PUssYls RIDE TO TRENTON.


Among the visitors to Jersey City to
witness yesterdays celebration was dar-
ing little black and white kitten from
Elizabeth. Elizabeth was too slow for
kitty, and in order to reach here without
funds the little feline accomplished a
feat that excels the most brilliant effort
of tramp to steal ride on freight cars.
While making up train at Elizabeth,
Brakeman William Reagan discov-
cred pussy prowlfng around be-
meath one of the cars. When the
train reached Trenton, Reagan, for
some reason, was obliged to crawl under
the car. What was his surprise to see
Pussy hop down from its purch on one of
the trucks and stretch its limbs as though
tired OF its cramped position. She had
stolen ride all the way from Elizabeth.
a distance of forty-five miles. Reagan
exhibited the cat to Engineer Palmer,
who was SO struck with it's unparalleled
feat that he took her into the cab, and
Pussy's home will hereafter be with the
engineer.

GreenvIlle's Celebration.

Greenville was never SO patriotic as yes
terday. Nearly every house on Ocean,
Danforth, ana Garfield avenues and Old
Bergen Road flaunted the starry flag to
the breeze. Newark and New York Bays
were otted with white wings. The New
York Bay Cemetery was visited By
thousands. Enthusiasts banged away at
clay pigeons on the Claremont grounds
all day.
The reserve at the Fifth Precinct made
things lively by relating startling remi-
niscences and playing friendly games of
euchre and whist. The Y. M. u A. went
to Yonkers and played the Y. M. G. A. of
that place. Picnics were held at the
Schuetzen Park by the Greenville Lie
derkranz; at Currie's Woods by
the Nonpareils and Harrison Canoe
Club; at Sayles Bayshore House
by the Poland Harmonic Society
of New York; at the Atlantic Garden by

York; at Koon's Woods by the M. J..

Salter's Woodbine Grove by the jackson
Chowder Club, and the Turn Verein
made merry at the large Garden on Nc
Adoo avenue. In the evening the display
of fireworks was unusually brilliant.

nue.. Many OF heads of families spent
the day in moving their lawns and put
ting up screen doors. The children had
a great time with the fire crackers,
while in the evening the display of
fireworks was unprecedented. The
displays of pyrotechnics made by
Mr.. w. H. Cummings, of West Side
avenue; Mr. William Dram, of Yale ave-
nue., and Mr.. p. j. Kelley, Of West Side
avenue, were very elaborate, and neigh
bors and friends congregated in large
numbers to watch them.
The only thing to mar the occasion was
the defeat of the crack West Bergen nine
at Hackensack. Several baseball mines
from New York spent the day in Baccha-
nalian revelries. Two of the mines had
five kegs OF beer. and it was with
difficulty they could perambulate to
the depot. The beer seemed to
have soporific effect except in few in
stances where some of the representatives
of tine Empire State added to the noise of
the guns and fire crackers the inspiring
strains of "Annie Rooney" Paddy
Duffy's Cart" and other gems of song.
One unfortunate, overcome by his load
of beer, laid himself down by the side of
Mr.. w. H. Cummings barn. His slum-
bers were unbroken by the musical buzz
of the West Bergen mosquito and the
croak of friendly bullfrogs.

LAST NIGHTS FIRE,

At 1890 last night the central telephone
office received message announcing that
there was fire IN the south part of town.
The department turned out Immediately
and started south, guided by the illumina-
ton. No alarm was turned in at all. The
fire proved to be in the grocery store of
Charles Z. Black, 1882 South Mosley, two
blocks south of Lincoln street. Mr.. Black
says he presumes it caught from the
sparks from his chimney in the house inn
mediately north, which he occupies as
residence. The root of the grocery was
evidently where the fire originated. Both
buildings adjoining were burned. In
speaking of the matter last night the chief
said that If a regular alarm had come in so
he could have known the fire was beyond
the water limit, he would have put four
horses 20 the chemical and possibly have
saved the dwellings The dwellings are
framed buildings, owned by Mr.. n A.
En- glish, and the neighbors say were with
out insurance. Mr.. Blacks store was COW
cred by a policy of S400 and his stock by
$50. a few pieces of furniture were saved
but nothing of any value The entire
stock was total loss.

