THE IVES BETTING LAW.

Judge Fitzsimons. of the city Court.
has rendered decision declaring the
Ives Pool law constitutional. 1t has
been argued that IT is not constitutional
to legalize betting on horse races in one
spot and on certain days of the year,
and to declare 1t a felony at all other
spots and on all other days. any more
than It IL constitutional to legalize pick
ing pockets on one side of Broadway on
specified days and make the offense a
felony on the other side of Broadway.
But Judge Fitzsimons holds that, as
horse racing is legal. so the Legislature
has the power to legalize betting on the
tracks where horse racing takes place.
Several efforts have been made to OBJ
tain n final decision on the constitu-
tionality of the Ives law. They have all
failed through some technical objection
or plea. AS this decision can be car
rieu UP to the highest court, the ques-
ton Will now be likely to be set at

BURGLARS CANNOT MAKE CHANGE.

burglar was indicted yesterday by
our Grand Jury for breaking into wo-
mans apartments and robbing her Of
her family silver. Tihs consisted of a
half-dollar which was lying listlessly on
the top OF the bureau In her boudoir
The burglar gays he did not really
mean to burgle lie needed a quarter
and went into the apartments to borrow
that amount, but the lady was asleep
and the only Doodle in sight was the
half-dollar so as gently AMI quietly AS
he could he got away with that. He
didn't like to awaken the dormant owner
Of the coin and he couldn't make the
change, so he swiped the whole silver
service and thereby. though reluctantly
and by no fault Of his own. got into
Jail.
1t Is easy TO see where the blame lies
in this case. II the woman had left a
| little small change on her bureau she

The Lnce Can.

English women almost invariably as
sumo the becoming little lace cap with
the arrival of middle age, while their
American contemporaries appear to shun
them as emblems OF decrepit old age,
and prefer when 1t becomes necessary,
to conceal their thinned locks or bald
places with switches or partial wigs,
which, unless by the purblind, are never
mistaken for the native growth, and
really add to the apparent age OF the
wearer. A dainty little arrangement OF
lace and ribbons is, on the contrary,
softening and becoming to almost any
face. as the young matrons of fifteen or
twenty years ago well understood, when
they set the fashion of breakfast caps
for themselves. But young, blooming
faces and luxuriant tresses need no arti-
ficial aid to enhance their charm, and
the delicate little cap should be left
to the woman OF more advanced years,
whose fading tints are freshened by the
bit Of fiuttering pink or scarlet. which
could hardly be assumed elsewhere with
out ineurring the charge OF frivolity for
its wearer.

THE EVENING SCHOOLS.

Comptroller Myers administered a de-
'erved rebuke to the School Board when
he condemned its financial Irregularities
and its readiness to let teachers and
schools suffer rather than economize on
the frllings and founces of the Depart
ment.
The appropriations are again short, and
the Board wants to discontinue the even
ing schools in order to make up the
deficiency. A short time ago II was pro-
posed to put off the payment OF the
teachers In consequence OF a similar
shortage. The Comptroller charged
truthfully that the Board pursues this
course because 1t knows that It is the
best way TO secure transfers and addi-
tional appropriations, while 1t refuses
to economlze in any OF the paraphernalla
of headquarters or to cut down other ex-
penditures. Mr.. Myers reminded the
Board that the amount appropriated for
each Item ought not to be exceeded, bu,
kept within its limit.
Both Mayor GIlroy and Comptroller
Myers arc resolved that the evening
schools shall not suffer. ana the neces
sary transfers are therefore to be made
But the fault Of the deficiency rests will

Dinners aud Lunoheona

Here 1t Is considered proper to accept
a dinner invitation, though one realizes
he must run as soon as he has finished
the last course. In Paris this would
be considered a great insult, as guests
are expected to spend the evening. the
coffee and liquors being served in the
drawing-room with tea at 10 o'clock.
Simple luncheon courses are deemed
preferable In the best circles to afford
those attending plenty of time to meet
other engagements for the afternoon.
The first course Is generally bouillon,
followed by oysters In some shape. The
third course is the hearty one, either
chops served with Saratoga potatoes
and French peas, or broiled chicken and
Partisan potatoes. The fourth always
should be d salad followed by the des-
sert OF cream, cakes. coffee and often
fruit For any afternoon affair tiny
sandwiches, fancy cakes. ices, chocolate
and tea are sufficient.
Bread and butter plates are used al
both dinners and luncheons, the butter
being in the shape OF n ball In prefer
ence to any other. old-fashioned salt
cellars are In high favor Just now, a
tiny gold spoon. with fieur -de-lis handle,

were edged with tiny black spangles.

A short Hours Man.

To the Editor:
VIII you please publish this In answer to
brothers, Jersey City" These two young men
OF nineteen ought to be ashamed Of themselves TO
desire to work few hours in the evening after
their daily work is done, ito earn an honest
dollar" 1t is Just these people who keep others
out OF work and keep them from earning enough
to prevent their families from starving. In this
world OF Improvement and Inventions the people
ought to work shorter hours, so that those out OF
work could at least have a few days employment
a week 1t is Just this overtime which has thrown
out Of work so many In the United States.
People work ten hours day and in the busy
season work few hours overtime. When the
slack season comes on they are laid of; they
work eight months in the year, and are laid of
four months. How they buy up what they
produce such clothing, &C.! They have all
they can do to keep from hunger. II this system
is not changed what is going to become OF the
people? Let these BROTHERS study up this prob
lem, and they will have something to keep them
busy In the evening. l. r.

like COW playing nute. He carries one at

and fancies every one is looking at him. The
same remark applies to a new suit OF clothes,

looks as II he wishes he were dead and out OF
