Hfi Any decision of the Coutlt of ApponU K,slionld commantl respect. Both press and Mpnblia shonld bo slow to find fanlt withtho Ki'dnlibcrnto verdict of Ihe highest court in the B State. P4,i And yet the action of tho Court of Appeals Bpn reversing the decision of tho lower courts R and ordering a now trial for Jacob Siiaiip is Ht a very remarkable phase of jurisprudence. Hfc There are certain extraordinary facts that K can not bo gainsaid. First No ruling of Hy Judge Uahiiett in a criminal case has Kvlieretofore been rovcrbed. Second The Keelections of Judges Fotter and IIdues Rto hear tho motions for appeal were H'' the occasions of unfavorable comment Hft on. (he part of Bench, Bar and, H& public Third This decision was discounted Kte in this city two or three weeks ago. Counsel Hjlffor Shabp have rciteratod their confidence in B the result. ' Hk' The decision, to say the least, is unfortu Kf Uttte in its general effect. It will givo an im R. liression of the powor of money rather than Hg of the impartiality of justice. The poor Hr boodlers languish in Sing Sing. But the Bjgr'rich offender escapes punishment tempo. K tarlly and hopes to avoid it altogether. Kf THE NATIONAL CONVENTIONS. Httb Five cities are contesting for the honor and HKrjproiH of being selected as the meeting-place Kt$pf the national conventions. Rjj-f New York, which has the least need of the M 5nflux ot strangers and tho incidental shekel, .distribution, is unquestionably the fittest H$p place on ninuy nccouuts. HK. This'titnto, and that portion of it within a W radius of. ten miles, of City Hall, will prob. Bp 'ably decide the Presidential election. This Hf I" therefore a good spot to wotk in any help Hb which b convention might give to tho cam. BTpaigu. . Hero, too, is the great centre of Hn'Xiews-4istribution. Neither hotels nor a hall K Vonld need to bo improvised. H& And still the West is a great country. RL FORFEIT THE 0HABTEE8. Hpl' Tho Chicago City Council has found the K' tight weapon with which to fight the Trusts. Bjx Italls for legal proceedings to forfeit the Hr charter of every gas company in the city that H has "pooled" its stock in the Chicago Oas Is TniBt" Jk' 'a Trust has secured control of all the Kgft compahies, and advanced the price of gas Wm$R 25 per cent.

HKL deportment of Government work makes Bei ft tetter showing than tho Lifo-Saving Ser. fe T'c. During the last year it has assisted S32 Bi, Otaabled or stranded vcssols and bayed 6,273 K Mves and 85,788,820 worth fSf proerty. Kv Tho reoord of the service is a record of H; Juex'isw. Tpcoially during the past year B; r',)iMt ihe press furnished abundant evidenco K, fdgyaiUajiUvoikiu to hardy doty on the part of the life-savers of the great lakes and along the coasts. The attempt of somo politicians to apply their spoils theory to this strvlco savors al. most of sacrilege. Let them keep their hands off. No party brand can make or unmake a hero, and that is the sort of stuff required a tho life-saving stations. OIVE IT PROMPTLY. Jacob Hkabp has beon granted a now trial. Lot tt be promptly given him. No new preparation is uceded. Tho facts aro 'pal pablo and proven. The evidenco declared to have been improperly admitted is not neces sary. To lcavo tho veteran rich briber long at liberty would scandallre justice. Let the now trial be set for an early day, HOST'S DESIRE. All the witnesses on Herr Most's side, while affirming that his speech was like the mournful cooing of a dove, admit that ho did oxpress a Btrong desire to see the execu tioner of tho Chicago Anarchists" only to be introduced to him." This docs not necessarily imply that Most desired to executo the oxocutioner. Ferhaps he only wanted to test his owu nervo by con. fronting the man who had mode Anarchism unhealthy out West. Perhaps he wanted to ask tho instrument of the law if ho sup. posed hanging really hurts much. Ferhaps ho wished to beg tho "minion" to repent, and join tho "Joiiann Moht Peace Society," and becomo a lamb. Thutho meditated personal injury is not probable. Big words and beer foam do not hurt haugmon. KOBE THAN A MONOPOLY. Tho word " monopoly " gives but an in. adequate idea of tho nature of tho Standard Oil Trust. Thoro is indeed no ono word in the language that exprcssos tho full moaning, for tho simple reason that no suoh organiza tion was over before known in tho history of tho world. Tho Standard Oil is not only a monopoly, but an utterly unscrupulous, conscienceless combination ,of commercial buccanoers. Composed of soulless corporations, its his. tory proves it to bo totally dovoid of princi ple, blind to everything but dollars, deaf to everything but the clink of gold. It is born not only of monopoly, but Iniquity. Who will givo it a naino 't BTJEIAL BEFOBH. Tho proposed Burial Beform