The AMERICAN RIFLE TEAM have arrived
more enthusiasm than marked their arrival in
Dublin. This energetic Irish town never
does anything by halves. and, having made
up its mind to welcome the Americans, did so
right royalty. The members Of the team ore to

having visited the various places of interest
nc doubt hearty welcome awaits them. Our

their visit to Ireland, for it has been to them

Drowned at Roohaway.

The loss of life which annually occurs at
ought to compel some action on the part Of
the local authorities looking to the better
security of bathers. On Sunday last three
persons were drowned at Rocka way Beach
because there was no provision made for
accidents that experience should have taught
lady was suddenly swept from among her
friends by the waves and drowned before as
sistance could reach her. One of her male
friends who had calamity gone to her rescue
was himself seen to sink when a second
brave man went to his friends rescue While
these two battling for life were being car
ried away third man swum out, but before he
could reach his friends they too were en-
quilted, and had not help reached the third
man il is probable a fourth life would
have been lost. John Gossmer. and
William Goodhlll, who nobly sacrificed
their lives in the cause of humanity,
deserve to be remembered as heroes;
but what can bo said in defence of those
bathing house keepers who knowing the
danger of the beach, take no precautions to
save life Not boat was at hand, not even
a rope was cast to the men struggling for
life and perishing in view of hundreds.
The Coroner's inquest, as is too frequently
the case in America, was simply farce, in
which the Coroner covered up as much as
possible the shortcomings of his friends and
Oai0hbors

THE DmEcToEs of the National Rife Asso-
citation, at their meeting yesterday, passed q
vote of thanks to the members of the Amer
lean team for the self-sacrifce and skill they
displayed during their visit to Ireland. Ar
range1nents were made for the fall meeting
and some changes proposed which viii meet
with general approval. The proposition to
invite teams of twelve from all the States To
shoot at Creedmoor deserves attention and
support. 1t would tend greatly to nationalize
Creedmoor and make it truly what il aims to
be-the American Wimbledon.

SLBBPI-Ho1Low JoURNALIsM.-T Eng
lish tory organ has lasled itself into n fury
over the American celebration of the Fourth
of July in London. The fact is, this organ
has forgotten how long it is since the battle
of Bunker Hill. II is well known that the
gentlemen who write for the Standard live in
a kind of political ''Sleepy Hollow, and
probably one of the venerable tories who re-
members "When George was King" suddenly
woke up in his editorial chair 10 learn that
the Americans were celebrating Independence
Day in the heart Of London. Naturally the
good old man forgot oil the intervening years
OF bis political dotage and fred redhot shot
into the rebels Of Charlestown Harbor. We
who have been awake and marching onward
for these hundred years can well afford to
smile at the vituperative bitterness OF this old
tory. Poor old fellow he's got his feelings,
and we must respect them. But we must re-
mind the younger tories that it is o hundred
years well told since we expostulated with
their great grandiathers at Bunker Hill

Athletic Humanity.

There is o story about the drowning of a
member of one of the Harlem boat clubs cir
culating in the city which demands strict in
vestigation. The story goes that young
man ventured into the river to battle from one
of the boat houses on the river, although not
an expert swimmer, relying on the presence
of some score OF his club comrades to help
him in case of need. The man almost i'm
mediately sank, and, though he was almost
within ON oar length Of the boat house, he
was allowed to drown, without any serious
effort being made to save him. 1t is further
stated that looking on at the struggles of
the drowning man were men whose
pride it is TO be athletes, and aquatic
athletes at that. Some names ore
given of men famous as oarsmen, and several
are mentioned who claim to be champion
swimmers, yet not one of these athletic
champions had courage enough or humanity
enough to jump into the water and stretch
out o saving hand to the poor wretch strug-
Cling for life within few feet of his friends
and comrades. Is it then true that athletic
sports merely make finer animals of those
who practise them, but exercise no elevatlng
influence on the mind? Had score of
pigInies witnessed the death struggle OF one
OF their own kind they would have made
some effort to save tho unfortunate. What,
then, can be said of this score of champions,
who saw q fellow creature perish without
making an effort to save him, but that among
o score OF athletes there was not one man2

The TOTAL VALUATION Of real and personal
property in the city of New York this year
is, in round numbers, one thousand one hun
bred and one million dollars. The total APP
preparations for the annual expenses Of the
city government amount to thirty-eight mill
ion dollars. This is subject to a reduction
of three millions, paid out Of the city revenue.
But the gross rate Is more than three dollars
and forty-fve cents on each one hundred
dollars of valuation. That is to say, per-
son who owns house valued at twenty
thousand dollars will have to pay this year,
less the trihe of city revenue, six hundred
and ninety dollars for tho expenses of Comp
