SAYS IT Is FOR GOOD OF THE PUBLIC.
West Tenth-st Track Would Save SO 900
Transfers a Day, 1t Is Asserted.

The application of the Metropolitan Street Rail
way Company for a franchise TO the short block
in West feminist, between Sixth and Greenwich
aves., for single track to connect the downtown
track of the electrical line in SiXth-ave. with the
crosstown track in West Tenth-st.. running from
Greenwich-ave. to the Christopher-st. ferry, has
been before city authorities for several years
The company has connected the crosstown line in
Chrstopher-st with the up track in Sixth-ave.. and
the motive power of the crosstown line has been
changed 10 electricity. but the company will never
be able to through between the shopping
district in Sixthave- and the Christopher-st ferry
unless the track can be laid in the short block
north of the jefferson Market court III feminist
The Board of Estimate and Apportionment
wants s125O0 for right of way past the Jefferson
Market court representative of the company
said when all the other property owners in the
block have given consents free. and there Is a
legal question if the City demand such fee in
addition TO the other franchise charges it demands.
The company has given freely the city the right
OF way for the subway under its tunnel in Park
ave- and has given its consent to disturbances of
in other parts of the subway yet the city
refuses to give right of way connection which
would benefit the city more than the company. At
the present time 5000 people turned the
street from the company's and receive
transfers daily Sixth-ave. and Eighth-st. They

absolutely pure, and possesses more curative
power than all other medicines It contains no
fusel oil. common in other whiskeys and
which is a dangerous ingredient in whiskey
especially for the diseased system, when the
poison takes effect.

SAMUEL M. JONES.
The Mayor of Toledo Talks of His
 Profit-Sharing Plans.

II. E. Armstrong In AinSlee' s.
 Samuel M. Jones. Mayor of Toledo, student. thinker and humanitarian, who sends check representing per cent of wages to each of his employees at Christ mas, and gives to each copy of his breezy Letters of Love and Labor talks to them in Golden Rule Park on almost every Sunday afternoon in summer, or gets some other man of ideas to talk to them. conducts a kindergarten for the children in Golden Rule House, takes his work people on picnics up the river, and sees that everybody has weeks vaca- ton with pay, has an abiding faith in profit-sharing as the first step in the economic revolution which Is to bring the millennium nearer.
 :" 'Profit-sharing.' he said, the other of cooperation and, though there is not much of an outward manifestation. I be- lieVe that the cooperative spirit Is grow ing throughout the country and the world. believe that by the slow pro- cesses of growth and evolution after the slow lapse of years, society is going to realize perfect democracy in industry and the brotherly relations in life out lined in the history of the early Chris tians, where we are told that No man said that aught he possessed was his own, neither was there any among them that lacked, but distribution was made to each according as any had need" do not believe that there ito be an
 
 bring about a change from the present capitalistic and profit-getting system to socialistic state of affairs-that is, do not believe that the socialists will ever take forcible possession of land and the instruments of production as they say; but through the growth of intelligence each man will come to see himself as part of the whole. and come to under stand that only as he co-operates from that standpoint can he in any proper sense realize happiness. I believe that the trust movement is an indication of the growing spirit of cooperation i'm moral in it's primary aspect because it is inspired by the desire for bigger profits. but 1t is really religious in its results that is, it eliminates waste. It's failure is found in the fact that it does not just ly distribute the saving effected by the economy of combination. The next step. and the inevitable one. as I believe. is cooperation In the field of distribution that will involve the men who work with their hands a. well as those who work with their heads"

