YOUNG LAWYERS IN THE CASE.
Joseph Feiszt,s Claim, for Damages
Against Wagon aud Ferry.

Messrs. Stevens and Lewis. of the new
law firm of Besson, Stevens and Lewis,
made their debut in the Circuit Court
today 1t was their first case, and more
than ordinary interest was attached to
the cause, because of the presence or
some ladies of the Stevens and Lewis
families, who took the liveliest interest
in the proceedings.
The suit was that of Joseph Feiszt
against the Hoboken Ferry. Company
and Mendel Samuels for $1,000 damages.
The plaintiff was knocked down by a
wagon at the entrance to the Hoboken
Ferry and his leg was broken. He
linked the ferry company with Samueis,
the owner of the wagon, because of an
alleged negligence in the accident The
young lawyers presented their defence
in a remarkably clear manner worthy OF
older practitioners at the bar. They
cross-examined with the ability OF a
Golf, and many hatterng things were
said of them by older lawyers present
AS for the ladies, one would have real
ly thought life and death depended ON the
Issue so anxious were they that their
young relatives should win their hrst
case and make q, good showing.
An obtuSe witness whose testimony dlu
not happen to be ON the Ferry Com
pany's side was clearly all wrong and
didn't know what he was talking about
while those whose evidence sustained
the cordial appreciation of the ladies.
Altogether it was a pretty sight and
one which enlivened the usually dull
life of the court.

GLAD TO BE WITH JOHN.

The Hobol1en prisoners van, which
looks a twin of the famous Deadwood
Coach, numbered up to the door of the
Hudson County Jail this morning, and
a saucy, pert young lady, without any
hat on her head, stepped out of the
Black Maria.
Keep your hands off," she snapped al
the officer, who attempted to assist her
into the Jail.

"Oh rats! You know. I'm Miss-don't
forget the Miss-Rosa Cardell. See?"
How long have you got?" pursued
Mr.. Johnny.
"only ninety days this time" she
replied with an engaging smile at Mr..
Mersheimer, and then. as If the idea
had just struck her, said
Dear John, I'm glad to be with you
again."
'eThere, take the woman upstairs, .
said Mr.. Mersheimer,f blashing to the
roots of his hair. a5f
The fair Rosa cast a bewitching smile
at the Jail official, and gathering UP

Elizabeth and other delegates from the
Presbyterian Synod, who want an anu
gambling amendment to the Constltu,
ton similar to that recently ADOPTED
in New York. Resolutions commencing
Judge Potts for his excellent work III
organizing the Assembly We're passed,
and the Speaker announced that ne had
appointed Charles Mcbride, Editor OF
the Elizabeth Journal" his private sec
retary. The House adjourned for the
week.
That the Republicans propose to ride
rough-shod over the Democratic minor
ity is plain from a scheme which they
have Matched up. The present rules pro-
vide that six members may call for the
ayes and nays, and resort to other dila-
tory motions which can be utilized to
put the breaks on when a pernicious
measure is being rushed through by the
majority at break-neck pace. The Re-
publicans propose to amend that rule,
and make the number seven. AS there
are only six Democrats in the House,
it will be impossible to check any caucus
measure.
a resolution was passed fixing the sal
airy of John Kerr as postmaster at 5000.
This will enable Mr.. Kerr to be present
at all sessions of the Legislature to ad-
vocate the passage of his pet iniquity,
the bill for the annexation of Harrison
and Kearny to Essex at the expense OF
the State.

TARRED FOR MAKING A GALL.

CHICAGO, Jan. 9, 1S95.-A special from
Evansville, Ind, says:--A young farmer
named r. o. Taigolp, living in Perry
County, has been paying his attentions
to Miss Maggie O'Neil, pretty girl of
sixteen, and the daughter Of well-to-do
farmer. The elder ONeil, being a Catho-
lie, objected to Taigolp, who is a Protest
ant and ordered the latter to stay away.
Tajgolp declined, however, and on Sun
day last called on the girl, arriving at
his home about eleven O'Clock.
About twenty minutes later there was
a knock on the front door, and Taigolp,
thinking it was his hired man, who was
used to coming in at that hour, got up
to let him in. Four masked men walked
in, and, without any undue ceremony,
tied Taigolp's hands and legs, and then
proceeded to tar and feather him. After
they had accomplished their work they
escaped from the house. The hired man
returned about 1890 o'clock, and was
horrified to find his employer In an un-
conscious condition, and quickly released
him. Taigolp is a bachelor in comfort
able circumstances, and is determined to
have the matter investigated. He has
placed the case in the hands of the
Prosecuting Attorney of that district.

patton of hearing the report of the

they were disappointed, as at the direc-
ton of President H. O. Havemeyer,
Secretary Searles announced that copies
of the report would Ne mailed to all of
the stockholders. 1t was reported that
an effort is to be made to prevent the
report from becoming public. There was

whose terms expired that year, served
another year. The hold-over directors
were H. o. Eavemeyer, William Dick
and F. 0. Matthiesen. This year the
terms of T. A Havemeyer and W. B.
Thomas expired, as did also that of John
f. Parsons, who was appointed by the
directors to succeed George c. Aiagoun,
deceased, making in all six directors to

gious diseases in place of DR.. Doty, said
this morning must take great
care of themselves now. They must keep
their feet dry, and avoid as far as possi-
BILE the dampness arising from the
streets. 1t looks as though wave of
the disease is floating over the city. We
don't recognize the epidemic as CON
tagious one; at least one that our bur-
eau could cope with. 1t infects whole
countries at a time, just as it did Russia.
Care to avoid exposure seems to be the
only real way to prevent being attacked
by it."
From twelve o'clock yesterday to ten

his future adhesion to the principles OF

this, and having given the matter most
careful consideration, he decided to fol-
