•Are you going for a ride''

is the :nost^fr«quent

Question- heard at the Motor Boat and Sportsmen's

Show at the Garden. The lake, which takes upnearly all th» main floor, furnishes room for afer,- of the r.-.otor h^ats to speed at the satr.^ timeand gives a 'good opportunity of showing whatthe. boats can do. Another lar?e crowd gatheredat the show throughout the day yesterday, and inthe evening th*> throng became even greater. Itwas with difficulty that the spectators forced theirwav about, and from the way the exhibitors of the.many motor boats were k»pt busy it was evidentthat the boats are coming- In for the biggest shareof Interest.

Captain Stephen Van All^n. th*- rifle shot arrest-ed on Wednesday on a charge of violating the pro-visions of the sanitary code, was discharged byMagistrate Hammer In the Jefferson Market Courtyesterday, and was back trivinghis clever perform-ances, last evening, but he was not shooting anymore glass balls from the mouth of his assistant.

When the roundsman who made the arrest toldof this feat the magistrate said: "Ishould say

that it was a violation. Ishould think that itwould upset the nervous systems of the spectators

to watch such a dangerous exhibition."Van Allen invited Magistrate Flammer to come

up to the Garden and see how harmless his featswith the rifle were, but the magistrate- did not

show any enthusiasm over the Idea.Frederick W. Vanderbilt bought a 32-foot elec-

tric launch from the Electric Launch Company

yesterday. Th order calls for a boat of specialdesign, finished in mahogany, with a low Venetiancabin. It will be taken to his summer home in theAdirondack?.

Bcov»l, the. memberof the New-Jersey House from Cannden, has Intro-duced a ne;v bin, known M Assembly Bill No. 92,which completely changes the aspect of affairs inNew- Jersey.

This bill subjects the automobllist to a fine orimprisonment, or both, and to arrest without war-rant upon any violation of the automobile law,nch aa th*- omission of the proper number, the

failure to parry tho r.um'r»r both front and back.as well as any excess of the speed limitations.

<">n February 21 ?.?r. Scovel. in the absence of the••ther members of the committee, to which ft wasreferred, brought the bill out and passed it to a-fcond reading, and it comes up for Ha third andfinal reading next Monday.

Not only automobttiats but automobile manu-facturers, of which there are a large number in

New-Jersey. ~>v> viewing this proposed facing aboutof the State on the automobile finestion with alarm.They are universally protesting against the actionof Assemblyman Scorel In bavins this billbroughtout and marked as reported favorably in the fa-e ofthe requests for a hearing which had been madefrom various parts of the St;ite and receive,' by th*committee. Otner members <\u25a0>( the committee say

tnat they h-id no notice of the fact that the bill wasto be brought out, and that no meeting of the com-mitt«e was held. Mr. Scovel relies upon the writ-ten approval of three of the seven members of thecommittee for his action.

The bill does not recognize a license granted inany other State: it chan?°s the permanent licensenow granted to an annual license, which 'must berenewed, subjects the owner of a car to arrest ifhefails to take out a new license iWore a year expiresfor his old license, and raises the registration feefrom the payment of $1 for the permanent licer.seto an annual charge of J.l.

The billgoes so far as to provide that the "owner«hall not place- any other murk of identity upon thesaid motor vehicle" except the number of the Statelicense. Autontobillsts protest that this will obligethem to ta..- oft even the teplate of the manu-facturer.

The ground of protest most strongly urged is thatany constable or police officer is autnortsed toarrest Without warrant persons violating any ofthe provisions of this bill, and further that aperson convicted of any violatloE of any of the pro-visions of the act may be not only fined, but cisoiinprisoned, or suffer both fine and imprisonment, inthe discretion of the Justice before whom he is ar-raigned.

There is likeiv to be a large body or automo'oillst.ogathered at Trenton next Monday. The various au-tomobile clubs are corresponding with their mem-bers, and there are in the St.-ite of New-Jersey to-•lay registered more than eight thousand automo-biltsts.

A well known automobile manufacturer in New-Jersey said that perhaps it was very fortunate forthe. automoblllsts that this discussion had come atthis time, as it might serve to unite them. Therewas noreason for the proposed amendment, he said,as there had been no complaints in the State forviolation of the automobile law. excepting fromSouth Jersey, and those complaints were limited tothe line of the road from Philadelphia to AtlanticCity, which some Philadelphian had used as a race-course.

Operated on for Appendicitis on Wednesday—Peritonitis Set In.

At the house. No. 16 East 79th-st., of SidneyDillon Ripley. who was operated on for appendi-citis, it was said last night that Mr. Ripley's con-dition was extremely critical. His physician wasin constant attendance. At midnight the physicianthought it might be advisable to perform anotheroperation, but the patient was too weak. Thecries is rapidly approaching, It was said, and achange was expected in th<- course of the night.

On Tuesday Mr.Ripley complained of a pain in theabdomen. In the night he suffered so much that hisdoctor was summoned shortly before 6 o'clock. OnWednesday morning it was decided that an opera-tion must be performed at once. This was done.It w«s found that peritonitis had set in. Mr. Rip-ley is a director in the Equitable L,ife AssuranceSociety and a member of the fnion. Meadow Brookand other clubs and the Chamber of Commerce. Heis a brother-in-law of James Hazeu Hyde.

Rear Admiral Co^hlan said that Admiral Deweywas "A perfect book of lectures on being ready forthe next move." and went on:

He never gee more thought to a move than hedid to the en', 'ring of Manila Bay. and to him be-longs all th* credit of its success. We went tomett an untried foe. who in former battles had?Jway« given a go-ad account of themselves, andthey fought as bravely as men could do. but afterthat battle their spirit for fighting was gone. •Idon't wish to belittle the battle of Santiago, butthose people came out to be whipped, and theywere whipped before they.got out.

Ex-Governor Campbell, Stewart I* Woodford.Moiifignor Vay de Vaya. Nicola Tesla and JudgeTruax also spoke. Perry Belmont. Mrs. Rhine-lander Waldo and Mr. and Mrs. John H. Hananwere alto present. *S. D. RIPLEY'S CONDITION CRITICAL.

When th* time for the speeches came, a letterfrom Admiral Dewey was r«-ad, in which he said:Iam writingin bed. where Ihave been for three

wc^ks. The odds ar« too long .where a man under-takes to right grip. Igo softly. It comes with abig stick. Great regards to you all. and love forRobert B. Roosevelt.
