MARK FOR
~|NCEND|AR|ES; 100
LIVES IN DANGER
Roof of Tenement, Man Who
Vanished Owns, Was Soaked
with Oil.

NEW YORK, March 24.-In scanty
night attire, more than one hundred
persons living in a tenement at 334
East Sixty-third street fled to the
street early today when i~ncendiaries
made an attempt to burn the building.
More than two gallons of crude oil had
been poured on the roof and lighted.
The building is owned by James Sa-
ponary, a rich banker, who the police
say, disappeared several weeks ago,
and whose present whereabouts is I'M
known. The police say they believe
that some person, whose money Is tied
up. is responsible for the fire.
Policeman Barry forced the front
door and ran up the stairs, beating
on the doors of other apartments with
his nightstick as he ran and shouting
to the tenants.
Before Barry reached the roof nearly
every person in the house had been
aroused by the screams of the others.
Several Italians living on the lower
floors of the building started firing off
revolvers, two of the bullets just miss
ing the policeman as he tried to open
the roof door.
Barry turned in a still alarm to the
Sixty-seventh street fire house. and
then ordered the men and women to aid
him in trying to keep the flames in
check while waiting the arrival of the
f1remen. The fire was out by the time
the flremen arrived.
Saponary conducted a banking bust
ness at 39S East SiXty-third street until
G few weeks ago. He also had a branch
Office in Stanton street, and this was
also closed.

THE NEW HAVEN REPORT.

There is no need for the stockhold- CTS of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company falling in- to the dumps because of the presi- dents report. On the contrary there is reason to feel bully" over 1t.
 President Mellen admits that an eight per cent dividend was paid though only six was earned, but six per cent. Is pretty dividend to have earned on the capital stock of the company in view of the depressed times. Many another railroad would be delighted" to earn that in the live Hest times. Then, too, the valuation of the property, which reaches the 700, 900, 900 mark, ought to inspire the greatest amount of confidence.
 The fact Is that the company has weathered the storm nicely and from now on will continue to wax In strength. Let the mills and the fac- tories get to work again on full time and the road will make ten per cent. but not pay 1t. Nominations for the officers of the Optimist club are now in order.

PERVERTED ART.

Oh, Art What deeds of villainy and oft pass .unnoticed in thy sacred
 guise. What far suggestion, flaming passion
 into flame. Corrupts tho heart, whilst ravishing Religions, friend and allyi men have
 made
 Thee oft do service at seduction's
 shrine, To Venus and to Bacchus lending By music and by painting all divine. As when some female apes salomes And dances, thinly clad. to mans de-
 light, The spacious "art' demands its booty
 still.
 And heads and hearts repay the lus-
 cious sight. As when the sculptor carves the form Or painter paints with sin-polluted
 brush, The art fig ally of the base and bad And fashion cannot hide the proper
 blush True art is pure as the empyreal blue It's proper sphere the beautiful and
 good; To every noble purpose 1t is true. And seeks to bless our common
 brotherhood. But "art" that poisons every moral
 sense,
 That sta ns the finer thought with
 base desire. Is Sin, pretending heavens innocence, And Satan, dressed in puritys attire.

Dr. HndIey's sermon.

 Dr. Hadley president of Yale, con tinues naturally his fight against shams. He has always hated man of this stamp, and he does not intend that Yale shall graduate such. What he said Sunday before 5000 students, must have found lodgment in the hearts of ct least a few of them. We all de- splse from the bottom of our hearts" he said. "a man who works to make a show and neglects the substance un- derneath. We all condemn just as strongly though we may not despise him so thoroughly, the man whose life day of judgment the wicked will be condemned not for the great sins which they have left unrendered. The right eous will be distinguished not by tho bered. but by the little deeds that they have forgotten"

Johnny Bull, either imminent or brew ing. If any two countries were on good terms with each other, the United States and Great Britain are today. Proof of this fact may be had in many quarters The present agreement, just going into force, whereby the postage on letters between this country and Great Britain and Ireland has been re- duced from five to three cents, is but one example.
 Midnight last night was the time set for this change in the postal rates. Speaking broadly, 1t will mean that the two countries concerned will be welded together more unitedly than ever before. Where London and New York business interests In the past have had much in common, they will now become 'inseparable. our large mail-order houses will be able 10 can vass England for possible customers by mail with their catalogues quite as easily as they have been able to can vass this country ln the past On the other hand, English mercantile houses, too. will find their available field has far wider horizon A reduction of more than fifty per cent. In the postal rates Is no small item with the oc- caslonal correspondent; what 1t means with corporations which have enormous malls may best bo imagined
 As result of the reduction lt Is cer- tain that the transatlantic malls to Great Britain thls week will be the heaviest on record. Many will be tempted 10 write who would not or dInarily. Not a few of the big busI- ness houses have been holding Up their English mall tin after the first of the month to enable them to take advan- tage of the new rates In addition there is the fact that October first ordinari- ly marks the beginning of fall trade and marks this year the return of American prosperity again, Men who have been In the service of the post office department for years in New York and who have seen the European mails grow ton after ton have express cd their inability 10 estimate tho size of the malls that may now be expect ed.
 IL should be remembered that the change only applies to letters sent 10 our English cousins, not 10 newspapers magazines, parcels or even postal cards. rrt reductions in these classes of mall will soon follow. The ideal of many who for decades have longed for uniform postal rates for all classes of mall, including m international par eel post, seems now 10 be within hail Ing distance. It's advent will do much toward bringing the nations of the earth together in q common brother hood

