Stray Topics from
 LittleOld New York

NEW YORK, September ll.--Once more the schools of this city have been opened with not enough seating room for the children of school age. The re- suit will be that about seventy thou sand children will be compelled to at tend school on part time, an injustice to them which is severely criticized by the parents. This is not the first time, however, that there is a shortage in the seating capacity of the New York schools It has been the same story every year for many years. yet no ef- fort has been made by the responsible authorities to remedy this defect. The tax.paying parents are indignant over this state of affairs. They say that it mattered little whether the Board of Estimate or the Board of Education is to blame for the shortage; the fact that it existed is ineXeusable. The Bureau of Municipal Research has is sued statement which openly holds the Board of Education responsible for the shortage in seating capacity and accuses that board of having made no allowance in its estimate for the in crease in attendance naturally to be expected with increase in population. Efforts will be made to remedy the trouble at least to some extent by rent ing emergency quarters in different particularly crowded localities.

 There has been much complaint of the scarcity of good or even tolerably good cartoonists in this country. Con sidering the large number of art stu dents and artists in all parts of the country, among whom are many of de- cided talent and also considering the fact that even a very mediocre cartoon ist can earn ten times more than the average painter of pictures, this scar city has always been puzzle to the community At last the riddle has been explained, however, and the world owes gratitude to Mir. Davenport, who has established certain reputation as maker of cartoons. He explained the matter when his wife, who is sueing for divorce, stated that her husband kept number of fine Arabian horses on his farm in New Jersey, and, there fore, could well afford to pay her $50 a week alimOny. To this, Davenport answered it was true he kept these val uable horses which were a great ex- pense to him, but were necessary to him as an inspiration in his business and without them he would be unable to make success as cartoonist. No wonder there are so few good cartoon

 Once in a while death displays a ccr- tain grim humor in selecting his prey The other day man who had spent half his life in the dangerous profes sion of steeple jack and had become famous throughout the country, died at one of the New York hospitals from tue effects of internal injuries sustained when he fell of chair, about two feet high at his home. Another case of similar nature was that of an in sect exterminator few days ago, He was the inventor of patented method of destroying bugs by means of fum. gating apparatus and derived good income from undertaking contracts to rid houses and apartments from bugs by his method. The other day while thus employed in an apartment he set his fumigating apparatus going but re- mained so long in the room where he was working that he was overcome and killed by the fumes of his own inven- ton.
 The question whether five cents or
 ten cents shall be the fare to be charged for riding through the Jersey City. New York tunnel is stil undecided, but it seems that the advocate of the scent fare will have a hard time win ming a victory. The corporation con trolling the tunnel line, as might be- expected, favors a l0.cent fare; but its wishes alone would not have weight enough to decide the question in favor of the higher fare. The strongest and most dangerous opposition to the lower fare comes from the merchants and businessmen of Jersey City and sur rounding towns, who are making des perate efforts to prevent the adoption of the scents fare. They fear that the consumers of Jersey City would go to New York to make their purchases in stead of patronizing the stores in their own city, if they could travel to Man haitian and return for 10 cents. It is quite likely that the interests of the tunnel corporation and of the Jersey City merchants will be considered par by the powers that be-the public be d..
