The failure Of the apple crop in New-Jersey has
struck death-blow at the industry of making
applejack, which fourished aforetime in that
State Applejack, sometimes dsrespectfully
styled Jersey lightning has the reputation of
being one of the most seductive and powerful
ntoxcants that the human anatomy ever had TO
deal with. What the people of New-Jersey who
have been in the habit of regarding applciack as
only one remove from the staff of life will do
now is melancholy and painful 10 contemplate.
Some of the fortunate ones probably have small
supply left from last season, and it is easy
to see that they will cherish il the apple-n0t
to say the appcjack-of their eye. To think of
New-Jersey without appleiack is like thinking Of
China without Cinnamon.

The election in the Eccles Division of Lam
cashire on Wednesday goes far to justify Mr..
Gladstone's prediction at Edinburgh on Tues
day that if the Government should grant a
general election it would be shown that the
country had been won over to Home Rule.
The Conservatives won in Eccles at the last
election by 292 The present election has
been warmly contested, both parties regarding
it as highly important. Hence the victory OF
the GIadstonian candidate by majority of
2O5 possesses great significance, especially as
il follows a long list of by-elections that show
Enthusiastically the rising tide in favor of Home
Rule. Such manifestations will not encourage
the present Government to take the risk of an
appeal to the country.

The meeting of the Forest Commission in
this city yesterday was made especially inter
esting by the presence Of representatives OF
several firms engaged in the numbering bust
meas in the Adirondack region. The lumber
men appear to favor the plan OF State Park,
but for time at least they are anxious to Ne
tain the privilege of cutting trees and, incl
dentally, of making money. Such privilege,
It is clear, ought never to be granted except

The city's floating baths are rather expensive
things 10 keep when not in use Last winter tie
city paid 70 cents day storage for each of them,
but, by some change in conditions and circum-
stances, or through desire to squeeze" a rich
municipality, the price has gone up, and Commits
soner Gilroy finds that lY must pay 81 80 day or
else keep towing the baths around the harbor
There is scarcely anything more useless or dis
heartening IN winter time than floating bath, and
it is possible that the former custodians have felt
impeled to raise their terms account Of the
wear and tear to which their feelings were sub
jected. MIR. Glroy thinks the Dock Commits
sioneIs ought TO provide storage for the baths
Why not? Give them the baths by all means

A DISCOUNTED COUPLE.
The Old Story of the Ledger Who Won


The Old Story of the Ledger Who would
Be Friendly.
Septimus A. Jones is seeking divorce
from Jane Jones for alleged inidelity, and
the case has been on trial in Judge Wal
lace's department for the past two days.
From the evidence given it appears that
Mrs. Jones has been under the treatment
of physician since last September and has
undergone three operations in that time,
the last one occurring in March. Harry
Buford, friend Of the husband, had been
an inmate of the house for some time, and
had helped in various ways in the manage
ment of household affairs. Jones became
suspicious Of an Improper relation, and
took other lodgings after Mrs. Jones had
locked him out one night
Mrs. Jones testified yesterday that she
married the plaintiff i'll Liverpool, England,
in 1880, her first husband, George Mills,
having been killed by the mounted police
in London. She denied having written the
two letters to Buford, which had been pro-
of impropriety. When her husband made
accusations against her on the 22d of April
last she said that lie struck her, the blow
discoloring her eye, cutting her lip and
breaking tooth.
Jones testified that he did not strike her,
but that she had scratched him under the
ear and slapped his face He held her until
she was exhausted, and when he placed her
on the bed she kicked MIN.
Judge Wallace said the settlement of the
affair depended upon proving that Mrs.
Jones wrote the two letters offered in evil
dence, and the case went over until Wednes-
day next to permit her attorney to produce
expert testimony Oh the writing in the let
tiers.

LOGAN'S MURDERER.

Friends of the Slain Waiting to See What
VIII he CIark's Next Move.
The friends of the late Captain Duncan
Logan are anxiously watching the moves in
the case against Charles Z. Clark. his con-
victed slayer. and wondering what is going
to happen next.
Clark was sentenced to be hanged ON the
nth of July next. Immediately after the
sentence was passed his attorney asked for
a new trial, which was denied. Then he
obtained an extension of time for present.
ing a bill of exceptions until June 30th,
and. pending the presentation of this bill,
Clark applied to the Supreme Court for a
writ of habeas corpus, which was granted.
The hearing upon this writ was had on
the 18th of this month, Clark's attorney
contending that inasmuch as Clark was
serving out one sentence at the time he was
tried for murder, the trial for murder and
conviction are illegal. This question has
not yet been decided by the Supreme Court.
The last move up to date was to serve a
notice of appeal to the Supreme Court from
the original conviction in San Diego before
arrest for the murder.

Southern Seas.
According to the latest information at
police headquarters. John f. Hawkins,
the ex-policeman who attempted to black
mail Sacramento girl, has gone to Homo
lulu. Although no one saw him on board
the steamer last Wednesday when she sailed
for the Orient, it is stated positively that
he was hidden away in the hold or cabins.
Il was a friend of the ships captain, who
may have helped him to escape.
His relatives have been inquiring about
lin at his old haunts, and his former CON-
panions have also searched for him in vain.
Officers and saloon-keepers, it is rumored,
have been duped by him for money loaned.
Regarding the paragraph In the weekly
sheet, which was the original cause for the
attempted blackmail, the publishers state
that it was not intended for the young
woman whom Hawkins approached in Sac
ramentO. but for another woman who is
still in San Francisco. There was a strange
