Some committees who should
meet on Thursday, the legal day,
hurry up their reports at short

A PERTINENT POINT.
A Citizen Thinks That the Price OF
"our Daily Bread" is Extor-

nate.
"There is" said a citizen, "no
greater necessity of life than bread,
none that is more readily sold or
more generally used and yet there
is no article for daily consumption
upon which there is a more eXtor-
innate profit. Strange to say, the
five cent loaf now, with flour at
$3.50 per barrel weighs the same,
and even less, than it did with
flour that was selling at from So to
$40 per barrel and people cannot
understand this-what they re-
gard to be an imposition"
"Now the usual five cent loaf
weighs from one to one and a half
pounds, usually the former figure
rules, and the flour costs not quite
cent and quarter, this, with the
labor, profit, ETC., should not cost
more than 25s, and yet 80 is de-
manded and of necessity paid"
ain England, | am informed,
the price of bread is regulated by
the value of flour and it runs from
So to l2e the four pounds. Accord
ing to the act of Parliament
loaves must be either two or four
pounds and be weighed, except
fancy bread and in this, like here,
you are at the mercy of the baker.
If the ordinary loaf of bread doesn't
weigh the legal weight then the
baker has to cut another loaf and
a sufficient make weight in fear of
the prosecution and fine that can
follow"
"Now there is a great difference
between English and American
flour. The American will stand
more water and produce twenty
five per cent greater bulk bread if
not more. The English flour is far
dearer than the American, and
therefore, even If the cost of labor
is less, matters are more than equal
ised."
"It's true that bakers, if you pay
% cents in advance, will give you
tickets that entitle you to six five
cents loaves equal to from 6 to 9
pounds of bread. In England the
same money would give you 229
pounds of bread for the same value
of flour at higher rate and pro-
ducing less bread"
at may be that the absence OF
cents in the city may be in some
measure the cause of this extortion
as it is a source of robbery to the
poor in other ways but there is no
reason why the ordinary five cents
loaf-one pound-cannot be sold
at the rate Of two for five cents
and then yield fair profit to the
vendor. This would give a stan
dard Of two pounds of bread for
five cents and let that price rise or
fall with theSprice of flour. This
is equitable and this is all would
ask on behalf of the workmen of
our city.

What promised to be a uniting
of general interest of the city cOun-
Gil yesterday afternoon developed
in the first part into a regular
lawyers court scene, on the ques-
tion of protests against the assess
ments of benefits and damages in
widening Houston street. There
were several attorneys present who
represented the DIRECTORS and were
allowed to present their claims
and address the council. The
alderman interrupted the legal
gentlemen in their arguments
very frequently to ask questions,
advance arguments which were
sometimes mere theories, and to
suggest remedies. After a long
legal "vie ct arms" the matter was
postponed until the first meeting
in May and the city attorney was
requested to study the question
and then present his official opin-
ion in writing. There were some
knolty legal points raised in the
argument.
After this the following petitions
were presented:
From G. w. Ogden, ct al, to erect
poles, ETC., for messenger and bur-
glar alarm system. Referred.
City attorney reported, having
examined deeds of property dOnat-
ed for public school purposes by
Mrs. Amanda J. Dignowity, Nicer
scneidt Bros, and others. Found
them correct and mayor ordered to
have deeds recorded.
II. p. Drought, for permit to put
bridge across San Pedro creek. Re-
ferred.
Mrs. Juana Flores, for remission
of assessment. Referred.
T. b. Applewhite, to exchange
deeds with city in order to i'm
prove BrazOs street. Referred.
Chas. H. Bond, to remit pound
fees. Referred.
Reichert Bros, were given per-
mission to erect a meat stall.
l.. Dreyfus, for correction of as
sessment, was referred, and petit
tions Of Cotton & Sons, Caroline
Berger, B. Nentwig, Mrs. c. Gress-
er, Mrs. M. F. Edgar, Walter Allen,
and w. l.. Neal, for small favors,
were referred to committee.

granted permit to erect new poles,

A YOUNG GIRLS FORTUNE.
AN INTERESTING SKETCH.

Nothing appeals so strongly to mothers
affection as her daughter just budding into
womanhOOd. Following is an instance: Our
daughter, Blanche, now Is years of age had
been terribly afflicted with nervousness, and
had lost the entire use of her right arm. She
was in such condition that we had to keep
her from school and abandon her music les
sons Yin fact, we feared st. Vitus dance, and
are positive but for an invaluable remedy she
would have had that terrible affictiOn. We
had employed ply 3icians but she received no
benefit from them. The first of last August she
weighed but IS pounds, and although she has
taken only three bottles of Nervine she now
weighs 1O6 pounds; her nervousness and symp-
toms of St. Vitus dance are entirely gone she
attends school regularly, and studies with com
fort and ease. She has recovered complete use
of her arm, her appetite is splendid, and no
money could procure for our daughter the health

not listen TO him, but as a last resort he sent rs

ACTOR AND ACTRESS OUT.
Nrx. Perkins Sues Her Husband for
Abandonment.

William r. Perkins, twenty-three
years old. OF 100 West Twenty-seventh
street, was arraigned before Justice
Feitner In the Essex Market Police
Court to-day. to answer charge of
abandonment, preferred by his wife,
Matte Perkins, of III East Twelfth
street.. Perkins Is an actor, and is play
ing this week in Blanks Concert Gar
zen, on Thiro avenue. The wife was
formerly an actress, and was known as
Matte Dix,
They. raet in December last. and after
was a widow at the time. They lived
together only a short time, and the wife
alleged that her husband compelled her
to be the hreadwiuner.
In February last she was thrown out

husbands home. She says she had her
baby with her.
Some weeks ago Mrs. Perkins caused
the arrest OF a troublesome boarder in

OF making her love him.
Perkins denied that he turned his
wife out of the house, and said that
she left on her own accord. The bus
band said that he as at present earning
SIS per week, but that he could not
give her a cent, as he owed large
board bill. He alleged that his wife

the Count to join her.
After that they sat there whenever
they were alone together.
So IL was that, seated on diyan OPP

saw kneeling before her him who was
not yet her lover but 10 whom she felt
already that she entirely belonged.
"Ah. my life, how I love you" he
was saying.
His arms were about her. Drawing
her closer to him, he sought her lips.
She was uneasy, and made as II she
would release herself, when, suddenly
conquered by the conyulsion which rent
her heart. she closed her eyes, and her
lips met his.
Yam Barsouck watched. Before those
two young creatures, wrapped In an
ecstasy of love, he smiled.
This love. what was IL? A pit into which
man led woman. and she ran to II blind

Yam understood this love. No one

Barsouck saw all. even the look OF
mad passion with which the Princess
thanked Alexis, unconsciously promiS-
ing to repay him a hundredfold for the
sacrifice she now imposed on him. Ks
A veil was suddenly torn away rom
the soul of the brute. His savage na-
ture was electrified by the ray OF un-,
Outstanding which penetrated his very
heart. II was a new idea-exquisite. ei-

Now he understood pure love. ~ y 81
As Alexis rose from his knees tbs
Prince entered. Certain of satiating jhint
hatred, gloating over the horror into
which his unexpected entrances had
thrown them, the Prince advanced delib-
erately towards the lovers, who stood
trembling before him. He went cAu-,
tiously, Ike a caterpillar creeping under
the petals Of a flower.
