GROSS NEW SHRINE ON THE BRIDGE.

The girls are growing crueller and more
selfish all the time. And this helps the
suicide record 10 break itself every once
in while. One of the many instances of
maiden's increasing mhumanity TO man
was furnished here Wednesday night,
when young chap; with more love unG or
his upper left vest pocket than common
sense under his hat, by dint of exertlon
that would have reduced much kindlng-
wood to proper size for the kitchen range,
climbed out on TO one of the tracks of
the bridge cars and sat there yearning for
a crowded train to ccme along and scatter
him into the thereabouts and hereafter.
He wanted to die for love. The object
of his alteration had iuggled with his
heart for II while, and then after throwing
it down and digging the heel Of No. Il,
Louis Quinze shoe into 1t, Ind given it
back TO him and waltzed of with another
fellow.
Poor Young man His certainly is q
curious cerebral equipment He ought
to have known that there is still hope for
battered hearts. He ought to have known
this Is leap year. and that the world is
iull of girls, young and cid. fair and
so-so, 10 whom mans heart, no matter
bow badly stove in, 30 long as one little
pulsing throb Is left in il, would be ac-
cepted as heaven sent gift. And more
than all else, he ought TO have known
that every time IA love-lorn youngster
adds TO the sum Of adolescent idlocy by
killing himself tor his sweetheart he only
cnuses the other sex to preen its wings,
fuss with all Its feathers, and put OH a
gnudler and laughter ar.
suicide is not the remedy, boys. No,
indeed. Get another girl. The woods are
full of them. But If You must hari- kari

Don't keep the nerves Of "a trainload Of
people packed 80 tight that one man can
not get his hands into another's cont

tion.
Don't do it for various other reasons,
and principally because some OF these
days the Bridge Trustees may take it INTO
their heads to sell standing room ON the
front platforms OF trains and to rent ont
the front window space of cars. and then
We will have established in our midst a

The LEGISLATURES WORK.

Although tho Legislature closed its reg.
ular session yesterday. its record is not
yet complete. At the extra session called
by the Governor. TO begin next Monday
evening, the Legislative Apportionment
one of the most important measures of the
year, will doubtless be completed, and
the Governor may recommend any other
Legislation he may deem expedient.
Whatever may be said of the Legisla-
ture of 1892, its work will make it memo
rable in the annals OF the State. 1t has
restored TO the people the right Of equal
representation, a right which lies at the
foundation of free government. and which
has been denied them for years through
the injustice of partisan ship. 1t has given
the State nm opportunity to revise and
amend its fundamental law. which. in
many of its provisions. it has outgrown.
The enumeration of the population, the
Congressional and Legislative reappor.
tionments. the Constitutional Conyen.
tion, already indorsed by the popular
vote, are public acts demanded by the
best interests of the State.
In other directions the work OF tho
session, although open to criticism, has
been fairly good. The appropriations
are less in amount than they have been
for the last three yenrs. The tax rate is
unusually low. A commission has been
raised to examine the methods of taxation
and the tax laws. with the object of bring.
ng about IN )re just assessment of per-
sonal property. In smaller matters tho
scales are balanced. The Telephone bill
was killed; but so also was the Savings
Bank bill. Probably the bad has been
about Offset by the good.
OF course. partisan opponents denounce
the Legislature in unmeasured terms.
One rabid party organ brands the major.
Ity as thieves and ruffians. A more
reasonable and calm Republican journal
admits that the work of the session has
been fairly good. Comptroller MYERS,
who is angered by the sue cess Of some
reprehensible jobs. says Praise the
Lord " for the close of the session.
Tho real faults q: the legislation of
1892 have been its too abject subsection to
the control OF political leaders and the
greed of some individuals who nre found
i'll every Legislature ready tor " consid-
erationB and Arguments we'll under
stood at Albany. But, after oil, tho ver-
dict Of the people will probably be that
the session OF 1899 has brought forth
more good than evil.

HASTE NOT NECESSARY.

The Election Inspectors bill is in the
Governors hands, and there need be no
haste in the action of the Executive upon
the measure. He has ,ple time for de-
Iiberate consideration before he makes up
his mind whether TO approve it or 70 let
it die without his signature.
The chief excuse or justification for the
bill is that it only places New York City
on the same footing with the other coun-
ties of the State. all of which have three
inspectors of election.in each district.
two Of whom belong to the dominating
political party. As The EVENING WORLD
has before insisted. this would be good
reason for providing for non parts
election inspectors in every district, but
it docs not Justify partisan inspectors in
this city. The leyelling ought to be up.
not down.
But tine inspectors in districts outside
of New York are elected by the people. IL
a strong factional division exists in one
party, it may have strength enough to
elect an inspector to represent its inter-
ests. In New York the new bill pro-
poses that the leaders OF the majority
party appoint their own two nspec-
tors aud rule out all opposing fac
tions. The people have no voice or
power in the matter.
Gov. FLOWER will Of course recognize
this radical condition in reaching his con-
illusions as to the justice and expediency
of the bill.

The Cover OF the Blaine box again
springs open, and its occupant once more
pops into sight. This time the operator
is ex-Railway Commissioner w. S. CAR
PELLER, who Processes to speak by the
card when he announces that Mr.. BLAINE
is ready and willing to accept the Repub-
licau nomination. But tho condition Is

day or Two ago the irrepresslble
CHRIS MAoEE declared by authority that
Mr.. BLAINE was out of the race; that his
life would be sacrificed if he should un-
dertake the exacting duties of a four
years term, and that lie would not accept
the nomination if rendered him " GU Il

Now here again is food for reflection for
the many ardent friends of the leading Ro-
publican statesman. 1t is possible they may
gather consolation from Mr.. CAPPELLER's
story and find tho seemingly contradic
tory statements reconcilable. There are
conditions attached TO each announce

will accept if the nomination comes TO
him 'nolens volens." On the other
hand it is asserted TINT he'will not accept

"POl.lY MlDDlES."

1t is a relief to occasionally come across
something that departs from the ordinary,
that removes itself from the fatal groove OF
conventionality and endeavors to establish
fresh field. For this reason "Polly Middles,"
the Fantastic operetta" in two acts, by
Archibald Clavering Gunter, now to be seen
at the Fourteenth Street Theatre, will COM
mend itself to the public. 1t is odd, unusual,
aud agreeably unexpected. II takes mixed
party OF festive nineteenth century spirits,
including Drury Lane soubreJte and a cap
tain IN the Coldstream Guards, from the
ruins OF Pompeii in 1877 to the Pompeil In
the reign OF Vespasian, eighteen hundred
years earlier. Polly Mlddlcs, the Drury Lane
soubrettC becomes Paula, slave girl, and
the Hon. Cecil Howard, or the Col1streams,
is found as L. CeciliuS Dudimius, Roman
swell.
The change from tho ruins to the old,
proud city Is very cleverly effected; In fact, the
idea Is thoroughly well carried ouJ In every
way. The dialogue Is bright, and s)me OF the
situations are exceedingly ludicrous. Mr..
Gunter has scarcely written anything better
than Polly Midd.es," and II his librettO had
teen fortunate enough to capture the right

fective enough In It's way; another is a solo
intrusted TO Miss Plxley. As a general thing,
however, the music is beneath contempt.