died. She was buried yesterday in the
Maple Grove cemetery at O'Clock.
Some spirits come into this world SEEM
ingly all too ETHEREAL and pure for earthly
life: its atmosphere shocks their too sensa-

anxious. no love however solicitous, can
restrain the wsf of heaven from returning
10 the compassionate bosom OF the In
finite The delicate little being entrusted
TO the love and keeping of Col. and Mrs
H. W. Lewis has for many months hovered
between life and death. She seemed des-
tined from birth for the band ''of such as
are OF the kingdom of heaven" By extra,
by even greater, By extraordinary tender
ness and solicitude, by night and by day,
continuously for more than a year. the
delicate flower was nourished in the hope
which love ever inspired that the perfume
of her spirit might survive to bless and
brighten an earthly home, but, like the
perfume of the flower or the dew Of the
morning, she was exhaled and went TO an
unfading home of marvellous visions aud
imperishabie joys. missing the strifcs and
all the doubts Of the mortal, hghtin. up

pathway for those to whom size was en-

PRO-CATHEDRAL CHIMES.

Anticipating that Right Rev. Bishop
Hennessey would, as he did year ago,
open the course of annual Len:en instruc-
tions at the Pro-cathedral Sunday night, a
large congregation assembled, many nom
Catholics being present, consisting OF those
who had listened to the eloquent discours-
es delivered by the Bishop last Lent and
many, who, having heard of the enjoyable
instructions, were attracted with the hope
of hearing the course this year. But the
Bishop did not feel sufficiently recovered
from the severe attack of la grippe and
Father Mainville ascending the pulpit, ex-
pressed the formers regrets at not being
able to preach. 1t is hoped by all, and ex-
pected by himself, that the Bishop will
feel equal to continuing the course SO i'm

BUFFALO IN DEMAND

Mr.. William Weaver, of Duriin, North
Dakota, arrived in the city yesterday aud
registered at the Valley House. His bust
ness is the purchase of buffalo which he
intends to cross with Poll Angus cattle.
In an interview he said he had about clos
ed contract with Mr.. Harry Hill for his
lot but that he wanted more. He antici-
pated very little trouble in finding just
what he wanted but was afraid it would
take him little longer than he had calcu-
lated. In travelling through Kansas he
had several times been almost persuaded
to establish Il ranch here. The skin from
this cross makes the finest quality Of buff
talo robe and Mr. Weaver expects to do an
extensive business. In closing he said he
could give some statistics that would be
astonishing but supposed it to be to his in
terest to keep his project to himself until
all his arrangements were concluded.

THE QUINNELL FIRE REVIVED.

The matter Of the insurance of Mrs
QuinnelFs house promises to come into
the courts at an early date. 1t will be re-
mem bered that some time ago the house
was burnt and the companies were ready
to pay over the insurance as soon rs the
adjustment could be made. Before the
settlement, however Officer Mcnamara
found some of the furniture supposed to
have been burned with the house in va
cant dwelling near by. This fact aroused
the suspicious of the insurance companies,
who propose to stand a law suit on the
matter Messrs Howe G. Mastin hold two
of the policies, having taken them from
Mrs. Quinnell in settlement of her in
debtedness TO them.
The companies think that the furniture
was moved from the house with the inten-
tion of burning it afterwards, and as a
matter of fact the fire did occur. Some of
the neighbors state that Howe & Mastin
threatened to attach for their claim and
that the furniture was moved 10 defraud
them and that the fire was an accident.
Mrs. Quinnell does not seem to have
much interest at stake beyond keeping her
skirts clear of incendiarism.
