Tribune seldom INDUCES in the newspaper LICENSE
of praising ITSELF nevertheless 1t cannot always
refrain from pointing out where its influence mas
produced marked effect.
Our readers cannot have forgotten the no'e VI
alarm which we sounded to wearers OF exuemey
long boards few weeks ago. Our ADVICE 10 'n'
long-bearded was to trim down their hrsute adorn-
ments as IL was going to be q bad season for now
ino Niagara.like boards We were led to give
tbis warning largely by the unfortunate
exnerience of Mr.. David Smalley, OF
Ne,y-.Jersey. who went to sleep in the
street. and whose long beard was entirely con-
sumed by fire ignited by sparks from passing
locomotive Then a man in Montana who wore q
long beard had it forcibly moved of by vigilance
committee. and various other similar mishaps IN
different parts of the country caused us to advise
all long to pass under the Transforming touch
of the tonsorial operator before the season Oh
prairie fires tornadoes, and so forth, should open
That this warning produced some effect we hrmy
believe. We see by q local New-Jersey paper that
Mr. Smalley has not suffered his beard 10 grow
again: and the news also comes that Senator-elect
PETER of Kansas who has always worn beard
which he has been in the habit Of tucking IN nus
belt during the heat of public debate, OF OF
private argument-the intelligence comes, we say
that Judge PETER has cut of no less than SIX
inches of his beard. But it is from Chicago that
one of the most notable instances of long beard
removal comes-or, perhaps, it is the disposai
of il rather than the removal which is remark
able We learn from Milwaukee paper that
Chicago man named Lowry has just sold his long
whiskers to a merry go-round maker, who Will use
them as tails for his wooden horses The price
was 81.
We cannot, OF course, say positively that MI.
Lowry was directly influenced by The Tribune
to dispose of his whiskers, but everything seems
70 point in that direction. We cannot believe
that a Chicago man would sell part of himself
simply for patry 81. We shall at least claim
the credit for it till we proved 10 be In the
wrong We have found that Mr.. Lowry is
regular reader of The Tribune, and though he
borrows it from a neighbor the good effect on him
must be as great Indeed, as we intimated, we
must claim that we brought about the onslaught
on long boards now being made all over the
country, from Judge PETER down to Mr.. Lowry,
whose whsEers will soon whisk about the finest
merry-go-round at Chicago's Coney Island to the
music of a soft-tOned pedestrian. We cannot,
like some of our contemporaries, claim to have
superseded the attraction of gravitation as the
dominant force in the universe, but we must
insist on credit for the long beard reform.

The prodigality of the increase of the salary
of the treasurer of the Bridge from S4,ooo 10
$4,000 is conspicuOusly illustrated by the demoh-
strated fact that there is no need for treasurer
at all. Until within two or three years the
duties of treasurer were performed by one of the
trustees, at no cost whatever, and they were per-
formed with entire satisfaction, too. When trouble
arose about the disposition of the Bridge patronage
between the two cities it was decided that, as
Brooklyn had the secretaryship, it would only
even things up to give New-York something
equally as good; so the superfuous office OF treas
urer was created and New-York man put in it.
To make handsome addition to the salary of such
an official is an absurdity and reflects no credit
upon the trustees who ordered it. If proof were
lacking that the Bridge is run as political ma
chine this incident would supply it.

The interest felt in the disposition. of the large
estate of the late Charles Pratt is not lessened
by the fact that his will was not filed last week NJ
the time petition was presented to the hines
County Surrogate for its probate. It is considered
certain that Mr. Pratt made ample provision Tor
the noble institute which he founded in Brook
lyn, and TO which he devoted much thoughtful
care. But it is known that he had other plans
for largely beneftting the community for when
he had done so much though 1T IS doubtful
whether they were sufficiently matured for him
to make the necessary requests for their eXccu-
ton. lie had not found time TO work out all his
ideas or to determine the precise lines on winch

The surface railroad companies which ran open
cars after midnight yesterday morning, when such
n cool wind was blowing that even pedestrians
buttoned their coats tightly around them, deserve
severe censure. Such performances give impetus
TO the movement to regulate the running of open
cars by city ordinance

So much has hitherto been made known re-
garding the report of the Rapid-Transit Com
missoners that the formal announcement of
their plans conveys little that is novel. The
Commissioners have dealt with the problem
in liberal spirit and with commendable bold
ness. What they propose is four-track road,
mostly underground, from South Ferry to the
northern limits of the city. When carried out,
it is plain that this plan will measuraby solve
the rapid-transit question for the West Side Of
the city. 1t is only simple justice to say that
the Rapid-Transit Commissioners have per-
formed their duty thus far in such way as to
win hearty and deserved praise from this long
suffering community.

The cosmopolitan character of American life
is shown by the fact that a japanese student has
been selected as commencement day speaker at
the Harvard Divinity School. and colored man
is to be class orator at the University Law School
in this city In few countries would those OF
races alien to the majority of the citizens SO
easily obtain honorable recognition, and it may
be said to the credit of college students that IN
no class of the community is that recognition more
freely accorded than among those who are engaged
in common intellectual development.

