II was the quietest kind of holiday at
the Preside reservation, although more
people went out there yesterday than for

clumps of acacia and eucalyptus height

foliage. Nowand then tie sun hid behind

THE NEWARK MEETING.

Only very few of the cOurSing frater-
nifty nut in an appearance at the ferries
yesterday morning on their way to New
ark. The inclemency of the weather dur
ing the early hours of yesterday, no doubt,
coupled with the fact that the consolation
stake was only a small one, was the cause
of the very slim number tnat went 10 see
the finish Of tile meeting. When the few
that left the city arrived at the park there
were no more than a bakers dozen" on
the grounds. The weather, however, was
mild and the rain had ceased. After the
necessary preliminarleS were complete the
hrst OF the twelve dogs entered IN the
consolation were handed to Mr.. Wren.
The heavy rains OF the night and morning
seemed 20 affect the hares but little, for the
course between Glenade and Chief OF the
Valley was fine one and taxed the dogs to
q considerable extent. The Chief eventu-
ally got the flag. Sting and Coomasse
had also a pretty course. but though Sting
led to the game Mr.. Perry's handsome
little bitch Outworked him in a pretty
course and won. Bonnie Lass in the fol-
lowing trial run made short work of Quick
in course across the field. LongfellOw
also had an easy thing with Lion. Swift
and Jennie q had a fine course, the latter
winning by doing most of the work in the
beginning of the run. Swift then eX-
tlnguished his chance by killing too soon.
Mary Ann had tne course with Relief
She was too clever for him and won with
something to spare.
In the second round Coomassie beat Chief
Of the Valley, Longiellow beat Bonnie
Lass and Mary Ann beat Jennie q.
The two courses for the finals between
COOmasSie and LonefeilOw and that be-
tween Coomassie and Mary Ann were very
good. and the last especially was excel
lent. The hare was a RATHER, too. Mary
Ann got the lead by bare length from
COOmassie, and then took place some
clever work between both dogs aud the
hare, causing no small amount OF surprise
TO the onlOOkers. Point for point was
scored by The dogs, but Mary Ann had al
ways a little the best in the running, and
when CoOmassie eventually snapped up
the hare Mary Ann had the most to her
credit and won first mOney-S1S. Coomas-

House, and it is generally the first trial OF
strength. The anti-Sewen men put up young
Storfs of Orange. the New York lawyer,
ex-Yale athlete and society man generally,
who with Olcott of the same baIlw1ck, has
been killing General Sewell as a leader, with
his mouth, ever since election.
TOM M'EWAN WON.
Our own Thomas McEwan was nominated
by the Sewen man, and won by a vote of 20
to Is. That puts a quietus upon the anti
Sewelll movement, and shows that the Cen
eral is as much in the saddle as ever, and
that he has his boots and spurs on too.
This little matter having been settled TO
the satisfaction of the Sewell men, they pro-
ceeded to make up their slate. John l.
Holt of Passaic was named for Speaker. j.:
Herbert Potts was unanimously nominated
for Clerk, and Joshua Matlack of Burling-
ton will be his assistant. John L. Swayzee
of Sussex secured the position of journal
Clerk, so long coveted by g. Frank suther-
land, and Editor Egor Williams of the
Orange Journal snatched the Engrossing
Clerkship from Editor A. G. Studer OF the
Montelasr Times. W. !, Norton OF Mercer
will assist him. Lysander L. Watson OF
Mercer, as Sergeant-at-Arms, will give out
the nibless pens and knives that won't cut.
His first assistant will be Abel Berry OF
Hance of Morris. Harry B. Brice, a
young printer of Newark, will be the Bill
Clerk. It will be observed that Essex,
which came down with an exalted idea of
getting about everything, got very little.
DICKINSON ON TOP.
The general impression from the caucus is
that Mr.. Samivel Dickinson, 2. NJ. IS on
ton for Comptroller. Tom McEwan's sue
cess points that way, although John Ulrich

those of Judge Cross candidacy for the

the uneyenness of the pavement, to their

and made a very brief speech. He referred
to the all absorbing topic and said that the
Democrats would find out today that ten

