when these ennobling sentiments will be
less often expressed or in the least lose

ton that it lead the reading public to
expect good deal of Mr.. Chambers in
the future. Never. perhaps, have the
terrible days of the Commune been more
Vividly pictured than in that story. In
fact. Mr.. Chambers has been looked to
by several of our critics as writer who
might redeem the younger generation of
Americans from the charge that they
have produced no novelists of the first
rank.
This newest story centers about the
life of an American. Stephen Steen OF
New York. who had made a home in
the Caspian mountains, upon an estate
he had rented from the Servian govern
ment; and opens with the coming and
subsequent entertainment of the king
of BoZnovia and his duke attendants.
This king and his companion dukes,
thus suddenly introduced upon the
scene, gave name to the novel. The book
abounds In adventures, some of the very
gravest import. but many of them are
what the newspapers might class as
in the lighter vein. In other words, the
things that come to pass are less fierce
in phase than what one meets with in
1.-THE Red Republic but on the whole
this venture of our author is quite as
entertaining as the former-pleasante
if less thrilling recitals. The Princess
Sylvia early becomes a very important
figure in the story and earns the name OF
Witch" for her marvellous fertility of
invention. OF course it is a natural end
ing that Steen should marry her. and
they live very happily in their own home
in the Towering woodland where the
birds sang for them, where the orange
and the white orchids spread a carpet
for them, and even the insects chirped
sweet evening hymns in honor of Witch
Sylvia the lovliest woman in the
world"

Fortunate Accidents.

A large number of the worlds
greatest inventions have been the re-
suit of some accidental union of
forces, the nature of which the person
who started them neither understood
nor suspected The working Of dyna-
mos at long distances apart, when
properly connected, was discovered
by accident A scientific journal
says; "Soon after the opening OF the
Vienna Exposition in 1873, careless
workman picked up the ends of
couple of wires which he found trail
ing along the ground. He fastened
them in the terminals Of q
dynamo, to which he thought
they belonged while they were really
attached to another dynamo that was
running in another part of the
grounds. The dynamo to which he
fastened the wires was not running,
but as soon as the wires were placed
in its terminals it revolved as if a
steam-engine was driving it. The
workman was amazed The engineers
and electricians were astOnished by
the discovery that dynamo electric
machine turned by steam power
would turn another similar machine a
long distance away, if properly con-
neeted to it by electric wires. Thus
originated one of the most revolution
airy applications of electricity.
The fact that power can be trans
mittod for miles by electric wires ii

NJ. Felix Faure, the president of

may go to prison eventually, however.
These indications are drawn from a

ground that the machine is too vivid

The Board of FreehOIders.

The County Board Of Freeholders met
at the Insane Asylum on Monday and
transacted some important business.
1t was voted to advertise for bids for
the construction of the new County
road by way of Absecon, and to have it
completed by May 1. 1897.
At the afternoon session the Board
listened to arguments in favor of re-
moving the County Seat from Mays
Landing to Pleasantville. Hon. VIM.
l. Newell and John F. Hall, editor of the
Atlantic Daily Union, made the speeches
and Mr.. Hall very forcibly presented the
reasons why the change should be made.
Mr.. Newell took the wind. out of the
balloon story that the buildings would
cost q quarter of q million dollars, by
offering to furnish bonds to erect
suitable buildings large enough for all
probable needs for one hundred thousand
dollars.
Petitions containing hundreds of
names from Atlantic City and other
places were handed to the Board and
and evidently had considerable in
fluence.
The bids for the proposed Jail extern
sion were then opened, and after point
ing out some irregularities in the specl-
fications. Mr.. Irving moved that all
the bids be rejected, and new ones
readvertised for, the same to be con-
sidered at the next meeting of the Board
in July. Quite number Of prominent
cIIzens were present at the meeting.

MILMAY.

Joseph Platt, of 5242 Loomis street,
Chicago, came here last Thursday to
look after his two 10-acre farms which
he bought some time ago. Mr.. Platt
expects to put up a house immediately
and be domiciled in the colony within
month. He has several sons and a
mother who will be with him in his new
home. Mr.. Platt was very much pleased
with the appearance of things and we
think he will make quite substantial
addition to the place.
1t is queer how every resident here
claims to have the best drinking water
in the place; as matter of fact it is all
fine, but the deeper you get the better
water you are likely to have. If you
only go about Is feet deep you strike
what is called surface water. This is
fairly good water much better water
than the average city uses, but if you
dig down 25 feet you bore through the
stratum of gravel which underlies the
clay, and you get as good water then
as you can find in the world.

The Mayor was authorized to appoint
a special officer, without pay, to attend
the games at the bell grounds and en-
force good order.
Voted that Winfield Adams berequired
