The new lease of life granted to the
cowardly and brutal assassin, Edward
Clifford, is a disgrace to the Supreme
Court and an outrage on the people of
the State. The technical points upon
which it is granted are trivial and
frivolous. There is not even a pretext
that there is any substantial injustice TO
the man, whose crime and responsibility
are outside the pale of discussion.
If this man escapes the consequences
of his homicidal act, there win no longer
be safety for any employer who finds It
necessary to rid himself of a drunken and
Objectionable rufian. The discharge from
a pistol will be the acknowledged reply
to a discharge from a situation. and the
authority Of the Supreme Court may be
quoted to uphold its legality.
VS. believe that in the long run Clifford
will be hanged, as he should be. In that
case, the lawyers, who are now obstruct-
ing the course of justice in his behalf,
will be guilty of very grievous cruelty
towards him as well as of gross injury
to the State and its people.

GERMAN HOSPITAL FAIR
Another Large SUM Realized at Last
NIGHTS Ball.

Columbia Hall. in G~reenville, was
crowded last evening with a merry throng,
the occasion being the second installment
Of the fair of the German Hospital and
Dispensary Association of this county.
There were no handsomely decorated
booths or stands scattered around the
spacious hall, and for this the young
people were very thankful. The vacant
floor space gave them plenty Of room for
dancing and many INDUCED in that merry
pastime. The booths. or rather ong
tables, were ranged along he wallis and
In front of the platform.
This event was held for the purpose OF
disposing of the many small articles left
from the fair Of a month ago, which was
perhaps larger and more successful than
any similar event held in this city. Very
nearly s., 600 were realized on that occa-
sion, but if the funds did not reach that
mark last month they surely went far
above 1t last night, as the sales We're
quite brisk and fair prices were received
for all the articles disposed of. The huge
wheel OF fortune, which proved a regular
Klondike mine for the association at the
former fair, was put in use again and
many valuable articles were disposed of
in this manner. This huge wheel was
kept revolving all the evening and those
fortunate enough to hold the lucky NUM-
Der at which the dial stopped usually
went away happy. Al times the crowd
was ten deep around the wheel and 1t
was with much difficulty that many got
anywhere near it,. There were a few
chance books left from the former event
and these were NIT ont again last night,

Tn presenting Puccini's l. Boheme,
for the first time in English in America
the Castle Square Opera COMPANY
launched into the most ambitious effort
of it's career and last Monday night may
be said to have marked a milestone in rs
progress. SO notable an occasion natural
" attracted to the American Theatre the
usual crowd of musical enthusiasts. For
-the eommendable enterprise in affording
the New York public the first fair oppor-
tunity of passing Judgment upon TINS eA-
ouisite composition, the management re-
ceived the reward of a success worthy
of being described as sensational, when
viewed from both the artistic and flnaa-
cial standpoints.
The members of the organization gave
a vivid exposition Of the dramatic ana
musical contents of 4 Boheme,' which
represents life as it was lived IN the
Bohemia of the Latin quarter in the
Paris of 1890, where the happy, careless
poets. artists and beauties loved, quarrel
ed and suffered. The story was related
against d background which had an UNI
common power of illusion. The cheerful
garet in which the four friends, Rudolph,
Marcel, Colline and S~chaunard, were first
discovered and in which the final tragedy
occurs; the brave picturesqueness of the
Cafe Momus and it's surroundings, and
the grim sBarriere d'Enfer." with the
snow falling. were all in keeping with
Henri Murger's story from which the
libretto was drawn. The costuming was
of the 1880 style, displaying the quaint
bonnets, hats and the wide skirts of the
period. The chorus was surprisingly apt
in catching the spirit and movement Of
the opera.
Miss de Treville, Miss Norwood, Miss
Knox, Mr.. Sheehan, Mr.. Bassett, Mr..
Stewart, Mr.. Butler, Mr.. Witherspoon,
Mr.. Moulan and Mr.. Knight scored indi-
vidual successes by their fine voealization
and dramatic force. Great praise is due
the orchestra for their rendition of
Puccini's meIodiously beautiful score.
The management have, in Difference 70
universal demand, decided to present LA
Boheme', for another week. On Decem-
Der Y a spectacular production of Faust"
will be given by the Castle Square Opera
COMPANY.

