The Republican state central
committee held a meeting Tues
day and decided to hold the
nominating convention for state
officers at Grand Rapids on June
~. This is an unusually carly
convention but it is perhaps as
we'll so as to get the vcXed ques-
ton Of nominees out Of the way
and begin to line up for the fall
election.

THE contest in South Africa
has petered out and British
troops arc in possession Of the
Transvaal capital Many sim
ccrcly regret that the people Of
this tiny Republic have been
crushed. They regret it more
because they firmly believe that
the motive of the war was a
dishonest one instigated By the
dishonesty of the men at the
helm Of the British government.
But now that war has been re-
resorted TO it is best for all that
the English have succeeded for
progress cannot be delayed even
though slight injustice comes
from ITS prosecution. 1t now re-
mains for the English people to
show the worldtoat magnanimity
that has been Characteristic Of
their cousins on this sideg Of the
water They found in the Beers
a worthy foe, now may The
Beers find IN them worthy con
querors.

truth OF the matter is that he has
never yet announced himself as
being in the field for the nomina.
ton. Yesterday however Mr..
Mead authorized the Journal to
state that he has determined to
seek the nomination, and that he
will use all honorable means in
his power TO secure IT, Mr..
Mead has been influenced TO take
this action by repeated solicita-
tons from many Of his numerous
friends throughout the peninsula,
who recognize his fitness for the
the office and believe his loyal
work for the Republican party
entities him to recognize. The
Journal firmly believes Mr..
Mead who has wisely kept free
from the factional fights which
have created hard feelings
throughout the district during
the past few years, will go into
the convention with a strength
that will surprise his opponents

New-York tribune., 1900-09-23

A meeting was held Thursday evening at the
Rverdale Library, at which this subject and others
We're taken up and discussed James Douglas presl-
dent, presided the meeting, which was largely at
tended by the property owners of the district A
discussion of the question Of the extension OF
Riverside Drive from the northern terminus or
the Boulevard Lafayette through Gnwood. thence
by viaduct across the Harlem Ship Canal and then
along the line of Palsade-ave. to the city limits
was had. and upon motion of William +. Dodge
a special committee appointed consisting or
George D. Perkins. Cleveland II. Dodge Thomas
y Cuthbert and John Jay McKelvey, to take up
this subject with the city authorities as well as TO
see that such legislation as is needed be drawn
with proper regard the interests Of the district
Action was also taken with respect to the esta5-
lishment Of a park on the Hudson River between
Spuyten Duyvu and Rverdale. Several years ago
a bill was passed by the Legislature which provided
for such park but loosely drawn that
II included much more property than was in
tended and was vetoed by Mayor Strong. II is
the proposal of the Park District Protective League
to bring this project up again and see that it Is
urged in proper form.
William Z Dodge brought up the question OF the
maintenance of the roads in the district and called
attention 10 the differences in method in the care
of the roads between this country and England.
Under the policy pursued by city administra-
tons a road is thoroughly overhauled and put in
shape and then allowed 10 lapse into an impassa-
HE state. when il is again oVerhaued at cOnsid-
cradle expense: abroad, when road Is put in con-
dition it is cared for by section provided with
material and tools remedy any small defect that
may appear. and the road is thus kept a less
expense in a continually good condition. He sug-
gested that the association take up the subject and
endeavor 10 prevail upon the Department Of High
ways TO adopt some such plan for the district. A
resolution was passed referring the matter TO
special committee 10 be taken UP suggested by
Mr.. Dodge.
4 committee also appointed apply 10 the
Park Department for the proper completion of the
Spuyten DuyVil Parkway.
Action was also taken with reference to the ques-
ton Of the proposed change in the line the New
York Central and Hudson River Railroad
avoid the grade CROSSINGS at Kingsbridge, and a
committee appointed TO cooperate with the
Kingsbridge Improvement Association.
The condition of the New-York Central tunnel
during the summer months formed the sub
iect Of animated discussion and it the gen
{ cral opinion that If there any way that the
New-Y York Central Road could be brought a
realization Of the manner in which its patrons suf
| fered action should be taken to that end.

Now however. when the old association is about

league has met with much opposition.
II is pointed out that the league has to practise
the strctest economy in order 10 get along with an
income derived from the annual dues Of fourteen
schools. The reduction in the number of schools
would not bring about reduction in expenses, so
that league Of five schools would require as large

dues for each school could not be tripled each
institution finds it difficult to raise the amount

WHAT NAY BE SEEN At THE BATTERY.

REPORTER LEARNS THE FASCINATION OF
GAZING INTO THE WATER.
People who visit the Battery are familiar with the
men, apparently the unemployed, who lean against
the stone posts along the wall and gaze non
chalantly into the water. Whether these men are
scientific observers simply draa mers it is hard
say; but in the course of a few hours they see
many curious things. A Tribune reporter who
happened TO be at the Battery the other afternoon
wondered what they were looking at. and in order
to find out leaned on post and began TO look be-
meath him.
First there was a procession of little green ba-
nanas that kept going one way and then another.
Some of the bananas became lodged in the rocks
and the reporters interest grew intense as he
speculated whether they would be able resist
the waves and stay there. big roller from a

in line with the bananas Then log of wood
came along, and after that a lot of barrel hoops.
slaves and the willow bindings of casks. For some
time after that nothing was be seen but the
waves themselves. and the reporter had time to
look out over the Harbor and watch the tugs and
ferryboats as they passed. Some of the tugs were
using bituminous coal probably taking the strike
among the anthracite miners as their excuse But
after quarter Of an hour or more bit of sea-
weed hoated along under the reporters feet and

The feature which most appeals to the average
undergraduate is the fact that hazng will probably
be in evidence. This hazing, really harmless IN
character. consists OF harassing humiliating and
embarrassing the sub-freshmen till their pride has
vanished and their spirit has attained the proper
degree Of lowliness. These results were achieved
thoroughly last June that the faculty was led 10
issue a proclamation forbidding students to haze
sub-freshmen in any way annoy them. This
proclamation. followed by threats Of expulsion
toward the guilty ones had the desired effect. and
the future freshmen permitted TO possess their
souls in 2eace.
Now, however after three months vacation
the fun may be expected 10 begin again tomorrow.
For the guidance Of the freshmen the sophomores
have adopted a Of rules violation Of which will

NEW YORK, Nov. I7.-An exhibition

expected that they win be able to trans
NIT messages at least 125 miles
The machines we're constructed accord

pressed as TO their practicability, but the
exhibition proved them a success.
II Is now probable that the construction
of much more powerful Instruments wiz
