Musset possessed the gift of second

haunted by presentiments, not one of
which failed in fulfillment. One even

A BRILLIANT STREET AT NIGHT.

New York Letter
The use of electric lights in the streets
has become so extensive that it is impos-
sible for n photographer TO take clear
view of streets and houses by night. Last
Sunday night photographer took twelve
views in the city, including Herald square,
Madisn square. and the general postoftice.
In some of the photographs the carbon in
an electric light globe can be seen, and
the houses are as distinct as they would
be if taken by day. Broadway was never
brighter than it is at present and some
of the electric signs are beautiful TO look
upon. Probably one of the prettiest light
effects to be seen here are to be secured
while swinging around the cable curve at
Union square Coming down town in the
early evening all one has to do is to turn
the gaze upon East Fourteenth street.
There huge streaks and arches Of bright
lights greet the eye, the distance only
adding 10 the beauty of the brilliant scene.
The sight is worth long walk or a
nickel any fine evening.

New York Times.
Every afternoon, whether 1t rains or
shines man, tall and slender. and walk
ing with the elastic step due TO good
health. may be seen patroling Broadway
between Thirty-third and Forty-second
streets. He carries himself erect in spite
of his age, which is more than SO. He
takes long, swinging strides which many
a younger man might envy. It is Edward
Payson Weston, the famous old-time
walker. who fifteen years ago could draw
as large crowd as Patti. He is still
hale and hearty, and the tremendous
strains upon his vitality in the past do
not seem to have hurt him to any extent.
One reason he assigns for this is that he
is a teetotaler.

ocratic love feast will prevail. jan
nary the eighth is a day sacred to the
memory of Andrew Jackson and is the
anniversary of the memorable battle
of New Orleans. The day OF late years
has come to be more generally celebrat-
ed than heretofore, and now Jackson
Day banquets and demonstrations by
Democrats are of common occurrence.
"Old Hickory" is popular figure in the
history of the country, and MS strong
character, indicative OF the stlrrlng
times and scenes in which he lived and
moved is as worthy of commemora-
ton as are his excellent qualities as
soldier, patriot and statesman.
The final battle Of New Orleans was
fought on the morning of January Sth,
1915, but was led Up 70 by a series OF
engagements with the British in the
vicinity of the city. The battle was
noteworthy in more than one respect.
1t was the final engagement in the war
of 1912, and was the last great fight in
which the United States was called up
on to cross swords with the mother
country.

rest and detention of both boys until I
can get an officer to them; or, $500
for either Both are large; one has red

BARRIERS MEET.

The BARRIERS union held a meeting
yesterday to decide whether they would
raise their schedule prices. but they
reached no agreement on the question.
The matter will very likely not reach
a definite settlement, at least for some
months to come. as this is considered
a very unfayorable time to make any
raise in prices. If the majority of the
BARRIERS are in favor Of adopting the
twenty-five cent rate for hair cutting
and other proportionate charges, they
will wait until business and times are
better.
