Gov. Flower, of New York, has signed the

lican papers of New York have been pro.
testing so vigorously against. The bill re-
duces the number of inspectors of election
in each election district in New York city
and Brooklyn from four to three. thereby
making the election law uniform in all
parts of the state. Heretofore in
New York city and Brooklyn there
have been appointed d, four election
inspectors il. each district two democratic
and two repoblieana ghe law for the re-
mainder OF the state provided for three in
sDeotors, two for thesmajority party and
one for the minority party. The governor
could see no reason why q law good for the
remainder for The state should not he good
for the great cities also. In republican
towns the republicans had two inspectors to
the democrats one; the bill extends the same
system to the democratic cities of New York
and Brooklyn.

The New York World Of Sunday prints
an expose of the plans Of the Reading coal
combine by which its profits are to be
enormously increased at the expense of the
middleman and the consumer by advanc-
ing the price of coal and wiping out the re-
taller. In short the trust means to absorb
the whole anthracite coal business, from
mine to cellar. The idea is to organize a
subordinate company to actually deliver the
coal to the purchaser. The concern will be
part and parcel OF the Reading trust aud
will be called THE Anthracite Delivery
Company" or something like that. The
working model for the scheme is the
Standard Oil Company, which formed a
subordinate delivery company in the hands
of men favorable TO it. The people who had
previously delivered the oil were wiped out
and the oil trade in all its ramifcations was
concentrated in the trust The Reading
people propose to do the same thing with
coal, and if noue Of their plans miscarry
they will be able to squeeze every dollar
and every cent of possible profit out Of every
part Of the anthracite coal business.

do away with . regular day of rest, but
substituted for the religious one day in

was no halfway Law, for everybody who did
not observe the decade or who did observe
Sunday was TO be punished by death. SUM-
day was restored in 1914, but in 1880 the
law was repealed
Church Feeling ut the Bottom OF It
The reason for the repeal was that it
looked like Q concession to the Catholics
France Is willing any day to cut of her owD
nose to spite the Catholics She certainly
did SO when she abolished Sunday. The
day lost none of its prestige in reality. The
rich kept it. The Government kept it It
was rooted into the people by 1,S00 years of
observation. A law could not tear out the
tradition. Even the severe law of the
Revolution establishing the decade had
tailed. 1--WE do rest on the decade" said an
Ouvrier of 1900, ''but we change our shirts
on Sunday" The harm fell on the masses
where the prejudice and narrowness of Coy
ernmerts always fall.
The social evils resulting from having no
legal day of repose have become evident to
the economists of France. A determined
struggle is going on to recover the privilege.

She traces her ancestry back to the days Of
the Spanish conquest. She has been q
widow for about ten years, but even during
her husbands lifetime she managed her
own property, worth many millions, which
came from her ancestral estate.
The Cousino estate-now representing the
property of her late husband, az well as her
own, with the increments due to her execu
tive ability, which is said to be greater
even than her husbands, consists of millions
of money in bank, Of cattle and sheep, Of
coal mines, of copper and silver mines, Of
iron steamships, of real estate in the cities
of Santiago and Valparaiso, smelling works,
Of railroads and farming lands.
From her coal mines alone Sonora Cou-
sino is said to have an income Of $60, 900 q
month, or $3.50, 900 q year. This income
from one form Of wealth alone represents
q branch of her estate which should be
considered, at fair capitalization Of its
income, to amount to SIX, ,000, 600. The ex-
tent of her coal property, however, is known
only to herself; but whereas It costs only
81 So a ton to mine her coal, she readily
realizes for it 81 80 ton. Her own fleet Of
eight iron steamships carries her coal and
ore to market
She owns every house in the town Of
Lota, which has Z, 200 inhabitants, also nine
tenths of the houses in the mining town Of
Soronel. The town of Lots is her favorlte
residence. There she has a magnificent
mansion in the center Of the finest private
park in the world 1t is supplied with all
the luxuries that untold wealth can pro-
cure, brought to her very doors from the
ports of Europe, Asia and Africa by her
own steamships.

eight or ten for repose because ono day in
seven is Of religious origin.
The Danger Of the Extremes.
legislator, that If religion or any agency can
aid them to accomplish their social ends,
that it is folly to refuse to accept it, but
just now common sense has very little to do
with the relations of Church and State in
France, a. the recent fall Of the ministry
amply proves. The whole case is one Of
warning to American cities. It ought to
impress upon them that . great privilege
like day OF repose is much easier lost than
regained, and that when religious prejudice
gets the uppermost in government it il very
liable to injure most those who try to use it
ss weapon.
But it we may In our American cities
take warning from the experience of Paris
in regard to abandoning Sunday laws, We
can at the same time learn much from her
in regards to spending the Sunday. There
Is no question, but that city owes it to her
poor to see not only that they have day of
rest, but that they have some place to spend
it other than in crowded tenements, with
their dresry furnishings, and their bad air
Paris is splendid example of generosity
and thoughtfulness in this respect She
furnishes her people the most beautiful Of
months she sees to it that there II music on
Sunday afternoon in many Of them, that
the fountains play and that the greatest
liberty in enjoying their beauties is
accorded She opens, too, all her galleries
and museums, and charges no admission to
any of them
Those who have watched the crowds of
laboring people in Lincoln and jackson
Parks in Chicago on Sunday know that the
working ability of that city is raised by the
day her people enjoy in the sunlight and
fresh air. They know, too, that the city is
in less danger Of riots and immortality be-
cause OF it Those who have watched the
experiments made in New York in opening
the Metropolitan Museum Sunday, and in
Cincinnati in opening her Art Museum, be-
lieve that putting such refining and edu-
eating collections within the reach of the
laboripg class is moral advantage Is well
as q means of culture. Observation of f.the
people in similar places in Paris emphasizes
the value of giving them these legitimate
and rational pleasures
There is no necessity in doing this, Of
going to the deplerable extreme to which
Paris goes, and consecrating the day to
amusement purely and simply. d.

