The defendants claim that they are
shore owners, and that the act Of 1872
recognizes a right in them as such. in the
tract granted, which the city must ex-
tingufsh. This fact they say arises from

Corners to the said lands"
10 this we reply, in the first place, that
they are not shown to be shore owners.
The case shows cease p. 85) that in 1887
Cornelius Van Worst was in possession Of
the entire shore opposite the tract in
No possession or deed from him
was shown by the defendants.
They did, indeed. show deeds to them by
other persons, made In recent years, for
the entire frontage of the shore. but the
intermediate title was not given, and no
proof whatever of possession of the grant
ors was offered. This defect of title is
not urged merely as a defect which may
be supplied, but it is substantial. The
title of this shore has always been dis
puted, and the Court may rely upon it
that the failure of the defendants to pro-
duce the entire title was no mere over
sight. The maps show that the Morris
Canal runs along a large portion of the
shore directly involved, and there Is no
pretence that the defendants have the
Canal Company's title. We refer to the
maps
But supposing the defendants to be
shore owners, this act gives them no
title to the lands under water, nor
any rights they did not have
before, nor any right Of presumption. The
general riparian laws require the Ripar-
ian Commissioners to give shore owners
such a presumption, but the State Is not
compelled to do SO. This is settled be-
yond question in this State in Stevens VS..

decisions.
1t is probable that this proviso does not
refer to any supposed rights Of the shore
owners in lands under water at al, but
only in rights to the shore, for 1t is evil
dent from the act itself that it was not
quite certain in the mind of the drafts

The Athletes Were Beaten by Eight
Pins in the League Game.
The Jersey City Athletic Clubs wheel
men met with an unexpected defeat last
night. The reverse may deprive them of
the championship, and the honor may go
again to the Atlanta Wheelmen. The
Athletes are not out of the race. Had
they won last evening they would I'M
doubtedly have captured first prize.
The defeat Ewas inflicted by
the Hudson County Wheelmen at Guests
alleys. The Wheelmen bowled much
better than usual. but did not put up a
high total. The reverse vas due to the
inferior work of the Athletes. Jim New
kirk was the only ma on the team who
bowled over the average. He had eighteen
better thar the mark. Scudder, Field
and Biederhase just reached triple
figures. The game was full of excite
ment. The teams ran u neck and neck
race. Another strike or spare would
have given the victory to the Athletes, as
the Wheelmen won by only eight pins.

struck him and he was thrown beneath
the wheels.

SECRET BALLOT.
Minogue and the People.

The taxpayers of Shenandoah may be
compelled to pay higher taxes this year, but
they had lots of fun with County Solicitor
Mnogue.
The taxpayers of Shenandoah had lots of
fun with County Solicitor Minogue on
Thursday evening. They held a meeting
for the purpose of adjusting the assessment
of property and to protest against the way
the assessors have been working under the
Commissioners directions as exemplifed
by Mr.. Minogue.
That gentleman had some hard questions
put him and he ended his argument in
favor of full valuation by thoroughly
mixing his theory. He tried to show that
it was fair to assess property at $50, 900
because it originally cost that much,
though it was afterward sold for only
$40, 600 and then said that property which
cost 50, 600 should be assessed at Sl3 900 if
that amount was offered for it.
The full valuation may be very fair in
the minds of the G unity Commissioners
and their genial solicitor, but the people
continue to have an entirely different
opinion. .-Pottsviie Chronicle
