OF the club will be held the first Fri
day in August. The entertainment :
committee promise the boys a glorit
Gus time on the occasion OF the open
ing entertainment In October. The
very best talent is being secured for
this occasion.

Eye have Just returned FROM two
weeks fishing excursion In Maine.
Both gentlemen are well tanned, and
state that they had glorious time.

sey City Athletic Club has been over
whelmed with letters Of thanks for
for the treat at Ell Dorado last Mon

rotary of the Palisade Amusement
Company and the invitation to the
club to visit the show was brought
about by him.
a party of about fifty members who
failed to accept Mr.. Doubleday's in
vitation will attend the performance

The latest fad among the club boys
is to wear club embleins and badges
on the lower left hand side OF the vest

have originated with Mr. Dusenbery
A full rehearsal of the chorus of
1.-THE Gondoliers, !" to be presented in
November by the Jersey City Ath-
letic Club, was held Friday night.
The entire cast for this production
has not as yet been selected. Mr..
Frank Riley, who has charge of the
chorus, is overburdened with applica-
tons from enterprising amateurs.
The members OF the Federal Club
have not vet decided to sue the Della
ware, Lachawana and Western Rail-
road Company for its failure to com
ply with the agreement made regard
ing the excursion to Rockland Lake.
The next out of door entertainment
to be given by the Federal Club will
be lawn party unless the present

eral Club to have the trees in front of
the building properly trimmed and
grated.
One of the jolliest quartettes in the
Palma Club is composed OF Assistant
Water Registrar Joseph Farmer,
John Powers, H. r. Ives and w.
Baron. These young gentlemen are
at the club every night, and after ex-
ploding all the new jokes heard or
read during the day, adjourn to the
Little Church Around the Corner
The meetings of this church are
usually well attended.

member of the J. G. A. c., is endeav-
oring to break the one mile record on
the home train (wheeD in the gym
Watson is very clever
rider.
Mr.. Leon Schermerhorn, a promin-
ent member of the same club is off on
a tour through New York State on
new wheel recently purchased. He
intends taking a run of about two
hundred and fifty miles.
Mr.. Charles Gates. a recently elected
member of the Jersey City Athletic
Club made his first appearance at the

sented to a number of the members
by Mr. Dusenbery.

LONDON. July is. 1891. MIR. Gladstone's
letter to Mr.. Brand, the Liberal candidate
in the House of Commons for tho Wis
bech division of Canbridgeshire, made
vacant by the withdrawal Of Capt. Sell
wyn, Conservative, has sent SILVER of
fear through the Liberal party. In this
letter Mr.: Gladstone frankly avows mis-
physical incapacity to speak in public for
months to come. He says
Ny physician will restrain me for some
months TO come from the public use OF
my voice. hope the election will be an
additional proof that the country is deter.
mined to shake off the Incubus Of the
Irish question"
The prospect Of losing the most potent
voice in all England in their special need
of it during the coming electoral srrug-
gle is simply appalling to the Liberals.
Notwithstanding the inherent strength
of their cause with the people, Mr.. Glad
stone had arranged to speak at Newcas-
tie, and then, after a rest, TO open the
campaign at Midlothian, and fight his
famous battles all over again.

A LEATHER MEDAL FOE THE SITE
SEERS.

To the Editor Of the Sunday Morning Netrs:--
According to the reported news, the
City Hall Commission has at last found a
site. AS this is a public matter, it's &C.
ton is open to criticism 1t took years
and money to do what the Commission
ers say "is at last DONE" and /, with hun
dreds, DISAGREE with their Judgment The
site chosen is entirely unfit TOR the cree
ton of any massive or expensive build
ing. The price named for the purchase
of the property is entirely too high, and
after all the frame structures on the plot
are RACED it will cost an enormous sum to
pile it, as the sunken timbers will have to
be driven so thick that nearly all the
made land will disappear. Many more
fitting localities were ignored for this
site. Think of the grand. mossive and
imposing building that could be erected.
running from the Hudson County Bank
building neatly to Trinity Church on
York street and running through TO
Grand street. There could be two beau
tiful fronts on this elevated ground
which could be kept as a park. There
wouid be found thousands of dollars
worth OF material on this property, which
could be bought for smaller sum than
those skilled site hunters We're so liberal

