AGAINST THE AMENDMENT.

There appears to be some misunder-
standing among the voters &c to the
intent Of the proposed amendment to
the constitution, which will be submit.
ted for decision At the coming election.
The question will be presented on q
separate ballot, and will be described
as 90 amendment TO the constitution
relating to revenue and taxation"
The purpose of the amendment is to
prevent q reduction of the state tax
levy to II mile, ss the constitution re.
quires. II the amendment carries, the
present state tax levy of 23 mills may
continue to be made by the state au.
thorities.
A vote "for the amendment means
that the voter wishes to permit q state
tax levy of q mills.
A vote "sgainst the amendment
means that the voter desires the state
tax levy reduced to II mile, 80 at pre-.
sent required by the constitution.
The plea that the state ''needs the
money! may be met by the counter
claim that the taxpayer is also in the
same fix. The latter is promised IRE
duction In the tax levy by the present
provision Of the constitution, and may
protect bis rights by voting against
the amendment"
Provision for the financial neces.
cities of the commonwealth can then
be made by the legislative assembly.

As
I'A|GLOA, REACHES
SUMMIT OF GENIUS
Story of Drama in Which Artist
Appears This Week at
Newark Theatre.

The famous "L'Aiglon'' of Rostand
has been proved by Madame Sarah
Bernhard, for whom 1t was written.
to be one of the greatest plays of the
nineteenth century.
Briefly, it is a historical play which
tells the story Of the young Duke OF
Reichstadt, the son of Napoleon l., who
is known as L'Aiglon, or the Eaglet,
and who, when the play opens, is living
In a state of half servitude n moral
bondage at the Viennese court with
his mother, Maria Louisa, second wife
of Napoleon |.
Metternich, chancellor OF Austria, ito
whom after England had seized the
Eagle. the Eaglet has been given In
charge conceals from the boy all
knowledge IF the history which Ma
poleon has made, yet the young duke
Ia haunted by visions of his fathers
fame. He feels the force of a great
Incentive which urges him to live up
to this inheritance, yet shrinks from
initiative because fearing a personal
i~ncapacity to perform the tasks await
ing him.
Has Historical Basis.
The play exposes an enterprise which
had for its object the abduction OF the
youthful prisoner on whom the eyes
Of Europe rested so ~anxiously, and 1t
is an historical fact that such an at
tempt was made
There are many strong scenes. Per-
haps none are more impressive than
the one in the fourth act where LAG
lon stands on the battlefield of Wag-
ram, which stretches out before. the
eye, half lost in the mist and half dis
cernible; a plain of darkness and of
desolation from which the dying
voices of the victims of war arise con-
fused and awful. There Is here a great
scope for Imagination and feeling; a
situation which Is taken advantage OF
to the utmost by Bernhard, who in the
character of "L'Aiglon',' reaches the
summit of her genius in revealing her
W matchless power of Interpretation
and her ability as a profound student
Of psychology.

OF PRISONERS
BLOCK COURT PROCEEDINGS.

CAMDEN, Dec. What with Jig
dancing, shooting crap and a medley
of such sounds from above, the Court
of Chancery, in the Camden Court
House, has rather a difficult time in
retaining Its dignity. In fact, Vice
Chancellor Leaning was yesterday re-
quired t. call upon the services of his
court officers to ouell the disturbance
which occurred In the midst Of an i'm
portant oral decree he was giving.
The Chancery Court room is on the
third fioor Of the Court House n Inn
mediately beneath the Exercising cage
of the county Jail. which graces the
marble structure. It is while the hun
bred or so OF prisoners are having ON
parative recreation that they cut up
their didoes and thus interfere with one
of the most important arms of the New
Jersey judiciary.
