GRUBB CHOSE PENNSYLVANIA.
He Preferred a Captaincy in Philadelphia
to a Coloneloy in New dorsey.

He Preferred a Captaincy in Philadelphia
to a Colonelcy in New Jersey.
The Camden Post is exceedingly
maladroit in its explanation of Candi-
date Grubb's recent resignation as
commander of the aristocratic First
City Troop of Philadelphia. 1t says,
General Grubb signified his desire to
leave the troop long before he became
q candidate for Governor, having been
for q long time colonel OF a regiment
in the National Guard OF New Jersey,
and preferring the command in his
own State s%oldiery."
The fact will be recalled that Can
didate Grub was colonel of the Sixth
Regiment, of Camden, and at the
same time captain of the Philadelphia
First City Troop. A question was
raised as TO the right of a man to be a
member of the National Guard OF
two States and subject to two separ-
ate and distinct authorities.
Candidate Grubb had the choice Of
retaining the colonelcy of the Sixth
Regiment, of New Jersey, or the cap
taincy of the Philadelphia First City
Troop. He choose the latter.
He resigned the New Jersey com
imand and retained that i'll Philadel-
phia, prefering to be a captain in
Philadelphia rather than a colonel in
New Jersey. The choice was natural
for a man whose interests and afiilia-
tions are almost wholly in Pennsyl-
vania, but it touched the pride of
New Jersey guardsmen and it can be
recalled now as a singular proceeding
for the future candidate for Governor
of New Jersey.-NeWark Journal.

A Curious Fox story.
A clever and energetic Buffalo woman
who had been possessed with a desire Tor
travel and had very little money, finally
made up her sensible mind that it didn't
need nearly as large a bank account as
people believed to crafty a longing to see
the other side of the Atlantic. She had
$500 put away in the savings bank, and
she got leave of two months from the or
fee in which she worked. When she be-
came fully possessed of the determination
to go, she made a thorough investigation
of the whole subject of ways and MEANS
studied guide books faithfully, and fnaI-
ly maUured d plan of action.
She had made two simple cloth travel
ling dresses, one to wear at sea and n Tor
use on shore. To this she added another
very simple demi-toilet that would make
q pleasant change in the evening from the
dress she had worn all day. These went
into a small steamer trunk with her other
belongings; u hand satchel, d macintosh
and d heavy shawl, with umbrellas IN q
shawl-strap, and d steamer chair COM
pleted the list of her luggage. She came
to New York from Buffalo, and sailed for
Glasgow next day by the State line
steamer. She got a ticket both ways and
a comfortable stateroom for S75, and a
a very comfortable voyage.
At Glasgow she met friends II stayed
there five weeks. From there she made
a brief two days trip to Edinburgh Il
went on to London. She travelled third
class, which she found quite as comfort
able as the ordinary railway raveI here,
and her ticket from Ediubnrgh to London
and back again to Glasgow was only Sl3,
though the distance was over 500 miles.
She was waited on carefully by the
guards, and her parcels looked after for a
tip of only eight or ten cents, and in Lon
don she found cheap temporary lodgings
at the Alexandra House, q home 1of
young women put up by Sir francis
Cooke, the husband of Victoria Wood
hull. 1t has all manner of devices for the
comfort and welfare of the young women,
and for his munificent charity he was
knighted, and the Princess OF Wales con-
scented to take the home-named in her
~honor-directly under her oWn patronage
Afterward she lodged in a house much
f%requented by girl students, at South
kensington Museum, for about 81 a week.
Her luncheon she got in the shops, being
too much engaged in sightseeing every
day to go home for it. This she could get
for sevenpence-fourteen cents OF u
money-the luncheon consisting OF a cup
of very good coffee, an egg and abuttered
roll. She came home with some OF her
money left and q lot of pleasant memories,
and q fixed determination, as soon as she
had another $500 saved, to go over and
stay three months, which she is sure she
can do very easily now with her added ex-
perience.

