OSBORNE talks AGAIN.
Makes Three Speeches and Declares That
Jerome Has Not Made Good.


James W. Osborne spent most Of last
night attacking Jerome. He called him a
common slanderer," and a miserable
fakir." In between times he read series
of newspaper quotations from the District
Attorneys speeches in 1901, and rang the
changes over and over again on the phrase
did he make goodf'
Early this morning he was still in a Harlem
music hall talking to the remnant of big
crowd. The crowd came early TO hear Nc
Cellan, and most were gone before Osborne
arrived, at II 80 p, NJ. The candidate had
previously SPOKEN at two ether meetings.
At Cooper Union Osborne talked for an
hour though constantly interrupted.
I'm going to read you some Of William
Traves's prediction promises. In 1901 he
said he would follow graftinto the Office Of
dence he needed. Did he ever prosecute
the Metropolitan Street Railway once?
Did he ever make good?'
rNo,T yelled somebody.
AHe said he'd prosecute the wardmen.
The only Yardman convicted was the man
| sent behind the bars. Did he make good?
He said he'd show up the Tammany heelers
in stripes. Did he ever convict, prosecute,
or even charge with anything single Tam
many man? Did he ma Ike good? Why,
out Of a,57e indictments in the year 1904,
he only got 3O6 convictions. Whenever he
had to go before anything that had money
or power he'd turn pale, truckle and back
out.
Osborne rehedrsed his charges about
Jerome's failure to prosecute the Slocum
disaster and the Park avenue tunnel wreck
At Suffers Harlem River Casino, the
Osborne party didn't turn up until the
crowd was nearly gone. The big hall was
almost empty. Osborne carried on the
same sort Of a conversation with hiA audi
ence.

ing of the Navy Department Rear Admra
w. Rae, chief of the bureau, says that
10 few officers Of the line are taking up
engineering seriously that the situation
is becoming alarming
He suggests as plan for the solution
of the problem that all the younger officers
OF the line have engineering duty first
in a subordinate capacity, and their record
must show their ability before being placed
in charge of the engines of any vessel
The board which examines for promot ions
must be strict and engineering must rank
before the board with seamanship, gun
merry and navigation.
The plan further provides that in the
line there shall be a number of en- neerine
SPECIALISTS whose duty at sea and ashore
shall be engineering. but they shall not
perform sea duty after reaching the rank
OF commander. Admiral Raes plan is
to give these specialists course in higher
marine engineering for at least year in
some reputable school of engineering.
The result of the plan would give body

would give a sufficient number of experts

Two negro burglars forced the front door
OF Henry C. Mathews house, at 925 Hudson
street, Hoboken, with a jimmy last night
while the members of the family were at
dinner, and Hilda George, the maid, did not
hear them when she went upstairs to the
third floor to put the children to bed. On
her way down she heard rustling sound
in a bedroom and looked in.
One Of the negroes grabbed her by the
throat. She screamed and the other man
tried To gag her, The girl fought desper-
ately to get out Of their clutches, They
struck her in the face several times and
brutally handled her, but didn't succeed in
overpowering her. Finally they released
her and started to run. Then Miss George
ehrieked.
aOne Of the negroes raised a second
story window and jumped out, The other
ran down the stairs and escaped Into Hud-
son street. August Mathey, a young man,
saw him start on his fight and gave chase.
The negro sprinted along Hudson street
to Ninth street and then around into Wash-
ington street where Mr., Mathey and Charles
Carnieux, an old time baseball player,
captured him. He was locked up after
saying he was Theodore Carroll Of Newark.

.0o POLICE, NO MEETING.
Some Joker Has Been l'sinE Republican
Committee Stationary.

The big Republican mass meeting nd ver-
tised to be held at Durland's Riding Academy
last night didn't come off. Who 1t was
that advertised the meeting Is not known
The police would like very much TO get
hold Of that person At the headquarters
Of Mr.. WINS, in the Hotel Breslin, twas said
that no one there knew anything about the
meeting and that Mr.. INns hadn't been
asked to appear there. The men at the
Republican county committee rooms said
that the meeting was none Of their doing.
Commissioner McAdoo received letter
several days ago on the stationery OF the
Republican city headquarters which after
thanking him for past favors, stated that
monster" meeting was to be held at the
riding academy on Thursday night; that
host Of prominent speakers would appear
and that thousands Of people would no
doubt seek admission.
The letter asked that an extra large
force Of policemen be on hand. Last night
at o'clock Inspector Mclaughlin marched
10 the place ahead OF 200 cops' OF this
number 1l9 had been drafted from the
traffic squad after having worked all day.
The others were old and fat specimens
from the court squads aud other day de-
tails.
Mclaughlin lined them up in front of the
building and waited for the crowd
man came from the inside Of the building
and wanted to know what all the police
were there for He told the inspector
that no meeting was to be held there. The
crowd came just the same. By O'Clock
there was a mob in front Of the place and
half an hour later the street was packed.
Inspector Mclaughlin didn't like to tell
them 10 go home, as he was hopeful that
somebody might show up and start meet
ing.
The man in charge said that there was
nothing to prevent meeting from taking
place II anybody cared to produce the price
of the hall. When o'clock came and there
were no signs of managers or other things
that go with political meeting, Mclaughlin
announced to the crowd that there would be
nothing doing II was a surly lot Of police
men that meandered from the place.

statement:
'The sentiment for the Hearst ticket is

I'VE expect the Hearst ticket to poll no

organization vote; the Hearst ticket will re-
ceive so per cent. of the Republican vote.

N-Ray the CIalrvoyant Of Science.


The scientific clairvoyant is the N

chical turn to N-ray research by an
nouncing ais the fruit of extensive III
vestigationS that he had confirmed the
theory Of previous experimenters and
that the human body emits N-rays OF
various hues from which the charac-
ter Of the individual can be deter
mined. Some eminent scientists ridi-
cule the idea. some adopt tolerant
attitude, while the psychological fra
ternity declared they had been aware
Of the existence Of these color charac-
teristics for years. Sir William Ram
sey states he has never detected the
rays, but intim ates he is open to con-
viotion The skepticism that various
critics have expressed regarding the
N-rays has prompted M. Blondlot to
reply at some length. He emphatic
ally affirms that he can perceive the
rays with the greatest certainty. He
considers it quite natural that persons
who cannot see the action of the rays
on phosphoreDcent screen should
doubt their presence he recommends
them to lean the back and head
against wall, and then to observe
the screen by holding it at a level be-

which is to provide means adapted to
be attached to a telephone receiver

1t Is frequently desired by those

Reaained Appetite by Reading.

There was once man who had lost
his appetite. He regained it by the
simple method Of reading a chapter
Of Dickens before dinner every day.
Sometimes he would read about the
Christmas dinner Of the Crummels,
and again he would read about an
other characters enjoyment of butter
ed toast; but always the chapter
would be upon something good to eat.
The very thought of how others enjoy
ed their food would awake in this
hypochondriac a hunger that made

line would then be cut off. Neither is
it desirable to allow the receiver to
hang dependent from its wires, and in
case it is desired to close the trans
mitter it must be done by ,lding the
hand over the same or by some like
inconvenient means.
1t is the purpose of this invention
to overcome these defects ard provide
means for closing the transmitter and
also supporting the receiver while it
is detached from the hook.
This is brought about by the use of
a device somewhat hood-shaped, which
ia secured to the receiver, and when
It is desired to seal the transmitter
against sound the hood referred to is
pIaced over the mouth of the trans
mitter, and thus is afforded a con-
venient resting place for the receiver
