role, i'll which she was perfectly at her

his entrance he received an ovation that
lasted fully two minutes.

presented by an excellent cast. Mr..
Robert beats appeared as Lord Thrill
mere, and Miss Annis Hyatt made a
c charming Sybil Amberly. Mr.. Fred w.
Decker. as Spiggott. an old family butler,
brought out the comic possibilities of the
part to the utmost. and deserved his ap-
plause. MIR. Harry Rossel made a gay
and festive Hopkins, and Mr.. William
Ewald, a page noted for buttons and
bravery. Miss F. Styles aud Miss Hattie
Medole appeared with great success as
friends of Sybil, Miss Lulu Wedin and
Miss Julia Harvey gave a piano overture
and an interlude.

Knownothine Pangborn.

Major Pangborn thinks women are
excluded from New York's Board of
Education because New York is
VIGOROUSLY badly governed. He
thinks their value to the interests of
education do not avail against 'the
contrary orders of Tammany politi-
clans, liquor saloonkeepers and
priests. New York city is governed"
he says, controlled and plundered
by a combination of the powers of
Ignorance, vice, bigotry and foreign
ism, and it is not in the least surpris-
ing that such a combination finds the
the presence on the public school
board of the city of educated, refined
and capable women u~nwelcome."
Why this is Rum, Romanism and
Rebellion" all over again, only not SO
tersely put. Bravo, Major, you here
show your true kidney, for once. You
are a good republican, indeed,-a
bigot in religion, a fanatic in politics,
a knownothing in race prejudice.
You are a fine sample of the rulership
we will have If ever Force bill meth
DDS give your party complete control
of the country.
That the Major should approve of
putting women into public office is
not strange. Such crotchets have
long been recognized as characteristic
of short haired women and long
haired men; but to the average com.
mon sense observer, Mayor Grants
view, coupled with the results of five
years. experiment will settle the ques-
ton the other way.
Pangborn's views are of no import
ance to anybody except as illustrat-
ing the fact that the spirit of DIR.
Burchard still animates the good old
bred in the bone republican.

al Word to Tammanx.

All said and done, Tammany Hall
remains the greatest and best politi-
cal organization in the country. 1t
does more solid good for the people
than all the republicans and all the
mugwumps put together. Would
that we had a Tammany in Jersey
City.
Tammany Hall did its duty nobly
by the Democratic party and the
whole country in the recent contest.
Its answer to the accusations and the
abuse that.were levelled against it was
simply monumental. No man can
breathe a hint of selfishness or dis
loyalty in connection with its name.

THE element in the Democratic
County Committee that the Commit
tee of One Hundred desires to get rid
of. threatens to die hard. 1t appears,
however. from what Mr.. Fielder told
a JERSEY CITY News reporter, that
the process of reorganization of re-
form has been taken in hand by Mr..
Davis. Mr.. Fielder is complying with
his wishes in postponing action until
next month. This being the case, it
is safe to conclude that the business
will go through like creased light
ming.

disreputable about this stove accusa-
ton against DIR. Shain. 1t emanated,
