JERSEY AT THE FAIR.
Her Building Late in Coming, But
Will Hold Its Own-Nota-
BILE Features.

In a letter to the Newark Sunday Call,
ing facts about the New Jersey build
ing:r
"The people of New Jersey are natural
ly interested in knowing the actual stage
of construction their State building has
reached at the Chicago Fair. They have
not been entirely satisfied about their
headquarters at the Exposition. They
promptly and we'll did their part, making
an early appropriation and increasing it
without hesitation when deemed neces-
sary. Consequently, they could not I'M
derstand why the building was SO long in
being begun. in actually getting under
way. State after State wheeled into line,
and the newspapers were full of their
buildings going up so fast; but our own
State. one of the first to have the cash in
hand, Still Jagged behind.
AT last, however, our house was really
begun. and now begins to look as If we,
too, would be ready for the opening of
the exposition. l am just in receipt of
information about the present condition
of New jerseys headquarters, and am
much pleased to be able to give it to all
interested.
The framework of the building is up.

nearly completed and the windows ready
for the sash. Part of the exterior cover

is being particularly rushed. in anticipa-
ton of the severe weather which must be
very soon expected IN Chicago. The four
chlmneyS are built-the great wide one of
>the central hall or grand reception room
forming a notable feature Of the building.
AS construction progresses it becomes
more and more evident that, while our
clnhhOnGp-aQ fha Stpfa h1iIJirfr- r
generally called-is comparatively small,
its historical snd picturesque character
renders it one Of the most notable on the
exposition grounds. Some far larger,

of his pig, Tho little, we're old Our
location, too, is excellent. being near the
main avenue from the north entrance TO

condition of the construction of the
building that it will be completed proba-

in starting than we. Virginia is lust

Missouri was one of the first to begin her

THE TABERNACLE FAIR.
Ladies Hustling and the Happy
Men Paying the Peoples
Palace Piper.

The hustling proclivities of the ladies,
the pastor, the assistant pastor and the
parishioners generally of the Tabernacle
were never more theoretically displayed
than they are at the present time. On
Monday evening the mammoth Taoer-
nacle fair was opened. Last night was
the second night of its existence and II
such a thing were possible, the ladies
looked prettier, the gentlemen were better
natured, the booths looked more attrac-
tive. and mora useful articles were ex-
hibited in p~rofusion upon the tables than
on the previous evening. One had but to
say what article was desired. aid in a
jiffy he was whisked off TO some corner
of the connecting buildings aud it was
| placed before lin. It would be a breach
of trust to disclose what the prices were,
but to the readers of The JERSEY CITY
NEWS this Tip" is given:-Everythiug is
| cheap and a choice variety is given to
choose from.
1t is almost bewildering to walk
through the man rooms. The induce
ments to entrust ones wealth with the
fair merchants increases in strength as
one passes from one to the other. Once
incide, there is no escape. To write your
name on one substitution book after an
other is a luxury. A kind of frenzy of
expenditure takes hold of a mar. But
you get the equivalent, not only i'll
| Heavenly prospects, but even in earthly
goods. It's all a chance with the odds in
your favor.
Last night the rooms were packed with
purchasers. Giddy youths fouud but
little difficulty in leaving behind them
their weeks salaries. But the pleasant
smiles, the arguments of the charming
saleswomen repaid them. Pleasure and
business are combined by the ladies, but
the watchful eyes of. Pastor Scudder and
Mr.. Wells are always upon the move, and
like 'Jane" one can hear them
murmur az they pass, This is business,
you know" The subject is changed at
once, and to retain the fair one a dollar at
least must be added to the Peoples Palace
fund.
Pastor Scudder has instituted a new
feature. 1t IL a shadow entertainment,
and. needless to say, 1t is we'll patronized.
Tomorrow evening an entertainment will
precede the opening of the fair. and fancy
| articles will be offered for sale at prices
to suit any purchaser. The fair goes mer-
rily on, and the proceeds promise 10 ex-
coed the conductors expectations.

HIGH PRICED CARTING.

Alderman Salinger Shows Up the Bill
for Moving Election Booths.
Alderman Day. for the Election Com
mittee, presented claims aggregating
1875 for the delivery of the booths for the
recent election to the Board Of. Aldermen
last evening. Five booths were delivered
in each of the seventy-ive precincts and
the bill was computed at the usual al
lowance, 81 a booth. Alderman Day
moved that the claims be allowed.
Alderman Salinger objected TO voting
on the bills in mass. and called for a vote
upon each claim separately.
Alderman Day said that the people who
moved the booths must be paid. The de-
livery would cost less than a year ago and
it gave better satisfaction.
Alderman Salinger declared that some
of the claims were mot only e~xtravaganI
but fraudulent" and he in sisted tina
they be voted on separately. One claim
was for $50. another for $50 and another
for $40 and he had a right to kno W what
he wa voting for.
Alderman McCoobery said he could not
understand how the Alder man could
question the integrity of t he Election
Committee. Ample opport unity was
given to examine the bills.
The motion to order the bills paid wa:
called for, but Alderman Salinger essayed
to speak again.
President Allen ruled that Alderman
Salinger had already spoken twice, aud
despite the latter's loud protest the motion
was put.
When Alderman S%alinger's turn to vote
came he declared that he knew The bills
were not only extravaganza but fraudu-
lent, but you,' said he to President
Allen, TASK ms to vote for them"
President Allen raped loudly.
The motion was carried, six TO three,
Aldermen Dussnberry, Salinger ami
Lahey voting against it.

1t is a very good one too. Senator
Hudspeth is well equipped for the
bench; Judge Puster is an excellent
man for Corporation Attorney and
Norman l.. Rowe would be just and
painstaking as a District Court
Judge.
But how is it going to be done? The
law says that Mayor Wanser shall APP
point Mr.. Hudspeth's successor. Will
he appoint Judge Puster?
Or are we to seriously understand
that an attempt will be made at the
coming session to rob Mayor Wanser
of all the power that the people
clothed him with at the last election?
