BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

1 Miss Julia Byron of Bank stree
 is visiting in New York.
 A horse fell this morning at tht
 corner of Bank and South Riverside
 streets.
 The meeting of the Moral cl,il
 scheduled for last evening was post
 poned until Sunday.
 --The Misses Mary Boyle and Eliz.
 abeth Falcon are on two weeks va.
 cation to New Jersey.
 Special services were conducted
 this morning at St Patrick's church for the children who have been mak- ing the mission. Last evening the
 church had an immense crowd both
 up and down stairs.
 --Workmen are still engaged in the ] grading of Porter street and the job
 does not seem to go along very quick
 ly. When everything is finished the street will have q grade that will be
 almost ten per cent. Teamsters will find it rather difficult to ascend it and in all probability it will be used very
 little. The value of the property on this thoroughfare will be lessened
 considerably by the work now going
 on.
 1t was up to Brooklyn man to show up some of those "get rich quick schemes and Druggist Walker should be given credit for fighting his case and winning it in the courts. Numerous of these film fam games, for they are nothing else, are worked every day in the week and the suck
 CTS" generally get very little redress. The test case made in this city show ed that the company could not bunco
 Walker, who should feel elated over his victory.
 A large attendance was present at the entertainment given in the lec- ture room of the Third Congregational church last evening under the aus pices of the, ladies of the parish. Miss Hazel Treat. Miss Florence Webster and Harry Hampson contributed in- teresting numbers. A sketch in which George Deleyeleuse, Burton Benson, Edna Reynolds and Clementina Jack son participated, was warmly receiv- ed. Miss Bernice Thompson acted as accompanist.
 -"Barney'' Doherty, the we'll known polo player is home for the summer and is stopping with his father-in-law on South Leonard street. Barney has been playing in the western league and he says that the majority of the teams have had successful season. He is in hopes that the game will be revived in the east and asserts that a goOdly number of the players think that the sport will soon be popular again in this part of the country. The sturdy half back is looking well and judging from his appearance the air of the west has agreed with him.
 All aboard for Hartford! Go to the station at the west end at S:32 all you who are going to Hartford to- morrow morning. That's the time and that's the place where the delegation from Brooklyn will meet to go to the capital and present their facts to the commissioners. It looks as though a goodly number would go from this section and under the lead ership of Attorney James Lynch it will tell the commissioners few things about trolley affairs in this city. The committee from this sec ton will also bring up several other matters at the hearing if it gets a chance. The commissioners will be asked to come to this city and view the condition of affairs in Brooklyn. They will endeavor to persuade the to come to look over the land near the new union station site in order for them to see how necessary it is that a viaduct should l be built from the foot of Grand street | 10 the middle of North Riverside | street. This is of even more impOr- tance than trolley line as something must be accomplished at once before | the Consolidated road gets started on its freight yard. The trolley if not | now, may be later, while if l -he viaduct is not soon commenced it l Is not likely to be at any other time. There are other improvements which | -he Brooklyn people will petition for md as they have some telling argu- nents they are sure to make a good showing.
 Medicine buying Is different from he buying of other goods-yonr health depends upon what you purchase. You get what you ask for in its best quail. ' at our store. A. c. Walker, the druggist.
