RUTHERFORD H.

What a fine spectacle this man Har-
rison is making of himself Believing
that he was elected by some super
natural force, he has ignored the best
men in his own party and made him
self ridiculous before the best men IN
the other.
Pretending to love the soldier, he
extends his clammy hand to Chicago
and removes from Office the widow Of
the most gallant soldier who ever left
Illinois to so into battle.

AT Johnstown, Pa, three children
who were insured in one of the many
baby insurance companies have devel-
oped symptoms of poisoning, and one
of them is already dead. OF course
baby insurance is a legitimate business,
but to an unprejudiced observer it does
seem that some of the later develop
ments of civilization come very near
offering a chrome for murder.

GEORGE MEREDITH for many years

he is shortly to issue new novel is ev-
erywhere treated as literary event of

Pleasant JOuYneUS.

Pleasant journeys can always be had
via the Wisconsin Central Line. The
employees are courteous and obliging;
the sleeping and dining cars and day
coaches are peers of any in the North
west. The leaving hours at principal
terminal points are convenient and the
depots are centrally located. All to-
gether it is the most desirable route in
either direction between Chicago, Mil
waukee, st. Paul, Minneapolis, Ash

Thompson arose and, addressing the
Court. said that he had expected, in
behalf of the managers of THE

the challenge to the swearing in of
Mr.. Charles A. Pfngsten as member
of the Grand Jury; but owing to the
absence of Prosecutor Winfield, he
would postpone such action until to-
morrow
Judge Knapp, in reply, said that
the absence of the prosecution made
no difference. A challenge had been
interposed against Mr.. Pfingsten, and
it was due either to him or the pub
lie, as the event might prove, that
there should be judicial ruling upon
the charges against Mr.. Pfngsten. There
fore the Court would not consent to have
the challenge Withdrawn.

Sermon by Bishop Wigger at the

The handsome new parochial school in

Tighe, of St. Mary's, Hoboken, and a

rooms. When this had been completed
the clergymen repaired to the church.

said in part:It Is only few mouths ago
since number of the heads of families in
this parish met with myself and the
parish priest to consult together about

Those few months have passed, and to-

have just had the pleasure of blessing it
and praying Almighty God that all who
attend and teach in that school may be
blessed and obtain and practice all the
Christian virtues, and at the same time
that all might enjoy health both in soul
and body.

nature of the Christian school we find
how important it Is. 1t is intended for
the proper education OF chlluren In

amount of temporal knowledge. The

THE JOURNAL'S' lies.
Alderman Salinger De-
nounces the Paper Be-
fore the Fifth Dis
..triCt Club.

At the meeting of the Fifth District
evening Alderman Salinger denounced
the report of the last Aldermanic meet
ing which was printed in the EUei1;fsg
Journal and which, he said, greatly mis-
represented him.
The Alderman, although not a member
of the organization, demanded that he be
allowed an opportunity to set himself
right before his constituents and nail the
lying report.
This demand of Alderman SaIinger was
SO per emptory and apparently SO justified
that he was allowed the privilege OF the
floor.
In his hand he carried copy of the
sheet which SO grossly maligned him and
an envel ope containing copies of the
electric light and gas ordinances which
he opposed at the meeting and for which
opposition he was scored.
Taking the issue of the nondescript
sheet in his hand, he excitedly read the
following paragraDh:-"F Fully one hour
of the protracted session was
occupied by Alderman Salinger
who opposed about every righteous meas
ureS introduced, ana VINO IAJnereu one oil
the most infamous schemes ever brought
before that body"
After pausing for breath the Alderman
said, ssTnis lying and recriminating sheet
has attacked me without provocation and
left me without any means of defence.

tackled me wrongfully and wilfully.

that he was the author of the article and
he would stand by all he said

man. And, what's more, you are dead
beat"
Mr.. Humphrey w. Carr, ex-commis-
sioner of the Board of Public Works, and
prominent member of the club,
when seen by a JERSEY CITY
NEWS reporter after the meeting
said that the sentiment of the club was
unanimously in favor of Mr. Salinger's
sentiments and the unfair course of the
paper was much condemned