Girls in The Drum Major"

GIFTS IN :" Ine Drum MaJors
There are two companies of girls
who participate in the march in the
third act of THE Drum Major" at
the Casino; one is dubbed the blue
line and the other the red line, accord
ing to the color of their uniforms.
Since the initial performance a CON
siderable amount of rivalry has been
noticeable between the two com
panies as to the perfection of their
marching, and each has it's champions
in the audience who vie with each
other in bestowing applause. Mr..
Rudolph Aronson has received several
letters from members of the National
Guard praising the accuracy of the
marching and evolutions. The new
scene for the second act, a blue and
silver salon, is a decided improvement
over the former one, and its influence
is manifested in the action, which is
now bright and vigorous.

Contrast his precision of view, his
breadth of information, his clearness

the Republican candidate when he
enters the domain of politics.
Mr.. Albeit is a gentleman of refined
and social tastes in his personal life,
too-though we do not are to incur
the reproach of nattery by dwelling
on such things in respect to the candl-

are they permitted to impair h
intellectual vigor or the executive
activity of his business faculties.
But why multiply words2 You all
know Leon Albeit. He has lived in

a rousing majority at the polls. The New Jersey
Association OF Democratic Clubs offers the means
for such organization. This Association now
calls upon all true Democrats to form clubs and
societies in every voting precinct of the State,
and to have such organizations fully represented
at the forthcoming Convention.

IL is doubtful If there is any other an
imal in the world so cunning as the 1ox'
IL certainly exercises reason, since III pro
vides against new contingencies as fast
as they arise. Here is a story Wnlcn eX-
hibits almost human calculation.
A pair OF red foxes took up their nome
on a Dakota farm, on u knoll in a wheat
held, where they began to rear tour HUE
foxes.
Every day, while narrowing and SOW
ing wheat in the field" says the farmer,
II saw the two old foxes lying on the niue
mound in front of their home. Tne kits
rolled about in the sun, playing. with the
buShy tails of their parents, and enJoyeu
themselves apparently as much as a group
of kittens.
One morning q neighbor came to work
in a field adjoining, bringing with ann q
dog, and the dog, with all the curiosity OF
his kind, oon began the Investigation Oh
both farms. He was still 81 long distance
from the fox-den when l heard a sharp
warning bark and saw the kits disappear.
As l looked the mother fox lay on the
mound, her ears erect, her nose on the
ground, all attention. The father OF the
family, with his big tail swinging in the
wind, trotted toward the dog.
Can he intend to attack him? won
dered. / had never heard of such a thing,
and the dog, though not a large one, was
still larger than the fox. But Reynard
knew his business better than l. he ap-
preached the intruder until the dog saw
him, when both stopped for an Instant,
and then the dog gave chase. The 1oX,
with a bark of defiance, turned and ran
in q direction away from his home.
AT first the dog seemed to gain rapidly
upon the fox, but | watched them for
nearly q mile before they disappeared III
the prairie grass and concluded that The
fox was able to keep u OF the others
way.
"In about an hour the dog returned
from a fruitless chase, and for a time he
~contentedly followed his master. Then
he began providing around again.
A this time the mother fox had re-
manned on the mound, a picture OF quiet
vigilance; but now, as the dog again
ventured near, she rose and trotted to-
ward him, and the dog wa soon chasing
her over the prairie. Hardly had they
disappeared when the male trotted back
from some hiding place and took the
position vacated by his mate. The DOG
fore.
During the day he was again and
again tempted 10 a chase, first by the
male and then by the female, and while
the II kept him busy the other watched
over the young, who did not show them
selves after the first sight of the dog.
"It is hard to say which we admired
most: the bravery of the pair in challeng-
ing the dog to a race chat would have
proved fatal had he caught them, their in
genuity in taking turns, so hat each
might be fresh when chased, their skill in
leading him away from their young, or
their cleverness in throwing him off their
track when far enough away."-Golden

Fl. r.. Jacobs Hoboken Theatre.

Only words of highest praise have
ever been spoken Of William Gill
lette's war play, Held by the
Enemy which is to be seen at the
Hoboken Theatre during this week.
The story of the play is one of the
brighter threads running through the
sombre wool of the civil war. There
is a dash and a spirit to it that holds
the interest from beginning to end.
No one is starred in the cast
now presenting the play, but every
member of the company has been Sc
leeted with an especial view to his or
her fitness for their respective roles.
Consequently a finished and very en-
joyable performance may be counted
