NOT GOOD SERVICE.

1t is announced that new bargain is being
made by the Aqueduct Commission with the
New-York Central Railroad Company for the
rebuilding of the latter's road in the Croton
Valley. Let us piously hope it will not only be
made, but also will stay made. Such bargain
was made some time ago, but with its charac-
teristic disregard of duty the Aqueduct Com
mission neglected some essential details. The
result is that that bargain is now vOided, and
a new one has to be made, at an increased cost
to the city of 100000 or more. We don't blame
the railroad company. There is no reason to
suppose it is making a grab. The cost of doing
the work will probably be 100000 more now
than it would have been when the former con-
tract was made. But that has no more to do
with the case than have the traditional ''flow-
ers that bloom in the spring" The point is
that the railroad company was willing at that
time to do the work for that sum, and if the
Aqueduct Commissioners had had the proper
fidelity to duty, or the proper degree of COM
mon sense, they would have made a hard and
fast contract which would have been. binding
upon the company and which the company
would doubtless have fulfilled. We presume the
company would have done the work at once
and so would have been able to do it for the
stipulated sum. If not if il had delayed it until
prices rose, and then had to do it at loss to it.
self, that would have been its own lookout
This city is paying fat salaries to the Aqueduct
Commissioners to look out for the interests of
the city and not those of the New-York Central
Railroad Company
The conduct Of the commissioners in that
matter is of piece with their general perform
ance, or misperformance. of duty The COM
mission was created to see that the new Croton
Dam was built securely and expeditiously. 1t
has permitted that supremely important and
urgent work to be done with inexcusable dfIa-
toriness, and in a manner which throws the
gravest Of doubts upon its security A large
and integral part of the dam has, when nearly
completed, been found to be absolutely unsafe
and must be rebuilt at great expense and with
great delay to the whole work The results are
that the completion of the dam and consequent
increase Of the cty's water supply are indefi-
n1tely postponed, and suspicion is thrown upon
the integrity Of the whole structure The dam
ought to have been finished. and might have
been finished year or two ago. He would be
rash who should prOphesy that 1t will be fin
ished within the next half dozen years or that
the whole structure will not go down In ruin as
soon as the full pressure of a spring food comes
upon 1t. For such delay and for such lack of
confidence this city is paying it's commissioners
$4,000 year apiece, and seems in a way to nav
them that salary for the rest Of their valuable
livesl

SLAVS IN AMERICA.

A letter from our contemporary the "Glas
Naroda," or "Slovenic Gazette" Of this city,
taking exception to some recent remarks in
these columns, reads as follows:
We beg 10 state that in generally we are salts

gard OF the Slovanian people you are not up to

Canada are living about 20 millions of Slavs

gentle people. without doubt The Tribune will

We have no desire TO minimize either the
numbers or the importance of the Slav race In
America, but in view of authoritative statistics
we cannot agree with what seems to US the
greatly exaggerated estimate made by our con-
temporary. In 1900 according to the census,
the total foreign born population Of Canada was
less than 650000, and of the United States only
10,460,0S5. With a total of about II 10000 for

it, so women have one source of comfort
ahead of them.
Even evening gowns are a bit shorter
than they were, but still have the train.
Evening dresses, however, are more elab-
crate than ever, and new trimmings are
being fairly heaped on them. When a
gown is seen that seems simple in make

United States Senator John G.. Spoon
er, of Madison, was reelected by the
Wisconsin Legislature Wednesday, re-
ceiving the unanimous vote of the Re
publican members of the body. The
Democratic members, who constitute
one-ffth of the members of the Legisla-
,ture, voted for Neal Brown, of Wausau.
Senator Spooner was presented to the
Legislature after his election and made
a speech of acceptance. A petition was
introduced from the Ministerial Associa-
ton of West Superior asking for re-
peal of the present marriage license law
or amending it so as to remove the five
day wait between the granting of the
license and the marriage. The object of
the proposed legislation is to stop the
present flow of Wisconsin couples TO
Duluth and the Twin Cities, and thus
save the marriage fees to the ministers
of Wisconsin.

A novel notion is to trim sealskin With
bands of stitched cloth or velvet.
Exquisite gowns are made of white
panne with incrustations of black chan
lilly on skirt and bodice.
There is a decided preference for plain
tulle wells in brown, blue and white, al
ways crossing at the back and tying in a
bow in front
Very smart women are wearing wide
ribbon bows beneath the chin and some
of velvet which is always pretty, mixed
with lace or tulle.
Brocsded silk mixed with gold threads
is also used for incrustations on velvet
gowns and finished around with the silk
cord, which is very often pure white.
The stocks in scarlet and white now On
view in the shops are strikingly beauti-
full, all sorts and varieties of fancy neck
wear being included in this collection.
The new Byzantine and blonde laces,
fashioned in entire waists, are very hand
some with plain velvet or silk skirts, and
such a get-up is as suitable for opera as
for theater.
The use of white satin, fur, gold braid,
faces ana RUSSIAN gulpure medalll0nS is
again the feature of cloth and velvet
gowns and handsome coats of various
kinds for afternoon calls, receptions and
matinees.
Plaid belts with buckles of kayserzinn
are among the novelties. The fancy for
plaid also extends to stocks, some of
which are composed entirely of the plaid
ed materials in bright or subdued color
ings others ere of plain color edged with
n band of plaid.
In lawn and nainsook embroideries
there are some noteworthy departures.
There are some interesting applique gal
looms in broderie Anglaise effects in ecru
and white. There are some excellent de-
signs in blind and open work, which de-
serve attention. The open work is gen
orally in imitation of the old English
embroidery.
In hats anything that is fat seems to
be the thing. The material which may
be used is practically without limit.
Broad brimmed hats are certainly having
it all their own way. White. furry hats,

ued, apparently. Canvas is abundant
among the spring goods, and is very
attractive weave for warm spring days
because of its light weight. Wool hop
sacking is another goods that will be very
pretty in street dresses Most waists
have decided blouse effect, some of the
blousing being too pronounced except for
very slight women. Sleeves are still to
be very full at the bottom, and often are
entirely of chiffon even in heavy wool
dresses. The top part of such sleeve
is of the tucked chiffon, the lower part
pl ain, very full and dropping over the
hand a little, though not quite so exag-
gerated in this feature as sleeves were
few months ago.
All winter long women have seen COM
binations of blues and green's that by the
color standards of some seasons would
have been considered as fairly shrieking
at each other. But these matings have
been so many that they are no longer
thought of except as expressions of new
stylishness, and now there is promise of
their employment in spring fashions
They will appear chiefly with new dull
green that is little brighter than n sage

branches of the Legislature, took decid-
ed stand against the Dietrich land leas-

braska Senator in Congress, giving to
each person the privilege of leasing
twenty sections of land for grazing pur-
poses. He said he was opposed to the
bill as it is. 'It gives too much land to
each person" he said, ''and it does not
fix any definite price to be paid for the
use of the land. l am in favor of cut
ting down the amount to be allowed each
