Two COIOred Women Made 1t Lively
for PatrOIman Cox.

Patrolman Cox was attracted to the cor
ner of Court and Liberty streets last night
about o'clock by the screams of women.
He found two colored women, Ella Strange,
$40 East Court street, and Nellie Lee, 6l6
damaging each others coiffures. Patrol
man Cox tried to separate the enraged
women but was unable to do so. He began
Jerking at them and the two women then
abated their personal struggle for a few
moments and turned their attention and
fistic powers on the policeman. A young
white man was passing and PatrOlman Cox
found fully 500 sight-seers surrounding the
belligerents and the policeman. Cox was
unintured but the two women lost a great
amount of hair Both were arrested on
charges of assault and battery and disturb
ing the peace.

NOT 4 EIi FIR.

General Miles has written letter to a Boston man in which he says that he is not a candidate for the Presidency of the United States. Tn this letter he says; You desire information as to the truth or falsity of the newspaper re- ports from Washington making me an active candidate for the Presidency, I deeply regret these reports. Like many others in the past, they are absolutely unauthorized. They do not emanate from myself, nor from my friends, and trust that the public will not be misled by them. I have not been, and am not now, a seeker for Presidential honors. My ambition has ever been to faithfully serve my country in whatever sphere duty may have dictated, and this will be my sole purpose in the future.'
 A politician would say that this isn' t any sign that General Miles wouldn't take a nomination. And if he said he wouldn't many would say that they didn't believe him or that he hadn't bet ter refuse a nomination before it was offered him. But he is entitled to be believed when he says that he isn't 'an active candidate" or "a seeker for Pres idential honors.'

PkEP1RING TO EL J.

If people who visit the St. Louis fair are able to see a flying machine that will fly well they will see something
 worth seeing. The prize of $200,000 of fered by the Special Committee on Aerial Navigation has brought a num- ber of inventors into the field, and there is no doubt that the competition will be much greater than had been supposed David E, Page of Chicago is one who will try for the prize for a sue cessful flying He thinks that all experiments heretofore made in aerial navigation have been along the wrong lines, and that the successful flying machine will not be balloon shaped, but will rely on overcoming gravity by motion as the spinning top overcomes gravity by it's motion, and stands erect. Another machine, also from Chicago and con structed by w. c. Morgan, will be a competitor. The device is equipped with wings and is built on a novel prin- ciple. Instead of being fashioned after a bird the four winged dragon-h isused as a model. Twelve wings or more, equally divided on a small body, will be used to carry the machine and the mo- tive power is to be furnished by gaso- line and hot-air engines. The frame work is made of aluminium and the wings will be made of the same ma terial or of silk. He claims with the other inventor that machines which de- pend upon gas for their lifting power are altogether too bulky for success in steering.
 A year is short time to get ready for the great exposition, and it is a short time to get ready for flying. If both feats are done St. Louis will be able to crow over Chicago in 1908.

TOO RICH,

New Jersey is rich--too rich in the opinion of it's governor. Some of its money has come very easily All it has had to do was to encourage "the trusts" to use it's accommodating laws. They have freely responded to the en- couragement What are called "miscel- laneous corporations" put $1 574 into New Jerseys treasury last year, The surplus has reached two and a third millions, and the governor says; "Too large a surplus should not be allowed to accumulate. It is larger now than a safe and conservative regard for the interests of the State requires. It be- longs to the people of this generation, and should not be held for the benefit of the next He therefore recom mends that it be employed in a reduc tion of the school taxes, the enlarge ment and repair of State institutions, where needed, the substantial increase of the appropriation for public roads or in such other manner as the legislature in it's wisdom may consider best
 New Jersey will not have much trouble in getting rid of it's surplus if it sets out to do it. Some of the combi- nations which New Jersey has encour- aged have got rid of their surplus, and New Jersey can get rid of hers.

CROKER AND THE GIRL OF

The other afternoon Richard Croker was seated in an easy chair before one of the windows of his famous ornate room on the second floor of the Demo-
 cratic club. He was alone and smoking cigar. There was q slight scuftle out side his door and then a sudden knock on the door, and in response to the boss "come in," there entered q pretty | young woman in tidy rainy day skirt a neat tan jacket, well fitting, high | topped shoes and an Alpine hat with a | feather rakishly stuck in the band.

I'm going to photograph you In your nice room, you know" she went on, addressing the stupefed Tammany boss
 Now, the Tammany boss has always made it a strict point that his Demo- cratic club apartment should not be photographed, and some of the New York yellows have failed dismally in their attempts to get picture of the apartment.
 The Tammany leader stared at the young woman too amazed to say any thing. He took his cigar from his teeth and his jaws came together with click while she smiled at him and pro- ceeded to get her camera in working order

Of course, the picture'll be all the better with you sit ting there by the window, Er-just put that shade up a little higher, will you, please?"
