Ex-Governor
JOEL PARKER,

confident OF winning with. Although he has re-

that the Convention Will insist upon his acceptance
of the nomination. After him Perry has undoubt-
edly the greatest strength. Judge Bede's chances

PROSPECT PARK.

Finnnces-IIuclSs Returning frcm Funerals
Not Prohibited from Going Through the
Park.
The regular monthly meeting OF the Brooklyn
Board Of Park Commissioners was held last evening
at the headquarters of that department, corner of
Court and Scnermerhorn Streets President James
s. I. Stranahan In the chair. The report of the
regular officers were received and placed
on file 1t was shown that there Is $500, 900
remaining to the credit Of the Park Commissioners
from which amount IL was resolved 10 draw
Sloo,OoO 70 proceed with the work. reduction OF
the laborerS and engineers Iorce was also de.
tcrmined upon by the meeting. The proprety OF
permitting nacks returning RON funerals at Fiat.
bush by way Of Prospect PARK was raised by Mr..
Sranahar and was discussed at some length.
The objection 10 this route being taken
lay IN the alleged annoyance caused through
the reckless driving OF inebriate Jehus on
the other hand IT was deemed as well TO allow
coacnes returning from funerals to drive through
the Park and enable occupants to enjoy the beau
ties Of The public pleasure ground for which they
nave oeen so heavily taxed. 1t was finally agreed
that they might drive that route in small groups.
Having thus CONSIDERABLY agreed to permit the
people TO drive over the grounds which they here
tofore supposed theirs to enloy without dispute
the meeting adjourned.

LIFE Insurance AND SUICIDE
Judge Miller of the United States Court
in aa action brought against an insurance
company to recover the amount insured
on the life of person who had committed
suicide, ruled that proof of insanity lay
on the plaintiff, for suicide in itself was
no proof of mental alteration. The act
of suicide must be shown TO be the result
of insanity. The party must have been
moved to the act by an impulse that be
could not resist. II such state of mind
existed, the company must be held liable;
but if the party, in the exercise of his Or
binary faculties, had become angry, ex-
cited or distressed, so that he preferred
death to life, the act of suicide was his
own, and the company could not be held
liable. The jury rendered a verdict
against the company. E..... =.

but the carriage was pretty thoroughly
wrecked.
