A negro In charge OF n spirited young

Vesey streets the other day that passersby
attracted by the plnuging and g arinEo Of the

the negro. we do that way with all of them

THOSE chappies and cha nesses who are

men over women. and contrariwise," re-
marked a damsel peach at an uptown restau-
rant last night. haven't real sense. We
women can't be beat. Look around this
room. See that blond lady at the table
on the right? Every two seconds she yanks
a powder rag from her pocket satchel and
right before her host dabs hernosea and face .
Look at hat woman in the cornerl She
is doing the same act. I've seen a thousand
women in New York, in all of our p~rettiest
spots. do the same. S~uperiority OF women ?
Well, certainly! The assurance of that
powder dabbing act establishes It. What
man of your acquaintance or mine would
nave the nerve to hoist out a razor and
shaving soap from his waistcoat pocket

Honey"
One Of the commissioners OF the Lewis
and Clark Exposition of Portland, Ore,
recently visited New York for the purpose
Of studying the park system of this city.
Il have only one criticism to offer" he
said after careful inspection. You have
not availed of one of your finest opportuni-
ties. You ought to lave a waterfall down
the face of the splendid cliff in Morningside
Park. 1t need not be a very expensive one.

dred per cent. to the beauty and attractive

drained by a system of pipes, so there need
be no waste. In fact the water could be

it now lacks. 1t would also help to cool and
purify the air and make the park more re-

Look at that warlike old frigate with
gun ports, said a woman On a Staten Island
car, pointing out to her friend a vessel
lying in the Kills off the standard Oil do ks
beg pardon, " said an old sailor from Snug
uorhNr yrho hol nyerbnarH tho rapnarl.
They're not gun ports, they're Just make
believes. That old tub trades along the
Malay Straits, and the port are PAINTED on,
that e all. The gunboatsthat hunted pirates
in them waters used to be fitted out that
way, and some captain thought that it would
be a good idea to paint up his boat to look
like a warship. It worked, and other
sailors did the same. And the pirates let
'em alone. too.
THE first time I went to sea it was on
one of them make believe gunboats. We
sailed the same day as another merchant
man that wasn't so decorated. When ] got
back | read that that vessel was boarded
by pirates four days out OF Singapore and
every man aboard except one was MUIR
dered. The Straits are pretty we'll guarded
now, and painted port holes amt necessary,
but some captains keep up the custom, /
guess, for old times sake
These New York chaps are all right
when it comes to spending their money"
remarked a singer. THE other night
one of them took me to a telephone. He
called up a Chicago friend.
~ want you to hear this little girl sing
4Dearie." said he.
Il sang it all right for his Chicago friend,
but his telephone bill was exactly eight
plunks."
There was a time" said a Broadway
photographer, when l stuck my finest
pictures in the window without regard
for the feelings of the models. 1t never
occurred to me that anybody could possibly
take offence at being thus advertised as
a good locker 1t seems, however, that
many people are sensitive on that point.
There are three fine pictures in my window
