Scrabney's Magazine for September
contains the first of three articles on
our New Navy-the results of the
voyage which R. f. zogbaum, the
artist and writer, recently made on
the flagship of the white Squadron, !"
expressly for this magazines; Donald
G.. Mitchell's very richly illustrated
paper on 1.-THE Country House, "
which is written in his most charming

| tions of the River and Lake Systems
| of Africa-the fruit of his journey to
| meet Stanley; a description of He'll

visited that picturesque island;
one of several papers by Pro-

'sThe Aspect of the Earth')-de-
scribing the effects which physical
conditions have had OF the character
of the populations of various States;

to the series on 1.-The Rights of the

represent the best work of skilful ar

Mr.. Zogbaum's article is entitled

life on a modern warship under very
new conditions, describing the voyage
of the fleet from New York to Lisbon.
The illustrations are from sketches
made during the voyage. Other arti-
Giles in this series will describe naval
life in port, with interesting glimpses
of strange people and curious Incl
dents of harbor life.
The series on Homes in City and
Country has attracted wide attention
by a of the high reputation Of
the writers, and the practical sug

a Rasis for Investigations.

While we do not in all respects adj
mire some of the news methods of the
Worlds New Jersey annex, it is yet
entitled to credit for the blows it is
daily inflicting upon the Ring in this
city. Ia this direction it has been a
serviceable ally of The JERSEY CITY
NEWS. The boldness of the
rascals in charge of u local
affairs; the extent and al
most endless ramifications of their
villainies, have, as the World and THE
JERSEY CITY News have shown,
provided the two with ample material
for simultaneous exposures along
entirely different lines. If the NEWS
were to undertake to make known all
the wickedness that has been brought
to it's notice, it would have to double
up it's size, and then yield all its space
every day in the week to the one
topic.
The World has struck a rich lead
in the comparisons it has been maxi
ing for two or three weeks back be-
tween the management of municipal
affairs in Newark and here. Some OF
the articles OF comparison have been
reprinted in these columns. 1t was put
down that Jersey City spends largely
in excess of Newark on her heelers
while on the other hand, in all the
higher functions of government she
is away behind her. The comparison
between the school systems of the two
cities revealed a disgraceful neglect
by Jersey City of the most import
ant duty a community can perform
for its people. Next the water &C
counts and the water systems OF the
two cities were compared. Jersey
City was even more disgraceful by
the comparison. 1t was shown that
in Newark, the whole work of one de,
partment, in which Jersey City EN-
ploys hundreds of men, and
on which she spends thousands O.
dollars, is done in Newarkfor a mer'
song. Here we have gangs of mel
repairing water pipe and repairing
wv pipe, and their payrolls run VI
to $12, 900 or $50, 900 per year. New
ark had the whole business done TO
less than $500. Again it was shown tina
more money is spent by the Ring il

Belleville works than on all tn
mason work done in all department
Of the Newark water works for

A young Pueblo girls toilet for a
July evening is the same that she
would made in December. Her limbs
from the knees to the ankle are wound
with not less than ten thicknesses Of
deer skin. The costly black native
blanket is carefully adjusted with a
brilliant woven girdle at the waist. A
scarlet kerchief hangs backward from
the shoulders, and over all this is the
shawl draped from the head. Fill a
jar with water that gushesfrom a rock
a full mile from her abode home,

under a fervid sun and contrive to

and you will find her as placid and UNI

as much freedom as do the men In
most countries. Their dress is more

How Girls Should walk.

The walk of the old time girl com
pared to the drum major like carriage
of the young m Of today is an
apt illustration of the great change in
the characteristics of women of the
fashion during the past two or three
decades. 1t is unquestionably healthy

we'll built and robust girl who holds

fashion that she looks as though suf.

City, as the World puts it twill have
to travel on its uppers." The Ring has
actually squandered $50, 600 in cold
cash since it came into power a
year ago last June, under cover OF
street improvements.
There is ample justification in these
exposures, and in those which The
JERsEY,CITY NEWS has made for the
investigation the Senate Committee
is about to make into the conduct OF
u rafairs here. They learn, no doubt,
that the city and her people are at
the mercy of as desperate a gang OF
robbers as ever invaded a town. Ii
there is question as to the right of the
Senate to act in the matter without
the concurrence of the Assembly, the
committee should give the suffering
people the benefit of it, and, if neces-
sary, even stretchStheir prerogative to
save one of the chief cities in the
State, from bankruptcy aud depopu-
lation.
THANK Heaven, it rains once in a
while in this city. Otherwise the dirt
in the streets might grow mountain
high in spite of the money that is
paid to carry it away. Between
whisky and rain water, Contractor
Henry Byrne ought to make a living.

