DRY Of heat, or the doctrine OF the mu-
tual Transformation Of physical forces
and how force and heat can he cslcu-
lated by one and the same unit of meas

heat is called caloric. A calorio is the
quantity of heat required to raise the
temperature OF g kilogrsmme (2.2046

On the other hand a kilogrameter is in
mechanics the amount OF force required
to raise in one second the weight OF one

and that public official reciprocated by
protecting the officer when he violated
the law, something to which he was
chemically addicted. There were daily
acts Of illegal violence committed by
policemen that were never punished.
The policeman with q pull was invul-
nerable Every attempt to bring him
to Justice was about as effectual us
throwing stones at an ironclad. Tho
policcman's billy was the crack club Of
New York. The. possibility that lie
might be adequately punished seemed
to him to be ridiculous. He was in
state of mind similar to that of Don

In. these days of reform, if an officer

A week later he stood outside the

He stood wondering what he should
do, when his musical instincts, which
had been crushed and had lain dormant
for SO long, arose within him. He hur-
ried along the street, entered shop,
and purchased tin whistle with his
one remaining copper.
An hour later, and he walked slowly
along the middle of the road, his
threadbare coat buttoned up around
his neck, an old battered hat pressed
tightly down over the struggling gray
hair that blew in the cold wind, and
his dry lips pressed against the whistle.

Israel had made their escape from the

the habit of drinking on the sly.
Ostensibly the saloons have always
been closed on Sunday, but the side
door opened and shut with as much
regularity MS the jaw OF woman with
grievance. The street cars were
crowded with men whose brcaths were
strong enough to run n gas engine.
Tho police made no serious effort to
close the saloons. Negligent police
men and Sunday drunkenness arc
simply cause and effect. AS things
are now, the man who succeeds in
finding saloon, into which he can
sneak on Sunday, is apt to meet with
an accident that usually occurs to
railroad men. He is liable to be caught
UCUWCeA Ullc Oulll)STS.
Under the present administration all
this has been changed. Mr.. Roosevelt,
the president of the board of police
commissioners claims that 1t is his sa-
cred duty to enforce the laws, and the
police captain in whose precinct they
are violated is held to a strict RESPONSE
bility; consequently the saloons arc
closed, with the result that there is m
exodus for tho moister climates of
Brooklyn and New Jersey every Sum
day. that leaves New York as deserted
us the traditional banquet hall or the
store of the man who does not advcr-
tisc. Not only that, but the saloons
are closcdat midnight all over the city.
This arrangement hits the, saloon
proprietor very hard, for more money
passed over the bar between midnight
of Saturday and Monday morning than
during all the rest of the week, hence
the saloon man suffers in ''lnind, body
and estate" Hundreds, and possibly
thousands, OF New York saloonkecpers
may be obliged to give up business en-
tirely, as under the new regime. the
expenses, which are very heavy, are in
excess of the income.
1t looks very much us II the saloon
had lost most Of its power in politics.
OF course, it will always have certain
influence in elections, but, practically,

There was a time, not SO very long ago,
when owning q saloon was the great
essential qualification of IN alderman.

propriate gesture: "Dc Office Of alder
man in dis ward belongs ter dis saloon
-sec?" And the worst ofit,was he was
stating a self-evident fact.
Yes; the excise laws are enforced; the
heretofore omnipotent policeman has
been made to realize that he is no
longer the boss Of the people, but their
servant; and the streets, for the first
time in the history of New York, are
kept clean. and yet the people are not
happy, even If they have got what they
thought they wanted, when they over
threw Tammany Mt the ballot box on
the 9th of last November.
In the first place, the taxes have
been largely increased. 1t costs more
to clean the streets than it did
before, by many hundreds OF thou
sands of dollars, but they are cleaned.
The enforcement of the various
ordinances creates great deal Of
discomfort, nnd, taking it all in all, u
do not believe, if a test vote were taken
now, that the present administration
would be sustained. However, public
sentiment may change very materially
before the time for the next election

The next day Mr.. Wilson received
visit from Maggie. She came in tears
to beg his consent. His heart was
touched at the sight of woman in
sorrow, and, rcviling himself for cold
blooded monster, he told her, in an
outburst of generosity, to go and
marry Luigi as many times as she
liked.
After twelvemonth spent In Italy
Luigi became perfect. His first ap-
pearance in public was made in Ger

him that his dream was at last rea-
LIKED.
Jabez Wilson walked out of his So
licitor's Office penniless The bank of
which he was principal shareholder
had failed, and this, in conjunction
with few minor disasters, had robbed
him of every penny he had possessed.
Hc had never in his life done stroke
of work, and was not even capable of
clerical position.
The apartments he had occupied were
given up; the club was never again to
see him or hear what had become of
him; the fine old wines in his cellar
fetched sufficient to pay his long-stand-
ing rent, with surplus to keep HIM
in food and lodgings for few weeks

not bring himself to write to him and

reading the paper, short paragraph