Association certainly has much to commend it. What with exorbitant Undertakers' bills and tho prevailing ostentation at funerals, dying has become very expensive. v Such extravagant expenditure serves no good purpose. It is opposed by clergy tvnd church. Only tho undertakers, tho floriulV, ihehackmen, tho monument makers and a senseless fashion favor the lavish display. With the poor the funeral expenses aro a very serious matter. The draft upon their slender nieaiu is often made at a tiino when they aro least ablo to bear it. Itisavorj coiumon case for a poor woman to lose tho' mainstay of her support, and then to bo heavily involved in debt by tho funeral. Ilespoct for the dead should not bring needless suffering to the living. The Harvard football team protests that it has not protested the recent game in this city, but does not protest that it will not pro. tost horeaf tor "at tho proper timo and placo." Better reserve it till tho next game is played, and then try and leavo the other fellows to protest. A Baltimore man mentions tho "good wator" of that city as ono of tho inducements to call the National Presidential Convention there. Ho must be thinking of th,o Prohibi. tionists the " temperance Republicans " have no use for water at such a time. Oh. not It cannot bo that Hisoocx and Belden are out. Tho Senator could novor distrust nor Viarrel with a truly good politi cian who has just received the vindication of a popular majority to Congross ten times as big as some of Hisoocx's own. The ridiculous use made of tho word " lady " receives it latest illustration in the challenge of tho " champion female athlete of America," who expresses a willingness to "moet tho Pittsburg lady at any time and place sho may liamc." At lost uccounts the Administration was not chasing Commissioner . Ellsbx Andxbsom around Washington with a roiVhot iron outliuing tho brand of "Traitor." Henut Gkoeuk announces that ho will not retire from politics. Politics seems, how ever, to havo retired from Uxnbx GEomoE to a very considerable extent. The General Term Judges must join the public in concluding that "the law" is, like tho proverbial white .man, "nilghxy onsartin." If Sullivan and Mitcuxll really moot for " business," politics and publio affairs will suffer a temporary eclipse in England. The people find it very difficult to retain their respect for the law sometimes, but they try hard to do it. Jacob Shabp's bail should be high anough to make his selection of a foreign home very expensive. The boo'dlers In Sing Sing and tho exiles in Canada must envy " the old man " his luck. Jakes J. Belsen is a very kind-hearted man and on excellent legal adviser of counsel. It is slow work making bribery dangerous in this town. m a, . thrilling story in The Wobld to-morrou fteningt " Tho JkviP Card; or,Xot so Mack atTaWtd," SHOPWOMINTHECOUNTliY. f.

Inrrciii, to Tns itobi.d.I Fateiison, N. J., Nov. 2'J. A further investigation by n Would 'reportt r Into tho buslnoss of distributing city Hhop work through Passaio nud adjoining counties has rovealcd a steadily increasing business, tho extont of which few people reallzo. Now points of distribution aro lielng ostahlishod, and moro agents aro being employed in this now phaso of women's labor. Thoughtlessly, no doubt, at first, the stout, healthy fanners wives aud daughters were led into a compn. titlou against their less fortunato sisters in tho largo commercial centres. Although tho city woman littlo suspected it, tho reason why tho shop work manufacturer has been enabled to continuously cut down her muagro weekly pittance, it has been bocauso ho hud led tho women in the country to compete against her. ADVANTAOES ALL ON ONE SIDE. In this strife tho advantages aro nearly all upon ono sido and against the shop girls in tho cities, who are compollod, by advorso circumstances, to labor at shop work for a livelihood. With them it is a desperate hand-to-mouth struggle for the absolute necessi ties of life. To them the landlord comes around with tho first day of the month. A few cents' reduction in the price paid for "finishing", a dozen shirts or waists means an anguish that no one can reallzo who has not been in want. Not fancied want, but tho want of warmth, food, shelter or sufficient clothing to go about in to perform daily labor. The city woman Is compelled to live in tho house of many floors and many occupants. Hor quarters aro narrow and dark. Thopilo of fuel necessary to kcop them habitublo is jealously watched for fear of waste. How ilifforent it is in tho country ! There, largo, airy rooms, with the pnro sunlight streaming in through ninny windows, and a bright, glowing fire sending forth amnio heat and oheerfulness. In most of the houses visited thoro wore twoor moro work ers busy. Their merry