

The highest ambition of a Chinamar
is to have nice coffin and fine flu
neral.
When Chinaman expects present
and does not come he sends one o
lesser value.
A previous acquaintance between
the male aud fsmale prevents then
from marriage. For this reason man
seldom weds a girl of bis own town.
Wheu Chinaman desires a visitor
to dine with him he does not ask him
to do SO, but when he does not wish
him to stay he puts the question:
Wont you stay and dine with me,
please?" The visitor will then know
he is not wanted.
If Chinaman desires the death of
an enemy he goes and hangs himself
on that enemy's door. 1t is considered
a sure way to kill not only that enemy,
but members of his entire family will
be in jeopardy of losing their lives.
A Chlnaman can always borrow
money on the strength of having a
SOB, but nobody would advance him a
cent if he had doze daughters. The
former is responsible for the debts of
his father for three generations. The
latter is responsible tor the debts of her
OW Ii uuSDdu
Old men play ball and fly kites, while
children fold their arms and look on.
Old women instead of young are the
idols of society. Love-making is only
done three days before marriage. 1t is
not only considered the fastest way to
get ahead of a rival. but the surest way
to get a wife without losing much
time.
When a Chinaman meets another
he shakes and squeezes his own hands
and covers his head. If great friends
have not seen each other for long
time they would rub shoulders until
they got tired. Instead of asking each
others health they would say: "How
is your stonach?" or Have you eaten
your rice?" "How old are you?" "How
much did you pay for your sandals?"
A rich mans servant get 10 salary,
yet many are the applicants; while big
salaries are paid to the servants Of the
common people, but few make applica-
tion. The perquistes of the former
often more than triple the salaries of
the latter. which is the sole reason Of
these differences. To encourage
honesty and sincerity confidential
clerks and statesmen in all branches of
industry receive an annual net per
centage of the firms business, beside
their regular salary.-Bonne Ierre

First Love.

How does woman love? Once, no more,
Though life forever its loss deploe;
Deep in sorrow or deep in sin,
One king reigneth her heart within.
One alone, by night and day,
Moves her spirit to curse or pray.
One voice only can call her soul
Back from the grasp Of deaths control;
Though lovers beset her, or friends deride,
Yea, when she smileth another mans bride
Still for her master her life makes moan
Once Is forever, and once alone.
How does man love? Once for all.
The sweetest voices of life may call,
Sorrow dauut him, or death dismay,
Joys red roses bedeck his way;
Fortune smile, or j.'st, or frown,
The cruel thumb of the world turn down;
Loss betray him or love delight,
Through storm or sunshine, by day or night,
Wandering, toiling, asleep, awake,
Though souls may madden, or weak hearts
break,
Better than wife, or child, or pelf,
Once and forever, he loves-himself.

Haistead's Bold Challenge.

1t is bold move for Murat Hal
stead's friends to plunge him into the
Senatorial contest of Ohio in advance
of the election of a Republican Legis.
lature. If it wins, 1t will be a winning
of immense magnitude; but if it loses,
what then?
With Foraker at the head of the
ticket for Governor and Haistead a
predetermined candidate for Senator,
the Ohio campaign assumes decided
ly personal aspect. Foraker Is For
aker and nothing else; Halstead is
Halstead and rothing else. and both
have deep.seated and rentless antago-
nisms to confront them. Foraker's
nominate for third consecutive
term-unknown in the State for more
than generation-was a bold chal-
lenge to the Sherman men who de-
nounced him as perfidious; and Hal
steads caiidacy for Senator is a bold
challenge to the field and to all who
have bit the dust because OF his always
honest, always courageous, but some
times ill-advised castigations.
Halstead's candidacy for Senator will
make Cincinnati the storm-centre of
the campaign, as the success of either
party in the Legislative contest of that
city will be likely to assure the SUCCESS
of that party in the senatorial battle.
The important question, therefore, is
whether Halstead's candidacy will
help or hinder the success Of the Leg
islative tickets in Hamilton county.
1t certainly should do SO considering
Ealstead's vast merits as citizen and
as a party leader. even after discount
ing him by all his faults; and it is quite
probable that his personality in the
conflict will benefit his party but there
are strong political interests which
would shudder at Halstead's success.
Would Chairman Quay, who voted
against Halstead's confirmation, hustle
around to aid the Ohio campaign to
bring HaIstead into the Senate as
bull with the hay Oh his horns?
The rejection of Halstead for Minis
ter to Germany was one of the most
fragrant outrages ever perpetrated by
the Senate, and the broad sense of JUS
tice that is inherent in the American
people will sympathize with him in
this bold and perilous challenge. He
we'll merits the highest honors the
party could confer upon him, and If
honest merit shall dominate in the
Ohio hattie, HaIstead will be Senator.
