NEWS NOTES
IN THE COURT

Sheriff Marshall made an excellent
impression yesterday. AS a court
officer he proves a good executive.
People were much interested yes
terday in some of the contentious of
counsel.
Former Governor Edward G. Stokes
with his brother Howard, were atten-
tive listeners to all the proceedings
yesterday. Both are endeavoring to
secure money damages from the Pen
ma. Railroad owing to the death of
their father, whose auto was struck
by train.
The Court has est Monday, the 2Sth,
for hearing the F. P. Riley will case.

They cannot find much to do.
Witnesses awaiting for grand jury
summons, kept very close to the warm
rooms in the building.
County Clerk L. H. Hogate acts
with the confidence of a veteran in
his capacity as a court official. He
seems to know fully all of the duties
of his important position.
In view of the fact that the five
cases against the West Jersey & Sea-
shore Railroad now being tried in
the Supreme Court will probably take
up the Courts time for the balance of
the week, Circuit Court Judge Carrow
dismissed the jurymen not drawn on
the above cases until Monday morn

voice OF this bird is much like hu-

than the parrot and is as clever at fn1i-
tating as the American hooking bird.
1t whistles in exact imitation Of its
master and sings whole songs through
without making mistake.
The master Of this songster always
summons his servant to him by call
ing "Boyw The nlineur learned to
do the same thing. with the result that
the servant was sent on FOOLS er-

whether the master called or the
mineur This greatly annoyed the serv-
ant. whose owner told him that he
need not come unless he heard the call,

days time the mineur had learned his

Then it was arranged that the master

who found thar his fun was over.

whole miserable story of incapacity
for managing the great affairs of

THE similarity of the ~cXigcncy Of

most shrinking. The former
Democratic administration, which

prostration Of 1896 with its scenes
of misery. want and starvation, was
in Just such n position as is the pros

IClcvclaud treasury was empty. his
celebrated WilSon-GOrman congress
was just as utterly unable to cut
down "Rcpublican extravaganza in
Concentrations" and bring about
economy in national expenditure as
is our dcludcd and incompetent
friends now in the saddle at Wash
ington. The consequence was that
the Cleveland administration author
lied an extraordinary bond issue %
$3.50. 900, 900 to stock the empty
TREASURY, and made some other NJ
Eadviscd financial moves in their
desperation and incompetcncy, VITA
the result that the country was
trplungcd into such a season OF rull

before been known.
