an Illegal Act.
A decided sensation was created in the
Fourth ward Of Hoboken this morning
when it became kno wn that Archibald

of the city and a leading Republican poll
ticlan, had psen arrested for dealing in
policy.
Wilson has resided at No 351 First
street for many years. and owns consider
able property. He is a boss carpenter.
and always has plenty of WORK. James
Teatum. a cobbler on Park avenue, has
been arrested several times BY the police
for dealin g In policy. aud each time Will
son has gone on his bond.
Policeman Owen Quinn has been do
ing duty in citizens attire the past few
weeks and has kept his eye an sTeatum's j
shop. He noticed Wilson went there FREE
qnently. This morning, about nine
O'Clock, Wilson came up First street in
his shirt sleeves. As he neared
Teatum's place, he glanced about
in q Suspicious maHner. Quinn
was nearby and noticed Wilson's
actions. He kept close to him uuobserved.
Wilson hurriedly entered Teatum's shop
wheL he Thought no one was about and
was about to place q handful of policy
slips in & drawer when Quinn grabbed
him, securing the slips. He was arrested
and arraigned before Recorder McDon-
ough, who admitted him to bail to appear
before Justice NcDonough.

AARoN's ZONE OF THE FINEST

A Good Company and Entertaining Play
at the Opera House.
1t was very comfortable and jolly in the
New Opera House last night, notwith-
standing the warmth most everywhere
else. Ed Aaron and a very clever COM
pany appeared before an audience that
three-fourths filed the house in the anus
ing and popular play, One OF the FINEST
Mr., Aaron is the equal of the famou
Gus Williams as John Mishler. the Dutch
policeman, aud he is in the front rank as
a balladist. He has a long list OF topical
songs which were distributed generously
through the five acts, aud he never failed
TO score an encore. The plot OF the play
Is interesting. but the audience took
greatest pleasure in the abundance of
merry music and dancing. George w.
Kerr as Hugh Hickman, the adven-
turer, sing 1.-The Old Sexton"
and other bass solos. He has a
bass voice of remarkable depth and sweet
ness. Sam Brooks, as Quincy Veal, the
bootblack, was full of song and dance and
the audience appeared disposed to encore
him all night. J. r. Oakley, in the role
OF a Bowery masher, and Mamie Law
renee, did serre good groresque
man sang Il pretty ballad n
acted first ate as Ruth Hickman.
the heroine. There are a dozen others in
the cast, and all do their parts well. Tde
Quartette is very good.
II you care anything about fun. music
and dancing with q bit OF tragedy and
pathos now ana then. you Will enjoy
Aaron's lone of the Finest" 1t will be

MRS. POTTER In HOBoKEN.
The Famous Society Actress ppears In
Ross Theatre.

The Famous Society Actress Appears In
Ross Theatre.
The theatre goers Of Hudson County
will have an opportunity this evening of
Judging Mrs. James Brown Potter. the
social favorite as an actress. and OF also
judging the merits of her play. "The Mar
riags Spectre" This play is n be
Dumas, the younger. and is out of his or
binary style. The lines border on the H.
delicate but not to that extent that
one would anticipate coming from
Dumas. The play teaches a per-
son, a lesson, too, that probably the
ordinary man does not care to learn.
as f1guratively speaking, it "hits him
right between the eyes" It is the story
of a married woman who dearly loves
her husband, but has IN idea that a mar
ried woman has the same right and priv
ilege 10 be %unfaithtul as a husband has.
She resolves at least to teach her husband
q lesson without entirely overstepping
the bounds. and she does It in a clever
and ingenious manner. The play Is called
a social study. There is considerable
comedy in it, and altogether 1t is q most
ENJOYABLE productions. Theatre goers will
also be pleased to see Kyrle Bellew, who
SO ably supports Mrs. Potter. The cast
all through is a strong one. every mem
Der being an artist.
This evening and the matinee tomorrow
he attraction will be the Marriage
Spectre" while tomorrow evening lola 8
''Therese'' will be performed.

