The scenes on the streets last night
down town were quiet and orderly. But
little more enthusiasm was di splayed than
that which characterized the scenes
around the polls during the day. Even
the saloons were d epleted of their usual
crowds, for those who staid out for news
gathered in the various clubroom and in
the First Police Court room, and q uietly
discussed foregone CO Inclusion.
The small boy, as usual, had his little

Two slight ripples of excite ment were
manifest when report came down to
Police Headquarters that fight was in
progress in Bergen avenue over ballot
box, followed by second alarm of fire
at the rubber works at Pavonia avenue
and Provost street The second alarm of
the fire proved a false one. and was soon
followed By the return stroke. The re-
port of the fight in Bergen avenue proved
almost as false as the fire alarm. No ar
rests were made. and no one was hurt.
A QUICK COUNT.
Tbs hspromptness and rapIdity with which

ras life 81 \ sgSsdsn 1es.

Judge Bacon has had before him In
the Bloomsbury county court an action
of an unusual character. the subject Of
dispute being an artificial leg. The case
for the plaintiffs was that the defendant,
Mr.. DEAFNESS, a railway clerk, was sup
piled by them with an artificial leg,
the price of which was twenty-five
pounds, one-half of which was paid
when the limb was delivered. At
the time the order was given the de-
fendant was suffering o great deal in
consequence of his having for long
time worn boys leg.
1t was alleged that the leg was bad
fit, and for that reason he refused to pay
for it. On cross-examination the plain
tiffs denied having guaranteed that the
leg would last for seven years. The or
dinary life of leg with ordinary wear
and tear would be some years, but. how
many they could not say. Defendant,
who appeared in court wearing the leg,
which he offered through his counsel to
remove for his honor's inspection, an
offer which was not accepted, said the
limb was of no use to him, as it hurt
him very much, but he was obliged to
continue wearing it because he had no
other.
He was not man who could afford a
new leg every year, and he bought this
offending limb on the representation
that he would be able to wear it with
comfort for seven years. Plaintiffs had
altered it once or twice, but still it was
very uncomfortable, and he now asked
to be allowed to give the plaintiffs back
their leg and to have his thirteen pounds
returned. His honor thought the leg
was a good fit and gave judgment for the
plaintiffs for the amount claimed, with
costs.-Pall Mall Gazette.

The Maternal Instinct and Dogs.

Dog worship is, as has been said, a
fashion. It is, for the most part, an i'm
itation, a pretense, in the beginning at
least, though it may become, often does
become, sincere, serious to degree, in
furious after long indulgence. Un-
natural attachments, affections misdi-
rected are likely to bring their own re-
venges. They stray so far from fitness
that they cannot return to the normal
when they would, whatever the effort
made. That dog worship is fashion is
shown by the fashionable women who
regularly appear in the parks and public
drives with tiny dogs on their laps or
nesting against their bosoms.
Often these women are unmarried
They give to dogs the care, the tender
ness, the devotion they would give to
babies had they borne them. 1t is plain
ly the arrangement and Illustration of
the maternal instinct, as is proved when
they become mothers. Then they usually
discard their four footed pets inmedi-
ately and forget all about them.-Junius

Abont Sunstroke.

Among probable causes of sunstroke
are the presence of stagnant atmosphere,
excess in diet, as tending to retard tissue
changes, pulmonary oppression by cloth
ing with consequent malaeration, great
physical exhaustion with cardiac fatigue
and the consumption, even in moderate
amount, of alcoholic liquors during hot
weather. The habitual wearing of some
what loose porous clothing, by encourag-
ing perspiration and assisting the re-
moval of its products, will also contrib
ute materially toward the reduction of
the general temperature,
1t is needful to keep in view the ex-
treme sensitiveness of the cerebro spinal
nerve centers, especially those of the
medulla. The means by which protec-
ton can best be accomplished call for a
brief notice. Among these may be men
toned the adoption of the familiar white
veil behind and over the head, the in
terposition of wet white linen cloth
between head and hat and the effectual
ventilation Of the latter.-London Ian

How 4 1oisgruntied Actor Got Even with
the Great Hamlet.

How q 1oisgruntled Actor Got Even with
the Great Hamlet.
Edwin Booth, despite his reputation
for being cold and unapproachable, has
a humorous side and can tell q funny
story, even when it's on himself, with
solemnity that is refreshing.
A member of the tragedian's company
relates the following: He once told me
about western experience OF his In the
fifties. Booth was then the star Of a
certain stock company playing the Cali
fornia towns. 1t was rough out there
then, and the same company did every
thing from Hamlet to song and dance
all at the same theater and often with
in the same week.
"In this company there was q young
man Of much histrionic talent, who, pre-
vious to the advent of Booth, played the
leading roles, but who was thrown into
the shade by the new star. Jealousy and
hot words followed. The manager and
the disappointed tragedian were contin-
ually at war over the distribution OF
parts.
"When the time for producing Ham
let arrived it was found that the cast
would necessarily muster into act every
one from the ticket seller to the lamp
man. The long suffering manager had
resolved to punish the recalcitrant actor,
and he was given the part of Guilden-
stern.
"There was some muttering, but all
went we'll enough until the opening
night. The house was filed. The
scenery was crude, and for that matter
so was the audience, but the applause
was generous. Things reached a climax
in the second scene Of the third act,
where Rosencranz and Guildenstern are
sent by the king to spy on the alleged
madness of Hamlet.
''The usual futile endeavors to get any
information out of the melancholy Dane
were gone through with and then, of
course, came Booths powerful scene in
which the musical instrument is intro
duced (the pipe on this occasion being a
clumsy tin affair, painted to suit the
aesthetic soul of the property MANI.
1.-The audience listened in breathless
expectation, and the dialogue proceeded
as follows:
"Hamlet-Will you play upon this
pipe?
"Guildenstern-My lord, I cannot.
"H.-I pray you.
"G.-Beieve me, cannot.
"And here the proud Dane lifted him.
self erect, preparatory to hurting at
Guildenstern that crescendo of mingled
rage and scorn which begins with ''Tis
as easy as lying, etc But the crescendo
never came.
"Hamlet-I do beseech you.
Guildenstern-Then don't mind if I
do.
"And seizing the obstreperous horn, he
broke forth into weird, unearthly strain
of Yankee Doodle and what-not
"I stood there dazed,' said Booth,
for it seemed to me hours, trying to con-
meet the lines or collect my thoughts so
as to go on, but it was of no use, for the
fend with the horn kept right on with
his refined torture, until at last, in sheer
mercy, the curtain went down to rise no
more that night.
