THE COMING KING. democrat, Meth
er party can claim any credit from
this state of things The Tam
many men are not betting ON their
local ticket at all, to the great aston
ishment of the sporting fraternity.
The prophets are out in force, as usual,
and the predictions SO far make Nor
ton the next governor of the state,
Strong the next mayor of the city, and
give the state democracy an advan-
tage in the congressional delegation
This seems to show that Tammany's
star has paled altogether.
| Another unusual feature of the cleo
toral campaign is the small amount Of
money contributed to the contest by
the candidates themselves. Mr.. Strong
Mr.. Straus put up any cash. The other
candidates have not been assessed
either according to the undisputed
claims of their respective organizations.
This state of affairs is something un-I
precedented in the annals of New York
city. And, in spite of the absorbing in
terest of the struggle. this is not prov
ing an expensive fight. The political
banners are not the expensive affairs
they used to be. The campaign clubs
are devoting their time wholly to de-
bate instead Of to parading.
Indeed, the average man would not
imagine this TO be contest for Office at
all, but vast ethical controversy. In
stead of discussions over men, we are
having arguments about morality and
Justice, right and wrong, mans duty to
the state and topics of that nature.
The abnormally heavy registration is
another striking feature in campaign
which makes life In the metropolis.
wonderfully interesting just now.
What will be the verdict of the ball
lot box next week? That Is the great
question. From Cornelius Vanderbilt,
working shoulder to shoulder with all
other members Of the committee of
seventy, to the poorest lodging house
voter, that is the chief matter of i'm
portance.
No, New York has not seen an cleo
ton like this in MANY a year.

| over it has the same silvcry sheen. The
skirt is very full, and has spreading
paniers of the Louis XIV. order, caught
with large satin bows. The entire
front Of the bodice is fine point, laid
over the satin, made in two portions,
with the yoke overlapping the corselet
below, and satin bow also trims the
right shoulder. The short sleeve puffs
are of satin. trimmed with wide brace
lets of the point.
One other gown, prepared for the
same event, IS in glorious sulphurine
tints. But the rather bright satin is
yelled with the black net that falls
over. Spreading from point at the
waist. two bands Of very delicate
guipure run down the skirt, widening
out as they near the feet; and stripes
of the same continue round the back OF

as one OF her I'M MRS. GOULD DRESS.
plements is making dress very effective.
The Lew gowns she has brought over
are declared to represent a larger
money investment of that sort than has
ever been made. Mrs. Gould is GER
tainly coming to be recognized as 3
most powerful social leader, rather
TO the confusion of the knicker-.
booker element, which had heretofore
set its face against the family of the
late Jay. Mrs Gould appeared at an
elaborate social function every night
during recent week, and on each oc-
casion was differently attired, yet her
costumes represented a small fortune
in every case. She has set the fashion
in wide sleeves and in conspicuous hats.
They have always been something of a
fad with her. It is related of Mrs
Gould that she has vowed to overthrow
the special prestige of a well-known
land-owning family, and TO ell appear
ances she is proving at least formid-
able competitor. The lady, by the
way. has personal income of two hun
dred thousand dollars a year. being the
interest of various sums settled upon
her by her husband. This money is
absolutely hers, and at her death it
seems likely that she will leave an
enormous fortune.

the Tammsny leaders have been mu-
tual check upon each other, and he has
had to be an intelligent foreigner who
would escape the vigilance of the chal-
lengers- So far as this year is con-
cerned, New York has not Jared badly
in the matter of new citizenship.
Very often comment is created by
the absurd answers given to the SIM
plest questions regarding our institu-
tions that are.asked some of the foreign
ers. But deductions drawn from them
are apt TO be too hasty. 1t often hap
pens that an intelligent foreigner who
speaks but broken English is confused
when compelled to stand up before a
crowded court and respond off hand to
queries There are usually plenty Of
applicants awaiting their turn, and
each man is told to be quick and to
lose no time in answering. These in
experienced foreigners are then put
through rafting catechism, and in
many cases fail to grasp the purport of
the questions put to them. There has
latterly been a decided improvement
in every respect, and it is noted to the
credit of the foreign element in Gotham
that our customs and laws are getting
better understood. A most fortunate
effect has been produced by the police
Investigations Foreigners who have
all along supposed that the bluecoats
ruled New York have been powerfully
impressed by the spectacle of police
captains and sergeants humbled to the
dust.
Nevertheless, the naturalization
courts still present an modifying spec
tacle on many occasions. The appli-
cants are like a congress of every type
of humanity under the sun. No stu
dent of ethnology should fail to visit
these citizenship mills.
