A FISH HOTEL.

New York is truly Cosmopolitan. 1t
has long possessed fish houses if not
'fishy'' ones. but now Castle Garden is
to be turned into a bona fide hosiery
for fishy characters. 1t will probably be
opened, and when that event does take
place great changes win be found to
have been made in the interior of the
building where Jenny Lind once sang,
and where for many years the future
police force of New York took their first
steps on American soil. A wide balcony
has been put in, and skylights and wind
up with glass tinted a pale blue, which
will give the place an appearance of
possessing a great amount of light and
air.
Abouttthe floor are scattered immense
tanks, in which the fish will swim,
sharks be seen, and sea lions roar, while
in the largest tank of all it is proposed
to cage whale-thongh one hasn't been
caught yet. All the tanks arctic be lined
with white tiles, an improving %innova-
ton on the arrangements IN any other
of the great aquariums of the world.

MR.. WHITES SUCCESSOR.
The Republican District Attorneys
Term Exnires

AT noon tomorrow the four-year term
of United States District Attorney Henry
s. White will expire. Unless his sue
cessor shall have been named by Presi-
dent Cleveland and confirmed by Con-
gress by that time, the office Will have to
be filed by a temporary appointment by
the Supreme Court Judge presiding in
the circuit. In this instance 1t is Judge
Shiras of Pittsburg, and as the chance of
a permanent appointment being. made by
the President before Wednesday noon
is very slight, the several candidates are
bringing all their influence to Dear upon
d Shiras. The reason for this is
that each probably reasons that If he
gets the temporary appointment it will
be sort of boost into the head of the
nent one. With all the pulling, however,
it is not unlikely that neither will step
into Mr., Whites shoes to Their await
present indications are that the tenn
porary appointment will fall to the lot
eff the present incumbent. If this is
done the fight will be on with no change
from the present.
There are at least five candidates in
the field, with j. w. Beekman of Perath
Amboy well up toward the front. Cap
tain James Parker, also of Perth Amboy,
is still in the race, despite the fact that
his name was once formally presented
by President Cleveland and then with
drawn. He is confident, too, of success,
although there are heavy odds against
him. He believes that right will pre-
vail. but to further explain himself or to
go into the details of the matter he is
not inclined. Other candidates are H.
NJ. t. Beekman of Somerville, General
w. c.. H-eppenheimer of Jersey City,
who says, however. that he has with
drawn formally. and Preston Steven
son of Paterson. who once ran against
the late William Walter Phelps for Con-
greSs.
By those who know about how things
are drifting it is facetiously said that
the new man will be Miles Ross under
another name" which is taken to mean
J. w. Beekman of Perth Amboy. The
fight is exciting the l~iveliest kind Of
interest all over the State, and every
little development is being eagerly
watched for.
The office is an important one, as the
district covers the entire State of New
Jersey, and is regarded as one of the
most important in the country, lying as
ii does between New York and Philadel-
phia, and including the European steam
ship landings in Hoboken.

Sheriff Edges Preparations to Hang

TRENTON, Aug. q, 1S94.-If there is
ever another hanging in Mercer County
after Koccis is executed, there will be
no tronble about securing the scaffolds,
as the county will own one. Sheriff Ege
has determined or having one made,
and Curren & Lynch have undertaken
the contract. 1t will be made under
the personal supervision of the sheriff,
and will be first class in every respect"
Yesterday the sheriff and the mechan-
les who will construct the gaIlows went
to Camden to inspect the one that is
owned by Camden County, to obtain
the necessary plans. 1t will be construc-
ted at once on their return, and will UNI
doubleday be ready in time, as it is still
nearly three weeks before it will be
used.

crime for which he "a the penalty on

Julianna Bindas and Mrs. Mari Kisseda,
felloW-countrywomen and neighbors in
South Trenton. 1t is supposed that the
goods have been kept by them intact.
From what KocciS now hears, these wo-
men want to beat him out of the goods
now claim that the goods were given
into their possession by the court. Koecis
denies this, and so far as is known he is
correct Sheriff Eye has taken "a hand

that keccis' interests are protected, and
he Instructed Koccis' lawyers to take

matter; as the idea that Mrs. tBindas

AUTOMATIC HORSE FEEDING.
Simple Combination of an Alarm
Clock and a Few Batteries.
Invention.


An electric horse feeder is a new inven-
ton brought out by Mr.. Anderson, of Ches-
terfield, for securing the regular feeding of
horses during the absence from any cause
of the stableman or groom. The apparatus
is described as being very simple. the law
of gravitation being depended upon to ac-
complsh most of the work. The first reuui-
site is alarm clock, which should be
good enough not to stop casually, but need
not be expensive. The electrical plant is
that needed for an ordinary electric bell,
four cells of the Leclanche type of battery
being sufficient for any distance up to two
hundred yards. The third portion Of the ap-
paratus is the feeder-that is to say, the
vessel holding the corn or corn and chaff
as the case may be. The clock, which is
the prime mover OF the whole concern, NAV
be in the house, the harness room or any
where but If it be more than two hundred
yards away from the feeder more power
full battery will be required.
To the feeder the first thing is to set
the alarm of the clock at the hour at which
ii is desired that the horse should be fed
The food is then placed in Unlike biscuit
box, which is turned upside down and
placed in the proper compartment of the
shoot, when the lid of the box is drawn
out the corn then resting upon the floor
of trap-like arrangement, held in its place
by simple contrivance. When the alarm
goes off button is pressed and the circuit
is completed. A weight falls the bottom of
the feed box is released and the corn falls
out into the manger.
