The Need Of New station Houses.

The gentlemen who examined the
condition of police stations in this
city yesterday very properly decided
that many of them are unfit for the
uses to which they are put. They
found that the basement of the First
Precinct Station, for instance, is damp
and unhealthful, an improper place in
which to confine human beings. The
law provides various penalties for
crime, but malaria and ~diphtheria are
not among them. 1t is intended that a
person arrested shall be consigned to a
place of temporary detention and not to
the tomb. 1t will be of little concern
to q man taken up ON the Hill to be
tried whether the penny which de-
cides his fate with the jury falls heads
or tails if he knows that his night in

Her Nibs' Toes.
From the Baltimore sam.

-fN'S 49, CHSfNs
Now comes a girl that is plump
enough to be well rounded without a
suggestion of corpulence, slender
enough to be graceful withal, uncon-
scious of self enough to be modest
without prudery, merry enough to be
charming without atfectation, and
with a touch of originality about her
costume that makes her still more in
teresting. 1t is not in the headdress,
q blue and white handkerchief taste
fully arranged, from under which a
heavy plait of golden hair falls below
the waist and ends in a curly tangle;
nor in the suit, which is like many
others, a blue Jersey cloth with a
scroll pattern in white braid on collar
and Wristbands, belt and skirt; but
she has remembered how pretty a
white hand looks in a dark mitt, and
applying the knowledge in another
direction has cut away part of the
foot of the stocking, exposing the
daintiest, whitesI toes, with pink tint
ings as beautiful as a baby's. Not
one in twenty could have done it; for
an unsightly corn or other blemish
would have been fatal to the effect;
but there is nothing of the kind here.
AS her escort joins her hecasts a shy
glance downward and begins to laugh.
Her eyes do not fall to her feet; it is
not necessary, for she has made an ex-
haustive study thereof in private.
Coloring slightly, she laughs up at
him and says:-''You said | neither
knew how nor would dare to be orig
inal. What now" His answer is not
audible, but they pass on smiling. In
another minute they brace themselves
to meet a breaker, and mademoiselle
of the toes disappears to make her
bow to the little fishes and her sister
sea nymphs.

WHY She was whipped.

. tHC O0t . SOHtfttttOHs
Whenever you punish a child,'
say those people who find it so easy to
give good advice, Railways be sure
that the child understands perfectly
why you do So" The mother of a
certain Miss Alice acted upon this
principle, but it is not sur that it is
always successful.
The little girl was in the habit of
crying upon the slightest occasion.
Finally she was warned that the next
time she offended in that way she
should be punished. Soon afterward
she was heard bawling Justify.
What are you crying for?" in
quired the mother.
"Becauth Bridget would not let me
go out to play.n
The threatened punishment was
promptly administered. Now,
Alice" said the mother, do you
know why you were punished?"

THERE are some persons in every
community whose chief business in
life is to blank the wheel of progress.
To this class belong those who are in
terposing objections to the develop
medt of the County, through the
medium of rapid transit enterprises.
Nothing can so surely invite popula-
ton, and build up the beautiful home
sites on the hill top, as the elevated
roads that are being pushed into both
the North and South sections of the
County, and yet a few property
owners, blinded by selfshness, hesitate
about giving them a right of way
across their estates.

The Hudson County Pioneer Associa-

their headquarters in Otto Meyers Hotel,
near the Elevator. Two new candidates
were elected, but Fred Mersheimer. the
democratic committeeman in that pre-
cinct, was refused admission by one vote
after an exciting ballot. Several mem
bers were so highly incensed that they
withdrew from the Pioneer Association.

She was deaf and dumb, and was mar
ried by signs. She lived with her hus-

1.-THE bank will not lose a penny
said Cashier Goodspeed.
Well, that is good news. 1t is right
that young Hoyt's ~sureties should pay
up. and still more right that he should
help if he has the wherewithal.
But because the money is thus
scraped together to protect the bank,
shouldth the thief escape? If he should,
we may as well go out of the govern
ment business and take to anarchy or
nihilism. Hoboken is pretty bad.
Two big d~efalcations in eight weeks is
a record seldom beaten; but what will
she be if it comes to pass that every
man who is caught can buy off?
We are glad the bank is likely to be
made whole, but that is altogether a
secondary matter to the punishment
of the rascal who did the robbery.
We rely on MI. Duryee to make him
an example to other would-be bank
robbers.

The Neurogical society lately held
seance in New York, in which several
pugilists were exhibited to establish
marked similarity between their ears
and those Of the incurably insane. It is
a well known fact among physicians
that swollen prominence Of the upper
part Of the ear occurs often in crazy
people, and is an invariable Indication
Of hopeless lunacy. Among prize fight
ers the same peculiar mark is seen, re-
sulting from frequent pummeling Of the
head. The swelled ear Of a fighter is
priced by him as q distinction second
only to a broken nose, and In time be-
comes an established trade mark; but
the individuals who came forward to
illustrate "H@matonia," or humorous
ears, were somewhat chagrined to find
that their professional sign also belongs
to the worst cases Of the mad house.
Investigation might lead to the discovery
Of o more intimate lxinship between the
two classes. Of people who bear the brand
Of swelled ears.--Cosmopolitan.

The Nlnety-nine Year Lease.

Ths question is frequently ask ed how
it happened that the odd number OF
ninety-nlne years was selected as the
term for a long lease OF land. Very few
real estate men can give a satisfactory
explanation to this question, and ind ed
the explanations OF expert and ex-
perienced lawyers are rather unsatis-
factory to themselves and others. Per
haps the best explanation is that there
is tradition (Which has probably taken
the. form Of law in some of the old
statutes) that lease for 100 years or
more is not merely lease but an actual
conveyance OF the title. OF course any
such possibility as this IS is sufficient to
restrain the owner Of a piece OF land
from making lease Of over ninety
nine years, for nothing is more dreaded
by an owner of realty than a cloud on
his title. 1T IS practicable, however, TO
make substantially a perpetual lease of
a piece of land by setting the term at
ninety~nine years and inserting a clause
providing for repeated renewals of the
lease for similar terms.
