Pistojese legends, and l am often comforted
to think of it. There were once two sisters
and brother. The brother became friar,
one sister also took to the religious life, and
became a nun; but the other one married, be-
came mother of a large family and had hard
life, like me, signs the P"vers, kissing the
tiny baby on her lap. The others used to
call her Sorrellacc., because she made no re-
ligious profession.
Once the brother came to See Der on Sun
day, and found her in her old gown, doing
Homework.
"Whatr' he cries, are you not going to

"To chureh3" she says "whos to cook
my husbands dinner, and feed the baby, and

THERE is still great excitement in Ireland
over the arrest of the three men charged with
ssdition. The Irish are arming everywhere,
and the arrest and trial of these men threat
ems to result in serious uprising. On Sun
day next mass meeting will be held at
Trafalgar Square and also at Glasgow to be
addressed by the leading speakers of the
country. Davitt, one of the arrested men,
telegraphs that he will be on hand to address
tbe Glasgow meeting. The police are stoned
in the streets, and the excitement is daily in
oreasing. 1t looks as if England had pushed its
tyrannies too far with the Irish people, and
that . serious war may grow out of the pres,
ent troubles The people of Ireland might
better die on the battle field crushed with de-
feat than longer suffer the mensterous oppres-
sions to which they have been and still are
subjected.

AMERICAN GRUB.

The good old custom of masticating thanks
giving dinners will be INDUCED in to-day AL
over the United States Pass the turkey,
cranberries and celery There has been con-
siderable of change in thanksgiving dinners
during the past few years. The old fashioned
and subtiantial dishes which adorned the feast
in New England quarter of a century ago,
have gradually given place to innovations from
the French, and on some tables the ostenta
tious and solidifed Engl sh plum pudding
freighted with prolonged indigestion and
frightful dreams, has dared to show itself
without an intelligent protestatlon from any
source. The writer once saw frogs served up
at q thanksgiving dinner in San Francisco, in

This resolution was offered by Mr.. Erhardt for the
purpose of making his colleagues ia the Police Board
individually responsible for all their actions ut the
meetings OF the Commissioners. AS it is at present
il Commissioner wishes to evade responsibility, all
he has to do is to offer whatever resolution he wishes
passed. without any Endorsement Consequently.
you can see that it would be very
hard to determine what particular resolutions
offered by any of the members or the Board
This Mr.. Erhardt saw. and he knew an attempt
would be made have certain measures put through
of which he did not all approve he accordingly in
troduced the resolution referred to. Although the
resolution brought up at successive meetings OF
the Police Commissioners 1t was not adopted. This
failure OF Commissioners Erhardt. together with his
inability to have certain other measures approved
of by his colleagues. has brought about the present
rupture between himself and the other members OF
the Board The Mayor cannot fail to take action
the charges. because they are broadly made and de-
nland an equally broad investigation or course.
Mayor Cooper will afford full opportunity TO Com
missioner Erhardt to snbstantiate his charges and
in they proved cant see how he can help
removing some OF the commissioners
on THE SUBJECT.
4 remarkable unanimity of sentiment seems to
exist among Tammany and anti Iammany poll,
ticans in reference to the matter. The action of
Commissioners Erhardt is regarded as an attempt on
the part Of that gentleman to have himself renom
mated by Mayor Cooper This, however is denied
by the friends of the Commissioners who state that
he would gladly resign his position and retire to
private life Thsy point to the lac that s ne mas been
gether with his colleagues, Messrs. Wheeler and
Nichols called upon to defend themselves from
the charges made by the excnief magistrate OF this
city, Smith Ely. Jr.
An intimate personal friend of Mr.. Erhardt said
yesterday that the Commissioner has become heartily
sick and tired of the way in which business is con
Quoted in the Police Department. and is determined
to have an investigation of its affairs by Mayor
Cooper. 1.-The fact is, continued this gentleman,
"Erhardt has come to me time and time again and
stated that he would rather resign his position than
become party to the way IN which the depsrtment
only restrained from giving up his Commission
ershp by the solicitations OF the leaders Of his party,
who were afraid that lukewarm republican would
be appointed to succeed him"

this legislation be effected through the Rapid Tran
sit Commission of ex- Mayor wickham. or whether
a new commission will be needed for this purpose,
il a grave legal question upon which there exists
diversity OF opinion. Accordingly the report states
that the committee have requested the Executive
Committee to solicit the Mayor TO obtain the opinion
OF the Corporation Counsel upon the question.
Ernest Hall said that, the contract to raise the
grade of Third from Harlem bridge to 147th
