VIOiINS AT AUCTION.
Under the Hammer Fancy Prices for In
struments Are Rarely Given.

have more than once remarked that
the extravagant prices SO frequently
mentioned in print as the value of Old
italian violins are never reached under
the purifying fire of the auctiOn-room.
We hear of this or that fiddle being
worth it's e. 900 or l., 900, and OF another
violin being bought (for presentation
for the ridiculously low sum of Il 800
But it is, believe, the truth, and, if so
it is remarkable fact that. ever under
the most favorable circumstances no
violin has ever at auction realized any
thing like 1.090 Last week there was
an auction at Putticls &, Simpsons @.
undoubtedly genuine Instruments from
the collections of Davis cooper, Stanis-
treet, Finzi, and others. The highcs'
price reached was for Strad of 172S
which went for f900-a serious drop on
the $4,000 or $4,000 of the newspaper
paragraphist. A fine Amati went fof
f145, an f. Ruggeri of 1898 for $50 an
A. and II. Amati of 1918 for f75. and So
forth. Some excellent Old Italian vic
Inns were sold for under $50. and this /
believe, was quite up to their real value
The moral, suppose is that if ] want
to buy violin L shall be wise and buy
1t at auction. On the other hand. if
want to sell one the highest price | car
obtain is-by newspaper paragraph

SOME BROOKLYN LEGISLA TON

An emipently reasonable bill has beer intro
duced in the Legislature by Assemblyman
Brush. of Brooklyn BY laws enacted last year
three Of the four towns in Kings County have
become wards Of the city, and on January l..
1896. the remaining town, Flatands. will be
annexed. 1t Is obvious that after this date the
necessity for the existing dual form OF govern
ment will cease. There are now Board OF
Aldermen and Board Of Supervisors; Mayor
and Supervisorat-Large; County Treasurer
and a City Treasurer: a County Auditor and
City Auditor Mr. Brushs bill provides that
the duties now performed by the county officials
named shall devolve upon the corresponding ofii-
Gals of the city when the city and county be-
come one and the same, stlpulatng. however
that the Board Of Aldermen shall act as Board
OF Supervisors In such mattershs the Consttu-
ton requires. This is what Is already done by
the Aldermen In this city. 1T Is fnrther pro
yided that the Department of Charities and Cor
rection shall be continued as city department,
future Commissioners being appointed for Ike
terms with the heads Of other departments OF
the city government
The general features Of this bill are excellent
and should be enacted into law. 1t would be
the height OF folly TO continue two sets OF offi-
Gals to perform identical duties. Yet there are
evidences Of opposition to the measure on the
part Of certain politicians who cannot bear TO
entertain the idea Of abolshing a single office
which. they themselves or their friends may ut
some time fill. 1t is precisely the same spirit
which has prevented the Legislature thus far
from abolishing the useless offices created dur
ing Democratic administrations. Only one Of
the State sInecures, the office OF State Agent
for Discharged Convicts, has as yet been wiped
out. As for the bill consolidating the city and
county government in Brooklyn, it Is 80 plainly
in the interest Of our neighbOrs beyond the
Bridge that we cannot believe 1t possible that
the opposition will be effective.

Annexation is q question which concerns Cuba
more closely than the United States. The
American Union has existed for century ana.
except under Democratic rule, has been fairly
prosperous without having any West Indian
possessions. The extension OF its dominion IN
that quarter Is not essential 20 lis welfare.
With its continental domain it has ample terri
tories and resources without the addition cf 4
tropical archipelago for the annexation Of TIE
Spanish West Indies would naturally be fol-
lowed by the acquisition Of other islands. The
