A Story and a Moral.

Mayor Cleveland was interviewed
the other day as to what he thought
Of a startling political rumor' which
appeared in a New York paper. His
Honor thought it was a fake, and to
illustrate the according to his view
general u~nreliability of newspaper
news, especially concerning himself,
he told a story. (Story is here used
in the n of a narrative.)
His "Honor" said that some years
ago the NewYork Herald published an
item which represented that be and
Mayor Gunther. Of New York, and a
third party had Como to Washington
on some matter which affected the in
terests Of both cities. The same morn
ing the item appeared His Honor was
walking on Broadway when a heavy

That City Hall Bill.

The EDeGing Journal quotes Mayor
Cleveland as speaking in the follow
ing terms about the City Hall Bill
When l received word from Governor Albeit
the other day to the effect that the city hall bill
had been signed, / Immediately telegraphed back
request for a hearing. / wanted to be heard
on the bill. The Governors secretary sent back
word that the Dill was already a law. and that
the matter was beyond the jurisdiction OF the
Governor. Twas anxious to know what the bill
contained. / happened to be in the Assembly
when it passed several weeks before final ad-
journment, but the following week, You will re-
member, Assemblyman Mullone had it amended
and rushed through the Senate before any OF US
could get an idea of the effect of the amendment.
/ have sent to Trenton for a copy Of the new
law, and am now awaiting a reply.
Apparently His Honor does not
like the bill much in its present shape.
''Veto and bounce" was his idea.
There is a funny little story about
Mr.. Mullone's amendment, = which,
by the way, is an admirable one, pro-
viding as it does for the submission of
the plans and cost of the new build
ing to popular vote The bill in its
second -shape-that is with "veto and
bounce" weeded out, but otherwise
leaving full power to the Mayors Com
missioners- was going through all
right when, one fine night, Mr.. Cleve-
land ran down to Trenton to lobby
for it. His presence created a scare
Everyone wanted to know what was
in the measure that brought his
Honor" down, SO bland and persua-
sive, in its behalf.
Nobody could tell just where the
point was, but every m felt there
was something queer, and to kill off
the queer element Mr.. Mullone's
amendment was tackled on.

'Our Girls il Camp" a three-act COM
edy, was admirably presented at Bergen
Hall last evening at the closing entertain
ment and reception of the M. L. Jacobs
elocution class. The camping ground
in the clearing was the pleasing scene of
the play, and the young ladies sustaining
manner that would have been creditable
to experienced professionals.
The interest of the audience in the plot
| was demonstrated by frequent applause
and recalls of pictures presented in the
tableaux. That the young ladies and the
pated had been carefully drilled was
manifest to the audience, and the young
actresses were the recipients of beautiful
floral gifts. The acting of Misses Ida
Orr, Tillie Hepsley, Erieka Jones, Naomi
Melliot, Lille Terwilllger N Jessie
Fenner was worthy Of special mention.
Miss Hepsley's solos and the accompany
ing chorus were pleasant features of the
entertainment and Ida Orr's representa-
ton of the Italian waif was the hit Of the
evening.
The entertainments was followed by a
reception and dancing to Prof. e. L..

Was Perkins Really Elected

Was Perkins Really Elected ?
We confess to being somewhat
dazed by the revelations which we
publish today in another column.
We are assured that the assertions
made by Mr.. Perkins lawyers are
not mere buncombe, as we have here
tofore believed, but they have really
discovered beyond all possibility of
disproof, or even doubt, the exist
ence OF the frauds described, and
others quite as bad. in the May
election.
We have always held that, terror
lied by the impending prosecutions
for the November sc~oundrelism, the
election officers would not dare to
commit frauds in May. We accounted
for the great difference of sentiment
between the First and Second dis
tricts on the one hand, and the other
four districts on the other hand. by
natural causes-the strong Democracy
Of the former, for instance, resenting
the persecution of Senator Mcdonald.
We find it hard to surrender this
view Of the case. 1t is bitter to think
that, on a fair, square vote. this Dem
ocratic city was lost to the Dem
ocracy. 1t is still mor bitter to
honest democrats to realize that the
will of the people was reversed by an
atrocious series Of crimes. Yet this is
the conclusion to which the latest
revelations, as outlined in our news
columns today, irresistibly lead.
There is indeed only one feeble ray
OF comfort. These things have not
yet been proven in evidence. They
are only the assertions of advocates.
1t is true that their circumstantialitv
carries conviction with it, but, of
course. the cause cannot be aban-
doned while there is the ghost Of q
hope.
Next week, sworn evidence will be
taken before Commissioner Nugent.
If it verifies the assertions of Mr.. Per
kins' lawyers, we cannot see that there
is anything left for Messrs. McDer-
mott, Edwards, and Hudspeth to do
but throw up their briefs, while If
Mr.. Cleveland has one particle of
manly uprightness in his composition
he will write his resignation on the
spot and send the case back to the
people for their adjudication.

hand was laid on his shoulder and a

hand was lid on his shoulder and q
voice said
Look here, Cleveland, what the
hill do you mean going off to Wash
ington without me?n
The voice was Mayor Gunther's and
he was mad clear through. He had
read the item. Mr.. Cleveland assured
Mr.. Gunther he had not been to
Washington, that the paper had ma
ligned him. Now His Honor uses the
incident as an illustration Of the gem
erai perversity of newspapers.
The true moral of the incident you
failed to gather, Mr.. Mayor. 1t is
this:-Gunther was dead on to you.
He had probably been there with you
before.
THE simplicity of DR.. Pangborn is
amusing. He claims that all the sto-
ries about census enumerators' ex-
periences, published in various
papers, including his own, are
fakes, because Mr.. Robert P.
Porter has issued a ukase that
reporters must not accompany
the enumerators on their rounds.
Does it not occur to the Doctor that
the reporters and editors of the news
papers are in a position to snap their
fingers at Mr.. Porter's very impertin-
ent ukase. By what possible method,
either in law or common sense, could
he enforce such an absurd mandate.
