The Coming Presidential Election.
In the editorial department of the
Century for April there is a discussion
ofmuch interest, says the Review OF
Reviews, on certain features OF the
coming presidential election. The
admission of the twenty electors
from the six new States will increase
the membership of the electoral col
lege to IA, making the number OF
votes necessary to elect 223. Figur-
ing on the elections held since 1888,
the writer calculates that the Repub-
lican absolutely sure" electors will
number 1856, while the Democrats
have certainty of 175 votes, leav-
ing the votes Of New York, Indiana,
Connecticut, Iowa and Massachusetts,
to be apportioned as fate decides.
On this basis he makes some inter-
esting possible combinations.
First, as to the Republican side.

The Team of the Y. M. c. A. Defeated
the Newark Association.
The Prospect Bowling Club is the tiele
of the team of the Newark Y. M. G. A.
Their prospect of winning, however, is
not bright. unless they tackle teams less
skilful than the Jersey City Y. NJ. c. AS
bowlers. The teams met last night on
the Jersey City Associations alleys. The
home team won by 1903 pins. The visitors
made a brilliant dash at the start, while
the home team was slow. The Newark
boys had an advantage of fourteen in
the first frame. forty-seven in the second,
chirty-three in the third and fftv-six
in tine fourth. They smiled and were
happy and they actually entertained the
opinion that they would win. In the
fifth the Jersey City boys began to wake
up and the pins began to fall lively.
When the fifth closed the home team was
only IS behind. In the sixth they had the
lead by II pins. and in the next frame
dissipated all doubt as to the result by
sending the advantage up to SO pins.
From that frame to the end they increased
the ADVANTAGE. The Jersey Citys were
one point better than the average. The
Newark team was eleven points behind.
Williams and Weston had Che top scores.
They were far in the eighty block. Mabie

TRENTON, Feb. 16, 1S92.-The joint COM
mittee appointed to investigate the strike
of the Oxford Iron and Nail employees and
the distress resulting therefrom reported
last night through Senator Cornish. The
committee say that the trouble originated
in the order that the puddlers should
work six heats q day, and that they were
justified in refusing on the ground that
the demand was unjust and unreason-
able. 1t is also set forth as an undisput-
ed fact that the men often turned OUT
more than they were paid for.
As to the charge that the employees were
denied ~sociel, religious and political tree
dom the committee say that the testimony
is contradictory. The committees op1n-
ion is that sin many instances the en-
ployes have been, directly or indirectly.
intimidated, and thus denied the rights,
which, as free citizens, they were entitled
to enjoy without restraint, and that tnelr
objection to this interference with their
vested rights brought about discharge
from employment without just or reason

Another point made is that the men en-
gagged in working in the mines were not
properly protecled, and las a consequence
many were killed or injured" Sne de-
ton of wages, the evils of the company's
store, and the complaints of the men
against Superintendent Lukens are
treated of, and the committee conclude
with recommendations in favor of the APP

THE. ROBBER.
In Truth A DrOll Story And A

tThe author Of this story, Guy de Maupas-
sant, has recently become insane.l
"When l tell you, you will not be-
lieve me-"
"Never mind; tell us, all the same"
"Willingly, but l feel the necessity Of
first declaring that my story is true in
every particular, improbable as it seems.
Artists alone viii not be surprised, par
ticularly those who lived in that period
when the spirit of fun and frolic per-
vaded artist life, even in the most seri-
GUS circumstances"
This conversation took place in the
salle-a-manger of the Hotel de Barbison
among a lot of students.
The old artist who had just spoken
placed himself astride his chair and con-
tinued:
Well, we had dined that evening with
Sorieul. Poor fellow, he is now dead!
There were only three of us-Sorieul,
LIE Poittevin and myself. Sorieul was
the widest of us all, and to say we had
dined at his house signifes-we were all
drunk. LIE Poittevin alone retained his
senses-a little cloudy, it is true-still he
knew what he was doing. All! we were

about battles and the uniforms worn dur

Results of the Games Bowled for the
Gold Watch.
The individual bowling tournament
was continued last night at Dukes alleys.
Five sets of games were rolled and excel
lent scores were made. One of the odd
features Of the games was the bowling of
Chrystal. who could scarcely beat a hum
bred in his match against Wickham, and
in the very next series with Brill he
rolled up close to the two hundred mark
and defeated Brill, who bowled we'll,
while Wickham, who won the first series
bowled badly. Brill easily vanquished
Wickham in the opening series. Ahner
and Hermann had a lively buckle, which
the former won. Holcomb and Wickham
had to roll the odd game to settle the
series, and Holcomb with I'll defeated his
opponent by ten pins. Wickham. with
scores of ia and 125 won the fourth
series from Chrystal, while Brill, with
totals of 100 and 17S. failed to beat Chrys-
