A Literary Fever.

1t is interesting for a bystander
to observe the notions and hobbies
which from time to time seems to
infuse and sway the minds of the
people of our state. One month
the all absorbing topic of CONVEX
satiOn is real estate exchange,
again the Hogg division alone is
talked about and now ideas OF
education and study seems to fill
all minds.
We do not think it egOtistiCal TO
claim that this state Of affairs but
shows the power of the press.
Along the lines the leading papers
mark, the people are sure to follow
and 1t is a thing worthy of remark,
that some of the principle papers of
the state have changed their course
from selling sewing machines, ETC.,
to one of the grandest of all works,
the education of the people.
The Britannica offer of the En-
press is a good example of this. No
one can estimate the great results
of this enterprise. The equivalent
of a library of thousands Of vol
umes placed in every home. No
one can too glOwingly picture the
results upon the next generation
with this great work, the Encyclo-
paedia Britannica, as prime fac
tor in the education OF our children.
We recognize the full Importance
of this great movement in our state
and bid our worthy contemporary,
the San Antonio Express, god
speed in her work. May she place a
set of the great up-to-date Encyclo-
ppdia Britannica in every home in
San Antonio.

the committee in leaving the bills with him
was not a presentation as contemplated by
the Constitution. He replied that that was
a question for consideration. He was then
asked if the committees action was not
analogous to the service of a legal process
upon an unwilling defendant. He replied
that that, too, was a matter to be deter
mined.
The Governor was then asked if the quo
waranto proceedings foreshadowed in his in
terview of last week would be commenced
soon, and he said that he could not tell I'M
til he had consulted with the Attorney Gen
eral, which he proposed to do today.
CORNISH AM PIDCoCK CONFER.
Congressman Cornish of the Fourth dis
trict came UP from Washington this even
ing and held a long secret session with ex-
Congressman Pidcock. This revived the
rumors that Mr.. Pidcock had a scheme for
controlling the situation through the our
Senators from his Congressional district,
and wild guesses as to the amount involved
were fying about. The four Senators inter
ested. Drake of Morris, McMickle of Sussex,
States of Warren and Martin of Hunterdon,
were highly indignant over the rumors and
denied in toto all the fancy statements as to
their intentions.
A COMPARISON.
Mr.. McMickle, who is rapidly acquiring
a reputation as a humorist, said that Pidcock,
in these stories, reminded him of Satan in
the accounts of the temptation in the Will
derness. Satan offered all the kingdoms of
the earth, when he could not deliver a single
one. There are other cold-hearted individ-
uals who profess to see in these secret con-
ferences an effort to make Billy Thompson
come down.
WHAT THOMPSON SAYS
Some hint of this was conveyed to Thomp-
son and he laughed at it. He said most en-
phatically that the race tracks had nothing
to do with the deadlock and that he would
not put up a sou markee to keep it going.
As for. Gloucester, he said, looking awfully
serious and solemnlike, that track woul not
open next month or at any other time under
any circumstances. This sounds all very
well, except to those who recall the solemn
and earnest manner in which Mr.. Thompson
declared in the early days of the last session
that no race track bills would be passed.

ST. PETERS sODALlTY LYOEUM.
Their Dramatic Entertainment
Grand Success.

The dramatic entertainment given by the
members of st. Peters Sodality Lyceum
last night at the college hall was attended
by about 800 persons, and was greatly ap-
preciated. The play was 1.-THE White Horse
of the Peppers and it was rich in jokes
and dramatic situations. The characters
were as follows - Colonel Chesham, by
Richard O'Neill; Major Hans Mansfield,
Thomas F. Rooney; Darby Donoghue, Thos.
J.. Lillis Phelim, William Donelon {;
Portreene, Edward McGeer: Gerald Pepper,
John F. Murphy; Maurice Pepper, Gerald's
father, Richard F.. Lee; Fitz, a servant, Pat
rick J. Lillis; Dillon, a lawyer, Vincent F.
Wasilewski.
The play contained four acts and they were
all very entertaining and were enthusiastic
ally applauded. There was just comedy
enough in them to enliven the dramatic
scenes, and the music was excellent.
The entertainment concluded with the
laughable farce Done Brown" This
amusing creation was given by the best
amateur talent in the college, and the efforts
to please were much appreciated.
William j. Corless as Fitzslang was very
good, and John E. Rooney made an excel
lent Monsieur Leclef. John E. Callahan as
Murphy O'Filliloo, an Odd Fellow
and Free Mason was very funny
and John f. Nugent as Boosey,
created much laughter. Alfred Bingham, a
young lover, was played by Sohn j. Clinton,
and William Clarke made a hit as Mr..
WInks. a lodging house keeper. The per-
Torrance will be repeated tonight and it
will repay anyone to go there and witness it.

The Republican Senate held quite a lengthy
session. Mr.. Ketcham presented a long pc
tition, asking for the enactment OF a law
compelling the teaching of the effects OF al

and one from Orange asking for the
repeal of the law which requires the
consent of property owners for the laying

TIT BRIDGE

1t was the intention Of the Committee on
New Public Road to examine yesterday the
work that had been dom on the County
Boulevard, but the failure of two members
of the committee to put in an appearance
prevented the inspection. The Committee on
North Bridges. however, drove to the West
Newark avenue bridge over the Haekensack
and examined it. While the bridge is I'M
doubtedly a good one, some finishing touches
must be added. The draw would not open
yesterday, and Engineer Moylan said this
was caused by the newness of the machinery.
The draw had not been opened for a week,
days, to enable the Pennsylvania Railway
Company to build a new freight bridge.
With the exception of the condition of the
draw and the gates at each end Of it, the
committee expressed themselves as satisfied
with the work,