As Green Saw Grant,

After memorial serfvice in Westmin- ster Abbey at which General Grant, then travelling in England was present, Dean Stanley asked John Richard Green, the historian, to go into the deanery It was to introduce Mir. Green to the American General. The presentation took place. Grant shook hands and said: MT. Green" in d dry voice. and said no more This moved the Englishman to write to a friend: "I think Grant seems to rival inc man who can be silent in eleven Ian- guages, " and to tell story of another taciturn man, Moltkc. A young suhal- tern found himself put hy error into the same compartment with the Prussian field marshal.
 Pardon. sir" said the subaltorn when he entered. and Pardon. sir" when the train stopped and he could at last re- tire.
 What an insufferahle prater!" said Moltke.
 In the course of the conversation that afternoon Dean Stanley talked of the ex Presidents laying down the scepter which Green thought hardly a republican phrase. but Lord OHagan, to whom he repeated it. promptly said
 Grant must have laid down soma thing; he had no crown to lay down. and he certainly would not lay down his pipe"
 Grant is short, square, bour- geois-looking man, rather like a shy but honest draper is the finishing touch to this unaffected sketch. which has been taken from Greens Letters" Still he could take a look of dignity when one was pre sented and did not forget that he had been ruler of men"

PEOPLE TALKED ABOUT.
Interesting Notes of Some of Those
 in the Public Eve.

Mr. Bryan, while in Boston. was the guest of Mayor Collins. who is of all men perhaps the most loyal to Grover Cleve- land and what Grover Cleveland repre- sents in politics.
 Henry Watterson is a fairly good musi- clan, and it was at one time. a serious question with him as to whether he should take up music or Journalism as a profession.
 Richard Elkins, son of Senator Stephen B. Elkins, is described as a chip of the old block. On January 1. he sold his fa- ther tract of coal land in West Vir- ginia and cleaned up $12,0O0 on the deal. A friend secured the options for young Eikins and he engineered the deal with his father.
 Some one was telling a Western Sena- tor that in his opinion President Roose- welt was perhaps better fitted for the routine work of the White House than any of our other recent Presidents for he knows the clerical and personal side of the government as few other men know it. ''I should say he did replied the Senator. "The other day I went up to ask him to reappoint United States Marshal out in my State. l had no soon- CT mentioned the officials name than the President broke in: 50 the internal scoundrel is still in office, is he? l re- member him in the days when I was in the civil service commission And that is as far as I got with my errand," add ed the Senator sadly.

A RARE POEM.

Really the finest literary production we have seen recently is The Vision of Bienville." written by Miss Annie L.. shillito of Mobile and read at the Mobile celebration of the Two hundredth Anni- versary of the founding of Fort Louis de la Mobile. It is rather lengthy. con sisting of 22s li.es, written in the spen- serian measure, but its length dctracts nothing from its excellence from a literary rcint of view, or from it's ap- propriateness to the time and the occa- sion. That such a poem should have been written by school girl, for she is yet in her teens and will not graduate until next Iuns, is evidence of remar- kable poetic and literary taste. Young as she is she has already written a num- Der of poems, but we doubt if any of :hem can compare with ''The Vision which is printed in this issue of The Advertiser

Birmingham's Arrest Record.

Birmingham Age-Heraid.
 The valued Montgomery Advertiser thus booms a portion of Alabama:
 New Bedford, Mass, must be a tough CT town than Birmingham. judging from The Standards hint to prudent men to stay indoors, at night. or hire guard when compelled to go out"
 If the number of arrests has any re- lation to crime. it must be confessed that The Advertiser Is correct in considering this a tough town. For out of a pop year numbered 10.N9. One in four of us was locked up, and over s25,000 was col lected from us in fines last year in the Inferior Court. The Inferior Court is more than self-supporting, and perhaps as much should be said of the police force.
 But is such a revenue desirable or just? From whom is it taken? In New York. which contains more negroes than Birmingham has people of all sorts, more immigrants and more criminals than any other American town. the arrests each year are about one In thirty-three. Here they are one in four.
 Will some student of criminologv or rather of municipal government explain these differences?
 In the year 1900 there were 9,626 ar rests in this town; last year there were lO,OO9 This year we may cross the 1l,OO line. Our course is upward at any rate in this respect-tha' is to say more ana more of us are iugged each year. At lantl. Ga. and Butte, Mont, have un- enviable records. but neither outshines Birmingham in the matter of arrests. while the rest of the country is content with about a per cent. record. We seem to have a 25 per cent record
 In very truth, does not this subject deserve careful vestgation at the hands of competent men? If there Is something rotten in Birmingham. let us know what it is, Let us get at the inwardncsS of arrests that are at least eight-tenths unmatched in other towns. Let tho ar rests of month be analysed by an oXDprt
