the fact that the latest sales OF its
stock were made at about three hun
dred per cent. of its par value.
1t is not in the least probable that
under the new management the took
will at first pay as high a profit as 1t
has for some years past. But we can
not see that the minority stockhold-
ers have any right. to complain. They
could not keep on forever getting h
same huge returns. Either the com
pany should sooner or latter have
launched into new expenses in order
to keep abreast with the rapid transit
ideas Of the day, or else, sooner or
later, competitors would have come
in and cut the profits off in the o
summary way. This was inevitable.
The rumblings OF the impending
storm were lately heard in Green
vile. To be sure. they came to moth
ing, as we foretold; but the time
would come when real opposition
would arise.
The new phase that affairs will take
on under the direction of the new syn
dictate will avert this competition by
making the present roads supply all
the needs of the city. Competition
will henceforth be a very remote
danger, and if the dividends grow
somewhat smaller, their continuance
for many wears will be more certain.
Besides, there will be the strong pros
pect that, in a couple of years, they
will get back to the old figure. Ifthe
energy of the new company looms
the Hill district, as we confidently ex-
pect it will, the traffic will increase SO
much in a few years, that the lines
will pay better than ever before.

Disease, like a train, acquires momentum.
One can't attend too early to the signs of
nervous debility. Habits are creases in the
body often made as thoughtlessly as the
folds in an old newspaper. Every time you

dyspepsia or neuralgia you deepen a very
bad habit.

knows, it is one of the most painful diseas-
es, and until the recent discovery of DIR.

cred almost always incurable.

for which tried several remedies with no
success. A clergyman advised me to try
Paine's celery compound. 1 did so, and
was surprised at the effect. After taking
one bottle 1 was entirely relieved. 1 have
taken two bottles and am cured"
AS a we'll known and conservative physi-
clan in Jersey City has said, "Paine's celery
compound is generally considered a certain
specific for the cure of rheumatism. and SO
much better results are obtained from it
than from all the usual remedies that it has
become a regular prescription anon the
most eminent practitioners. prescribe it
regularly and believe that every rheumatic
victim should use it,"

Robert Gayfor as sport McAIister.
The attraction at the Academy Of Music
next Monday night will be that genius OF
low comedy, Robert Gaylor. in Il new
f~arcical production entitled, sport Nc
AIlister. one of the 4o0." The absurdities
and comicalities of Irish rule in New
York politics are presented ID a dellgnt-,
fully natural way, and Gaylor's portrayal
OF the boss politician is in no wise over
drawn. and the methods of the office
seeker of Gotham are shown in a manner
that has but the very least SAVIOR OF ex-
apoeration about it. The role of "Sport
McAllister'' is a good vehicle Tor the dis-
play of Gaylor's many pecullarl-
Ties. 1t affords him ample
latitude for the introduction OF
the speciaIties which made him FAMOUS
wears ago. but all are introduced III sucn
a legitimate manner that they seem 10
have been deftly woven in by the skilful
| auther. Nj. Gaylor is supported by an
excellent company of speciality artists
whose work throughout the piece gives
| evidence of far greater talent anc train
| ING than is canerallr shown by people OF
their kind. MIR. David COnrov, rs Deh-
| mia McGinty. a rival of "Sport's," shows
| himself TO be n good Irish comedian,
| while Charles Young, as Hard Cheek,
| the insurance agent, is another Evans
| ana does an exceedingly clever piece OF
| character acting throughout aud at times
| divides the honors with Gaylor himself.

The Board of Works Bills.

Jersey City cannot but be highly
amused by the squabble among the
Newark Assemblymen over the
sshonorn of introducing the bill to do
away with the system of appointing
the members of the Street and Water
Board. 1t is a very comical situation
There is a serious side to 1t as well,
and we are inclined to think it is a
very good side. The quarrel will
probably prevent the passage OF any
bill at all to accomplish this purpose.
The system of appointing public
works commissioners and all other
executive functionaries is much bet
ter than that of .electing them. The
defects of the present system are al
together different. They are four in
NUMBER
There are too many commission
ers. They should be three instead
of five.
2-Thier term is too long, 1t
should be three years, not five, n to
go out each year.
Bone of them should always be OF
the minority party.
4-They should have no legislative
powers. These should be vested in
the Common Councils or Boards OF
Aldermen of the City, elected by the
people. -
A bill to make these changes would
doubtless meet with the approval OF
Governor Werts and everyone else.
Just why Newark wants to make her
commissioners elective, we do not see.
The indications are that Newark will
go Republican for the next year Oh
two, at least.
