H0DOKEN PlREMEN


While Away the Hours by Playing
Cards for Drinks.
At the meeting of the Hoboken Fire
Board | st night several facts were de-
yeloped which seriously reflect on the
manner in which the Fire Department is
being run at present. There was a large
lobby at the meeting.
Walter G.. Burke, attached to No. 8
Engine House, was arraigned on a charge
of disobeying orders. The complaint was
made by Jon McGrath, the captain of the
company. He ordered Burke to hand up
some hose on August II and Burke re-
fused. Burke, in his own behalf, testified
that the captain and the men were in the
habit Of playing for drinks in the engine
house, and that there was little or no
discipline in the house. He said that he
was off duty on the day in question. He
also said that the men were obliged to
~patronize the saloon of McGrath's father,
which is across the street from the fire
house, or incur the ill-will of the captain.
Captain McGrath made a general denial
and the Commissioners after a short de-
liberation tined Burke six days pay and
he was reprimanded by the President of
the board

Gross Libel. Says Father Tor wosrt.
A suit for damages against the Epening
Journal for gross libel will probably he
the result of the brutal attack OF the
Journal on the condition of the West Side
Catholic cemetery last Monday.
Rev. Father Ter Woert today said that
he had placed the matter in the hands of
a lawyer and that a suit would be COM
menced. Father Ter Woert is greatly
incensed at the wanton and unjust attack
on the cemetery, and the Catholics all
over the county reflect his indignation.
They are a unit in saying that the Jour
rat has always made it a practice to abuse
Catholics, and that the most recent attack
on the cemetery by that paper was only
in keeping with its past policy.
1t is but a year ago that the Journal
slandered and libelled st. Michael's
O~rphanage Asylum and was sued for
damages.
The journal compromised the suit be-
fore 1t went to trial, but it cost the paper
about 81 600 to do so. Good Catholics
want Father Ter Woert to push his suit,
and leading lawyers have assured him
that he has an excellent case.

Breaking an Infantry Square.

A discussion seems to be going on as
to whether an infantry square can be
broken by 6 charge of men on foot or on
horseback. To the non-military turn of
mind this would seem impossible, pro-
vided that the square is properly
formed. But I read the other day that
the French in Dahomey cast melinite
bombs into an intrenchment of the en-
envy, with the result that the assailants
themselves had to fall back in order
not to be destroyed by the suffocating
fumes.
Is this fact or an effort of the jour
nalistic imagination? If the former,
what is to prevent melinite being fired
into any dense mass of men on the bat
tlefeld, whether in square or in any
other formation, and emitting such
fumes that the square would cease to
exist? Admitting the truth of the
statement, it seems to me likely to rem
der war SO exceedingly dangerous q
pastime that few sane human beings
will be willing to engage in it.-London

Olive Growing in California.

Olive growing, olive picking and the
manufacture OF olive oil have become
highly important industry in California.
This year the industry has remarkable
boom, and the dealers are entirely un-
able to meet all the orders they have re-
ceived. This is especially the case in
the Pomona Valley. Every body en-
gagged in the olive trade-growing, max ,
ing oil, or acting as brokers-is making
unusual profit, and there is q demand
for five times the amount of the crop.
One order that could not be filled came
to Pomona last week from a New York
grocery house for 10000 gallons of pick
led olives. Many orchardists have
made $3.50 an acre from olives this sea-
son, and some have made clean profit
of $3.50 an acre.-NeW York Sun.