A sentence to twelve years Imprisonment is not
too heavy punishment for one convicted OF
setting on fire an inhabited dwelling-house The
young man who has just received the sentence
was of respectable family and had many friends
but he deliberately set fire TO house IN which
many persons were sleeping, caused alarm to the
occupants of the house and endangered their lives
Two or three of those who lived in the house were
invalids and would have found it difficult to escape
if the fire had not been promptly extinguished.
Few convictions of arson in the first degree are
secured and the punishment when verdict OF
guilty is secured should be heavy.

The Bridge Trustees have received from Cor
poration Counsel Clark an opinion that the re-
cent increase of Bridge employees salaries was
illegal Mr.. Clark takes the ground that the
trustees had no authority to delegate their
power in this matter to committee The ques-
ton now is whether the trustees themselves
will take the responsibility of advancing salaries
on the liberal scale adopted by the committee.
Their time is short, since their successors may
be named at any time after June 1, and public
sentiment has declared itself so strongly against
the increase of salaries that nothing but logged
determination 10 have their own way can pre-
vent them from needing it,

pattons Committee on Theological Seminaries,
so far as it relates to the Briggs case was pre-
sented to the General Assembly yesterday.
When the debate upon it is opened this morn

the hands Of all the members. According to

LONDON, Nov. 10.-A virulent epidemic
of influenza is causing great alarm
throughout all parts of Europe. 1t is re
ported from many points, including st.
Petersburg in the north and Bordeaux in
the south.
In various parts of England it is preva-
lent, though the form of the disease does
not appear so severe there rs in other
countries. II is sufficient, however, to
cause CONSERVATION. which is increased in
consequence of the almost sensational &C
counts that come from the continent In
ST. Petersburg the poorer parts of the city
seem TO have entirely escaped the disease
while families inhabiting the weather
neighborhoods suffer greatly.
In Bordeaux and other French seaports,
whole families are i'll and a number of
deaths have occurred. So widespread Is
the extent of the disease that the

ordinary scourge, hesitate in what direc,

NEW FLAG FOR BRAZIL.
To Be Carried by the insurgents
Against Fonseca's Troops.
GOVERNMENT VESSELS DESERT
Ample Funds for the Purposes of the
Junta-The Cause Of the Dictator Grow
ing weaker-Fonseca Good Republi-
can, Says a Brazilian Minister.

BUENos AYREs, Nov. 10, 1s91.-Latest
advices from Rio Grande do Sui, Brazil,
say that additional towns in that State
have gone to the side of the Provisional
Junta. Among them are Santinoel, San
Lins, Parana and Cruzalta.
The enlistment of infantry and cavalry
among the people of Porto Allegro, the
capital of Rio Grande do Sui, is actively
carried on
: Five of the government feet are report
ed TO have given their adhesion To the
Junta, which has adopted as its nag a
white and red globe
With the exception OF the Rio Grande du
Sui all the States of Brazil are tranquil.
There does not appear TO be the least truth
in reports of revolt in Para.
RIO JANEIRo, Nov. 19.-From dispatches
received here to-day il is learned that the
insurgents are fortifying the city OF Rio
Grande and making preparations for re-
pelling any advances by fonseca forces:
The government has ordered force or
troops To proceed to the city of Desterro,
capital of the State of Santa Catharina,
460 miles southwest of Rio Janeiro. IL
contains the palace Of the President of the
province and an arsenal, and is defended
by several forts.
LONDON, Nov. 19.-Private dispatches
from Brazil state that the mouth of the
Rio Grande river has been obstructed by
sinking Two ships in the channel. At the
same time the buoys marking the entrance
TO the river and the regular channel have
been removed The river is protected by
heavy modern artillery placed in COM
manding positions.
The Junta is in full control of ali the
military stores in the State and of the gov
ernment factory for the making of muni-
tions of war.
The provincial banks and private per-
sons are Offering TO supply the Junta with
ample funds to carry forward the plans
that may be decided upon for maintaining
the independence of the State.
The officers bent by the Dictator to take
the places of those who have cast in their
fortunes with the insurgents, assert that
several men-of-war are now on the way to
the Rio Grande, and that Others are being
made ready to follow.
Refugees from Rio Janeiro who have
reached Montevido express the opinion
that Fonseca will not be able long to
maintain himself His cause is lost, they
say. Only the fear of mob violence now
restraints the discontented opposition at
the Brazilian capital from active steps.
PARIS, Nov. 19.-The Voltdirc pub
fishes an interview with q. de Piza the
Brazilian Minister to France, in which he
denies that Fonseca is exercising dictator
ship. Fonseca is n sincere Republican,
he says, and will undoubtedly always
bow to the national will. Mr. de Piza be
leves that the new elections will result in
the return of thoroughly Republican
congress. The monarchists have not the
slightest chance of coming into power.
