been reduced from %Io,ooo TO a3o,ooo,
and amounts agGrcgatins Sso.oou eS.
pended last month have been diSailoWcd
by the authorities at Havana.
General Leonard Wood, military gov
ernor says it is impossible 10 estimate
exactly month ahead, ana THINKS tlle
best plan would be to forward certain
percentage to Havana every month"; the
department commander having the piiV-
ilcgc OF using the balance subject to Oh
liection later, as under the present syS-
,em it is impossible to run the govern
Ment here. For the month OF March all
expenditure for the entire province must
be kept within Slo,oOo.
Even those tubans who arc most
Friendly to tn" TINTED states anlhorl-
ties say that this amount Is less thah
what was allowed nj any time uhdrr th'
Spanish regime. In the opinion OF others
the object of the restriction is to dis
credit the work already done here by
throwing out Of employment large
number of men and creating discomfort
and disturbance. This is, OF course, an
altogether erroneous assumption, bnt the
fact is that more than 900 men are sud
denly thrown out of work. clrculr-

BOOSTERS TO GIVE A STAG.

That unique social organization, the
Rooster Guard, entered on the twenty
ninth year of it's existence on Saturday
night when the following officers were
installed at a meeting held at Spatz's
Hall, Palisade avenue and Ferry street,
William J. Cross, President; Charles Der
lau, Vice President; William 7. Hadden,
Secretary; Jesse Sketchley, Treasurer;
Herman Bracket, Sergeant-at-Arms; Au-
gust Humid, Captain; Henry Kramer
Lieutenant. An excellent luncheon was
served by Host Spatz at the conclusion
of the installation and until midnight a
social session was enjoyed.
The Rooster Guard is a distinctly Hud-
has steadily maintained its membership
limit of forty, and has always had a large
waiting list. The Thanksgiving Day cele-
bration of the BOOSTERS, which begins with
a parade in the morning, and is followed
with prize shooting in the afternoon and
a ball in the evening, is one of the most
prominent of the seasons events in the
northern section of the Heights. Other
organizations come and go, but the
BOOSTERS live on forever.
Next Saturday night they will give a
stag at Spatz's Hall. The talent thus far
engaged is Phil Heck. tenor soloist; -Four
Ryer Brothers. musical sketch artists;
Dick Haley, comedian, of Sanford &
Haley; J. Lippert, champion club swinger
of Anchor Athletic Club; Manhasset
Quartette of New York; VIM. Charles,
buck and wing dancer, and VIM. Cashier.
comedian. "A big time is expected and
there is no doubt in n BOOSTERS mind
but that the expectation will be realized.

POLICE RETURNS ACCEPTED
Baxter Satisfied With Schoo
Census = Jersey City
Loses 100000.

49,.
State School superintendent Baxter
has accepted the returns OF the police rel
alive to the densus enumeration as cor
rect. The result is that 1880 names
have been dropped from the lists The
spurious names were found in the Sec
ond. Third and Sixth wards.
The enumerators of those wards were
too enterprising. Had they confined their
efforts to locating children on vacant
lots and in stables and coal houses prob
ably little complaint would nave been
made. But they burdened Colonel
Samuel D.. Dickinson with four children
and Deputy Collector Thomas higgins
with three. AS both gentlemen are un-
married, they demanded yindication. The
police hawkshaws failed to find any of
the Dickinson or higgins children.
The revision of the census has lost to
the city about $50, Oo0, which it would
have received from the state had the
original enumeration gone through. There
has been a mistaken impression that The
city was mulcted by the enumerators.
The State pays for the enumeration and
those agents who did the work in the
Second. Third and Sixth wards have not
as yet been paid. They will be paid for
the correct names returned by them.
The gentlemen who made the spurious
again by the Board of Education. The
guilty enumerators will probably be
handled very roughly by the Board Of
Education.

OUR GENTLE H0MICIDES
Lawyers Exhausting All
Their Arts to Save Miscre-
ants From the GalloWs.

Some days ago, Lawyer Joseph M.
Noonan wrote to Secretary of State
Werts requesting him to forward a copy
of the decision of the Court OF Errors
in the case of James K. Brown, the
murderer of Policeman Gerhard of Hobo
ken, as soon as possible after it was
filed. 1t was generally understood that
a decision had been agreed upon about
two weeks ago, but the announcement
of 1t was withheld for some reason.
Mr.. Noonan received a letter from Sec
rotary Wurts this morning informing
him that the Court had not agreed upon
a decision. A conference was held on
Friday, but no definite conclusion was
reached and the Court adjourned until
March 6, when a decision will probably
be given.
Whether the failure to decide he con-
stitutionality of murder trials by struck
juries will laffect the case of William
Reid, the murderer of Andrew Henry,
who is under sentence to be hanged on
February 20, will have to be determined.
Reid was convicted by a struck jury,
Former Judge Hoffman. Reids counsel,
will consult Justice Lippincott about 1t.
Judge Hoffman viii laiso appeal to the

OF Keate, the most famous of all Eaton
headmasters, the author has much to say,
Innumerable stories have been told of his
fiery temper, his peculiar appearance, and
his strong faith in the efficacy of a birch
rod, many of them purely a~pocryphal. All
the world knows Kinglake's picturesque
description of the little man that wore "a
fancy dress partly resembling the cos
tune of Napoleon and partly that of a
widow woman, n has heard Keate's
famous m On the beatitude:
:" Blessed are the purhe in heart Mind
that It's your duty to be pure in hearl.
If you are not pure in heart, I'll fog you"
but it would be a great mistake to re-
gard Keate as merely an irascfble ped
agogue of eccentric speech and manners.
He did believe in 1ogging, and when the
ness the amous instance when he mis-
took his lists and fogged al the candi-
dates for confirmation-also he could not
be Induced to trust his boys, but for all
that he was a man of generous temper
and a noble nature, as we'll as of indomit-
able courage, and deserved well Of a
school which has certainly always kept
his memory green.-"London Spectator
