The Ice Water Haiti.
From the Boston Herald.

From the Boston Herald.
The great tendency of busy men
and women during the heated days of
summer is to seek solace in cooling
drinks Particularly has the custom
grown up in America, as nowhere else,
to have ice water convenient and to
counteract the high temperature OF
the body with long. unhesitating gulps
Each glass is said to lower the inter
nal temperature about twenty degrees
thus stopping the natural digestive
and assimilative process. which can
not recover under half an hour from
the shock. But the same glass of wat.
er If poured over wrists and hands
would accomplish more good with no
evil results.

Gaynor!
From the New York Sun.

Il AoLi tIC A<CW 1OHh GUN.
Disappointing the expectations of
those who opposed his election, and
SURPRISING the highest hopes of his
friends, Mr.. Gaynor has been a mem
orably efficient mayor, vigilant always
to the public interest, wise with a GER
tain talking simplicity, eager to cor
rect abuses, singularly brave. intel
ligent and alert. full of human and
homely tang. Those who. like us.
doubted the wisdom of his election
bear hearty testimony to the superior
wisdom of the people and to his fine
qualities, and trust that he will live
to continue his admirable public SER
vice and incidentally to know by a
happier than posthumous fame how
thoroughly he, has earned the good
will of his fellow-citizens.

Restrict Sale Of Weapons.
from the Philadelphia Press.

From the PhlIadeIph1a Press.
The sale of weapons has been urg-
ed, in the reports of successive chiefs
of police for twenty years past, as a
fit subject for rigorous restriction by
law and ordinance. The repeated use
of the pistol in the streets last week,
almost every day having its example,
shows the necessity OF limiting the
sale of pistols.
