WHERE IS THE SCIENTIST? Heat and cold are two opposing forces in nature, and, when mingled in suitable proportions, make the world a very comfortable place for mankind; but when either bears unobstructed sway it is anything but agreeable for the human race. Why should not the scientists, who love to pry into the mysteries of nature and wheedle her secrets away from her, make themselves useful to their suffering fellow-creatures by inventing some plan for storing up for time of need some of the superabundant heat and cold that oftentimes make life a burden? If last winter, when the thermometer was loitering about zero, they had locked up in caskets a good supply of condensed cold, it would be exceedingly pleasant during the roasting weather of the summer months to

have some on hand, and have this cooler

on top of our houses that we might reg-

ulate the temperature at will. And if we

are obliged to go abroad, a pocket flash

would keep the person cool and enable each one to carry with him the means to modify the temperature as he went.

And then if some of this sweltering

heat that makes us pant for breath

were safely corked up, it would be very

handy to let out in our houses next winter when the thermometer is hunting for zero, as well as make our coal bill lighter. We are ready to give due credit to scientists for the wonders they have achieved and the beneficent influence of these achievements, but they will commend themselves to the common people in an especial manner

if they devise a plan to store away for time of need some of the abundant heat

and cold which at certain seasons make their presence so convincingly felt. Let the wise men put their wits to work.

IF people were bound to silence upon subjects concerning which they are ignorant or unqualified to speak, what a sudden, unexpected, and all prevailing hush there would be.

ADVERTISING is the life of a newspaper, and it is also the life of trade. The people of this town should not forget this if they expect to prosper.

Do not retail your troubles to your neighbor, for most likely he has more and worse troubles than you have, but has the good sense to keep still about them and bear them with resignation.

THE man who supports his home merchant, his home wheelwright, his home carpenter, blacksmith, painter,

printer and every other home industry,

is the citizen who can in return demand that all these men support his particular business. "Never go away from home for a workman or for goods when you can possible avoid it," is a good motto, and strengthens a commu-

nity as nothing else can do.

THE Trenton True American remarks: "In the case of the newspapers it should be remembered that while getting paid for the publication of the laws, they are doing a great deal of work in the interests of the public for which they get no compensation whatever--a work, in the course of a year, if paid for at the rate allowed for printing the laws would, in most cases, amount to a great deal more than the State pays them for that service, whereas the legal fraternity, whom the committee has treated so tenderly, do no work that is voluntary, or for which they do not make charge. But it is not so much this as the fact, as pointed out by the press, that they are showing larger pay for the same work, while the conditions of to-day, so far as the necessities of life are concerned, do not warrant any such increase. The newspapers would have no cause for complaint if there had been an honest effort to economize all along the line, but when they are signalled [sic] out and made the exception, in view of the public service they are rendering without remuneration, the injustice of it must be apparent to the most careless observer." THE Trenton True American says: "Our esteemed contemporary, the Jersey City Evening Journal, is moved to inquire how it is that the Voorhees-Corbin Committee declared that the cost of the courts, which has increased from $65,569 in 1875 to $171,826 in 1894, cannot with propriety be curtailed." The Journal has evidently failed to remember that Mr. Voorhees once came near to being appointed a Justice of the Supreme Court, or to note that Mr. Corbin has evidently felt that he was winning his spurs in a search for a judicial position by his conduct of the investigation. They are both lawyers; they controlled the committee; and the committee was never allowed to inquire into any matter which involved the size of a legal retainer, or salary; the compensation of a law officer; or the cost of any work done by lawyers. The same committee that growled at every salary paid to every officer of the State; the same committee that thought $6000 a year a large enough salary for an office which involved the greatest care and responsibility, such as Clerk in Chancery, Clerk of the Supreme Court and Secretary of State, approved the bill of its legal counsel at fifty dollars for every day (except Sunday) that passed between the beginning of the work and the date of the bill--or at the rate of $15,650 a year.

The only person who was examined before the committee, without the re-

striction of an oath, was Counsellor Frank McDermott, of Newark, who

was cautiously questioned upon his get-

ting through the Legislature a bill for which he received $2300 for collecting a claim of $600 for a Newark printer. And when this fact was evolved, the committee left Lawyer McDermott, in order to chase up a printer who had made a few hundred dollars by staying

out of a competitive bid, which meant to him a loss if he went into it.

The Journal is not the only one who has noted the clear prejudice of the Cor-bin-Voorhees committee in favor of the lawyers, nor yet their merciless, if not

malevolent, persecution of those not shielded by the professional clique and

their Republicanism.

THE THIRD TERM. From recent developments we may infer that President Cleveland had some serious exercises of mind regarding a third term as chief magistrate.

Whether the idea was evolved from his own brain or the "bee" that was put in his

"bonnet" by some super-serviceable sub matters little. We suppose the ears, misgivings and questionings that have occasioned him so much anxiety have grown out of his public utter-

ances about "the one term," "public

office a public trust," and "the office seeking the man;" and the puzzling

problem is whether these can be so

mystified, explained, or sand papered

down, as to square with a known desire for four years more in the White House. We have no doubt he is able

to do this to his own entire satisfaction, but the point that troubles him is whether he can do it to the satisfaction of the people. Under these circumstances his master stroke of policy is to overcome any lack of consistency by the plea of necessity. It is a time of public peril! The country is in danger!

