What it Cost to Expedite"
N. Y. Tribune.


Mr.. Cook, formerly one of the Gov
eminent counsel for the prosecution OF
the Star reuters, declares that he re-
signed from the case because "the
prosecution were not taking proper
steps to secure necessary new evidence"
and he predicts that the trial will end
in a fizzle. He does not think that
even the admission CT Walsh's testi-
mony will exercise any serious influence
upon the general issue. At the best Tor
worst it is liable to iDjure only Brady.
Mr.. Walsh swore that when he called
upon General Brady for settlement OF
their financial accounts, the latter I'M
deriook to explain to him the true IN
wardness of the Star service system.
General Brady had expedited route
for Walsh, and claimed bonus of $47,-
600 on the profits of the operation for
three years. If the same percentage
was levied all around, it is easy to I'M
derstand how General Brady could be-
come wealthy on a picayune salary of
IS 500 a year.
The bulk of the expediting referred
to took place In the western States,
termed the Pacific section by the Post
Office Department. An official report
was issued yesterday in Washington,
showing the present cost of Star service
in the Pacific as compared with the
cost year ago. Here is the marrow
of the exhibit:
Annual cost June 30, 1881. 81 ,01e .s24.0o
Annual cost July l, 1882 .......... 2,0ls $500
Annual cost per mile, June 80, 1881. 1882
Annual cost per mile July /, 1882. T.s2
This is clear saving of two millions
in an expenditure of four millions, and
it may reasonably be inferred that
better service is rendered from the
smaller sum than was ever supplied
for the larger.
Now, if General Brady received a
''divvy" on $1,000. 600, uniform with his
assessment of $47 900 on Walsh's $780,
600, his annual tribute must have been
about 100000, which would leave a
very handsome margin after paying the
fees of the friends of the cause in
Congress.

As THE WIND BLOWS.

The wind b lws north, the wind blows sout
The wind blows east and west
No matter how the free winds blow,
Some ship viii find it best;
Some one out on the wild. wide sea,
Shouts with happy air,
" Ho, shipmates, no! set all the sails,
The wind is blowing fair"
One ship sails out into the east,
Another to the west
One has to struggle fierce and hard,
By winds and waves oppressed,
Under bare masts, tossed to and fro,
By rain aud salt spray wet;
The other flies before the gale
With all her white sails set.
o wind, 0 wind. why dost thou blow.
And out 70 ocean roar,
When / would steer my little bark,
Toward some pleasant shore
What honor will it be to thee
If down beneath the wave
My simple craft and / shall End
A cold, forgotten grave 9"
% foolish one, why wilt thou steer
Against ths mighty gale!
There are ten Thousand ships atioat
BESIDES thy tiny sail.
If thou would float DER pleasant seas,
Oppose my will no more;
When / blow shoreward, then do thou
Sail also to the shore.
Yet if thy viii with mine must strive,
Do then the bes. thou can;
Against my might set all thy skill.
And fight me like man.
Stand by the wheel, steer steadily,
Keep watch above, below;
Such hearts will make the port they seek,
No matter what winds blow"

Plucky Tillie Timrble.

New ork Star.
Brooklyn girls are noted for their
pluck, and among the pluckiest is Miss
Title Trimble of No. 80 Fourth place.
who is 19 years of age. On Monday
afternoon, while in charge of the house,
desiring to go on an errand, she care
fully locked the doors, and upon her
return was surprised that the front
door had been broken open. As she
passed into the parlor she saw a man
ransacking bureau. Quietly she stole
into the basement, sent a servant for
an officer and then ran nimbly up
stairs. Gliding softly behind the
stranger she threw her arms around
his neck, shouting in the meantime to
give further alarm. The man did all
he could to throw her off, but without
success, and having dragged her to the
basement, was endeavoring to throw
her over the balusters, when Officer
Cassidy arrived. Miss Title then re-
leased her grip. The burglar made
another attempt at liberty by dashing
for the staircase and trying to. trip up
Cassidy, but the policeman was too
quick for him. The fellow fought
wildly, but was brought into submission
by rap from the officers club, and
the "nippers" having been placed
around his wrist, he was marched to
the Butler street police station. Here
he refused to give his name, and told
the old story of being "hard up" and
having to steal to procure food: Cap
tain Leavy, while talking with the
prisoner, saw that he was making an
effort to hide something which he had
taken from his poket. He seized the
thiefs hand and drew from it two skel-
eton keys which had picklocks on each
end. On being further searched sew
eral articles of jewelry belonging to
Miss Trimble were found in his pocket.
These evidences of his guilt having
been discovered, the prisoner gave his
name as David Henry and said he lived
ut No. 147 Main street, Williamsburg.
AS there is no Main street in that sec
ton of Brooklyn, Captain Leavy be
lieves the nam given to be an assumed
one, and has set man to work up the
burglars history.
