From Quebec comes the story that Archi
bald Stuart, a young Scotchman OF an
adventurous turn of mind, who was Wis
iting this country for sport, has just
succeeded in doing what no white men
before has done. With no other COM
panions than his Indian guides, he has
just. completed in safety the entire trip
from Lake ST. John to Mistassini, the
great mysterious inland sea in the far
north, going by one route and return
ing by another. He has brought back
with him interesting accounts of legen-
larry lore, and tribal superstitution of
the peculiar aborigines of this far north
ern country, n found. very large areas
of understandable timber and very large
tracts of magnificent agricultural land,
in what was hitherto supposed to be
nothing but a worthless Wilderness.

vile.
The police of the Fifth precinct abated a
disgraceful nuisance in Greenville last night
which has been a continual annoyance to the
residents of that section for some time. At
the foot of Pamrapo avenue there stands an
old vacant house which has not been tenant
ed for years and which has been the resort
OF a gang of tough characters. The place
was located by the police, and at an early
hour this morning Patrolmen Meyer, Dunn
and Miller went to the house. Nothing was
found on the first floor, but as the policemen
assembled the stairway to the next floor they
heard a noise. When they entered the room
from which the noise came, they found two
women and four men. They took all hands
to the station house, where the prisoners
said they were Mary jackson, twenty-four
years, and Rosie Corcoran, twenty-nine
years, both of No. 105 Market street, New
ark; William ODonnell, twenty-five years,
of No. 80 Second street; John Wooden,
thirty seven years, Of No. 80 Pamrapo ave

No. So Pamrapo avenue, and John Gillen,

O'Aeefe DiBlMlSseO.
The Central Council of the Gaelic Ath-
letic Association met last night at the
| headquarters in Military Hall, No. 1893
Bowery, and the charges brought by c.
Breen of the Kickhams against NJ. Hayes
and c. o'Keefe of the Barrys of this
city for fighting and unruly playing
upon the field were heard.
After considerable discussion, it was de-
cided to dismiss the charges with a
warning. The general impression was
that it would be more judicious for the
| advancement of Gaelic sport hereabouts
if the offenders were punished by dis
missaI.
Secretary O'Keefe reported that the
Jersey City Rangers and the Innisfaels
have withdrawn from the council. The
| SarSfieldS of Elizabeth were admitted.
Fifteen clubs now belong to the asso-
| citation.