Dangerous financial heresies are ram-

pant! The people are infatuated! A

clear head and strong hand are needed

to sail the Ship of State! I am the man for the hour and the place! This is not flattery; it is his honest opinion of himself; and if others do not think the same the worse for their judgments. He would take it as very unkind if any should imagine that his desire to keep his place grew out of his ambition, love of power, or care for paltry salary connected with the office. No! No!

It is just his desire to rescue the Democratic party from the hands of demagogues, cranks and fools, and through them to save the country. That's all.

With this end in view he has thrown out hints from time to time, the significance of which it was not difficult to in-

terpret. But in a recent letter to Gov-

ernor Stone, of Mississippi, he has formulated his platform, mounted it, and flung his flag to the breeze, and invited a rally. Whether it will find the rank and file of the party so open to conviction as to respond to his bugle blast is doubtful; more likely to find

them utterly besotted and joined to

their idols. In pursuance of his purpose he is arranging for an array of workers to gather and consolidate the party on these lines. He is reading a new meaning unto his favorite maxim that "public office is a public trust," and is giving office holders to understand that loyalty to the party, country

and himself, implies harmony of views with the chief magistrate, and the efforts to give them force by consolidating the party on this basis. So office holders who are not sound in political and financial faith, or are found lacking in "pernicious activity" to promote and build up the President's party, need not be surprised if they are shown the door. Lacking in loyalty to their chief, how can they be expected to be loyal to their government or fit for their place? We wonder how the party at large will look upon these outcroppings of the President's desire. At present it seems to regard him as an impossibility. But the party is so divided, demoralized and factionized, that his nomination may become a necessity.

A BURGLAR CAPTURED. He Is Recognized as an Old Offender--Marshal Harry L. Conver Renders Valuable Aid in Locating the Man.

The cool and desperate burglar who entered and robbed the cottage of Mrs. Egbert Ward, Atlantic City, an account of which appeared in these columns on May 23d, has been trailed down and captured by the police.

The burglary was committed on May

15th. The bravery and self-possession

shown by Mrs. Ward, who was awakened by the noise he made in moving about

her room, was a matter at the time of

public comment.

When aroused she was confronted by the burly form of the negro, who caught her by the throat, and threatened her

life if she made an outcry. More from affection for her aged

mother, lying ill in an adjoining room, than from fear or fright, she kept her

presence of mind and restrained herself from screaming for help. A demand for her valuables was promptly met by

her arising from her bed and leading him to the bureau in which they were

kept.

While the negro was leaning over the bureau Mrs. Ward, in the belief that she could scare him off, touched an electric button and lighted the electric lights

all over the house. The burglar, startled, but not frightened, turned around and

pointing a revolver at her, made her keep silent, while he shaded his coun-

tenance with his hat.

He then made his way down stairs carrying what booty he had secured, and out the basement window by which he entered. Mrs. Ward returned to her

room and locked herself in.

The case was reported to the Atlantic City police and since that time they have visited Philadelphia, Camden,

Cape May and other places without suc-

cess. On Thursday last, Sergeant Jesse Leeds came over from Atlantic City to confer with Marshal Harry L. Conver, of this city, and give him a description of the fellow wanted. As soon as Marshal Conver learned the description he informed the sergeant that his man was here, and together they started to work. They finally located their game at Fiftyseventh street, where he was grading for Messrs. Champion & Brown. Sergeant Leeds at first would not believe it to be the man wanted, but Marshal Conver insisted that it was and volunteered to arrest him. With revolver in

one hand and handcuffs in the other,

Marshal Conver soon had the bracelets on his wrists. Sergeant Leeds stood on a hill a few feet distant and covered the suspect with a pistol while Officer Con-

ver made the arrest.

On searching the fellow, an exceedingly large bunch of keys was found on

his person.

The officers brought the prisoner up to Eighth street on the train, after which Sergeant Leeds continued the

trip to Atlantic City.

Marshal Conver is entitled to praise for the neatness and dispatch with which he captured the crook, and Ocean City may congratulate itself on getting rid of such a character in short order. At headquarters he was subjected to a searching investigation and proved to be Samuel Valentine, a well-known Philadelphia crook, who had only been released from prison a short time, after serving a ten years' sentence for entering and robbing the Lucas cottage at Pennsylvania and Pacific avenues. He was arrested at that time by Chief Eldredge, who was then sergeant, and Sergeant Leeds. When he was sentenced by the court he threatened to kill the Chief as soon as he was released. Mrs. Ward was requested to call at the station, and as soon as the prisoner was brought in she identified him as the person who had entered her cottage and robbed it.

Atlantic City's Water Question.

Before Vice Chancelor Bird, in Camden, Monday, counsel for James Brady, a stockholder of the Atlantic City Water Company, made an application for an injunction to restrain the Atlantic City

Water Company from selling its plant to the Atlantic City Common Council.

Counsel for the complainant contended

that the company had no right to compromise on the award made by the

Commissioners who were appointed to

condemn the plant. The Commissioners awarded the company $843,000, and the Common Council of Atlantic City thought that excessive and the award

was reduced to $771,782. After considerable discussion on the

subject Vice Chancellor Bird took the

papers in case and reserved his decision.