Fresh Air for Children.

When circumstances render it i'm
possible to permanently remove the
infant from the city during the sum
mer months, fresh air must be secured
by taking it to public parks during
the cool hours of the morning and
evening, or by spending the day in
some open suburban resort or on a
neighboring river. The heat of the
day must be spent in as cool, clean
and we'll ventilated room as can be
had. Plenty of sleep is important,
and it is OF great moment that the in
FAINT rest upon a clean, fresh bed
rather than on a hot lap or shoulder.
| When out of doors it should be
wheeled in a coach rather than car
| ried. Many a stout mother has caused
| her baby's illness, and ever its death,
| by too fond and constant nursing.
| The clothing must be as thin as posi-
BILE, provided always, that wooden be
worn next to and over the whole skin.

made during days of excessive heat
when the legs may be allowed to &C
bare.-Dy. Louis Starr, IN Ladies

The Girl of Today.

1t is not enough that the young
women of to-day shall be what their
mothers are, or were. They must be
more. The spirit of the times calls on
women for a higher order OF things,
and the requirements of the woma n
of the future will be great. l must NOT
be construed into saying that the
future woman will be one OF mind
rather than OF heart. Power OF mind
in itself no more makes a true woman
than does wealth, beauty of person
or social station. But a clear intel
lect, a well trained mind adorns a
woman just as ivy will adorn a
splendid oak; a true oma has a
power, something peculiarly her own,
in her moral influence, which, when
duly developed, makes her queen over
a wide realm of spirit.
But this she can possess only as her
| powers are cultivated. Cultivated
women yield the sceptre of authority
| over the world at large. Wherever
a cultivated woman dwells, be sure
that there you will find refinement,
moral power and life in its highest
form. For a woman to be cultivated
| she must begin early; the days ar
transitory and fast-ieeting, and girls
are women before we know it, in these
rapid times. Every girl has a certain
station to occupy in this life, some
one place to fill, and often she makes
her own station by her capacity tc
create and fill it. The beginning in
fiuences the end.-Ladies' Home Jour-

Ages Of Man and wife.

1t is always better for a man to be
several years the senior of his wife.
And I'll tell you why. The average
girl who marries-God bless her-
stays at home, and makes q home a
blissful abiding place for her husband
and her children. The man goes out
into the world and has the respon-
sibility of caring for those who are at
home; and yet, time does not seem to

we say, "old before her time" Now,
even when this does not happen. she
does proportionately grow old In APP
pearance sooner than a man,
and for that a she wants
to take the benefit OF
the doubt and let him have the added
wears to start with. Then, too, you
should desire to keep your heart and
mind young; to be his intellectual
| companion, and this is much easier

SUNNY FRENCH WOMEN
Their Cold English Sisters Compare
Somewhat Unfavorably
With Her.

English women do not compare well
with French ones. The latter is civ
ilized, the other is on the road to it,
with the odds against her getting
there. Her idea of wit is q practical
Joke; her idea of after-dinner CONVEX
sation is an o~ff-color story. She has
few big virtues and no little ones.
The French woman would die Tor a
cause or a belief, would work for 1t,
would intrigue for it and would be
capable of enduring almost anything
for the sake of a friend.
She understands the art of SINAI
talk without indulging in o scandal,
and gossip, to her, possesses no al
traction unless 1t Is witty; Tor peauty,
brains and Drawn she has a great adj
miration. but she can be gentle and
kind, sweet and sympathetic, where
one exists.
She reyerences blood, and an i'm
poverished lady from the Faubourg is
treated as a guest of honor where
miIionaires whose titles are recent are
counted of little worth. The American
woman is carer to the French than
is the English, but even the American
might initiate her in some respects
advantageously. Here are some OF
her virtues
She looks we'll, which means not in
q fussy way, after her household.
She is the best of mothers n the
| most affectionate of daughters.
She is patient with her husband,
| giving him a smile when she knows he
deserves something else, but believing
that it is always a better weapon than
a cross word.
She can talk for n hour IN a pleas,
ant way about things and places, n
never say a d~isagreeable word about
people.
she may be the centre of attraction
at the dinner table or in the ballroom,
and she is beautifully unconscious OF
it. :,
She can wear a cotton frock so well
that YOU will wonder why you ever
thought silk or velvet worth consid-
GRAFTON. :,
She shows respect for every mans
religion; all that she shudders at is
lack of it.
She has read the last new book, seen
the last new picture, heard the last
new opera. but if you haven't she
never makes you conscious OF hel
greater advantages.
She rules in a country where Sallc
law does not exist, and rules by max
ing her sons adore her, her father love
her and her husband respect her
