Surprised BY Negro Wedding.

A negro wedding was held the
other night in Holy Trinity Protes-
tant Episcopal Church, the largest
and most prominent in Harlem. 1t
was that of Albert Eldridge, clerk
in the postoffce, and Anna Wanser.
Few of the white members of the
congregation, it is said, knew of the
event. The church was we'll filled
with colored people, the wife and
daughter of the rector, Rev. Harry
Pierce Nichols, being the only white
people present. A number of negroes
are regular attendants at services in
the church, and baptisms of negro
children are frequent occurrences.
The rector is a member of one of
the educational boards, which works
among the Southern negroes.

Some Of the Things Done Daily in theI
Metropolis.

when is an egg not an egg, and
why?" Mrs. Simon Sterne asked
President Roosevelt.
Since then Collector of the Port
Stranahan; Colonel Fowler, Apprais-
er of the Port, and numerous Gus
toms officers have been trying to
solve the riddle.
The answer is, when the egg is
broken" but the answer has been
lost in thousands of yards of red
tape.
Mrs. Sterne, widow of the disting-
uished lawyer, and aunt of former
State Senator Elsberg, lives at 40
West Fifty-ninth Street. A friend
in Germany sent Mrs, Sterne choco-,
late Easter egg which came here by
express, or packed in package" as
the customs officers say pathological
ly. After the egg had been search
ad' at the Appraisers stores to
make sure is contained no Struggled
meat, it was sent to Mrs. Sterne with
the announcement that it had ar
rived here "broke."
Mrs. Sterne, of course, cared moth
ing about the value of the choco-
late egg, a few cents at most, but
it was a gift-a kind remembrance
of her. She could not understand
how the egg, reposing in little nest
of soft paper, could have been brok-
en- in transit. So she wrote a very
polite note to Mr.. Roosevelt.
The President passed the question
along to the Treasury Departments
and the end is not yet.
Little Marie Stedman's parents are
very poor, and a piece of Bread and
butter spread over with sugar was
such delicious dainty to the child
that she gave up her life for 1T.
Marie's mother was washing in the
kitchen of their home on the second
floor of SIT West Twenty eighth
Street, when the 4-year-old girl tod
died in from play.
''I'Ze awful hungry, mamma, she
said. please dimme piece O. bread
For a treat to the baby, who had
been good and hadn't bothered her
all day long, Mrs. Stedman spread
the bread with butter from the scanty
store and then coated the morsel with
sugar. "Now run out and sit on the
steps till papa comes" she said, and
the child battered down to the porch
with the sweet bread in her hand.
But the father was long in coming
and Marie ran to Mullins stables
next door to see the horses drink
from the deep watering trough. She
sat on the edge, munching the SUI
CARED bread, until suddenly she drop
ped it, The child leaned, lost her
balance and fell into the water.
Jacob Quanderer, driver, dragged
the body out five minutes afterward.
She had regained the little remnant
of her feast and held it tightly in her
hands, but she was dead.

FIRE WAS ABOVE THEM.
Six Hundred Men Working Under
Ground Have Narrow Escape.

New York, April 3-Fire caused by a
spark from one of the boiler rooms in
the excavation for the McAdoo tunnel
terminal at Dey, Fulton and Church
streets early today did damage estimat-
ed at $4,000 and a delay of 80 days in
the completion of the work of the huge
terminal buildings will result. Five men
were injured during the progress of the
fire by being caught in one of the deep
caiSsons, two of them so severely that it.
was necessary to take them to a hos
pital. Those severely injured are: John
OHara and Edward Murphy, tunnel
workers.
The fire started on high wooden.
structure between Dey and Fulton
streets and used to support a hosting
engine. By the time the fire depart
ment reached the scene the shower of
sparks and embers from the burning
boiler house had set fire to dozen 9TH
er boiler houses and similar structures
in the excavation. These together with
several big derricks were badly burned
and the temporary wooden flooring over
the surface of Dey street covering the
excavation was ruined.
There were many thrilling rescues and
several instances of personal bravery
during the progress of the fire. Deep
down under the ground in the 100 and
more caiSsOnS which are being sunk for
the foundations of the big terminal
buildings to rest upon were between 500
and 600 men at work. When it was
seen that there was danger of the fire
spreading to all of the engine, houses
south, of Dey street, shutting off the
supply of air pressure, which enabled
the men to work under ground and the
withdrawal of which would mean ser
ious danger if not death to many of
them, the danger signal was given and
the buckets lowered into the cafssons to
bring the tunnel workers to the surface.
Around some of the derrickS used to
lower and hoist the buckets the
flames ragged fiercely and in two in
stances the men in charge OF the
donkey hosting engines lost their nerve
and deserted their posts, leaving the
men eighty feet beneath the surface Of
the ground to their fate. The deserted
hoistS were quickly renamed by volun-
teers, however, and the new men stuck
to their posts with the flames roaring
around them until the last one of the
tunnel workers was brought to safety. |

LEGISLATIVE PRINTING BILL.
McNeaI Figures That State Saved
$13,9SO During Last Quarter.

T. A. McNeal has figured up the
profits of the state printing plant for the
last quarter, and finds that the saving
during the quarter over the old system
was $13.980. These figures include the
legislative printing, which always
makes this quarter the heaviest of the
entire biennial period.
Two years ago the total cost of the
same amount of printing done this year
would have been, under the contract
plan, $30,974. Instead it was $16,994. The
printing exclusively for the legislature
cost the state $4,741. Under the old sys-
tenn it would have cost $12, 466. This
does not include the cost of the session
laws.
The amount of work done for the leg
islature shows that the lawmakers had
an immense amount of printing done.
In technical language it aggregates 49,
900, 900 ems. The average number of
employees during the quarter was sixty
nine. The printing and binding mater
ials used amounted to $3,S25.25. One of
the items was the printing of the bien-.
NAL report of Secretary Coburn of the
department Of agriculture. 1t had 1900
pages, while the one two years ago had
but 1000. The state printer has had
