His Narrow ESCAPE.

A jolly old steamboat captain with
more girth than height was asked II
he had ever had any very narrow ee-
capes.
Yes" he replied, his eyes twinkling,
"once I fell off my boat at the mouth
of Bear creek, and, although I'm an
expert swimmer, | guess I'd be there
now II 1t hadn't been for my crew.
You see, the water was just deep
enough SOS to be over my head when

The Scuuel to the Joke.

Many years ago Il visitor TO Edin-
burgh was being shown over the high
court of justiciary. He made some re-
mark concerning the dock and its du-
ties. and in reply the official jokingly
said the visitor might one day be sem
fenced to he hanged in that very room.
The sightscer was the notorious Or.
Prltchard. Two years had barely
passed when in the dock he had so
closely inspected he was doomed to
death for poisoning his wife and moth
er-in-law.

NV What a Wonderful
Toy Store.

The little folks that have been coming here
in hundreds must have thought that they were
stepping directly into Fairyland. They were
hardly prepared for such a toy store-for it was
all so big and beautiful and grand. Don't their
eyes open wide as they espy the wondrous things,
the beautifully dressed dolls the realistic railways
the almost life like animals and the hundreds OF
other novel things. It's great scene-one even
the "grown ups" seem to enjoy. Let the young
sters come every day Bring the ones that are
too little to come alone. Just think, but few
short weeks for them to enjoy it in.

The Builders.

The Egyptinns were the builders, -
said II contractor enviously mo won
der their monuments will endure for
ever. Labor wns nothing to them. As
you would spend cent on a newspa-
per so would an Egyptian king put
10000 men TO work upon a temple.
Labor you see, cost nothing. A strik-
ing example of the Egyptian prodigal-
ity of labor lies in this fact: No less
than 2,OO0 men We're employed for
three years in carrying a single stone,
a stone of unexampled size, FROM Els-
phantine to Sais."

A Superb Display of

Coats and Gowns.

We can safely state that no other house be-
tween Buffalo and Pittsburg has sold as many
suits as this store has this season. Whyl No

are shown here Every garment in our house is
new and exclusive-exclusive with us alone.
This store has been noted and reputation

concluded last spring to go In the

succeeded in rearing about twenty
head of chickens. On Wednesday
night OF last week some person or

stole thirteen. Now Potter, who is a
veteran of the Civil War, does not
approve of this way of securing poul-
try, but as the thieves were so gener-
O IS as to leave him one-third of the

generosity he asked the correspond

before the Civil Service Commission
VIII announce officially the new elig-
ible list for patrolmen. Little work
remains in the examining department
before the ratings are entirely com
pleted. The several candidates from
here are still anxiously waiting to
hear If they are among the success
full ones. The present eligible list
for patrolmen is now exhausted. Last
week Commissioner Bingham sent
for an eligible list to appoint fifty
men, but they did not have enough
names to give him. 1t is thought
possible that the new list will be
ready between January Is and jan

Professor Osler, some time ago.
made use of an expression from
which we might infer hat man
should not live longer than sixty
years. He did not say this in so many
words, but the newspapers reported
i'm as saying that mans usefulness
was ended at the age of sixty, and
from what we have be On informed a
number in our borough, from a pol
itical standpoint, are of the same
opinion in regard to the republican
party. From sayings that we have
heard there is a disposition among
the younger element of the republi-
can party in our town that the old
''Shell Barks'' must go. that they
have out-lived their usefulness, pol
itically, that they are in their dotage.
when every nerve is strained TO ele-
waite to positions of trust and profit
those of different political faith. The
younger element will not stand for
this and it is rumored that they in
tend forming an independent repub-
lican club to regulate matters in the
borough. Whether they have been
struck with the new idea" as advo-
Gated last fall, we are unable to say,
but we were informed that bossism
in South Amboy must go, that it was
time a reform movement was inaug-
urated and that the young shoots of
republicanism intended banding to-
gether to teach the old fogies hat
they cannot have everything their
own way. The question has been
asked is that the reason that some
are working so hard for city govern
ment in our borough that there may
be more plums to distribute. About
this the young men care but little,
but it has been a custom as time hon
0red as our government, to the victor
belongs the spoils, and some of the
young republicans in town feel, and
we might say justly, that after voting
and laboring for the success of the
party there ought to be some recog-
milton, and say in their minds II not
in words, remember the outcome in
Middlesex a few months ago.

SAW East GAME.

Another large crowd was in
Knights of Pythias hall Saturday
night to witness the fast game of the
Richmond Lodge basketball team and
a team of the Highland A. c., of Jer-
sey City. The local team won the
game by a score of is to IL. The
game was one of the best and the
hardest contested that has been held
this season. The fine playing of
Bedell and White, of the local team,
were the features of the game, each
making several good baskets. The
local team made even straight bas-
kets to the visitors five. The time
of the game was two twenty-minute
halves. Dancing followed both be-
fore and after the game. The music
was furnished by Professor Stein
hauser, of Perth Amboy.
