WHERE WAS THE AUDIENCE.
A Question that is not Easily An
sWered.

Scattered through the columns Of the
Republican organ yesterday were no
tees inviting everyone to attend
grand Republican rally to be held in
the West schoolhouse last evening.
Part of the rally showed up in the per-
son of two orators who didn't crate,
and four or five would-be listeners. who
did not have chance to listen. There
are either no Republicans in the Third
ward, or the journal is poor advertis-
ing medium. 1t was whispered lately
that the Third ward was Republican
solid-sure. FizZle No. 2. Next!

LONDON, June 25.-It is reported at
Brighton that Parnell has married Mrs.
O'Shea to-day. Everything tends to
confirm the repost as the lady joined
Parnell while he was en- route to Strin-
ing at which place they were seen to-
gether during the afternoon. The vicar
of the parish of Strining denies that
Parnell and Mrs. O'Shea were married
at his church, but he added that they
could be married at any of "a dozen
churches in the district
1t is stated that Parnell and his bride
started for parts unknown immediately
after the marriage at Strining.

Eugene Emley.

The young men of Passaic
County have many reasons for TAX
ing special interest in the cleo
ton of Eugene Emley who on
Monday was formally ushered into
the political arena as the Republi-
can candidate for Senator. He is
young himself in years, but not in
experience and all his political e.
perience is one unbroken chain of
courageous and conscientious man.
illness. He has not only proven
his honesty and fidelity, but has
displayed accomplishments that
fit him peculiarly for the Office he
is seeking. During his brief term
in the Legislature few years ago,
he raised himself from the ranks
unaided by outside influence until
he attracted the attention of the
whole State as a leader on his side
of the house, ready champion of
good measure, and fearless foe
Of corruption in every form. He
is not the kind of a Republican
who will wink at Republican
wrong-doing, nor will he counte
nance inaction when great and
dangerous issues confront the
party. 1t was his courage on the
liquor question that brought about
his defeat in the Senatorial fight
three years ago, and defeat under
the circumstances was far NOR.
humiliating to the people of Pas
sale County than to him. His cour-
age in that canvas, the fearlessness
with which he proclaimed his
principles, the ability displayed in
managing his campaign and the
fortitude with which he bore defeat
won the admiration even of bis
enemies. This accounts for his
present strength and will result,
we hope, in his triumphant cleo
ton next November.
Such man cannot fail to ap-
peal to the young men, not of his
own party alone, but of all parties
They admire courage and abhor
such unholy alliances as that
which accomplished his defeat in

DEsIRABLE FoR LADIES.

The new Fashion Journals published
by A. Mcdowell & Co., 4 West I4th
Street, New York, are again on our
table The superiority of these journals
is abundantly shown on every page.
LA Mode is the smallest of the three,
and is intended for family use 1t has
many styles for children, and is only
ST.. Sc per year, or IS cents per copy.
sLa Mode de Paris" is.an elegant jour
nal. filed with everything of the latest
style in Paris. This is a great favor1te
with ladies who wish to keep posted in
the new styles as they come out. AL
bum des Modes is also popular Pari-
sian publication, many ladies giving it
the preference. 1t is replete with such
styles as are patronized by the middle
classes, its designs being neat and plain,
yet all of the richest character. These
three monthly journals claim to give the
earliest fashions, and they are all printed
in Paris. They contain lessons in prac-
teal dressmaking, which are of incom-
parable value and easy to understand.
sLa Mode de Paris" and the album
des Modes" are each $3.50 per annum,
or 35 cents for single copy Samples
can be obtained from the house at sin
gle copy prices if there is any difficulty
in obtaining them from newsdealers.

Going a Cunning.

