THREE Sites TALKED OF
Park Commissioners Hear
Discussions About
the Parks.

Park Commissioners Thurston, Win
ants ands Lembeck met at the Court
House to give citizens an opportunity to
offer suggestions and protests about
the proposed sites for the location
of sites. There did not appear
to be much enthusiasm mani
tested by the citizens. for there
were but five present and three of
of them were interested. The citizens
apparently feel assured that the subject
of parks is in good hands and their inter
ests will be cared for. Only two sites
were discussed.
FOR A BAYoNNE SITE.
After President Thurston called the
meeting TO order, ex-Assemblyman
Charles Fuller, on behalf of Bayonne,
said that the strip of land bounded on the
north by Sixty first street, east by Avenue
B. south by West Thirty third street and
west by the Newark Bay, containing I57
acres was very desirable site
The Commissioners, said Mr.. Fuller,
have showed good Judgment in consider
ing this location for park. IL fronts on
Newark Bay and possesses elements and
advantages that carnot be found in any
other part of the country, especially SO
far as water is concerned
The Colonel here in a poetic manner
dwelt on the beauty of the placid water
and likened it TO scene on the Grand
Canal in Venice. One could almost see
gondolas floating on the bay as his burst
of oratory had finished and he came down
to plain old JERSEY aud statistics.
The elevation, y he went on, lis thirty
feet above tide water and the soil is ex-
cellent. A splendid lawn could be con-
structed, and for picnic grounds It has
been famous for twenty years. The ioca-
ton is accessible from all partss of the
County, and beach that makes bathing
q pleasure is washed by the waves. 1t is
the only site IN the County that can fur
nish these attractions.
Colonel Fuller said that the water privi-
lege would do away with the trouble
cities usually have to make artificial
lakes, and as further inducement said
Bayonne was credit to the county; she
never had to issue bonds to pay her taxes

RED BANK. Feb. /, 1ss0.-The Red Bank
Athletic Club, which was organized about
week ago, has received a bad blow at
the hands of the different ministers here
On Thursday the day OF prayer for schools
and colleges was observed in the Baptist
Church The Rev. J K. Manning was
the first speaker. He said he did nob APP
prove OF the athletic clubs, because he
thought they developed brutal force. The
Rev. Nelson A. Macnicnol followed. and
also spoke against athetic clubs, deciar-
ing that they did more harm thRn good.
He said that there WAS no need OF such an
organization IN Red Bank.
The Rev. +. r. Harhaugh, pastor of the
Presbyt terrain Church, spoke IN the same
strain. He is a graduate of Princeton
College. but he said that when he went
to school such things were not couDte-
nanced He referred TO the football
match between Princeton and Yale last
Thanksgiving D8y as brutal exhibition
of sport. Many members OF the new CLUB
were present at the meeting and listened
in silence 70 all that was said against
them. But despite protests the organiza-
ton still fOurishes, and each day in
creases its roll of membership.

LOCAL POLITICS.
General Cutting for Congress in
the Fourth District.

Tho Republicans and the Democrats of
the Fourth Congressional District are
watching each other closely, and the latter
seem determined to make no move until the
former have shown their hand by naming a
candidate for Congressional honOrs- The
Republicans, however, will probably meet
in convention in few days and open the
ball by choosing successor to Mr.. Morrow.
This would have been done before, but
since the latter gentleman'S declinati0n the
party has been quietly casting about for an
available man, and now one has been
found, ii is believed, in the person of Gen.
eral j. K. Cutting. 1t is understood, at
least, that he has been decided upon, and it
is well-nigh assured that he will be n0mi-
mated. This is the result of careful consd-
Grafton on the part of party managers, and
it is known that the merchants have ex-
pressed their willingness TO give him their
earnest support. 1t may now be regarded
as reasonably certain that Mr.. Lloyd will
call the convention together again in few
DAYS, and when he does il is safe to assume
that General Cutting will be chosen.
SO far as the Democrats are concerned it is
Impossible, Of course, to make any prediction
as to their action. The naming of a eau
didaie lies entirely with Buckley, who
seldom delgns to announce his intentions in
advance The general belief is that he will
Rndiy permit Judge Ferral to make the race
again, so as to allow him, il possible, to re-
deem the laurels which he lost in 1888. The
Judge is said to be making vigorous fight
for the nomination. but what is meant by
this is hardly clear, for the only thing neees-
sary is to secure the sanction OF the boss"
and without this any struggle would be in
vain.
1t is just possible that Buckley may turn
The cold shoulder upon tho Judge and
nominate some new man, or else give the
imperial sanction to the candidacy of Fleet
+. Str0ther, who is said to be willing to try
for almost anything in sight.
The" new-man " theory grows out of the
fact that the boss has allowed it to be whis-
pered abroad that he favors INJECTION of new
life into the party by the nomination OF men
comparatively unknown in politics as less
vulnerable than those who have besmirched
themselves by doing his bidding in days gone
by. Like WORKOUT cart-horSes he would
turn his faithful henchmen out to die
on the common and turn the political
pastures over to new and younger genera
ton. At least, this is what the gosslps are
saying. but it remains to be seen how far he
can afford to abandon his faithful servants.

