THE CONFEDERATE SPY.
81. Paul's Dramatic Association, of Green
Ridge. Presented 1t.

Before large audience in the paro-
chial hall of St. Paul's parish, Green
Ridge, the Confederate Spy" was pre-
sented last night by st. Pauls Dra-
matte association. For an amateur
performance 1t exceeded expectations
and the warmest applause was evoked
repeatedly.
There was one point that commanded
special observation: 1t was the thor
ough and well versed style in which
each one spoke his or her lines. This
was due to careful rehearsing.
The plot of the Confederate Spy" is
familiar. ]. B. INLAND, as General
Meade, was very good. His brother,
P. DAILY INLAND, as the Federal scout,
was the leading one In the play. His
part was rendered with the ease and
artistic style nf professional iiasii. --
Miss Kathryn Fitzpatrick acted the
part of Mabel Meredith Miss Mana
Oliver, that of Lottie Evans, her cousin,
and Miss May Early that of Mrs.
Moses Mulvey.. The three young ladies
were vivacious and sprightly and their
cleverness did much toward the sue
cess of the play. The other members
of the cast were J. w. Kelley, NJ. J..

tertained by Mayor Bailey. City Treas
urer Boland and City Controller Robin
son. a tempting lunch was provided.
as well as good things to wash 1t down
with.
Then followed a season of speech
making. during which nearly all OF the
members of the committee made ad-
dresses. Mayor Bailey and the other
city officials Were also heard from The
matter of appointments was not
touched unon by the Mayor, nor was
1t taken up by the committee.
A resolution was adopted to refer the
matter of making a new code of rules
for the government of the party in
the city to a committee of seven to be
appointed by Chairman George 5.
Horn. This committee will report to
the executive, which will then II it
deems proper call special convention

system OF conducting primary elections
and to make changes in the rules as
they exist now.
Mayor Bailey announced after his re-
turn from New York that he would
have some appointments to submit to
the select council next Thursday night
The members of that body are appar-
emily not very curious about them, for
they adjourned last night for two
weeks. That delays the agony one
week longer
Wade Finn is endeavoring to get
enough OF select councllmen to pledge
themselves to vote for the confirma-
tiOn forthwith of Frank Robling as
chief OF police to insure against council
rejecting him in the event of Mayor
Bailey naming him for the office.

refers to-
When the committee wanted TO dis
approve of the appointment, you raised
the point that there was no quorum
present and We could not act"
Il had no such purposes In mind as
you insinuate when l did that"
The vote was taken and the appoint
ment confirmed. Then MIR. Manley'
arose and stated to council that Mr..
Martin was In every way competent to
be an inspector, having served as
foreman for Muldoon & Bowie for
number OF years.
Well why the deuce didn't you say
so in the beginning?" said Mr.. Chitten-
den.
Because l wouldn't satisfy you that
much" was Mr.. Manleys provoking
answer.

Gf Petersburg. At the latter place the
party was dined.
The only thing which was the cause
OF unfavOrable criticism was the fact
that two companies. the Libertys and
Niagaras. occupy the same building.
A movement is now on foot to take
both companies out Of the building,
which is altogether unsuited for fire
department purposes. and move one
Of the companies to Park Place and
the other to Main avenue, above the
square.
The terrible condition of the Prcvi-

lar OF the same building was called to
the attention of Mayor Bailey and the

a dispatch received in this city yes
terday states that Murderer Crezenzo
Merolo has been granted further lease
cf life. Governor Hastings yesterday
extended the date of execution from
May 26 to Wednesday, July /. He has
sixty-eight days 20 live yet. unless he
should be granted further respite lat
er or If the board Of pardons does not
commute his sentence.
The probable reason the respite was
granted is because the hanging would
conflict with the opening of the state

city next month. Merolo will not be
notified until Sheriff Clemc.is receives
the official document from Harrisburg.

In fact, it is a hardship for feeder,
to be put to the expense Of these finish.
Ing touches. for 1t costs q great deal and
1t seems to us that several dollars 6

on the market. their uniformity Of size
and condition, cuts great figure. Ami.
mails of fine quality showing plainly
the points of the great breeds sell eas.

yards people call old-fashioned cattle
short of body and with upright horns
are habitually murdered on the mar.
ket even when very fat. These old
fashioned cattle. the common natives
do not dress we'll, and certainly are
not attractive to look at; and 1t IS in
this that the westerns have an ad.
vantage. for they kill exceedingly well
and yield greater proportion Of eat

We have never been able to enume-
rate all the qualities that are necessary
to make a successful feeder At first
sufficient food for long time enough
to make them fat should be simple
enough, but as a matter of fact more
than this IL required. and few men
make a steady and uniform success of
it, says Colman's Rural World. There
are. however, men who almost always
make money at it. The reason is that
few men are good judges of cattle,
which is the main point. During these
last few years it has been necessary
to make cattle very thoroughly ma
tured and finished TO get anything like
q respectable price.
