ARRESTED FOR BEING CAPTAIN.
Gieltsmann Would Wear the Uniform After
His Onice Was Abolished.

Police Captain George Gleitsmann Of the
West New York, n. j., police department,
was arrested in the station house by Rounds
man John Bauer shortly before II o'clock
on Tuesday night and locked in a cell on a
charge Of ~impersonating a superior officer.
The order of arrest was issued by Mayor
Darling, who directed the roundsman to tax
into custody any person found wearing a
badge and uniform of q captain. Gleist-
mann knew What was coming, but that did
not deter him from walking into the station
house, dressing himself in his captains toys,
pinning on his badge and seating himself in
front of the desk where the roundsman
could get a good look at him.
Take of that uniform and turn in that
badge said Bauer. ITS the Mayors
orders"
an do nothing of the kind responded
Gleitsmann, IF you want the badge take
it of YOURSELF
Then I'll be obliged to arrest you.'
returned the roundsman.
III you do you'll have to lock me up, too
said the captain.
Bauer formally placed him under arrest.
He said hA would parole the captain for a
hearing, and Gleitsmann left the station.
He returned later with his uniform and
badge on, and this time the roundsman led
the captain to a cell and closed the door on
MN bleltSIlann remained III tIe Cooler
a few minutes until his brother-in-law, j. e..
Gerisch, gave bail for him..
One Of the first acts of the new admins
tra9on headed by Mayor Darling was to
make R~oundsman Bauer the acting chief
Of the department. Capt. Gleitsmann,
who had been promoted from sergeant in
the last days of the old administration,
was ordered to do duty as a patrolman
and to take orders from Roundsman Bauer.
He didn't take kindly to the new order of
things, He pounded the streets" for a
short time disguised as a captain, and then
orders and then appealed to the courts
for reinstatement. The council recently
adopted IN ordinance a%bolishing the office
Of captain.

OLD DOCTORS OLD BONES.
Two BoNruls Found in Old Elm Street We're
Used for Study.

A workman engaged in the renovation of
an old building at 122 Lafayette street,
formerly Elm discovered yesterday two small
chests tucked away under some old lumber.
In the chests were the skeletons OF three
children, the skull and hand Of an adult
and a big collection of loose bones.
Coroner Shrady dug up one of the oldest
inhabitants, who explained that the boxes
in all probability belonged to DR.. Morton,
who rented the room where they were found
in 1885 and who died a few years ago at the
age of 81.
A memorandum found in one of the boxes
bears the date 1868. The building is an old
three story brick structure that was erected
nearly a century ago as a distillery by
Ephraim Howe. DIR. Morton was a sort of
r~ecluse, who rented a loft in the building
ments. The adults skull had plainly been
used for experiment. 1t was sawed up just
as an expert anatomist cuts a skull.

TEACHING ELEVATED MOTORMEN
II. II. T. Has an instruction Car Which
Breaks I'm Two Men n Day.

A party of reporters took a trip to Coney
Island yesterday on the new instruction
car of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit. l b.
Clarke, supervisor Of motormen for the
elevated lines, was on hand with u class Of
half a dozen men, aspirants for the con-
troller handle on the high speed elevated
trains. This car was put into operation
two months ago, and is said to be the only
n Of it's kind in the country. 1t cost
SIS, 900. built at the company's shops in
East New York. and is fitted with every
device for illustra ting tho motors and auto
matte air brake sy stem in Use.
1t is the ambition of every surface car
motorman to sit in the little cab Of an ele-
waited train. But as these tra ius are run
much faster than the surfa CO cars, and are
equipped with air brakes which require
experience and judgment to handle, the
company insists upon putting the men
through a course of sprouts with an ex-
animation before giving them the coveted
Job. These men must have served five years,
with n first class record. before they are
admitted to Mr.. Clarke's class.
The class is nov turning out two expert
morormen a day and is coneidered q great
success by the oompany's officials.

NOR 4 FARM ron SOCIALISTS.
David l.. ROusseau's Home Near OssininB
Intended for the Use Of Ills Family.

