Rev. Father Richie is rector, has adopted a

Lotteries IN the Mails.

Postmaster General Gresham has decided
TO follow the precedent OF Judge Key in pro-
hibiting lotteries the use of the mails. There
can be no doubt, he says that the order
issued by Key to the postmasters Of New
Orleans in November, 1889. was clearly JUS
titled by the revised statutes. The only ques-
ton in connection with it that could be i'll.
dicially examined, relates to the power of
congress to confer upon him the power
under which he acted. But the supreme
court affirmed the CONSTITUTE onality of the
act tor6idding lottery companies the use Of
the mails, and hence he sees no reason for
revoking the original order. The present
decision, however promises to be merely
the forerunner of others that the postmaster
general will be called upon to make. The
opponents of the Louisiana State Lottery
company are preparing for now assault
and We will ask that all newspapers con-
tanning lottery advertisements be pro bib.
tied from passing through the mails. ID

The fame of the hanging gardens of
Babylon has lived through the ages.
What an extraordinary scheme it would
be- TO have one under the Brooklyn
bridge! Or perhaps it would be better
to have a couple, with space left be-
tween. midway of the bridge, for the
convenient passage of tall masted ships,
Two hanging beer gardens, so placed,
would assure the fortune of any publ
can who might succeed in obtaining
permission for their establishment.
The bridge, when completed, will
be q wonderful spectacle. especially at
night. From certain positions, such as
the track ofthe South Ferry for instance
almost its entire stretch Of one mile will
be visible, and the electric lights, close
ly dottihg it, will stand out against the
sky at night in vast bow Of splendid
fire. To sit beneath it in q we'll appoin-
ted hanging beer garden, to hear the
rush Of travel overhead, to be famed by
unhindered breezes from the bay, and
to mark the sweep of masts and sails
and cordage past the open windows
would be to experience combination
of sensations at once remarkable and
not very likely to be afforded in precise
Iy the manner named.
