There are great businesses founded
on ten per cent short 1t is queer
that a man or concern'll expose his
or it's nakedness SO T.: but he does. and

But that isn't all TO look out for.
Some give full measure, and cheat
in the quality What do you naint
for. the looks? or to keep your house
from rotting? Both, of course.
A big hotel-man painted Devoe
eight years ago was going to paint
it again-eight years Is good long
time for hotel. Won now-struck q
bargain: saved five cents a gallon /:
and missed Devoe.
Poor fellow There isn't an az. of
lead in his Daint-we don't know how
good or how bad it is but there Ism t
any lead in IL.
Yours truly,

HATE AFTER DEATH
The Fight of General Ramsay's
Enemies to Suppress
His Name.


There will be more trouble at the meet
ing OF C. Van Houten Post, No 8, G.
a. r., tonight, when the, two factions
clash again over the question as to
whether the naros Of deceased members
shall be called at meetings. As the fight
stands the faction favorlng the calling
OF names has the upper hand,
The members against the reading Of
names accuse the other faction OF violat-
ing the constitution. inssmuch as they
passed a resolution providing for the call
ing of the hate General Ransay's name
for a year, when the constitution says
that names shall be called fer a period
OF thirty days after the death of mem
bers.
Two resolutions proposing, amendments
to the constitution will be introduced to-
night. One by the faction opposed to the
calling of names provides that no names
of deceased members be called hereafter,
and the Ramsay supporters viii have
their resolution provide for the calling Of
names indefinitely. 1t takes two-thirds
vote to amend the constitution.
A friend of the late General Ramsay
said this morning that Ramsay was the
making of the Post. 1t was said that he
brought about one hundred and fifty Of
the present two hundred and fifty mem
bers into the Post and that all Of these
members were in favor Of calling the
names.

TUNNEL PLANS
Arrangements Made to Com
plete the Work AS Soon
AS Possible.

Arrangements to complete the old Hud-
son River tunnel are now under way and
within few days men will be at work
on the project
1t has been said that the tunnel has
row passed INTO the hands Of the Jersey
City and New York Railroad Company by
I foreclosure and on the board Of directors
Of the concern figure prominent men iden-
tilted with the North Jersey Stret Rail-
way Co.
President E. F. c. Young of that COM
pany in speaking about the rumor said
that so far as he was concerped he had
not heard about it. He knew that soma
land north and south of the tunnel en-
trance on the Jersey side had been
bought.
1t is understood that the tunnel will be
opened for travel within two years. Work
on the tunnel was originally started in
1874, and has been several times inter-
rupted The work has been completely
abandoned since 1892
From the New Jersey side 1850 feet have
been opened, and about $50 from the New
York side The entire width of the river
on the line of the tunnel is 5000 feet. In
Jersey City the tunnel starts from the
foot of Fifteenth street, and in New York
from the foot of Morton street.
1t is reported that the Metropolitan Street
Railway Company will make connection
with the Manhattan end of the tunnel,
and among the company's employees
the rumor is current that the approach
will be opened from Sixth avenue at JEFF
ferson Market to Morton or Leroy street.
Arrangements are now being made to
substitute electricity for horses on the
line to and from Christopher street, con-
Meeting with the main system in Sixth
avenue at Jefferson Market, and little adj
ditional outlay will be required for q
branch to the tunnel, except for right of
way
Heavy purchases of real estate are said
to be in negotiation both in Manhattan
and in Jersey City to secure approaches
to the tunnel.
