The New Jersey editor of the N. Y.
World is evidently unacquainted with
the Republican candidate for Congress in
this District, or he would net be silly
enough TO say: Congressman Cornish's
reelection is assured il he can get his OPP
ponent, Mahlon Pitney, to place himself
on exhibition and stump the district. "
Mr.. Pitney will certainly 'stump the dis
trict" as extensively at his time and other
engagements will permit, and will be
quite willing, we are sure, to ''place him
self on exhibition" alongside of Johnston
Cornish at any place., on any occasion,
or in any manner that Mr. Cornish or his
friends may desire to take the chances OF

Court,

Court convened on Monday OF last week
for the trial of indictments. The first In.
dictment moved by Prosecutor Chamber
lin was the State against Geo. E. Everilt.
Counsel for the defendant moved q post.
ponement as civil suit involving prac.
tically the same points was pending IL
the Circuit Court. The case was put ov-
er until after the civil suit shall be tried.
The State against Nicola Amarella.
The defendant was charged with keeping
a disorderly house in the town OF Stock
ton. The State produced witnesses show
ing that many persons congregated at the
defendants house on Sundays and other
times and drank much beer, which it was
claimed the defendant sold in his house,
and that there was much noise and fight
ing there. The defence was that the de-
PENDANT kept boarding house and this
accounted for the number of men seen at
his house that be kept beer in the house
for his boarders and friends and treated
them and never took or received any mon
ey for the same that there was never a
fight there but once and that took place
when the defendant was not at home
Verdict guilty. The Court fined the de.
PENDANT $50, which was paid and the de-
PENDANT discharged.
The indictment against James William
son, (colored,) was then moved. The
State showed that 10 May last the defend
ant had some words with Mrs. Berman
and committed an assault by striking her.
The defence was that Mrs. Berman was
angry at the defendant for his conduct in
abusing her little daughter, and that she
attempted to strike the defendant who
caught her arm and pushed her away. The
defendants story was corroborated by his
mother and sister who saw the trouble.
Verdict, guilty. The defendants coun-
sci made strong plea for clemency aud
the Court suspended sentence.
The prosecutor having nothing further
to move, Court adjourned. The panel of
Jurors was discharged until Tuesday,
October 10th, when the Jury Appeals will
be taken up.

The most important contribution yet
made to our knowledge OF the celestial
Bismarck, Ii Hung Chang, appears in the
October ReUieaO of RevieUs 10 the form
of character sketch of the Chinese Pre-
mier, by Mr.. John Russell Young. for
mery our Minister to China, and for many
years a close personal friend of the Vice.
roy. At The beginning of his article Mr..
Young places the words of General Grant,
spoken in 1879 at the conclusion of his
journey around the world: 81 have met
on this journey four great men, Bismarck,
Beaconsfield, Gambetta and Lii Hung
Chang. am not sure, all things consid-
cred, but that Ii is the greatest OF the
four" The picture drawn by Mr.. Young
,of the relations that existed between Gen.
eral Grant and the Chinese statesman has
all the charm OF novelty to American read
ers. Whether or not our great command
err was fully justified in what seems the
almost extravagant estimate that he placed
on the abilities Of the Oriental, 1t must be
confessed that Mr.. Young's interesting
sketch docs much TO reveal the possible
grounds of such judgment. The Vice
roy's attitude toward japan is carefully
canvassed in the course OF the article, and
probably for the first time authenticity
set forth from an American point OF view.
Several portraits Of Ii accompany Mr.
Young's article-one drawing from his
latest photograph, another reproduction
from miniature presented by LII himself
to Mr.. Young. The picture of General
Grant and Lii Hung Chang together is re-
printed from the September Review.

