sIyIes Aroon at the Academy.
A passing glance around the house last
evening was enough to convince the most
Indifferent observer of w. J.. Scanlan's
popularity with the Academy patrons.
From beginning to end "Myles Aroon,''
the play in which he appears this week,
was thoroughly enjoyed. And the Incl
dental songs, which are his own compo
sition, were sung with an enthusiasm
which was delightful. The swinging song
was especially taking.
The plot OF the play centres around
Myles, who is q gardiner in the employ OF
the wealthy Lady Glover. Maggie Far
rell, his sweetheart, is nursery maid 70
little Nellie, her daughter. Raymond
Thurston. the squire, is anxious to marry
Lady Glover, but is too poor to do SO.
She loses o valuable bracelet, which he
finds and determines to turn into the
necessary lucre. Further. he has little
Nellie Kidnapped and taken to an old
witch's, hoping by returning her to her
mother to win her love. Through him
the theft is fastened upon Myles, who is
conscious of a conspiracy against him,
and who determines to clear himself at
any cost. Some very amusing scenes
thus develop. n OF course Myles IS VIC
torious In the end.
w. j. Seaman as Myles was excellent,
and where could he have found a prettier.
saucier sweetheart than his Maggies
Constance Wallace as Nellie Glover was
throughout childish and charming. The
other members of the cast in their respec-
tive roles were very good. The scenery
was especially noticeable, and at times
fine, and the costumes, with one or two
exceptions, were very pretty.
s'Myles Aroonn Will only play one week,
with regular matinee5.

Hallinger Held Responsible for Mary
Peterson's Death by n Coroner's Jury.
Coroner Parslow and q jury on which
were two colored men held an inquest
into the death of Mary Peterson the VIC
tim in the Hallinger murder case last
night at Roche's Hall.
Samuel Moore, the landlord of the
premises in which Mrs. Peterson was
murdered, testified That on Sunday morn
ing, April 8, Hallinger knocked at the
door OF his house and demanded TO see
Mrs. Peterson, who, when she knew Hal
finger was at the door, screamed "Bor
God sake don't let him In" Hallinger
burst his way into the room, and Moore
went to looK for a policeman, but found
none, and when he returned Hallinger
said "I've killed her, the -"
Mrs. Moore testified substantially as her
husband. =,
Rosa Mccall OF No. 81 Sixth street said
that Mrs. Peterson formerly lived at her
house, and that Hallinger came search
ing for her on the day of the murder con-
siderably under the influence of liquor.
Chief Murphy and Captain Kelly tsstl-
of the murderer.
DR.. Converse sent in a typewriter aft
dayit, in which he said hat Mrs. Peter
son looked more like the victim of a rail
way accident than of a murderer. She
had twenty-five wounds on the head,
arms and shoulders.
The jury, after celebrating about i've
minutes, returned a verdict stating that
Mary Peterson came to her death at the
hands of Edward Hallinger on the morn
ing of April 5. at No. 317 Third street.

The Roof of the New Pennsylvania
Depot Nearly Completed.
The traveller" as the workmen en-
ployed upon the new Pennsylvania Rail-
road station call the huge movable scat
fold which they use in erecting the
MASSIVE iron spans, was moved yeste rday
morning for the last time. Work was
then begun on the last span, and wnen it
is completed h scaffold will be taken to
pieces.
Two hundred workmen on Sunday put
window glass in two sections OF the roof
and nearly completed the construc-
ton of seven passenger platforms. These
platforms or walks are built of wood. and
will be replaced later by stone, marble or
concrete passenger ways.
The plans for the waiting oom Of the
new depot in this city are completed and
work will soon be commenced upon the
building. The new waiting room will be
almost double the size OF the present one
and will be fitted up with all modern i'm
provements and -conveniences. 1t will be
one of the largest In the country as we'll
as the handsomest and most convenient
to the travelling public.
One of the innovations which the new
depot will contain and one which will be
highly appreciated by the patrons of the
road will be a bureau of information.

Election Day.

The splendid Democratic victory at
Trenton may be taken as an'earnest
of the result in Jersey City today, and
a guarantee that the public sentiment
on the tissues of the hour has not
changed since last November, when
the great Democratic tidal a swept
over the State. 1t is a little dissap-
pointing to find that Paterson and
Passaic are not in line /; but the cleo
tions In these two places have turned
altogether on local issues. and the re-
suits were not unexpected. In
Trenton, the national issues acquired
a local cogency through the labor
troubles which are affecting that city.
The result there was likewise
not unexpected. With hundreds
Of workmen all but starving
through the greed of their political
bosses, it was not hard to forecast
what the verdict of Trenton's citizens
would be. Not only will the Mayor
of that city be a democrat hereafter,
but the Board of Freeholders of Mer-
Ger county will be controlled by Dem
ocrats. The victory is complete.
In this city the indications now are
that the vote will be painfully small.
This is anything but honorable to the
citizens. Whether Democrats or Re-
publicans, it is their duty and their
interest to go to the polls, and the
tone of public affairs will never be
thoroughly healthy until every voter
makes the casting Of his vote just as
much his business as the taking up OF
his note.
We presume, when Mr.. Allen is
elected, the disgruntled Republican
viii be abroad in the land announc-
ing that the voters of his party took
no interest in the election, that they
stayed at home, but that if they had
taken the trouble to walk around to
the polls they would have showed the
Democracy out of sight. The fewer
speeches of that sort we hear the bet
ter. The man who makes them con-
dennis. his own party as criminally
remiss in its public duties. We could
wish to see a law which would compel
every man to vote, and we would be
quite willing to stand the hazard Of
the die, so far as the Democracy is
concerned.
