were very welcome to the people this
morning after the incessant rain of the
last two or three days.
There has been full supply OF dis
comfort in the city since Monday at
least Navigation in the streets has
been difficult through thick forest of
umbrellas. Downtown there has been
flooding OF cellars. and in some In
stances of stores. There have been
lakes to cross In some streets and tor
rents to brave In others. The rain was
the cause OF an accident. fortunately
without Injury to passengers, on the
Brooklyn Bridge. The Third Avenue
cable road conduits filled with water
and caused annoying blockades. The
Broadway cable alone escaped and
worked without difficulty.
Uptown the storm played havoc with
the new streets and sewers. Holes were
washed out FIVE and six feet deep. Ice
wagons and milk wagons sank to the
hub in the roads. A cab. horse and
driver were just rescued from " cave
in" on the Southern Boulevard, wher
the entire street settled for u roo
around and traffic was suspended.
Well. 1t was very wet rain. and the
country round about will not be likely
to suffer from drought for some time

PROGRESS OF THE CoREAN WAR

The news OF a Japanese victory by sea
follows closely upon the intelligence OF
great land triumph, and confirms the
belief that the superior fighting qualities
of the Jap will make up for his want OF
numbers and carry him successfully
through the war.
The accounts that reach us are some
what conflicting. But as they come
mainly through Chinese sources, they
leave no doubt Of the destruction OF an
important part Of the Chinese navy. of
heavy losses. and of blow from which
It will be hard to recover. 1t IL not yet

for their victory.

THE POLITICAL KALEIDOSCOPE

Where Ia the Republican statesman who
remarked that his party was likely to
find itself In trouble through over-confi-
dence? And where are jealous heelers
who denounced him for his plainness Of
speech?
The Democratic party is in a fair way
of uniting, and New York, with a united
Democracy, is a Democratic State.
Every obstacle has been removed that
stood in the way of the nomination OF a
thoroughly acceptable candidate for Gov
ernor by the people, and not on the slate
OF "A boss.
There are many excellent men In the
Democratic party who would make fit,

scarcely trot out smile, and put 1t all
down to the inferiorty Of the company
The organization. | can now see, now
ever was quite as good as that at the
Standard. Ergo, the London success
must depend upon Mr.. Grossmith.
The idea OF THE New Boy" is in
genious enough-a boyish-looking hus-
band passing as his wifes son. because
II II Is known that she Is married she
will lose legacy. The Idea, as ! say, liz
ingenious, but in the play 1t Is rolled
out, spread out. stretched, pulled and
distorted in every direction. The author
is determined not to lose point He
labors for every little effect. and you
can see him manipulating the strings.
The result Ia tiresome. for the new boy
Is on the stage nearly all the time, and
you grow fatigued.
The complications are so broadly farci-
cal. so wildly improbable, and 80 gro
tesque, that they should be ratified off
unthinkingly and at lightning speed.
But the programme says that THE New
Boy" Is comedy, and 1t Is played slow

spontaneous 1t arises without any eff
fort-or any apparent effort-on the part
of the playwright. But in The New

What shall the boy do that Is absurd for
the man? What shall the man do that
Is ridiculous for the boy? You can
hear Mr.. Law asking himself those
questions. You can see the little list
OF eccentricities that he has drawn
up, and probably he checks this list as
the play proceeds. There are three acts

THE best medicine you can take for
costiveness," says an authority on anti
fat SIS seed foods. Cooked tomatoes
lead; cooking hardens the seeds trife,
which is irritating enough to stimulate
the intestines. An occasional tomato
meal has Its advantages. I have little
faith in the value of sauce dish of
this vegetable; a pint Of stewed tomatoes
or half dozen baked or broiled, is as
small a portion as l would suggest.
OF course, this quantity will make
other vegetables unnecessary. Another
efficient remedy is figs; and tart cram
berries come third"