laugh and happy mien wero in striking contrast to tho appear anco and circumstances of those whom they wore forcing to greater distress. No rent to Iiay, no added fuel to buy, a man or boy to ceop the tiro going aud bring in the wood or coal. Evory flash of tho busy littlo needle and evory turn of tho unwinding spool of thread meant smidlcr wages for thoso, women like them. Bisters in want, who, for reasons of various causes, w ero compelled to compete against health and strength, which must in tho end drivo poverty to tho wall. TOE PIONEERS IN THE DUSINES8. The pioneers in this country branch.of shop work, so far as can bo learned, were Levi A Price, New York manufacturers, who built a mill in Patorson about fifteen years ago. Patorson was selected because of tho large number of farmers who visit it weokly the year around to market their produce, which is sold on tho open street or delivered to privato customers. In most of theso farm wagons a wife or daughter is sure to be found, She can stay in tno wagon while the fanner carries away his goods. The Manhattan Shirt Mills, as Lovfit Frico called their now venture, wus built in River street, through which most of the farmers drive to tho Main street market. Signs of inducement wore hung out to tho country people, and the market wagons soon bogan to stop at tho shirt mill on their way home, until twenty at a timo could bo counted thoro on a big market day. A littlo work was given, to bo returned tho noxt woek. The farmers' wives and daugh ters told others, aud the new source of rev enuo became county talk. Driving through tho country to-day, it 1b no uncommon sight to see boforo each win dow of a farm-house n woman or girl biuy working with a Howing.raachino. If tho vis. itor will entor the houso ho will find them working on shirts or waists. When spoken to they say manufactured, or as they term it, " boughtcn " things aro prettier than home, made. They say that by doing shop work they got money to buy what they want. NOT EOU A LIVINO, DDT POR LUXURIES. In some cases tho work is dono to really earn a living, but in most cases this is not true in the country, whore the husbaitds or fathers of tho workers own their homes, and where the expenses aro met by monoy from tho outside work. The World reporter in this travels was shown a sot of furniture a new carpet, a set of curtaius, and, in ono case, u wedding out fit bought by money earnod at shop work. One woman said that her husband had more than 1,000 saved up to build a houso. and sho was working to got money " to furnish it nice." In another instonoe the man possessed property that could bo sold for $15,000. His wifo was working at the machine to buy a Bet of fine curtains for her parlor. Levi Jk Prico, after threo years, separated. Tho original plant was kept by Levi A Vechslor. They havo 120 families stopping at thoir mills for work, and many or tho farm-wagons on the market will bo found to carry a bundle of finished shirts to be left at tno mills on the way home, as tho farmers ooiuo to Paterson in tho middle of the night. It was found necessary to have lnUructors and distributors in the now work to teach and supply new hands and thoso who can not drive to Paterson. Mon were taken to tho factory, and taught tho quickest and best way of doing tho work. Then thoy were w nt out as agents for tho firm. They now have two of theso who arie through three coun ties. UOW ONE AGENT WORKS IT. David AUen, ono of the men, lives on tho lino between tho States of New Jersey and New York, which gives him a central location l'or tho two connties of Bergen and ltoek htnd, through which he works. He has several machines at his homo where ho will teach beginners until they are competent to tuko shop work homo HohaBtuught num bers of others at their homes. Creating a demand for sewing.maohinos, ho added iui agency for them to his other work. His home at Chestnut Ridgn is fourteen miles from Paterson. Ho works as far us Nyaok, eleven miles beyond. Ho gets his shirts from Patersou, all cut out and partly bow od together. At tlrbt ho gao a shirt to ono woman to complete But now, ho says, ho subdivides tho work, giving one tho bosom to sew in, another the neck bauds and wrist bands to sew on, and a third the bottonholes and hems to make. This, ho claims, makes experts in their lines and expedites matters much. lie handles as high as 3,800 shirts a week. Ho has morn than three hundred women employed. Some of these' do little, and very few as much ai they can. He said that he had ono girl who earned If 0 n eek, but he refused to give the prices that ho paid. Ho has had to struggle for his work anil to keep his territory. During the past summer R. II. Macy A O.I., of Fourteenth street. New York, opened u tactory in Nyack and placed it iu