Senator Hill. through his mouthpiece Mr.. Perry
Belmont declared yesterday for a wildcat" bank
currency on the ground that Newly York can be
safely intrusted with State banks of our own de-
"vising" The idea of State banks devised by the
men who stole whole State government only
three years ago ought to appeal powerfully to the
OF Tammany Hall but will hardly warm
the cookies Of the business communitys heart.
New-York tribune., 1895-09-25

The retirement Of the members Of the Park
Commission Is regrettable. So far as has been
learned, the inability Of President King on ac-
count Of his recent affctOn and resulting Ill
health, TO continue the performance OF his duties
Is the sole reason for the designations which
have been sent TO Mayor Strong. The duty Of
selecting four new Commissioners will now de.
volve upon the Mayor. From them a somewhat
more vigorous administration Of the Park De-
partment should be expected. The retiring
Commissioners have shown an excess OF willing
ness 10 be satisfied with things as they found
them. which may well be sedulously avoided by
their successors.

Tho sea was full of wreckage just off shore, and this was tossed about and sucked under by the surf so that 1t was n wonder that the buoy was not torn loose or its occupant pounded to death on the journey. Tho man begged tho life savers not to tighten the hawser, for 1t was stretched across the edgo of a rail and would be chafed asunder should tho strain ho tautenod.

 Tho buoy was dragged through ti.e surf on throo more trips, each of them successful, and the further rescues were made by holp of lantern signals from tho wreck. Theso woro made by tho mate, who superintended tho placing of the sailors in the buoy. On some trips two men were hauled ashore,
 but all of them reached thero in fright full condition after their journey under tho freezing waters.

Whom tho buoy rraChod shnro, its sinSlo occupant told tho life savers what had hap pcncd, and Keeper smith, with two surf mon, at once plunged into the breakers. One of them caught tho drowning lad, but tho hold was SD loosc, on account of his frozen mittcns, that the surging hrcakors toro it loose, and the unfortunate was car ricd beyond reach.

The mate was hanging to it by ono foot and narrowly missed the fate of tho lost cabin boy When tho buoy stopped far out ir the surf, he supposed that tho grarin:S had hrComr foulrd beyond remedy, and to save himself from Smuthrring had climbed outside he buoy, intent upon talk ing chances in the surf Fortunately tho man on >hyrr hauled away in timo tn catch his foot in thN ropes, and he was held fast until drawn ashore.

CouranF SO much touched and interested me, Sho was rightly named Pearl, for today she shines among the brightest jewels of the Mas tors crown, Like released bird her spirit has taken its flight homeward in the early dawn of her sweet young life. Yours is Q sa. cred grief, blessed sorrow, with no bitter dregs of anguish and regret, but heavenly compensations, blessed hopes and happy mem' orios sanctify your sorrow.
 The event recalls to my mind the death of a beautiful young girl friend of mine and the only child of her parents in Naples, many years ago, and Whittier's beautiful verses oh her death, which seem to mo equally applioa. ble to your own lovely child:
 Another hand is bcckoning us,
 Another call Is given,
 And glows onco moro with anguI steps
 Tho path that reaches heaven.
 The light of her young lifo went down
 As sinks behind tho hill
 The glory of a setting star
 Clear, suddenly and still.
 Still let her mild rebuling stand
 Between us and the wrong,
 And hor dear memory serve to mako
 Our faith in good ness strong.
 Sincorcly yours, II. B, STowH.

Shc inheritS her share of tho family property and holds it as her own after marriage, her husband having no control over it nor any legal control over her. n condition not found incompatible with domestic harmony In fact, it rath- CT promotes it, taking most of the con ccit out of the Burmese man, who is a bet ter husband without it, as tho occidental one might be if it could in any way bo bravcd out of him. She is clever shop keeper and trader, but that does not prevent her from being a good house keeper and bringing mp her family ill the best Burmese manner, She dresses as she likes, according to her occupa- tion. and there are no bishops there to criticisc her style. and she shares with men ill All social and most industrial duties.
 There has never, so far as known, been any agitation there on behalf of woman s rights, for she has always had them all, nor much complaint of her wrongs. as they seem to have no exist enco ill that tranquil oriental paradise, They are now beginning to ride to and from their hazaars on bicycles, and in no long timo all female Burma bids fair to be mounted on caStnrS, without Il word of popular or domestic dissent.
