Hasbrouck Institute has just received
from one OF its former graduates, Mr..
Nicholas g. Vreeland, a very fine portrait of
Prof. Washington Hasbrouck, who founded
the Institute in 1857. The picture hangs in
the main hall, where the kindly eyes Of the
founder may still see everything that
happens.
Principal Stimets recently made a short
address to the pupils, telling them the his
tory Of the Institute from its establishment.
He spoke of Prot. Hasbrouck as having al
ways a kindly smile and a joke for his
boys.
In 1876 Principal StiInets, who is a grad
uate of the Oswego Normal School, took
charge OF the Institute, and two years after
Mr.. b. G. Waltz a Yaletman, became vice
principal.
Since 1857 HasbrQuck Institute has grown

if he could view the new building.

THE ELKg SUCCESSFUL BENEFIT

It Is doubtful if the Academy Of Music
ever held a larger or more delightful audi
ence than that present last night to witness
the entertainment given for Che benefit of
Lodge No. 211 Of the Benevolent and Pro
tective Order of Elks. The best evidence of
the excellence Of the performance was
shown by the fact that through the long pro-
gramme of fifteen numbers, lasting from
eight o'clock till midnight. scarcely a per
son left the theatre till the finish. Where
there were so many good things it would be
impossible to i~ndividualize, except in the
case Of Miss Lottie Gibson, who was the
bright particular star of the evening. Miss
ellison, in her naive way described, such a
Funny Sensation, and told of the expert
ences of her little Brother Willie, who
"Knew Just Exactly What to Do" The
Elks are to be congratulated on the success
of their effort.

Republican Comment on Judge
Abbett's Opinion.

Abbett's Opinion.
The Republican papers comment,
as might be expected, In a strain OF
rank dishonesty upon Judge Abbett's
opinion upon the status OF the rival
Senates. It is hard TO think they are
SO stupid as to misunderstood it, but
the only alternative is to Judge them
INSCRIPTIONS enough to deliberately
misrepresent it. For instance, when
the Newark Advertiser says that the
opinion upholds the contention OF the
Democratic counsel, it Is impossible
to believe that the statement was
made in good faith. The editor of
the Advertiser is not precisely a fool.
He can read English and in q limited
way understand it. If he read this
opinion he must have known that II
was hostile to the contentious of the
Democratic counsel on every practical
point.
Judge Albeit, it is true, held that
the Senate of New Jersey is a con-
tinucus body. and in this we believe
he is right. We differ from him-with
all due humility-as to the status OF
new members. He holds that they
must have their credentials approved
by the Senate, that is to say, by the
holdovsrs before being admitted; we
think with the other judges that they
become members by the mere progress
of time, that is, they become Senators
the moment the term for which they
were elected begins. AL su bsequent
proceedings are mere formalities-
They are part and parcsi Of the CON
tinuous Senate from the moment their
predecessors go out of office, and
therefore they take part in the review
OF credentials, Including their own
But as Judge Albeit applies his
theoretic principles, they accord pra c.
tically with the Republican claims.
He holds that though there ere only
thirteen members actually sitting In
the Senate, the quorum and efficient
majority remained as of the eRttre
body, that is to say, q majority Of
twenty-one, the distinct contention
of the Democratic lawyers having
been that a majority of the Senators
actually sitting was potent to rams
act business, elect a President and
organize the Senate.
Ii business had been conducted on
Judge Abbett's plan. 1t is true a com
pIete deadlock might have occurred,
since both parties among the hold
exers should have combined to secure
a quorum, but non OF the acts which
Adrain & Go. attempted to perform
could ever have boon contemplated.
We do not think any one has ever
been quite satisfied with the decision
of Judge Beasiey and his asserting
colleagues. We believe there is a gem
eral idea that they went toe far IN
denying all continuity in the Senate.
In this respect. Judge Abbett's ideas
will meet with more general assent.
We cannot say that we think it will be
hailed as disposing of all the points
involved to the full public satisfac-
ton; but at any rate it will be re-
ceived with respect as an able,
thoughtful, impartial and consci-
entious discussion of the issues.

CORPORATION LAWYERS AGAINST
Serving of Process I'm Suits Against
Foreign Corporations.

Foreign Corporations. (.
Judge Green, In the United States Circuit
Court. has recently given a decision as to she
irving of process In suits against foreign
corporations which will probably not be
favorably regarded by corporation lawyers.
The New Jersey statute provides that in
pers onrl suits or actions brought in this
Stat against foreign corporations process
may be served upon ANY officer, director,
agent, clerk or engineer In an action In
the United States Court the luminous was
served upon a locomotive engineer Of
the Delaware, Lackawanna aud West
ern Railroad Company. The attorneys
for the railroad company contended that it
was not a valid service as the word 'sengi-
neero was not intended to include engine
drivers. but only to designate those engaged
in the science of engineering, in planning
and constructing bridges, railroads and
similar works. It was argued that the
Legislature intended to dir ect the service of
process upon some one who was interested
in the management or operation Of the COM
pany, and whose duty naturally would be
to notify tho company of the service. Judge
Green decides that he must give to the word
"engineer' its usual and commonplace
meaning. which is that Of an engine driver,
or one who manages an engine.
The New Jersey LGw Journal criticises
this opinion. saying:GsIt is hard to explain
why the Legislature should have picked out
the man in charge of an engine in q factory,
and still less a man who holds the throttle of
a locomotive, as the MAI upon whom q sum
mons should be served. II any of the train
men Is to DO served, it should be the conduc-
tor, who is, in soms sense, the representa-
tive Of the company upon the train. The
engineer has not even q coal pocket to put
the summons in, and is not in the habit of
delivering papers to his superior officers"
The LaU Journal uhinks that the i'm
propriety of such a service is not overcome
BY the argument that in this country the
word engineer is commonly used to desig-
nate a person who is In charge OF an engine.

reform and might easily be brought
up to date.
The State Assembly is to elect, this
week, a Speaker to succeed Mr.. Gar
ret Hobart Holt of the Passaic water
shed. Naturally, Leader McEwan of
the Republican party should have the
honor; but Mi. McEwan dared to be
on the peoples side during the ses-
sion, so he is to be turned down. Mr..
Charles Bigelow Storrs of Essex, one
of the most scoundrelly corporation
tools who ever sat in the House, is to
be made Speaker, IN direct hostility
to the peoples interests and in con-
tempt Of their intelligence.
This is an outrage on MFR. McEwan
and an outrage on the State which
the people should severely rebuke.

with AN Acute Attack Of Lumbo Alb

Rev. Isaac Jewell, pastor Of Epworth
M. f. Church, was not in his pulpit yes.

perience during the previous day that
threatened to prevent him from ever ap.

Mr. Jewell was returning from Phfla-
delphia on Saturday on an afternoon
train and as he approached Chester. he
began 10 feel weak aud miserable. When
Chester was reached he was taken
violently III. IL was with difficulty that
he was taken to his home, the Fpworth

When DR.. Richardson reached the

attack Of Jumbo abdominal neuralgia.
Mr.. Jewell had never suffered from this

DR. Richardson said this afternoon that

come upon person at any time but that
the malady never became chronic, and
that Mr. Jewell may never have anything
like Il again.
