Probably No Fake Contest.

1t is painful to see how hard our
friends the enemy take their defeat.
Having put up a candidate, wholly
unfit to be Mayor, they tried to adj
vance his cause by all sorts of I'M
proper and unpopular methods.
SANDER, bulldozing, appeals to class
prejudice-these were the agencies
they employed, and now they are as
tonished because the public mark
their disgust and disapprobation.
They cannot understand the causes of
their defeat. That is the trouble,
they do not understand the tone or
temper of u people at all. They de-
liberately offend all the ideas, the
prejudices of the greater number of
the voters, and when the voters re-
sent their conduct they can only ex-
plain it by bowling fraud.
Now, to all intents and purposes,
there was no fraud in this election.
We do not mean that there may not
have been a crooked scoundrel here
and there who cast a double-barrelled
vote. Probably a good many crooked
votes were cast on both sides. But
any one can see there was no fraud
that could possibly affect the result,
or that is in any way worth consider
ing. The Republican districts went
strongly Republican; the Democratic
strongly Democratic. 1t was a bitter
party fight, and that is all there is
of it.
We hear that already ex-Mayor Col
Inns has resolutely refused to counte-
nance any fake contest by entering
into it as counsel. We commend his
good judgment. Probably there are
others who would like to induce MFR.
Perkins to waste his money on such a
struggle; but we understand that gem
tleman thinks twice before he INDUCES
in any lavish expense, and we
rather inspect the contest project
will fall through for lack of
Doodle, if for no other reason,
unless indeed the same per-
sons who are putting upn for the
Stuhr circus see a way to political adj
vantage iii another fight over Mi.
Cieveland's election. But we hardly
think that probable.

PERSONAL AND NOTABLE.

There are about five hundred corporations in
New Jersey, not previously assessed, that will
be compelled to pay taxes THIS year by the State
Board Of Assessors. This will make about two
thousand five hundred miscellaneous corpora
lions to be taxed under State laws, thus adding
about S4o0. 0CO annually to the State treasury.
1t looks as though within a short time there
would be three newly incorporated villages in
Bergen county; Englewood, Tenatiy and West

special election to decide on bonding the borough
for $780, 900 for a water supply and $500 for

1t is probable that in a few weeks Red Bank

MAYS LANDING, April 9, 1890. Among
the civil cases noticed for trial at the
present term of the Atlantic County
Court was that of the Second National
Bank, of Atlantic City, VS.. Mary A.
Haines, ct al, foster sister of Julia c..
Lippincott. The proceedings were
brought by the bank to secure a note
amounting to 1925, bearing the alleged
signatures of Mary A. Haines ana Julia
Lippincott, as makers, and Edwin Lippin-
colt and Isaac w. Stokes as endorsers.
The case came on before Judge Reed this
morning, and by agreement of counsel
was tried without a jury.
On the part of the defense, Mary A..
Haines, Isaac w. Stokes and Edwin Lip
pincett were examined, and they declared
the use of their names on the note, either
as makers or endorsers, to be forgeries.
This being the case, the Judge dismissed
the suit against the defendants.
Immediately afterward the Grand Jury
being in session, the evidence taken be-
fore Judge Reed was submitted to the
Grand Jury and they found an indict-
ment for forgery against Mrs. Julia Lip
pincott. The Grand Jury returned the
Indictment, among others, to the Court
and the defendant being called to plead,
ansWer was made that she was beyond
the Jurisdiction of the Court.
Edwin Lippincott broke. down entirely
and wept like a child while on the wit

Morristown, April 9, 1890. Intelligence
OF a horrible murder comes from Hiber-
MIA, q mining village, where about two
hundred Hungarians are employed, nine
miles from here. On Monday night Paul
Matiazcozki. a German, aged thirty
eight, was attacked by Gerbuio Baricki
and John Stanik after he had started a
quarrel. They smashed his skull with a
beer bottle in Paul Kronolick's saloon.
After receiving the blow he was thrown
down and kicked most brutally. The
bartender then helped him out of the
saloon and he staggered to his room in a
boarding house near by. Thence he was
forcibly taken by his assailants, and all
bruised and bleeding and half uncon-
scious, was hanged to a tree. The whole
affair lasted but a few minutes. Passers
by found him and cut him down soon
otter the gang had gone, but life was all
but extinct. He died soon afterwards.
The police have arrested three of his as
sailants, and are searching for two more.

Female TenacIty Of Life.

