| His name is Coler. Tammany wants the city and counties of New York. Kings
 Queens and Richmond. The republicans want the state. Watch the elections. I venture the opinion that Coler will run 4VOOO behind the ticket in these counties
 The best way to get rid Of an aspiring statesman" said Tammany leader, "is to let him show his strength at the polls.'' Coler is aspiring. He would like to be governor and if he could not be governor, he would like to be mayor Tammany does not want him for mayor. To get rid or him in 1903 this august body was glad to back him with the New York county delegation at the Saratoga convention. Alter MT. Coler had been nominated a Tammany leader who was a delegate and voted for him, said "Coler is lighter than a straw hat and he will blow away in November. Goodbye, birdie, goodbye"
 During the past week I had the good fortune to meet Dr. William Gavigan. of this city, of whom I had read much in scientific and medical journals, he having challenged universal attention by his treatment of diseases. I sought from him an explanation of his theory. Strip ping his statement of tecnnIcaI terms 1t appears that he introduces into the body medicants by means of electricity Years of study, observation and practice con vinced him that the basis of life was not due to food stuffs as a whole, but rather to ions or the electrically charged atoms contained within certain food stuffs which during the process of a healthy d. gestion were taken up by the Jelly of the principal nerve centers. The energy of power which causes the heart to beat Is dependent upon the energy or power of the ions in the jelly" Of the nerves. In his laboratory Dr. Gavigan solved the problem. of compromising medicamenr containing ions or electrically charged atoms similar to the potential clements of healthy nerve tissue; but 1t left before him still another problem, the method of conveying 1t to the nerve centers
 It was useless to convey by the stom- ach as in many diseases, the organs of digestion fan to take up Tn sufficient number ions or electrically charged atoms

this years racing history is one of which they may well feel proad. These stories are very annoying to Nr!~Brady and to General McLewee.
 A big increase in imports for the first three months of the new fiscal year Is the golden record of the custom house. and remarkable and encouraging feature of the statistics is that the jump exhibits itself in the line of raw material, and not of manufactured goods. This goes to show that we are becoming less and less dependent on foreign countries for certain classes of luxuries, that we can make them for ourselves better than they can make them for us. So far so good. But take the reserve of the medal To sell abroad, we must buy abroad, and 1t will not do to push the poor foreigner to hard.
 
 Mayor Low is in the tenth month of his administration, and the one department of the government in which 1t was ex- pected he would introduce radical reformation is in infinitely a worse con- dition than it was when he, with auto- cratic authority assumed the reigns of power I mean the police department. For the present a scapegoat has been found In the person of Colonel Thurston, the deputy commissioner, but his removal excites only ridicufe. The responsibility for the evils that exist lies higher up, In the office of Commissioner Partridge, who is about the most unfit man for the place that could be found. He knows nothing about the force; he is utterly ignorant of, or too weak to deal with the criminal conditions that confront him, and the re- suit is that the outlaws of society in every branch of crime are becoming more and more defiant. Since Partridge took the contract to preserve law and order In the metropolis thirty murders have been perpetrated and the murderers are still at large. It is doubtful if any one of them will ever be apprehended Every day lessens the chance of arrest Thirty three murderers are in the city prison. awaiting trial which will probably not take place for years to come Protected gambling and vice in all its forms four ish as openly and defantly as ever. There Is no attempt at concealment Not in years have burglars piled their trade so boldly as at the present time Foot pads hold up citizens in the most rre- quented parts of the big town, on inc steps of the city hall, in the glare of the electric lights of the big newspaper offices. The old street gangs have energ ed from their dens and dives and are no longer held in restraint. In a word, a feeling of terror Is beginning to pervade the entire community, and no one can predict what the end will be- Tammanv was bad. The situation under the re- form administration is infinitely worse Mr. Low means well. He came into office with the reputation of great adminis- trator. but that reputation Is now a vanishing quantity. Partridge was his great blunder and the stubborn persist ency with which he sticks to him. thus imperilling the life and property of the metropolis, making 1t one of the most unsafe places on the continent, if not in the world, is incomprehensible.

GOSSIP FROM NEW YORK.
BY JoH N MARTHoL.
Senator Sullivan the Real Boss in Tam E many-Coler Put Up to Be Beaten SC

RV EW YORK, Got u.-Mayor
 N Lows administration has been \ V e failure. Whether or no he has been responsible is a question which can be discussed in the library but not on the platform The public is interested in results not discussions. It points to the resorts of il-fama to the gamblers, to the primes. It points to the speeches of Jerome, to the pledges of Low. If they promised more than they could per- form Is a matter of no consequence. They promised to sweep clean, they have not done it. New York. therefore, Is once more back into the hands of Tammany. New men, younger men, have come to the front. They are the most promising They have taken the Square of Vantage at his word. He is down and out. sena- tor Sullivan's ostentatious friendship for Croker must not be taken seriously. He had the old man beaten at the conven- tion that nominated Shepard He spared him shame and defeat then; and as long as Croker stays away Sullivan will be his friend.
 Senator Sullivan is the real master of Tammmany Hall. His overthrow of the Belmonts was mere suggestion of his power. He sees the temper of the peo- pie in the electian of the Devery--Devery whose unpopularity one year before lost the control of Greater New York to the democrats. If the people could elect Devery the Tammany ticket is strong enough to elect the yellow dog" Hence the ornamental candidate Is unnecessary, hence the frost that nipped in the bud the congressional aspirations of the Hon. Perry Belmont and the Hon. Oliver Haz- ard Perry Belmont. When men of the social, financial and other qualifications of these gentlemen are put on the Tam many ticket the tiger needs dough- and society blood" to win with; when they. are tossed contemptuously to one side 1t Is self-evident the tiger" fears no foe.

Maxim Gorki.

Maxim GorlSi, the celebrated Russian novelist was for years little better than a tramp, gays American T1t-Bits. At hf- teen he ran away from home, and up to the age of twenty-five he scarcely had sufficient food to keep him alive. He worked alternately as day laborer, sawyer. a cook and lighterman. Then he heard that free instruction could be obtained at Kazan. and, having no money to pay for his journey, he walked there, a distance of over 600 miles. He there worked for a salary of shillings u month, studying hard during the even ings Then he became clerk In a law yer's office. where his literary talent was discovered, and he eventually made his mark.

Mrs. Astor has not been to many enter. tainments this summer. In fact, she was almost of mind to call in her cards for her ball. She Is very much upset about the Remington affair and sympathizes deeply with May Van Alen, who has been made so conspicuous by it. The ball last Friday closed her entertaining for the season. Mrs. John Jacob Astor has given several dinners, but will not entertain on any large scale She only remains month longer at Newport. She is to be this autumn at Ferncliff.

Springfield, Mass.

The body of Bert L. Tyler. 30. was
found Saturday afternoon in the small
pond near the Park avenue entrance
to Forest Park in Springfield. Mass 1t
was seen by f. II. Goldthwaite, who was
driving through the park. He notified
the park authorities who called the
police who took the body from the
water. 1t was found that TYLER had
cut his right wrist, evidently with the
intention of sovering the artery and he
had also inflicted two wounds i'm the
chest with the knife. None of the
wounds were serious enough to have
caused death The body was indentified
10y letters in the pockets of the clothes.

teemed at the latter place. and was pre-
scented with gold watch by a number of
the young people living there Mr.
Tyler had at times displayed traits which
were painful to his family and which
probably account in some measure for
his untimely death. His family has been

teemed and respected i'm Vernon. His
