Mr. Barnum had no predecessors, and will have
no successors. He was unique.

Complaints are made that the Ballot Reform law
was constantly violated by the Democratic officials
at the recent election in Kings County towns.
They allowed unauthorized persons to prepare bal
lots for voters who were not physically disabled,
kept Republican watchers away from the polls, and
failed 10 comply with many of the provisions for
| securing secrecy in voting. The police officers
were in accord with the town officials and pre-
vented ready access to the polls by voters who
were known to be opposed to the ring" candi-
dates No law is sufficiently strong to make
elections honest il the officials persist in dis
regarding it; but it ought to be possible to
sufficient evidence to convict these men of the
open infractions of the law which they have
committed.
Yes thank you, we are feeling right we'll this
morning. To all our friends, with their hearty
wishes of many happy returns of the day." The
Tribune anticpatively tenders its warmest thanks.
Policeman Overton, the colored member of the
Brooklyn force, got of lightly the first time he
was arraigned before the Police Commissioner
His offence was not a serious one. The
charge was that he had neglected to arrest
q saloon-keeper whose place was open on Sunday
Overton pleaded in his defence that another police
man had been in the place, man older and
more experienced than he and that as this man
did not take the ,saloon-kceper into custody, he
was doubtful as 70 his duty in the premises, and
so only reported the facts ut the police station.
This was, under the circumstances, venial
offence, and the Commissioners rcprimand seems
10 have been all that was called for. IL is a
pleasure 10 note that Overton made "a good i'm
preston on all who saw him when arraigned.
The ridiculous boycott against him has been raised,
and apparently there is nothing to prevent his
being n valuable officer.

The General Appropriation bill having be-
come law and the Supply bill having passed
the Senate, the majority in that branch of the
Legislature are in a position to talk about the
question of final adjournment. Some time ago
the Assembly passed resolution in favor of
adjourning ON April II. That date is only
week distant, and it is not believed that the
business of legislation can be closed up in that
tims The matter win be decided Immediately
so far as the Senate is concerned, and as the
Governor is anxious for an early adjournment
the Assembly will easily acquiesce in the Sem

The announcement that Mr.. st. Gaudens has
been selected to design the statue of General
Sherman will give qualification not only to the
great soldiers immediate friends, but to the
general public who delighted to honor him. Mr..
St Gaudens has peculiar qualifications for this
work, and his high rank as sculptor assures
a successful and satisfactory result. Moreover,
his model is to undergo the scrutiny of experts
like Daniel Huntington, w. Nj. Chase, II. e.
Marquand and Professor Ware. The Sherman
statue fund was secured with ease and rapidity,
and the work upon the statue itself will be adj
yanced with as little delay as possible.

ing Just at this time is published in another
column of this issue. Mr.. Morril's talk natu-
rally turns mainly upon his associates resigna-
ton and the choice of his probable successor.
AS for Mr.. Edmunds's retirement from the Sem
ate, MIR. Morrill, says that it is not made for po-
litical reasons, but on accountof MIR. Edmunds's
health and that of his daughter. The various
candidates for the coming vacancy are discussed
frankly, but MIR. Morrill, does not indicate bis
preference among the many able men mentioned
for the honor. The Senator has ideas OF hi;

FATALLY BURNED.
A Little Girl ScOrehed to Death
by Flames.