''PINAFORE" WELL DONE.
Church Choir Company Gives
An Excellent Performance
Of the Well Known Opera.


Gilbert & sulivan's opera. III. NJ.
s. Pinafore,'t was produced quite sue
cessfully last evening by amateurs, at
the Jersey City Clubhouse. The piece
was in the hands of the Church Choir
Opera Company, which made its debut
last night, and, to say the least, the per-
Torrance was a creditable one. The cast
and chorus contain many well known
singers of this city, and the costumes
and the scenery We're especially designed
for the occasion
The clubhouse was filled to the doors
at the hour Of beginning the perform
anee. The balcony was filled with pretty
girls, who quite evidently sought that
point of vantage, both to see and be
seen. The floor below was none less
crowded. The Jersey City Lodge Benev-
client Protective Order of Elks, took a
special interest in the performance, ow-
ing to the fact that several members of
that lodge were III the cast. The lodge
paid SIS for one seat as a compliment to
the Church Choir Company
The stage Of the Jersey City Clubhouse
is well adapted to such productions and
the performance ran off quite smoothly
and without a hitch. There were few
delays, which go to make al amateur
performance q bore, and for his the au-
dience was thankful. The piece is well
known, having been produced for years
in this and other cities. Every person IN
the cast filed his or her part up to all
requirements and lots of well merited
applause was showered upon the per-
forniers. The chorus was well drilled and
the singing was literally appiauded. A
dance followed the opera, and it was
quite late before the gathering departed
for home.
Those who took part we're
Sir Joseph Porter. K. c. B., Walter c.
Smith; Josephine, Annie Shelter: Captain
Corcoran. Joseph A. Smith; Little But

MAYOR Hoos ON City Finances.

Mayor Hoos' letter to the Board of FL
nance. Yesterday, was in every way an
admirable It was cool and
temperate in spite Of great provocation.
It was lucid and comprehensive in its
treatment of the subject. 1t was truth
full in tone and substance beyond he
cavilling of malice itself.
The Mayor points out that the tax
budget just framed is the first for which
he and his administration are RESPONSE
BILE. This is an elementary fact which Is
not open to denial. Last year, the Board
of Finance, which makes the budget,
consisted Of four members appointed by
Mayor Wanser, and one, Mr.. Midlige, in
sympathy with Mayor Hoos.
The a further points out that the
rate this year is reduced. This is an
other elementary fact, not open to de-
NAL. The rate last year was $3.50 in
gross upon the thousand dollars. This
year it is s2S.60. This is not a huge re-
d~uction, but it is a genuine one.
The Mayor makes one other important
assertion. He says that any increase
which is to be found in this years budget
is either on account of the schools, n
he has no apology to make for 1t, or else
it is to pay liabilities contracted by his
-~x7o1o-~1, m1,- = oieo olos,, nvlsob
is not open to dispute or denial.
The Tribune this morning, tries to
befog the whole subject by saying that
the Mayor tries to take the credit Of
work lone by Mayor wanser. This is
simply a f%alsehood. Nothing in the May
or's letter bears any such construction.
The letter is devoted merely to COM
batting the assertion that the present
administrator is more costly to the city
than the Republican regime. The charge
is a wanton, malicious lie, fabricated in
the office of the Evening Journal and
repeatedly printed in its columns, but
never with wen a pretext of proof or
detail. 1t Is a falsehood made out of the
same material as that outrageous libel,
a few months ago, to the effect that the
city was about to default on its water
bonds. 1t is a lie of the kind that the
Journal has for years printed and re-
printed, to the infinite injury Of jersey
City in reputation and standing, in wealth
and population.
One of the best parts of Mayor Hoos'
letter is that in which he points out the
disastrous effect which these lies, origi-
mated in this pestilent local publication,
and repeated in ignorance by ~wspap
all over the State and in New York, have
upon the fortunes of Jersey City. They
drive residents out of the town; they
prevent new people from coming in. They
discourage investors. They are a crime
and a disgrace, and it is a Wonder that
even decent Republicans should buy or
read the paper which disseminates them