captain BlgcIow's Opinion.

topTlHgnelu NepuDllCH0.J
 One of the best words for athletics fin colleges was spoken by Ray Bigelow, former captain of the Yale football team and now it's coach to Sunday afternoon meeting in New York city under the auspices of the Young Men'u Christian association. The time was" said MT Blgelow, when the best fell low in college was he who could drink all his fellows under the table, Tho 10 say tha, two-thirds Of the men on the great amateur baseball and foot baU teams are either out-and -out Christians or are morally clean" Per haps thls description of an old time good fellow' obtained more in the larger colleges than in what have been called the fresh water institutions. But let Mir. Blgelow develop his point of view sun further:
 An old Yale man, who can call the names of practically every player of the Yale teams since 1880. as well as the great games In which they engaged and the great plays of each game, said 10 mo a few days ago: The quarter back of every football team must be the finest man, morally as well as physically who can be found He must be man In whom every other member of the team has the highest confidence" II has been my observation not only that this Is true, but as a rule this man has been the Christian or the nor ally clean man.
 In this connection it Is worth whllo to recall how care for the body has come to hold an Increasingly important place In the educational life of the country. Not only Is lt true that those who are 10 compete in athletic con- tests are forced to take care of them selves, but more and more is being done 10 make the desirabiity of this more apparent to young men every where, Physical directors are being trained 10 make the sports of a college or a Young Mems Christian association so Inclusive as to benefit the whole body. as well as the few There can be no doubt, either, that all this makes for morality and clean living.

THE GREATER WAR.

Tho United States is having the great honor of playing the part of host at an important and significant con- vention now being held in Washing ton, the International Congress on Tu- berculosls. Practically all the civillz- ed world Is today concerned Tn the war upon this dread disease. Practically all the civilized world Is represented at the present congress It's official lan guages now include German, Spanish, French and English, Spanish having been added since the last session three years ago In Paris,
 A little sober reflection will convince ono that there Is not q moro import ant series of conferences being held periodically In tho world. Even the monster peace conferences at the Hague are not more influential or ne- cessary. The latter, at best, have &C., complished but few tangible results that are not in grave danger of being swept away at any moment by a threatening international difficulty It Is not less noble to strive Co save human lives from the dread death of the consumptive than from death on tho battlefield IL is in a sincere and potential spirit of International human brotherhood. then, that the delegates now convened at Washington have gathered.
 Especially should the present con- gross he significant In this country. When our own Professor Fisher of Yale tells us that lss,O0O of our coun- try-men are now annually taken from us by this plague. that 5,OO0,OOO Ameri- cans now living are doomed to All con sumptives' graves, to say nothing of tho 2O,O00,O00 more who will be made miserable by these deaths. and that tu- berculosis is costing us in this country over sl,000, 100000 in hard cash each year, some idea of tho importance of the fight Is had. And when lt is re- f'ected that authorities are agreed that tho disease may be positively cured, 1T comhatted at the right time. this greater war may be taken up with re- newed hope and enthusiasm.
 New Haven ia far from being among tho "aso-rans'' in this greater war. The results of the work at Gaylord Farm can never be properly estimated in terms that all can appreciate. Tho recent beginnings of an even larger work under the experienced leadership of Mir Gunshanan of Hartford have been suspicious No time could be found moro propitlous for following up these beginnings than now, when the Washington congress has set the whole matter before the country as could not be done in any other way. Last week the suggestion was made that tag day" be held in this city to gather funds for the tuberculosis work The success of the "tag-day" recently held in Meriden for Inc benefit of the Un- dercliff sanitarlum would augur for similar success in New Haven. But to get the best results such an undertake Ing should not be arranged solely by the Sunshine societies, however cred ltably they may be, It would be far better to have a representative and comprehensive committee to superln- tend the gathering of funds, The greater war will be renewed on a greater scale as result of the Wash ington congress and New Haven will not be found tagging on the firing line.
