TOO NERVOUS TO BE TRIED
George Brighton Who Wild Westi-
fed the Nonpareil Saloon.

George Brighton was to have been tried
in the General Sessions Court today on
an Indictment for assault, with intent to
kill, but his counsel William M. KlinI,
represented that Brighton is suffering
from nervous prostration and unable to
bear the strain of trial and asked for
postponement.
Assistant Prosecutor Van Winkle said
that DR.. Swartz1ander, one of the wit
nesses, had come all the way from Penn
sylvania, at great inconvenience to hinl-
self and perhaps would not be able to
come again. The doctor was house sur
geon in the City Hospital at the time
Joseph Sanford, the man who was shot.
was brought there, but he is now prac-
tising in Pennsylvania.
1t was agreed that the Doctors testi-
mony should be taken today and SUBJ
mitted to the jury when the case is
brought to trial DR.. Swartzlander tes>
tilted that he extracted bullet from San
fords arm
1t will be remembered that Brighton
rushed into the Nonpareil saloon at Erie
street and Newark avenue, one day and
asked Sanford to cash a 1000 check for
him. The check was drawn on a blank
receipt Sanford refused to cash it and
Brighton fired a shot at him. Brighton
then jumped on a trolley car but was
captured at the ferry by Policeman
Boyle.
The trial was postponed Indefinitely.

MUSICALE OF '99.
Unusually Large Attendance
Last Night at Hasbrouck
Institute.

Hasbrouck Institute began its week of
commencement celebrations last evening
with it's annual musicale. In view of
the growing popularity of this feature
of commencement the han was even
more crowded than last year, to the ex-
tent that although extra seats were
placed in the two rooms adjoining the
hall, there were still many standing.
The programme was under direction of
Professor Victor Baier, Gustav L.
Becker, Theodore Arnheiter and Edward
L. Groebl, while Professor Adolf Dahm-
Petersen, a graduate of the Cornell Uni
versity, who will become a member of
the Hasbrouck Institute staff next year,
made his Jersey City debut in a baritone
solo, bracketting (a) Recall Our Love"
by Nevin. and (b) "Hybrias. the Cretan,"
by Elliott. He also responded to an en-
core.

selves creditably, but with style. A violin

The Free Ldbrary Rui1ding.

The fight which some of the plumbers of
this city are making against TIE progress
OF the Free Public Library building is
quite worthy Of the reputation which the
trade has acquired for gross plunder of
the public. The work on this building
was thrown open to general competition
on the fairest terms. None Of the present
kickers succeeded in getting a slice of 1t
for one reason, and one reason alone
their prices were far too high. Being
fairly beaten in the open field common
decency would require that they now
keep quiet and refrain from injuring the
public interests by delaying the work.
The winning contractor has complied
with all reasonable requirements of law
and local ordinance in employing local
plumber to make the necessary connection
with the city mains. Just why any fees
were required by one arm of the city
government from another conducting
public work we fail to see; but. reason

THE GENEROUS MlNKS.
VIII Sacrifice Their Chances For
The Good OF Education.

The Executive Committee of the Min
kakwa Republican Club met last night.
When School No. 20 on Danforth ave-
nue.. was destroyed by fire last winter,
the club rented it's clubhouse, on Ocean
avenue. to the Board of Education, for
school purposes. The clubhouse is two
story structure. The ground floor is par
titioned off into two stores. The club
rooms were above, which are used for
the school. One of the stores is now
vacant. A number of people have de-
sired to rent the store, but the club,
understanding that the school rooms are
oyercrowded and that the Board of Ed
ucation is desirous of hiring the vacant
store. has decided to refuse all offers un-
tin the next meeting of the Board of Ed
ucatfon.
Mr.. Winfield Dunn, secretary of the
Climb. said last evening that the Board OF
Education should have first choice in the
matter. although the club would be the
loser il the Board decided against hiring
the store.

Dear, Willard c. Negus, which called
forth. much applause Then eamea a trio
piano performance, "Kriegsmareh," by
Edmund Evertse,l, Harold Brown and

most lcareful training. The time was ex-
cellent. But one of the most entertaining
numbers on the programme was a violin

years. too small to be seen through the
maze of befiowered hats which the ladies'

Miss Flora Wittpenn's violin solo, ave

for she was twice clapped out to receive
flowers. Mozart's Concerto in c. Ma
jor," was most beautifully rendered by
Miss Claudia NJ. Hatch, with orchestral
part on second part by Mr.. Becker.
Though the instrumental music was all
of the most interesting Character and
equally we'll rendered, the audience sigh
ed for a change, and therefore Mr.
Petersen's solos, which came next, We're
doubly appreciated Mr.. Petersen has an
excellent voice of great magnetic infiu-
ence and is one of the few musicians
who can accompany themselves without
in the least deteriorating the voice. He
was most heartily encored and had TO
respond.
The twelfth selection was Andante,
Spinato and Polonaise," Op %, Chopin,
by Miss Marie B. Kruger, with orches-
trail part on the organ by Mr.. Groe5l.
Miss Krueger played without notes and
with most charming technique.
Miss Sarah Aliens violin solo, 'Bar-
carolle,'' was also beautifully executed,
as was Miss Edna A. Vanderhoff's piano
solo. "Andante Favori' while a second
vocal number, Ecstasy" by Miss Edith
H. Cornell. with violin obligato, by Mr..
Arnheiter, received much applause. Miss
Cornell has a fine soprano voice, which
though just trife weak at first, filled
the house beautifully as she proceeded.
Miss Emily B. Alpers' Concerto in
e Flat GI and III movement) with or
chestral part on second piano by Mr..
Groebl, was one of the best executions Of
the evening, while the overture by
Messrs. Baier, Becker, Groebel and Arm
was, as usual, beautifully rendered.
This year a shorter selection than those
of former years was chosen in "FingaPs
Cave" Mendelssohn, and it was perhaps
better appreciated.

and Water Board terminate with seeing
that this work is regularly done.
What they can possibly have to do
with the interior of the building we cam
not Imagine. 1t is to be hoped the Com
missioners will not attempt to interfere
with what does not concern them. They
will certainly place themselves in false
position if they make themselves the
catspaws OF a selfish and greedy combina-
ton
If the plumbers. feel aggrieved, let them
go into court and get what satisfaction
they can. Perhaps it may be possible to
show that their combination is really
conspiracy in restraint of trade. 1t as
suredly gives them a monopoly in Jersey
City of a most offensive and injurious
character.
Before we finish, we may as well say
just one WORD about the cry which some
people have tried to raise because New
York firm was awarded the contract for
this building. There was only one reason
for the award. THE proposal was the
cheapest by nearly $4,000. and as Nor
cross Bros. are a firm of the highest
standing in the country. the Trustees
would have been guilty of crime, and
might have been indicted for it, If they
had wasted the public money by going
over the head of the lowest responsible
bidder. and awarding it to one vastly
higher and not one bit better-if quite as
good
The plea about home interests is neither
good law nor good sense How Demo-
Gratis, who favor free or liberal trade, can
be guilty of such talk, we cannot imagine.
Certainly it would be paying pretty
dear bonus to home industry to have
made the Library cost $4,000 more in or
der to pander to them. We had a sample
of "home industry in the monstrosity
commonly called the ''new City Hall,
with its leaky roof its cinder packed
floors, its doors that will not close, and
all the other scandals and blunders that
make citizens sigh when they speak of 1t.
If the Library building be not at least hve
times superior to this product in beauty.
and in construction, we hope every one
of the Trustees will be indicted and
hanged in chains for piracy on the high
seas.
