AMusEMENTs.

ga Midnight Bell at the Academy.
Not a vacant seat was to be seen at the
Academy of Music last night at the per-
Torrance of "a Midnight Bell" The
comedy is the work of Hoyt, whose farces
have made such great successes, and it
is decidedly the best that he has yet
written. From beginning to end the
events are most amusing, with just
enough undercurrent of plot TO
keep the interest keen. The scenes
are laid in a country village
and the prominent residents of the vii
lege become the leading characters in the
little drama. The clergyman, the deacon
and the bad boy, the schoolma'am, who
boards around, the Squire, the old maid,
were all there, true pictures of life. In
the characters, so natural and lifelike are
they that it seems like spending the even
ing with old friends. The play is a
comedy, purely American and truly
funny. The old school house, with its long
benches inc blackboard with the old
deacon's picture chalked upon it, could
not fail to awake a responsive chord in
every American breast, and the village
sewing bee-who has not been to one and
enjoyed 1t just as keenly as the city law
yer does in the play? The character of
Deacon Tidd was cleverly acted by
George Richards and q word of praise is
due to his make up" which is rarely
artistic, SO true is it to
nature. In the country boy
an old favorite, Eugene Garfield, was re-
cognized and all the other parts were adj
mirably sustained. "A Midnight Bell"
and by the way the bell is certainly the
least conspicuous part of the play, will
remain at the Academy all the week and
not to see it is to lose one of the best
things OF lite.

PERSONAL AND NOTABLE.

Workmen are unearthing numbers of skele-
tons on the Shook farm, at Montague, Sussex
county. Some people think that they are the
remains of soldiers killed at the battle of Coma
shaugh, which occurred on the farm of Ira B.
Case, in Dingman township, in 1871.
A new candidate for Sheriff of Camden has
just appeared in the person of DR.. P. W. Beale,
Councilman from the Ninth ward. He has an
nounced that he is going to stay in the fight to
the finish. The doctor is a well known and
popular Republican, and will undoubtedly make
a strong fight for the nomination. He is known
to have the backing of some of the shrewdest
workers in the party.
There has been a widespread report lately
that James Smith, Jr., of Newark, was in full
fighting trim for the United States Senatorship
and would enter the race against Governor
Albeit in 1892; that he had received assurances
Of the support of Senator Mcpherson and
meant business from the word CO., as one
Democrat expressed. Last night Mr.. Smith said
that he, perhaps. might as well remark now as
later that there was absolutely no truth in the
report, and that he was not a candidate for
Senatorial honors.
Mr.. and Mrs. r. F. Ballantine and Mr.. and
Mrs. ]. o.. H. Pitney will sail for Europe in a
few days. Mr.. l.. NJ. Keasbey and Mr.. 7. N. Nc
Carter, Jr., also contemplate a similar trip.
The Newark Board Of Education has been no.
titled by the State Board thati it has appropriated
S324,9s 8 to Newark. This is an excess of S1O,-
GG7 .97 over last years allowance. The school
census is larger by several hundred, and the
per capita tax $3.50, instead OF $G.1s, as for
merly.
Fred. G. Marsh and Foster M VOORHEES,, of
Elizabeth, were at Albany last week and were
present at the meeting of the State Legislature.
They were received cordially by the Empire
State statesmen and had introductions to nearly
all. They had interviews with Governor Hill
and Lieutenant Governor Jones. Their visit to
Albany was especially in reference to the Dem
ming Ballot Reform bill, q substitute to the
Saxton bill, of which they are among the pro-
mulgators.
The Sixth Regiment will not go to Atlantic
City for their annual muster and inspection on
May 20. The Board of Officers of the regiment
had decided to accept the generous offer of the
Atlantic City people to entertain the regiment
on that day. A general order issued by Major
General Plume, commanding the division, knocks
this plan into a cooked hat.
Judge Hitchner has made an order for an cleo
ton at Woodstown on May IS to decide the ques-
ton of incorporation under the new borough
law.

LEMBEcK's REORGANIZATION.

The Eagle Brewing Company to be In
corporated Today-Sale of the Bonds.
The organization of the great ale brew
ing interests OF Lembeck & Betz. des-
cribed by THE JERSEY CITY News a
couple of weeks ago, will be effected to-
day by the Incorporation Of the Eagle
Brewing Company, at Trenton, with
Henry Lembeck, John Betz, Henry L..
Kellers, Peter Friedhoff, Michael Des-
mond, Dennis Gallagher and Jorgan H.
Adelung named as incorporators. The
capital stock will be $3.50, 900.
The incorporation of the is a
notable event in the history of the bust
ness interests of the county. Since the
publication of the proposed details of or
ganization the preliminary matters of
preparation have been progressing at a
rate indicative of assured success.
OF the stock over $780, 900 has already
been subscribed and the balance will soon
be in the hands of interested consumers
anxious to share the benefits Of the CO.
operative plan of conducting affairs. The
ss5O,oO OF nrst mortgage bonds are in the
market, held by the New Jersey Title
Guarantee and Trust Company, and by
Saturday evening will be we'll distributed.
Bids I'VE been received at the office of
the company for several days past, and
will be received until noon Saturday,
when all Will be opened in the presence
of the bidders. There are many
reasons for believing that the fig
ure will be high, probably reaching
los. The investment is viewed with favor
able eyes, as the mortgage is secured by
the Trust Company, and is a property,
free from all their heirs, worth in reality
at least S500,0 900. The bonds are issued in
five series of $50, 600 each, maturing at in
tervals OF five years after May /, 1900,
and having six Dnr cant qamf-ppnua17v
After all bids are in and the bonds all
sold the amount raised will be utilized at
once by the new company, and the work
of adding a beer brewing plant to the
present establishment on Ninth street
win be pushed. Il is estimated tina
$3.50, 600 will build the new brewery and
supply the new appliances required. The
balance will buy malt for the first years
business and cover other running ex-
penses.

A Humbug Law Indeed.

We most heartily endorse every
word only competitor said yester-
day in its editorial columns regarding
the clause Of the ballot reform law
which requires candidates to file state
ments Of their campaign expendi-
lures. We said months ago just what
the Journal said yesterday, and we
are glad to see it come over to our
way OF thinking. Here is the whole
case in a nutshell as the Journal puts
it,:
It win occur to any man possessed Of ommon
sense that, il any money is expended impro-
perly by any candidate, it is not likely that he
VII give q truthful statement about its expendi-
ture- The man who buys votes with money, or
resorts to any form of bribery to secure his own
political success, will lie about it as readily as
he win engage in the corruption or prostitution
Of the ballot.
All these devices to make men good
and politics pure by machinery are
humbug Of the most outrageous kind.
We only wonder that the absurdity of
the other features of the bill do not
strike the Journals editor with equal
force. In our judgment the official
ballot will prove to be an official
mockery, and the secrecy thrown
about the polls will help s~coundreily
