GOING BACK.

The three hundred swindled and Disguised
italian emigrants who sailed yesterday for
their native land will do more to check the
forced immigration from that country than
all the laws that can be passed, while the
present impotent commission sits blindly at
the great port of entry.
Let IL once be learned by word Of mouth
that immigrants cannot "pick up gold In the
streets" Of America; that jobs at $1.5 or 50
. day are not waiting for unskilled labor. and
that the condition of poor Italians in New
York Is no better and often worse than in
their native land, and the unnatural immigra.
tion win cease.
Our Government might we'll assist in
spreading the facts abroad.

II was after 1 o'clock certainly. and unmis-

through the transom over the family en-

But Policeman x. stood on the corner and
twirled his night stick. apparently as inno-
cent Of this fragrant disregard Of the law as
II he was In Halifax.
Just then Roundsman z. came along. He
stopped to chat q moment unoficially with
his subordinate.
The laughter Of the men in the saloon and
the merry blinking Of glass to glass still
made the night air musical.
But there were two guardians of the pence
and enforcers of the law on the corner. and

man X. that made Tommy pause, and he
caught sight of the roundsman behind him.
Don't you know it's after hours ? What
business have you 10 keep openf nave
to come with me-"
The tone of Policeman X. was very severe
and he certainly was not to be triaed with, so
Tommy donned his hat and accompanied him
to the station.
An hour later Policeman Y. having oonsid-
erateiy devoted half of his own night of to
finding q bondsman, Tommy was liberated,
and ten minutes later, as he exchanged his
street coat for his white apron md bar-jacket
again. he CALCULATED - Be gar! I came

The Kitten Drew First Blood and Won the
Fight.
An ungainly Irish setter pup and o woe-be-
gone little kitten had q fight in Long Acre
Square.
A group of men stood around them and
were amused.
The pup was nearly full grown, and as he
passed along near the Barrett House he saw
the kitten and thought it q very funny thing.
He was muzzled, but that did not interfere
with his scent, 80 he poked his cold, wet nose
in the kitty's face.
It did not stay there long. however, for the
kitten | ad sharp claws and was not at all
backward about using them.
She made up faces at the pup. besides, and
then started on q run towards Seventh
avenue.
This was evidently just what the dog
wanted, for he gave chase and catching the
kitten in Long Acre Square. he made her stop
and then he grew az mad as q hornet: He
growled out his sentiments with a will and
tried to bite the kitten, which he couldn't do
on account of his muzzle.
In the .mean time the kitten had put in her
best scratches on his nose, aud after she had
drawn frat blood she won a victory easily,
for the pup gave up the battle. and despite
the encouragement offered him by several OF
the watching group he would fight no more.
