COMMENT.

Two more thieves rave been arrested
at New Brunswick, charged,with stealing
copper wire from the line of the Western
Union Telegraph Company. AS the
somewhat distinguished Chief Devery
would say, 'They were caught with the
goods on, so that the prospects of CON
vic'lon are good. Until the September
grand jury meets, the thieves will lie in
fMiSalesex county JaE. II Judge Strong
will follow the precedent set by Judge
Rellstab, and send them to State prison
for a couple of years, he will do much to
break up the robbing of telegraph and
telephone lines that has been so common
in this neighborhood Trenton Times.
According to the reports of the sur
vivors of the Danish steamship Norge,
the rotten life preservers figured also in
the disaster. and the life-boats of the
steamer were unfit for use. These revela-
tions appear to confirm the reports of
loose work of the inspectors. Henry
Lundberg, who certified to the efficiency
of the ~life-saying apparatus OF the Gen
eral Slocum, also gave the Norge her last
inspection. 1T appears also that there
were 14S persons on the Norge, though
her certificate allowed her to carry only
1888 passengers. Elizabeth Journal.

BOIL FEATURE OF BAoDAD.
Every Inhabitant Sooner or Later Suf-
fers from It-Bite Of Insect
Given as Cause.

There is one feature of Bagdad life
! which, though apparently small in
itself, assumes a real Importance to
those who live In that oriental town,
! says a writer in the National Geographic
Magazine. 1t is the Bagdad boil. This
boil deserves a NOR serious name, for IL
is generally more in~convenient and dis
agreeable than a c%arbuncle, for it often
attains unusual proportions and COM
monty lasts for eight or nine months.
Every inhabitant of Bagdad is said, soon
err or later, to suffer from mi of these
boils. Europeans and Arabians alike
being susceptible to 1t; and so universal
is 1t that old Inhabitants of the region
say that they can always tell whether
a man has lived in Bagdad or not by the
scar which 1t leaves somewhere On his
body. In order to have a definite idea
of its nature, the writer called at the
Turkish hospital and Intercepted the
Turkish doctor in charge as to its nature.
After very politely exhibiting a num-
Der of cases he gave me his opinion as
to it's cause: ut is the water, the eli
mate and the sun, monsieur" In the
opinion, however, of DR.. Ramsey, the
resident English physician of the place,
this Bagdad boil is an infection arising
from the sting or bite of an insect which
he describes as a species of fly, and he
recounted his own personal experience,
in which he was conscious of the bite
of this insect on the very spot of his
forearm where the bofl ultimately de-
veloped.

THE MAYORS VETO.


Mayor Seaman's veto Of the labor

Il IL hard to see, in the face of the
city attorney 3 opinion. how he could
have done otherwise. His reasons,

clearly stated and will convince every
intelligent voter that the has acted
for the best interest Of the city.
While there 10 no doubt but that all
government IN a free republic is sup
posed to.be run for the benefit of the
citizens. the Legislation by a munici-
pality IL limited. 1t can not do every.
thing except what the city charter
and State law prohibits. On the other
hand IT, DO nothingexcept what the
charter and State laws provide. The
oity attorney finds no provision for
such an ordinance as has just been
vetoedand for that reason the Mayor
ID justified in vetoing the measure.
