BOTHERED sY kANGAROOS:

Australian Squatters Gradually Externi-
mating the Hungry, Long-Leaplng Pest.
The kangaroo plague has always
been a great nuisance to the Australian
squatters, for on an average these
animals consume as much grass as
sheep. 1t is stated by Science Gossip
that on a sheep run of. sixty thousand
to eighty thousand acres ten thousand
kangaroos were killed annually for six
consecutive years and yet their num-
Der remained very formidable in the
locality. In the colony of South Aus
tralia hundreds of thousandsof kanga-
roos are slaughtered annually for their
skins and the bonus offered by the au-
ehorities The number of these marsu-
pals in New South Wales in 1889 was es-
timated to be over four million, and yet
about five hundred thousand kangaroos
and six hundred and fifty thousand
wallables were destroyed in the col
ony in that year. A bonus of sixteen
cents. for each kangaroo killed is of
fered in Australia, hence the colonists
are gradually eXterminating these ma
tive animals. Over half million skins
are annually shipped to England and
a large number to North America
to be converted into leather. The
macropide include several kinds of
kangaroos and wallables. The progress
of settlement in Australia has driven
these animals from the more denscly
populated parts of the Australian con-
tinent, but in the country and unset
tied districts they are still numerous
enough to cause very considerable
damage to the natural grasses So
serious has been the injury thus
wrought that the colonial governments
and runholders pay small sum per
head for the destruction of the kan
garooS.

WIDOW RYAN OBJECTED.
Her BrOther-in-LaW's Actions We're
Most Repulsive to Her.

In the Orphans Court yesterday a
spicy story was developed through the
application of Counsellor Minturn on
behalf of Mary Ryan to have Lawrence
Ryan removed as administrator of the
estate Of the late Richard Ryan, of Ho-
bokeu. Ryan died last July at his home
on CLIFTON and Fifth streets, leaving
an estate a part OF which was a liquor
store.
Immediately after the death of Ryan,
his brother Lawrence took possession OF
the liquor store, and later was APP
pointed administrator Of the es-
tate. Lawrence was constant iu his
attention to the saloon business. but was
eveu more constant in his devotions to
the widow of his brother. She says that
he, Oh a number of occasio MS, made i'm
proper overtures to her whtch she re-
pulsed.
He became so persistent In showing his
affections for the widow that she re-
fused to see him except when she was
forced to. On one occasion, according
to the widow, Lawrence seized her ana
~endeavored to force her into her sleeping
room. He only desisted when the widow
screamed and threatened Ryan. with ar
rest. Ryan left her In q passion. and the
widow claims that after that the
receipts from the liquor store became
less. aud that now it was in debt. 1t was
insisted by Counsellor Miuturu that, for
these reasons Lawrence Ryan should be
removed from the position of admisistra-
tor. Ryanis only defense was that the
widow desired his removal to make room
for another a Judge H%uidspeth

by Mr.. Hennessey and emanating
from the Third Assembly district. 1t
is quite true that the engineers of
this movement talk very vigorously
against Davis, but that is one of his
old gags.
Now, to our mind, Sheriff Stanton's
clean, honest, energetic, business
ike administration of his office for a
year is just the platform the Democ-
racy wants to run on, just the inspira.
ton that the takers and the workers
need to make a hustling campaign.
Mr.. Stanton will run as we'll as any,
in Jersey City, and nobody else
car get half the majority he will in
Hoboken and North Hudson. In
Bayonne and the Passaic towns, he
will do as well as anybody. The
Democratic majority, this year, must
mainly be Eobtained north of the Ho-
boken line, and nobody can match
Mr.. Stanton there. He is the man to
make the race. Let us have no tenn

NO MORE STRUCK JURLES.
The Expense In the Boulevard Con-
domination Cases Too High,
Says Judge Lippincott.

Judge Lippincott today handed counsel
n list of struck jurors in five of the
Boulevard cases to be tried. Hs said in
this connection, that fifteen struck jurtes
had already been drawn q that the
Court would not be able to try any more
OF these cases this term. The Judge said,
in this connection, that he Was not sure
that he would present any more
struck juries to be drawn in these cases,
for the expense for summoning the
juries would reach from $40, 900 to SIS, 900,
q burden that should not be placed on
the county. 1t costs for the mere sum-
moning of q struck jury. $50 in each
case. The Judge SAID the statute com.
PEELED him to strike juries in these
cases, but he hoped that during the
next term of court, The counsel
would be satisfied with striking juries
from the regular petty jury PANEL and
thereby save the county a great suH OF
money. He thought 1t was the duty Of
counsel to make the expense to the
county in these cases as light as possible.
The Judge said the total number of con-
demuatiou cases that will be tried Is 140,
and it will take q long time to try them
all.
Judge McGrath, OH behalf Of the
County. and the numerous counsel for
the appealing parties, did not signify
whether thew would be satisfied with the
proposition Of the Court, but 1t Is prob,
able that they will consent to the striklne
Of juries from the pstty jury panel. II
this should be done 1t will be the duty Of

"a beautiful woman in a beautiful gown"
is the way they describe her.
"The Rev. DR.. Morgan Dix finds fault
with women" says the New York Sun,
"for thinking more about their personal
charms than about their souls, but Miss
Mabel Jenness feels it her duty to instruct
them as to the best use of those charms in
the attainment Of a correct and elegant
carriage and by the proper artistic care
of the body In her view the sou expresses
itself through the body, and action goes on
between the two, with the result that physi-
cal grace has a moral value"
AS Mrs. Jenness-Miller is known the
world over for her ideas on dress reform,
SO her sister. Miss Mabel Jenness, whose
likeness is given above, is celebrated for
her crusade for physical culture among the
gentler sex.
Her system of physical training is at
tracing a great deal of attention. "She is
herself a society girl, and yet finds time"
says the Sun, " to practice her system, and
in the midst, of her m~ultitudinous duties
is never tired, never sick, doesn't know
where her nerves are, and is a stranger to
headaches The reason is apparent in a
letter written July 10, 1898, from Washing

slider this an excellent preparation.

work hard.
al recommended Paine's celery COM

terday, and on leaving here she went and
bought a bottle. I shall do all I can for it,
for l believe in It,"
So the society woman, whose health and
grace are famous the country over, and who
is in a position to command the best medi-
cal advice, finds in Paine's celery compound
the same relief from the effects ofover work
and Illness that the poorer, harder working
woman finds.
And this great remedy that makes people
well is equally within the reach of all. tits
for sale in every respectable drug store in
the country, and is IN greater demand
today than any remedy in the world.
1t is the one true specific for diseases aris-
ing from a ~debilitated, nervous system,
probably the most remarkable remedy that
the scientific research OF this country has
produced. Prof. Edward z. Phelps, N. D.,
Ii. D., OF Dartmouth college, first prescribed
what is 0 known the world over as
Paine's celery compound, a positive cure

neuralgia, rheumatism and kidney trou-
bles. For the, latter Paiue's celery CON-
pound has succeeded again and again where
everything else has failed.
Washington correspondents have recent
ly given it great deal of attention since
the cures effected in that city.
The medical journals of the country have
given more space in the last few years to
the many remarkable cases where the use
of Patne's celery compound has made peo-
pie we'll than to any other one subject. Try
it and be better.
