In 1851 he engaged on the Humboldt, of the New

CITY PHONE CUT OUT.
Shat off at Queens Coroner's Office
Bill Not Paid.

Because the city has not paid its bills to the
Sew-York and New-Jersey Telephone Company.
ne latter yesterday cut out the service from the
oroners Office, in Queens. Coroner Ruoff was
usng the telephone in the Office at noon, talking
% one Of the coroner's physicians on business.
ghen Jamaica central broke in on him and in
.0rmed him that orders had been given to dis
,onnect the instrument at noon. and that the
eaperintendent's orders were about to be obeyed
Before the coroner could collect his senses after
lis announcement, the telephone was dead and
70 amount Of effort would bring Central to
answer.
A messenger was sent TO the telephone COM
Bany with authorization to enter into some ar
zngement by which the service could be patched
ID pending the settlement of the dispute be-
keen the city and the company. but this effort
allied Coroner Ruoh says he does not know the
nason why the bill has not been paid. 1t is
said that $50 was claimed by the company.
and some OF this is said to have been a balance
rom the days Of the old coroners. An effort to
lcertain where the money was to come from to
pay the bill indicates that the corOner's APP
,ropriation is about used up or reserved for
sxed expenses, and that to raise money to pay
he telephone bill it will be needfuI to have
some other department in Queens transfer
money from its unexpended balance to the cor
mer's appropriation. Few If any departments
N Queens enjoy the luxury Of unexpended bal
nces.
Coroner Ruoff. in discussing the affair last
light. said:
This action in cutting out our telephone ties up
smpletely If we needed now in any part OF
Ae borough away from Jamaica how are we to be
allied? From o'clock in the morning until . in
ne afternoon not much delay will result, Police

aere but the telegraph operators taking the re-
WFts and they cannot leave their posts to notify
Is They might get the local precinct 10 notify US

The Independent" on Vandalism IN New-Hamp-

the smaIlness of the crop meant utter lack of

of those priceless forests. 1 hope your influential
voice will be steadily and persistently raised in
behalf of saving these treasures OF nature until
this benefcent end is secured. Very respectfully,

NO good can come from such public statement
one would think, to read it's concluding paragraphs
that 1t was impossible to succeed in public bust

Is the case quite so hopeless and does our ex-

after in imitation of this pioneer. The Trib-
une cordially welcomes all cOlaborers in the
field; but, without wishing to deprecate in the
least the work OF others, thinks it its duty to
remind readers that the Tribune Fresh Air Fund
is, so far as known, the only one in which alb
solutely every dollar contributed by the public
goes directly to the work of sending a poor
child to the country, keeping him there for two
weeks and bringing him back again. Every So
insures such vacation to at least one child
There have been years in which, owing to the
magnitude of the operations of the Tribune
Fresh Air Fund, such a result insured by

and all collections made for it are purely vol
untary. All expenses for organization, agents
and the general machinery of the charity are
privately betrayed by The Tribune itself and by

centages TO collectors to come out of the
tributons of the public. and payments to

dollar goes straight to the benefit of a child
