There is nothing benefits mankind so
much as a change, even if it is only a
change of linen. But what we mean to
convey is that too much of any one
thing becomes monotonous. The clerk,
tied for hours to his desk, seeks relaxa-
ton on his flying wheel; the policeman,
on his feet for hours, (D finds relaxation
in an easy chair by his, or, any other
friends fireside; man .badgered by a
shrew of wife seeks relaxation by tilt
ing a can over his head, and as the beer
disappears, he gazes with consolation at
his reflected countenance at the bottom
of the GROWER. Even at the theatre
how many plays are monotonous when
ment is relieved by hearty laugh, a
merry dance or comic song. And if
variety is the spice of hfe," it reaches
perfection in the great comedy, "She
Couldn't Marry Three"

WORLD OF SPORTS.

Rusie was disabled in the second
Brooklyn New York game of last Satur-
day, but had he been able to pitch
against the Bostons in the series just
closed, he would have probably have
met the same fate that WEIGH, Coughln
and Sullivan did. In the seven games
that Rusie has pitched against the Bos-
tons this year he has only won one.
There is no pitcher in the league that
the Boston players face with more con-
fidence than Rusie.
To charge that the Philadelphias,
Brooklyns and New Works have been
guilty of "throwing'' games deliberately
to the Bostons is to insult such men as
Manager Harry Wright, President Char
les H. Byrnes and President John B.
Day, all of whom accompanied their
respective teams to Boston, witnessed
all their games, and who would not toler-
ate for an instant the slightest DISPOSE

A Boycott in Rockville.

ROCKVILLE, October 2.-The principal
fish market of this city, conducted by
Graham & Brewer, was sold out yester-
day to P. H. Collins as the result of an
active boycott of the market by the
citizens of this city. The boycott was
caused by an insulting letter written by
F. S. Brewer, who has managed the
market, to Tax Collector Maurice Muir
ply of Pennington. The tax collector
wrote Mr. Brewer a letter asking for
So 10 due for taxes. Mr. Brewer claimed
that he was exempt from the tax and
wrote the tax collector letter which
was not only insulting to him but to all
the Irish people. The letter was pub
llshed in a New Haven and Hartford
paper and caused a sensation here. The
market was Immediately boycotted by
Irish citizens. 1t is said the firm has done
but very little business since that time
and were compelled to sell out.

John Shanhhah Secures an Injunction

John Shanhhan Secures ain Injunction
Against the City.
Webster & O'Neill, attorneys for John
Shanahan, obtained a temporary injunc-
ton from Judge Cowell, late yester-
day afternoon; restraining the city
from occupying the land of Mr. Shan
ahan until the title is transferred from
the latter to the city. The suit is re-
turnable before the district court on the
first Tuesday in November.
This action effectually blocks the
widening of Bank street, near the
Brooklyn bridge, and the opening and
bridging of Burnham street. The prop
erty involved is triangular piece of
land, with q small wooden building,
situated at the junction of Bank and
South Riverside streets and the New
York & England railroad.
Two years or more ago the property
was condemned by the city, the board
Sc, 200. Mr. Shanahan was not satisfied
with the amount offered him, and
through Attorney Cole appealed to the
superior court, but the case has never
been tried.
1t is said that Mr. Shanahan stands
ready to effect some sort of compromise
with the city, and if such be the case we
hope the laws delays will be avoided,

ACCIDENT AND INCIDENT.
William COlgan's jaw Bones Take
Period of Rest.


Period of Rest.
About three weeks ago William Col
gan was eating ice at his home in
Bridgeport, when suddenly he felt his
mouth closing forcibly. He became
scared and uttered a cry. In doing So
he opened his mouth about an inch and
has since been unable to close it. The
best of the local medical profession had
been called in, but they were unable to
aid him. AS a last resort he visited DR.
Dawbarn of New York. The physician
told him that in order to relieve him an
operation would have to be performed.
This was done Wednesday, and the
patient bore the pain with much forti-
tude. Each cheek was cut open and the
jaw bone cut. The mouth was closed
and the wound sewed up. The opera
ton was a complete success, but it will
be some time before the patient can be
brought home.
A colored man named John Randall,

the Harrison street police wagon with
a squad of officers prevented the lynch

evening. He had attempted to assault
a seven year old girl named Nellie Law

and tried to take Keller from the captors,
but the latter held him until the arrival

Great Credit.

Great Credit.
The record made by John G. Thomp-
son, keeper of the aims house, for the
year ending September 80, 1891, is one
to which he may point with consider
able satisfaction. The total amount of
cash orders drawn for the support of
the house was SO, 159 45, while the in
come was as follows: Board of prisoners
S906.6O, receipts for produce, fines paid,
etc, $213.41, rent of track 500, total
S1.220.O1, making a total of 5000, "A.
Last year the outstanding bills were
$4,000, and this year they are estimated
at $500, making the net expense of
maintaining the aims house 81, 799. so
for the year. This is considerable less
than usual, and is a very fine showing
for Superintendent Thompson, es-
pecially as the greatest number of in
mates since the house was built were
provided for during the year. At one
time during the year there were 1913 in
mates at the institution.
