"THE TRILBY COP"
Young Loafrz Found Lynch Could
Ruu Tf He weighed $40 Pounds

Patrolman William Lynch of the Oak
land avenue station house weights 240
pounds. He was one of the mem for
whom DR.. Nevin's avoirdupois cure was
designed. It has not yet been a success
in his case.
Thu officers figure does not impress
the small boy, in just the right way. 1t
rather tends to excite unseemly mirth,
and as Lynch preambulates his post in
the neighborhood of Jefferson and Oak
land avenues, a gang who make night
hideous there, were wont to pursue him
with ribald shouts. They nicknamed him
Trilby Cop" and from safe posi-
tons behind telegraph poles and fences,
they assaulted his ears and his sensi-
bnities until his life became4a burden.
Yesterday Lynch caught them in the
open. They were holding down the street
corner, and making remarks about girls
and women who passed. Lynch ordered
them to move on. They did so sulklly
until they get beyond sprinting distance.
They they started in to guy the police
man.
Lynch got mad, and as big as he is
started on a run after them. After a
chase of a block or SO he caught two Of
the Oldest ones. VIM. Mcclellan, sixteen
years old, of No. 107 Jefferson avenue,
and Joseph Bucken, fifteen years old,
of No. 81 Beacon avenue.
He took the boys to the station mouse
and they were locked up until late in the
evening, when they We're bailed out by
Justice of the Peace Macs.
Police Justice Douglass this morning
discharged them with a reprimand.

q MORRIN SHOOTING.
Albert j.. Mahay Placed ON Trial for
ii Today.


Albert J. Mahan, who, on October %,
made a target Of Thomas f.. Morrin, in
Brinkerhoff street, and tried to fill him
full of bullets, was called for trial in
the General Sessions Court this after
noon. He has been in Jail since the shoot
ing. Some of hiss friends were willing
to give bail for him. but they were dis
suaded for doing it, as it was rumored
that Mahan had mad up a list of sew
eral other human targets he intended to
practice on as soon as an opportunity
presented itself.
1t was between Z and 7:90 O'Clock. in
the evening when the shooting took place.
Mahan had been seen lurking in Brink
erhoff street, near Morrin'S house. Nor
rim had gon to Hunts hardware store
to leave an order for Some fixtures he
wanted for a row of new houses he was
building in Brinkerhoff street. On his
way home Mahan met him and emptied
Then he ran away. Morrin. although
seriously wounded, pursued the fugitive
and had almost oyertaken him when
a policeman intercepted Mahan, and took
him to the Fourth precinct police sta
ton.
The murderous assault upon Morrin
caused a great sensation among the
friends of the two men. They are both
employed in Lorillard's tobacco factory,
and were believed to be very close friends.
The motive for the shooting has remain
ed a mystery, and will continue to be a
profound secret unless it is developed at

After a jury had been selected it was
discovered that Morrin was absent, and
Prosecutor Winfield asked Captain Nc
Kaig to telephone to Lorillards factory
for him. He had not arrived when the
Court took a recess.

CALLED OUT THE FIREMEN.
Funny Result of a Venezuela Dispute

on Mallory
In the heighth of an argument on
Venezuelan affairs on Saturday night,
James Green of No. 7 Mallory avenue
and William Bentley, who tends bar in
the saloon across the way at No. ",
called out three fire engines md a truck.
From general badinage the dispute, as
it waxed warmer, merged into personal
remarks against the two main political
parties. Through back-handed compli-
ments to violent attacks upon each others
character, the progress was rapid and
violent. Suddenly Bentley came around
the end of the bar and both men en-
gagged in a rough and tumble bout.
No one interfered, although two or
three drinkers, besides the owner of the
place, were present. Scraps are frequent
on Mallory avenue and arouse only pass
ing interest. A clinch and ar attempted
grapevine twist by Green sent Bentley
toward the wall. He reached out to
save himself, grasped une bracket which
held a lighted lamp and brought it to
the floor with a crash.
Bochel, the owner, a to box No. 70
and sent in an alarm of fire.
Engines Nos. s, 9 ans 10, and truck No.
A and Patrolmen McGrath and jenkins
responded.
Bentley and Green were. placed under
their respective houses, the burning oil
from the lamp having been quickly ex-
tinguished. The police of the Fourth pre-
cinct think the alarm was sent rather
to stop the fight than from any fear from
the small blaze created by the exploding
lamp. The firemen were a pretty angry
lot when they found their trouble was
for nothing. Some of them were probably
relieved at the. result for ar alarm from
box No. 70 usually means a big blaze.
This is the Hateful box which has rung
for third alarms twice within the past
ten days. Gerhardt's fireworks factory
and the West Bergen Steel Works were

changed much since. The Turks are
still on guard at the cradle and the
grave of Christ, to try and keep the de-
vout Christians from SCATTERING up the
walls with each others blood. The
lamps have been carefully and nearly
equally divided between the Greeks,
Catholics and A~rmenians, as well as the
space around and the time for worship.
What strikes the traveller most forcibly
on seeing Jerusalem for the first time

