BATHROOM FURNISHINGS.
Fittings Sould Be Very Simple and

Simplicity is the keynote of the up-to-

fittings the easier it is to detect the first
signs of dirt.
The cost of many of the articles that
go toward the equipment of a irst-class
bathroom leaves little or no excuse for
the retention of obsolete fixtures. Fifty

ONE KILLED AND MANY HURT,
Wreck on the Erie Railroad East of
Paterson. y. J.-Five Cars Went
Down Embnnkmcnt.

Paterson, N. j.. Feb. 21.-An east.
bound way-train on the Erie railroad
jumped the track three miles east of
here Monday. One girl, Miss Grace
Matthews, of Sufferin, N. Y, was killed
and A people were injured.
In response to a telephone message
sent to Paterson, a special train with
physicians and nurses started for the
scene of the accident.
Five cars were ditched, and some of
them are said to have rolled down an
embankment. The long train was
known as the Middletown flyer, and
was coming from Middletown to Jer-
sey City. The accident happened be-
tween Fairlawn and Warren Point, on
the Bergen county branch.
The train carried $50 passengers,
most of them commuters bound to
New York for the DAYS business.

The Three ornered Hats.

The prettiest hats for all occasions
now are the Continental hats and, in
the name of Continental, a great deal is
done that was lever done before. The
tri-corne hats are easily made. One can
take ones wide-brimmed hat of last
year and turn it up on two sides SO as
to make a three-pointed hat. And this
is a trick that is being worked every
day. The under side of the brim is
faced with black velvet and a bunch OF
ream roses is allowed to nestle in the
brim somewhere in n Of its three hid.
ing places.
They take hats and turn up one side
very sharply. This makes a military
hat Of the very newest shape and the
sharp turning up is accumulated by the
trimming.

foolish precepts and fossil and anti3
|quated laws.
A complete annulment of the sp-
praisement was Of paramount neces-
|sity.
ANY other course was as we have said,
an insult and disregard of obligatory
functions placed on those in power,
compelling them to defend what is
lindefensible, and discreditjng the or
ganiza ton and causing it to fall into
the same unpopularity into which all
the official organisms and bure eaucratlc
dependencies have fallen.
The Board of Equalization and Re-
view is one more corpse to be consig-
ned, without obsequies, to the govern
|ment grave yard.
The charitable announcements of
the press do not induce the property
owners to explain their claims.
Private and extra Gcisl notices do
not carry weight with any body.
The exactitude and correctness OF
edicts is dependent on the accuracy Of
TYPE settlers, whose possible errors
may remain undetected on account OF
the rapidity with which a paper has
to be gotten out.
Every day the necessity for the "Of-
fcial Gazette illegally suppressed,
becomes more evident. Because in
cases like the present. the taxpayers
cannot trust to the daily papers in or.
order to get necessary Information and
official announcements and orders in
the same form in which they are is
sued from authoritative spheres; they
cannot even 60 to the aquillene and
hired journals in order to get this in
formation, because obtained from this
source, it is generally gideonic. With
all the papers, the subject matter IS
apt to be too extensive to be trans
cribed literally.
All that we have said may not &C
count for the failure of the Board; but
it certainly is factor.
The causes given. added to the fact
that members of the congregation
compose majority Of the Board, may
be the cause of the mentable effect
which confronts us today.
The indifference of the tax payers
and the attitude that they have adop-
ted should occasion neither wonder
nor surprise to any one. 49,
When tho government proceeds
with seriousness and abandons the
foolish policy of equilibrium and dissi-
mutation, when the Secretary's office
ceases to be the guide for all the acts
of the bureaucracy, then will not be
required those noisy chimes with which
the congregation insist: on invoking to
it's truculent ceremonies public that
has completely lost faith in Tedemptio-
nism on account of cruel and painful
deceptions.

The property owners have not seen
fit to pay any attention to the insincere
invitations which at the last hour the
Board of Review and Equalization has
extended; they are tired OF being
made cats paws of and subjected to
mockcry.
The most serious things embraced
| in the new methods lose their gravity
and impor tance and convert thersel-
yes into children's toys, which trlfiing
INSPIRES neither admiration nor sur
prise.
I For the purpose of listening to the
protests of the property owners, the
Board of Review and Equalization
met, after an announcement which
produced a natural hope in the minds
of the proprietors and stopped them
from going to the Courts.
The Board will probably finish its
|sessions today, and the property ow-
ners are in very much the same po
sition that they were in the beginn-
ing. :,
In this Board, as is the case with
|all government Boards, the ma
iority of the members is COM
posed of con ontinentals. That is suf
licient to account for the complete fai-
lure of its labors, which, under the
circumstances. is altogether natural,
nor is it singular that to its latest an
nouncement-which thaaks to the ge-
lnerosity of the daily papers has served
as notice to the proprietors-the pro-
perty owners, who from former expe
| riences have lost all faith, have not
| fastened to formulate their complaints
and present them before those who
consider them exaggerated and unre
aSons BILE.
The reunion of the Board is an act
of marked hostility to the property
owners.
If we examine the matter carefully,
it becomes evident that its meeting is
an affront practically an insult. 1t is
placing the proprietors virtually IN the
same category with the assessor who
caused all the confusion; it is the same
as telling the taxpayers that the
opinion of an inebriate is, in the view
of the government, worth IS much as
that OF all the owners OF property IN
San Juan and in the whole Island.
For this reason the reunion OF the
Board has been a failure; for this
reason the majority of ifx claimants
| have not attended the sessions which
have been held, for this reason very
few have paid any attention to the
insincere promises which pretended to
speak of equity and justice.
No. Ali efforts along these lines
have failed to bring abut the desired
end. That which would have been
legal and Just, honest and fair, the
Government did not see fit to do, in
