Brief But Refreshing.

The difficulty which boys and girls
experience in expressing their ideas
in writing is notorious. An examin-
er at a seminary for young ladies
requested one of them the other day
to give him her notion of what sort
OF telegram she would send TO her
father IN the event of her having met
with a railway accident. 1t was
a thing that might occur, of course,
and the lesson prove useful; but in
any case it would give an idea of her
mertal resources.
He threw out no hints, but with
the provision that it should be as brief
as possible, left the whole compost
tion to the young lady's imagination.
This was the telegram "Dear Papa
Dear mama is killed ). Jane Cher
sister) and are in the refreshment
room.

that any good thing can come from
such party, organized in such a
way! Why does any man--why
does any white man--born in the
State OF Arkansas, with the memo
rles OF what the Democratic party
has done for him and'his people
why does he want to leave the Dem
ocratic party for any party upon the
face OF Gods green earth?
My friends, 1 tell you, when yon
leave the Democratic party, you in
vlte return of all the terrors. of all
the tyranny and Of all the despotism
that has scourged this fair land in
years gone by. God forbid that
they should ever return.

Jones says of the Populites, viz;
Some of you Populists won't be in

You Third party fellows are good
set. You'll get to heaven, but you'll
never get to Washington; and by
the way, that's not on the way to

The POpnlite Party.

The Boston Herald thinks that il
the principles of the Peoples or Pop
ulst party do not kill IL, the leaders
1t lnvariably puts forth would be
sufficient to do so. II says:
"If the Populists Of the South and
West had better principles on which
TO appeal the people, the candidates
they have brought to the front would
be enough to condemn them. The
governors Of Kansas and Colorado
have an unenviaple notoriety in this
respect. The man who has just heen
defeated as a candidate for governor
OF Alabama in face of Massachusetts
aid, Is proving his unfitness for the
position by the manner in which he
is conducting himself under defeat.
In South Carolina Governor Tillman
and Senator Irby are a terrible fall
ing off from the class of candidates
that credit upon parties. This kind
of representation is apt to be in the
way Of the success of an honest
movement Of the people, as the Pop
ulist movement dnquestionably is in
the bulk of its supporters, but the
party has had more Than usually bad
luck in this respect. There is
enough in the character of the men
we have instanced alone to compel
ii to short life in American public
affairs.

He Was Dismissed as Detective In
1890.
The case of Detective Douglass, who was
dismissed from the force in 1890, was revived
at yesterdays meeting of the Police Board
Douglass was reinstated and ordered to pro-
cure a uniform and report to Chief Murphy
for assignment to duty. Mr.. William d.
Edwards has been w%rongfully charged with
neglecting to appeal Douglass case.
Mr.. Edwards, in a communication
sent to the board yesterday, de-
clared that when Douglass won his suit
against the CITY, he (Mr. Edwards directed
City Attorney Hudspeth to appeal the case,

pressed it as his opinion that Douglass is not
now entitled to pay for work which he did
not do. The fact that an appeal was not

There is some question now whether Doug
lass will don d uniform or not. If he does
not he will be dismissed.

COUNTY BOARD OF HEALTH.
Physicians Seem to Take Pleasure in
ignoring 1t.

ignoring He
At the meeting of the County of Health
Yesterday Mrs. Ada Roberts complained that
the births of her four children had not been
recorded, and the counsel to the board was
instructed to ascertain why.
J. G.. Black notified the board that the
death of his mother had been caused by
stagnant water in a sunken lot on Hague
street. near the Paterson Plank Road. In
spector Nevin said that a new sewer was be-
ing constructed at this place which would
drain the lots, and the board lett the COM
plaint with the counsel for his action.
Since the creation of the board physicians
lave laughed al it, and whenever oppor-
tunity was afforded have completely ignored
its rules. So notorious was the disregard Of
the rules of the Board of Health that some
time ago that body directed Counsellor
Winfield to write to the offending physicians
and insist that they recognize the County
Board Of Health. MI. Winfield did as d.
rected. and yesterday when he made his re-
port of the result, lie said
ssThere has been a growing looseness
among physicians int reporting deaths from
contagious diseases and births"
The report did not please the board and it
decided to make an example of the offending
physicians. The clerk was instructed to
look up all such cases and report at the next
meeting, when the Board of Health will take
such action as it deems proper to compel
recognition.
Inspector Tierney reported that a sewer on
Fourth street should be cleaned, and the
clerk was directed to notify the Board of
Street and Water Commissioners of the fact.
Clerk Rooney reported contagious diseases
during March as follows:-Jersey City,
diphtheria, 50; county, "a; scarlet fever,

city, 10: county, IA; typhoid fever, city, .;

The Police Commissioner at a meeting
Yesterday afternoon made the contemplated
reinstatement of Captain William H. LANCE
as Inspector. Captain LANCE was Inspector

placed Sergeant Cox in command of the
Seventh precinct temporarily. Commits
sioner Van Keuren is a Cox man
and wanted him appointed captain yester-
day. Commissioners Abernethy, however, is
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of consolidating

ment was not discussed. Commissions
