BROTHERS
The Leading ClOthierS
HACKDRIVERS FIGHT.
Al. Cook Attacks William Earl and
Is Beaten Up.


Last night, about $3.50 o'clock,
the sound of a police whistle at
tracted large crowd to the Mem
ger hotel. 1t was a bloody fight
between AL. Cook and William
Earl, two hackdrivers. The fight
originated about "load," for
which Earl had an order. From by
ISLANDERS it is learned that Cook
struck Earl when the latter was
not looking. When Earl turned
around, Cook caught Earl's finger
in his mouth and nearly chewed it
off. Then Earl struck Cook under
the chin, got his finger out and
made a chOpping block of Cook,
when the latter yelled murder
he's killing mew Both were very
bloody. They were placed under
arrest for fighting and gave bond.
Their cases were continued by Re-
corder Shields this morning, owing
to Cooks non-appearance, who is
said to be laid up.

ing same over to the city collector,
said he had no full report to make,
as he could not secure enough
proof; that Mr.. Brand had
refused to bring in his books,
and had been impudent in
his answers to the committee. He
had proven that Brand had COL
lected moneys in January and had
put the same in bank in his own
name and had afterward used the
money for his private wants, and
that he had not lived up to the
terms OF the contract to imme-
diately turn over collections to the
city collector, but the remainder
of the committee had not signed the
report and he suggested that IL @
coun' il 60 into committee OF t.
whole at some time and investigate
this matter.
During the alderman's report he
was called to order by Aid. Beck
mann, that there was nothing be-
fore the house, and Mr.. Beck
mann used the word "harangue"
in reference to Mackey's speech.
This nettled the old gentleman
and he replied holly, interrupting
Beckmann in his motion to give
, the committee more time to report.
The matter finally rested with this
motion.
The city attorney reported that
the $4,000 damage suit of Casper
Ringelstein against the city was
set for May 6 for trial. He was dis
barred and asked the Council to Sc
cure another lawyer for the de-
Tense Of the city. His assistant,
Capt. Huston,was suggested. That
official, it was said, was in i'll
health, and might not be able to do
so. 1t was then agreed that If he
was not able to attend to it, a con-
tinuance could be secured in the
suit.
Fred Hensel was elected unanim-
ously as park commissioner.
Alderman Holt presented an Or
dinance that the city shall make
no purchase or contract over $40
without public notice first being
given, with calls for bids. 1t was
referred to the city attorney. Also
that all officials of the city holding
any property Of the city be requir-
ed to make an inventory of same
and report to the council on same.
Referred to the city attorney.
Also that the auditor keep books
in his office in which to record all
bids and contracts, for reference.
Referred to city attorney.
McAllister presented motion
that committee be appointed to
straighten up the Mccall deed and
give him correct deed. The for.

THE ABSENTEE vICEROY.

The Irish People Have just Cause For
Complaint Against Lord Houshton.
The latest grievance discovered by
the Parnellites is we'll founded and is
calculated to win them general popular
sympathy in Ireland. 1t is that the lord
lieutenant is an absentee. It is fact
that Lord Houghton spends as little
time as possible in the country from
which he draws his salary Of 920, 900
a year. The Irish people could very we'll
do without his lordship, but they natu-
rally grieve as business men as we'll as
patri OTIS to see that good money is spent
out Of the country, especially as they
have provided it out of funds none too
ample at the best times.
Lord Houghton is enormously wealthy,
having inherited the bulk Of the big
fortune of his uncle, the late Lord
Crewe, in addition to his own previous
ly large income. He has no personal
need of the viceroy's salary, and, it ru-
NOR can be relied upon, has no taste for
the office. tits not surprising, therefore,
to learn that he is contemplating retir-
ing. It is believed that the proposed
successor of Lord Houghton was young
Lord Drumlanrig, who committed sui
eide under such sad circumstances few
weeks ago. The government now has
some difficulty in finding Liberal peer
qualified and willing to accept the Irish
viceroyalty, dignifed sinecure though
it be.-New York Sun s London Letter

THE WOMAN WITH A PAST,
Her Frequent Appearance In tho Drama
Is Causing Discussion.

IL Causing Discussion.
Several high class English weekly re-
views have joined the London Times in
exhaustive discussion of the modern So
oiety drama, or what Labouchere de-
soribes as realistic Magdalen plays. -
Beerbohm Trees latest success, "John-
a-dreams, is the usual text employed,
but the subject has been made widely
comprehensive. Mr.. Tree was at first
somewhat resentful in resisting the at
lacks upon his piece. In his latest let
ter, however, he admits, for the sake of
tho argument, that the woman with a
past has been too frequently upon the
stage of late, but he affirms: Certain
it is, however, that the best and strong
est dramatic work which this decade
has produced has been that whose sub
50 severely reprobated. The inference,
I make bold to say, is obvious. 1t is
the epoch, not the actor or the author,
that is arraigned. The taste Of the pub
lio is undoubtedly for discussion of such
problems, as is evidenced not only ON
the stage, but In the lecture hail. in
magazine articles and in novels The
desirability Of such q discussion is a
matter Of opinion. To 60 to the root Of

