0 TO ADJOURN.

The Legislature has voted TO adjourn
sine die at noon tomorrow. 1t has
been Il thoroughly time-serving. intrigu-
Ing. dishonest body. ready for trades
and bargains. disgraced by lobby cor
ruptions. ready to secure or defeat bills
by false counts, now boss-ridden and
now rebellious. II has won the credit
OF reviving the lobby in Its full strength
and OF bringing back the money for Jobs
to Albany for distribution among the
members instead OF having II paid over
to leaders In this city.
Not a single honest, square measure
has been put through on its merits and
In the public interest. Some good bills
have been passed, and in the end Ger.
tain reform measures for this city have
been wrung out of the fears OF the
majority through the power OF the
caucus. But II has not been an honest
reform Legislature, and its work leaves
the Republican party in a more inhar.
monious condition han ever.
Mr.. Plat has not been fully able to
control the action of the majority. His
boss-ship this year was by no means
as successful as Mr.. Cookers last year.
The Republican fight in this city will
be now fiercer han ever, and the Re
publicans have demonstrated their un.
fitness to lead a reform movement.

JACKsoNvILLE's JOKE ON ART,

Art doesn't do much d~ilettante-ing in
jacksonville. Fla. Greek goddesses or
Homeric bellies that float down that way
have to be up TO date. The women Of
Jacksonville wear gowns n sport re-
veres, gigot sleeves and spotted vests.
and they want all the maids and ma
irons OF mythology to be in the same
boat.
A jacksonville bookseller has Just been
convicted of felony for displaying and
selling II reprint OF Rubens's famous
painting, THE Judgment Of Paris" The
prosecuting lawyer said he would knock
down any man who dared to bring such
a picture into his house. The learned
Judge took the view tina the painter
had made n mistake in not clothing the
talr divInit!es that glow and palpitate on
his canvas. And the jury, all white men,
too. after two hours declaration, decided
that art can't go Eaillvanting around
jacksonville in its bare pelt.
Florida aesthetics, II there are any
down there, will all lay low" after
reading the Jacksonville County Solicit
tors threat to slug anybody who crosses
his threshold with a chunk Of undrapel
art The culture situation in the
orange-groYed state must make t,a
alllGators yawn. Perhaps some OF the
more sensitive megasaurlans will adopt

experience, and on some accounts might

Brooklyn's reform wing.
but II the annexation should take place
what would become Of Coney Island? The
Brooklyn laws would close Coney Island
on Sundays. The dance-houses, the
iager-beer saloons and the elephant would
be shut Up. The gay crowds of bathers
would no longer be seen along the shore
and the clam bakeu would disappear.
Coney Island is such a thoroughly New
York institution, especially on Sundays,
that our city is ever more interested
than Brooklyn in the question OF an
~nexation. II the consolidation would
do away with the fun and frolic and
turn the island into a highly respectable
and staid outskirt OF the City OF
Churches, New York would rather see
Gravesend left out in the cold a little

why Drug store.
Edwin C. Siperley. prescription clerk
In Fl. w. Atwood's pharmacy, $40
Broadway, had n very lively experience
with a crazy man on Tuesday evening.
Siperley was making up n prescription
when a man stepped into the store and
startled Siperley by announcing. with
many curses, that he had come to kill
him. All the other clerks were out, and
no customers were in the store.
Get out" replied Siperley, ''or I'll
call the police"
you won't have time" said the fell
low, who seized a big siphon of settler
water n attempted to strike Siperley
over the head with 1t.
Siperley srappled with the man, who
raved and swore wildly. Richard Hum
phreys, of s25 IL Broadway, who was
passing, came to Siperley's assistance.
and together they threw the man into
the street. After shaking his fists at
Siperley n Humphreys and cursing
them freely, the fellow ran away. Sip
erley's visitor was mid~dle-aged. stout
and very well dressed. Siperley says that
the man was certainly insane and
meant to Kill him.

INSANE MANS ANTICS
He Frightened the Tenants in a
House in Pike Street.
Then Partially Disrobed and Ran
towards the River.
Left Behind a Bank-Book in James
j. kclly's Name.

