THE MAYOR SURPRISED BY PROPOSED LEGIst
LATIoN AT ALBANY.

THE MAYOR SURF RlSEO BY PROPcStD LDoirt
LATIoN AT ALBANY.
The question OF opening streets in the Annexed
District up again yesterday before the Board OF
Street Openings. ExJudge Ernest Hail. repre-
seuting the Port Morris Land and Improvement Com
pany. urged the opening Of certain streets which he
sad the company would regulate and grade without
expense to the city, Mr.. Hall observed that Assem-
blyman Burns had on Monday introduced bill which
would prohibit such Improvements in the neghbor-
hood OF railroad tracks. Mayor Grant expressed
establishment at this statement and was Joined by Con-
Huchins, who doubted the correctness Of the state
meDt. But Mr. Hall produced copy OF the bill Thich
forbds the laying Of streets highways within the
limits OF any city OF 5000 population. or within
radius Of twenty five miles OF such city, without an
order from the Supreme Court based upon evidence
that public necessity requires 1t.
Commissioner Gilroy said that the bill matched the
recent effort Of railroad corporations TO keep the peo
pie away from the river front Tho Mayor Insisted
that II was an unusually barefaced attempt TO over
turn the action Of the Board. On the motion OF
Commissioner Hutchins memorial TO the Legislature
Is TO be prepared and sent to Albany, demonstrating
against the passage OF such legislation. Corporation
Counsel Clark was requested tO begin legal proceed
inGs for the opening Of Freeman-st. from Union
IL the Southern Boulevard. There were many appli-
cations for the opening Of other streets. but they
laid for the purpose Of ascertaning whether
or not the improvements were wanted by surface
railway corporations. which are making extensive
preparations for running their lines through the An
eAed District.

THE nay.

Let it be a day Of kind thoughts.
Thanksgiving day is an excellent time
to remember that you are glad you are
alive. During past months you have had
so mnch to do and 50 many things to
worry over that you hsse had a very vague
and general impression that. it was a
stupid world, badly jumbled up and
shaken together, with nothing specially
attractive within your reach. But If you
think half a minute you will take a diff
ferent view Of the situation.
You are all right. Some people may
experience drawbacks, but you are more
fortunate. Letthe other fellows grumble
and NOPE If they will, provided you can
not cheer themu UP. But you have nc rea-
son to put Oh a long face and look bill
ious. Connt on your fingers the reasons
you have for being thankful. You will
have to count at least ten on every finger.
Isn't that SOP Then go along, you lucky
dog.
Everyone can enjoy Thanksgiving day.
But the man, woman or child who can
enjoy it and will not has no business
here or in heaven, Think Of full-ledged
angel trying to learn to be happy. They
all have to learn how before they get to
be angels.
To-day is a good time for you to study
the past by enjoying yourself with all
your might and helping other people to
enjoy themselves.

nurlal Of Sir turkey GOPHER.

Burial OF Sir Turkey Gobh1er.
Not a drum was heard, nor a fureralnote,
As his corps to the table was hurried;
He was savory and hot in his we'll brown coat.
In the gravy the turkey was buried.
He WIS buried quite deep in the dim twilight,
The cook did the bastlng and turning.
By tho blazing, cracking fire so bright
He was done just enough without burning.
No useless coffin inclosed his breast,
Nor in sheet nor in shroud we bound him,
But he lay us tho tired. on his back, at rest,
With the onions and dressing around him.
Manytnd long werc the praises we said,
And we spoke not a word of SORROW,
But thought as we gazed on the turkey so dead,
HIS RENAME will make hash on tho morrow.
We thought % we followed his cranberry he'd
And smoothed down his nice oyster putting,
That the cats in the yard will feast on his head
While we are dissecting his stutans.
Lightly they'll talk of the turkey that's gone,
And Ger his dry bones they'll upbraid him;
As now he'sa wreck, the boarders will mourn
Der the gravy and sage where they laid him
But half of our heavy task WINS done,
And the turkey was fast Disappearing;
He hadsseen his last rattle and was finally wo,
BY our boarding house ma'am amid cheering
Slowly and sadly the bones were bereft
OF meat with cranberry CORY;
We carved not a slice, for nothing was left,
But tho plate, where he lay in his glory.

A Boy. Frishtful ra,i.

The son Of J. ]. Treat Of Manitou,
Col. was exploring the wonders Of
Williams canon recently and as he
was standing on the top OF some high
rocks his foot slipped and he fell over
a precipice between 200 and $50 feet
high. The lad received several very
bad gsshes. but no bones we're broken.
It is q marvellous thing that he was
not killed outright. considering the
great distance be fell, and the rocky
nature OF the ground. The point over
which he fell Is exceedingly danger
Gus, and his escape is the talk of the
village. His feelings in the rapid de-
scent were terrible. and his breath
came in short quick gasps. and he
turned half around several times in
midair. He is getting along as well
as could be expected under the circum-
stances. 1t is feared that he Is injured
internally, but 1t will be impossible
to tell for q few days.

CRIME IN
Lks the snaks. of ireland. There L
No suoil Thing.

Like the Snakes OF ireland, There L.
No suoil Thing.
That there is practically no such
thing as crime in Heligoland, we have
all heard, but it has been reserved for
a writer in Blackwood to tell us why
this Is. 1t is, we learn, the inevitable
resultof living upon so small an island.
Even conduct OF any seriously improper
kind is practically impossible where
everybody knows everybody else's
doings and position. since for those
who transgress the rules of social de-
corum there IS but one course ope
This is self-banishment, and to leave
Heligoland forever is to its sons more
bitter than death. AS to crime OF the
graver sort every would-be criminal
knows that he cannot possibly escape
from this tiny speck In the North Sea
except with the connivanoe of the
whole population. Last year two
housebreakers from Hamburg vent
ured to come acros on a professional
visit. They had a highly successful
evenings work. Every door stood
open. They had only to watch when
no n vas by, step boldly in and
carry away what they cared for. They
got altogether u very handsome booty.
But they had forgotten one important
detail-there was no steamer leaving
Heligoland the following day till 2
O'clock. Long ere then the thefts had
been discovered. the robbers lodged in
prison and the stolen property re-
stored to It's owners So the Heliso-
landers are honest, whether they like
II or not.

There is n significant fact connected
with the late elections, and that is the
fact that there is a large Democratic ma
jority in tho next house from northern
states alone. If the alleged solid South
were to be elilnated altogether from the
Fifty-second Congress there would still
be a Democratic majority of at least
twenty. Hysterical gentlemen, who are
given to ranting on tho southern ques.
tion, will do well to bear this little cir.
cumstance in mind. 1t is no longer q
case of the solid South holding down 8
divided country. The Democrats carried
She last elections and could dominate the
the next house without drawing upon the
South at all.
