A TALE OF WONDERS.

Some years ago went one day 70 look up
a man whom only knew as a pettifogging
lawyer in Brooklyn police court and q
small politician. After one or two false
starts traced him TO O carpenters loft,
where, with bis coat of and shirt sleeves
rolled up, be was working away at the clean,
fresh wood, very much better employed,
remember thinking, than in helping rogues
to escape the consequences of their mis-
deeds. Business of legal nature wasn't
very brisk with him, he explained.
The next l heard of the pettifogger was
that he had turned builder in earnest, and
he was putting up Brooklyn buildings by
the block. Where he ever got the capital
don't know; probably started in a very
small way and worked up by degrees to the
possession of many thousands and better
clothes than used TO cover his thin figure,
now thin no longer.
! know another lawyer of a more pros
porous kind, so far as the law is concerned,
who invests his spare capital in lands and
buildings. He told me the other day of selling
a couple Of very modest frame tenemsnts
at net profit Of $4,000, gained in about
three months. In fast, the city on the other
side of the bridge had been for some years
an Ell Dorado to the builders aud real estate
men, who are making fortunes out of the
old farms and cabbage gardens. All the
wonders of rapid growth that are told Of
Minneapolis, st. Paul. Kansas City and
Chicago have been repeated In Brooklyn
within the last five years, or since the COM
pletion of the elevated railroads. The GER
tainty of annexation with New York and
the rapid growth of both cities promise
here a city larger than London before many
wears.

people live winter as we'll as summer.
Coney Island differs all the way from 90, 900

Yet the city is very well behaved, much
better than it used to be in the old days, as
we'll as any city of so many people. One
reason / saw on Sunday, when a big platoon
of fiue looking policemen marched out from
the station house to change patrols with
another fine looking platoon just going In.
Mr.. McKane is superintendent of police be-

j. OVERHEARD ON THE BRIDGE.

The Brooklyn bridge has O strange fasci-
nation for cranks. You meet them there at
all hours, men who claim an intimate rela-
tionship with the planets. men who want to
jump off and don't do it. men with theories
about electricity aud music and other
things. They gather about and stare and
the policemen prod them with their clubs.

Strawberries on it. They ought to have
built it so that you could raise Strawberries

WHO WILL BE GovERNoRl

It seems to bs pretty well agreed that
Lieut.. Gov. Jones is running hopeless race
for the governorship.
The situation in New York is peculiar.
Gov Hill is holding the office OF senator as
we'll as governor. He took the office Of
senator to avoid a fight in the party, he is
keeping the governorship because he cannot
trust Jones to put up his delegations, and it
is even possible that he may in the fall
again accept a nomination for governor,
resigning the senatorship. This is hardly
Roswell P. Flower as the nominee
Mr.. Flower is a sensible and discreet
man, as well as a rich one, and worked
hard to bring the worlds fer to
New York. Mr.. Jones has q barrel, but it
isn't big one, and there is something the
matter with the spigot; it doesn't turn easily.
Besides, Mr. Jones is not always discreet or
even sensible. So the fact that he has been
lieutenant governor, and that he really
ought to be governor now, II Mr.. hni
weren't straddling, is not likely to help him
much.
OF course there are plenty of dark horses.
Mayor Chaplin of Brooklyn was considered
very rapid runner at one time, but local
scandals have crippled him. Mr.. Covert,
who represents the First district in con-
gress. would like to be a candidate.
On the republican side there is not yet
nearly SO much interest shown. This does
not mean that there will not be fight, and
a hot one, later. It simply means that cleo
tior is a long way of. 1t is by no means
impossible that Frederick Schroeder Of
Brooklyn may be run on platform with a
liberal excise plank to please his German
fellow citizens, which would be a queer
enough comment on the high license cam :

breast works

THE ACTORS, COLONY.

It's a strange vicissitude of fate which
has overtaken New Rochelle. As its name
would indicate, the town was founded by
religious refugees from France-Huguenots
driven out after the revocation of the edict
of Nantes. Even yet the descendants Of the
Frenchmen and Walloens, who came there
for conscience sake, cling to the old town
and to their faith 10 Calvin.
But the Huguenot blood isn't what shows
on the surface. For some occult reason, per-
haps the mysterious attraction of opposites,
New Rochelle has been pitched upon by the
artists and actors for their summer homes
