ABOUT TO ADJOURN.

The Legislature has voted to adjourn
sine die at noon tomorrow. 1t has
been thoroughly time-serving, intrigu-
Ing, dishonest body. ready for trades
and bargains, dlsgraced by lobby cor
ruptions. ready to secure or defeat bills
by false counts. now boss-ridden and
now rebellious. 1t 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 1t paid over
to leaders in this city.
Not n single honest. square meas sure
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 than ever
Mr.. Plat has not been fully able to
control the action OF the majority. His
boss-ship this year was by no means
az successful as Mr.. Croker's last year.
The Republican fight in this city will
be now fiercer than ever, and the Re
publicans have demonstrated their I'M
fitness to lead a reform movement.

Tilted 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 aud Last Week
Married Another Girl.

Annie Bernard, nineteen years old.
was taken from her home, l3s Monroe
street, early this morning to Bellevue
Hospital. insane. Her misfortune
brings to light story OF unrequited
love and despair.
Two years ago Annie came from
Russia with her mother. and went to
keep house for Annles brother, Her
man Bernard. He makes cloaks at 1913
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 as 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 lend him 800, so her relatives
say.
You lend me the money" said he,
'a1d we will become engaged at once"
Annie loved Goldberg devotediy. 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.
Isadore insisted on having the money
al 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 week she was con-
fined to her bed. and 1t was 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 Ill. Her
mother saw her drink glass of water.
Tat night the girl was delirious. The
next morning she was frantic, and be-
gan 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 a
policeman.
Patrolman Caulfield called an ambu-
lance from Bellevue Hospital. When
Annie was united she fought so flercely
with the surgeon and three policemen
that 1t was half an hour before they
could put her into the ambulance, Ever
then the policemen were compelled tc
hold her until the hospital was reached

MANIAC AT LARGE.
Tries to Murder n Clerk in Broad
why Drug store.

Edwin C. Siperley. prescription clerk
in II. w. Atwood's pharmacy. 42
Broadway, had a very lively experience
with n crazy man on Tuesday evening.
Siperley was making up 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 and attempted to strike Siperley
over the head with IL.
Siperley grappled with the man, who
raved and swore wildly. Richard Hum
phreys. OF S25 l-2 Broadway, who was
passing, came to Siperley's assistance,
and together they threw the man into
the street. After shaking his fists at
Siperley and Humphreys and cursing
them freely, the fellow ran away. Sip
erley's visitor was middle-aged, stout
and very well dressed. Siperley says that
the man was certainly insane and
meant to kill him.

the Senate demanding rapid transit.
80 far Mr.. Lexow was right Then he
went on TO say that, unfortunately, the
people differed as to how 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 kind OF rapid transit. but TO
prevent all kinds. leaving the IL" 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

COMFY ISLANDS PERIL.

There Is bill at Albany providing for
the annexation OF Gravesend to Brook
Ign. The town has had an unfortunate
experience. and on some accounts might
be well satisfied to shelter itself under
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
lager-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 bakeG would disappear.
Coney Island is such a thoroughly New
York institution. especially on Sundays.
that our city Is even more interested
than Brooklyn In the question of an
neNation. II the consolidation would
do away with the fun and frolic and
turn the island into highly respectable
and sta'd outskirt OF the City of
Churches. New York would rather see
Gravesend left out In the cold a little
longer.

WHAT IT ALL MEANS.

What transparent humbug Is the
pretense 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 and 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. If the credit OF the city
is loaned to the undertaking, 1t ought
only to be because the money can be
raised on bonds at a 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 any rapid transit road in
the interest Of the Elevated system,
while Sinking responsibility. When
Senator OConnor talks about the me-
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
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 It Is not the case Is due to the in
trigues and tricks of the Elevated Rail-
road monopoly.

MISFORTUNE FOLLOWS THEM

Misfortune follows the family OF poor
Susie Martin, whose dismembered body
was found in the cellar of 5l9 West

brother, Tommy, nine years old. and her
sister Katie, three years old, are to-day
in charge of the Sisters OF st. Francis,
to whom they were committed by JUS
tice Ryan In the Jefferson Market Po-
lice Court, because OF the inability of
their parents to support them.
Mrs. Martin complained that her hus-
band. Thomas Martin, drank inces-
sanity, and that what little money he
earned he spent for liquor. She said
she had been dispossessed and was liv-
ing temporarily with Mrs. Kicks in a
basement al $40 West Thirty-ninth street
Justice Ryan wanted Mrs. Martin to
complain of her husband for non-sup-
port, but she pleaded to give him an
other chance, and the Court acquiesced