charge of Mik Wood. A wagon route was started, and work was distributed by agents, but tho factory was closed this fall. Honry B. Rothschild, of West Broadway, Kliugnnsteln Bros., of 81 Walker stieet, Myer drams, of Walkor street, Litchoustein A Lyon, and Miller .1 Son, all of New York, also established agents Mr. Allen's field includes the towns of BpriugVdlley, Monscy, Tear! River, Clarks ville, Bardon, Blauvoltsvllle, Nyack, Pier mont and Tappan in Rockland Couuty, New Yorix, and Park Ridge, Mont Vale, River Vale, Paskack, Hillsdale and West Wood hi Bergen County, New Jersey. This season he i will have a man to drivo about? for him. Ho does not work on salary. ANOTHER FIELD Of COMPETITION. . John Remseu, tho second out-door agent, is paid a fixed salary. He lives in Paterson. He drives a double team, and is on the road five days iu the week. Ills best route, he says, is in Bergen aud Rockland counties, along the line of tho Erie Railroad to Suffems, twenty miles from Paterson. In this drivo ho distributes in tho towns of Riversido, Ridgenood, HohokuB, Allendale, Raniseys and Mahwah. Ho stays at Snffcrus all night, and crossing tho mountains, as it is called, at Masonirus, and returns to Pater, son by way of the towns of Campgan, Wyckoff, Wortondyko and Midland Park. Another trip is west of Paterson, through Passaio County and tho towns of Fompton, Prcikuess, Bloomfield and Butler. A third routo is by way of Clifton. Lako View, Passaic, Franklin and Belleville to Newark, Uicro the firm opened a branch os. tablishment a year nud n half ago. This'wns done. they, wild, to catch tho, country vor!c. ers. Newark being another largo market cen tre for fanners for miles around iu all direc tions. Remsen said that ho supplied about two hundred hands. This, with the number who work for Allen and those who work directly for tho mills, shows about how many country women are employed by this firm alone in 'competition with the shop girls of Now York. THE BOY PIANIST. Any one who wants to make a success u a planlut nowadays must posted exceptional ability, fur there Is no iDttromoDt on this earth that bis been o fatally abused, anil of which people are becom ing so Intolerant. Who has cot suffered from the cxqulalto sngnlih of tl-.e "lnalructlon book" with its hideous " Leila's a Ltily, ' ' The birlss Boy and "Cherry Illpe"? Who has not wept the scalding tears of bitter illitreas as he listened to tho practtilng of some mliguldcd maiden, and cutscd tho days when pianos wero Invented? Ah I the piano Is frequently cruel, often detpUcd of men, aud always looked upon with distrust. In tho salon It Is the accompaniment to conversation; In the hotel it la th terror of the guests; In the home It Is iluiplr tragic. Yet at WallacK's yesterday afternoon a tiny boy, clad In a aallor's salt, with plump face of bread-and-butter health and an expression ot childish satisfaction, sat down to one of the hackneyed In struments, and In less than an hour had roused a thoroughly critical andlcnoo to wonderful enthu slusm. Youns; Josef Hofmsun, extensively advertised by Mr. Henry E. Abbey as the musical marvel ot the use, give a private concert to tho press and Mr. Abbey's friends. The result snowed that nothing had been exaggerated about the child, and that ho Is Indeed simply a musical marvel. I hate gushing In tho superlative, but frankly I must say that I have never heard little Hofmann's playing surpassed. It Is magnificent. lie gave Mendelssohn's " Hondo Caprtccloso " superbly. (I don't think I've used that superlative before). Hut be was most successful In one of Chopin's waltzes an extremely dimcult one. Ills execution was extremely brilliant, his touch stuccata and sure, and his rendition absolutely correct. Nothing better oould have befln heard. If young Hofmann clayed only this wsltz he would lie worth paying to hear. I'apa Cassemer Hofmann did some vartt ttons on a theme by Beethoven, arranged by Saint Saens, with tho boy, and though a duet is not muc h of a teat as to the ability of either one of the pla.vers, it was evident that younj Josef did some extt emely effective work. lis also played a mazouriaand polonitse of his own composition, of whlcYt It Is not necessary to ssy very much. Then Rui'olph Aronion blushlngly suggested ten bars or so or, his exquisite two-by-the-hour waltzea and yoa'ng Hofmann elaborated upon It In a truly artlsUc manner, while tno audience went wild with de light. After the recital I spoke to young Hofmann, but found he was too young and Innocent to be Inter viewed. IIo didn't even know enough to say that he lovod America and the dear Americans, and was oh I so glad to be here. Alan Dale.

He was fresh from the salt fields of Onondaga County, and had been appointed through the influence of a country Senotor.

