conducts an orchestra OF thirty men at the
Plaza during tea and dinner. is worth
$4,000 a year to the management. Louis
Sherry, in order to keep abreast with the
times. has discarded his red-iacketed
Venetian musicians and will import for
next season the orchestra from the imperisl
palace In Vienna. This will bring his bill
for music to a good $4,000. At the Hotel
Knickerbocker and the Hotel Astor the ex-
penses for music are equally large. AT the
st. Regis, the Hotel Belmont, the Hotel
Manhattan, cafe Martin, the Netherlands,

One Of the oldest business enterprises in
New York Is probably the renting Of UNI
brellas. But there is a new phase of It
uptown. Scores Of children who live near
the lines of the subway and elevated road
in the upper West Side make pooket-money
on rainy days by waiting around the sta
lions and hiring out their umbrellas to
people who have been CARELESS In leaving
their own at home. So general has this
business become that many downtown
workers no longer spend much time in
worrying over the necessity of aking an
umbrella to the office with them. They
know that II they can reach a downtown
station of the subway or elevated in or
binary comfort, once they reach their home
station they will be able to get a rain
cover for whatever they choose to'pay.
A regularity of the business is that there
is no fixed scale of prices. The youngsters
are content to take what they can get, 5 or
10 cents, generally. They walk along beside
their customer and leave him at his door,
dry. One of the boys, in the rainy weather
Of last week, made nearly 81 a day.

The Paragraph Pulpit
Unitarian
The New Motive In Relation,

In the past the chief motive in relig-
ion has evidently been to escape the
punishment of evil. Devil-dodging has
been the all-important art. But today
new motive is asserting itself with
growing force. 1t is being good and
doing good for goods sake. The
thought Of future reward is no longer
the mean motive for righteousness. 1t
is enough to have the joy of the doing.
Do good, because it is better to do
good than evil. Help others, because
it is better than hurting them. Be
pure and unselfish and loving, not be-
canse you fear hell, but because it is
better than being impure and selfish
and unloving.

into the evening. The chief factor in
the cases yesterday was rum, and that
it brought the usual amount of trouble
to those concerned in the handling of
it is shown by the details given below.
The first case was that Of Martin
Johnson. Martin had been drinking
rum and was taken in on a charge of
intoxication. The court found little
difficulty in substantiating the charge
and handed the respondent fine of
81 and costs, which was paid.
The second case was that of Charles
Secley, who was arraigned on charge
of single sale. Mr.. Seeley pleaded not
guilty, but probable cause was found
by the court to hold him guilty and he
was fined 500 and costs and 80 days
in Jail, from which an appeal was tax

charge of search and seizure. She was
represented by w. H. Fisher and was
prepared to fight the case, but was
taken with a fainting spell, whereupon
her counsel waived examination and a
fine of 500 and costs and 60 days in
Jail was imposed. with an additional
sentence of 60 days in default of pay

When the officers entered the Nolan

Havman was arraigned before the
court last evening on charge Of IL
