In speaking of the future of Monmouth
Park, Mr.. a. J.. Cassatt, president of the
Association, said yesterday: Two acts,
the intent and purpose of which have
been 10 ~legaiiZe betting, have been intro
duced and passed in the New jersey As
sembly. One was during the term of
Governor Mcclellan aud the other during
the term OF Governor Green, and both
acts were signed. the first Of these
acts has been declared unconstitu-
tional by the courts of New jersey,
but the last one has yet TO be passed
upon by the highest our in the
State. A case that will settle the question
of the constituti0nality Of this act is now
before the hishest Court, aud although 1t
Is not Il case against the association we
will see it through. II the Court decides
against us hen / do not think there Will
be any racing at Monmouth this summer,
as neither Mr.. Withsrs, Mr.. Scott, Mr..
Wetmore, Mr.. Galway, or myself wish 10
figure as l-awbreakers."
Green Morris, the veteran racing man,
IS IF the opinion that the refusal of the
New Jersey Legislature to consider a
pool bill, is going to knock the spots out
Of the sales Of thoroughDreds in Ken
lucky and this city, and that the price OF
thoroughbred stock will fall of fully 40
| per cent. For his own part. Mr. Morris
says that unless there is racing in New
Jersey he will tax S~trathmeath and
other stars in his stable 10 Washington

Early Girls.

One of the latest absurdities of the
day is the manner in which young
school girls, from fifteen to seventeen,
are allowed to emulate their elder sis
tiers in INDUCING in social dissipa-
tions. During the recent eason there
have not only been dancing classes
but also private cotillions and dinner
parties given for children who should
either be asleep or in the nursery. Ii
dinners are to be given for the
doves as the ''sub-buds' are often
called, what is left of them when they
are introduced into society? 1t is no
wonder that some of the debutantes
of the last few seasons have been
found to be we'll versed in the ways of
the world, and ready to go quite as
far as their elders, when it is consid-
cred hat the bloom of maidenly fresh
ness has been taken off at innumer-
able cotillions, dances, sleighing
parties and dinners. Mothers would
do well to refuse to allow their
daughters so much social liberty while
they are at school, for they will find
if this continues that their buds"
when presented to full-grown society,
lack the nameless charm that ingenu-
business alone gives to young girls

Afraid of Losing Hor Daughter.

A few days ago a lady presenting a
rustic appearance walked into "a large
retail dry goods store. A little girl,
presumably her daughter, followed
her. AS soon as the door closed on

which was about two feet in length.
The piece of leather had a noose on
both ends. She then in a methodical

of the purest pearls given her by the
emperor.
When Napoleon surrendered at
Sedan he requested Count de Mercy
Argenteau to burn the whole of his
carriages, The only relic of this mel
ancholy commission preserved at the
chateau OF Argenteau, on the Meuse,
is "A pane bearing the imperial mono
gram. While detained at Wilhelms-
hoehe the captive monarch begged
the cleverest woman of his court to
come to him, and it was into her sym
pathetic ear that he poured out a
scheme for signing m advantageous
peace with Prussia after his army had
been restored to him.
Napoleon concluded by earnestly
begging the countess to convey a let
ter from him to the Prussian crown
prince.
Protected by "a safe conduct from
Bismarck, and leaving her lady's maid
behind her at Strasburg, she set out
without u moments delay on her soli-
tary and perilous journey northward.
She was compelled to pass one night
in an ambulance wagon, where she
was carefully looked after by q Ger
man nurse, who ultimately proved TO
be a princess in disguise. Having
reached Versailles she introduced her
self TO the crown prince by reminding
him of the very different circum-
stances under which they had once
opened a ball at Wiesbaden.
The future emperor listened cour-
teously to her impassioned pleading,
but replied that the best interests of
Germany forbade the granting of the
request and compliance with Ma
poleon's proposal, even If he had been
able to oblige her personally. She
left his quarters almost broken
hearted.-Chicd9o Herald.

That County Excise BIZ.

The trouble caused by the County
Excise bill has begun. Just as We
expected, this most Objectionable
measure has aroused the active oppo-
sition of the church element and the
hearty anger of every respectable sec
tioz. The Methodist Conference, now
sitting at Trenton, spoke in no uncer-
tain voice upon this subject yester-
day, and we expect, as the various
religious bodies meet, to hear from
them one after another In ~unsparing
denunciation OF the Democratic party.
What matter if the Democracy had
the right of the controversy? 1t held
its own bravely on the liquor ques-
ton when it had reason and justice
and moderation and the true princi-
pie OF local self government on its
side. But when it is simply selling
itself to the rum power. when it is
breaking Its solemn pledges, when it
is overthrowing the good system it
created itself, TO set up a highly OBJ
one, wien IL ID Ut dinpliAS
under foot the principle of local rule
rs embodied i'll the right of local OPP
ton. then indeed the Democratic
party has the worst end of the fight
against the churches. the temperance
societies, and the conservative senti-
ment of the State.
1t is not too late yet to a V the
party. Governor Albeit has a great
opportunity. Let Is hope he will
use it.

Hoid-ovcr Aldermen and the Re-
d~istricting.

IN a letter to the Editor of THE
JERSEY CRY NEWS yesterday. ex-
Judge Seymour raised a nice point re-
garding the coming Aldermanic cleo
ton. Briefly stated it was this: The
recent change in the boundary ines
has placed the residences of two hold
over Aldermen in one district, while
another has no hold-over Alderman
residing within its precincts. The
Judge, therefore, asks whether n OF
these districts is entitled to elect any
Alderman this spring, and whether
the other should elect two, and if so,
whether for two years or not.
The difficulty appears to us to exist
chiefly in the judges legal brain.
When the law authorizing the redis-
trlcting specified that no officers term
should be abbreviated through its
operation. it clearly contemplated the
very ease in point, since the only way
in which it could affect anyone's
term of Office would be by the change
OF his residence from one ulstrlcJ 10
another by the alteration of the
lines.
The intent of the law was evidently
to abrogate, SO far as the special case in
point is concerned, any law or custom
which makes it necessary for or usual
for an Alderman to live in the district
which he represents. We believe the
courts will interpret the law that way
and will hold that each holdover AL
derman win be regarded as represent
ing the district most nearly agreeing,
geographically, with the n for
which he was elected, even though
his residence has been removed from
it through the operation of the Law.
