WARRANTS FOR JOHN DOE,

At our last city election law-abiding
citizens were arrested at the polls on war
rants drawn against John Doe, brought
before justice and made to give bail. Any
earnest Republican who made himself
conspicuous at the polls was liable to be
arrested on warrant charging John
Doe" with having falsely registered. This
kind of warrant" is discountenanced by
respectable police justices. The other day
in New York City Gardner. the agent of the
Society for the Prevention of Crime went
totheTombs court and got twelve blank affi-
davits and twelve blank warrants. Gard
ner told Justice Mcmahon that he would
return before O'Clock 10 have the Justice
sign some warrants.
They will be drawn against John Doe, "
said Gardner.
"Well. then, John Doe will have to be
described and his place of business or his
residence located in the warrant Other
wise will not sign it," said Justice Nc
Mahon.
Gardner did not come back, but appear ed
before Justice Kilbreth at Essex Market
court st 3 O'Clock accompanied by the
Rev. DR.. Parkhurs,. At least four war
rants were got in Essex Market, but not
before John Doe, against whom they were
drawn, was fully described and located.
at is well 10 understand right here -
said Justice kilbreth, that agree with
the other justices in their opposition to
promiscuous and careless warrant issuing.
refuse to give you the warrants unless
John Doe is clearly described"
Justice Mcmahon is q Democrat and
Justice kilbreth is a Republican, but they
agree in refusing 20 issue warrants that do
not clearly describe John Doe.

"IF I SHOULD DIE TONIGHT"


If should die tonight
MY friends would look upon my quiet race
Before they laid ii in its resting place,
And deem that death had left II almost iair,
And laying snow-white flowers against my hair
Would smooth IL down, with fearful tenderness
And fold my hands with lingering caress-
Poor hands, SO empty and SO cold tonight
III should die tonight,
My friends would call to mind with loving
thought
Some kindly deed, the icy hands had wrought
Some gentle word, the frozen lips had SAID,
brands, on which the willing feet mad speus
The memory of my selhshness ana prloe,
My hasty words, would all be laid aside,
And 80 should be loved, and mourned, tonight
II should die tonight,
Even hearts estranged would turn once more 70
me.
Recalling other days remorsefully-
The eyes, which chide me, with averted glance
Would look upon me OF yore perchance
And soften in the old familiar way;
For who would war with dumb, unconscious
clay?
So might rest forgiven of all, tonight
o friendsi / pray tonight,
Keep not your kisses for my dead, cold brow;
The way is lonely, let me feel them now.
Think gently of me, am travel worn,
My faltering feet are pierced with many thorn
Forgive, hearts estranged, forgive plead:
When dreamless rest is mine, shall not need
The tenderness for which long, tonight

To THE LADIES' :
We will open our new stores,
1875 Front street, and wish
to see you at 3 o'clock this
afternoon. We have many
things in the stock of goods
which will please you.
Your good taste and judy
ment will influence those who
rely on you for the many arti-
cles of wearing apparel which
they select at this time of the
year.
Colors are very deceiving
when purchasing neckwear. 1t
is not every one who buys that
realizes what effect the different
shades of color have upon ones
makeup. For the good taste
displayed by. our well-dressed
gentlemen much is due to the
excellent taste shown by the
ladies, who on all occasions
dictate whall shall be worn as
far as color is concerned.
This afternoon we intend to
show you the excellent array
of goods which we are carry
ing and to make your visit to
our store pleasant and men,
orable one.
We know and realize that
clothing store openings are not
favored with the presence of
ladies to any great extent, but
we wish to make it so pleasant
for you that you will be more
than satisfied with the treat
ment accorded you.
We cordially and earnestly
request your presence at our
store this afternoon at ; o'clock.
: We have decorated our store
in an artistic manner and await
your appreciation this after
noon.
Thanking the many who
have shown their interest in the
opening of our store and cor
daily asking your presence this
afternoon, we remain
Yours Truly.

The man who introduced the first canceling
machine in the New York general postoffice is
employed there now, but he has lived to see his
machine surpassed. His invention would can
eel 1900 stamps in an hour, or less than the
average number for a skilled man working by
hand. Three or four other machines, each q
little faster than its predecessor, were intro
duced in turn and discarded. One was invented
that far exceeded the speed of the swiftest hand
worker, and 1t was used until the discovery was
made that it sometimes cut through envelopes
and damaged their contents. Then the present
machine which cancels 5000 stamps an hour,
was introduced. The five machines in use at
the general postofice are run by electricity.

The New York Sun says: An employer whose
operations are on the northern edge of the city
says that English-speaking men seldom apply
to him for work, and he believes that he has
never received an application for work from a
native American. Italians come to him in
droves, and they are good natured and philoso-
phical when employment is denied them. A
dozen or moro came to him one day with an
interpreter. "Tell these men," he said to the
interpreter, ''that canuot employ any of them"
The interpreter translated the announcement,
and none of the men showed any disappoint-
ment. One laughed and said something which
the interpreter translated. "He says" the in
terpreter said "thats all right; he likes to stand
round and see your men work, and maybe by
and by you have job"

The New York Sun says: "Of the great me-
chauical operations OF the times few are more
interesting than the saving of wrecked and
sunken vessels. With the increase of the power
of mechanical appliances in handling great
bodies and more thorough knowledge OF the
possible application of natural forces, the I'M
dertaking of remarkable efforts has been sue
cessful in many instances. Although the rails
ing Of the steamship Oregon of Fire island was
an impossibility, tons on tons Of her cargo were
saved and sold. The raising of the steamship
Atlas, that was struck by ferryboat in the
North river, was a difficult task, but after many
breakdowns of chains and machinery the vessel
was foated. The dragging of the big iron ship
Windermere from Deal beach ten days after she
went ashore is the latest instance OF the capa-
bility of men and machinery. While the posi-
bility of applying some OF natures powers to
overcome some of her obstacles may be limited.
ingenuity is ready nowadays to tackle jobs that
would have been impossible few years ago."