county organization are outraged at
the independence shown by the vari-
Gus city committees in running their
local affairs to suit local ideas and
interests. This does not suit the high
priests Of strong government and CEN
tralized power, of course. They want
to run things themselves down TO the
smallest details of ward politics, to
dicker and deal so that all the fat
thin Offices and contracts and the
like-may come their way.
Therefore the party in this county
is to be recognized. The last vestige
Of local autoAomy is to be wiped out.
The iron heel Of the County Com
mittee and its bosses is to be set on
the neck Of the local organizations.
They are to be stamped out of exist
ance, or rather they are to be gobbled,
swallowed up in the jaws of the politi-
cal Moloch.
But the characteristic feature Of the
performance is the effort to parade
the proceeding as one of reform and
regeneration. The tom-tom is to be
beaten and a great shouting is to be
raised. The party is being reorganized,
forsoothi and victory is TO come and
light on her whitewashed standards
This is very nice indeed. 1t would
have done two years ago. But now

Career of tho New York Crook Found
Dead in London.
George f. Parker. who shot himself
day. before yesterday in London. was the
crook who as Gentleman George gained
extensive notoriety in New York city
by wholesale robberies of gnllible seekers
after fortune. His picture IS /, 729 In the

George set his trap for an unwary public.
It was in the latter part of 1856 that
letters were scattered broadcast through
the country from the Stewart building,
Offering the assistance of the British
American Claim Agency to claimants
for inheritances in the English and Con-
tinental courts
The facilities OF the agency for obtain
ing Information and pushing claims were
unequalled, so the circular said, and It's
rates reasonable. The name OF George
4. Parker was subscribed as President
and General Manager. and adorned the
door behind which fourteen pretty type
writers worked INCREASINGLY on the cor
respondence of the concern. that some

ANOTHER CANDIDATE HEARD FROM.

From the P1atlipsbarg Democrat.
Ex-Congressman Pidcock has not
been as much talked of in the press
for the Governorship as the others
named, but among politicians who
look below the surface, there is q
quiet, growing belief that he will be
the next Democratic candidate. The
talk about Adrain is thought to really
mean Pidcock. The big Four that
WELD such a potent influence in the
Democratic party in this State, and
OF which Pidcoek is one, will eventu-
ally unnask behind the Pidcock ban
ner, and then will follow such a
hustling canvass as will put all the
other Candidates in the background
Such is the DRIFT of opinion with the
knowing ones, and it certainly has
plausible grounds to build upon. OF
'sthe powers that be" that now con-
troll the Democratic politics of this
State, Mr.. Pidcock. without question,
is an Important factor. He is one of
them and to promote and continue
that control, would they not be more
likely to select one of their own num-
Der, where one is available, than an
outsider? Mr.. Pidcock NAV not con-
clude to be a candidate, out if he be
an aspirant it will be safe to place
him in the No class. He has lots of
friends who wish him to try his
chances but he is not one of the
kind to do it unless he sees the prize
within reach.

Stalled than the rest of the world to
learn yesterday that His Holiness Pope
Leo XIII. had on Thursday been seized
with q serious Illness. The announce

accompanied by any particulars as to the
nature of the malady which had so sui

Gus by Starvation.
DoBBs FERRY, n. Y. July IS, 1S9l.-The
Italians who have terrorized this town
for the past week are being furnished
money to leave here. All but fifty have
gone.
The whole trouble arose through the
failure of contractors to pay their labor
ers. About two mouths ago the Dobbs
Ferry Land and Improvement Company
purchased the Courtlandt Palmer estate,
near this. village. and laid the land out
into building lots and streets. Andrew
Q. Eieh and Assemhlyman Charles p.
McClelland are the principal officers of
the company. They employed Italians to
grade the land and failed to pay them.
The Italians lived on stale bread and
beer, and when there was no more of
those they became ferocious. A riot was
prevented by the tact Of the women of the
village, who sent food TO the Italians
