TWO IMPORTANT BROOEIJV RILTS

ernor Morton. The first consolidaics the gov

alters the method Of elccting Aldermen
The bill relating to the election Of Aldermen
had a unique experience in its course through
the legislature and on that account alone would
be entitled to special mention. II was disap-
proved by Mayor Schieren when submitted 10
him. but, having been wrongly indorscl by a
legislative clerk. was inadvertently signed by
the Governor. This action ii was held vifiaicd

DEPARTMENT Early yesterday morning Pres-

ON his own account. Several things which he
discovered astonished him; and he was not the
only as,onished man connected with the Depart
ment. He found one roundsman and five patrol
mon uegccting their duty, and when he accosted
them and politely asked why they were not at
tending TO business they were at first inclined
~ treat him with ridicule or worse. But their
mood quickly changed when the inquisitive
stranger made himself known. The delnquents
were later summoned TO Police Headquarters
and roundly scolded. The effect OF Mr.. Roose-
vcl,'s tour In the Twenty-irst Precinct will be
wholesome and lasting There can be no telling
when or where he will take notion TO go abroad
again at night.
