AN ACCOMMODATING LION.

An athlete one vacation
Met lion in privation
On desert where the lion food was rare.
The lion was delighted
That the athlete he had sighted,
But the athlete wished that he had been
elsewhere.
The athlete dared not fight him,
And he recalled an item
That was published in some journal he had
read
OF lion that retreated,
Disheartened and defeated,
When an unarmed hunter stood upon his
head.
On this hint from print extracted
The athlete promptly acted
And brandished both his shoe heels high
ia air.
Upon his feat amazing
The lion sat a-gazing
And studied the phenomenon with care.
Said the lion: ''This position
Is quite against tradition,
But I'll gladly eat you any way you choose.
Inverted perpendicular
VIII do. I'm not particular"
He finished him, beginning with his shoes.

A PROFESSOR
Mfss McCauley of Chesters vigorously
Resents a Slanderous Report.

MISS I1cGAuloy Oh NAAESsoN9
Resents a Slahderous Report.
Special to the Jersey CITY Neius-
ATLANTIC CITY. May A, 1s94-Miss May
McCauley, a young lady of Chester, Pa, has
made a reputation for herself in this city by
horsewhipping Prof. Michael J. Riley, a
local dancing master.
Miss McCauley, who is about eighteen
years of age, and a niece. Of A. g. Steelman,
a well known merchant Of this city, came
here on a visit some six weeks ago. She
made the acquaintance of MI. Riley and for
| some time they were fast friends, but upon
hearing scandalous reports circulated by
| her supposed friend she accused him there
of and produced the proofs to back her as
| s~ertions.
Riley denied the charges, but threatened
to get even with her If she cut his society:
She warned him at the time that it she heard
anv more reports as coming from him she
| would horsewhip him. She was as good as
| her word and on Monday when Riley told her
friends that he would spoil Miss McCauley's
beauty, she purchased q cowhide and waited
her chance. In meeting him on Michigan
avenue on that evening she applied her whip
with all her force on her accuser's face, and
did not desist until her slanderer cried for
mercy.
Both are well known people and an effort
was made TO keep the matter out OF the
papers, but Miss McCauley says that now she
has vindicated herself she does not care who
knows the truth.

KILLED AND He DRUNK.
James Egan Run over by a Hobo
ken TROLLEY Car.

James Egan, a mechanic, living on Beacon
avenue, who was temporarily employed on
the Bergenline venue and Fourteenth street
trolley line in the northern part of the
county, was instantly killed OF thirty-fve
minutes past two o'clock this morning at
Willow avenue and Seventeenth street, ,Ho-
boken. This is the first victim of this line,
which has been in operation a little over a
year. Egan was paid yesterday afternoon
by the North Hudson County Railway
Company for a weeks services.
He squandered the greater part Of the
treacherous "loadR aboard.
Ten minutes before he was killed he stood
conversing, as well as he could, with the
1agunan at the Erie Railway crossing at
Ninteenth street and Willow avenue. Frank
Stone, the aagman, says Egan was very
drunk, and he cautioned him against getting
in the path of the trolley cars. Egan laugh
ed and staggered down Willow avenue. The
cars at this time of morning run at inter
walls of ONE thirty minutes. Egan became
tired when he reached Seventeenth street,
and thought the road bed was soft enough
TO sleep comfortably upon.
He lay down upon the last track, directly
across it. In a few moments car No. 80,
Fred W. Ruehl, motorman, came dashing
corner was dark, and Ruehl did not see the
man lying across the rails. The car gave a
jounce as it ran into the mar. the front
wheels passing over Egan's bo1J. Ruehl
applied the brakes in time to prevent the
mind wheels from running over him. Super
intendent AK. Bonita was summoned, and
witha gang of men helped lift the car so
that Egan's inanimats body might be lifted
from under the wheels. The chest was
crushed in and both legs broken and mashed.
Coroner Volk was notified, and he conveyed
the body to the morgue.
Rneh1 and the conductor, Richard Ohm
stedt, of No. 452 Spring street, West Ho-
boken, were arrested. Ruehl is thirty-three
years of age, andhves at No. 400 Walnut
street, Vest Hoboken.
E. b. Williams, a watchman at Nevins'
coal yards at Willow avenue and Eigh-
teenth street, witnessed the accident, and
relates it as told here. Olmstedt and Ruehl
were arraigned before Recorder Melon
ough this morning. Ruehl was held for the
Coroner who may accept bail at his discre-
ton. Ofnstedt was released.

SIMPSON HOPES TO GET EVEN.
Preparing to IGNORE the Wanser
Aldermen.

Preparing to IGNORE h Wanser
Aldermen.
Next Tuesday evening the new Board Of
Aldermen win organize. It will be COM
posed Of nine Republican members and four
democrats. After Reorganization is effect
ed the meetings will, In all probability, be
tame ones. There is trouble ahead, low
ever, for Chairman Simpson. He feels
piqued over the rough treatment he received
In the distribution of committees In the
Board of Finance. AS a result, he has a
knife up his sleeve for Mayor Wanser
and for the Mayors firm supporters.
Mr.. SIMPSONS opportunity to square him
self with the Wanserites comes when the
new Board Of Aldermen organizes. He ap-
points the committees. Some Of the Com
mittees control a little patronage, and it has
been whispered about Cfsy Hall for the past
day or two hat the committees controlling
any patronage viii be kept far beyond the
reach OF Mayor Wanser's friends,
Mr.. Simpsons plan, however, will proba-
such a course. Not many years ago
when the Republicans controlled the
Board OF Aldermen by means Of the vote of
a certain Democratic member the rules
governing the board were changed and the
power Of naming committees was wrested
from the hands Of Chairman Charles Allen,
who was a democrat. If Mr.. Simpson at
tempts any funny business he is to be given
q dose Of the same medicine. The outlook Id
not very bright for Simpsons getting away
with his plan. City Clerk Scott will be re-
elected and his clerical force is not likely to
be disturbed. Inspector Of Scales, Weights
end Measures John Graham will succeed
City Marshal Tim Long. For Graham's
place there are no less than thirty hungry
Candidates. The Aldermen cannot agree
upon q man, and the fight will be settled by
ballots at the meeting. the same course
will have to be pursued in the naming of a
successor to Building Inspector Macarthur.
Macarthur goes to the new Board of Works.
Samuel Jones, one of Samuel D~icklnson's
l~ieutenants, is said to be a probable winner.
