"Let us pause awhile and study the
contemporaneous phenomenon OF the
editor. There are, at lowest calcula-
ton, 100000 of him in this country;
therefore, he is worthy of remark. He
is not a flower of a single night, but
an evolution. Like Topsy, he has
'jist growed.
'The more we think OF it, the more
we are convinced that the editor is
one of the most marvellous OF created
things. He is omniScient and omnlv-
orous He knows everything and
exudes information on every hand
What family tangles has he not adj
Indicated, and what perplexities OF
mind has he not solved? What would

and accumulated lore does Ed. Turk =?
1t is remarkable, when you come to
think of it,
Illuminate on the marvellous sagac-
ity displayed by the editor in public
questions. For years he has been saw
ing the nation, and no man can say
that the nation has been lost, al
though occasionally it has been mis-
laid. Why, nineteen billions Of words
were written about the Wilmot pro-
yiso alone, and still the editor is with
us. The phoenix is dangerously COM
bustible compared with him.
Editors work under the pail of
anonymity, and their influence carries
with it no faint of personality. They
walk along the street, and only the
few recognize them. Editors pay
their fares on street cars, and the very
conductors are unimpressed. Editors
mix with the ordinary run ofhumanity,
and, considering all things, bear them
selves with strange humility. 1t is
well to dwell upon these things, other
wise familiarity might breed con-
tempt"

of precinct detectives, raided small Office
on the second floor OF building at 45
Broadway. Williamsburg. yesterday after
noon and in no doing broke up the source
OF information concerning the races upon
which seventy-three poolrooms depended.
There were only four men in the place
when the captain and his detectives en-
tered, and these. the captain says. were
busy telephoniAg 10 different poolrooms
the result Of the fifth race at Gravesend
The four men were taken to the Bedford
avenue station and locked up. They gave
their names as Joseph Farrell, William
Kramer William Harvey and William West
Along with the men the captain took
half q dozen telephones, racing sheets
showing the names Of the horses and the
odds that had been posted and also type
written list on which were the telephone
numbers and addresses of seventy-three
poolrooms with whom the place had been
doing business during the day.
Sixty Of these, the Captain says. are in
Brooklyn, while the remainder are in Har-
lem and Manhattan. Farrell, Capt. Dooley
says, admitted TO him that he was the pro-
prietor of tho place and protested against
him and the othsr men being arreetsd. He
pointed out the fact that they furnished
information to poolrooms. acting as a dis
tributins agency but did not take bets
themselves. Therefore he could see no
reason for his heing arrested.
Capt Dooley however. said that he
thought that matter to be decided by a
Magistrate, and whether or not they were
doing a legitimate business themselves.
they we're supplying others with informa-
tion enabling them to violate the laws.
When tho Captain entered, he says, Far
rell and the others Immediately recog-
nixed him and his men, knowing full we'll
why they were there. But at the same
time they continued telephoning the re-
suits of the f'fth race at Gravesend. The
Captain conhscated the telephones as soon
al they had finished, thus depriving seventy
three poolrooms Of the results of the last
two races.
The four prisoners were admitted to
bail by Magistrate Higginbotham, before
whom they will be arraigned in the Lee
avenue police court this morning.
The list Of seventy-three subscribers
and their telephone calls was forwarded
TO Police Headquarters and will, no doubt
furnish Commissioner Greene with pretty
good idea Of whether poolrooms have been
suppressed or not, 1t may also result in
a few captains getting into trouble, not to
speak Of inspectors
