Too Much Fertilizer.

1t Is quite possible to overdue In the matter
of fertilizers, and this fact has been brought
out fully at a number of experiment stations.
Fertilizers are good thing when they are
needed In the soil for the crop, but they are
not always needed. 1t Is always well to have
a small surplus Of plant food In the soil, but
beyond that 1t is not profitable. 1t Il true
that additional fertilizer may bring an In

ftable, for an increase of yield may cost too
much.-f American Agriculturist.

| Damaging Res ults.

| from little visit to relatives In the interior
of the state last week. He had been carried
beyond his destination once before, so when
he boarded the car In the evening he called
| the porter to him as soon as that dignitary':

lowing conversation with him.

Thoroughly aroused and very angry the
Chicago man threw the curtains apart and
saw the porter grinning feebly, with bis COZ

evident Commissions about each of his eyes.

A Hidcous Disagreement.

The stone piers built on private prop
erty on the edge of the thoroughfare
are handsome. but on the edge of the
sidewalk the company has erected
we do not know by what authority
two unsightly wooden trestles, and
the span is apparently to be con-
structed of rough logs.
Now the crossing of this street is
very much in the nature of an out
rage at best. The public rights are
compromised here Just to accommo-
date one single private business. The
least that might be expected is that
the bridge should be as light and
handsome as the nature of the case
will permit. The Street and Water
Board should insist on the crossing
being made by q single iron span or
not at all.
Apropos, did the Street and Water
Board authorize the erection of the
tresties on the curb of the sidewalk

the inferior employees have no autho-
rity to start fires when the weathe
changes, without orders fro IN above.
Whatever the cause may be, the
fact is that last winter the fires were
lit and extinguished without any APP
parent reference to the actual weather
conditions. Last night was the first
symptom of similar eccentricity this
year. Assuredly the matter car be
easily arranged. A gentleman OF Mr..
Thurston's experience and executive
ability will have no trouble in settling
it for the whole winter if he will de-
vote half an hour to it.
This is really a most important mat
ter. Health and comfort are both in

and felt the stoves. These were SO cold

We do not suppose the failure TO
heat the ears is the result of any
stinginess- The company makes
money enough to give the people
warm cars and never miss the cost.
The fault is probably in the blunder-

haps it is lack of authority. Perhaps

The Harrison and Kearny Question.
The proposal to annex Harrison and
Kearny to Essex County should be
strenuously opposed by every Hudson
man. These two districts are sulky
because they are made to pay some-
thing approaching a fair share of the
public burdens. 1t is a new expert
ence to them, and like spoiled children
they want to stop playing with the
rest of the country.
But there is no reason why their
spleen should be gratified, and still
less why Essex should be given an
undue preponderance of wealth, pop
ulation and political influence such
as would be involved in the change.
As a matter of fact, Harrison and
Kearneyscost Hudson a great deal of
money. Bridges and roads have to be
maintained at great cost and almost
entirely for their benefit, and
they use up fully their share of the
general provisions made by the
county for public needs. Their re-
presentation in tine prisons and asy-
lums of the county is fully up to the
ratio Of the other sections. just now
we should not be surprised if a slight
financial loss were involved in the
retention of these two towns.
But to lose them would mean the
loss of an Assemblyman to Essex. 1t
would locate the Congressman who
now practically represent Hudson, in
Essex also. So much for the present.
The true reasons for holding on to
Harrison and Kearney, however, are
in futurity. These districts will
doubtless in a few years develop into
considerable places. Their water
front both on the Passaic and Hack
ensack will in time be the seat
of extended and industry.
The opportunities their level surface
affords for railway connections will
operate to bring extensive manufac-
lures to them, and of course commerce
and manufactures will bring popula-
ton and wealth.
Doubtless the county that embraces
these two towns will find them a
bonanza in a quarter of n century,
even if they do not amount to much
now.

All THE AeADEMY OF MUSIC.

Gi11ette's Comedy Provoked Roars on
Roars of Laughter.
There was one continual peal of laugh
ter at the Academy of Music last night
during the performance Of William Gill
lette's comedy-farce, "Mr. Wilkinson's
Widows Even between the acts the re-
collection OF what they had just seen kept
the auditors laughing. The play, we are
told, is constructed and developed upon
the basis of the French 'Feu Toupinel,"
M. Alexander Bisson's charming little
tale, but NJ. Bison was evidently lost
sight of early in the construction and de-
velopment. Mr.. Wilkinson. an Eain-
burgh merchant, kept two domestic estab-
lishments, and so well did he sustain his
dual part that he was dead and buried
and his w widows happily married
again before they discovered that they
had been deceived.
When the play opens one Is Mrs. Per-
cival Perrin and the other Is Mrs. Henry
+. Dickerson. Major Mallory. a typical
English officer, fiji ted most desperately
with Mrs. Dickerson when she was Mrs.
Wilkinson. He visits his old friend Per-
rim after an absence of three years and
tells him of the great times he had with
Mrs. Wilkinson. Perrin of course thinks
the Majors Mrs. Wilkinson is now his
lovely wife and then the green eyed
Monster has him. His demeanor toward
his wife changes ana she can account for
the change on no other ground than that
he is flirting with another woman.
The comical situations to which these
| errors lead furnish the substance of the
play and are well worth seeing, especially
when the parts are sustained as they were
last evening by Mr.. Charles Frohman's
mpan of excellent players.
Frank Norcross played the jealous Per-
rim in an admirable manner, and was
| ably supported by Miss Essie Tittell as
his wife. The dashing, flirting Mrs. Will
kinson, now Mrs. Dickerson, was faith
fully portrayed by Nina Hayward. while
Seymour G. Hess was a CAPITAL Mr.. Dick
erson. Seldom has been seen in Jersey
| City a better piece of acting han Mr..

Mallory.

The Worlds own Fakir.

The Worlds own hayseeder makes
a comical mistake this morning. He
knows so little about the local affairs
of Jersey City that he thinks the pre-
sentiment Of the Grand Jury yesterday
was directed against the police JUS
tees, and he puts a flaming headline
over his article to that effect, although
the text of the presentment. which he
quotes, shows the justices of the peace
were the men really censured by tine
Grand Jury.
This blunder, funny as it is from its
illustration of the ignorance of the
prize fakir still has it's serious side.
1t is an outrageous libel on three ma
gistrates who have done excellent SER
vice since they were appointed to the
police bench. Jersey City has for
years been very fortunate in it's police
justices. The two Republicans who
went out of office less than a year ago,
left behind a record which was truly
enviable, and we have as yet seen no
reason to doubt that the present in
cumbent would make one just as good.
This blunder, whether the result of
ignorance or spite, shows the absurd
ity of reading the New York papers
for local news. Nobody can question
the greatness of the World as q gen
eral newspaper; but when it has dab
bled in New Jersey affairs it has never
succeeded in being anything but ridic-
ulous.