SMITH SEES GROVER.
Pfeiffer Has Been Talked Around
Bank Examiners.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. May %. 1S93-Sen-
ator Smith had a pleasant conference
Yesterday morning with the President at
the White House.
ST had not seen the President since his
return from Chicago" said Senator
Smith to q correspondent. and SO l ran
in to pay my respects to him. We did
not talk about New Jersey appoint
ments or anything relating to the Stale.
OF course we have a great many appll-
cants for places, but there are acme Q De
especially pressed at This time and par
ricuIarly with the senior Senator oil of
the city in the West. it is impossible to do
anything"
''How about the marshalshipf"
Colonel Pfeiffer has not resigned. IS
far as | can learn he never did resign. l
believe he will stay where he is. | do
not think he is over anxious to remain,
but should he give up the position there
would be "a host of candidates to choose
between, anu that wouid necessiJate dis
appointing somebody"
Are there any other large offices to be
flledf"
lit will not be long before we will have
to give some attention to the Internal
Revenue Collectors. I am fascinating
inquiries as TO when the term of the New
ARK Postmaster expires. Ii l remember
rightly, the sGelancrat whom Mr.. CORK
ling succeeded Was removed by President
Harrison before the expiration OF MS
term for offensive partisa ,snip. Whether
this will lead to the curtallment OF the
present Postmaster's term l cannot say.
THE LIFE SAVING SERVICE.
1t Is learned at the Treasury Depars-
ment today that there is some Likelihood
OF a general shake up in the life saving
force in the New Jersey district. AS is
well known, Secretary Carlisle has de-
cided that there shall be no changes In
this service except where it will resul in
a better administration of affairs.
1t is quite possible that the de-
partmenI will deem a change in
the present superintendent OF the
district an advantageous thing. Tue
position is now held by john G. w.
Havens, who is located at PIT. Pleasant,
aud who gets 1880 a rear. There are
rumors that he has used mis- position for
partisan ends aud it would not be ut all
surprising II a new man and d democrat
got his place. Should this be the case,
Gne service would receive O thorough
overha uling, though of course the good
men would be retained.
BANK EXAMINERS.
Up to the present time there have been
no changes i'll the force of bank examin-
ers in New Jersey. 1t is only a matter OF
time, however, before the republicans
who now hold these positions Will be
superseded by democrats. The claims
of applicants are now being considered.
An effort Is also to be made TO have
some of the chiefs of divisions in the
Treasury Department appointed from
New Jersey.

shocking one, granting that the OBJ
server has a clean heart.
We venture to say that one of the
great benefits of our parks and open
places is the opportunity which they
afford to honest sweethearts of the
humber classes. The living room of
a tenement house is not the place tor
a happy courtship, and the hall and
vestibuie are equally unfavorable.
Where are the young people to go2
To the beer swilling picnics and
balls?
At least in our judgment, the
stigma put upon these young people by
their arrest. their confinement in a
police cell, and their punishment with
a legal judgment for alleged improper
conduct was more wrong than ali the
love making conducted in all the
parks of Baltimore in all time.

II the officials OF the Erie Railroad
Company believe that they have struck a
decisive blow to the association for

the association, and stronger efforts Than
over before will be made to compel the
company to elevate its tracks.

Shocking Condition OF the Mains-Not
Cleaned in Years.
The Tax Commissioners of Hoboken
examined the sewers of the lower part of
the city yesterday. and found them In a
most deplorable condition. In some
places the levers had not been cleaned
for six or seven years and were SO clogged
up that they were rendered useless. The
Commissioners were surprised at what
they had discovered, and said that they
did not wonder at the request OF the
Health Board. and If cholera ever did get
into the city. it would have 4 feeder that
would wipe Hoboken of the face OF the
earth.
Year after year money has been appro-
priated for the cleaning OF the sewers, but
has evidently found its way into the
pockets of politicians.
Mayor Pagan cannot do a better thing
than investigate these matters" said one
Of the commissioners. u tnd out where

The Tax Commissioners will uudoubr-
