ABOUT THE CITY,
The Condensed Pirate Does

in Rainbow Co1ors.
PAULUs HOOK BREEzEs.

Johnny Neyin seems TO get his full
share of smiles from the fair pedestrians
who pass the city hall steps.
Mr.. Henry Bernstein, the affable Young
superintendent of the Boston Clothing
House, is certainly clever in devising odd
and novel schemes to attract attention to
the Boston show windows. There Is al
ways some attraction therein to afnuse the
Newark avenue pedestrians
The first thing Jake Kramer did after
returning from the Knights of Pythias'
convention was to commit murder and
stain the floor Of the new Police Head
quarter Building with blood aud gore.
Jake shot a mad. dog there on Thu rsday.
1t would seem there IS no authority on
the part OF the city to cut down those big
rottentr chat are such an eye sore and
menace to the safety of lower Grand
street pedestrians. They are ready at any
moment TO totter and fall; and they'll
net wait for anything to get out OF The
way when they take such notion.
NowStilat the roofing of the new Police
Headquarter Building Is being put on one
may gain an idea of what the new build
ing will look like when completed. 1t will
add immensely to the VICINITY and the
oriel tower on the corner of Gregory street
and Cooper place lends to the building
itself an imposing appearance. The City

Chief of Police Murphy will spend his

One frequently hears, during these
warm nights, the remark:-"W hat has
become of the Newark avenue chippy2''
Verify, say unto you she hath flown

Very little is talked of down town at
present but summer outings. The Null
doons1 are actively preparing for their
outing on Staten Island July 81: the
O'Neilts talk of little else than their pro-
posed great blowout at College Point
September 5, and the Enoch j. Smith As

The Morrow & Day dude like a
certain patent medicine Ifs peculiar unto
itself = He likes tolnnch together in the
popular restaurant during the noon, and
II anyone else has any business in the
place the DUDE does not know it. He
gathers in little parties OF three and four
and fills the entire room with his vapid
Jokes and loud cackllng laughter. In q
voice that can be heard almost out to the
street he asks the faithful servitor what
he has today, and then orders a high
sounding dish in the same loud voice
with such an air as phe Emperor of China

province to the Snickersnee. Tt some.
times happens that when he enters the
restaurant he Is the only one of his kind
there. he keeps sharp look out. Soon
some one OF his fellows comes in and
takes a seat At another table. Then
shouting as though each were deaf, they
begin to invite each other to come over to
his table. Finally one picks up his half
consumed food and goes over to the
others table. When they have finished
their meals and pass out to the store they
stand for some time and relieve them
selves q some weak jokes and silly re-
marKss accompanied by killing glances
in the direction OF Miss Angel Cake, all
Tor that estimable young lady's benefit.
People who pass down Washington
street ara beginning to wonder why ali
work has stopped upon the new building
for the New Jersey Title Guarantee and
Trust Company, which Is being erected
opposite The JERSEY CITY NEWS Office.
The cessation of the work is due to the
FAILURE of the company having the con-
tract for the iron work to have the ma
terial ready st the time agreed upon. It
is said, however, that the iron work will
soon be ready and that the building will
be rapidly pushed to completion.

therefore that the bibulously inclined
heard OF his death one day this week 1t
was said that he went home from his
work feeling tired, laid down and gave
up the ghost. With a sad heart, born of
the knowledge that never again would
they taste such John Collinses and peach
blow fixes, Otto's admirers wendell
their way to Albers' to drown their sor-
row caused by Otto's death in a manner
which Otto would have approved OF had
he been alive. They were much aston