OaAt W. AO y VI ~ vs.
A ~jocular remark by David l.. Rousseau,
the we'll known Socialist, to the effect that
II he were rich like j. q. Phelps Stokes
he would like to start a home for broken
down Socialists has led TO the report that
Mr.. Rousseau, who once entertained Mary
Elizabeth Lease in his house for several
months, had bought a farm on the outskirts
Of 0ssining for such a purpose.
Mr.. Rousseau has bought a place there,
consisting Of 100 acres, and on it there is a
house Of twenty-five rooms. He is now
living there, but he says that inasmuoh as
he has eleven children and several grand
children he thinks he has enough Of a Job
on hand to house his own family, not to
mention the vast army Of the saviors Of
the republic who are out Of work.
Besides being a Socialist for more than
forty years, Mr.. Rousseau also has been a
successful inventor and business man. He
has a factory and home in Mott Haven close
to the Central railroad tracks. He has
prospered, but now the railroad wants his
property, which lies in the march OF its
improvements. Being os years old, he
thought that a place in the country would
be a good idea, and 30 in December he
bought the Davis farm on the Croton Dam
road out OF Ossining and moved there.
1Ib uOuS6 thl1u oh q hIOll klNllk u
superb view Of the country for miles around.
There are forty acres Of woods on the place
and the rest Is under cultivation. There
are fruit trees in p~rofusion and a large
vineyard.
The house was built ifty-five years ago
by a DR.. Brown, an eccentric mar Of wealth
who used the place as q sort Of retreat and
who praotised his profession Of medicine
in the country round about without pay.
He decided the place to a Mrs. Laidlaw,
once known as a Iombs Angel. She thought
to do philanthropio work by starting o
school for boy waits from New York. The
school wa in existence for several years,
but the project did not bear the fruit ex-
peoted and ultimately the place passed into
the hands OF a family named Davis, from
whom Mr.. Rousseau purchased it for $12, 800.
Mr. Rousseau, although well to do, is not
rich enough to travel in the class Of saviors
of the republic and 30 was not invited to
the Hunter conference at Noroton last
week. Neither is he a magazine writer,
and he could not get in on that ground. He
figured for a time in Socialist politics in
this city and for a time was noted chiefly as
the promoter Of Mrs. Leases fortunes in
the East. Her son was his bookkeeper.
He is the inventor Of the block signal sys-
TENS used on all the great railroads Of the
United States, and he makes electrical
apparatus Of various kinds in his factory.

VERDpS REQUIEM ON TRIAL.
Case Against Heinrich COnried Heard In

the Special Sessions.
Herr Direktor Conried of the Metropoli-
tan Opera House was the principal witness
in the court Of Special Sessions yesterday
in the case Of the police against himself
for alleged violation Of the Sunday concert
laws by producing Verdi's Requiem Mass
on February II last. After Policeman
Lammon had testified that the performance
was given without costume, scenery or the
use of a curtain, Herr Conried took the
stand.
He was examined by his counsel, ex-Judge
Dittenhoefer, who asked if it were not
true hat Verdi's Requiem Mass Is often
performed in churches and on the most
solemn occasions, just as it was given in
the Metropolitan Opera House.
Yes replied the witness. only 1t is
sung much better in the opera house than
in the other places
fessional singers were not employed in
churches.
yes" replied Conried.
But there is no payment charged for adj
mission" objected Assistant District Attor-
ney krotel, who appeared for the prosecu-
ton.
Isn't the plate passed." retorted e1-
Judge D~ittenhoefer.
Il object, y said Mr.. krotel.
Conried's counsel then read to the Cour
a brief setting forth that his client had
violated none of the Sunday concert regula-
lions of the city Charter or of the Penal
Code.
Il agree with my learned opponent
declared the District Attorney, but think
the defendant may be amenable to the
law under the statute which prohibits any
one doing work on Sunday except such as
may be necessary or for charity"
MIR. Krotel said he wanted time to sub
init a brief, and the case was put over until
next Tuesday. Justice Deuel. presided.

BOSTON QUARTET AGAIN.
The Last Performance an Admirable One
Mime. SamRrOH Scores.

