It's q pity that there should be 80 much

There is and can be no question about the
deed. A public meeting has been held, the
Aldermen have taken favorable action, big
petitions nave been presented by The EVEN

why all this delay Please hurry matters,

DID THE OLD SECTION DIsBANDp

Pass II Mysterious n esoIution.
The old Metal Section, which was
suspended a good while ago by the Central
Labor Union and Invested of all its powers,
street. in spite of the order given the Board
of Trustees of the central body to see that it
was dispossessed.
Last night another long session was held,
and o long resolution was passed. but Secre-
tary McClelland was instructed not to give it
to any of the reporters, and not a delegate of
the half dozen present would tell what it was
about.
Surmises we're to the effect that the section
had dissolved, but that it had made a last APP
peal to the Central Labor Union before leav-
ing that body entirely.
Seer etary Ernest Bohm has been organic
ing n u new Metal Section. and as soon as he is
ready to report it is likely the Central Union
will authorize it to act and take the place
filed by the old section.

A Younaish Old Msu Who Was Both Gray
and Sprightly.

Three men were crossing Beekman street.
One was of the youthful old man type, to
whom gray hairs seem an accident. The
other two were ruddy-faced young men.
One of them had Il large blister on the palm
of his hand, and the youthful old man and
the other young man were assisting at a clinic
ON it as they crossed the street. The result
was that they did not noJice n big truck till
the tongue poked the ~ IN. in the back.
They caught hold of each other. as men will
do III a pane, much to the delight of the more
emotional Sex, and made q wild leap out of
the way.
Then the young gray-haired fellow, who
was evidently a jolly old dog, turned and
waved HIS hand airily to the driver, doubtless
IN courteous recognition Of the fact that when
he had such u blooming opportunity to run
over him he should nave denied himself that
pleasure.
When he got his head around again he
found il in collision with a hungry hansom-
cab horse. who was shifting as II he was q bale
OF hay. This called for another wild and
riotous jump, and when they got 10 the curb
stone and felt that the excursion was over,
and that life was still left to drink cocktails
in, they smiled with the glad unfettered
brightness OF childhood and fell to again on
the clinic over the wounded hand.

FROM THE CITY'S WHIRL.
DRIFT CAUGHT HERE AND THERE BY
EVENING WORLD" REPORTERS.
How Capt. Tom KilIiica Once subducd n
Portion of Canada.

There is no more stern and rigid disciplin-
arian on the Municipal Police than Capt.
Tom Killilen, of the Twenty. second Pre-
cinct; but bluff and hearty Tom Killilea on
his vacation is n different sort of chap. file
enjoys n lark as well as any of tho other
young fellows
For his suInmer outing, some years ago, he
went 20 the st. Lawrence River and among
the Thousand Islands.
There he met Editor Carol f. Smith, of
the Syracuse Journal; Tommy Towne, a
popular young politician of Auburn, who
has since died, aud several other gentlemen
who don't sleep III the day time.
Forces were joined and the consolidated
camp numbered fifteen or eighteen gentle
men. One day Editor Smith came into ami
rather shametaced. He had shot n chicken
Just across the river, on n farm belonging 20
n Knnuck. and the latter had abused the =
Yankee roundly, Notwithstanding that the
huntsnan had paid him a 50 bill for his
poultry.
Capt. Killilea's big bosom heaved with in
dlPnation, and in tones not to be disobeyed
he commanded " Every man get his arms !"
Every man did, and the motley crowd.
some carrying rifles, some shotguns and
some pistols, sallied forth undor command of
the redoubtable chief OF the Twenty second.
They marched up the path to the door of
the farmhouse, and a loud rap with the butt
of the Captains gun brought the farmer to
the door.
Capt. Tom got his fingers in his collar and
yanked him into the yard.
" Get down ON your knees, YOU Eng
lish hybrid!' he snorted At the fellow.
Down, | tell you, and apologize to this
American gentleman whom you nave in
suited, or by heaven Wen make II skinner
of your miserable Carcass"
The poor fellows teeth chartered with
fear, and he scrambled to his knees abjectly
just as his wife came into view.
The woman was not half SO much fright
ened. She yelled Mt him, There. l told you
you want behavin' proper an you'd get into
trouble !"
Having received the necessary apology, the
big Captain ordered " can of cold milk and
q fresh glass for every one of these gentle
men," and the frightened Kanuck trem-
blingly produced the tactical and he and his
spouse We're kept very busy for ten minutes
washing glasses for the maraudiug party, for
Capt. Tom would not hear of any of his
friends drinking after another until the glass
had been washed.
After shaking the Canadian up again and
exhausting the last bit of vengeful indigna-
ton in him, the Chief tossed another of
Uncle Sans promises for "a V into the wife's
apron, and giving the ~quaking man warning
never again 10 insult a Yankee, withdrew his
party.

a religious fervor which, they say, filed the
hearts Of the Baptists there fourteen years
ago.
Mr.. Holberg worked diligently for sixteen
months among the people of Sag uarbor,
and, although he says his church was
stran ded financially, he accumulated from
his experience among the " heather " Il good

An EVENING WORLD reporter, passing q
Sixth avenue distillery, was about to enter
to procure some gentle anodyne that would
who had been or%namenting that particular
corner suddenly whisk into the rosy groggery
ahead of him.
He was one OF that stocky kind of men full
of lub-swinging agility, with a bristling lit
tie moustache that had not made UP its mind
whether to be absolutely red or not.
When the reporter approached the counter
over which the liquid symphonies were
passed, he found a bar-boy. delicate and fair,
concentrating his gray matter on the brew
ing of some long golden drink that looked as
II 1t had been scooped from the aureous
Pactolus.
What the - is the matter with my
wanted beer ?"
This Demosthenic period fell from the lips
of the man of the locust with savage severity.
One would have thought that the small boy
behind the bar had outraged his honor.
The bar-boy started like a fawn, and was
about to drop the golden nectar and rush for
the beer, trusting TO the better nature of the
gentleman who had ordered the drink to put
up with the delay, when the proprietor
jumped as If he had got an electric shock,
rushed to the key, drew breathlessly a

years and more. and l ought to know a thing

why, you young men can't imagine the

Now the sailors, ms u rule. land quietly
and go about their business as they ought to
do. To be sure. after a long voyage they are
apt TO celebrate their landing with an unusual
amount of h%iIaritv, but they do not carry
their good time too far.
One peculiar fact | have noticed is that
the supply of trinkets for which the sailor
used to be conspicuous seems to be no more.
Occasionally one will be met who still ciings
TO some cherished mementD or trinket OF
some kind, but you will find that the senti-
ment which prompted the sailors to preserve
these trophies is gradually giving place TO n
