UNDRESSED IN THE STREET.
A Negro Went Calmly to sleep
While n Crowd Looked On.


At o'clock this morning a tall. good
looking mulatto. wearing good clothes
and a natty mustache sauntered non
down Sixth avenue with an
air of ennui.
At the southwest corner OF Twenty
eighth street he stopped. stretched his
arms. yawned and gazed about vacant

waistcoat. following 1t up with other
portions Of his apparel until ne had
reduced his raiment down to single
gauge undershirt. and stood surround
ed by a gaping crowd;
Not at all distracted by the stares Of

and when he had got down to, the
condition described he calmly lay down
on the sidewalk. and using his discarded
sleep. amid the shrieks and boots OF at
least 800 people who had gathered by
that time.
. He was snoring. melodiously when Po-
street station, arrived on the scene. He
hastily drew out the improvised pillow
and snatching the largest garment he
reused him by beating a tattoo on the
soles OF his bare feet.
After several whacks, the sleeper
awoke, yawned, stretched out MS long
black arms, and gazed with reproach
at Policeman Rein. A few vigorous
tugs and the man was behind the
swinging doors of the saloon on the
corner. After him. went his clothing.
and few minutes later he was in prop
err array for a walk to the station-h house
under escort OF the valiant Rein
There he described himself as George
7. Ireland. thrty-eight years old. a
cook, at West Twenty-eighth, street.
Asked TO explain his sensational freak,
he simply replied: II was awful sleepy"
In Jefferson Market It was decided to
send Ireland to Bellevue Hospital for

A dish should ever taste better than Il

A crowded table Is never pleasing;
dishes need relief and the more vivid

One of the most persistent causes OF
worry and torment of the economical
housewife is the extravagant fashion
cotton hosiery has of fading. One good
rule is to buy the best. for though the

streaked effects. After the first washing
very few fancy colors can pass through
the ordeal of the wash-tub without