Week To.Nlght-Tbe Strange Dlanppenrnnce of a. Hhop.Uu-l-Did She Wnllt Into tbe Illror by Accident f-Onee In Illoonilncdale, but nelleved to Have Vally Kecevered Her Mental Ilraltb. Tho mystery surrounding tho disappear- " nnce of pretty Mary J. Lynn, is to-day as deep ns ever. It is just rt week to-night since , the girl bade hor slstor good night and i Btortod for tho Seventh Avenue United Pros.- 4 byterian Church. Since that time; kindred J aud friends have discovered nothing of her 1 whereabont.8. The theory was first advanced j that she had fallen into evil hands, but that' k theory has graduolly given way to pothers, equally plausible perhaps, but alike fruitless. , Miss Lynn was young, modest, intelligent j and unassuming, with a round, pretty face, big eyf s nnd n lot of wavy, brown hair. She lived with her parents nt 253 West Twenty first street, and was employed atLe Boutilller Brothers'. West Twenty-thlrd street. She was nlwnys full of fun and was always willing to share another's burden, how ovor heavy it chanced to be. . . Threo years ago the young girl overworked herself, nud as a consequence was stricken with malaria, her brain was affected and she spent n icriod in tho Bloomingdale Asylum. After herdischargo all her old animation soeiuod to return, and no indications wero noticed of aberration of mind. ' , Tuesday evening Miss Lynn left home to ' visit her sister, Mrs. Fanny Kennedy, who lives at BU West Twenty-first street. She re. lnained thero some timo, and about 8 o'clock stnrted for church to attend the singing, school.whithor her sister Kate had previously gone. The missing girl was very religious and was exceedingly interested iu her Sunday, school class, as well as in hor musical work. Tho girl novor reached the church. Anxious, yot nof dreaming of what had happened, Kuto hurried home, oxpocting to find her sister there,, but she had not mado her ap pearanoo ; and from that hour father, mother and friends have been waiting, with an ever- ' increasing heart sickness, for some messago from the missing ouo. When Mary left her sister's sho was in good health, physically and mentally. Policemen ou duty that night in the neighborhood say thoro wero no suspicious persons around there nor did they hear of any accident. Tho entire police forco has been notified to look out forkthe girl, and tho citv hospitals have been searched but nothing has been learned. ' Whore Mrs. Kennedy lives is but a short distance from the' North River, and friends fear that iu a moment of excitement the girl may have become confused, turned down tho street towards the water instead of in the other diroction, and, before Bhe was aware of it, stepped to death in the river. Her out. crieslor help in that deserted district might well beunheard. So strongly is this theory entertained that guards have been stationed along shore, and the work of dragging tho river is proposed. Tho pleasant apartments occupied by Mrs. Lynn nave now more the appearsneo of a house where n woke is in progress than any- i thing else, though, as one gray haired friend 1 said, " If it were a wako one would know I what to do and what one was doing ; as it is, - though, how tornblo is it." " Xhe mothor and father, haggard and care, worn, pace tho narrow roomB incessantly. At each tiuglo of the bell they start, hoping that it moy be the forerunner of welcome news concerning tho missing daughter. When last seen the missing girl wore a dark cheviot dress, with light colored waist, trimmed with blue braid ; a black, jacket, a and a felt hat, trimmed with blue and white 1 ribbon. S a , j BRUSSELS NET AND BULLION. 1 The Dress Designed to do Killing: Work for , n. Mnrrlcd Belle Iu Washington. ; A gorgeous gown, fresh from the skilful j fingers of one of Gotham's artistes modistes, j and designed to do killing work this winter in Woshington, is made of blaok Brussels net, richly embroidered in bullion and col ored, silks, draped over black moire antique This embroidery is dull rather than showy, . snd suggestive of none of the vulgarity of the gold lace and cheap tinsel effects now seen on many costumes, but it gathers all tho light into itself and flings it back with a sort oil glow as lovely as it is indescribable. The long train of moire is bordered with full soft plisse supples of plain Brussels net. a tiny sacho of tho net finished the edge ot the moire petticoat, but the drapery is en. tirely of the embroidered Brussels net and caught on the left hip in tho graceful fashion , known as a "Marguerite," it falls in glitter, ing waves to tho feet and is again drawn softly back undor the folds of the rich train. j The pointed corsage is half of moire, half ' of net, has a narrow " V " of tho embroidery, 1 and a Berthe of tho plain Brussels net is oar, riod in soft folds overthe shoulders and down to a sharp, close point between the shoulders. Tho modest price paid for this charming creation by a married belle was $375, tho Sieoe of embroidered net which formed tho rapery alone being estimated at $250. '; Written On Hotel Register. 1 Col.
