with the subscriber on the now famous
case in which he has been SO prominent.
ut is queer how the lawyers in this

things sometimes make me think that

course in life at all, but that there is a

''Our parents were neighbors and
great friends, and in those days old Gov
ernor Morrow was a great man in the
neighborhood, and so Jere was named
after him, his full name being Jeremiah
Morrow Wilson. And we both studied
law with the same man, General Durbin
Ward. Mr.. Wilson, however, is several
years older than l am, and was taught
to look up to him as one of the big boys
of the neighborhood. We plowed and
hoed corn in neighboring fields and grew
up under exactly the same circu1n-
stances. His father was long clerk of
the county court and was a sort of gen
eral adviser and good natured helper to
all the neighborhood. He wrote the peo-
pies wills and drew up their contracts
and arbitrated their little disputes and
in general way was judge, lawyer and
helper to everybody.

THE CUBAN GIRL.

Hedged About by COnventiOnalities
aud Queer Spanish Customs.
A Cuban girls life is very restricted and
she is never allowed to go out alone or re-
ceive callers of the other sex except in the
presence of her chaperon or some member
of her family. If during her childhood she
attends day school maid or some family
servant takes her there every day. and she
can not go as short distance as across the
street unaccompanied.
In some instances Spanish customs are
absurd and incongruous. Every well-htted
establishment in Cuba is provided with a
concierge to guard the entrance and admit
callers. This man, usually an ignorant
peasant, sometimes escorts the young ladies
of the family he is serving. and that is con
sidered perfectly proper, whereas it would
not be proper for them to go out attended by
a gentleman, even if he were old enough to
be their father, and an old friend of the
family as well.
OF late years, however, the frequent in
tercourse between Cuba and the United
States has somewhat modified the customs.
For instance, two ladies can now go out
alone in Havana in the daytime, which
would have been considered an unheard-of
and most shocking proceeding few years
ago.
The social pastimes girl enjoys in Cuba
consist of balls, parties, concerts. receptions,
the theatre and opera, and picnics-for Gu
bans have adopted this American diversion,
although in modified form, to suit the re-
quirements of Cuban etiquette. North

Employees of the Grimng Company
Ask for an Increase.

Employees of the Grimng Company
Ask for an Increase.
The employees of the Grifing Iron Works
of Lafayette have made demand for an
increase in wages and if it is not granted
they say they will go out on strike. Last
December the officials of the company fol-
lowed the example of other large Republican
manufacturers of the United States and
made reduction in wages, upon the ground
that hard times affected their business, but
now that the works are again running on
full time the officials refuse to place the
wages at the old schedule. The employees,
when they accepted a reduction in wages,
did SO with the understanding that when the
works again began running as formerly they
would receive the same wages as before the
reduction
REPRESENTATIVES from all the departments
of the works called upon President Williams
Yesterday and demanded that their wages
be increased Last week the men were as
sured by the officials of the company that
they would receive an answer to their de-
mands on Tuesday last, but as they failed to
keep their promise they were again visited
yesterday. President Williams promised to
give them written answer next Tuesday.
The employees have organized a labor asso-
citation, and all but few of the men In the
works are members of it, The association
has received word for the men who are not
members, that they will go out on strike if
the ASSOCIATION calls out its members, and
if a strike is declared the works will have to
be shut down.
One of the foundrymen, when interviewed
by a reporter of THE JERSEY CITY NEWS
this morning, said:-"The company has
taken advantage of the hard times to cut
our wages, but now that the works are run
ming on full time, with many contracts to
fill, the officials are trying to make us be-
leve that hard times are still experienced at
our works. but we know better. The COM
pany can now well afford to work
under the old schedule of wages, and we are
determined that they SHALL or else we won't
work for them"

RILEY's GHOST STORY.

Frank Riley of No. 267 Madison street,
New York, claims that while making his
way from the Erie Railroad depot to the
Pennsylvania depot, where he proposed tax
ing train, last night, for Washington, D.
c., he was set upon by two men, who threw
a handkerchief over his eyes and robbed him
of $50. The mans story is not believed,
Justice O'Donnell being Of the opinion that
he got drunk and spent the money. When
he arrived at the Erie ferry he walked up
Pavonia avenue, stopping in several saloons
to secure drinks. At two o'clock this morp-
ing, when arrested, he was drunk.
At the Second precinct station house he
was asked if he could identify the men who
robbed him. He replied in the affirmative.
A platoon of reserve policemen were drawn
up in front of him and he pointed out q
certain sergeant as the thief. He is held
pending further investigation of the case
The sergeant he pointed out as the thief had
not been out of the station house all night.

John Huth Assailed by Two Hobo

John Huth, who resides at Palisade and
Hoboken avenues, walked to Passaic yester-
day to visit friends. On his return he stepped
into Stuart Lowery's road house for a drink.
Thereihe made the acquaintance of Rudolph
Beeckman of No. 95 Clinton street, Hoboken,
and Jacob Dunbirer of No. N Jefferson
street, Hoboken, both hack drivers, who had
also been to Passaic. They invited him to
ride home in their hack. Huth accepted, he
and Dunbirer entering the hack, while
Beeckman jumped upon the box. When the
men were out of sight and hearing of any
person on the Paterson Plank Road, Dun
birer called to Beeckman to stop the horses.
Beeckman obeyed and jumped down from
the seat As soon as he reached the ground,
Huth says, Dunbirer struck him in the face
with blunt instrument at the same time
pushing him out of the carriage. he fell to
the ground and was pounced upon by Beck
man, who proceeded to punch and kick him
until be was almost unconscious. They
then relieved him of SIS in cash and
a gold watch and chain, Jumping into the
hack, they drove rapidly away. Huth soon
collected his scattered wits and ran after the
men for over a mile. When he neared
Zabriskie street he met Officer Waters of
the Sixth precinct, who joined in the chase.
They captured the men on Zabriskie street.
This morning they were arraigned before
Judge Birdsall and held in $1,000 bail for

BASEBALL SEASON OPENED.
Great Excitement In Baltimore,
Where the Now Works Play.

Wher6 the new xOrkS FIaTs
BALTIMORE, Md, April 10, 1s94-Th
baseball fever is epidemic in the Monumental
City. The advance sale of the reserved seats
for the opening game of the great annual
race for the League championship has
exceeded all previous records by a
thousand The good work of the Baltimore
club during the practice season, the team
having played nineteen games without
meeting defeat, has had Its effect among
the admirers of the sport For weeks
they have been looking forward to the
first championship game and the fact that
the New Yorks-always favorites in Balti-
more-were to be the first to
to the interest Extensive preparations
have been made for this afternoons
contest at Union Park and the Baltimore
management means to make memorable the
opening day of 1894. The grand stand is
gaily decorated with vari-colored bunting
and flags futter from the flag poles and
from cords which are stretched.
Sauerwald's Band will give a concert at the
grounds before the game, and will play in
spring airs between the innings. The as
semblage of spectators will be the largest
and most distinguished that has ever wit
messed baseball game in Baltimore.
About $50 New Workers arrived on a
special train at Union depot today. They
were met by officials of the Baltimore Club
escorted to the Eutaw House. The play
ers of each club, invited guests and
visiting and local press representatives
all in carriages, accompanied by a brass
band, left that point at one o'clock and
traversed the principal streets, landing at
Union Park an hour before game was called.
The morning was not particularly promis-
ing for fair weather but as the day rdvrnced
the sun asserted its power and the weather
became warm and inspiring. The prospects
are that no rain fall will mar the opening of
the league season in Baltimore.
