ssBRUDDER' JOHNSON GOES A FISHING.
 Matters as rule are an uneasy set of mortals through the dull seasons of the trade. Hunting and fishing in the sea- son answers very we'll for pastime for those who enjoy the sport. Sometimes there is serious side and sometimes a funny side to. these sports. A fellow workman, Reuben Johnson, who enjoys day among the finny tribe, or with gun and dog bags bird or rabbit and then 8 fox, or a string of fish. In fact he is one of those persons born to luck . Not long since MT Johnson and son vis- ited lonely pond in a neighboring town for days favorite sport The usual custom of cutting holes sthrough the ice, the adjusting of the lines and tipups were gone through with in order. Next they must have roaring fire to warm up cold fingers, which was built and often replenished with wood that must be brought in armfuls for the purpose, Johnson stepped on thin place of ice and broke through. It was a serious job to fish himself out and more seri- ous one after he got out to know what to do. It was seven miles from home and one mile from farm house, and the weather nearly down to zero, which would freeze a man going mile. The next best thing he could do was to strip down and wiring out his wet garments and dry them one by one near good hot fire. In time the clothes were dry and himself comfortably dressed with out any serious effect from his cold win ter's bath. The funny side of the event was his trousers in drying by hot fire shrunk at both ends and the next was he never caught fish. As the saying goes, he came back into town with his tail feathers dropping, wiser if not a better man.

The County Board of Health met yester-

against the unhealthy condition of the old
building of the Ramrapo Athletic Club, at
present used as a primary annex to Public
School No. 3, of Bayonne. 1t is claimed that
drafts circulate through the building, and
that the pupils catch cold from them. One
of the teachers is said to have contracted
pneumonia and died. The matter was re-
ferred to DR.. Hendricks to investigate. The
Board also passed the payrolls for the at
tendants in the Hospital for Contagious Dis
eases at Snake Hill. The cases of Dr..
Charles Burke, of Harrison, and DR.. Mala-

A Faulty INDICTMENT.

Anthony Kennedy, who was arrested sew
eral weeks ago for obtaining money under
false pretenses, by delivering flake" pack
ages to the United States Express Co., and
collecting express charges on them, was
tried in the Court of General Sessions yes
terday afternoon. Kennedy, who was at one
time employed by the company, filled a
number of car boxes with empty soda water
bottles, pieces of stone. ETC., wrapped them
IN nicely and addressed them to different
persons in st. Louis, Chicago, and other
cities. He would then deliver them to the
United States Express Co, as coming from
a local express, and collect 10 % cents
on each one.
LAWYER Alex. Simpson, who defended
Kennedy, secured the acquittal of his client
on technical grounds, arguing that the in
dictment was defective. He was indicted
for larceny, but, as the express company lost
nothing, the indictment could not be proven.

The polls are open until Z o'clock, and If
you are registered, you. are entitled to
deposit your vote down to the last mo-
ment.
1t is not an unimportant matter The
indications are that this is an ex-
ceedingly close contest today, and every
vote helps. It is possible that a mere
handful of stay at homes in this county
upon this State for three years, if not
longer. They may send out a message
of bad tidings to the National Democracy
that New Jersey cannot be counted upon
in 1896.
It is a sacred duty to vote today. There
never was a time when it was more en-
phatically a duty. There can be no divis-
ion of conscienees. The man invites sup
port as well as the party. The purest man
may vote for. Chancellor McGill with clean
hands, and may proclaim with pride
that he has lone so. tt Senatorial and
Assembly candidates are also worthy of
support.
Do not stay at home because you hear
that Hudson is a sure thing. 1t is; but
the enemy is proclaiming its enormous
advantage in South Jersey. This may OF
may not be true. Blu will any Democrat
AXE chances on it? If the Chancellor
should be defeated by just a few vores,
how will the consciences Of those who
failed to go to the polls reproach them?
Hudson's majority for McGili may AVE
to offset a deadly Griggs majority in
Camden. in Passaic. in Cumberland and
elsewhere. Then let every Democrat give
his help.

OUR ClPY'S ARTISTS
Interesting Exhibition in the
Hasbrouek Studios List Of
Exhibitors.

The walls of the upper studios in Has
brouck Institute are hung his week with
the sketches of Jersey City artists. Mrs.
Priestman, who is superintendent of the
Art Department of Hasbrouck Institute,
has wished to make Jersey City people
familiar with. the work of Jersey City
artists, and in order to accomplish this
has made a collection of their sketches,
which will be on exhibition during this
week. The artists exhibiting sketches
are Mr.. b. w. Priestman, Mr.. August
Will, Miss Cornelia Post, Mrs. Henry
Harrison, Miss Alice Scudder, Miss Han
nah billiard and Miss Louise Darling.
LOVELY AUTUMN SKETCHES.
The sketches which Mr.. Priestman ex-
hibits are for the most part autumn
sketches. He divides his work between
studies of still life and landscapes. A
successful study in still life is one of
a watermelon, surrounded with other
fruit. In the picture the fruit is made
subservient to the chief feature, the
watermelon. Among Mr.. Priestman's
autumnal sketches are a scene in Cen
trail Park, an haze, a scene in
West Farms, the largest tree in Staten
Island, an oak tree, a woods in early
morning, and a Staten Island landscape
showing the luminosity of the sky. Mr..
Priestman is very successful in his treat
ment of sunlight.

A Guessing Match.

An unaccountable atmosphere of des-
pond pervaded some Democratic quarters
yesterday. There was no reason for it.
1t is true that Republicans felt CIR pre-
tended to feel much confidence. They
were very free with their offers to bet,
suggesting the enormous size OF the
Doodle that must have been put into this
campaign.
But when you get them talking, you
find their hopes are built upon impossi-
bilities. There was General Sewell, for
instance, in Saturdays .sState Gazette"
~nnounce that Griggs would carry the
First Congressional District by 1000 and
the Second by 1000 majority. Nobody
knows better than the General, in his
calmer moments, that these figures are
preposterous. The First District con-
.sists of Camden, Cape May, Cumberland,
Gloucester and Salem Counties. These
are capable of affording as an extreme
possibility, the following Republican ma
professionalism, 1900; Cape May, $50,
Cumberland, 1000; Gloucester. 500. and
Salem, SO; total, AGO. The Second Dis
tr.ct as an extreme possibility might give
the fo.low:ag.-Atlantic, $50; Burlington,
1000; Mercer. 1,eco. and Ocean, 700; total,

tween The two. The limit of possibility
is 7.u5e. Probably the fact will be about
