Ready to BEAT" a Monopoly.
Fr0m tie Ne1o York Tribune,


Two young men came rushing up the
stairs and on TO the platform Of Third
avenue elevated station up town yester-
day. A train was just stopping and the
guards attention was taken up with
opening the exit gate. One of them threw
aticget hastily into the box. The other
made feint in the same direction, but
quickly closed his hand over his ticket.
Both passed into the train.
81 always try to beat a monopoly"
laughed the one, and his companion looked
the picture of disgust that he had not
thought of doing the same thing, "Last
year." the fare-jumper continued, 81 used
to 90 over to Brooklyn two or three times
a week, but / did not pay fare often this
side OF the bridge. All you have TO do is
TO watch your chance in the confusion
when train stops, and keep an eve on
the guard. Why, last year l carried one
ticket in my pocket till it positively was
worn out" and the successful swindler
laughed again as the train slowed up and
the brakeman called out Twenty third"

From the London Graphic.
1t is just as well that one of the yarns
about the enormous wealth of the Queen
should have met with authoritative refu-
tation. Among Radical spouters OF the
baser sort 1t is one OF the cOmmonest en-
bellishments Of oratory to point a moral
and adOrn a tale by contrasting the
Astounding riches of her Majesty with the
abject poverty of some virtuous cObbler
or tinker. OF course there is contrast,
but Sir Henry POnsOnby shows that the
royal millions which have figured in so
many indignant speeches are purely N.Y.
tnical. The particular fiction which called
forth this denial was, it appears, uttered
at a Liberal gathering by a gentleman
who aspires to a seat in Parliament, and
who should, therefore, have known better
than to juggle with big figures for
the entertainment Of The democracy.
He stated that the Queen had lately in
vested a million sterling in ground rents
in the city of London, and no doubt some
OF his audience were as much shocked to
hear it as If they had been told that the
sovereign had laid out a fine fortune on a
diamond studded chariot or something Of
that sort. Sir Henry Ponsonby shows.
however, that the statement has absolute
ly no foundation whatever. In the first
place, 1.-THE Queen possesses no property
at all in the city Of London" Secondly,
she has not inVes ted any money in ground
rents there or elsewhere. Thirdly, she
does not own million OF money. 1t ap-
pears. therefore, that the author Of the
"iam" IN question cleverly managed to
include three separate ictiOns in a single
brief statement. Should be accomplish
seat in Parliament lie will do we'll 10
make more certain of his facts, unless he
wishes 10 hear the very unpleasant sound
so trying TO the nerves and the temper
of a new member--Of derisive laughter.

World: Sis an original cOmedy-drama,
written expressly for Miss Myra Good
win, by the talented dramatist, Mr.. Ed
ward K. l&idder, was presented for the
FIRST time last evening at the Fourteenth
street theatre, and proved to be an un-
qualified success. The plot is an original
one. The acting Of Miss Goodwin Is art
lessness itself. In every respect she
assumes the character Of an amiable but
strong purpOsed girl, and she apparently
iorgets self, so thoroughly does she hide
herself in the character that has been
written for her. Her songs are sweetly
rendered, and her dancing is simply won
derful.

''There never was an election in Chat
ham county," remarked prominent local
politician, when the result was announc-
ed, shat was any harder fought than the
one to-day
When the polls opened at O'Clock
there were not more than so people about
the court house. The voting began slowly
and up to S O'Clock not over 70 votes had
been pOlled. About this time the negro
vote began to come in and for an hour
there was heavy rush. twas then that
the contest began in earnest. The work
ers OF the rival candidates lowered about
the polls and put out their best efforts.
There was not much dealing to be done
there were no candidates TO trade of and
the fight was on the basis OF the personal
qualities OF the two men and the doodle
they or their friends were willing TO put
up. There were no party politics in the
issue, and everybody qualified to vote did
so without regard 10 race, color, or previ-
Gus condition.
After the first rush was over the voting
continued steady through the remainder
OF the forenoon and up To 4 O'Clock in the
afternoon. At O'clock go votes had
been polled. From then until the polls
closed at O'Clock there was a crush.
Many business men had delayed voting,
thinking that there would be plenty Of
time late in the afternoon. The "bOOdle"
element had been hanging of for bids,
and all crowded in together at the last
moment. The result was that the man.
ayers were unable to handle the ballots
fast enough and the polls closed with
fully 200 voters blocked out.
The scenes IN the corridor and around
the ballot boxes during the last hour and
halt were exciting. 1t was impossible TO
keep the crowd back. The Sheriff and his
deputies did what they could TO preserve
order and keep the corridor passable, but
it was with great difficulty. There were
upwards OF 200 men in line crOwding to.
wards the polls, and a voter hardly had
time TO deposit his vote before he was
pushed aside and another was in his
place. The voting during the last half
hour was at the rate Of five minute.
Probably one-third Of the votes cast dur
ing that time were by negroes.
A few minutes before the polls were
closed some one in the crowd shouted
.'Six O'Clock" Immediately there was
rush for the ballot boxes. The Sheriff
aud his deputies stood by the side of the
line, but IN spite Of their efforts many
voters we're crowded out by the "manipu-
lators," and others were showed in their
places. During the last quarter
of an hour there was an indis-
criminate scramble for the platform in
front OF the ballot boxes and the managers
were confronted with sea Of hands hold
ing ballots. The list keepers were unable
20 hear the voters names as they were
called out, and for few minutes il looked
as though the police would have 20 be
called in TO restore order. The crowd
quoted down, however, and there was 40
further trouble. In spite OF the crush
there was an unusually small percentage
Of Illegal voting, aud only two or three
arrests we're made.

A place
Devoid of wisdom, wit and grace.

Under the regime of my friend, the pres
ent rector of WrOote, / have no doubt it IS
possessed of all three. For about two of
THESE years John Wesley was his fathers
curate, until he was summoned back to
college 10 actas moderator OF the classes
and Greek lecturer" This high-sOunding
title has appeared to the uninitiated to in
dlcate some grand position in the univers-
ity, but in point OF fact it only meant
that he was called upon to do the work of
a Junior tutor in his own little college.
Mr.. Wesley's end was accelerated by
fall from q wagon on the way to Low
MelwOod, where he rented some land, in
1871; he survived the fall nearly four
years, and died in harness in 1885; he was
buried in EpwOrth churchyard, on the
south side OF the chancel of that church
in which he had faithfully minIstered for
nearly forty years; and it is a curious
fact that the only other rector who is
buried in the churchyard held the living

respected predecessor, the Hon. and Rev.
Canon Dundas. The epitaph seems to
