Oscar Luway, a Finlander, is a vic

Officer Joseph Lawson after an excit-

in Central park about 5 o'clock Tee

Isaac Flagg's door yard on Prospect
street. Here he took off his shoes, his
coat and vest. He was about to re-
move other garments when he was in

women who made way for him with
screams of fright.
At Water street he disappeared ard

Smiths boarding house on Greene
street, using a window as a means of
entrance. The women boarders fed
but the male boarders gave chase. The
fellow ran to the attic. The pursuit

Mrs. Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Ward
has excited the community with the
story of her attempts to find a house
keeper If she had experienced the
usual difficulties, disappointments and
vexations, there would be no cause for
establishment, but when she deliberate
ly announces that she has found the
solution of the servant girl question,
and has had applications too numerous
Ito mention from "dressmakers, clerks,
typewriters, saleswomen, stenograph-
ers, widows, nurses" teachers and
other women of education, all the world
wonders. One is tempted to inquire
now many of her eighty applicants
knew whom they were addressing and
how many were attracted by Mrs.
Wards personality and literary fame.
Her assertion is that American wom-
en- by the score were ready to ask ad-
mission to home where they would
be well treated, and perform its rough
est duties" In all her list there were
only two or three professional servants
Tact and good treatment are essential
factors in the management Of servants,
but the average housewife will be slow
to generalize from Mrs. Wards expe-
rience, or to believe that the servant
girl problem is about to be solved by a
wonderful influx of intelligent, high
class help from other vocations that
are open to women. Without doubt,
the people would profit individually
and collectively by such result, but it
is too suggestive of the millennium to
seem probable.

President Rossiter who not only grant

running time, wages and other accom-
modations, but commended them for
joining the labor unions and promised
them a clubroom, a billiard table and

amazed by the sudden turn Of affairs
is putting it softly, for Rossiter has
been painted in the attitude of tyrant

Ex-Gov. Hogg of Texas discharged
rockets and Roman candles and all
kinds Of fireworks in the wigwam of
Tammany yesterday 1t is to the credit
of Tammany Hall that it doesn't want
Bryan, and is opposed to the free
coinage Of silver at 16 to /. But with
that impetuosity which characterizes
the free silver shouters who devote 16
days to talk to of thought, Hogg made
platform for the democracy in the
next national campaign which contained
about everything that the eastern dem
ocrats who furnish the sinews of war,
abhor. Tammany ought to pick its
Fourth of July orators with more dis
erection. When a man like Hogg, upon
whom Texas tanglefoot has no more
effect than distilled water, samples the
dilettanti drinks of Gotham on a hot
summers day, his speech is likely to be
filled with sky rockets, "nigger
chasers" and all manner of strange ex-
plosives. If the democratic party ex-
poets to cut any figure at all In the
east in the next campaign, it will have
to keep its Hogs in the sage-brush in
stead Of bringing them into New York.

From the fact that 1860 miles of steam

From the fact that 1860 miles of steam
railroad track have been laid during the
first half of the current year, the Chi
cago Railway Age infers that the re-
cord for the year will exceed 1000 miles
which would be more than have been
laid in this country since $780,. The ex-
tension Of trolley lines takes up all the
spare capital in New England, but in
the south, the northwest and the Paci-
fic states, there is still room fer the
growth of steam lines. In all New
England, it is said, only IA miles of
railroad track have been laid in the
past six months, and that in Vermont
and Connecticut

they so generously confer on one who

day, on account of the recent shower

for the war then well underway, but
no notice was taken of his patriotic ten
der by said one term functionary.
