OauSRG Mailing u recommendation OF
Character to Fence.
Jersey City, not to be outdone by
Chicago or New York, has also con-
tributed to the list of dangerous cranks
which have been raising high jinks III
those cities.
Jersey City's crank, however, has not
yet arted IN to kill anybody, but his
record is bad enough to justify his being
placed alongside OF Bradley and Pender-
gast. The crank is George Fits Randolph
Of Freehold. NJ. A few weeks ago he
was released from the County Jail at
Freehold, where he served a sentence
lasting several months. While in jail he
set ire to his bed, and came very near
putting the Jail in ruins. The hre was
discovered by Jailor Houston before it
then tied hand and foot to his cot. During
the night he chewed the cords which
bound him and released himself He
then tore his bedclothes to shreds and
tried to commit suicide by hanging
Yesterday afternoon Patrolman Fred
Siller, of the First Precinct, found him on
Montgomery street trying to nail paper
to board fence. The paper was recon-
mendation from Alderman Kerr, of Har-
rison, and testified to Randolph's good
character. Randolph was arr 'igned be-
fore Justice of the Peace Martinez, and
was committed to the County Jail to
await examination by the County
Physician.
JaiIor Houston, of Freehold, is no
doubt glad that Randolph is sojourning
in this county.

The wording of the resolution charac-
terized this proposed league as machine,
the author explaining that the word was
used merely as a synonym of united Or

however, by many delegates. who insisted
that the word machine implied a con-

prevailed and the words, "u nited. organ

port was then adopted.

The Anheuser- Busch Beer Receives the
Highest Award bv the Column


No jury, perhaps. had a more difficult
task than the one which had to sit in
Judgment over the hundreds Of excellent
brands of beer manufactured in this and
foreign countries, hence it is so much
more gratifying to the Anheuser- Busch
Brewing Association of st. Louis that
the jury has awarded to the beer of this
firm the highest diploma, and that no
other concern has gained for the various
essential qualities of good beer so many
points in its favor as the Anheuser-Busch
Brewing Association of ST. Louis This
verdict of the Columbian jury, consisting
of connoisseurs and chemists of the high
est rank, has sustained the popular opin-
ion that The Anheuser-Busch Beer is the
best in this country. Mr. Adolphus
Busch, the president of the concern. can
justly feel proud over this result, gained
by the best business methods, which ex-
clude corn and other adulterants and use
the finest material only that can be pro-
cured in this country and Europe.

ZANZIBAR SLAVE TRADE.
French Dealers Caught BY the British
Acquitted.
By cable to the United Press.


ZANZIBAR. Nov. l. 1s93-The captain
and crew of the French slave dhow that
was captured By the British cruiser
Philomel in April last have been acquit-
ted by the court at Reunion. to which the
prisoners were sent for trial by the
French CONSUL here. The acquittal of
prisoners has caused genuine sensation
here. as it practically gives immunity to
slavers who carry on their business under
the French flag.
Official estimates made at various
periods during che past fifty years show
that not more than five per cent. of slaves
shipped from African ports have been
captured by her Majsssy's cruisers. AS
200 slaves were captured in Zanzibar
waters during one mouth. II.
Is safe to estimate that that. NUM-.
Der represents 1900 slaves shipped,
and many of these were, no doubt
destined for the Island of Psmba, which
absorbs many Thousand slaves 10 the

smuggled into Zanzibar to be let out in