The people in the vicinity OF 81 Pike
street are greatly exercised over the
insane antics OF n strange man there
last night, and they fear that he has
committed suicide.
The building at 81 Pike street is n
large seven-story brick structure near
Ing completion. Parts Of three of the
floors are already occupied by shirt and
vest makers.
About I o'clock a strange man en-
tered Silverman's shirt-making rooms
on the fourth floor. He wore only
trousers and shirt. and his manner indi-
Gated that he was insane. He inquired
for Joe" and On being informed that
no such person was there. he left. He
hen went to II vest-making establish
ment on the third floor. md wanted a
waistcoat made while he waited. He
spoke in an irrelevant, foolish way, and
became indignant when his order was
refused
An TOUR later several people heard an
unearthiy yell and saw the man dash
down the stairs and run towards the
river. Policeman James Gilmartin, of
the Madison street station, who was
patrolling his beat In the vicinity, was
notified. and he made a careful search
OF the building.
In "A corner OF the hallway OF the sec
ond floor he found n handsome Melton
o~vercoat. n sack coat, n pair OF lace
shoes, n pair OF socks, n pair OF two
button kid gloves and "A derby hat.
The clothing bore the name of n Bow
cry clothing house, and the hat con-
tanned the name OF a ~well-known Bow
cry halter.
In the inside pocket OF the sack coat
was abank book, No. 247, 2S2, of the Will
iamsburg Savings Bank III the name Of
ame J. Kelly. Policeman Gilmartin
conveyed the clothing to the Madison
street station. where 1t is held for an
owner.
The police OF the Madison street sta

made no efforts to ascertain whether
the man committed suicide or to find II

street to-day. by an Evening World"

AND INSANE.
Pretty Annie Bernard Driven
Crazy from Unrequited Love.
Isadore Goldberg's Affections Died
When He Couldn't Get 500.
So He Deserted Annie and Last Week
Married Another Girl.

Annie Bernard, nineteen years old,
was taken from her home, 1875 Monroe
street, early this morning to Bellevue
Hospital. insane. Her misfortune
brings to light a story Of %unrequited
love and despair.
Two years ago Annie came from
Russia with her mother, and went to
keep house for Annie's brother, Her
man Bernard. He makes cloaks at l03
Orchard street.
1t was only a few months after hei
arrival that Annie met Isadore Gold
berg. an east side jeweller.
He was one of the few friends Annie
had. Friendship ripened into love, they
were constantly together. and the
mother and brother looked with favor
upon Isadore rs the future husband Of
Annie.
The young woman had some money
which she had brought with her from
Russia. Goldberg knew this, and nine
months ago, one Sunday evening, asked
Annie to end him 800, so her relatives
ray;
and We will become engaged at once"
Annie loved Goldberg devoleaiy. but
she wanted to be quite sure he did not
want to marry her for her money. SO
she told him she would not lend him
the money until they were married.
lsadore insisted on having the money
at once, but Annie wouldn't give 1t to
him. The Jeweller went away angry,
and two days later he became engaged
to another woman.
When Annie heard of this. she became
distracted. For a week she was con-
fined to her bed, and 1t IA feared she
would lose her reason.
Early last week Goldberg married.
Annie heard of the marriage, but said
little until Friday night. Then she told
her mother that she, felt quite i'll. Her
mother saw her drink a glass of water.
Tat night the girl was dellrious. The
next morning she was frantic, be-
raj to tear her hair out by the roots.
A physician vas called. and remained
in attendance until to-day.
The young woman kept getting worse
until midnight last night. when the
doctor and her mother were compelled
to tie her to the bed and send for n
policeman.
Patrolman Caulneld called an ambu-
lance from Bellevue Hospital. When
Annie was united she fought so fiercely
with the surgeon and three policemen
that II was half an hour before they
could put her into the ambulance. Even
then the policemen were compelled to
hold her until the hospital was reached.

Fried Lentlls.
Cold Meat.
Milk Toast.
Corn Cakes and Honey.
Tea.
Thirsty Babies.

1t seems strange. but true IT is, that
there are yet in existence young moth
ers who never give their young babies a
drink of water. Water Is as necessary
to a child's well-being as good food and
its bath. Two or three times a day the
baby should be given a drink Of water,
say a tablespoonful. at regular inter-
walls. Try the little mite n zee how
he relishes it. Furthermore. 1t will. II
given at regular intervals, keep the
bowels In good order. The other day, by
the way. a prominent physician was
called In for a severe case of vomiting
and sore throat. He prescribed a table,
spoonful Of water and one of milk to be
taken separately every hour. His pa
tient laughed, but had the good sense to
obey, and sure enough, In a few hours
she was well enough to get UP and at
tend to her work.