ton. 1t was to the effect that Mr. Det-
willer would resign his Office, he not caring
to occupy an office of public trust unless
legally authorized to do SO.
Considerable color is given the report by
the report that last night Mr.. Detwiller re.
signed his position as one of the Directors OF
the Union League Club.
Mr.. Detwiller's health is impaired and he
is going south. Failing health is given as
the reason for his resignation from the
Union League Club. At the same time
rumors are afloat to the effect that MI
would deal rather harshly with all the meui-
beers of the Finance Board because of their
actions in ignoring Mayor Wanser and fall-
ing to give the Corporation CSunselship TO
~ex-Judge Blair.
Mr.. Detwiller was called upon this morn
ing by a JERSEY CITY NEWS reporter.
Mr.. Detwiller was unable to be seen, but
sent word down stairs that he would not dis
cuss the Finance Board muddle. He is going
South in a day or two. The day or two
means that Mr.. Detwiller will not be in the
city on Friday next to vote on the veto OF
Mayor Wanser, relative to the appoint
ments of Mr.. Brinkerhoff and Mr.. Erwin.
With Mr.. Detwiller on his way to

Herman FL. Nieman of No. 1877 Pavonia
avenue complained to Judge Wilson yester-
day that on the 9th day of November, 1892,
Mrs. Freda Jurgens of No. 214 Park avenue,
Hoboken, pawned a Sc clock which he had
sold to her on the installment plan and which
she had not paid for at the time she pawned
it. When Nieman went to collect his first
weekly installment he found she had moved
to No. 4O5 Park avenue. He called upon her
at that address and she refused to pay
him claiming that she had never received the
clock and that he must have made a mistake.
He confronted her with the agreement she
had signed, but she ~repudiated it. He went
off threatening to have her arrested. When
he called the next day she told him she had
pawned the clock and gave him the ticket.
1t is from David Mayors shop O Pavonia
avenue. Mrs. Jurgens received 81 for the
clock. She is an old hand at this business,
the agent charges, and has fiim-fiammed
other agents. Over a dozen agree
ments made by different agents
from the American Wringer Company
which has ever been fulfilled. Not only has
she done agents and canvasers by the score,
but real estate agents are also looking for q
woman who resembles her very much, and
who has a reputation for moving more often
than anyone else in the line. The following
are the list of places she has lived in the last
three months in Hoboken:-No. 93 Grand st. !;

A Prominent Professor Speaks
About the Threatening Things
Abroad at This Time of the Year.
at is surprising how many people are
suffering today from so-called coughs, colds
and influenza
The remark was made by a very promi-
leading New York hospitals. Continuing,
he said.
sit is not these things that are troubling
people, but it is In advanced form of our
old enemy, the grip. People feel out of
sorts, sneeze, have pains in the muscles and
bones, nave no appetite, lose all interest in
the world and wonder what is the matter.
1t is the grip, nothing else.
"Now, all such symptoms need to have
prompt treatment. The attack must be
met and repealed at once, or it is certain to
run into something serious. l know of but
one way to certainly avoid these troubles
which are now so common, and that is to
Immediately counteract them, by using a
good, pure, strong stimulant. Nothing OF
the ordinary kind, but something pure and
scientific. For this purpose nothing has
ever equalled Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey,
which is acknowledged today by physicians
and scientific people to be the only pure,
medicinal malt whiskey upon the market.
The words of the professor are true, and
they carry a wonderful meaning to many
men and women who are suffering with the
first symptoms of grip, or else grip in its
advanced stages. For all such people we
offer a word Of advice, which is to take the
best means to overcome these troubles and
do not permit any dealer to swerve you
from your purpose to have that which has
proven itself by years of use, to be the best
and purest stimulant in the world.

THE CARDS ARE OUT.

A quartette entered the office of Justice of
the Peace Charles A. Roe on the evening of
January 4. 1t consisted of a woman and
her daughter, a young man and a friend.
After swearing the Judge to secrecy,
they told him their errand. The daughter
and the young man wanted to be married by
the civil Judge. He married them, the
mother standing by to see that the knot was
firmly tied. When it was, she heaved a
sigh of relief: the newly married young
man looked worried, and the girl looked at
him with a wistful gaze. His friend signed
the papers as having witnessed the cere-
mony. Cards have been sent out by Mrs.
w. Ronsby for a reception to be rendered to
her daughter, Mamie E. Ronsby, in honor of
her marriage to Fred Eckert.
