WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC
In ali our much-vaunted progress toward
the higher civilization Of daily life and
habit, we Americans seem to have remained
blind to one glazing defect which custom
has apparently robbed US Of the power to
condemn as it deserves.
/ allude to the utterly irrational way Of
carrying our winter pleasures. the enter
tainments that belong by right to our sea-
son Of urban gayety, into the long, hot
months when nature and the unfettered
heart OF mankind cry aloud for simpler
Joys.
All other nations save our own have a
time when the leaders and participants in
social diversion withdraw from the theater
of their conspicuous performances before
the world and enshrine themselves in the
seclusion OF country homes. where nothing
happily occurs that Is worthy OF chronicle
in print
The lady Of the British aristocracy seeks
her northern moor or castle, where. clad in
serge, with a sailor hat. she is abroad all
day In the heather. or on the water not to
be distinguished in action or attire from the
schoolgirl Off for her holiday.

During her months Of inaction In the serv-
ice Of the gay world she is at least storing
up fresh powers Of enjoyment against the
time when duty calls her to take her place
again as q purveyor In fashions mart.
And she has generally tact enough TO see
that people are more glad to welcome back
a favortte than to applaud her every day.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS

Hunters in this section report plenty of game. The majority of them have had good luck so far this season and have no complaint to make.
 On Friday evening at the Third Congregational church Thomas B. Walker will deliver a lecture OH Scotland, London and Westminster Abbey"
 Captain Charles A. McEvoy of the Brooklyn fire house suffered a painful injury to his right hand last night He was engaged in assisting in oiling the engine which was jack ed up, when the prop gave way and the captains hand was caught be- tween the prop and a part of the en- zine. Two of his fingers were badly smashed Dr Russell dressed the irl- jured members.
 This is the season of the year when repairs should be made to doors and windows Of houses. If there are any broken panes of glass, have them re- moved and new ones put in their places. If any windows are minus a pane of glass or two, put in new ones at once. All these things should be done now before the cold weather sets in. Fine glass and the best of putty can be secured at A. o. Walkers phar- macy.

 pee Again To-Day.
 William Mooney who was before the city court few days ago, was there again to-day. The same old complaint was charged against him, 1ntox1catfon. When he was up, week ago he was given 120 days pro- patton to pay his fine. The cause of his getting drunk then was serious accident in factory in Seymour by which he lost part of his left hand and four fingers. It appears he contem- plated suit against the company for yesterday he was paid S25O in settle ment for his injuries. He came to town immediately and paid his fine to Omcer Combellack and then lie pro- ceedeQ to get drunk. He succeeded so well that he was fined $5 and costs again this morning by Judge Burpee. He has a good deal of the S25O still left. s-t
 Nicholas Pagan was charged with non-support Pagan is a blacksmith ana competent to earn good wages when sober. But it seems he has great difficulty in keeping in that con- dltlon. He was ordered to pay his wife S6 or go to jail for 60 days.
 George Talwasz was charged with intoxication, carrying weapons and in resisting arrest. The weapon con- sisted of foot of half inch lead pipe covered with rubber. He said he kept It for protection. He is employed nights by the Benedict & Burnham Co. He was arrested last evening on Bank street, Brooklyn by Officer Hayes. The court did not believe his excuse for carrying the lead pipe. and said chat resisting arrest is one of the worst offenses that comes to the notica of the city court. Talwasz was fined S5 and costs for intoxication, S5 and costs for resisting arrest. He paid up
 Michael Lawlor was given one week to comply with the plumbing or1i- nance. Lawior is putting an addition to house he owns on South Main street. Instead of using iron pipe he has used tile pipe. This is contrary to the ordinance. But Lawlor thinks tile pipe is better than iron pipe That was considered no excuse, however, and unless he has made the necessary change in a week he will be punished. Lawlor spoke of sueing the city for causing him lot of damage and trouble in making the changes to his house. but Judge Burpee said that that was another matter altogether.

 A motion for hearing in the Wright vs Atkinson suit for S1O,o0O for aliena- tions of Mrs Wright's affections has been set down for one of the first mat ters at short calendar in the superior court Friday morning.