The Times, in summing up the sub
ject, takes the sido of the objectors, say
ing: .....
"We have had a great deal too much
Of the woman with past, and too
many Of her. If she had been confined
to one play, she would still have had an
amount of elucidation altogether out Of
proportion to her Importance But she
is forced upon our attention with such
persistent assiduity that people who do
not want to hear about her find their
opportunities Of theater going seriously
curtailed. She has been elevated into
cult. The leading doctrine of tho new
woman school, which contains a certain
number Of effeminate males, is that the
one thing worth living and working for
is free discussion Of unsavory subjects
by men and women. When manager
desires to have little variety in the
way Of play which does not turn upon
adultery, he has to engage in prolong-

Delightful glimpses Of Oliver Wen,
dell Holmes appear in his letters pub
lished in The Century. In one of them
he speaks Of the "still, sad odor of hu-
manity' that pervades hotels and houses
where hundreds Of people have tarried
and slept tsuccessively. He affirmed that
the only genuine, decent and clean arti-
cleeyer to be- obtained in a tavern, as be
called our hotels, was boiled egg. So
sickeneG was he with that persistent
"still, sad odor of humanity" that he
declared, "Every six months tavern
should burn to the ground, with all it's

start afresh from its ashes. Again he
wrote of the best chambe bed into
which guests are always thrust at a

DocToRED MINERAL WATERS.
Results of an Investigation Recently Maao
by the Academic do Medicine.

Results of an Investigation Recently Made
by the Academic do Medicine.
The Academic de Medicine Of Paris.
as the result Of close investigation OF
the trade in the so called natural
mineral waters Of France, has arrived
at the following conclusions, which are
put in the form of recommendations to
tho legislative bodies:
First. That the sale Of natural wa
ters impregnated with supplementary
gases should not be allowed.
Second. Every application for per-
init to carry on the business Of tho sale
of natural mineral waters should be ac-
companied by certificates made before
the proper authorities that the waters
handled or to be handled by the appli-
can't have not been SO preparod-i. 9. j,
by supplementary carbonifcation-
by a further certificate on the part Of
the owner of the spring or Of the source
Of the water that he has not had re-
course to supplementary Justification.
Third. reservoirs used for miner
al water should bo made alright and
should be emptied at least once in every
"a hours. They should be SO construct
ed that the water Of the spring flows di-
rectly into them, and, further, all bottles
and containers should be thoroughly
sterilized, and all impurities of every
description should be removed before
they are offered for sale.
Fourth. These regulations should be
at once imposed, and all proprietors Of
springs Of mineral waters should be
forced to put them in practice within
three months from date :..
In France tho recommendations Of
the academic carry almost the weight
Of an order, and there is but little doubt
but that the above regulations will SON
be in force, so far as commercial waters
for home consumption are concerned. If
they are made to apply to all waters,
those for export as we'll as those for DO
mestic use, there will be fearful fall
ing OFF in exports, as it is we'll known
that every single bottle Of foreign 80
called natural carbonated waters
not merely those Of France, but those Of
Germany, Austria and other countries
that goes abroad goes charged with
supplementary gas. Not merely II q,
but nearly every one Of them is doctor
ed otherwise to an extent that shr I'd
remove them entirely from the category
OF natural waters.
Some of the great mineral water com
panies annually export to America
alone millions of bottles Of water in ex
cess of the output Of their springs. By
strange ruling Of our customs offici- Is

HOLLAND MAD.

The Enterprising and Honest Dutch Have
Captured Gotham.
The town has suddenly gone Holland
1aad, not as that thrifty little kingdom
did7when it lost its heart over tulips
and threatened to bring the finances of
the country to ruin, but wisely, dis
creetly mad as New Workers become.
The china shops are filled with Delft,
the silversmith' 8 cases with Dutch sill
yer and the very milliners display lit
tie Dutch bonnets, fashioned like the
quaint peaked caps worn by the good
danes of old Amsterdam. Even Dutch
furniture has become craze, and fash
ionable shoppers are passing by the gor-
geous empire styles, decorated with the
laurel leaf, to buy the Dutch sofas and
cabinets, curiously inlaid with rare
woods and wrought with picturesque
carving.
In far better taste is this Dutch fur
niture, fashioned, as it is by hand to
meet the domestic needs Of a sincere.
honest folk, than tho empire furniture,
with it's bizarre ornamentations of gild-
ed metal and it's mock classic patterns
designed to suit newly created aris-
tocracy. If we could but bring back the
simple domestic spirit Of the Dutch with
our Dutch fashions, it would settle many
a social problem, but Dutch fashions as
they now appear are as costly as the
gilded fashions of Louis XIV or the en-
pire. 1t has long been an established
fact that one must pay most extrava-
gantly for refined simplicity, SO that
Delft is often almost as costly as Dros-
den. There are pretty fruit baskets in
Delft, "drug vases" low bedtime can
dlesticks, shoes and the. most altogether
delightful tiles imaginable, duplicating
in pattern old tiles, some of which still
exist in manor houses in old New York
and near Albany. It is now possible to
get almost all the new shapes in this
modern Delft, as it is wise European
custom to save all designs used in the
china factory. New York Tribune.
