The New York Legislature has pass

law. The fact casts additional disgrace
upon New Jersey, whose lawmakers
sought to legalize this infamous business.
No one thing has done so much 10 adj

umphant trip OF old John Bull. II adver-

railroading 10 the last half century.
The vlcissitudes Of life are painfully
illustrated In the case OF Alfred Lister, son
Of the late President Lister OF the Lister
Chemical Works, Newark, who has ap,
piled fer admission to the Almshouse.
Father and son both possessed large
wealth, but the latter spent his money
reckiessly, and at the age OF So he finds
himself pauper.
This is the true and manly fashion 10
which the Jersey City Nei1s, Democra-
tic paper, summed up the results Of the
election there recently - The result on
Tuesday places two men on lefty psdes-
tails Of public approval. They are George

r. Wanser, an honest Republican, cap
able and conscientious Mayor.
A Law has been passed in North Da-
kota to establish ''courts OF concilatisn, y
whose duty 1t will be to prevent litigation.
Aggrieved parties may appear before them,
zach side stating It's case, and the court 10

discreditable, the last Legislature was the
most expensive one that has ever cenven-

amount Of Its cost 10 the treasury has not
yet been footed up, but 1t Is estimated
that the figures will reach $l22, 900. Pre-
vious 10 1t the most expensive one we
have had was that OF two years ago,
which csst $103, 683, and was roundly de-
nounced for its extravagance. Ia 1888,
she last year the Republicans had q ma
jority in both Houses, the expense OF the
Legislative session was but $S4, 800.

Colonel Gustav Stcup, Of the First Regi-
ment, Uniformed Rank, knights Of Pyth-
les. Jersey City, ordered the regiment TO

When the regiment reached 81. Patrick's
Roman Catholic Church, Rev. Father
Hennessey sent word that, while the
Knights were welcome as private citi.
zens, they could not be admitted into

planned that the Papal Delegate had not yet
decided the question as to admittance OF
uniformed societies net connected with

still undecided tho present rule would
have 10 remain In force. The Knights re.
manned outside the church while mass
