Attacked by Two Men.

George Woods, Jr, of Red Bank,
was a scared man Thursday night.
If it hadn't been for his nerve and bis,
revolver he might have been used up
individual The night was dark and
rainy.
The Commissioner lives in the west
ern part of the town, and was going
home about IL O'Clock. After crossing
the New York and Long Branch Rail-
road track he thought he heard footsteps
but could not see any one in the dark
ness. Strange thoughts crept into bis
mind when he approached the place
where a fatal blow was dealt the faith
full servant, Lizzie Farrell, few years
ago. Again ne thought he heard quick
footsteps. Quickly turning, he saw two
men RAINING across the road tow ards
hin. He permitted them to come with
in few feet. and. then. drawing his re-
volver, told them that if they did not
leave him inside of ten seconds he
would shoot. The strangers beat hasty
retreat. Mr.. Woods went to his home
unmolested
Friday he saw the men. and notifying
the police had them arrested. They
gave their names as Robert Lane and
John Williams, and denied that they
were on evil intent. Justice Cothr en-
committed them to Freehold Jail to
await the action of the Grand Jury.

At An Euyptian Dinner.

Immen Pasha's dinner was given to
Miss Page although it was ostensibly in
honor of the British Minister, whose
wife sat on Immen's right. and tested
that Orientals composed politeness
greatly. But at times be would turn to
Miss Page and she would murmur with
him in French and he would have his
reward. The condition upon which Miss
Page had come to the dinner was that it
should be an oriental one throughout,
and so the table was accordingly of
silver, and each strange sticky course
was served in golden bowl, and each
fork and spoon bore ruby and dia-
mond in its handle.
Diamonds and rubies are my jewels, "
Immen explained simply, as one wonld
say, sBlue and yellow are my racing
coIors," or that such sentence was the
motto of his family.
A native orchestra played from a
balcony of heavily carved wood that
stretched across one end of the room,
the bright eyes of Immen's wife who
was politely supposed to have already de-
parted for Alexandria, but who in reality
was looking with wonder and misgiyings
upon the bold women. With naked faces
and shoulders, who sat at her husbands 8
side, and talked to him without waiting
for him to give leave.
There were many people at the re-
ception which followed the dinner; wise
looking judges of the Mixed Courts and
their wives and native princes, secre-
taries of the many diplomatic agencies,
and abundance of scarlet mess-jackets
on officers of the Army of Occupation.
They outshone even the women in the
brilliancy of their apparel, with their
broad bands of gold braid and rows of
tiny brass buttons. They out shone the
men, too, in the ruddy tan of their
faces, burned by the Soudan and rongh-
ened by the fine sand of the desert. They
we're a handsomest arrogant-looking
group; some With the fez, which seemed
strangely out of the place on their yellow
hair. and which showed that they served
the Khedive, and others with strips of
tiny ribbons across their breasts, to
show that they had served the Queen,
and each of these Englishmen moved
about with the uneasy, self-assertive air
of one who knows about that he is well
coined through necessity and only be-
cause he holds his place in society about
him by force of arms. From ''The
Writing on the WALL" a story Richard
Harding Davis, in Harper's Magazine

The annual election for School Trus
tee took place Tuesday of last week at
Atlantic Highlands. The attendance
was so large that many left the school
house room fearing the floor would go
down. The cause was the candidacy OF
Mrs Mary Oliver for the Trusteesbip
against Samuel A. Foster. The Wo-
mems Christian Union supported Mrs.
Oliver and they visited nearly every vo-
ter in the district. They went to the
polls in ge.loads and hundreds were
on foot. Many could not get around in
time to vote. The total vote cast was
269, Foster got lat and Oliver 122.
The victory was loudly cheered, which
the chairman deprecated as impolite to
the women.

to have the dignity Of the state sacrificed

accessory. The exhibition was at Edi-

the purpose of allowing him to expert

THE results Of the Maine election
afford a good illustration Of the way the
Democrats feel toward the present adj
ministration. While the Republican vote
shows an increase over that Of 1892 Of
about 1000 votes, the Democratic vote
shows loss of $4,000 votes. and they
didn't 60 anywhere else, either-they
stayed at home. The Populists and the
Prohibitionists each sustained a loss of
about 1000 votes. These results are
based on the returns from 800 towns. 1t
will be hard for Ohio to make as good
showing for Republication as Maine. AS
Tom Reed is the biggest Republican in
Maine, the result of the recent election
may fairly be taken as an endorsement
of him and his views on silver and every
thing else.

BROUGHT BEFORE THEBAH

pie Caught.
Six cases from Smoky Row that Officer
Capron had IN tow were before his
majesty in police court this morning.
Last night about ten o'clock officer
Capron was informed that Il bird street
house was a scene of merriment and Of
boisterous hilarity and should be sup
pressed He called on the house as soon
as possible and found there a scene that
would have brought a blush to Nero's
cheek and caused him to send for his
violoncello. There were four of the gall
lants, J. D. Montgomery, j. A. Blake, Sam
Fndlay and VIM. Hart and they had
been making fashionable call
on Misses Matte Grizzard and
Fannie Harris. Matte and Fannie
are decided brunettes with kinks
in their hair. The boys wear white skins.
Officer Capron says the biggest one Of
the boys almost tainted when he
rested All of them pleaded guilty in
court this morning and each was fined
five dollars. 1t took about three minutes
to fine the six of them. They are all in
Jail
NJ. Mclaughlin, who played with the
bottles on Smoky Row Wednesday night
and was caught in the act by Officer
Capron, was fined five dollars. He was
awful mad about it and came near catch
ing an extra fine for being sassy" to the
jkdge. He didn't pay his fine.
S. P Dillon, the Rock Island detective,
who Henry Jamison claims disturbed
his domestic tranquility and mussed his
hair, was fined five dollars for doing it.
He is in jail yet.