WHAT 1T ALL A

What q transparent humbug IL the
p%retense at Albany of giving us Rapid
Transit.
Rapid Transit for the city OF New
York, rendered absolutely necessary by
reason OF the peculiar conformation OF
the city. has no more to do with politics
than with the Bible. 1t Is a question OF
the prosperity OF the city n the con
%venience and comfort OF the people. A
real rapid transit road ought to be built
by practical, experienced men and not
by politicians. II the credit of the city
Is loaned to the undertaking, 1t ought
only to be because the money can be
raised on bonds at n much lower rate
of interest by the city than by contrac-
tors, and without any idea that the cost
OF construction will eventually fall on
the city.
When the Legislature provides for a
bipartisan Rapid Transit Commission
II has only one object in view, to OBJ
struct and kill n rapid transit road in
the interest OF the Elevated system,
while Sinking responsibility. When
Senator O'Connor talks about the ne
cessity of preventing the project from
being controlled by Democrats, he sim.
ply does the work Of the Manhattan
corporation.
a bipartisan commission would mean
u political commission The men in
trusted with the work from first to last
ought to be practical engineers and
capable business men. Until this is Sc.
cured, rapid transit talk is humbug.
That 1t Is not the case Is due to the in
trigues and tricks OF the Elevated Rail-
road monopoly.

the Senate demanding rapid transit.
30 far Mr.. Lexow was right. Then he
went on to say that. unfortunately. the
people differed as to % rapid transit
shall be secured. In this Mr.. Lexow
was wrong. The people do not differ
among themselves. 1t is the Tammany-
Manhattan combine which disputes the
way. And their object Is not to forward
a particular kline OF rapid transit, but to
prevent all kinds, leaving the l. roads
in the enjoyment OF their present profit
able monopoly. Does the Republican
majority In the State Senate really
enjoy itself In the position OF aiding and
abetting this conspiracy?

Onions.

For a hard. tight cough, nothing ID
better than to eat a raw onion. This
will loosen the phlegm almost immedi-
ately. Onions are also recommended
as a preventive Of grippe and other
epidemic diseases Of a catarrhal ma
ture, n are said to be when eaten raw
before retiring an unfailing remedy for
insomnia. 1t Is also one Of the most
wholesome and nutritious foods. inc has
been SO used from the most remote an
tiquity. 1t is a native of India and also
of Egypt, where 1t grows in great per-
fection>a and is said to be of exquisite
flavor. The Bermuda onions are the
finest brought to our markets.
1t is said that in Spain and Portugal
a raw onion, with a piece Of bread,
often forms the dinner Of a laboring

amount OF heterogeneous matter, and
doubtless would be used more than they
now are II their odor were less pro-

Redishcs.

haoishes possess valuable medicinal
properties. They are demulcent, slim
uiating n diuretic and should be eaten
freely when fresh and crisp. They are
usually eaten with salt only, but IL
sliced Thin are very nice with a French
dressing. In this country the radishea
themselves are rarely cooked. though
the tops of young radishes are often
boiled. The radish is a native of Asia.
where 1t has been cultivated from the
most ancient times. Nearly an inch Of
the green top should be left on the
radishes when they are prepared for the
table n this little portion of the top
should be eaten, as the peculiar proper
ties they possess help to digest the
radish itself.

Care Of Wet Shoes.

There are few things more disagree
able than to put on a pair OF stiff, brittle
shoes that ave been thrown aside 10
dry after a rainy day. Here is a formula
that claims to eradicate the trouble:
First wipe off gently with a soft cloth
all surface water and mud: then. while
still wet, rub well with paraflne oil.
using flannel for the purpose. Set them
aside till partially dry, when a second
treatment with oil Is advisable. They
may then be deposited in a conveniently
warm place, where they will dry grad
ually and thoroughly. Before applying
French kid dressing give them a final
rubbing with the flannel still slightly
dampened with parafine and the boots
will be soft n flexible as new kid and
be very little affected by their bath in
the rain,