Valley of Jeboshaphet is a deep ugly

ESSEX FOR SKINNER.
A Caucus of ~Assemblymen En-
dorses Him for Speaker

sition.

NEWARK. Dec. 30. 1S95.-After two
attempts the Essex County Assembly
men-elect held a real caucus on Saturday
night. and when their talk in secret end
ed, Just before midnight, Assemblyman
Alfred f. Skinner had been unanimously
agreed upon as the caucus candidate Of
Essex for the Speakership of the next
New Jersey Assembly.
1t is likely. too. according to reports
from other parts of the State. that Skin
ner will be the next Speaker of the
House. There were only nine of the
eleven Essex Assemblymen present at
Saturday nights caucus in Newark. AS
semblyman Harrison, who is the POST
master OF Livingston, could not leave his
government duties and Assemblyman
Christie. of Newark. bolted the caucus
as soon as he discovered what it was, on
the ground that he was willing to sit in
conference. but not in caucus, and be
afterward bound by its ironbound rules.
He declared that he is first, last and
always for. Skinner for Speaker. n will
stick to the end for Essex county and its
demands. but he .s'iust won't sit in eau
Gus" And he didn't. Then the nine re-
manning Assemblymen talked matters
over for an hour or two and decided on
skinner. They had a long discussion
over the relative merits of CANDIDATES
for minor offices. Assemblyman Chris.
ties candidate for Sergeant-at-Arms OF
the House, Andrew B~reidenbach, was
considered with the others.
Assemblyman Duncan's candidate for
the same place is Daniel Hunt, who was
an Assistant Sergeant-at-Arms. at the
last legislative session. and Assembly
man Benedict's son-in-law. j.. w. Scott,
is in the race.
A-ssemblyman Harrison wants a Cald-
well man named Force made a doorkeep-
er, and A~ssenblman Schober has a
man named Bratseh for a ike position.
and A~ssemblyman George Smith ad-
vances William L. T~ompkins for the
same thing. while Gus Wolfer wants
his twelve year old son made a page.
In order to better Mr.. SINNERS
chances it was decided TO hold Essexs
demand for other offices in abeyance Tor
a while. At midnight an attempt was
made to get Assemblyman Christie 70
go into a new cancus. but he declined
on the ground that while he is in favor
Of Skinner he was not yet prepared to
pledge himself.
Reports from other parts of the State
show that Skinner will start with at
least twenty-one votes.

LoNGFBLLOW's "HIAWATHAn
The Great indian Epic Took tht
World by Surprise.

W,OflG by SufprsSee
The Indian epic of "Hiawatha' took the
world by surprise, writes Hezekiah But
terworth in an article How Longfellow
Wrote His Best-Known Poems in De-
cember Ladies Home Journal" Its
form n it's matter were for a long
time mysteries. How could a Cambridge
literary recluse produce such an epic!
Certain critics claimed that the idea, form
and magic treatment of the poem had
been borrowed from a Scandinavian sage,
and the implication greatly disturbed his
publishers, and must lave caused his
sensitive spirit great pain. 1t partly
eclipsed for a time the new star in the
literary horizon on which all eyes were
fixed. The criticism was disarmed; the
wonder grew; a ffxed star had appeared.
But the mystery of the poem is simply
solved. Longfellow desired to produce an
epic that should be in sympathy with
all that was most beautiful and noble in
the vanishing Indian race. Abraham. LIE
Fort, an O~nondaga ehieftain, had fur
nished Schoolcraft, the historian, much
Indian lore and many mystic traditions,
with certain Indian v~Ocabularies, in
which the musical and unmusical sounds
of many words indicated their meaning.
These traditions and vocabulafies made
the work of the poet easy. One only
needs to read Schoolcraft, to whom the
poet acknowledged his Indebtedness, to
see how this monument to the Indian
race, their only great literary memorial,
was h1lil0ed