Nine. SaInaTOil ScoFCS'
The first indications that the musical
season in New York is drawing to an end
are to be found now On every hand. Mr..
Damrosch and his Symphony Orchestra
said their valedictory on Tuesday. Last
night the third and last concert Of the Bos-
ton Symphony Quartet was given in Men
delssohn Hall before an audience OF fair
size. MN. Hess, Roth, Ferir and Warnhe,
the members OF the quartet, had the as
sistance of Nine. Olga Samaroff, pianist,
and Andre Moquarre, futist.
The programme consisted of Rogers
serenade in d major for flute, violin and
viola; Richard Strauss's sonata for violin
and piano in f fat major and the Beethoven
quartet for two violins, viola and ~violoncello.
The Roger number, which was new to this
public, proved a very charming compost
ton, with hone OF the complicated mu-
steamship with which the name Of Roger
has been associated. The serenade relies
on no such means for its interest. In the
Strauss sonata Nine. Samarof distin-
guished herself by her playing and with
MIR. Hess made the performance admirable
in every detail.

"
traction With Sembrich and CarusO.
Flotow's opera, which has proved this
year the most potent attra ction that Mr..
Conried has offered his subscribers and the
public, was sung last night for the fou nth
time. Again there was ar audience that
crowded the theatre to the most remote
corner, and again there was the spontane-
GUS emf husiasm that accompanied the per-
Torrance from beginning to end.
There was no change in the cast, as Miss
Walker could sing in spite OF the fact that
she had put a B%rlnnhilde to her credit the
evening before. So Nine. Homer, who
was ready TO take her place in the quartet,
was not called into service. Nine. Sem
brioh sang THE Last Rose Of Summer
with an Incompatible beauty, Of legato and
a ravishing quality Of tone that compelled
a repetition. Mr.. Caruso was stormily
~applauded for M Appari, " and the audi
ence was scarcely satisfied with a single
hearing OF the quartets, to which NJ. Plancon
contributed his noble voice and his suave,
polished singing. The ensembles gained
nightly from his cooperation.

ret Potter, based on the life of a
famous Russian composer - the
sensitive, gifted son of a powerful,
iron-handed government despot.
His career is a strange and deeply

The novel follows the hero
into the high social and military
circles to which he was born;.
into musical society, to which his
art led him and into that Of
plotting revolutionists, where he
fell by chance. Each shifting

The business world is
measured by months, but the
domestic world is measured by
weeks. The manufacturer be-
gins anew every month. He
pays his bills monthly he
renders bills monthly; he takes
his trial balance monthly; he
measures his business by the
calendar month. The home
life, the life of the consumer, is
measured by weeks. There is
wash-day, ironing day, baking
day and shopping day, and the
regular weekly rest on Sunday.
The manufacturer who sells
goods should cater to the cal
endar of the consumer who
buys them. The weekly an
nouncement fits in logically
with the weekly shopping day.
This is just as true Of the
shopping of men as it is of
women. A man buys cigars
for over Sunday, b oks to read
over Sunday; he is apt to have
time about once a week, and
always once a week, to write
letters to advertisers. There
fore, a week is often enough to
reach him, and is not too often.
A weekly publication like

reaches its readers with argu-
ments for your goods just as

ENJOYMENT AS A VIRTUE.
The Doctrine of Human Happiness
as Opposed to Renun-
citation.

All pessimism, all asceticism, is
founded upon the existence of what
Tolstoy calls the '.illusory thirst for
enjoyment" Now, however, writes
Vernon Lee, in the North American
Review, numerous the cases where en-
joyment proves impossible or mis-
chievous, the continued existence Of
the human race shows that, SO times
out of a hundred neither the enjoy
ment nor the thirst for it is illusory,
but, on the contrary, genuine ad-
vantage, making subsequent enjoy
ment not less, but more, possible by
perfecting the sensibilities. The
healthy activity of the whole individu-
al, with it's inevitable hierarchy Of i'm
pulses, both secures pleasure and fore
stalls cloying, and by it's inclusion
of insubordination of others to these,
1t diminishes conflict with others quite
as effectually as does Tolstoy's Renun-
citation. And here let me say that
there is surely something mean in this
reciprocal remuneration, resulting in
the cessation of struggle and disap-
POAAIulCAI. 0uCu EcuuuCldllOQ is often
needful in our imperfect individual
case; our eye gives us trouble, and we
cast 1t from us. But such rough and
ready, such wasteful, destructive
methods are surely not admissible in
philosophy of life, in a counsel of per.
fection! The universal, as distin-
guished from the individual, rule for
greater happiness is not self-dimin-
ution but assimilation, expansion, the
non-ego becoming, in imagination and
feelings. an integral part Of the ego.
Asceticism breaches voluntary impoy.
