SATURDAYS 1RAGE EDT.

TWenty-two to nothing, and 1t is lucky that there is no below zero" in football. No wonder the heavens hid their blue yesterday and wept It would be well if veil could be drawn over Saturdays tragedy, but unfortu- nately there is no veil opaque enough
 to conceal it. It must therefore con-
 tinue to stick out in all its horrific hid eousness until it is mitigated by the
 tooth of time or offset by a similar tragedy in which the woe is differently placed.
 There seems to be no dispute about the facts. and no room for any. All the reasonable explanation of such a score Is that the folks who got the twenty-two played all around and all over the folks who got the nothing. This is the explanation given. Of course the Harvard eleven had the President of the United States roofing for them. They were on their native gridiron and surrounded by cloud of friendly wit nesses. The wind that bloweth where it listeth listed to blow in their favor, and the Harvard band also blew in their favor But Yale has overcome such things as these. What she could nt overcome was the solid and skilful playing of the redS So she fell and what fall was there! But she is not down to stay down. The concussion which her football brain has suffered is not serious, and she will yet arise and strew the plain with those who have just strewed the plain with her. When she does it it will be a sight to see.

Putnam's Reprehensibio Loop.

ct is now claimed that General Israel Putnam never made his historic ride down the stone steps, but that he took a round- about course through hidden lane.) They've knocked the pins from under good
 old Jonah and the whale; They've proved he never took that thrilling
 inside way to sail; They've shown by facts and figures that
 fair Helen and the horse Did not affect the Trojans with some sad
 and sore remorse; And now they rise to taunt us with derisive
 jeer and whoop- They said that good old Putnam made the
 biggest kind of loop! They say he never galloped down the fa-
 nous stairs of stone; That If he had he must have most infalli-
 ply been thrown; And, anyway. he wasn't there; and. If he
 was, beside, He couldn't take the flying trip-he had
 no horse to ride; And, furthermore. to history each school
 boy is q dupe Because, instead of jumping stairs, old
 Put just looped the loop. Goodbye to Put" he's gone way back
 with Jonah to sit down; Along with Molly Pitcher, who ne'er tucked
 her woolen gown And fred the noisy cannon at the Britisher
 dragoons;
 and the spoons; Take Putnma from the Hall Of Fame and
 pitch him off the stoop; They've proved by diagram and chart he
 only looped the loop.

SOME MISPLACFD CONFID ENCE.

It has already been discovered that some of the trusts are more to be feared by the investors in their 'securi- ties" than by anybody else, and there are indications that there will be more such discoveries. Philadelphia inves- tors who have put much money into the bonds of the American Asphalt com pany are gnashing their teeth while the price of the bonds goes down. The company was formed to take over what was supposed to be all the important concerns engaged in the paving busi- ness in the United States. It started with an issue of thirty millions of dol lars of bonds, secured upon the proper ties acquired, and an authorized capital of thirty millions of dollars, of which six millions of dollars was paid in cash. These bonds, when placed upon the market by those who received them in payment for their properties, were largely sold in Philadelphia, and at
The daily morning journal and courier., 1901-11-25

prices ranging from 90 to 95. The bonds have dropped to about 40 cents on the dollar, and are being unloaded by the panic stricken holders at the rate of half a million or more a day It was supposed by the purchasers of the bonds who took them at a price near par that there was $24,000,000 of unpaid and assessable stock standing behind them as a guarantee, but now there doesn't seem to be anything be- delphia Record that since the days of the Oregon Pacific securities floated in this market by a local house now out of existence, no like disastrous results have marked any local investment in bond issues, and in the Oregon Pacific transaction the loss to Philadelphians was not more than $5,000,000. Gauged by the present market price, the losses of Philadelphians in American asphalt securities must represent at least twice that amount"
 Trust them not, they're fooling thee is an appropriate thing to sing con corning some of the trusts The inves- tors who get into the wrong trusts will wish they had been more distrustful.

COSTLY, BUT YALUA BILE.

It costs something to have an election in New York city. The last one cost about s670,000 rate of $1.0S for every voter who was registered. Under the law all election bills must be paid with in twenty days after the polling, and the auditing clerks of the city have been very busy in preparing for these payments. There are in the city 1,537 election districts, and during the four registration days four inspectors were engaged in each district and were paid $40 per day. The rent of registration and polling places was $50 in Manhat- tan $45 In Brooklyn and the Bronx and $35 in Queens and Richmond. On cleo tion day each polling place was provid- ed with eight men. who were paid from SS to SIP for their services, the pay of these inspectors and clerks amounting to the enormous total of $319,6 ,696. The advertising of nominations, polling places and the boundaries of the cleo tion districts amounted to s90000, the printing of the ballots cost 5000 and s3o, 900 more was spent for stationery and supplies.
 These are large figures, but they don't include the cost of the election to Tam many.

