..rhs Suspect" at the Peoples.

1.-THE Suspect" at the Peoples.
"The Suspect" a melo-drama in five
acts, by the author of "Monbars'' and
"a Prisoner for Life" is now running
at the cosy and popular Peoples
Theatre, New York.
The play is a story of the French
revolution. The plot is the suspicion
that the Due de Pressles Henry Lee
is a traitor to his country, for having
lost some valuable papers which are
stolen from his apartments by the
Count de Assol, the brother of the
Dukes afianced, who in the last act
Is overcome with remorseand returns
the original papers and thereby clears
the suspect.
The scenery is very fine, especially
that in the second act. The stage is
set to represent a French camp, with
the river and mountains in the dis
lance. During this act a messenger is
required to cross the river, and volun-
teers are called for. The Duke de
Pressles, who is now a soldier in the
French army under an assumed name,
is selected for the task on account of
his brvery. AT the time he leaves the

and after he has delivered the papers
and is returning, the fog rises
and the sun comes forth ex-
posing him and his comrades
to the enemy who fire upon them.
Fortunately they escape unframed.
After his arrival he is recognized by
his betrothed, who is now the
vivandiere of the regiment, who has
come to the camp to warn him of his
danger. as there is about to be an
investigation which may disclose his
identity. 1t is o powerful scene.
The cast is exceptionally strong.
High commentator should be made
of Mr.. Henry Lee, in his triple char
acter, and Of Miss Minnie Seligman.
as Gilberte de Armnis, the heroine.
The acting of these two is of the high
est order. Miss Seligman's different
characters allow her to show her sem
timental and emotional acting to the
best advantage.

Alas, Poor Grubb.

General Grubb visited Jersey City
yesterday. His presence had no very
marked effect on the current of bust
ness. The horse cars ran az usual. A
majority of the population ate three
meals with good appetites, and no
deaths from delirious joy were re-
ported to the Coroners. 1t is under
stood, however, that the saloons in
the vicinity of Cottage place did a
roaring trade. and we heartily

At the Toffey Guard Club House,
there was a small but select gathering.
Constable Joe" Locke was there,
and Lawyer Flavel MCGEE, of Bedle,

missioner Meyers, and other citizens
Of minor prominence did the pump
handle act to their own satisfaction
and General Grubb's serious discom-
fort. There was a sort of broom
drill and dress parade, and a troop OF
colored voters - experts probably -
were admitted in order that General
Grub might show his ardent Re-
~publicanism by shaking hands with
them.
Then General Grubb made a speech.
1t was brief, but it was marked by
truth and sincerity. He said, first,
that he was the first South Jersey mar
nominated for Governor II some years;
second, that he hoped Republicans at
this end of the State would work fol

est doubt but he meant what he said.
After the reception, General Grubh
was given an excellent supper
at Colonel Toffey's hospitable
home. 1t was a thoughtful
attention on the Colonel's part.
General Grubb must have felt the
need of refreshment and sustenance
about that time. On the whole he
had a sad evening of it. His arm
ached, and, we have no doubt, his
head and his heart did, too, and he
rued the day when he let the willy
Sewell make a stool-pigeon of him.
He has n consolation. 1t will soon

A friend of mine has been hunting
apartments lately, says a London cor
respondent, andhe is overlooking with
stories concerning the rules and regu-
lations of these temperance hotels. |
called with him at one of them, and
after having inspected some sepuichral
apartments on the fourth floor we
were confronted by the stony-faced
landlady.
II don't think your room will suit
me-, said my friend.
Here is our tariff and rules. Read
the testimonials in the back, repiled
the landlady.
We glanced over the folder, and
finding the prices by no means cheap
and extras abundant, we prepared
to 60; maoa n,, ~ twelve
o'clock, and the gas is turned OIL at
a quarter past twelve" said the land
lady planting herself in 'front.' OF the
door so that we could not escape.
Suppose | had afriend calling who
happened to overstay the hour?" in
quired my friend.
''We provide a candle in every
room" was the answer, land we allow
no ales, wines, or liquors OF any Kind
in the house"
Not even if | am sick and require
a drop of brandy"
''Ginger is better than brandy tor
sickness, -" responded the remarkable
woman, and then launched into a dis
s~ertation upon the evils OF taking
spirits foa medicine. She did not even
believe in external rubbing With alco-
hol, she informed us. The harangue
was getting tiresome, and my friend
attempted to cut it short by saying,
pleasantly
II have no doubt hat you use
every effort for the ~well-being and
comfort of your guests, but, as | said
before, / don't think the rooms suit
me-"
IF you want the comforts of ahome
you can get them here, but If you
want a bar you will have to go else
where" snapped the apostle OF EN-
perance. And we escaped.
One other funny experience we had
that afternoon was in a large, hand
some house which displayed the
familiar sign, Furnished Apart
ments,n over the door.
Our knock vas answered by a neat
housemaid, and a capital example OF
the type of British matron made her
appearance. She smoothed her silk
gown, gave a twist OF her cap ribbons,
and greeted us pleasantly.
You have apartments to LETT" said
my friend enquiringly. Her face
underwent a change.

we don't take in Americans"
After some little conversation she
was pleasant enough in her explana-
tion of her reasons, and foremost
among which were the facts that
American sightseers are irregular in
taking their meals and do not like to
give the customary weeks notice
upon leaving. She was good natured,
but firm in her decision. But she
stands almost alone in her position.
Most London lodging house keepers
and tradesmen have no conjunction
against taking in" Americans to an
unlimited extent.

The presentation in THE JERSEY

noon. of the / of the
County Convention vas a new de-
parture in local journalism. 1t has
been the habit of the local prints to
present, in the late or in extra

The fact is all the more notable be-

thousands of eager readers, before
our only competitor sent its half

The credit for this excellent work is
not entirely due to the planning of the
editorial department of the paper.
The plans were so faithfully and skill
fully executed by Messrs. Charles A..

represented THE JERSEY CITY NEWS

the public commendation this notice

The FIy's Wing.

The slow Tapping of a butterfiy's
wing produces no sound, but when
the movements are rapid a noise is
produced which increases in shrillness
with the number of vibrations. Thus
the house fly, which produces the
sound +, vibrates it's wings 21,120
times a minute, II 1876 times in a
second, and the bee, which makes a
sound of A, as many as 26,4OO times,
or 440 times in a second. On the con-
trary, a tired bee huns on e, and
therefore, according to theory. vi
brates its wings only $50 times in a
second. Marcy, the naturalist, after
many attempts has succeeded, by a
delicate mechanism, in confirming
these numbers graphically. He fixed
a fly so that the tip of The wing just
touched a cylinder, which was moved
by clockwork. Each stroke OF the
wing caused a mark, OF course very
slight, but still quite perceptible, and
thus showed that there We're actually
$50 strokes in a second, agreeing al
most exactly with the number of
vibrations inferred from the note pro-
duced,-CU9yent Literature.
