POKER PLAYING.

Sometime ago the CHRONICLE called
attention to the fact that several poker
''joints" existed in Morristown, particu-
larly specifying one that was run over a
store facing the Green.
The publicity thus given to the affair,
though it did not awake the police from
their somnolence, caused the players to
change their meeting place to private
residence in the First ward, where
the game was carried on as aforetime.
1t has been temporarily suspended, as
owing to run of i'll luck the business
affairs of the promoter were found to
have become very much entangled.
The lucky Morristown sports will soon,
if they have not already, secure another
meeting place, where the clerk, the
mechanic and the business man will
continue to be plucked, under the very
noses of the guardians of the law

THE NEW JERSEY.

One of the new battleships will be
named after New Jersey. During the
recent meeting of the Legislature num-
Der of petitions were presented from
many of the municipalities of the State,
including Morristown, which were for
warded to the President and Navy De-
partments, with additional resolutions
favoring such action. Vice President
Hobart, Attorney General Griggs, Sena-
tor Sewell and the New Jersey Congress
men were all active in urging the claims
of the Jersey Blue State, which, we are
glad to say, have been recognized. When
the proper time arrives it would be
eminently proper for each county in the
State to contribute towards the furnish
ing of the big fighter, and we doubt not
the response will be prompt and generous.

Commodore Dewey in such good stead.
The Raleigh had for several years been
favorably known for the Workmanship
displayed by her gun crews in target
practice. Her commander, Captain
Joseph B. Coghlan, who, as an ensign,
got some slight glimpse of service in the
Civil war, had gone through all the
various branches of service under the
Navy Department, and consequently
represented standard of accomplish
ment practically unknown in the Span
ish navy, SO that with such men in COM
mand to act with Dewey it is easy to ex-
plain May /.
The Raleigh was third in line follow
ing the Olympia and Baltimore, when
the squadron steamed past sleepy Cor
regidor, and she took prominent part
when these six men-of- war "maneu-
vered repeatedly" off Cavite, at least one
of the Spanish vessels receiving its coup
de grace from her we'll aimed guns.
AS one of the units of the magnificent
Manila squadron the Raleigh and her
brave crew deserve the reception await
ing them, and in which New York will
but echo the sentiment of nation
united as it has not been for years.

REPUBLICAN ALL ALONG THE
LINE.

The Republicans more than held their
own throughout New Jersey in the cleo
tions held on Tuesday. Newark, Tren-
ton, New Brunswick, Elizabeth and
Asbury Park were among the places
carried by the Republicans by increased
majorities. In Paterson a Republican
Board of Alderman was elected, al
though the Democratic candidate for
Mayor was re-elected-the fourth time
in succession that the Democratic mayor
atty candidate has been chosen.
The returns are at last all in from
Hudson county, including the notorious
Horseshoe district, and, as was ex-
pected, it went Democratic, but by
reduced majority. This only emphasizes
the statement recently made in public
by Senator McDermott "that the people
of his county were tired of Democracy
as at present organized and controlled in
his county"

THE RALEIGH's HOMECOMING.

The cruiser Raleigh will enter New
York Harbor tomorrow, the first of Ad-
miral Dewey's fleet to reach home port
since the magnificent victory in Manila
Bay nearly year ago,
1t is needless to say that Captain Cogh-
Ian and his officers, and every member
of the crew, not even emitting the pow
der monkeys, will receive hearty
welcome.
The Raleigh will soon round out more
than year of war service, dating from
the time it hurried from the Mediter-
ranean to join Dewey at Hong Kong,
and its whole career for the war period
exhibits the two naval virtues that did
80 much to bring the war to an early
close foresight and readiness for emer-
gencies.
Not only was the Raleigh promptly
ordered to reinforce the Chinese SQUAD
ron of the United States Navy, move
ment dictated by immediate foresight
but in her equipment and the efficiency
Of her guns, she represented that condi-
ton of preparedness that stood the then

A new and very pretty feature of the
Easter services held in connection with
the intermediate Department of the
Sunday school of the South Street Pres
byterian Church was the manner in
which the scholars participated. In Jan
uary the scholars, sixty-three in number
were given plant, which by careful at
tention would probably be in bloom
about Easter. The golden text of the
lessons were written out by the scholars,
collected by the teachers for the quarter,
pasted together with the name of
the scholar attached to each pot of flow
ers. The Easter exercises ended,
the flowers, with their golden text &C
companist, were sent to Memorial Hos
pital. where it is needless to say they
were greatly appreciated

TWO PICTURES To LOOK ON.

