CALLED BACK.

9 Police Justice Diver announces his In
tentiou OF. returning at'once from. Call
fornia to meet any charges that may be
made against him In connection with the
conduct of the election in his district
last November.
1t Is said that an attempt was made to
procure an Indictment against Judge
Diver by n former Grand Jury, but
that 1t failed for lack OF sufficient evil
dence.
The Corrupt Practices act makes 1t an
offense punishable by imprisonment for
not less than three months nor more
than a year for any person to give or
promise another any valuable thing In
order to induce him to vote or to refrain
from voting for any particular person or
persons at any election, or to procure the
election Of any candidate or the vote of
any voter.
Judge Diver offered prizes to the cap
tains of the election districts In his AS
sembly district that should poll the most
votes for the Democratic ticket at the
last election. 1t IL said that the Grand
Jury, before whom the Executive Com
mittee of the Bar Association carried tho
case, failed to see In this an offerse
within the meaning of the act, and that
the matter will be presented TO another
Grand Jury.
It is this rumor that calls Judge Diver
home. 1t would have been better, how
ever. II none of the district leaders had
left thu city at the time their followers
were in such peril, and II Mr.. Croker
himself had remained to see them out OF
their difficulties.

A wHIFF OF BRIDGErs BREATH.

= II Bridget King hadn't thrown her
arms around Policeman Lynch on the
Bowery' Saturday night she wouldn't
have got Into the lookup and been fined
IS In a police court yesterday morning
Her breath betrayed her. She had been
drinking, and the fragrance of the heart OF
the corn" as Mrs. Lease. the Kansas
word-bomb thrower. terms it, freighted
her every sigh and respiration. The
officer recognized the breath as disor-
derby, and put Bridget where 1t could do
40 harm.
When an excise violator in one Of the
courts yesterday pleaded that he had
sold nothing but cider. the Judge. with a
whitening glance and scathing sarcasm,
said to him: 'Do you thing that the
police force OF New York are so far
gone that they cannot tell the difference
between cider and whiskey?" 1t Is evi.
dent from Bridget Kings experience with
Officer Lynch that the force can tell
"coffin varnsh" by Its aroma and with.
out tasting 1t at all. BrldGet's mistake
was in subjecting her breath to the or
deal.
But people are not as particular abou
their breaths on the Bowery as they
are on Fifth avenue. On the latter thor
