LABOR DAY REFLECTIONS,

on the day devoted to the honor or

a corrupt and selfish city government
In especial is injurious to honest labor.
The political boss bestows his favors not
on the real workingman but on the
heller. whose services he can rely upon
at the hallot-box. All the public money
he squanders on such tools ne takes out
OF the pockets of honest labor. When ne
robs the city to enrich himself and his
parasites he prevents capital from In

In private enterprises. and so makes
work scarce.

PoRRIDGE AND THE FOoTLIGHTs.

One OF our native actresses. whose
histrionism when 1t gets "a move on"
sends a thrill through the whole Sixth
Ward. has been to Shakespeare's ex-
home, at Stratford-on-Avon, during the
Summer, and now feels that there Is
nothing in the whole range OF the drama
from realistic sawmill to a jujube paste
balcony scene that she cannot tackle
with a resultant throb or two OF tri-
umph.
She said she found an old lady, a
descendant of Ann Hathaway, on the
Stratford premises eating porrdge out
OF wooden platter and persuaded the
venerable relique to give her a portion
OF the porridge. That. OF course, settles
1t. Having shared a platter of porridge
with a descendant of Shakespeares Ann,
at what was once Shakespeare's own
home, nothing on earth can prevent her
from being, or at any rate becoming,
a great actress.
If Stratford porridge does this Thes-
plan any good there Is every reason why
other actors and actresses should send
over for some of it, Perhaps after all
II Is Ann Hathaway's oatmeal mush

A Novel Entertainm ent.

Among the novelties in entertain
ments Is the Dutch supper" To make
such a supper a success all the guests
must be congenial in respectfully b.
hemian fashion, and all the viands. bev-
erages and appointments must be con-
sistently expressive Of the Vaterland.
At a recent affair of this kind the re-
freshments served were rye bread and
Swiss chees sandwiches, cabbage salad
served from a salad dish deftly carved
in the heart of a delicate, pale green
cabbage. w!enerwursts and beer. The
plate cards were small German peasant
pictures inscribed with the guests
names in German, and among the nov
elites in the table decoration were two
large wooden sabots. gilded and filled
with ponsetta and maidenhair fern.
The tankards were imported delft. with
German feast notices wreathing their
corpulent bodies. Pretzels md picked

I'm Sorry.

To the Editor:
I'm sorry for the wives who daily trod this
earth
without a thought of motherhood to brighten
up the hearth.
Who will not know the pleasures that children
give to live.
No matter what the trials no matter what the
strife.
I'm sorry for the husbands who journey home
each night
And cannot feel within them the bliss, the glad
delight
OF having round their necks entwined the club
by little arm.
And feel the wholesome pressure Of rosy lips SC
warm.
Then I'm sorry for the mothers who md chill
dren such Q care.
And to that class OF women fain would say be-
ware:
The time may come. and very soon when the
care would be Joy
II you could only bring back that precious angel

Fireman Fitzgerald Brnvely Res
cues His Neighbor Tenants.
A fire that created small-sized panic
and 2G2 West One Hundred and Twenty
fifth street started at $3.50 this morning.
The building Is owned by Fowler
Bros, fancy grocers. who occupy the
ground floor. Mrs. Margaret Cox. who
keeps a clearinghouse. occupies the sec
ond floor of No. 262. and the second.
third and fourth floors of No. 26O.
The fire started in the rear of the sec
covered by James Carln and John Mar
tin, who were sleeping in the middle
rom.
They went through the houses, banging on
ing occupants to get UP and save them
selves. 1t required little. time to do
this, but the smoke. and flames had
already so filled the lower part Of the
building that none of the bewlldered
tenants dared attempt their escape by
running down the stairs. They were all
driven back to the top floors by the
increasing smoke and flames.
Hook and Ladder Company No. Il
soon responded. and Michael Fitzgerald,
a member Of the company who lived on
before 1t was fully extended. The lad
Ger was run up to the windows Of the
fourth floor.
Charles Reinecke, IN his eagerness to
escape. jumped upon the ladder before
1t was stable, and but for the heroic
efforts OF Fitzgerald. who caught him,
would have fallen headlong to the street
