RUDYARD KIPLINa has again
broken loose, and this time he attacks
New York. So much has the city
disguised him that he seems unable
to find words in his crude but pictur-
esque vocabulary sufficiently strong
for the subject. Everything about
the town is bad, and the more he
studied it, the more grotesquely bad
it grew. 1t is bad, he says, in its
streets, in its police, and in its sani-
tary arrangements. The manage
ment of the town hs %denounces as the
outcome of squalid barbarism and Of
reckless extravaganza. Some time
ago this conceited cad and over-ad-
vertised upstart expressed his opinion
about Chicago, and New Workers
were greatly delighted thereat, Very

company was of course meant by this.
At the last annual meeting an attempt
was made to include the new company.
1t was stipulated that the whole num-
Der of firemen paid should not exceed
40, but nothing was said as to how the
money should be divided between the
companies. When it came time for the
trustees to draw the order, Monday
night, the Volunteers returned a member
snip of Il; the other company made no
return. There being no basis to pay
upon and no means of arriving at a di-
vision Of the money, no payment could
be made. The firemcn should certainly
have their money; but how they can get
it till the village acts, is what no one
can find out And when they are at it,
they should do a thorough job
