SHORTER NOVELS.
The Difference Between Mile De
'Scudery and Mrs. CraigiI.

1t would be interesting to know how far
the new plan of issuing novels at first in
single volumes has answered. If we take
certain well bruited md, exceptional
books, the sales of which have been as
periodically and punctually noticed as
the railway traffic returns, it has ans
wered very well indeed. But if we make
independent inquiry of readers and crit
les, we shall probably find not merely a
current of grumbling (there is always
that at any change) but a rather SUBJ
stantial agreement on one point, says the
London World" And this is that the
one-volume novel, issued as such, must
not be so long as the longest of the old
three-deckers. Critics complain that it is
too fatiguing, and readers that it is too
solid.
That there is some sense in this may
be seen from the fact, not often noticed,
that as novels nave gradually lessened
the numbers of their volumes, novelists
have been obliged to make them shorter
in reality, and not to avail themselves of
typographical and other articles to keep
up the bulk of matter while reducing the

W GANG BROKEN UP.

90 f6 49,
Another GROWER gang in Hoboken was
broken up last night by Officers Leahy and
Garrick, of Headquarters.
For some time past complaints hav g beer
received at Police Headquarters that a gang
of young hoodlums congregated in the vicin-
ity of Newark and Clinton streets, and kept
the neighborhood awake nights with their
disgfaceful songs and shoutings. When the
officers appeared among them last night the
boys were quarreling as to who was to have
first "whack'' at a fresh GROWER which had
just been brought In.
AT sight of the bluecoats the beer was
dropped and the gang put to their heels.
All were not fortunate enough, however, to
escape. as each officer grabbed a man in each
of their hands.
The quartette arrested said they were
John Doody. twenty-five years old: Patrick
Finnerty, twenty-four years old; Robert
McAleevy. twenty-three years old, and
Thomas Donnelly, twenty-one years old.
All reside in the neighborhood. They were
all very respectfully attired and looked like
intelligent young men. Each had an excuse
to give for being in the place, and said they
did not belong to the gang. 1t wa of no
avail, however, as the Recorder inc them
and warned them not to loiter even around
the corners.

TERRoRIzsD BY TAAMPs.


STOCKTON, Aug. is. 1ss5.-The police
of this place are having considerable
trouble with tramps. Who are robbing
farmers of their truck and disturbing
the residents.
Early yesterday morning two men and
two women got into a dispute on the
street. when one of the men cut the
other with a pocket knife. Policeman
Brown and Constable Johnson, after a
desperate struggle, overpowered the man
who had the knife and the two women
who went to his aid. After the injured
man had his wounds dressed he and
the others were taken to the lookup.
There have been a number of arrests
made by the authorities, but the tramps
have become 50 bold that they defy
the officers. Women n children are
insulted on the streets when they refuse
to give the beggars money or food. They
congregate in large numbers and camp
in the woods over night and steal fowls
and truck from the farmers. On the
least provocation they draw knives and
threaten to kill anyon that interferes

Boulevard Botch work.

New is the time to see what our new
boulevard amounts to. The fine day
weather of the last three days has plac-
ed all the roads in the State at their
best. and magnificent roads some of them
are.
The Boulevard IS not magnificent. The
Bayonne section is fair. the Ber-
gen section is poor and so far as
can be judged, the portion north of New
ark avenue is Gisgraceful. The so called
telford pavement does not begin to COM
pare with the plain, ordinary, cheap ma
cadam Of fifty roads we could namo In
Bergen. Essex and Union counties.
The Freeholders should not pay an
ptfter cent for this work until it is i'm
proved throughout almost its entire
length.

A TERRIER AND A RAT.
The Rodent Was Made of Rubber

A rat, a terrier and a small boy causes
f hoaf Ma OF people to co~ngregate IN

ural looking rubber affair, was connected
with a long, thin pipe and a bulb. Every
time the boy squeezed the bulb the rat
would leap forward in a most Efe-like
manner, and the ladies on the street
would shrek with terror and gather UP
which surged down on the boy and the
rat from every direction.
The fun was kept up for an hour or
Suddenly, however. a s~leek-looking rat
terrier sprung through the crowd and
bounced. The boy gave the bulb Ros a ia ne
and the rat leaped about six feet. Again
the dog made a sprdi1g. This time he
caught the rat i'm his teeth, and the pres
like squeak, which delighted the dog
and the audience alike.
By this time the street was. packed.
Time after time the dog would shake
the rat and put 1t down, only to see it
leap again, to the wild delight of the
crowd. Fzor the first half hour 1t was
hut after awhile things began to grow
monotonous. The dog lay down for a
rest. and the, rat jumped over him. This
was too much for canine flesh and blood
to stand. He leaped UP again, and now
the contest kept up until the dog fell

Logical Conclusions of Pre-Raphae-
litfsm-Suggestion ofthe Japanese.