1t appears from the gathered statis-
tics of the world that women have a
greater tenacity of life than men. Ma
ture worships the female in all it's va
~rieties. Among insects the male per-
ishes at a relatively earlier period. In
plants the seminate blossoms die ear
Hest and are produced on the weaker
limbs. Female quadrupeds have
more endurance than the males. In
the human race, despite the intellec-
tual and physical strength of the man,
the woman endures longest. and will
bear pain to which the strong man
succumbs. Zymotic diseases are more
fatal to males, and more male chill
dren die than females.
Deverga asserts that the proportion
dying suddenly is about 100 women to
780 men,; 1000 men in the United
States in 1870 committed suicide to
$50 women. lntemperance, apoplexy,
govt, hydrocephalus, affections of the
heart and liver, scrofula and paralysis
are far more fatal to males than
females. Pulmonary consumption, on
the other hand, is more deadly to the
latter. Females in cities are more
country. All old countries not dis
turbed by immigration have q great
majority of females in the population.
In royal families the statistics show
more daughters than sons. The
Hebrew woman is exceptionally long
lived; the coiored man is exceptionally
short lived. The married state is

that there are from two to six per

Our Election Extra.

O0A 1HACCbiOA AAtEts
The compliments which we received
all day yesterday and again this
morning upon our admirable election
extra are sufficient reward for the
pains which it cost to secure its
thoroughness and accuracy. The
statement was repeatedly made that
it was the best election extra ever
published in this city, and we almost
believe that to be true. The only one
that could compete with it was
own issue the morning after last Nov
ember's election, which was a
revelation to Jersey Citizens as
to the possibilities of organ
lied journalism. II that paper fell
short of yesterdays effort it was
manly because the work to be done
was OF much greater magnitude.
And, apropos, we owe a word Of
thanks to the election officers. The
promptness and accuracy with which
the vast majority of the figures were
forwarded to Police Headquarters
was of the greatest advantage to us in
performing our work.
BY the employment Of a large corps
of reporters, tabulators and printers,
THE JERSEY CITY News was also
able to place its extra edition on the
street a little ahead of allrivalry. This
is a professional rather than q popu-
lar triumph, but we take some pride
out Of it. Our edition went into the
hands Of pun stereotypers at eleven
minutes past four, and the completed
plates were turned out by them in be-
tween nine and ten minutes. The press
began running at 4:21, and at 4:26
boys We're speeding in every direction
from the office crying the "Noo-EEs
Extra" Our only competitor also
made excellent time. Its issue APP
peared on the street about 4:30, or a
minute or so later. We offer it our
compliments OF the Improvement
both in time and style, which it has
effected by closely following our
methods. 1t was o very creditable
second to The NEWS on this occa-
sion.
The public appreciation of the
NEWS extra wal shown by its great
sale. 1t is true that this fell short, a
few hundred copies of our great sales
in November; but the execrable
weather in part accounts for this,
while the minor character of the con-
test, and the foregone certainty of the
result also tended to diminish the de-
mand. The sales of the day after
election last November were 1900
OF the morning extra and $500
of the regular editions. Yester-
day, the figures show the sale
of the extra to have been
about three thousand copies, while
about eight thousand four hundred OF
the regular edition, allowing for esti-
mated returns, were, probably, sold.
All things considered, we regard these
figures as showing greater strength in
the paper than those of November.
They surpassed considerably our own
expectations.
But if these figures are less than
those Of November, the preceding
days more than make up the differ

A Lighthouse Heroine.


A woman who is now assistant
keeper at White Head light could en-
tighten those who wish to know some
thing of the experiences of lighthouse
keepers. In 1856 this woman lived at
Matinicus rock, twenty-five miles
from the mainland, and inaccessible
except in pleasant weather. Her
father, Samuel Burgess, was the
keeper at this light, and his family
consisted of an invalid wife and five
children, one daughter, Abbie, being
seventeen years old. At the time of
the memorable gale that swept
Minot's light into the sea, the keeper
happened to be away. The heavy
seas broke over the rock, washing
every movable thing away until Of
the dwelling not a stone remained.
The little ones hurried the mother to
the tower and then crept in them
selves, as the sea cleared the rock of
all save the stone lighthouse. For
four weeks they lived there alone, for
no human being could go to their res
cue, but night after night Abbie
lighted the beacon, and it never failed
to shine through the gale.
One day in 1857 Mr. Burgess left the
rock to obtain his salary and to secure
provisions. A gale prevented his re-
turn, and the family ran short OF
food. Abbie fashioned a sail, and her
brother, who happened to be at home,
started in a small skiff to procure
food. For twenty-one days the fam
lily lived on a cup of cornmeal and an
egg each per day, for the son was not
heard from until the twenty-second
day, and, added to the risk of famine,
was the suspense as TO the fate of their
