We are much gratified at Sheriff
Armiger's prompt action with the
violators of the Sabbath, at Actions
Park in the upper end Of this coun-
ty, in arresting one Of the most
prominent ring leaders. Base ball
has been made q regular money
making scheme, and the companies
have no more right to ply their call
ing on Sunday than a merchant has
to open his place of business on
that day, and sell goods to the pub
lie.
This arrest by the Sheriff will
bring the question before our cOun-
ty court at its next term, and we
feel sure that that tribunal will put
an end to all species of Sabbath
breaking that may be called to its
attention, 50 far at least as this
county is concerned.

reined his horse before the door.

this horse two years ago..' you did?n
angwered the other, ''well, / lost my
horse-it was stolen-just two years

This conversation took place under
the far spreading oaks of an old time
plantation home. A planter was sur
prised to see his horse return home
after two years, and ridden by a gem
tleman who evidently had bought
the horse in good faith.
After some conversation the owner
Of the horse, with much earnestness,
said:-"Well, sir, if you will dismount,
unsaddle the horse, and he don't go
to the fence, take the bars down,
walk to the well, and ii he don't find

horse unsaddled it. What was his

fashionable Colors.

Along time ago people used to think
that blue was essentially a color for
blondes and angels. Nobody can dis
pute its being the color for angels,
but it certainly is not the one to be
chosen by a blonde. The fair skin
looks cold enough, and when blue,
specially pale blue, is put near it the
effect given is very undesirable, be-
cause what was clear white before be-
comes a pallor now. Blondes had bet
ter wear any of the rose shades, bright
scarlet, warm brown or dark green,
leaving the very trying pale blue to
the brown-haired lassie with a bright
color, or the warm brunette whose
skin does not know the unsightly
touch of sallowness. Everybody likes
a rose-colored lining, and, to be in
vogue this season, everybody ought to
have a r~ose-colored frock-in cotton
or wool, in silk or tulle, it is always
most charitable in bringing out ones
best features and toning down ones
worst. Combined with white the pink
shades are as dainty as a bit of old
china, and win suggest the pretty
pink and white ladies, whom Vatican
painted on fans, who played al little
| Trianon with Marie Antoinette,
laughed and TESTED, and yet did not
fear when they had to face death on
! the guillotine for the sake of the king
and the queen. Ladies' Home Jour

Astounding Revelations.

The analysis of the financial history
of the vile new Charter Ring given in
another column today, is the most
startling which we have yet laid be-
fore the public in our exposure of the
rotteness of the gang that rules it.
The big Four was the abomina-
ton of this community. Its villainy
was so atrocious that the people
rose up against it and took the risk of
confiding in Orestes Cleveland rather
than endure it any longer.
But even the ''Big Four" could not
plumber like Cleveland an d his gang.
In the last two years of their pow er,
when t hey had reached their acme of
in coient extravaganza, their ~exactions
from the people of Jersey City fell
$500, 900 short of the plunderings of
the New Charter gang, who are still
in the infancy of their career, unless,
indeed, tho people rise and crush
them.
What a revelation it is, too, that
with all these vast sums raised the
city receives no permanent improve
ment. Even the wretched, shabby
police headquarters, the Fourth
Precinct Police Station House, and
our solitary new engine house are
paid for with borrowed money, by
new issues Of bonds, while the river
Of tax money flows into the pockets Of
Ring heelers and Ring contractors.
Mr.. Bill H~ogencamp's share in the
business, too, is interesting. He and
his bank always come out ahead.
They pay no interest to the city on
The enormous balances which it keeps
With them; but the interest rolls into

tration. Every New York bank pays
interest at the rate OF . IL per cent.
for the use OF city money deposited

derive similar benefits from her re-
serve cash (?
There is not one particle of reason
why Mr.. Bill Hogencamp's bank
should not pay handsomely for the
vast monopolistic privileges the City
confers on it. But what is to be ex-
pected when Mr.. Hogencamp holds
the de Jacto Mayor In the hollow of
his hand, and owns, besides, the souls
of three members of the Board of FL
nance, one of whom is actually a di-
rector of the bank.
What show have the taxpayers
against such a combination?

NATURAL SWIMMERS.
If Women Only Would Have Conf
dence and Wouldn't Scream
They Could All do 1t.

An unusual amount of interest in
the art of swimming is manifested
among The majority of the
bathers Of the gentler sex consider
swimming an accomplishment of no
mean Importance, and a great deal of
time and money is devoted to attain
some perfection in this admirable
form of sport. 1t is easier for women
to swim than for men. People who
have had practical experience will, L
am sure, agree with me in this. The
build of women, with their light
bones and general average p~lumpness,
in nearly every instance enables them
to float at the very outset. This is
something that even men who are ex-
pert swimmers often find it impossible
to do.
1 have known many a slim, well
trained and powerful athlete who
could not float two minutes on the
water, while there were dozens of wo-
men all around him who only needed
a little courage to enable them to lie
as comfortably on the water as though
they were in hammocks. In learning
to swim they need confidence and
courage, and they do mot possess these
two requisites in the majority of in
stances, because the men in the first
place magnify the dangers of the
water, and in the second place they
think it clever to indulge in the silly
practice of mauling and ducking wo-
men until they implant a feeling of
terror, which inevitably prevents any
real progress in the direction of swim
ming.
/ know an elderly yachtsman who
has made swimming something Of a
study, and who is a convert to the be-
lief-as are most men who have looked
into the question carefuily-that
women are natural swimmers. There
happened to be five women present
one morning on a piazza at Seabright
during the talk of the old yachtsman.
He wound up his harangue by
saying that when they went
into the water that afternoon
he would prove by experiment
that every one of the women could
float in water over their heads. He
went about the matter in a decidedly
serious way, taking n girl after an
other, and he was successful in every
instance. His method was peculiar
and may be worth a line of descrip-
ton. In the first place the women
closed their eyes tight, so that they
could not see him; then he laid them
along the water, supporting them first
by a hand under the head, then after
ward by a gentle pressure on the
waist.
Gradually he took his hands away,
and held them up in the air so that
everybody could see that the girls
were floating without any help from
him. Occasionally he would nov off
a yard or so, and leave the young
woman floating serenely there under
the impression that he was holding
her up all the time. OF course ii
the girl discovered that she was
alone she straightway opened her
mouth, gave a mighty yell, swal-
lowed a lot of salt water and
went plumb to the bottom. AS long
as she supposed that a big and sturdy
Swimmer was near her she floated
with perfect success. After she had
once learned to float it was an easy
matter for her to swim on her back,
and so what was looked upon as such
a difficult thing to learn becomes easy
once the trick is known.-BlGkeIy
Hall IN Brooklyn Eagle.

ONE serious difficulty in the way of
the Democracy nominating Senator
Edward f. Mcdonald for any Office
this fall is that it would amount to
an admission that he was not really
elected, and that the fraud, Stuhr,
was entitled to the seat which he has
usurped. This, the Democracy can
not consistently or h~onorably do. If
a Democratic majority is secured in
the Senate, it will be its duty prompt
ly to fire Stuhr out and reinstate SEN
ator Mcdonald, who was the peoples
choice. Neither can Senator Nc
Donald well go through the form Of a
resignation in order to become a con
didate for some other office, because
that would be abandoning his eonstit-
uents to the imposter who meanly
sold them out to an INSCRIPTIONS
Republican clique.
1t seems to us that MI. Mcdonald
had better stand by his guns this
year, and rely on the Democracy to
see justice done him.
