OLD LONDON BRIDGE.

Il Linked the Twelfth Century With
the Eighteenth.
For centuries old London bridge,
with its double row Of houses, was the
home Of generations who lived and
traded over the Thames waters.
Holbein lived and painted there. Os-
borne, the prentice lad, leaped through
q window in the house Of his master,
Sir William Hewet, to the rescue OF
Sir Williams daughter, who had fallen
into the swollen Hood Of the river be-
low. and BY winning her for his wife
laid the Foundation Of the ducal house
Of Leeds. Crispin Tucker had his shop
ON the bridge. to which Pope and
Swift and many another author OF
fame made pilgrimages to purchase
books and gossip with the waggish
shopkeeper. Crocker's Dictionary was
printed lat the Looking Glass on Lon
don bridge" and gigantic corn mills
dominated the south end Of the struc-
ture, not many yards from the wonder
full Nonsuch House, 4 huge wooden
pile with turrets and cupolas brought
from Holland.
Such in brief outline was the London
bridge which linked the twelfth with
the eighteenth century and which
when 1t was on its last tottering legs
was removed to give place to its fine
successor of our day. the stone in
which is said to be nearly double

The first United States mint at Phil

age. and the salary list Of the first

Tristram Dalton, treasurer. $1,000;
Henry voight, coiner. $500: Isaac
Hugh. clerk. 1912.
The regular coinage Of copper began
in 1893. silver in 1874 and gold in 1895.
The following curious extracts are
taken from the mint rules and regula-
lions Of the early days:
1.-THE allowance under the name Of
drink money is hereafter to be discon-

London, May "A thrilling tale OF
the adventures and misdeeds of an es-
capped convict. which do credit to the
pages of the most sensational dime
novels, comes from Gateshead where
Thomas Craig the hero of the story
was arrested in the loft of a barn af-
ter wandering through the country for
three weeks. during which time he kill

heart
Craig was sentenced about a year
ago to serve seven years on the charge
of burglary. While in prison he sent
numerous letters to his sweetheart.
Annie Walker. begging her to wait for
him and threatening to kill her if she
married any one else. But the girl in
the meantime had met and married a
man by the name of Thomas Hender-
son.
Three weeks ago Craig escaped from
prison and he Immediately made his
way to his sweetheart's dwelling. He
learned of her marriage and traced
her to her new home where he sur
prised the young couple as they were
hanging pictures. After a few words
of denunciation he drew his revolver

him instantly Mrs. Henderson was
wounded but not dangerously.

Urges Asylum Reform,

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Dear Sir-The statements made by
Fred Merklin in the county asylum in
vestigation Indicate a very bad state
of affairs in an institution where peace
and quietness contribute so largely to
the welfare of the patients. That pa
tents should be made to do manual
labor, fight with each other and boss
one another at the direction of an at
tendant is a most serious charge, and
the investigation should go right to the
bottom of things. In the case of pa
tients whose testimony would be out of
the question owing to their mental con-
dition or those who cannot commune
cate the happenings of the place, much
more grave charges may be imagined.
Now that the Investigation is ON and
the true state of affairs is becoming
, known. permanent improvement should
be accomplished and things not allowed
to go back in the same old rut and re-
quire another probe later on.

m REORGANIZATION of the Republican party in New York,
AZ as contemplated by Governor Hughes and Senator Root,
will involve the retirement of Timothy J.. Woodruff from
the State craftsmanship and the retirement to the ranks OF a num-
Der of men who are prominent in the party councils. The Senator
Aids investigation at Albany and the evident purpose OF the ma
jority leaders in the Legislature to restrict the investigation to a
single charge against Aids, and "et it go at that, have aroused
the apprehension of party leaders in the State who are not of the
Aids school of politics. A successor to Aids as majority leader
in the Senate is to be chosen, and the job has been framed to elect
TO that position Senator Cobb, a man identified with the present
discredited regime. Senator Root has been yearned for as the State
leader, and he practically assumed that character yesterday when
he wrote from Washington a strong protest against the election OF
any man upfrendly to Governor Hughes, condemning the proposed
choice of Cobb. and favoring that of Senator Hinman. The effect
of this letter was to head off the selection of Cobb in the Repub-
lican senatorial conference last night and postpone action until
tomorrow. 4 party revolution is not to be effected without a
struggle. The men who have controlled the Republican organiza-
ton in New York will not easily be displaced, and if they have to
succumb there will be implacable resentments and revenges to
satisfy. ' =+ E.

M7o member of the State Senate who voted against the bill
NN permitting a referendum on the question of Belleville an
nexation can make an honest explanation of his motives
for so voting without a confession of shame. The vote against
the bill was a violation of political decency, a brutal denial of
home rule, a breach of public duty, an outrage on a community.
The bill was simply assassinated, and with the most unworthy
motives. There was not a trace of political partisanship in the bill.
Its promoters are mostly Republicans, who have at heart the wei
fare of their township and who are convinced that Belleville will
prosper far better under the government of Newark than as an
independent entity. For several years the right of the Bellevine
people to vote on this question was successfully opposed by one
man owning a large amount of unimprOved property, which he will
not improve or allow others to imprOve-an enemy of progress.
This vulgar opposition, made successful by the strange com
plaisance of Senator Hand of Cape, May, who. as committee chair.
man, strangled the bill, was fortified at the present session by a
no less vulgar opposition by Newark politicians, ready to sacrifice
both the township and the city of Newark to their cheap ideas OF
partisan politics. 1t was a sorry exhibition that was made in the
Senate Yesterday when the Be1leville annexation referendum bill
was defeated by motives and by tactics that placed the Senate and
some of its members in a contemplate attitude before the people
