LIVE NOTES
ABOUT TOWN

dent they were old friends and they
looked like seafaring men. Judging
from their actions they were not what
might be termed strictly sober" As
they took seats together in the smoking
cabin of a Courtlandt street ferry boat
the little fellow, who wore q regulation
steamship officers cap. began to explain
how it all happened. His friend listened
attentively a few minutes, and then, as
though hypnotized by the powerful rhe-
toric, dozed off into a deep slunber.
The little fellow, however, went right
on with is explanation, gesticulating to
the sleeper between each word, while the
other passengers looked on with amuse-
ment. The scene ended abruptly when
the ferryboat bumped into its slip on
this side of the river.
A policeman Of the Seventh Street
sta ton was made the victim of a neat
little joke about dusk last evening.
While patrolling his post q mischievous
lad rushed up to him and said
"OHcer run around the corner quick
as you can, somebody's being held up and
robbed"
Without waiting to hear any more the
efRcer rushed around the corner. He
found two small boys playing highway
men with playmate. One boy was
holding a toy pistol in his hand. The
policeman was forced to laugh. Now
he is looking for the joker.
Greenville ''cops' have no end of trou-
Bile when they go out fishing. a few
days ago Patrolman Charles Meyers
boat was carried out to the Narrows by
the swift current, and Monday Patrol
men Moulton and Quoting had an excit-
ing experience in the New York Bay.
These two were fishing for tomceds.
Moulton's line got caught in some wreck
age. He pulled hard to unfasten it when
a sudden iurching of the boat sent him
overheard. He could not swim and his
companion had no end of trouble pulling
him back to the boat. Moulton almost
froze to death in his wet clothes. 1t was
some time before he got home to change
his 'togs."
Justice of the Peace-eleet Timothy
Aarons, of the Seventh ward, is very
much worried because he fears he will lose
several wedding fees. 'srim" has the
promises of eight couples, he says, but he
does not know when he is to qualify.
Tim" says he wants the fees, but does
not believe the couples will wait until
he becomes qualified.
II can't see that the Evening Journal
need worry about Little Italy Park sink
ing through to China" said a Newark
avenue pedestrian, passing the park yes
terday; sbut if we 90 lose it we'll lose
some very fertile ground. | never saw
grass grow SO fast in my life as in that
park. During spell last summer when
it rained seven days week, a man was
kept constantly at work cutting the grass.
He certainly did not have a sinecure.
The grass grew as fast as could cut it,
and he was a hard worker. He'd start
from Newark avenue and in about day
or so would reach the opposite end. The
next day the grass was almost as tall as
it was the day before he cut it down. I've
actually seen him look back as though he
was watching the grass grow behind
him."

In New York City
it has been the habit
of those in authority
COUP.

to deliver air-tight orders to police
men, orders which are never intended
to be obeyed, and which no one is
ever punished for ignoring; and
when indignant citizens protest that
laws are being openly violated, the
officials lay the blame on the poor
patrolmen, and claim that it is i'm
possible to secure force that will
implicitly obey orders. Last week
about forty policemen in one district
did something which had not oo-
Cured before within the memory Of
the oldest inhabitant. They obeyed
orders. They went out on their
beats and arrested eighteen men in
one small precinct for alleged infrac-
tions of the excise laws. Whether
or not any convictions are secured,
or such breaches of discipline are al
lowed to continue, the patrol is
vindicated. Never again can those
in authority hypocritically sigh for
pure, incorruptible men on the force.
The citizens know what the police
would like to do if they were al
lowed to humor their inclinations,
which may eventually lead to their
being permitted to do so.

house John," the municipal voters
league of Chicago, has lost considerable
prestige. Practically abandoning the
other men who secured it's endorsement,
the league threw all Of its power into
the fight against Coughlin, who was
pictured as the embodiment of all that
the leaguers detest. He was elected,
however, and worse, he received nearly
three thousand majority. This will
probably cause some doubt to arise as
to the potency of the leagues endorse
ments. 1t may even lend color to the
often expressed idea that in Chicago
the endorsement Of the law and order
faction is detrimental to the interests of
candidate. This view receives sup
port from the fact that those candidates
whom the league endorsed, but made
no particular effort to elect, were tri-
umphantly elected nearly to man.

Twenty seven years
RETRIBUTION. ago grass-hoppers
destroyed Nebraska
crops. Nebraska has been waiting for
a chance to even things with the locusts
ever since, and at last the opportunity
is offered. Disease germs of fungus
kind will be bottled and sent to farmers
in all parts of the state. The farmer
will place in the bottle several dozen
grass-hoppers, the number depending
upon the amount of labor he is willing
to donate to the good cause. The To-
Gusts will quickly become infected,
when they will be released, with the ex-
ception of a few which will be allowed
to die, and will afterwards be used to
spread the disease among other hoppers
which will be captured and placed in a
box with them. This endless chain will
destroy the hoppers, and the pioneers of
the early '7Os, who saw their crops
devoured by the hungry pests, will at
last see the crime avenged. The fungus
has been used in South Africa with
marked success.
