The Latest Fad.

The latest fashionable freak among
women who are blessed with pretty
hands is to wear an immense ring, like
a Roman Catholic bishops, ON the first
finger of the right hand. 1t used to be
considered the height Of vulgarity to
place a ring ON the index finger, but
now this decoration is the dernier cri.
The ring must be q superb one and must
not partake Of the slender and graceful
daintiness of the "marquise'' circle. 1t
must be solid, big and respectfully ec-
clesiastic In its appearance. The femi-
nine mind, always DESTROYS of presenting
contrasted effects TO poor humanity.

MUSICAL

This has been an off week in musical mat
tiers. Cinderella has taken up the atten-
tion of q good part of the town, and with
the exception of the Dean lecture there has
been little of Importance.
Well, the Dean lectures are over, and low
ever successful or otherwise they may AVE
been financially they have undoubtedly exer-
cised an educational influence.
1t is seldom that an -accompanist is of such
remarkable merit that an audience ranks
him or her as the success of the evening, but
it is safe to say that more people at the last
Dean lecture spoke in terms of praise of the
accomplishments of Mrs. Carl E.. Martin
thar of any other musical feature Of the
evening.
in answer to an inquiry, | am able to state
on the authority of the manager, that the
projected concerts by the Euterpe Club of
Brooklyn will not be given in this city this
season.
The Bradford Trio plays every Sunday
night at the Bergen Baptist Church. They
are clever children, and attract large
audiences.
Grant Odell, who sang here last week at
the j.. C. A. c., was one of the soloist at the
Manuscript Concert in New York on Tues
day. 1t seems as if every person in the
very small audience here has had something
to say of his wonderful voice since then. OF
course he received a double recall in New
York. At that concert, BY the way, there
was the usual large attendance Of Jersey
City people.

JUSTICE BUSCH HELD UP,
Out in the Country and He Was
Much Frightened-.NOw He's Mad.

Justice William F. Rusch of Hoboken had
an exciting time of it last night way out on
the Paterson Plank Road. The Justice had
wanted all the week to go sleigh riding, and
last night he did. Things went along quietly
all the evening. The Justice was not alone,
but who was with him he will not say. Way
out in the country the couple went and
along about ten o'clock the horses
nose was turned around towards home.
The Steed was more desiriOuS OF reaching
Hoboken that the occupants of the sleigh,
but the Justice had enough else to attend to
than to be bothered about holding the reins.
But the course of true sleigh riding never
did run smoothly any how. Just as the
party had reached the Secaucus bridge the
horses ears shot bach and he gave a jump.
The Justice and the other one looked up.
sHold up your handsw yelled somebody
standing three feet from where the Justice
sat. That was a hard job, but the Justice,
because he was frightened, took them away
from his company's sealskin sacque and
planted them high in the cold air. Then his
hair assumed an upward course as his eyes
rested upon a big revolver levelled square at
his heart, which was humping at the rate
of five knots an hour. Without much delay
the h~ighwayman extracted the Justices
watch inc a roll of bills, and then sneaked.
Now, the Justice waS real anxious to get
home, and the horse couldn't go fast enough.
When safely landed within his office on
Park avenue, doors locked and gas turned
up. he found his watch and money demurely
lying on the table.
eWell, Judge, how did you like itg' asked
"Billie' Taylor, the Justices clerk.
"Like what, darn itTn demanded the
magistrate, whose heart was palpitating
faster than ever in wonderment.
"Why the robbing business. He held you
up in great shape, didn't heg' added Billie.
Tt-Y-y-you held me up. Well I'm blasted
and the Justice went upstairs and tucked
himself in bed, without saying much of his
prayers. The Justice this morning didn't
talk much about the event.

STEELE MAOKAYEs CONDITION.

CHICAGO, Feb. II. 1s94.-Mr. Steele Mac
hayes condition remains unchanged. The
announcement that his illness was critical
caused a large number of his friends to call
yesterday. Among the callers was George
r. Peck of the Santa Fe Railroad, who tend
cred TO Mrs. Mackaye a special car to convey
Mr.. Mackaye to California, where his physi-
clans believe that he can recuperate. His
physicians will not express an opinion as to
his chances for recovery. The chief trouble
in his illness is the inability of his stomach to
retain nourishment, and his condition is de-
scribed as starving to death.

and he good looking. The young man Sc
cured the consent of the girl to marry him,
and amonth ago came to Hoboken where
she promised to meet him when he should
send for her.
In a week he wrote to his love, saying he
had struck a gold mine in tho guise of lu-
crative business, and she had better come
and share his fortune. She came, and for
two weeks they lived together as man and
wife. He postponed the marriage on one pre-
text and another until last week he declared
he must leave her. The girl was compelled
to hunt up a boarding place and located at
No. 70 Washington street, Hoboken.
The man will not keep his promise now,
and the girl will sue him for breach of
promise.

THEY KISSED AT him.

Teachers Geese.

Principal Herman, of School No. 5. Hobo
ken, during an argument over a proposed
charity entertainment Of the teachers of the
Hoboken schools at the teachers meeting
last Wednesday evening, designated certain
teachers as geese. Mr.. Herman had made a
rafting speech, denouncing the project, and
after he had given uttefance to ONE pointed
remarks, to which some of the teachers man
ifested their displeasure by kissing, he tulnsd
to the presiding member, saying:

course against the entertainment, but after a
while thought better of arguing in fear of
more Kisses. After all it was decided not to
push the scheme ahead. Mr.. Herman says
he styled the teachers who INDUCED in hiss
ing, geese" because he was grossly insulted.
He admitted that he was governed more by
impulse. and said the teachers did not un-
derstand parliamentary rules. Otherwise
they would not lave Kissed at him.

The speaker was a prominent physician.
Continuing, he SAID
81 mean getting over the after-efects of
the grip. Anyone who has seen as much of
it as / have can easily understand it. The
grip lasts for a long time, and seems to take
a special hold upon the system. 1t frequent
ly runs into pneumonia, sometimes leaves the
hearing partially impaired, the throat with
an irritating soreness, and the stomach with
time to recover the strength, the energy or
the ambition after one has had a run of
grip, and we frequently find neuralgia,
rheumatism and even worse things follow
ing it.
m do under these circumstances? The
answer seems hard, but is really easy. Sim

That is what every good physician in the
land advocates in order to drive grip out of
the system. 1t should be remembered, how
ever, that the stimulant must be pure, and
that nothing for this purpose is equal to
good whiskey. 1t is unfortunate, however,
that there is so little pure medicinal whiskey
to be found, and, in fact, it can be truly said
that there is but one truly medicinal whiskey
upon the market, and that is Duffy's Pure
Malt. 1t is not like ordinary whiskey, how
ever much druggists n grocers may say SO.
It has, In fact, properties possessed by no
other, and lis beyond question a stimulant
which can safely and effeetually be taken to
prevent the grip or drive away its most dis
astrous after effects.

ENGLAND VIOLATES A TREATY.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Feb. II, 1S94.-A special
to the Globe Democrat from Yucatan states
that the people of Southern Mexico are
greatly excited over the action of the Eng
fish c~olonists of Belico, across the border,
selling arms and ammunition to the Indians
living along the Yucatan-Belice border. The
terms of the treaty lately signed between
England and Mexico forbids either side sell
ling arms TO these troublesome Indians and
the claim is made that the English are now
openly violating the terms of the treaty in
this respect. It is probable the Mexican
State Department viii take speedy steps for
asking an explanation of England.