Berkeley.

More Improvements are now being made
in North berkeley than in any other part of
the town.
The Coast Range Athletic Club cleared
about $50 at the entertainment given last
Friday evening.
About GOO OF the voters of this town have
been registered. 1t is estimated that there
are about 1000 voters in the town.
1t will be difficult to find enough election
officers for all the precincts in Berkeley.
All election officers must be on the last as
sessment roll.
At present the stat6n-house at North
Berkeley is of very little use. 1t is about
fifty feet from the track and set up on stills
about ten feet in the air. 1t Is reported that
a foundation will be built under it, but even
then il will be practically useless.

The Spokane Falls Explosion.

SPOKANE FALLS, Sept. SIT was def
nitely ascertained to-day that of the thirty
five men at work at the Northern Pacific
yards last Saturday night, fifteen were killed
and seven wounded. The others miracu-
ul0usly escaped injury. There were many
eye-witnesses to the occurrence and many
versions of the accident are afloat. Nothing
new has been developed regarding the cause
OF the explosion. At the inquest to-day
number of meSA ire examined and from
the testimony IN it seems all customary
precautions AIKEN by the foreman of
the men engaN in charging the drilled
holes with powder The inquest is not yet
finished ana probably will not be concluded
tonight. Funeral services were conducted
by Rev. P. Bittner Of the Evangelical Church,
at Hall d Mobiles undertaking parlOr, this
morning at 10 o'clock. The rooms were
crowded and the solemn services were
most impressive. The lesson Of the I'M
certainty of life was pointed out and the
two motheTleSs children of Thomas Rhea,
who by his death we're left entirely I'M
provided for, were commended to the special
care of the charitable. On the collins were
placed beautiful wreaths OF flowers. Hun
dreds who were unable to obtain entrance
to the undertaking rooms filled the street
for distance of block. through which,
when the services ended, the funeral pro-
cession passed. Two hearses and six large
wagons draped in black were used to con-
Vey the dead to Greenwood, and the process
sion was the longest of the kind ever seen
in Spokane Fails. At the cemetery two
trenches had been dug sixteen by eight feet,
which were divided into fourteen spaces.
Into these the collins were lowered, the
burial service of the Presbyterian Church
was read and the dead were left to an I'M
broken rest. There were memorial services
in the Swedish Lutheran Church tonight.

Gloye-Fighting.

NEW YORK. Sept. S.-Pat Duffy of New
Orleans, one Of the beSt-known sporting men
in the country, is stopping at the st. james
Hotel. Speaking of the outlook in the di-
rection Of pugiism this year Duffy said ::
"Since the bottom dropped out of the Cali
fornia Club glove-fghting has drifted down
our way, and there are more pugilists in
New Orleans than ever before. l believe
in the new Mecca for men who win fame and
shekels with fists, and there will be some
lively encounters at our club this winter.
We have three good clubs, the Audubon,
Columbia and Young Mems Gymnastic, and
! dare say that either would give 5000 for
Dempsey and FItZsmmons. The Columbia
people made an offer of that amount, and
the others might bid higher if there is any
chance to get fight. The coming fight be-
tween Carroll and Bowen is being discussed
extensively down South, and the home man
is the fayOrite. | believe it will be a great
fight, for the men are equally matched"
