What Does Ii Mean?

About four years ago D. p. Bloomer,
an Israelite about five feet six inches in
height, and weighing probably $50
pounds, was found in his bed at the
Nicollet house terribly beaten about
the head, coupling pin that was found
III the room being plainly the instru-
ment with which the blows were in
f1icted. The man recovered, and
began suit for $4,000 DANA
ges against John Il. West, the
proprietor of the hotel. The case was
set for trial several times, but, there be-
ing no appearance on the part of the
plaintiff, it was finally dismissed. A
morning paper the other day attempted
to produce a sensation by announcing
that BlOOmer was mistaken for we'll
known Democratic politician, who is
six feet two inches tall and tips the
beam at about 40 pounds, and was
pounded into insenSibility in the back
yard of a diSreputable resort on Sec
Ond street north. The persons
committing the assault were toughs
hired by gamblers who desired to have
the politician ''dOne up" because of his
enmity to Mayor Ames. The story is
too palpably absurd to pass muster as a
decent fake, but the question that
arises is,What is the animus in publish
ing such an article? Mayor Ames is not
q candidate for office this fall, but it is
appTehended that the connection re-
ferred to is intended to work him i'll
Jury III some way.

TO TIE WORD.RUILDERS.

The Word Building Contest closes tonight
at u o'clock. The lists now in hand num-
bers several thou sand and each mail bringsa
fresh avalanche.
A most interminable task awaits the Word
Building Editor and h S ass 'stants Our SYM
pathe ic correspondents have not overrated
the case. Much midnight gas will be burned
before the work Of determining the success
full competitor is ~accompl shed. But, desp tie
the multitude of lis s. which is probably
greater than that called forth by any other
previous contest of a similar ia ure, every
competitor may rest assured that his or her
list will rece We careful examination.
The extraordinary difficulty of the task
may be appreciated when 1t is considered
that there is no standar lit for comparison.
Many of the lists which look very large, when
subjected to critical examination, are found
to he very defective. the builders having
used obviously inndmissible letters and words
with great freedom.
The Word building Editor and his corps
of assistants will, however, proceed in a
careful and systematic fashion. A large and
we!l-prepared list will first be taken and
every improper word weeded out. This will
serve rs u leLlpOIuTy sIiilNuIus CNciN onlhiicL
list will then be excluded. All larger lists
will be critically examined and compared.
The way is long and arduous, but it is hoped
that the decision reached, though ~dlsappolnt-
ing to all but one of the competitors, will lie
accepted as the deliberate outcome of the
most rigorous scrutiny inspired 10y the spirit
of fair play to all.
The successful list will be published for
the information of competitors. AS may be
appreciated, it is utterly impossible to at
tempt to return to the writer's the lists sub.

THE JOSIE SHEPPARD CASE.

The proceedings in the courts to compel
the production of the records of the Juvenile
Asylum for examination by The EVENING
WORLD have been met by the voluntary sub
mission of the alleged history of the case of
little JOSIE SHEPPARD. The record is, how
ever, incomplete and unsatisfactory, as it
does not show what has become of the child
since his transfer to Illinois. and the absence
of the a%pprenticing agents report leaves us
in ignorance of what disposition has been
made of him.
Meanwhile the application for the restora-
ton of the little one to his grandmother is
ready for formal presentation to the commit
tee next Monday.
There now appears to be little doubt that
the course of the Superintendent of the
House of Reception will be disapproved by
the committee and the child surrended to its
friends without necessitating q resort to other
proceedings.

ABATE THE NUISANCE,

It appears that the driver of the bobtail
car which ran over and killed Mrs. LEVY last
Tuesday was making change for Il passenger
ut the moment the sad accident occurred. AS
this is q part of his duty it 10 probable he will
escape responsibility for the homicide.
But if the driver is not sent TO Jail the bob
tail car ought to be sent to Jericho. 1t has
no business in the city, and the best proof
is that the system was the cause of the death
of Mrs. LEVY. If there had been a conductor
to collect the fares hat lady would not have
met her horrible death.
Danish the bobtail car. The Penal Code
defines a Public Nuisance as anything
which lin any way renders a consider
able number of persons insecure in life
or the use of property" The conductor
less car e~ndsngers the life of every pedes-
trian who crosses its tracks, besides risking
injury to its passengers. 1t can be abated as
q dangerous public nuisance, and proper
steps ought to be taken after this accident to
drive it from the streets of the city.