JOIN Kean, Jr., who most solemnly started
in with one of his last campaign speeches,
which he happened to have around loose in
his mind. He said that New Jersey was
proud of the parades and, incidentally, the
Republican party, too. He told of the Won
derful things the Republicans proposed to do
in the coming Legislature, when he was cut
short by cries for SeweIl. The General
appeared at the window once more,
this time with ex-senator Nevius of
Monmouth, whom he introduced as a one
armed soldier. Senator Nevius was about to
speak, when candidate Gibson, on the stoop
beneath, drew the cork from one of the walls
of his eloquence and let it flow out in an I'M
restrained stream. Then it was funny.
Nevius saving the air in the second story
window, and Gibson describing impossible
geometrieal figures on the atmosphere with
both arms on the stoop below. They soon
choked Gibson OFF and Nevius then went on.

COLONEL FULLER GOT HIS CHEERS

Ex-Judge Hoffman and Colonel Charles
Fuller spoke at a mass meeting at Camden
during the last Presidential campaign, and
ex=Judge Hoffman tells this story about the
meeting:-
"a couple of bombastic fellows made
bloody shirt speeches which were indiffer-
emily received, and then Colonel Fuller was
introduced. The Colonel also waved the
bloody shirt wildly, and frequently pune
tuated his remarks by saying, Now, why
don't you cheer for Grover Cleveland The
Colonel did this a number of times, and
finally, when he for the last time said, Now,
why don't you cheer for Groyerg a neatly
dressed man, who stood in an aisle near the
stage, shouted
%sBy Cd, we will; boys, three cheers
for Grover Cleveland, the next President
of the United States To the consterna,
ton of the Colonel, every man in that
audience v a cheer and a tiger. The
Colonel instantly ended the speech. The
man who led the cheering was Duke Billy
Thompson, and that was the first time | had
ever met him. Thompson took me to his
house and entertained me royalty that night,
but the Colonel was out in the cold"

His Reception.

HIS Ah<CGEssANA.
Ex-Judge Hoffman, Commissioner Feeney
and several other story tellers were in
Prosecutor Winfeld's office recently, and
among the stories told was this one CON
corning ex-senator Vanderbilt. During the
recent Presidential campaign William Nc

Senator Vanderbilt was late in arriving,
and Mr.. MeAdeo and MIR. Noonan decided
not to wait for him and begin business at
once.
Ex-Congressman McAdoo had been slated
for the first speech, but for some reason he
insisted that Mr.. Roenan should precede
him. He wanted Mr.. Noonan to warm up
the audience by witticisms, and then he i'll
tended to deliver his very able and quite
celebrated naval speech. The Judge
had heard this speech a number of
times during the campaign, and was very
familiar with it, and to the amazement and
ehagrin of the ex-Congressman, Noonan,
when introduced to the audience, delivered
the naval speech. He remembered the
greater portion of the excellent arguments in
the speech, and was frequently the recipient
of loud applause.
Ex-Congressman McAdoo was forced to
follow and to talk on some other subject.
He can always make a speech, aud he ac-
quilted himself with credit. While he was
talking ex-senator Vanderbilt walked OF
the platform, and after listening to MeAdoe
for a few moments he turned to Noonan,
and asked:
"Did McAdoo make his naval speech!'
"No,p replied the Judge, 'she did not say a
word about the navy"
That's good; l guess I'll use that speech
myself commented the ex-senator.

Mr.. Vanderbilt received a warm greeting
when introduced, and sure enough he began
to rehearse the naval speech he had heard
McAdoo deliver so often, He went oven
precisely the same ground that Noonan had
covered, and looked grieved when be failed
to secure applause at a wellmade, point;
Then when one man got up and left the hall
and he was followed by another an
other, until finally the hall was half empty,
Mr.. Vanderbilt cut short MeAdoo's naval
speech and the meeting was over.
by thunder he exclaimed TO MeAdoo
and Noonan, that is the coolest reception !

be the matter!'
