Undoubtedly there is good ground for making
a strong contest in the courts against the Demo-
cratic gerrymander of the Assembly districts in
New-Jerey An action is to be begun in be-
half of the Essex County Republican Commit
tee, on the advice of lawyers who have given
the question studicuS attention. The making
ND OF the Essex districts in the Democratic in
terest was scandalously unjust the rights of
the majority OF the voters being considered as
of no account whatever; and other counties are
little. if any, better off. The Republicans
should push their cause, which is the cause OF
light and fairness, t. the utmost of their ability

After yesterdays experience Sunday opening
at the Worlds Fair cannot be pronounced
success. The attendance was not large, com
pared with the previous Sunday; mainly no
doubt because of a heavy thunder shower,
which the Sabbatarians will be likely t. regard
As an evidence of celestial wrath Besides the
Government building, many Of the State build
ings were closed no machinery was run, and
moreover, numerous exhibits were covered be-
cause those in charge refuse to work seven days
in the week. The result of the second open
Sunday must be a decided disappointment to
the managers who are eager for big crowds
and voluminous gate receipts.

ment it is before Baby Ruth, the only
child of the president elect, that the female
newspaper writers bow down and worship.
A young woman named Miss G. A. Davis
recently went to Lakewood, n. j., where
Mrs. Cleveland and her child are at present
located, and made u sketch of the little one.
Then she very cleverly combined this with
photograph of mamma and the result
is "A picture of the toddler in the sheltering
maternal arms.

i've characteristics at present are large dark
eyes, long lashes, regular features and a
fair complexion. She takes her daily air
ings at Lakewood between 10 and II in the
morning and is most affable in her manner
toward all who approach her-and every
one does-as she is rolled along in her white
cloak and cap and mittens Miss Davis re-
marks that she was fortunate in crossing
the path of the little carriage just before
baby, with biscuit clutched in one mitten,
was preparing to take a nap, and thus was
favored with sight of the dark eyes and ii
faint smile, which might be interpreted as
expressing the last degree of boredom at

lOOpyTlBnts 1910, ny y. d. beWlb
Our village of Glendale had a popula-
ton of about 600, and for many years it
was the boast of the people that they
went to bed at night without locking a
door or window. Sometimes when two
old pioneers got together and exchanged
"reminiscences they would recall the ar
rest of man for drunkenness or relate
the particulars of theft, but those
things were all legendary. Nothing
whatever in the criminal line had hap
pened for years and years. The tavern
was strictly Temperance" no saloons
were allowed in the place, and the JUS
tice of the peace and constable he'd
nothing to do outside of a lawsuit at
long intervals.
An epoch in the history of our town
was the arrival of a man with a wash
ing machine. The excitement was gener-
al, but more subdued. Our people had
heard and read of washing machines,
but none had ever seen one. The man
gave his name as John White, and when
he gave out that he had secured the best
room at the tavern and might remain
four weeks at four dollars per week it
was whispered that he must be both rich
and reckless. He was fat, smooth faced
man, with hearty way about him. He
was jolly, sympathetic, temperate and
religious Our people couldn't have
reasonably demanded those qualities in
a stranger whose sole object was to light
en- the burdens of American women on
washdays, but his having them was duly
appreciated by one and all.

Old English Game Laws.

A little book printed in London in
1850 gives some account Of the early
English game laws. In 1889, during the
reign of Richard II, law was enacted
which forbade all persons to hunt or de.
stroy gam no did not, if a layman,
possess an . me of forty shillings a
year. and i. clergyman, one of ten
pounds sterling. Trespassers after game
became so troublesome that law was
enacted in 1895. under Henry VII. i'm
posing penalty of ten pounds upon any
person who destroyed game on the lands
of another without special license
from the owner or possessor. In the
reign of Henry VIII the law was made
much more stringent, for then the buy
ing and selling of pheasants or par
tridges, except to the royal family, was
punished by what. in those times, was
considered ii heavy penalty-6 shillings

many hours he lay like one dead. but
his thin, creased face was very peece-
full and there was no pain. Children

bitterly, while others - those who
