Three hundred extra tents from the

there were complaints OF overcrowding.

OF camp and gave their quarters to the
Michigan men.
Estimates of the number In camp are
about ten thousand, as each tent ac-
commodities five men. There are also
many UNATTACHED knights in town.
Many divisions arrived during the day
and there was a jolly time In camp,
notwithstanding damp, uncomfortab bic

spectators, and others paid formal visits
to the me!aoers Of Congress, notably
the Cleveland brigade. which was re-.

Up to date the Sick Babies Fund has
received s2O,726 from the people. On Sat
urday 1891 70 was contributed.
The enthusiasm of the charitable sup
porters of this Fund has not subsidized
and 1t IL possible that 5000 will be
added before the Fund closes.
The free doctors maintained by this
charity will continue their visits to the
tenements for several weeks yet They
knock at every door and inquire after
the health of the children. If any child
is sick or hungry, or needs clothing, the
doctor supplies the want. Even adults
found sick or in distress are cared for.
The Fund has ministered to thousands
during the Summer. 1t has saved al
most as many lives as 1t has received
dollars. The free doctors are the body
guard of the poor. Thousands of moth
ers prayers bless them and the people
who give the money to sustain this
beautiful charity.

with a serious accident in his last at

A GAME OF BLUFF.

Ex-spealser Reed opened the cam
paign in Maine last Saturday, and his
speech was q model specimen OF bluff.
He arraigned the Democrats for one
fault of which he declared no person
could possibly acquit them, however
much he might defend or approve all
their acts. That fault was procrastina-
tion
The repeal Of the silver-purchasing
clause Of the Sherman Act, he admitted.
might have been Of some service to the
country 'if 1t had been done promptly
and at once" But the delay to which
the measure was subjected destroyed
any good effect It might otherwise have
had. =;
( Then came the Tarif bill. and that
also; instead Of bringing relief to the
country by some sort of assurance that
there was to be settlement Of some
kind on, which the business interests
might rely. was subject to shameful
and protracted struggle.
( Considering the prominent part the
Republican Senator's and Mr.. Reed him
self by his filibustering took In delaying
both these measures, the ex-Speakers
arraigpment of the Democrats is at
least very funny.

A Delightful Incident.
To the Editor;

I was riding in the Third a0enue a. this
morning when two young ladies' evidently
about eighteen years, entered at One Hundred
and Sixth street They sat down In two vacant
seats with the air OF we'll bred girls. At Eighty
ninth street an old woman, evidently about
eighty or eighty-two years, entered, and as there
were no vacant seats to be had she stood. as 1t
happened before these young ladies. And would
you believe It, not a man in that part of the
car offered the old woman a seat She stood
but while. when the fairer Of these two ladies'
arose and offered her seat with we'll bred
courtesy. She thanked the girl, and after a
while asked her where Wall street WAS She an
swered with a smile. She would be pleased to
show her. as the was going to pass through
that street At Hanover Square she assisted the
old woman to slight. also to descend the stairs
My curiosity WAS aroused to such an extent
that followed them. They stopped at the Sea-
mems Bank, and there In the open street the
old woman took the young lady Ia complete

her land. After the young lady left her she
walked up Wall street. with face that showed
she was happy for what she had dono.

BURNS SEEKS HIS LIBERTY.
Claims the Governor Could Not
Make His Pardon Conditional.
(By Associated Press. J

ALBANY. N. Y, Aug. ga case in
volving queer questions of constitutional
law has Just been filed with the Court
of Appeals The facts show that James
Burns was convicted on May 20. 1883,
OF robbery in the first degree and SEN
fenced to Auburn Prison for thirteen
years. In February. 1899, the sentence
was committed by Gov. Flower. This
Communication contained conditions that
II Burns was convicted of a felony with
in the next ten years. or drank intoxi-
eating liquors within five years, he
should serve out the remaining ten years
of his sentence, In June, 1898, he was
arrested In Rochester for robbery and
found to be intoxicated. He was then
sent back to prison.
The constitutional question to be de-
cided by the Court of Appeals is whether
the Governor has any right to impose
such an obligation when committing
sentence. and whether or not the
drinking of intoxicants can be denied
any citizen.

WHERE IS SOLOMON
He IL Out on Hail and His Accounts
Are Doubtful.

Are Doubtful.
The latest phase of the internal
troubles of the Sons of Benjamin in this
city is the bail-jumping and other al
legged Irregularities Of Emil Solomon,
an officer and trustee Of Wlozlawker
Lodge No. of the Order.
A fight has long progressed. with too
many legal aspects to repeat, between
that lodge and the central organization
of the Society, of which Registrar
Ferdinand Levy Is Grand Master.
Recently Lodge No. withdrew Its
account from the savings banks and, 1t
is said, divided the funds among the
lodge trustees. Mr.. Solomon. who lives
on the east side and Is an agitator and
a friend of Barondess. was one OF these
trustees. They were arrested and
bailed out.
Max Schwartz, the proprietor Of Lib
erty Hall, in Houston street. went on
Solomon's bond. Solomon cannot now
be found, and Mr.. Schwartz is begging
Register Levy and many others to stop
the case, as the bond Is for 1000.
Mr.. Levy Is entirely out of sympathy
with Solomon, Schwartz and the others
who caused the troubles of No. q. Mr.,
Levy says that he has also heard that
some of the No. members were goins
to nut an expert accountant at work
upon their books. Mr.. Solomon was
Financial Secretary.
1t has been said that Solomon is in
Chicago. Again it is heard that he is

Church has too bad a past record education
to attempt to taunt ee-thinkers by claiming to
