KALN0kY'S VISIT TO HUMBERT.
Regarded as OF High Political I'M
portance in Europe.

LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE visit Of Count
kalnoky. the Austro-Hungarian Minister
Of Foreign Affairs TO King IIumbert OF
Italy, Is commented upon by the whole
press Of Germany as an event Of the
highest political import, II Is regarded
as n complement to the Toulon and
Spe2ia fetes.
In Vienna the visit comes as a COM
plete surprise. and various reasons are
assigned for IT, one of them being the
arrangement Of a marriage between the
Crown Prince of Italy and an Austrian
princess This theory, however, is denied
in many quarters. Another reason put
forward is that Count Kalnoky has
Srown alarmed at the creation Of a Rus
sian squadron in the Mediterranean, and
a third is that his mission is to complete
some new details in regard to the Drei-
pund, which were arranged by the Ger
man and Austrian Emperors at their re-
cent meeting.

by THEIR ACTS"

The Republican politicians are al
ready considering what they shall do
with the state Legislature. ot which
they have captured both branches. AL
ready the scramble for the spolls has
commenced, and we begin to hear
names mentioned for Speaker as "PIatt's
candidate. or "pntterson's candi-
date or "Gibbs's candidate" or
the candidate OF some other well-worn
and job blistered politician. But nobody
finds a Speaker suggested as the peo-
pies candidate because Of his honor, his
honesty and his entire freedom from
political deals and corrupt bargains.
Rumors are also current OF Contests
in both Senate and Assembly, and OF
the intehtion of the leaders to seize upon
two-thirds Of both houses by u~nseIting
Democrats and putting debated Repub-
leans in their places. This Is in order to
obtain a two-thlrls vote. so as to pass
bills over the Democratic Governors
veto.
A tWo-thirds vo:e would mean a carni-
val of bad legislation. We should have
new apportionment laws Of a partisan
character; a renewal Of haysced legislH-
tion for cities. and combines" and dick
erings with municipal bosses that would
cast the old Tweed bargains into the
shade.
a jobbing Speaker would mean a scs-
sion of plumber and lobby rascallty and
an extension Of corruption beyond the
session. 1t is expected and desirable
that Investigations should be made of
a number of municipal matters. If hon

used for Matchmaking and bargaining
they will be more damaging to the public
interests than no Investigations at all.
A bad Speaker will make dishonest
commissions A Plat Speaker would
make Plat investigators, and a
Patterson Speaker would make Patter.
son investigators. Everybody under
stands that would mean.
The Republicans control the Legisla-
ture not by reason Of their own strength
but because of temporary Democratic dis
affection. They will be Judged by their
acts. If the" rest satisfied with the
power they legitlmately possess, refrain
from resorting TO their old policy of re-
versing the viii Of the people. pass wise
and beneficial laws and put upon the
Democratic Governor the responsibility
of vetoing them II he sees At, they will

e%rooklyn's First Fair Held by Two
Good Little Girls.
a Child Made Happy Inst Year:

THE SUBSCRIPTIONS,

Two little tots in cute cloaks and lib
,rty caps came into The Evening
World Office yesterday with their
mother. They had 4 pasteboard box big
ger than the Two Of them put together
and II was full OF toys-tln horns, balls,
ju~mp!ng-jacks, &c. The mother explained
that this was the little ones offering for
The Evening Worlds Christmas Tree.
The tiny gift-bearers were Walter and
Robbie Silverberg. agel four and two
and a half years respectively. They felt
very happy over the fact that they were
permitted to accompany tho box to the
newspaper Office. where they confidently
expected to see Il placed In Santa Claus's
own hands. The transfer of their toys
to some poor children who knew not the
Joy of a jumpinE-jack or the fun there
is in a deep-toncd tin horn, was a real
plea sur TO the little men.
1t is possible for grown folks to feel
even greater pleasure in helping so beau
tiful a charity as the christmas-Tree

know the world and have rubbed up
against It's cruel side. felt its hardships.

tons, and so they know the gloomy sur
rounlings in which Santa Claus finds
the numerous wards of this Fund on
Christmas morning. Grown folks know
that for countless thousands there is no

Acknowledged, glare-eycd children have
not Crusts to eat. let alone toys to play
with. Little folks in fortunate Circum-
stances cannot appreciate as keenly as
their elders the ~poignaaCy Of poverty,
particularly at a time when the whole
world seems to TEEN with plenty and
throb with joy. II these youngsters find
SO much pleasure in giving to this char
ity. how much more pleasure older per-
sons will find in 1t. The consciousness
Of doing good means more in mature
years than 1t does in youth. There are
hundreds and thousands of young people
in the Christmas-Tree Army. but there
should be hundreds of thousands of
adults.
Let the old folks put themselves in the
places OF the poor tots of the tenements
as they are on Christmas Day. Would
they like to be without toys while other
children had them? Would they like 10
be without candies. or without good,
warm. comfortable mittens. muf1lers or
caps? Not much. Then they shouldn't
let the tenement tots suffer. They
should give something to the Christmas
Tree Fund. If it is only a dime or a
quarter.

Women are allowed far less latitude
of position thar men, n now Il Ia
said that the simple crossing of the
legs should not be INDUCED in even in
the privacy of u W rooms, since 1t
invites serious physical Ills. Men, when
free from restraint, seldom sit with
their two feet on the floor; they raise
one till the ankle rests lightly across
the other knee. and no harm Is done.
Women rest the entire weight of one leg
upon the upper part of the other; the
pressure Injuries the sensitive nerves and
muscles. and often produces sciatica and
other serious troubles.
