NIGHT SCHOOLS TO OPEN.
for women Will BE In 81
Building.

The night schools will open on Monday
October %, in No. 2 on Erie street; No. 3
Bright street; No. s, Sherman avenue
No. II, Bergen avenue; No. Il, Union
street; No. q, Twelfth and the Central
School for advanced pupils will be held
at the High School Building On Bay
street, where English, s~tenography,
book keeping and arithmetic will be
taught. 1t will be a school for both
sexes. Mo females will be received III
any of the lower Jersey City schools, ex-
cept at No. 2 op Erie street. The obs
ject of bringing them together in one
School is to organize classes and grade
them. x
Last season only one or two female
classes were formed in each school and
much time was lost by pupils, as teach
ers had to divide the time of the, ses-
sions between those who had had some
schooling and those who had not, and
the pupils consequently lost practically
half the sitting. The change is to OBJ
viate this SO that the pupils will not
lose any time, butwiIl be steadily adj
vanced. 1t will also simplify the work
of the teachers. AT the schools or the
Heights both male and female scholars
will be received. The schools will be
opened to register pupils on Monday, Oc-
tober IS, and will be open every evening
that week except Saturday.

POETIC JUSTICE.

Leon Albeit carried the popular vote
elected three successive Legisla-
lures as an open candidate for the
United States Senate
He was beaten in the Legislature by a
combination of railroad money and pri-
vate capital, in a fight in which William
j. Sewel1 took no small part. (
In the election that is now on hand
Sewell is the railroad candidate for the
United States Senate.
1t would be but poetic justice if the
people of this State hould elect a Leg
islature that would elect Leon Albeit,
who has always served their interests,
and thereby defeat William Sewell,
who has always used public position for
the benefits of the corporations.

TRENTON, Oct. 8, 1S94.-Part | of the
annual report Of the Board of Educa-
ton of the Superintendent of Public In
struction of New Jersey, for the school
year ending June 80, 1894, has just made,
its appearance.
The report shows that in its education
al facilities and growth during the past
year the State of New Jersey has not
only nothing to be ashamed of.but much
to be congratulated Upon. The total
value of school property shown an IN
crease of more than $500, 900. and the en-
rollment of pupils in he schools has
been increased by the addition of over.
GO, 900 names. The good condition of the
States nance and the growing ten
dency to more thorough preparation Ior
teaching has Increased p~erceptibly the
average monthly salary of teachers
both male and female,
1t is unfortunate that the capacity for
accommodation and the NUMBER q
teachers added has not Kept pace with
the added number of pupils, and the
ain school districts than ever before,
but 1t Is probable that the next report
will show active remedies at work cor
recting the evil so clearly pointed out
State chool system, as cited by the SUI
p~erintendent, are an antiquated and eX-
~traVagant district system, d genera iaSh
small number of High Schools, and the
need of increased facilities for Normal
School training. The report fayors the
pIanof distributing State school moneys
according to the humber of children act
ually taught and not as now, on The
basis of the school census, or the num-
Der to be taught.
The report shows that New Jersey
has the honor of keeping her schools
open for more days in the year than
anyother state in the Union, New YORK
and the New England States not exc
cepted, n that in the competition OF
sex, in the profession of teaching, the
women are beating out the men, in num-
bers.
The financial report. by cities, shows
that Newark's school system IS Tree
from debt and that she has expended
during the past year. more than No.
600, and the city had a total balance OF
moneys of over $41, 900. According to the
census of 1898, the total number of chill
dren between the ages OF 3 ana 10
years, in Newark is s., 636, and OF these
81. 361 are enrolled in the city's ,pupic
schools. The city employs 476 teachers.
THE report compliments the state edti-
cational exhibition at the Worlds FAIR
and contains a descriptive account OF
The exposition of the College OF New
Jersey.

STATE ~GLEANINGS.

Last week Mrs. David Dilts, of Rari-
tan, killed a snake about two feet long,
under her dining room table. 1t had
been taken there by the cat.
Recently in Alloways Creek, with hook
and line, Elisha Davis caught our large
rock weighing twenty-five pounds and
pound to a pound each. The heaviest
fish weighed ten and one half pound.
Two ears of corn fourteen inches long
and nine in circumference are on exhi-
bition at Salem. They were raised by
Charles H. Steward of Elsinboro.
On the Paqua cranberry bog, at Man
week, a gang Of about 10 native pick
ers harvested 563 bushels of berries
an average of over three bushels and
a peck per picker. On Saturday 400 bush
yield or about 5000 bushels or thirty
acres.
Mays Landing Record says there
can be seen growing in h garden ad-
tin v. B.. Moore, on Sugar Hill, a novelty
in the shape of a squash
which measures twenty inches In length
The vegetable is the largest of that
variety ever grown in this section. An
other novelty in this we'll kept floral
garden, which is presided over by Bo-
tanist James King, is two orange trees
bearing fruit.
One of the, greatest curiosfties in fruit
culture is; a strawberry patch in fun
bearing, belonging 10 Danlel ware, near
Williamstown. Last week Mr.. Ware
picked twenty-five quarts of berries for
which he received $40, On Monday he
picked ten quarts more of large, fine
fruit, and there are still many green
berries on the vines. Second crop ber-
ries are an unusual thing and fruit grow
ers are unable to explain the phenom-
ena of so many of them this year.
Within the past three weeks three
cows belonging to Joseph Haines. in
Delaware Township, Hunterdon County,
haye given birth to twin calves. This is
sionally a single pair of twin calves are
born, but three pair on the same farm,
andsat almost the same time, probably is
a circumstance the like of which has
never before been heard of in that coun-
ty. Five Of these six calves are alive
and hearty, but the other one died WIN
two or three lays old.

that in the first place Moses kept the

of God; second, because he realized the
mercy of God, and thirdly, because he
realized what God commanded must be
done. He said the hyssop that was useC.

"For Virginia Campaign G. c."

1t appears from the official declara-
tions OF General Lee, OF Virginia, that
the President gave him $1,000 in fifty.
dollar bills to spend in the late Virginia
campaign, the chief feature OF which
was the choice OF legislature to elect
United States Senator, Lee being him
self a candidate. In other words the
President is spending money to bring
personal friends into the Senate at the
rate OF $1,000 per Senator. This amaz.
ing performance came out as the result
OF an investigation by the Virginia Leg
lslature into the methods which ended
in Gen. Lees defeat. How many more
such investments Mr.. Cleveland has
been making is, of course, unknown.
And this is the man who breaches to
American citizens about the corrupt in
fuences. of money in politics, who
stands up in solemn and pompous self
righteousness, and means over "the
peril of a debauched suffrage" who
wants to "arouse the American con-

peoples rights are being forgotten in
the capricious bestowal of favors," and
who begs the public to vote for him in
