THE GRIPPE,s HEEE AGAIN

But the Symptoms Are Differert and
It's Not So Severe.
Some people may be alarmed when they
learn that the grippe is with us once
more. although ia q slight degree only.
In an interview vita DE-. w. P. Watson.
Secretary Of the State Boara Of Exs-
miners, he said that he had had several
cases in the past month and although
they were the genuine grippe yet the
symptoms differed slightly from those OF
last year.
These latter attacks are more severe
but last shorter time than formerly and
do not seem TO take such hold upon the
patient The subjects now are all young
people and no rslapses have occurred SO
far and the disease does not seem 70 be
epidemic None of the cases has lasted
more than ten days and many Of them
only thres or four. The first symp-
toms are slight catarrh followed
by the spreading Of the irritation 10 the
bronchial tubes and the rest OF the
breathing tubes. DIR. Watson thought
there was no likelihood of there being an
epidemic similar 10 thar OF last year, but
said that number of the patients mad
never thoroughly recovered from the
disease which fastened itself upon them
then.

Republicans Of this district who are
oflice-seekers, should secure positions
through Mr.. Buchanan, there would not
be single man from any other district
Ia the State.
In this district You can hear the same
hue and cry that comes from the First,
plenty OF promises bnt very little atten-
ton paid to them after election is over.
Congressman Buchanan s LATEST trouble
in this county is the postoffice squabhle in
this place. aud this free-for-aA rush is
only fair sample of Republican greed
for office. There are at this time seven
tried and true Republicans willing to
take the postof1ice, and not only willing,
but pushing heaven and eartn TO get
there This state of affairs, of course, is
rather perplexing 60 MIR. Buchanan, and
leading Republicans have come to his
aid by suggesting that special eiectio u
be held TO decide which Que of the faith
full shall get the prize. This election has
been fixed for one week from today. and
it is Understood that nearly all of the
candidates are willing to abide by the re-
suit OF the election.

The window Casing Had to Be Taken

The late Mrs. Mohls of Linden avenue,
Greenville, whose death was announced
In THE JERSEY CITY NEWS, weighed 4l2
pounds. She had the distinction of being
the heaviest woman in Greenville, and
probably in Jersey City. The coffin in
which she was buried was feet long, 8
feet wide and feet high. 1t required ten
strong men to lift the coffin at the
funeral services. An unlocked for
difficulty presented itself wnen the pail
bearers attempted TO carry her body
through the front door. To the horror Of
all the coffin was too big. Mr.. Mohl was
in a dilemma until someone suQges ted
that they try to pass the coffin through
the parlof window. This was tried, but
the window was found to be too narrow
by about three inches A carpenter was
immediately seut for, who took the frame
ous of its place, and thus hole large
enough for the coffin to pass through was
at last secured. The coffin was then
lifted through the window and the inter-
rupted funeral party proceeded on its
way to the cemetery.

NEWARK, Jan. 10, 1s9l.--Some new feas
lures OF considerable momenE have
sprung up IN the o. N. T. spinners' strike
since yesterday. It was stated last night
on good authority that four spinners had
arrived and were housed III the factory
The strikers now. however. affirm that
they have information to show that no
spinners have arrived at the mills. bnt
that special officers have arrived to repre-
sent spinuers. and that they have been
employed BY the CIarks, or some Of their
agents. to harrass the strikers.
Even If spiuDers have been procured.
there seems no doubt that a number Of
specials have also arrived Yesterday
beds and bedding for fourteen uaen were
procured from e. II. Roots establish
ment, at 30. 4S8 Broad street, and sent
TO the house on Ogden street. The spin
nefs assert that several other firms were
asked to send bedding, but refused 70 do
so.

The man produced card Of Fuller's

As there VIII be eighth districts under
the new apportionment. the unit of rep
resentation will be $50, 1877. The united
population of Essex and Hudson counties
by the Federal census is 590. 515. which is
very nearly the exact population required
to constitute three districts. An equita-
BILE division will therefore divide the new
district between those two counties. each
of which now elects Que member. The
remaining problem is therefore to ar
range the other districts SO that they