The Democratic party, in Cleveland's
second term in the Presidency, had to
sell $262, 100000 bonds to meet the de-
mands of the government in period of
peace. The Republican party, on the
other hand, has provided revenue
scheme which has met the governmental
needs which a great war has created.
This is only one of the many differences
between the shiftless and reckless Dem
ocracy and the public-spirited and cap
able Republican party. The Republi-
cans financial exploit in this respect
will win them many votes in the Presi-
Dental canvass next year-ISt. Louis
Globe Democrat (Rep).

silks for summer.

China or India silks are to be more
fashionable this year than. they have
been for very long time. They are
certainly much cooler than the taffetas,
or for that matter, than almost any other
material on the market They are ex-
quisite in coloring, and, besides, have a
great variety of designs entirely differ
ent from those used on the taffetas,
except the black figured ones that have
much the same designs, lacking, however,
the stiffness and body of the taffetas.
Many of the figured China silks are
comparatively inexpensive. and almost
all wear we'll. They must be made up
either with silk lining or with very good
cotton lining, while the taffeta silks have
the advantage of not needing lining. -

MIR. Whitehead said the cost of run

whether there were few or many in
mates. He thought the townships left too
many of their poor to the support OF
the county.
Mr.. Milledge said nearly all applicants
asked for outside support now. In
many instances the cost is greater than
that of maintaining such persons in the
county institution.
Mr., Cook thought that as Mr.. Smith
asked so very little of the board, his mo-
ton should be granted, and it was.
On motion. $3.50 a week was appro-
priated for Mrs McGoldrick, and Ella
Cole of Boonton was accepted as coun-

The Committee on Poorhouse and
Children's Home reported little sickness
in the latter institution during March,
but two deaths had occurred from chronic
illness. Two persons were admitted to
the poorhouse and 6 were discharged,
leaving 95 there at present.
In the county Jail there are 10 pris-

discharged during the month. Number
of prisoners at last report was 80.
In the matter of claim of Frank Right

holders of these counties agreed to pay
$50 each for damages.
Mr.. Dalrymple, in reporting for the
Committee on Miscellaneous Bills, asked
that bill of $15 be paid for soldiers burial,
but owing, it was stated, to the small
amount of funds on hand, even this was
laid over.
Mr.. Milledge reported that the Finance

showed receipts of $12 1856: expenditures,

KANSAS APPRECIATION.

Captain D. S. Elliott, a resident of
Coffeyville, Kansas and who was killed
in the battle of Manila, the Emporia
(Kansas) Gazette says, Ran a good
newspaper; and yet the average Coffey-
vile advertiser generally turned him
down because they could not control the
policy of his paper Others, instead of
rallying to his support to make good
paper, took their job work to the job
offices; and the very persons who jewed
Elliott down to 90 per cent. on advertis-
ing rates, will swell up with windy
oratory at the dedication of the monu-
ment. Coffeyville starved Elliott to
death and the words on his monument
should read:

AS noted elsewhere in the CHRONICLE,
the Morristown Trust Company has
added to its Board of Directors four we'll
known gentlemen. Three of these gen.

it will be distinct gain to the town to
have them interested in its affairs.
While this is true of all of them, it is
particularly so in regard to General
Sewell on account of his eminent politi-
cal position and commanding influence,
and of d. Willis James, whose wise and
great works of philanthropy have made
his name household word. Mr.. Haven
has been prominent figure in banking
circles in New York for years, while
Mr.. Taylor, although he has not long
