Some Reasons for Supporting Mr.
Allen

In another column will be found
some interesting facts in regard to the
recent refunding of two millions of
city bonds. and concerning the large
reduction in the city debt which may
be expected during the coming year.
The facts show that the Board of
Finance has done its work with idel-
ity, and that it has been rewarded
with better success than any previous
civic administration. All those who
are most intimately acquainted with
the workings of the Board agree in
giving Mr.. Charles w. Allen credit for
the active work which led to this graf
flying result. This places the citizens
under e. heavy Indebtedness to Mr..
Allen, which they should in part dis
charge by voting for him to morrow
week for President of the Board of
Aldermen.
There is another strong reason for
supporting Mr. Allen, besides the per-
sonal one. 1t is a matter of great i'm
portance that all the branches of the
city government should be harmoni-
Gus, so that political chickering's may
not impede the public business. Now
the election of Mr.. Wegman would
make the majority of the Board of
Finance Republican, while all the
other departments are controlled by
Democrats. The result would proba-
bly, be more or less wrangling and con
fusion At least it would not be pos
sible for harmony to prevail wher e
the Republican majority saw a chance
of making political capital out of
a row.
1t is at least plain to everyone that
when the Democracy puts an emf
nently good candidate in the field it
is the duty Of every democrat to sup
port him. In Mr.. Allen, democrats
have a standard bearer whom they
may follow with pride and conf
dence.

The Sunday edition of THE JER-
sEy CITY NEWS OF yesterday vas re
latively the best newspaper published
within a hundred miles of the New
York City Hall-excepting perhaps the
Nescayk Sunday Cab, which we have
not seen yet and which is generally
an admirable paper. THE NEWS was
certainly a much better paper than
any Of the New York dailies.
The New York Sunday newspaper
is being run into the ground. The
effort seems to be to spoil the greatest
possible quantity of paper, regardless
of the quality of the reading matter.
The papers, without exception, have
been deteriorating for the last six
months, and they have o reached
a dead level OF dizziness. which
makes it a labor and annoyance to
read them. A careful perusal of all
yesterdays editions fails to show
single redeeming feature. There was
not one bright or new thing in them.
In contrast with these, the SUNDAY
MORNING NEWS, covering all the re-
markable doings of the world bright
ly and succinctly, giving all the news
Of New Jersey in fresh and readable
shape, and the local news of the city
fully, correctly and readably, was a
joy indeed to the reader. The special
articles, too, both local and general,
were interesting and amusing, and
the whole paper had a vigorous and
incisive tone, which was wholly want
ing in the somnolent imported blanket
sheets.

A Quiet Little Game,

Three knives or sticks are placed on the
table. Some one who knows the game is
detailed to go out of the room. He must
choose confederate, but not mention who
it is. The people in the room are asked to
touch one of the knives, which were num-
bered one, two, three. The confederate
notes which one is touched, and on calling
in the person who was sent out, gives him
the cue, touching his forehead if the first
knife Is touched, his cheek or nose If the
second or middle one is chosen, and his
chin If the third knife is the one.
The person who gives these signals must
do SO in a perfectly natural manner A
lady, who had perfect control of her feat

gave one signal after another. the others

Soak the blankets for ten minutes in luke
