Laid 10y griel in the heart
May lighter become on the morrow
And, so tened by time. depart.

Ul1ie Akcrstrom Dances at the Academy
of Music.
Miss Ullie Akerstrom, the versatile
and charming little actress, appeared
at the Academy of Music last night,
and, with her company, scored a hit
in her comedy drama, Annette the
Dancing Girl
While the piece is free from any
startling denouement, it abonnds
with humorous incidents and oppor-
tunities for the little actress to display
her remarkable skill as a dance
These efforts brought down the
house repeatedly, and it was evident
that Annette the Dancer" was popu-
lar and entirely satisfactory to the
audience. The appointments of the
stage and the accompanying scenery
are admirably arranged, and the piece
is a satisfactory success.
1t will be continued during this
week, with matinees Wednesday and
Saturday.

-Extrayagnnt shoes.

Human fancy is capricious and in
constant as the wind that blows from
tree to tree, or the waves that wander
from strand to strand. In the Middle
Ages the exquisites of the period in
dulged in long toes to the shoes,
which we're supported by chains from
the knee. These the rich filled with
fine-scented grasses and the poorer
classes with straw, hence the adage to
designate a well-to-do man:-,He has
hay in his Shoes
Edicts were issued by Popes and
sovereigns against the absurd, ex-
t~ravagant custom, but as usual, fash
ion ran the cycle she had marked for
herself, turned to some other freak,
and the days of the long toes were
numbered. Sir Walter Raleigh, in
the days Of Elizabeth, had jewels
on his boots worth $50, 600, and
later on costly diamond buckles
adorned the shoes of the courtiers.
During the present century the
foot has been but indifferently
treated, and with the exception of the
Wellington and Butcher top boots,
fashion put no distinction mark on
pedal covering. But we are entering

effeminate display. Patent leather,
cloth top congress boots for men
reigned for a time, and already, the
fashion writers informs us, it has a
rival in patent leather, cut as low in
the vamps as women's shoes, and, in
stead of being made of the usualquali-
ties of leather or cloth, the part Of the
shoe front and back of the gore is of
the finest silk, figured, sometimes
polka dot style, sometimes in a
fiowery design. Underneath this silk,
we are told, is a background OF pink
kid, which is selected because it simu-
lates flesh color, showing through
slightly. At the jointure OF these two
materials, with the vamp, is placed n
neat bow.
We also learn that white silk vests
and jackets with braid are to be o
at evening parties. The swell Of the
present seems determined not to be
mistaken for the waiter, and If he
keeps on arraying himself in %eccentri-
cities at this rate, he will soon far out
rival the gaudy cavaliers OF Charles

The MayoraIty Contest-The peoples
Fight.
The coming campaign will afford
great opportunities for the party that
puts a good straight honest candidate
in the field, and it will end in dis
aster for the one that dominates a
bad or a weak man. The Republicans
have such In opportunity is
they nev heard of before to gain
possession of Hudson county with its
rich patronage, and the Democracy
has an equally good opportunity TO
consolidate its power by intrenching
itself in a fortress of reform ideas.
Politics will count for little in this
campaign, purity for much. If the
Democracy proves itself superior to
machine interests by nominating a
mai who will rule for the peoples sake,
it will win by the largest honest ma
jority it ever had in this city. If it
takes the opposite position, if it nom
mates a corrupt politician, the Re-
publicans will be able to win, even
with a mediocre nomination.
There will be no crooked count this
time. With the Grand Jury paying
the way to Trenton for one set OF bal
lot box suffers, other men will not
show any overwhelming zeal to roll
up an artificial majority for anybody.
The normal Democratic majority in
this city is about 1000 in a Mayoralty
contest. That means that a change
of about 1000 votes would wipe it out.
We are very certain that there will be
at least that change should the De-
mocraey run a machine candidate
against a first rate Republican.
There are hundreds of democrats
who will refrain from voting this cleo
ton if an obnoxious nomination is
made. There are other hum
dreds who will go further and
vote for the Republican. Again
there are hundreds of republicans and
neutrals who will come t o the polls
this time who never turned out in a
Mayoralty election before, just to
save the city from two years of cor
rupt rule. Independent citizens Of
high standing will take an interest in
this election such as they never took
before.
There may be politicians blind
enough not to realize this state of
things. We warn them of the conse-
quences. of their faulty. They will
be surprised to find how little they
count for themselves In this campaign
if they do not do the will of the peo-
pie.

New Fad in Ornaments.
A gentleman who looks after the
decoration of houses for a big furni-

a Chicago T5fbu3ae man:-''One of the
prettiest fads that / know Of is that
of taking acast+of shoe of some ore

ing desk know q lady who has q
pretty little home, Her e are
not quite up to her ambition, so she
has to- make the most of the pretty
little things which women like. She
had a baby that died and, like most
mothers, she saved its clothing and all
of its trinkets. She put away its little
shoes, and one day It occurred to her
to bronze them. In one she inserted
some ~tinfoil, and this gave the shoe
the proper heft for a p~aperweight on
her desk. In the other she inserted a
a little brass bucket for a matcftsafe
and put it on her husband's desk.
Every rease which baby's foot made
is there. The idea is not confined to
babies shoes, but extends to mems
and women's. / know a young man
who has n of the old shoes of his
sweetheart bronzed, and he keeps it
on the table in his room. and she has
one of his shoes likewise ornamented.