<,yoyHER BoID POLICEMAN.

Policeman O'Neil of New York defied Devery, made some revelations and got discharged. Policeman Duplain of New Orleans has just talked plainer than ONeil did, and he is going to have an opportunity to prove his charges. He asserts that the New Orleans force is rotten from top to bottom. He made his charges at a meeting of the Police board, and did not spare member of the board, who was present, and whom he accused of receiving s25 a week from the Louisiana Lottery combine. Du- plain had received money himself for protecting lawbreakers, he acknowl- edged. The commanding officer of the precinct in which he worked sold him at so much a week. and he took the money that was allotted him as the share of the policeman on the beat. He deposited 1t all, over S400, however, in savings bank, and stands ready to make such disposition of it as the Po- lice board may direct. "The command ing officers barter away the privileges of running vicious establishments, and the patrolman who wants to be honest has no chance" continued Duplain. "At least two of the courts which should suppress crime protect It."
 Policeman Duplain is a systematic man. He has carefully kept record showing the number. dates and amounts of bribes he has taken and his experience since he joined the force He has already made a decided stir, and he expects to make more.

The theorists, visionaries and faddists
 among them have become almost a dis
 appearing quantity. The fact is due to
 their better education. It is due neith-
 CT to the higher nor the lower educa- ton, whatever they may be. It is due
 to education in it's broad, true and best sense Some of that education has
 come from schools. Some of it has
 come from clubs But more of it has come from the life and from the home. from the interest of women in the press, , In literature, in the lyceum, and in all the earnest expressions of the age.
 And it has come not only to sway but
 to stay and not only to stay but to grow, and not only to grow but to dom- mate. It is making conduct of more account than creed It is making churches in their relation to conduct and to human conditions of more &C., count than in their relation to dogma. It is making education of more account in its equipment of faculty and in it's rounding and ripening and perfecting of character than in its mere relation to the transfer of the contents of books to the attention or study of pupils. And womanhood, thus cultivated, the conscience of 1t thus enlightened, is becoming the leaderof all womanhood, just as the best manhood has long been, or if it knew itself could at any time long have become the leader of all man. hood. The new agents of the peoples will, whom the womanhood of New York directly or indirectly so largely helped to put in power, are entitled to all the best aids of the best woman hood of the city as tempering and as an inspiring force in their duties. And the press of New York, virtually a unit on behalf of the things which make for the right, is entitled to those aids and Inspirations and should not expect them in vain.--Brooklyn Eagle.

WOMANHOOD AND AFFAIRS.

The influence of women in current af- fairs cannot be denied and should not be resented. It is not an influence which neither the friends nor the ene- mics of better conditions in govern ment fully appreciated. The friends of those conditions appreciate it now, and the enemies Of them resent it now. But at the outset of q recent struggle some of the friends of right conditions gravely apprehended possibilities of danger and of damage from the signs of organized activity on the part of women on municipal lines and distinct ly for municipal purposes.
 Those apprehensions were unfounded The women showed sanity, unity, per- They did not mount the platform or make addresses. They did not in large numbers frequent public meetings, with the result of disDlacing voters, upon whose ballots the decision would turn But they made their views of forbidden and abhorrent forces and conditions known in effective publica- tions, and they secured the circulation of those views in such quarters and in such large numbers as raised mu- nicipal contest to the plane of moral crusade, and as made the victory which has been obtained the victory of the people, the despair Of partisans, and the Reimbursement of those who have been chosen to execute the public will There is no political organization

DECISION BY JUDGE ToULMIN. Question of Ownership of Mobile
 River Front

Mobile. Ala, Oct. 1.-Judge Toulmin, of 3he Circuit Court in equity today rem dered an important decicion against the efty of Mobile. The suit involved the ownership of the wharf property along he river front within the limits of the kfty. The question was ones of riparian rights and ownership, and Judge Touf- min decided that while the legal title to the land was in the name of the city. at was estopped from asserting the title because 1t had granted property owners the right to build wharves and bulk heads. This litigation involved the pos- session of the entire river front, valued at twenty millions of dollars, and this suit while 1t involved only about one hundred thousand of values, has settled the law as to the ownership of the river front and its many valuable improve ments, sheds, warehouses. docks, mills and bOomE, etc.
 The city claimed its title under an act by the General Assembly of Alabama in 4Ss7, granting 1t the shore and soil un- der Mobile River. The case was carried from the city and State courts to the Federal court
 h wharf case an appeal will be made mg ln other cases. The decision is simply that the equities are against the city. It ig not believed it will affect in any way elmAms of like character in the State courts now pending.
