zELAYA'S SON is FORGIVEN

NEW YORK, Aug 24-Alfonso Zelaya,
son of the president OF Nicaragua, who be-
came estranged from his father because of
his marriage to Miss Stella Baker OF Wash
ington, daughter of a government clerk.
has arrived here with his bride enroute
to his home in Nicaragua. There has been
a reconciliation between father and son.
The Nicaraguan chief of state has forgiven
the prodigal and has asked him to come
home. So on Tuesday he will sail with his
wife for Nicaragua by way OF Panama.
The romance of young Zelaya and Miss
Baker brought them n great deal Of no
toriety. Zelaya, who bad been cadet at
West Point, did not like the rigorous dlsci-
pline there and quit. He went to Wash
ington, met and fell in love with Miss
Baker, and arrangements were progressing
for their wedding when the prospective
bridegroom was kidnapped by supposed
agents of his father. He was taken as far
as New Orleans, where he regained his
freedom. He returned forthwith to Wash
ington and made Miss Baker his Wife
Parental wrath and the cutting Off Of his
allowance followed, and the son OF the most

lea was forced to earn a living.

COST OF POLICING DUBLIN
Amount Practically Double that Paid
I'm Various Other Places in
England.

DUBLIN, Aug. A.-(Special)-A return
has been Issued TO the members of the
Dublin corporation by Mr.. Edmund w.
Frye, city treasurer, regarding the COM
paratlve cost of tho policing of Dublin and
the various other cities in England and
Wales The return is a most instructive,
not to say startling, one. 1t would appear
that Dublin practically pays double the
average cost of policing any OF the English
cities. In Dublin the police are a special
department, controlled by a commissioner,
constituted under a special act of
Parliamental, by which provision is
made for taxing the citizens for their
maintenance at the rate of Sd In the pound
on the the valuation of the city. The re-
suit has proved that, though crime Is d.
mlnishing in Dublin, Notwithstanding It's
growing population, the cost of policing has
grown with the increase In the valuation
OF the city, until the financial imposition on
the city has becos'e monstrous. For In
stance, the valuation of the metropolitan
area Of Dublin In 1850 was e645,00O; the val
uation for the year 1866 was f1, 1,345,O 900.
The result Of this increase in the valuation
OF the city has been that the cost OF the
police in Dublin has grown up from f71,C0O
in 1850 to f16O,s5O in 1866. The strength
OF the force practically remains the same.
The Dublin force in 1850 was 1,137, and in
1866 1t was 1,194. The cost of maintain
ing the police force was, therefore, In
creased, in flrty-ive years. from e71,9OC
to e16O,95O. Dublin is generally known as
one of the most peaceable cities in the
three Kingdoms. In 1870 the number of in
dlctable offenses was 5,1S6; in 1866 the
number fell to 1926. The number of sum-
mary convictions In 1870 was 47,310, and
this showed great falling Off in 1866, the
