VERY COARSE WORK

How thoroughly the administration appreciated the coarseness of its rough house tactics with the charter is shown in the circumstance that Clerk O'Neil goes back to his place for two years.
 L As for the election of MT. Johnson of Kansas, to succeed MT. Brennan, that also had to be done all over again, the original work as ordered by the de facto mayor and supervised by the de jure mayor of Bridgeport, not being sufficiently fine to escape the maledictions of the city attor- ney.
 All of which must be somewhat hu- initiating to the de jure mayor, who is lawyer and ought to have known better. Perhaps he did. Obey or ders if you break owners is the mer- riest maxim of all, and it is we'll known that the chief duties of de jure mayor are to do as he is told, except when it is his duty to undo as he is told.

DAMON AND PYTHIAS

In this cold and cruel world, in
 which men hate each other as often as not. and such warm personal friends as Taft and Roosevelt were,
 persecute and use each other des- pitefully, the picture of real Da- mon and Pythias friendship is like 2 ham sandwich to a famished tramp.
 Denying the existence of fidelity, true friendship and untarnished zeal, cer- tain persons, not now known, assert ed that there had been a break" between a gentleman in the Republi- can organization, who looks after leg islation, and another gentleman, who looks after the finance of said organ ization by the process vulgarly refer red to as furnishing the mazuma. For tunately nobody believed the auda- e1ous slander. As we'll might one be- lieve that the water could separate from the fountain, the desert from it's oasis, or the chorus girl from her trophic chasm be riven in the fabric of things. But doubt has been re- moved by the personal statement of the principals. One gentleman, ac- cording to the other gentleman, is willing to die for the aforesaid other gentlemen if necessity arises, and no quarrel, we are assured from the same

authentic source, could occur between one gentleman and the other, upon this earth,' which encourages hope that the same peaceful relationship may be continued in the hereafter as a reward for the angels, or, prefer ably in another region where the spectacle of a pure and holy friend ship is sadly needed.
 One blot appears upon the vera cious tale, in that so much devotion and latent self sacrifice seems to be based upon a community of interest, rather than upon the spontaneous admiration which lofty souls histor- ically display for each other. .
 we have been too closely tied up in various matters for years to have any break come between us," ex- plains the gentleman who believes that the last, sad devotion of life it. self would be laid upon the altar of friendship, should need be.
 One must confess a certain curios- ity to know what is the tie that binds with Siamese bond, the units of this splendid fraternity.
 Can that bond be the twenty year water contract, the public utilities legislation and some other offerings which have adorned the altars of sa- cred friendship within recent mem- ory?

Exit the oyster. As an unwritten law demands that the-no. we shall not call it the succulent bivalve-that the oyster vanish from the bill of fare on the thirtieth day of April, not to reappear until the first of September. to-day will afford the last opportun- ity for four months to enjoy the sue the oyster. The season now closing has been an excellent one for the oys- ter industry, as in most sections the croI has been good and, as the con sumer knows, the price has been well maintained. A source of grief to epicures is that the wild oyster, once plentiful, is now all but extinct. The tame, domesticated oyster, it is declar- ed, can never equal in flavor that possessed by the oyster that roametn free and selected its bed where it lis teth. Comparatively few wild oys- ters have reached the city markets during the last season, and within a few years, it is predicted, the aborig- inal oyster will be as extinct as the orinthiniculouszith. And that, it is stated on good authority, is even ex- tincter than the we'll known dodo.

Very coarse work" was the com ment of late metropolitan chief of police upon the conduct of certain po- litical personages of his vicinage. "Very coarse york;" was the comment of the city attorney when he had fin ished his scrutiny of the record Of the proceedings of the board of char ities. Perhaps MT. Pullman's lan- guage was different, but his conclu- sions were the same. In fact, they appear to have been the identical conclusions reached by Former City Attorney Cullinan, who as counsel for Clerk Dennis O'Neil, insisted that the work was really TOO coarse and would not be tolerated by the courts.
 The reinstatement of Clerk O'Neil has not been unexpected by the read CTS of this newspaper, although it comes more promptly and by the vol untary action of the administration, instead of by the compulsion of a writ of mandamus.

Steamer Ontario

New London, April 3O.-The Scott wrecking Company of this city re- ceiyed a wireless message from tnelr operator aboard the tug Tasco at Montauk Point late last evening, stat ing. that the Merchants and Miners Line steamer Ontario, which caught fire off Block Island three weeks ago. was successfully noated late yester- day afternoon.
 her way from Baltimore to Boston. and her Captain turned her nose to- ward the nearest shore, and went full sneed upon the beach south of Mon tank LiRhthouse All of the pas sengers and crew were landed safely and brought to New London. The cargo aboard the steamer, valued well m in the thousands, burned fiercely for three days, and all the steel nlates above the water lines are re- ported to be badly warped. The On fario's hull is also badly punctured. and divers will have to do consider able patching before the vessel can he lowed safely to this harbor. The hig steamer was taken to a harbor inst north of Montauk Point fast night and temporary repairs will be made at Promised Island today.
 During the three weeks that the Ontario has been pounding on the beach the fleet of New London and Boston wrecking tugs were able to Iay alongside only one-third of the time. Mariners here consider the wrecking company very lucky in get ting the steamer afloat once more. Thousands of dollars worth of mer- chandise has been lightered from the steamer and brought to this city.

