turned in such Il way that the freclle on
her nose was in tho shadow, while he
clasped her hand and bent his hazel eyes
on the toothpick toes of his patent feathers
and seemed to be dreaming. All at once,
as suddenly as IL cat had been dropped
from fourth-story window, shiver ran
through his manly frame.
"Alfred, what is 1t ?" she cried in alarm
as she sprang up.
He was silent.

THE TUNNEL FIGHT WON.

The bill providing for the ventilation and
lighting of the Fourth Avenue Railway
Tunnel has become a law, having re-
ceived yesterday the signature OF Gov.
HILL. Thus is completed another
victory for the people, and that after the
hardest and most protracted fight which
The EVENING WORLD las ever carried to a
finish. The public is 10 be congratulated
on the issue, for its interests were at stake
The law which is now enacted should
have been in force ten years ago For nine
OF those years the New York Central has
been running in direct and reck-
less disregard of Grand Jury's man
date, yet none has been found,
until The EVENING WORLD stepped
into the breach TO take up the cause Of the
peoples safety and carry it to success
How the fight was initiated and carried
on Is told in detail in other columns to-day,

tends its fluctuations to the people
whom 1t serves. 1t desires to ex-
press also its warm appreciation of
the work done by Assemblyman WILLIAM
SULzER, who introduced the original Tunnel
bill, and of the hearty cooperation Of
Assemblyman WALTER BYnNE, Senator
AHEARN and others during the struggle in
the Legislature.
Gov. Hills approval of the bill is graft
flying, not only as an Endorsement of the
measures use and importance, but as evi-
dence of the State Executives constant
sympathy with great causes which are for
the peoples good.
