BRoILED IN BERGEN.

superintendent Henly, OF the Jersey
City Athletic Club, is the right man lie
the right place, and the members of the
organization enthusiastically declare that
his superior cannot be found in this
city. Under his direction the club house
and its various appliances are always in
first class condition. Everything has a
place and everything is in its place. Be
side this, Mr.. Henly's uniform courtesy
has made him a great favorite with all
who have occasion to visit the club
superintendent Poland of School No.
II is one of the most popular members OF
the Jersey City Athletic Club He is con-
sidered one of the best ones in the club,
and whenever he enters a game interest
is lost in every other table and the crowds
gather around the one at which he is
playing.
A portion of the fence which surrounds
the elegant grounds of Mr.. +. Garwood
on Crescent avenue stands propped up
with beams, and is in generally demon
allied condition 1t was the first OBJ
stacle which on Sunday stood in the way
of the mad and suicidal flight Of the horse
of Director German, God save US. !"
When the Director ad interim has settled
with the livery stable keeper he will be
confronted with little bill from Mr. Gar
wood for the broken fence.
The people of the Bergen section are
rejoicing in the anticipation of being

electricity before the end of the present
month The poles for the wires are all
in place and the work of stringing the
wires has already been commenced The
cars will be run by electric motors to
about Brunswick street, where power will
be called into use again and continued TO
the ferry. Many people have wondered
why the posts have been placed along the
curb on both sides of the street instead Of
between the tracks. 1t is because there
is too much danger TO the passengers to
have the poles between the tracks where
they are so close 10 each other as they
are on Montgomery street, especially
when open cars are run, as tho company
expects to do some day on this route.
Garrison's real estate Office, on Bergen
avenue near the car stables. is a great
rendezvous in the evening for all the
political shining lights OF that section of
the Heights. There they meet trrespec-
tive of party or previous condition OF po-
ntlcal Servltude and discuss the various
questions of municipal government in a
brotherly spirit. Politics do not eousti-
tute the only topic OF conversation Of
these evening gatherings Social and re-
ligious problems are also handled with
ability and prudence and the chunks of
wisdom which fall from the lips Of the
citizens gathered there are well worth
listening TO.
Captain Archie Mckaig. of the Bergen
Hall Station, has come to be a great terror
to the evil doors of that section of the
city aud more than one of them would
not hesitate To do the Captain grievons
bodily harm at the first favorable oppor-
tunity. But such an occasion is
not likely to arise very soon.
The Captain is now attended in
al his walks by companion who guards
him most jealously. and woe betide the
tough who attempts to harm the valiant
captain when this faithful companion Is
near The companion Is a large black
and white dog. which the captain saws is
a mixture OF st. Bernard and shepherd:
1t is certainly noble looking animal aud
devoted admirer of the captain s
whlskers.
