GAVE BRYAN A SONG.
Miss Forfeit Composer a Campaign
DiltY in Honor of the Roy Orator.

As Candidate Bryan was leaving the
Academy of Music yesterday a pretty
young woman carrying a music roll press
ed her way through the crowd Of men who
were en~deavoring to shake hands with the
candidate. and hailed a policeman to stop
Mr.. Bryan. The policeman complied with
her request and Bryan greeted the APP
preaching young lady with a pleasant
smile and extended his hand to her.
She grasped it and placed a tightly
rolled manuscript into it, saying: Mr..
Bryan kindly accept this little token of
respect. 1t is a campaign song written
by myself. entitled Bryan as Our
leader
He put the manuscript in his pocket
and hanked her pleasantly. She turned
away. followed by the long extended
cheers of the crowd.
To a News reporter she gave her
nane as Agnes T. Torbett, of this city.
She said hat she had labored over a
month past to get a chance to give her
song to the candidate, but she was never
able to reach him.
The ambitious young lady was around
the theatre early n related her scheme
to Chief Murphy. He promised his aid,
but she did not seem TO need it. for Bryan
had no sooner stepped from the carriage
before she was at his heels.

OAMDBE'S REFINERY.
The Mystery as to ITS Ownership
Still Continues.
Special to the JERSEY Cstp Neace.

CAMDEN, Sept. 30, 1ss6.-Mystery has
surrounded the fine new refinery of the
United States Sugar Refining Co. ever
since ground was broken for it two or
three years ago, and mystery now sur
rounds the announcement that 1t has
been sold to a party of New Orleans cap
~italists. Started ostensibly as an indie
pendent refinery, quite beyound the con-
troll of the sugar trust. sthe names of the
financial hackers have never been made
public by Adolph Segal, it's promoter, and
it seems equally difficult now to ascer-
tain the names of those new capitalists
from the South. One of them is said to
be a Mr.. Hawley.
The new purchasers. whoever they may
be, have already placed a representative
in the person of /. d. Wheaton in charge
of the refinery. Mr.. Wheaton is a prac-
teal sugar refiner from Brooklyn, where
the trust has large refineries. AS
to his employers he appears to know very
little, other than that they were from
New ORLEANS, and that a Mr.. Hawley
was at their head.
Whether the New Orleans capitalists
are representatives of the sugar trust he
declined to say.

REBELLED AGAINST THE BISHOP
Specfol to the jersey Caty Ns,cs.

PREDICTION, Sept. 30, 18s6.-A split has
occurred in St. Andrews Protestant Epss-
copal Church of this city by the seces-
sion of thirty-ive members. who have
withdrawn from the congregation and
organized a new church in a small school
house on Elmer street.
This action was taken against the pro-
test of the vestry Of St. Andrews. James
bennington, a lay reader of st. Andrews,
oticiates for the new organization against
the instructions of Bishop Scarborough.
st. Andrews is not a strong church and
this secession is q severe blow to its
prosperity. The seceders are not of the
old members Of the church. who still re-
main loyal, but are from the ranks of the
more recent acquisitions to the congre-
CATION. some of whom lave been brought

ACCORDING to the new law lately
made by the legislature of Ohio a
physician must receive authority to
practice from the state board of ex-
aminers and must register at the pro-
bate court in the county in which he
lives. No physician can receive u
certificate unless he is a graduate of
some recognized college of medicine,
or was legal practitioner at the
time this law was made, February 10,
1896. The fee for a certificate issued
upon the verification of diploma or
to legal practitioner as stated in the
bill, shall be five dollars. For the
examination of an applicant, the fee
shall be twenty-five dollars. In the
latter case the fee shall not be return
ed in the event of a failure, but the
applicant may, within year after
such failure, present himself and be
examined again without the payment
of an additional fee. The probate
Judge shall receive for recording
each certificate, fifty cents.

Making Ugly Reflections.

The Republican Columbus Dispatch
not only persists in roasting Mckin-
ley, but it is now pouring hot shot in
to Governor Bushnell and Senator
elect Foraker for the appointment of
w. b. Cherrington as a member of
the board of penitentiary managers.
The editorial kick, which appeared
in Wednesdays issue of that paper,
is a-half column in length, and the
following is the concluding paragraph,
which, it will be observed, contains a
vicious reflection upon McKinley's ad
ministration:
Senator Foraker is said to have
been the moving influence behind
the appointment of Cherrington, and
it is intimated that between them
there are associations of a personal
character which make ties stronger
than those of a purely political nature.
1t is painful to the friends and ad-
mirers of the senator-elect to know
that he has been a party to an ap-
pointment so manifestly unwise as
that of Cherrington. 1t is not like
the senator-elect to do that which is
certain to work injury to his party
and to the people. The people had
looked to him and to Governor Bush
nell, as the leaders of the dominant
faction of the Republican party, to
bring improvement to the public ms
titutions of the state which have been
so woefully mismanaged in the past
four years. If Cherrington's appoint
ment is an Indication of what will be
done in the future, there is little
promise save for evil in the conduct
of the big prison or of the other great
institutions of Ohio.

For complete line of financial
literature call on the Republican par
ty. You can get anything you want.
In Massachusetts you can get solid
literature against the agitation of sill
yer coinage, in Ohio you can get gold,
silver or paper money, just as you
like it. In Texas the supply is of all
varieties, but finally at the wind up,
gold is the basis of all final redemp-
ton for currency. In the silver states
it is 16 to free silver in quantities to
suit the customer, the greater the
quantity the better they will take it.
When the national Republican con-
yention meets there will be a clash.
A big fight is on hand and a split in
the party is bound to follow. Gold
will win in the convention and the
silver men will not set up business
for themselves.

JUST at the present time this coun-
try is exceedingly fortunate in having
in the presidential chair man of the
conservatism, determination and in
flexible integrity of Grover Cleveland.
Were the chief magistrate of the
same erratic, vacillating and inactiye
disposition of the Republican con-
gress, the general affairs of the coun-
try would be plunged into u sad state
of decentralization. The condition
would be worse than that which
characterized the billion-dollar CON
gress and the closing months of the
Harrison administration. 1t is the
presence in the White house of the
level-headed, courageous and firm
executive that acts as a check upon
the ill ldigested, visionary and extrav-
agant schemes of congress.

THE bond question received but lit
tie attention at the election on Mon
day, there being only 337 votes east
for or against the issue of bonds,
which again illustrates the folly OF
voting upon a local question at a
general election. The vote stood ZIG
for the issue of bonds to 12l against.
The question, in order to carry, had
to have 45s votes, or two-thirds of all
the votes east at the election. No
doubt the council will now order a
special election, so that a fair test
NAV be had on the issue of more
bonds to perfect the water and light
plants.

BRO. PALMER of the Signal wastes
something less than column of space
trying to tell his readers that the Re
publicans of Ohio, or Governor Nc
Kinley, does not straddle the money
question. While the Signal is thus
laboring, there are other reliable Re
publican sources which denounce the
Ohio Republican platform and Nc
Kinley as straddle on the money
question, or at most a meaningless
tumble of words. 1t looks very much
as though Bro. Palmer didn't know
whether he is astradle or no.
