LOR AGAINST AUTONOMY BILL.

Ex-Mayor Seth Low has addressed 10

Senate Committee on Cties this letter.
dated March 49, which explains itself.
In view Of the radical change pro-
posed to be made In the Greater New York

by Senator Gardner, It seemed wise for
a conference to be held to discuss thi,
measure Of members Of the commission

pointment Of all the deputies In the various

into effect.
AS we we're together we discussed two
other measures that are now pending before
the Legislature. The first is the measure
proposing to make the Borough of The Bronx
new county. In both Of the commissions
Il was the aim TO concentrate into the city
government all the functions Of each county
that could be oonstitutionally lodged in
officials Of the city. We all feel that 10
OF New York would be distinct step in
the wrong direction. The third bill dis
cussed was that proposing 10 extend the

Scottish minister did in similar cir

his home while the congregation sung
Psalm 119. No, he must preach ex-
tempore, and did so, taking for his
theme the existence of God. Very
well satisfied he felt with his effort.

VANITY WENT WITH GREATNESS,
PecuIiarltIes of Famous Men In Self
Adornment.

In telling of the various means OF
self-advertisement adopted by certain
authors, a critic says that Alexander
Dumas, the elder, delighted to appear
in the uniform of the national guard
of France, with medals pinned to his
breast, though II is doubtful whether
his motive was anything deeper than
a vain, childish delight in gauds. "Ha
was the sort of man." one of his en-
emies once remarked, who was ca
pable OF riding behind his own car
riage In order to prove that he kept
a negro in his service" A certaiL
literary person once appeared III the
stalls OF London theater wearing a
jeweled brooch in his long hair; but
he was anticipated in this respect by
Theophile Gautier, whose many-color
ed waistcoat was always the most
conspicuous object in any theater
which he entered, and even by Dis
raeli, with his rings outside his gloves.
and his green trousers. 1t is said that
M. Paul Bourget also wore green
trousers when he was a denizen of the
Latin quarter; but that was in the
days of poverty and early struggles,
and perhapse he had no others.
