All Men Free And Equal.

There was a large-girthed man IN a
car on the elevated road as L rode
down town the other morning, who
got up and gave his seat to homely-
faced working girl, and then stood
hanging on to a strap all the way
down to Cortlandt street. No one
spoke to him, except a fussy little
gentleman with presumptuous man.
ners, who made such an effort to en-
gage the gentleman in conversation
that everybody around smiled, the
object of the conversational included.
The big man said nothing whatever,
but merely bowed his head OCCASION
ally in dignified recognition of what
his tormentor was saying. 1t was
Grover Cleveland, ex-president Of the
United States, practicing lawyer OF
the city of New York and freehold
er.
There were two things worth tax
ng note of in that episode. The gal
antry with which he rendered his
seat to the plain. faced girl was a
tribute to womanhood. When Grover
Cleveland became president he didn't
have the reputation of being overly
gallant. His sweet wife has possibly
tempered his character. At ali
events his action was an example and
a lesson. The other point is the per-
fection OF American institutions. Yes
terday this man was the ruler Of
sixty millions of people. To-day he
pays a nickel for ride alongside Ia
borers, washerwomen, business men
and Others, who use the elevated road
system, and hangs on by the strap
like any of the rest of us. He is one
of the people to-day, where yesterday
he was one Of the mighty rulers of
earth. The pinched-faoed newsboy
who sold him a paper as he left the
train may be one OF his successors in
the White House. The man who at
present occupies it will in single
day come to the plane on which
Grover Cleveland now walks. It is
the philosophy of the republication

a CHANCE FOR AN IDEAL CITY.
Is the Opportunity Appreciated?

The vital statistics of Savannah prove
beyond contradiction that it is one of the
healt lest cities in this country. 1t should
not be forgotten that the facts by which
this conclusion is reached are daily SUBJ
mitted US, and we, who are most inter-
ested, are able to ju lge neither or not our
reports are true. The comparative tables
are made by those in no way interes ed in
our city. Therefore the conclusions arrived
att from the manner in which they are
reached, would seem to be correct
This being true, the proposition is a very
natural oae. II we make such a record
under existing circumstances, what would
be the true conditi IN Of the public health

in successful operation?

1t is now rumored that the legislature will
be asked to give the privilege to organized
capital to establish a system If water works
in the southern section, and in connec ion
herewith to establish a system of house

the city the most popular, and the result

other prisoner in the barracks.
The Mahoney boy is but II wears old, and
the circumsta ICES under which the robbery
was committed sho@ a moral depravity

who lives at Perry and Houston streets, is a

she sent her daughter up stairs to get the
money to pay tue uldertaker's bill There
was but % cents in silver left.
Young Mahoney is alleged to have gone
up to the room about 6 O'Clock Thursday
morning and taken the money, and Detec-
tive Basch said last night that the lad con-
fessed as much, but he is una0la to account
for it all There were only $45 recove ed.
Part of this was found in Maloney's shoe
