SOME MIsPLACED BLESSINGS.

bault. Minn.. that blew q circus tent
to smithereens. Here there wasn't
enough breeze to fill a goatee and the
anemomsters fairly gasped for breath.
We would have given anything for

and would have freely forgiven a cy-

ripped the sizzling backs off Of things.
Twas ever thus. There is plenty of
comfort and Joy In this world. but some
people seem to get It all. while the rest
of US simply look on and wonder why.
Usually It is the people who don't need
II who get II. too. Now. that South Da-
kota tornado would have done us a
great deal OF good II We had had 1t here

and would have given thanks for them,
but they had TO go and assert them
selves In places where. according to all
accounts. they were not only not well
come. but were absolutely de trop.

Mrs Halliday, the Sullivan County
murderess, is under sentence to be exc
cuted at Sing Sing Prison within the
week beginning Aug. g. II the sentence
Is carried out she will be the first wo-
man to meet death in the electric chair.
The prisoner, whose condemnation was
pronounced at Monticello this morning.
is one of the most remarkable criminals
who ever stood before the bar of justice
In this or any other State. Undoubtedly
n murderess. with the blood OF at least
three people on her hands, the only
question which could arise in her case
was that Of her mental condition. Most
people who have followed the case will
consider II as pretty well established
that her methods were not those OF ir-
responsible madness. Her freakishness
bore the marks OF studied effort She Is
a natural criminal. a cruel and crafty
destroyer OF human life. There will be
no injustice in inHicting upon her the
laws full penalty.

That same young Mr.. Sulzer who once
proclaimed his knowledge Of what the
New York State Senate would do with
the New York City reform bills has just
made a speech to the Hoboken Turtle
Club. The gathering which he ad-
dressed was a purely social one, but he
couldn't resist the temptation to inject
a little Tammany politics. He did 1t by
sneering at the Lexow Committee.
Then he experienced an immediate and
decided frost" This was another time
when Mr.. Sulzer thought he knew, but
didn't know. As he grows older, and
the accumulation of Lexow revelations
grows bigger. Mr.. Sulzer will possibly
be able to pick up several points on
what not to say and when not to say 1t.

THE GREAT sAENGERFEsr.

Great will be the honor paid by the
American metropolis tomorrow and the
two succeeding days to the National
Saengerfest on the occasion Of Its glori-
Gus song festival. and well will the
honor be deserved.
A people devoted to music and song
are q people to be trusted. Where is to
be found a deeper incentive to patriot
ism. where a more persuasive exhorta-
ton to tenderness and love. where a
more .eliable indication Of gentleness,
honor and integrity? Says Ruskin. "All
great song, from the first day when
human lips contrived syllables has been
sincere song" The German nation Is a
nation of music and song. Who will say
that this characteristic of her people has
not been the handspring of that devo-
tion to ''fatherland" so deep in every
German heart. Who will deny that II
has helped to make the German-Amer-
ican generally loyal. law respecting.
useful citizen of the Republic, the
earnest enemy of that Anarchy which
has sprung up under all European Gov
ernments?
It Is proper that the President of the
United States, the Governor of the
State and the Mayor of the city should
unite in showing respect for the great
song festival and should grace the occa
sion Of the opening torchlight parade
with their presence. The sight will
be well worth seeing, as the mon
ster concerts In Madison Square Garder
during the festival will be richly worti
hearing. The singers invited numbe
ten thousand, and they include the mos
famous artists Of the day and nearly al
the celebrated associations and societie
in the Union. With such names as Ma
terna, Emma Juch. Lillian Blauvelt
Tavary, Maud Powell. Campanari. Emi
Fischer. Behrens. Herbert and Freid
helm the New York people are familiar
1t is expected that six thousand mem
bers of the societies will pass under tn
triumphal arch at Madison Square o
the night of the parade.
Success. then. to the great Nationa
saengerfest, and may the citizens c
New York delight in uniting to do fu
honor to the festival

The Fashion Outlook.

Quite the newest veil vagary comes
from Paris in accordion-plaited gauze.

of tuft under the chin.
Goodness in warmth, warmth in COOL
ness, dark with light. and in everything,
and above all. contrast-that is the
ideal. To be cool, a man needs to be
to look COOL
Among the newest trimmings are can
vas bands covered thickly with electric
beads and drops of sequins, and moire
satin and velvet bands more or less en-
broidered with Jet beads, which finish
the edge and form a pattern through
the centre.
Lace shawls of the old-time elegance
are resurrected for drapery.

No Tax on Empty Wells.

To the Editor:
The definition Of wealth. as debts due and COL
lectable" is no more absurd than Mr. sanfords
example OF what he calls a single-tax absurdiv.
The oil well increases the value OF the farm while
the well contains oil: with the dlsappearance Of
the oil the Increased value also van
ishes. So there is no danger OF any
tax being collected on empty wells The
single tax is after the full we'll. and the full
est OF all wells is where population has become
third or one-auarter OF his wages for the privi-
eye OF existing close to his employment. Tax
the land values created by the people for the
bcneht OF the people,

Cheered the Students.

Director Edwin Gordon Lawrence, Of
the Lawrence School of Acting" lO6
West Forty-second street, was the
proudest man in all New York last
evening. The annual performance given
by his pupils for the benefit Of the Sick
Babies Fund covered him with glory
Everybody assured him that 1t was the
best exhibition in the history OF his
school, and he was of the same opinion.
The classroom was not big enough
for the students and their friends.
Every chair was occupied. Stage pupils
gave up standing room to visitors, and
sat on window lodges, crowded door
ways and hung over the staircase lead
Ing to the dressing rooms. The gas had
to be turned off at the sconces to keep
peoples wigs and bonnets from getting
on fire.

tainment that distinguished the pupils.

As might have been expected, the
breathing spell allowed to the Brockway
forces between investigations was htil-
lied as a time for impresslng important
witnesses with an idea Of their indiscre-
ton In giving testimony against the
magnate Of the Elmira institution. In
plain words. the opportunity has been
seized to intimidate Reformatory in
mates. Nevertheless, the truth as to the
brutality practised In the name Of re-
form comes out as plainly on the second
inquiry as on the first. Amid the ac-
cumulated mistakes OF acting Gov.
Flower, that OF showing misplaced le-
niency to Brockway and his obedient
Board of Managers becomes more and
more conspicuous as the inquiry goes on.

them more fragile than they really are.

SO popular that recent gift to the Duke

DDS. to say the least A lady acquaintance Of my
