First Victory Of ths Revolution.


The Importance of the assault upon
Fort William and Mary is generally
overlooked by historians. The demon
strations against various British armed
vessels. beginning with the firing upon
the schooner st. John in July, 1864, as
well as the battle Of Alamance, in
North Carolina, in 1771, were essential
ly local and were so far removed from
the Revolutionary period that they pro
duced no appreciable effect upon the
war itself. The Boston massacre
was the repulse Of a mob by squad
of British regulars, but at Fort VIII
liam and Mary the royal standard was
lowered for the first time, and the gun
powder taken therefrom was burned
by the patriots at Bunker Hill. The
king recognized in the daring assault
the inevitability of the impending
struggle There is truth in the claim
set forth on the tablet on the old Fort
Constitution of today that the site
marks "the first victory of the Amer
lean Revolution."-Army and Navy

WASTE IN REPAVING.

To the Editor CO The Tribune.
Sir: One avenue Of waste OF city funds in The
Bronx is the repaving Of streets. a glaring in
stance of which is in evidence along Third
avenue from 1ssth To I48th street The present
paving is of granite block and is in good condition
Il is being replaced by new granite blocks at cost
Of s5l27 50. Controller Metz states: The selec-
ton Of this street solely with the president Of
the Borough Of The Bronx, on whom the respon-
sibility placed by the charter. According to in
formation furnished by the Bureau Of Municipal
Research the responsibility for rePaving streets
rests with the Borough President and the Board Of
Estimate, the city charter authorizing corporate
stock to be issued for repaving to an amount not
exceeding S3.oea-0o0 inSany one year
The intent of the law is clearly to replace worn
out unserviceabe pavenents with good ones
not substitute for good pavements others no bet
ter or not good. Evidence Of the extent to
which this waste is carried may be seen in great
piles Of good paving stones needlessiy removed
from Bronx streets at WestchesteU avenue and the
Bronx River, along Webster avenue, at SedgTick
avenue near Washington Bridge and elsewhere
throughout the borough II might be well for the
Charter Revision commission 10 provide some
check or safeguard TO project the city against an
abuse OF couneudable provision OF law