Reid's Residence Cost Million.
Whitelaw Reid's wife is the daughter of
tho noted millionaire, D. O. Mills, and Mr..
Reds country homo at White Plains is
said to have cost 81 ,0o0, 900. The grounds
upon which John Hays big Washington
home stands cost, about ten years ago, $6 q
foot, and 1t Il worth SIS q foot to-day. You
would have to carpet it with 81 greenbacks
to buy it, and the mansion which Colonel
Hay has built upon it is triumph of
architecture in brick. It was designed by
Richardson, and the brick of its walls and
chimneys is SO arranged that it looks as if
it might have been carved out of an i'm
mense old mountain of red sandstone, and
its interior is one of the most beautiful in
America.
1t was in the White House that Colonel
Hay first lived in Washington, and he came
here as President Lincoln's private secre-
tary at salary probably less than 81, 900 q

joy more. Mr.. Harter's home at Mansfield,
O., is pretty red brick with large lawn
about it. 1t is just opposite the mansion of
Senator Sherman, and is presided over by
Mrs. Harter, who has attracted attention
here as one of the finest looking of the later
arrivals in Washington society.
I took good look yesterday at Silver
Dollar Bland. He is the reverse of Harter
in every respect. He is short, fat and sal
low. Harter's face is a. fresh. az that of a
baby. Bland's looks like tanned leather.
Harter looks clean. Bland appears to be-
long to the great upwashed. He may be
clean, but he don't look it, and his panta-
looms make me think of those of the late
Senator Van Wyck, which were said to
have been cut with circular saw. Bland
is about ten years older than Harter. 1t ID
now IA years since he got the silver dollar
bill, of which Senator Allison is said to be
the author, through the House, and it was
through it that he made his great reputa-
tion. He has been fighting for silver ever
since.
Bland Not . Pleasing Personality.
MI. Bland il of medium height, and he
would weigh, Judge, about 175 pounds
His voice Is deep, hoarse and unpleasant,
and his words come forth from rather large
mouth, the chin of which is ornamented
with sandy brown beard, and the upper
lip Of which has Q mustaehe Of the same
color. Bland cares but little for appear

parks and find the fountains playing and
the people swarming. He can 60 to the
race courses and spend his day waiting for
races which do occur now and then, never
less than an hour between, however. Or he
can stay in the city and spend all he has
saved in the last six days in the cafes and
theaters, which turn all their inventive
powers to beguiling him.
Go to any one of the city gardens where
cafes and spectacles are allowed, say to the
Champ de Mars, the famous Exposition
grounds of 1889. The place is cowded; the
Eifel tower elevators are not idle an in
slant; the cafes are doing fourishing
business; before one of them pantomime
invites you to enter; before another an
orchestra; here q barytene sings the
'Trouvere," there Soprano conspicuously
decollete, mouths love song; clowns pour
forth their nonsense; jugglers perform their
mysteries. Paris does all she can to en-
day when the balls are SO vigorous, the
theaters so lively, the races so crowded
Perhaps it may not be amiss to remark that
there is no day when the amusements are
better patronized by foreigners, especially
Americans.
IL Is the Continental Sunday.
On the surface Paris Sunday is
picture of gaiety of abandon, of free
dom from care, and-do not forget this
point-of good order and quiet, which cannot
be surpassed on the face of the earth.

industrial and commercial life so that every

places of amusement on Sunday he will find
that to a large degree the day is one of labor.
Building goes on almost without inter-
ruption. For the last six months have
watched the repairs making on church
near my lodging. The stone cutter chiseled
away at the tiutings on his columns Sun
days as well as Mondays. 1t was on Sun
day that the protecting fence in front of the
portal came down, and that the rubbish
from the interior was cleaned away. An

nous building stones and drawn by four or
five stout Percherons hitched tandem, drag

which ordinarily allows its employees one
day in seven, averages more than half of
Sundays in building; thus carpenters are
given every other Sunday for rest, but

have them, are at work. They pass the

Among the poorest class of workmen whose.
shops or factories close on Sunday it is the
habit to take Monday too. They spend the
former day in the open air, the latter in the
saloon. They probably would take Tues

This state of things strikes at the weakest
spot in Partisan life-the family. Among
the working people of the city this institu-
