A US E M ENTS:

"Prince Karl" at the Oper. House.
"Prince Karl" which was produced at
the Opera House On Wednesday evening.
is a most charming play. In it the author,
Archibald G. Gunter, has put equally
much the brisk action and bright dia-
logue which have made "Mr. Barnes of
New York; and "Mr. Potter of Texas" so
taking. Prince Karl is a German noble
man, who, to get out of debt, becomes
engaged to an elderly widow, Mrs. d. ID.
Lowell. There has, however. been a ro-
mantic attachment between him and a
beautiful girl, but SO far they rave re-
NAMED in ignorance of each others names
and station, being conteut to love and
know each other as Florence and Karl.
1t so happens that this same Florence is
Mrs. Armin, II wealthy young widow,
and the daughter-in-law of the Princes
~fiancee, Mrs. Lowell. In ner fear of losing
her princely treasure, the bride-elect has
prevented him from ever meeting Flor
ence. An hour before the wedding, the
Princes repugnance toward the match
overcomes him. and to escape it he feigns
madness. Thus Florence sees him and
first finds out that her Karl and the
Prince are one, and her mother-in-law
loses a husband. The Prince is aided in
this deception and escorted to an insane
ASYLUM by Mr.. Spartan Spots, who has
reasons OF his own for wanting to get him
out of the way. Mr.. SPOTS Is poor aud
wants TO marry Florence.
In the second act, Florence has just en-
gagged a new courier, who bears u strik-
ing resemblance to the Prince, and is his
foster brother. Naturally. many anus
ing scenes follow until the courier and
Prince, who is supposed to have been
drowned, are found to be one and the
same man.

products by protective tariff duties. but you can
decrease to them the cost of produc ion and OF

would exempt from taxation all raw ma
terial
Why? Because we could then produce cheaper
than any other people, and selln markets now
closed to us by reason of the higher cost which
the tax on material makes. That would give
vastly more EN- ployment to our labor, and con-
sequently higher wages than any proposed sys-
tenn of taxation.
The first question the legislator must ask him
self is, How will it affs ct employment of Ameri-
can laborg
Having rendered free from taxat- on all raw
material. the rates on the finished goods should
be reduced to that figure that will bring the re-
quired revenue and no more.
This reduction of rate will be a reduction OF
price to the consumer, and largely increase
home consumption and home production, and
again enlarge the demand for employment.

GODFREY CASES DEATH.
Hanged Himself After Participant
ing in Wedding Festivities.

Mr.. Godfrey Case, a well known man
about town aud Master Carpenter of the
Erie Railway Company. committed sui
eide by hanging yesterday morning after
leaving the wedding festivities at the
home of Marmaduke Tilden on Jersey
avenue. At the wedding he was one of
the gayest of the many who sang, danced
and Toasted until midnight.
When he returned to his home, No. 276
Second street, accompanied by his wife,
he was still in good spirits, and until after
two O'Clock Thanksgiving morning sat
and chatted with Mrs. Case and their
nephew, William Devoe, a Princeton
College student, who had come on to
witness the Yale Princeton game of foot
ball and spend Thanksgiving with his
uncle and aunt.
At about half past two Mr.. Case retired
and went to sleep almost Immediately.
At seven O'Clock Mrs. Case awoke and
was somewhat surprised at finding her
husband had already risen. She went
into the front room, but could not find
him. She then went to the bathroom,
and finding the door locked, called. Re
ceiying no reply she attempted to open
the door, but could not. She called her
nephew, and the door was forced. Even
then they could open it only about W.

was. they were Mortified to see Mr.. Case
half suspended in some way, they could
not see exactly how. Throwing himself
against the door, Mr.. Devoe forced it
open. They found Mr.. Case dead.
A stout piece of rope was fastened
about his neck, while the other end had
been attached to the catch on the window
over the bath room door,.
Devoe rushed into the street and find
ing Policeman Keilt, took him into the
house. The body was cut down and ii
was found that he had been dead for some
time.
mrs. Case is unable to assign any rea-
son for the suicide. Her married life has
been happy and Mr.. Case always seemed
c%ontented in his home. He is not known
to have had any business troubles and it
is thought probable that he was temper
arily insane. Mr.. Case had a large circle
of friends and moved in good society. The
matter will be Investigated by County
Physician Converse.

FIGHTING FAIR VALUES.
Atlantic City Assessments Raised
from $4,000. 900 to Over
$11,, 100000.

STeCfuG 10 te Jersey Gun NclCS.
ATLANTIC CITY, Nov. 26, 1s91.-A lively
session of the Commissioners of Appeal
on Taxation was begun Wed nesday morn
ing in City Hall. The Board consists of
Messrs r. B. Leeds. John A. Jeffries
and Thomas French, the latter a Demo-
crat.
The chamber was crowded with ag:
grieved taxpayers, who under the new as
Sessment have had their property in
creased enormously in value.
From the the Board was or
ganized the wrangling began and contin-
ued without intermission throughout the
Gay. Assessor William Riddle was pres
ent and bravely defended his tax dupli-
cate, which he had increased from about
81, 500, 900 to over ST., 000, 0C0.
l; was known that mis- plan of assess
ment was somewhat similar to the Henry
George theory, which threw a great deal
OF the tax burden upon large land own
ers, and it was mainly this class that az
peared before the Commissioners.
The Camden and Atlantic Railroad,
through a representative. proceeded to
object to the imposing of a tax upon the
electric street car railway of $3.50, COO, and
the taxing OF other real eStdte to about
$4,000. claiming that the same was taxed
by the State. Assessor Riddle argued
that the railway did not have a charter
from the State to operate its street car
line, and was, therefore, subject to a
municipal tax. The case was laid over,
the Commissioners agreeing to set a day
for the hearing of argument.
The greatest increase occurs on the
beach front, where the valuation upon
twenty-five squares has been increased
from less than $500, 900 to 81 500, 900. The
owners along that thoroughfare have or
ganized and wilt petition in a body, and
If the Commissioners will not reduce the
assessment at least one.third, they pro-
pose to carry it up to the Supreme Court.
The Commissioners will be in session
several days, and will not announce their
decisions in the cases held under advise
ment, until all appeals have been heard.

IT was'a good deal like a Sunday

Yesterday.
Practical Tariff Doctrine.

The New York World New York
edition) showed its customary enter
prise this morning in trying to get
from Messrs. Crisp and Mills definite
statements of their position ON the
tariff, both as a theoretical and prac-
tical question. 1t is noteworthy that
while neither gentleman is anxious to
nail his colors to the mast on the alb
stract principles involved, they are
both well agreed as to the practical
policy which the Democratic party
should pursue for the good of the
country. This is the more remarkable
because Mr. Crisp considers the topic
in the interest of the farmers and Mr..
Mills in that of the workingmen. two
elements which. shallow politicians
often seem to think, have divergent
interests.
So similar in substance and effect
are the expressions of these two great
leaders that they may be regarded as
embodying the true Democratic doc
trine on the tariff issue as a matter of
practical politics. Since these two
are agreed, it may be concluded that
the whole Democracy is agreed-al-
ways excepting the Sun, of course,
which won't agree with anyone-and
the maxims given to the World this
morning may fairly be taken as party
texts. Regarding them in that way,
we print them here, advising every
good democrat to cut them out and
paste them in his hat for future use
and reference.
Mr.. Crisp says
Modify the existing tariff laws; reduce taxa
tio1; permit some reasonable competition in the
msrhet; destroy trusts: accord equal rights to
all ana kpecial privileges 10 none. Do thes.
things and sou viii hep him Give the farmer