The alarm from Box II, at $40 O'Clock
last night was for fire that broke out on
the upper floor of the second-story building
at 1l14 Kearny street, occupied by Mrs.
Fernandez, who works at night in down
town restaurant. Mrs. Fernandez is the
mother Of seven children, the eldest about
10 years of age.
Last night the children were left in care
of the eldest one, who locked them up and
then went away. 1t is supposed that in
playing the lamp in the room was upset by
those Of Mrs. Fernandez's infants left there
by themselves. District Engineer John
Wells broke in the door and found Grace
Wilson, aged 4, one of Mrs. Fernandez chill
dren living on the floor envelOped in flames.
He carried her out of the house and sent her
to the Receiving Hospital, where the child
died a few moments later from the effect OF
her Injuries. She was most terribly burned
all over the body. The remains were taken
to the Morgue, where an inquest will be held
to-day.
The other children in the room escaped
without any injury. Mrs. Fernandez has
been divorced and remarked. The deceased
child was the daughter OF her first husband.
The fire spread to the lower stories and
also to the top story of No. ZIG, occupied
by Mrs. de Martini. The total loss by
fire to No 1114 is placed at 5000 and to No.
ZIG at $500.
4 few minutes after the above blaze had
been ex.inguished the explosion of coal
oil lamp IN house occupied by Mrs. (.
Thera, at 522 Broadway, started small
blaze, which WAS put out by the department
with loss Of SO 10 the furniture.

CAMP WAS STRUCK.
Successful Close of the Third
Regiments Outing.
Scenes Among the Tents at Camp Macdonald.
The Regulars Defeated the Nationals
in the Shooting Contest.

Music and mirth had full sway in Camp
Macdonald Saturday night until 1880
o'clock, when the bugle sounded "taps."
Lights disappeared like the will-o'-the-wi
and in few moments a silence settled over
Schuetzen Park that was scarcely broken
until 6 o'clock yesterday morning, when
reyile sounded. Before the last notes of
the bugle had died away citizen soldiers and
regular army boys were stirring, and soon
the scenes of camp life were in progress.
Colonel William Macdonald of the Second
Artillery Regiment, n. G. c., in whose
honor the camp was named, spent the night
as a guest of Colonel Thomas F. Barry,
commander Of the Third, and was one of
the first TO issue from under the canvas in
his pretty fatigue uniform. He was justly
proud of the honor bestowed upon him, and
set both officers and priYates of the Third a
good example by his sodierly, dignihed
bearing.
Sunday in camp appears to the soldier the
same as any other day, and it was so at
Camp Macdonald. The National Guards
men went into the detail of routine affairs
with the vim of recruits, yet with the care
and precision of veterans. There we're no
mistakes and no delays.
THE MORNING DRILL.
For that reason the hours of the morning
passed serenely and the seven companies of

ant incidents during the day. Two Of the
regulars from Angel Island imbibed little
too often while playing in the oowling-alley,
and, after dispute, went at each other as
inrhriated soldiers know best how to do.
They were quickly separated and placed In
the guard-hOuse to repent at leisure.
While the three-leg race was in progress
one of the contestants, whose name was not
known, was overcome by the heat and was
taken off TO San Rafael in an unconscious
condition.
The third incident was the most stirring
of the day and made Abe Friedlander of
Company d the hero of the camp. A team
attached to a buggy, In which was seated a
lady and two children, ran away. The
horses became frightened at the tents and
ran furiOuSly for q hundred yards, until
Fried lander ran ahead of them and grabbed
the reins, which were sdragging in the road.
He was knocked down and dragged some
distance but he held on until others arrived
and the runaways were stopped: Abe Is a
mod est bov and he ran away before lie gave
the rescued his name or asked theirs.
DRESS PARADE.
When the dancing, the games and the tar
get contests were concluded the bugle
sounded for dress parade. The seven COM
panies, with about go men in line, marched
promptly to the east side of tho park, where
the review was held. Captain Delaney, the
popular Adjutant of the regiment soon
brought the guardsmen up In review and
turned the command over to Colonel Mac
donald, who had been requested by Colonel
Barry to assume the command. Without a
hitch the men went through the manual of
arms ana then marched in review as the
band PLAYED Garry Oven"

terday centered in the Maloney- Kearney
contest in Buffers Hand-ball Court. They
had already played one match, which had
resulted 10 victory tor MalOney, though

Maloney and Kearney went into the
courts 10 the best of trim, and both seemed
anxious at every point scored After an
hours playing it stood rubber to rubber
that is to say, each man had gained best

favor of Kearney.

out Of a possible three.
A match between La Vale and Williams
