James Allen and Colonel George o.

Communication was established between
the state. war and navy departments

Travelled by the waves was more than
mile.
No attempt was made 10 seEd formal

favorable.
Colonel Allen. with the assistance OF
signal corps men, was In change OF the
transmItter which was placed on top
Of the state war and navy departments
building while Colonel Squire was ia
charge OF the receiving lhsirtnient on
top Of the naval observatory.
II took several hours to adjust the In

When this was done. words were tickep

successfully reproduced but enough TO

Colonel Alien said the test was quite
satisfactory for that distance. He ex-

THE FuIPINos DISSATISFIED.

SINGAPORE, April l5.-The latest news
received by the local Filipino junia from
Manila describes the proclamation OF the

The Filipinos are reported as repudi-

that American actions belle American
promises and because the proclamatio
contains no tangible guarantees of self
government, or that the islands viii not
be exploited by the syndicates, adven-

nn.r,ro ar the Molineun Trial.

The opening address of Assistant DIS
trict Attorney General Osborne OF Ne"
YORK. in the Molineux murder trial, yes
terday. appears to be a model of all that
s,cb an address should not be. It was
~yirulent in tone; 1t was grossly unfair
in that 1t sought to establish in the
minds of the jurors Mr.. osborne's own
theories and his perverted statement OF
the facts. to the exclusion of the facts
themselves when they are brought out IN
evidence.
Instead Of stating the facts of the AID
ans tragedy clearly, outlining the case
against Molineux, and explaining ms
theory Of guilt, he INDUCED in a sort OF
dime novel narrative, in which he I'M
pressed on the jurors the impeccability OF
his own witnesses, and the inevitable
guilt Of the accused-the one man In the
world, as he said, to whom the facts
pointed.
Mr.. Weeks protest against this Drey-
fussard style Of prosecution was well
founded. It would nave had the support
Of any impartial Judge. who knew his
trade. Unfortunately, however. the bench
is occupied by the trucculent Golf, who
sits there only to convict. Gofr, as might
be expected. overruled every motion Of
Mr.. Weeks, and so osborne,s speech goes
to the jury with the endorsement of the
Recorder added to its weight.
The common law is in a bad way these
times, and accused persons have rather
a hard time of it escaping conviction,
when the prosecuting authorities want a
little advertising.

Impsrtinsnt Statistics.

The Newark High School authorities,
presumably the principal and teachers,
have created a storm in that city by a
series Of questions which they have re-
quired the pupils to answer on blanks
prepared for that purpose. These ques-
lions will be found in another column of
today's issue of 1.-THE Jersey City News"
They relate, 1t will be seen, to matters
which are in nowise the concern of pub
lie school instructors or authorities. They
deal entirely with the private circum-
stances Of the pupils and their parents,
with which no law or ordinance gives
the school authorities any sanction to
NEEDLE. They refer. also. to the re-
iigious convictions of the pupils n their
parents, and they pry, in an unwarranted
manner into the private affairs of fami-
Hes by inquiring whether the father,
mother or both are breadwinners and to
what extent both contribute.
What possible excuse there can be for
this impertinent inquisition, the High
School authorities fail to state further
than that the information is needed for
statistical reasons. 1t is hard to see what
benefit the general public can derive from
knowing just how their ~neighbors live
and Whence they get the means to live.
1t is sufficient to know that the family
lives respectfully and that its members
are ~law-abiding citizens. The High School
authorities business is to attend strictly
to educating the youth of the city. in
der our public school system it is no con-
Germ of the High School authorities
whether the pupils or their parents are
Christians. Jews or pagans, nor whether
they attend church or not. 1t is simply
the province of the school to see that
the mind Of the pupil is properly trained
and to eave his spiritual welfare to his
parents or guardians.
1t IS no wonder that the people of New
ark are indignant at this impertinent in
quiFy into home life, and it is to be hoped
that the High School authorities will re-
ceive the rebuke which they justly de-
serve.

cadsm of Music.

That exceedingly bright and amusing
comedy. why Smith Left Home" was
produced at the Academy of Music last
night and delighted all who witnessed
the first class performance. Its humor is
irresistible and, unlike the majority of
plays of this class, there is nothing
coarse or vulgar in it. The story is the
domestic entangiements Of one John
Smith, whose honeymoon has been de-
layed by a visitation OF relations. First
comes Smiths elderly sister, who i'm

now in its fourth successful American
tour, will be seen in this city at the Ac-
ademy Of Music, Monday evening and
for the remainder of the week, with
matinees Wednesday and Saturday. h
Z company that will present the piece is
the same that has been appearing In
this country for the last three years, and
the same that recently passed through
such terrible experiences owing to the
wrecking of the Scotsman, on which they
were passengers from Liverpool to Mon
treal. Although the actors lost all of
their personal belongings, the accident in
no way interfered with the production Of
the piece as, fortunately, all of the beau
tiful and historically correct scenery and
costumes for which the play is noted,
were sent over from England by another
steamer. Had they been on the Scots
man it would have been Impossible to
begin the tour until they had been re-
placed from London
Charles Dalton, who has been at the
head of the company ever since IL came
to America, will appear as Marcus Sa-

"Fads and Follies" at the Bon Ton
Theatre.

aFads and Follies'' an up-to-date
| travesty, is the attraction at the Bon Ton
Theatre this week. The olio is an excep-
tionally good one and every act is first
class.
The show begins with La Reane Trio IN
a clean one act. The little tot who sings
and assists in the cake walking OF the trio
is very clever. Lawson and Namon are
a team that every lover o the vaudeville
show should not fail to see while thy are
in this city. The bag punching by Miss
Namon and the bicycle riding by Mt.
Lawson, bring forth applause from aud
fence.
Gilmore and Magee are a very witty
pair, with good voices and fun or jokes.
The song "Asleep in the Deep" sung py
Mr.. Gilmore was rendered in first class
fashion. Another act that has not
been seen on the Bon Ton stage
in quite a while is the orlglnal hupS
juggier, the great Darmody, whose CLUB
swinging IS not only novel but very DIM
| cult. Harris and Walters are another very
| amusing team. Mike S. Whalen, the
Irapid-fre humorist, is too well known IN
this city to need comment. Anyone who
has once seen him will certainly attend
any show that he may be with.
The burieSuue. tfFadS and Fouies, IN
two scenes. a satire on the bicycle and
golf craze of the present day, is a first
class burlesque, in which are seen lots OF
| pretty women and handsome costumes.
The scenery and electrical effects are very
elaborate. Between the first and second
scenes Of the burlesque the Jeffries and
Sharkey fight was reproduced by moving
| pictures, which are shown very plainly.
| They created a great deal of enthusiasm.

are forgiven. In depicting these the au-

splendidly given by the OF art

an interesting one indeed was that when

when Smith d~enounces his shrewish aunt.

in herself. That versatile artistic has lost
none of her matchmaking propensities-

Holland Danes, was exceedingly funny
and evoked roars of laughter. Miss Bran

full, looked well and played we'll Miss
Rose Snyder, as Mrs. Billetdoux, ana
Mrs. e. A. Eberle, as the lady in wait
ing, respectively, played their roles Ell

amusement by his twisted langwich,'
and Fred w. Peters, as lie Brave GEN
eral." too. deserved the applause given
to his work. NJ. B. Snyder, as the Ma
Tor. made the most of a slim part. In
deed each member of the company played
well, and the ensemble was a pleasing,
snappy, humorous farce, which it will do
any one good to see and hear.
