How smoothly the Tammany machine
works? day or two since and the
slush at the Park Place crossing of Broad
way was knee deep. Tammany's street
sweeper was, as usual absent. An enter
prising citizen who may have been a county
democracy man or even republican gathered
together few boxes and planks and con-
structed high and dry BRIDGE public con-
venience. Then he stood at one end of his
structure and collected whatever folks were
pleased to give him and was getting along very
nicely when Tammany policeman, realizing
tina. the boys were not getting any of the
stuff ordered the removal Of the bridge and
thus compelled people to wade through slush.

Mans inhumanity to man Is marked today
a. it ever was. and deplorsble instance Of the
lack Of charity may be discerned in the case Of
Henry ]. Spencer, who committed suicide be-
cause his having once been confined in peni-
Tertiary prevented either the procuring or the
retention Of employment. Six years ago Spen-
Ger killed Scott Dawson in Allegheny county,
Maryland. For this he sentenced to i'm
prisonment for life, but in view of many cir
cumstsnces that mitigated the crime Gov.
Brown recently granted him q pardon. From
the day when the prison gates were thrown
open Spencer has travelled around in search OF
work by which to support himself, but lie could
not travel more rapidly than did the story Of
his crime. and as often as he secured situation
he lost it just SO soon his employers discov-
cred that he had worn the stripes. wearied by
his fruitless endeavors to earn livelihood the
unhappy man poisoned himself with morphine.
The crime for which he was deprived Of his
liberty hardly less than justifable, and
there certainly no reason why any one
should have hesitated to trust him implicitly,
but prejudice knows no charity, and only in
death was there any apparent relief.