Now that the cunning season
has already drawn and is still
drawing sportsmen every where
out into the country fields under
the clear sky of each autumns S day,
it is probable that the usual list of
casualties will be recorded, unless
the amateur hunter displays far
more caution and prudence than
he has been wont to show in the
past 1t is deplorable fact that
the great majority of the accidents
which happen in the hunting field
are due to wanton, outrageous and
inexcusable ignorance and care
lessness. The man who "did not
know it was loaded" and VINO
blows off the top of his compan-
ions head indoors, is often but a
shade more culpable than the i'd
lots who are sometimes allowed to
risk the lives of their companions
on days sport.
The feasibility of passing game
laws which shall protect sports
men as we'll as the game from the
destruction and damage caused by
ignorance or stupidity may not
present itself in practical way at
present, but it may be doubted
whether such a law might not re-
suit in commendab1e saving of
life. As matters now stand there
is practically no obstacle in the
way of any would-be sportsman
who wishes to jeopardize the lives
OF half dozen men by going out
for a days shooting without the
slightest knowledge of or training
| in the correct methods of carrying
loaded firearm. In most instan-
ces the accidents of the, field are
due to ignorance rather than will
flil neglect, but even that ignor-
ance can hardly be considered ex-
| cusable in view of the fact that it
is but moments work to commit
to memory few rules for hold
ing and carrying fearms. Such
rules can be obtained from any
sportsman, who will be only too
glad to furnish them to the novice
in game hunting.

ChautauQua.

Now that its summer assemblies
are over there have been sixty
of them,) the great popular uni
versity is taking hold of its annual
course of reading and study.
This is the american year" Of the
course, and it is safe to say that
from October to June there will be
many more earnest students look
ing into our national history, in
stitutions, and literature than ever
before.
Besides that personal culture,
and that social fellowship which
the Circle enables its members to
secure, there will be no mean out
come for the nation, in that the
years reading must greatly con-
tribute toward an improved cit
izensh1p.
AS unfortunately large proper
ton of American voters know next
to nothing about our national his
tory and literature. 1t is to be
hoped that this local circle which
Rev. Mr.. Crawford is organizing
will, during the year, do something
in the way of University Exten-
sion for the general educational
interests of the city.
A course of popular lectures on
American history and institutions,
so placed as to be within the reach
of our poorest and least informed
citizenship, would be a great pub

Postmasters and Business Men

A source of no little annoyance
to business men is the obscure
postmark on many letters received
from country towns owing to
the carelessness of the postmaster
in not properly stamping his
mail. Oftentimes also the cores
pondent neg1ects to head his letter
and the only means left in that
case to indentify the writer is the
postmark. 1t should be the partic.
ular duty of all postmasters to OBJ
serve the regulation compelling a
plain and legible mark to be
placed on letters to denote the
place of mailing. In many cases
the frank is used for cancelling
stamps, which should not occur as
then the only possibility of read
ing the mark is gone. Postmast
ers, if they desire to serve the
large number of business houses
daily receiving a great amount of
correspondence from interior
towns, would do well to exercise
more care in this detail of their
work.

carried ashore, and as the boat pulled out

fate. His slayers then struck out across
country to intercept Sheriff Derrick and his
nine prisoners. Heading them of they de-
manded of the Sheriff his prisoners. He and
the two deputies with him could not cope
with the determined body of men which con-

sixty cents per hundred. Until then pickers
on other plantations were satisfied with their

A DARING TRAIN ROBBERY,
An Express Car Rified at the Point of
Revolver.

An Express Car Rffed at the Point OF
Revolver.
A train robbery, with nearly all the thrill.
ing features that accompany such events in
the wild West, took place about A. N. on Q
Central Hudson railroad train between Al
bany. NY, and Little Falls, on train No.
81, solid American Express train Of six
cars which left New York at $50 at night,
bound for Chicago.
At the hour named E. A. Moore, OF Buffalo,
q trusted messenger OF the express company,
who had been in its employ fifteen years,
suddenly realized toe fact that a stranger
stood over him. with two revolvers pointed
at his head, and demanded the surrender OF
his revolver and the key OF the safe.
Moore wasstaken wholly by surprise, and
as the robber had taken his revolver. he had
to give up the key of the safe. The robber
then opened the safe, took out all the money
it contained, about Sl000 and cutting the
hose of the air brake. brought the train
nearly to a standstil and jumped of, start
ing in northeriy direction
AS soon as possible Moore made known to
the other men on the train what bad taken
place and they made a search to see how the
robber got into the car. There was no mys-
terry about it, for hole large enough to ad-
init mans body was found cut Through the
forward end OF the car. 1t was about six
teen inches square and had been cut out with
an auger and saw. Once the intruder got
inside he was concealed from the messenger
by the freight and could watch the mes
senger without being seen himself. Ho
waited until Moore was making out certain
way bills and had him covered with the pfs-
tolls and at his mercy The car that was
robbed was the last one in the train.
