HASBROUOK'S CLEVER PUPILS.
Students of h school OF Music Dis.
play Their Ability.

Those who were present last night in Has,
brouck Institute at the musicale by the faculty
and students of the Hasbreuck School Of
Music heard a performance of unusual merit
and Witnessed with their ears the excellent
system adapted in that department Of the
Institute. The first part of the programme
was devoted exclusively to the students, and
it Is difficult to single out any one in par
ticular, for all exhibited great ability and
proper training on the plano. There was one
thing noticeable about the works produced
and that was they were not tower the heads
of the players. The piano professors, Messrs.
Bauer and Baker. had judiciously selected
compositions within the scope of the students
knowledge, and the usual ..dish water style
Of playing at students musicales was con-
spicuously absent last night and the work was
scholarly, in a musical sense, artistic and
very refreshing. These young ladies played
piano solos:-Misses Ethel De Whit, Mary A.
Brown, Emma Scales, Lulu B. McGown, Edith
Hunt, Mary L. Woolsey and Edith Hunt.
Then there were violin solos by Miss Sarah
Allen and Miss Flora Wittpenn, and were
remarkable for tone and coloring. Miss
Gussie w. Hull sang two charming little
songs with good taste, and Master John LANCE
in a creditable style played cello solos. The
fashionable audience loudly applauded the
students efforts. Messrs. Becker and Baier
in the faculty part of the programme played
piano and organ duets. Mrs. Carrie Conant
Smith sang and Mr.. Theodore Arnheiter played
a violin solo. 1t was one Of the best musicales
of its kind heard in this city.

Visits Jersey City After a Long
AbseneerStory Of a
Famous Crime.


A mar whose name was on everybody's
lips in Jersey city eighteen years ago,
after a long absence came over last

him under the very nose of the gallows.
This man was Covert Bennett, who was
Smith for the murder of her husband,
Patrolman Richard H. Smith.
The crime. which at the time created a

Smith rushed out of her apartments at
No. 1873 Pacific avenue. to q Mrs. Nc
Gregor, who lived upstairs. and gasped:z
My husbands murderedr,
On entering the bedroom of the Smiths,
Mrs. McGregor was transhxed with hor-
TOR. On the bed lay the officer dead, with
his breast stabbed by a knife, or some
sharp implement. Mrs. Smith told the
affrighted woman that her husband went
past four o'clock in the morning she
awoke, she said, and found a towel over
her face. While removing the towel her
hand hit her husbands face, which was
cover that he had been murdered.
The police were summoned, and on in
v~estigating the rooms found the doors
Mrs. Smith was then made a prisoner in
her own rooms. 1t leaked out that Mrs.
Smith had a lover, Covert Bennett, and

wardrobe was minus an underskirt, and
the laundrywoman who washed it said
sne could recognize 1t, having repaired all
articles of that description owned by Mrs.
Bennett and Mrs. Smith were imprisoned
and during their stay in jail were caught
corresponding with each other. Late in
murder in the first degree. An appeal
was taken and the famous artist, Miss
Emma Albeit. took such an interest in
Wall street brokers and collected money
to conduct the new trial. which was given
as the result of the appeal.
Public opinion had undergone a change,
and when the pair were again tried the
jury acquitted them.
Bennett disappeared and SO did Mrs.
Smith. The former resumed his con-
nection with the stage, nd appeared
once since in this city. But for Mrs.
Smith. she has not been heard Of since.
Some said She was married to Bennett
and went out West with him. Other
stories had it that she was living in New
York under an assumed name.

and came to Jersey City last night with q
friend. He only stayed . few hours.

A. PAIN. -. =.
AN ACHE.
A FEAR.
A DISCOVERY!

The above words are only few in
number, but they tell a startling
story. 1t is the story of the man who
suffers from diseased kidneys and inn
pure blood. He has been ailing for
some time past. He has complained
Of tired feelings, low spirits, dizzi-
ness, constipation, dyspepsia, bad
tasting mouth, coated tongue. He
has been troubled with pains in the
back and limbs, sick headaches. He
gets alarmed and at last discovers
the cause of these distressing synp-
toms.
This is not the experience of one
man alone. 1t is the experience of
thousands of people who today find
themselves in bad state of health.
They know they are ailing; they feel
the need of remedy, but they know
not what to take. ..
1t is for just such people that War
ner's Safe Cure is specially prescribed
and recommended by eminent physi-
clans. This is because it is no ordi-
nary remedy, but scientific discov-
cry of the highest merit. 1t is not an
experiment or new thing, but a
time-tried remedy that has stood the
test of years. 1t is the best remedy
for people who suffer from liver and
kidney complaint and impure blood.
There is nothing like it for building
up the system and restoring the
strength. .o p. an v~r,- ~-,

Why He Did Not Speak.

FROM the Chicago inter-Ocean.
Augustus Thomas at the Lotos Club
dinner given In New York city recently for
Chauncey NJ. Depew. told story about the
neat manner in which guest who was in
vited to speak at dinner without notice
evaded the issue. The dinner was one
at which Mr.. Depew and General Horace
Porter had each made an address. When
the speaker was called upon he said: II
want to tell you story. There once lived
in the west a paTson. He had q large
parish. In fact, was the regular circuit
rider of the district. He was away from
home when twins were born to him.
When he got back the attending physician
uptoed into the room and, turning down
the coverlet. showed him the rosy, sleeping
babies. The preacher looked at them
lorg and earnestly, and then he turned to
the doctor and said feeiingly: Doctor, they
are both fine boys. I wouldn't take 81 900
apiece for them now-and 1 wouldn't give
a blamed cent for another one' That Is
my feeling and yours. You don't want
another one after what mas gone before.'

An Opinion of Missionarie.
John A. Cockerill in New York Herald.


Commander Merrell, a member of the
commission appointed to Investigate the at
tacks made last October on American mis-
sionaries, and who has hitherto shared
some Of the antipathy naturally entertain
ed in the United States navy toward mis-
sionary workers, informed me that the trip
to Chengtu had caused him to modify his
views materially. He had doubted the
sincerity of many missionaries, and had
been inclined to believe that a number of
them found better livings in China than
could possibly have fallen to them at home
He saw no place in all his great journey
where he could be induced to live for any
length of time, no matter what the com
persation. He saw something Of the sac.
rifices made by the missionaries in remote
China He saw and noted their zeal. their
earnestness and their untiring industry.
He envied no one Of them He realized
that they earned the remuneration allotted
them over and over and his sympat ath1es
went out to them. Upon this point I may
say that the commission is absolutely
unanimous. The report Of the commits
sion will be ready in a few days. 1 fancy
that its summing up will not be important,
though it has faithfully performed the
duties assigned to 1t.