April for centuries, but of late years it has been replaced by a grand fete. From all over Belgium would-be Ben- edicts and lovely maidens gathered ih the quaint village on the last day of April, and only very bashful men left without brides. A couple of years ago it was decided that for the benefit of the backward swain the women be permitted to do the proposing, and the scheme was so successful that it has become a fixture. The rival town of Ronquieres has established a sim liar festival, and to-day it is likely will go a-courting.

automobile, the air ship, the motor boat and the football game. The unloaded gun has rank, and the auto mobile leads. Modern fun is more deadly than ancient fun, if we ex- cept the gladitorial combats and the knightly feats of arms in which bat tie axes were too freely used. The gladitorial combats ought not to count. since the victims were com pelled to take chances, or did it ro earn a living.
 The reckoning is with amusements which bring death by violence, which accounts for the omission of those prime recreations-intemp eat ing. drinking and smoking, which slay their millions of joy seekers and make all other sources of recreative elimination look like pikars.

DEATH IN MODERN PROHIBITIONS

George Borup, an Arctic explorer who was with Peary when he discov- cred the North Pole, drowned in a canoe, off Crescent Beach, in the sound, Sunday, furnishing one more example of the uncertainty of life and the vagaries of death. That man who had survived the perils of polar exploration should meet his end on a pleasure excursion, in canoe, on an inland water, is one of those whims of existence with which men are con- founded.
 The increase in the death rate from the pleasures which men and women pursue, especially those of the leisure class, is one of the phenomena of the times. The leading means by which men get killed just for fun are the

Those are considerable accomplish. ments for one of her tender years, al. though performed unconsciously by a young lady who is now more inter. ested in her shubby Dutch dolls than in thrones. crowns. and such things Well may the Dutch celebrate the an nlversary Of the day that gave them Juliana.
 Wflhelmina Helena Paulina Maria ruling Queen of the Netherlands, mar ried the German Prince, Henry o1 Mecklenburg-S -Schwerin. in 1901. but fol eight years the stork, although he ap. peared on the horizon several times passed by the palace where his arrival was so anxiously awaited Germany which had long looked with covetous eyes toward it's little neighbor on the West, began to take hope. In the ab- sence of an heir or heiress to the land by Germany would become easy and the empire would gain great com mercial and naval advantages by the possession of the Dutch ports.
 Early in 1909 it was again rumored that the stork was approaching the palace at The Hague, but the Dutch people had long abandoned hope Then on the thirtieth day of April came the glad news that a daughter had been born to the Queen The greatest excitement and enthusiasm prevailed throughout the little coun- try. In every city, town and village the church bells were rung, the whis- ties shrieked, and there were services of thanksgiving in every community No people are more patriotic nor value their independence more highly than the Dutch, and the prospect of be- coming a part of the German Empire was not alt all pleasing.
 Juliana, the first name of the wee Princess, was given her in memory ot Countess Juliana of Nassau. wife o1 Prince Frederick Henry and mother of the two branches Of the royal house Of Orange-Nassau. The name Louise is in honor of Louise de Coligny, wife Of William the Silent, and the other names conferred upon the Princess are in recognition Of her mother and grandmothers
 The little Princess is the only girI in Europe who Is a direct heiress to 8 Kingdom. The Dutch people still hope that their Queen may give them boy but early this year, following reports of an expected interesting event al the palace, they were again disap- pointed. In the absence of a male heir, Princess Juliana, if she lives, will succeed her mother as Queen regent of the Netherlands. The daily doings of the Princess occupy columns o1 space in the papers of Amsterdam and The Hague. although her life is little different from that Of the av. craze little girl of her age. Her first tooth caused the conservative Dutch papers to break out into scare heads and was the occasion for national re- joicing.
 A majority of the heirs to European thrones are now mere children. The Prince of Wales will be e:g-<een in Inn Iy1pS cio'- ha{, ,1 . ;- 8, Belgium's is 9, Ttaly's T. while the Spanish heir will be just ten days hence.

1t does for hauling merchandise, and it is ridiculous to suppose that it costs the railroad as much to haul a ton of coal as it does merchandise.
 The only explanation for the higher coal charge is that all competition has beeen suppressed in the coal carry ing trade, whereas the roads are still forced to fight each other for their merchandise patronage. Coal is charged "alI the traffic will bear.' and it will bear great deal because the railroads control the coal fields and the transportation, and fix the tidewater price by agreement among themselves.