Aubrey Beardsley is the typical degen-
crate of pictorial art, the Maeterlinck Of
the brush. He is a boy of twenty, who
budded as a draughtsman for the Lon
don papers. and Powered as the artist of
the Yellow Book, that amazing product Of
literary and artistic eceentrieity which
divides attention of morbid seekers after
some new thing with the modern women
and the revival of classical immortality.
Oscar Wilde. and his most celebrated
pictures were made for that martyrs
'fSalome." the new 'fMorte d'Arthur,"
and Wagner's STORY of Venus"
Judging from some reproductions and
limitations. these pictures are the erazi-
est ca~ricatnres to the ane eye. but the
disciples of the Beardsley school worship
them as the new art. They are absolute
~ without drawing, as it is understood
out of Bedlam, and their color scheme
reminds a Philistine critic of an Eng
lish sunset struck by lightning" There
is a suggestion of japanese art in their
absolute ignoring OF perspective, and
their crude masses Of solid color, OF Of

The natural eye sees nothing in the
drawings but an inkstand upset on a

riot of smashed color tubes. The inter-
esting thing about this new school Of
art is it's obvious development out of
the lesser diyagationS of a school which
has called itself genuine without serious
contradiction.
Aubrey Beardsley has don no more
than carry the theories of the pre-Ra-
phaelites to their logical conclusion. He
is the artistic hid of Rossetti, grown
to full stature. as Maeterlinck is the ma
tured progeny of ~Swinburne, and can
claim remote cousinship even with so
real an artist as Holman Hunt. If an.
artist may Substitute his Individual no.

may add divers inches to a woman's
neck or arm because he likes to see it
that way. he may surmount crazy-quilt
blotches of color with Assyrian charac-
ters. and call one a figure and the other
a face.

This lunacy is likely to leave a perma-

Protest Against Delay in Cleaning a
Sewer.

The Third District Citizens Improve
ment Association will hold a meeting at
Haas Hall, corner Second and Coles
streets, tomorr<v evening, at $50 P. NJ,
to protest against the delay relative to
the cleaning OF the Second street sewer.
The residents of this street have suf-
fered for the past three months owing
to flooded cellars and foul gases which
are directly caused by the condition of
the ever. In some places the mud
has accumulated to the depth of three
feet; this was determined by actual mea-
surement. The Board of Finance assur-
ed a committee from the above ~associa.
ton that an appropriation would De
made which would be sufficient to thor
oughly clean this sewer and give the
relief sought; but as yet these citizens
declare nothing has been lone in the
matter, and the association is deter
mined to compel the Street and Water
Board to fulfil its promises that the
work will be lone. All taxpayers and
citizens who are interested in the work
are invited to attend the meeting.

The waters summer Development

=
Yesterday. for the first time this sea-
son. the people hailed the old. old smell
of sewer gas as the Passaic fluid filed
their w~ashbasins and bath tubs. The
very rainy summer and the compare
lively low temperature kept the water
in fair order, so far as taste and smell
were concerned. down to the beginning
of last week. But the sweltering heat
of the last few lays has done its work.
The water has ter,nented in the river.
All along the bank of the stream at
Relleville the foul gases pollute the air.
The odor on Saturday night at the Belle
VILE bridge was almost unbearable.
The river is still high. The country
has been kept so thoroughly soaked this
summer that 1t will probably take two
weeks drought to lower the lakes, dry
IN the water courses in the hills and
reduce the surface drainage. For the
present. the color of the water is not
bad. The great volume still flowing d.
1utes the filth; but if we W. a couple
of weeks of dry. high dew point days
like today. the water at the end of that
time will display its f~oulness to the eye,
as it al~eady does to the other senses.
We gather from an article in our news
colur1ss. today. that tn award of the
water contract is going to be tied up in
definitely by a miner difcute as to the
manner of selecting an expert.

FIGHTING FIRE ALL DAY.
Special to the Jcrseu 9th Nces.

POMONA, N. j., Aug. 10, 1s95.-The for
est fires. which have been burning intermit-
tently in this vicinity since Tuesday night,
got a fresh start Saturday and gave the
people of Absecom a thorough fright. Many
were at church when, about II o'clock,
alarm was given that the fire had increased
in volume and was approaching the town
from the south.
The citizens were soon out in full force,
and every man, woman and child who was
able took a hand in fighting the flames.
Eight residences were in great danger at
various times. but the workers managed
finally to throw up a sane embankment 5
feet high and nearly 5 miles long, which
checked the progress of the flames.
The fire Is still burning f~iercely in the di-
rection of Egg Harbor City, but no damage
has as yet been reported from there.
