The Westchester Racing Association
was to open up it's first meeting at Nor
ris Park tomorrow and to decide the
legality of the Percy-Gray Racing law.
Colonel S. B. Lawrence, President of the
Westchester Racing Association, was ar

with advertising lottery and maintain-
ing a public nuisance, and was taken
before Magistrate Cornell, who paroled
him in the custody of his counsel. A
writ of habeas corpus was granted by
Supreme Court Judge Ingraham, who
made the writ returnable this morning.
After hearing arguments this morning
Judge Ingraham said that the only thing
he had to decide in this application was
whether there was any law making the
proposed racing crime. and to decide
whether the defendant was about to vio-
late the law.

An Electric One Invented That
Works by Button.
Henry London has invented and per-
fected an electrical bicycle lantern. Lon
don is one of the first men who ventured
to ride a wheel in San Francisco at a
time when bicycles were not allowed in
Golden Gate Park. Years of riding have
not diminished his ardor for the healthy
exercise. He is an amateur electrician as
well, and to light the path of his wheel
he has constructed and attached to the
handle-bar the most perfect little Ian
tern imaginable. 1t Is about as large as
one-half of an ordinary sized peach.
The reflector measures two and half
about the size of a hazel nut. The lan-
tern looks precisely like those on toy car
riages.
The battery is contained in leather
fastened to the cross-bar in the same
manner as the latter one. ut consists of
a tnree-cell storage battery
The incandescent lamp is rated at two
candle power. 1t has attracted tire ~
tention of wheelmen, pedestrians and peo-
pie in carriages since it made its appear
ance in the park, and men and women
stop to inquire what produces so brill
liant light from such a small apparatus.
All sorts of pet names have been, coined
for the little lantern. such as flash lamp,
search light, calcium and lime light.
London calls it the electric bicycle LAM
tern.
The light is regulated, extinguished or
relighted instantly by the pressure of
button, conveniently fastened. on the
handle-bar, without moving the hand,

PHILOSOPHY IN WEDLooK.
Let the Women Attend to Domestic
Affairs and Not Bother Him.


There need be few if any "ructions"
in a house, the mistress of which has
common sense, an even temper and a
certain amount of foresight. However,
she should be capable of managing small
details for herself and should not un-
duly bother her husband about things
which she should carry through alone,
because to do that is one of the reasons
why she exists at all. / am not one bit
astonished at the ridiculous manner in
which some people talk about marriage
and the fearful thralldom and misery
thereof when I have seen the idiotic
way in which some women behave and
little detail of their lives to. their unfor-
tunate. spouses to legislate for, from the
evil doings of the cook and washer wo,
man to the real or supposed social
Sights they have met with, says the
"Gentleman," A man detests these puer-
lie matters, and she is. wise who can man
age her own domestic details and who
neeer sees any sights. 1t is only a very
small person who can be snubbed. and to
acknowledge a snubbing acknowledges
ones own SmallneSS In a Slngularly frank
and open manner.
But if woman feverishly dwells on
these things it maddens man alto
men who is not emancipated, and who
doesn't think about marriage in the i'm
beetle way all too many people fancy
they do nowadays. to arrange her home
and her life so as to have as little fric-
tion as possible, and to avoid all the
small carelessnesses and forgetfulnesses
from which so many silly little disagree
ables all too often spring, resulting
sooner or later in the grave quarrels
which may undermine household and
bring the whole ESTATE Of matrimony'
into undeserved contempt. Men are i'm
patient creatures, and must be recognize
ed as such, and they are also very mucn
more Tesentful of small discomforts than
women are.-Philadelphia Press

CHEERING REPORTS FROM THE COUNTIES

Mr.. Edward F. C. Young appeared al
the Democratic State Headquarters this
afternoon and took his place at the head
of the State Committee: He found that
during his enforced absence by sickness,
the members of the Executive Committee
under the leadership of ex-senator Rufus
Blodgett, had been hard at work and
mad accomplished much. They have
made arrangements for meetings in all
parts of the State and have secured
long list of eloquent and forcible speak
ers to address them.
Among the visitors this morning was
Lawyer Naar of Trenton. brother of
Joseph Naar, editor of the TRUE Ameri-
can" He came up to secure speakers for
a rousing mass meeting to be held in the
Taylor Opera House. the largest theatre
in the State. tomorrow evening. Mr..
Naar said that the Democratic cause in
Mercer was by no means SO hopeless as
the Republicans were trying to make
people believe. The nomination of ex-
Sheriff Bergen for Senator and the ex-
cel,ent men named for the Assembly
was worth many votes to the Chapcellor.
prominent Republican told him that
Mr.. Bergen's nomination would take
1000 votes from Mr.. Skirm. the Republi-
can nominee.
The Mercer Democrats are hard at
work and propose to make a stiff fight.
Besides the large mass meeting in Tren-
ton tomorrow a big German meeting viii
be held there next week, and other meet
ings throughout the county are to be
held. There are no dissensfons in the
party and every Mercer Democrat will
cast his ballot for Chancellor McGill
Each of the Assembly nominees is a
power in his own locality and has on
occasions before demonstrated his ability
to defeat his Republican opponent.
Counsellor Dunn of Paterson was an
other caller at headquarters today. He
corroborated the letter from his city
which was published in ''The Jersey City
News one day last week concerning
the situation in Passaic, and said that
Griggs' home county would make a good
showing for the Democratic ticket. He
said that Democrats were seawake
and making arrangements. to present the
issues of the campaign to every voter
in the county.
Encouraging reports from all parts of
the State continue to come in, and the
committee feels more assured than ever
that the next Governor of New Jersey
will be Alexander T. McGill.
