nature of the suit was rather unusual

about 80 years old, claimed that Bogart,

abandon in 1906 a physical culture ana
painting instruction business on Flfth

The worklnn excavating the ground
for the foundations for the new building
of the National Biscuit Company, at
Tenth Avenue and Fifteenth street, un-
carthed the charrcd hulk Of q big sailing
vessel in a air state Of preservation.
The unexpected find greatly puzzled the
workmen. the contractors and everybody
connected with the building operations
and even the reputed experts concerning
the city's history were unable to clear
up the mystery of finding a big schooner
buried in the ground far from the banks
of the river. Since then an invcstiga-
ton has been made which establishes
the fact that at one time more than a
hundred years & the Hudson river eX-
tended to the point where the hulk was
found. Close to the old hulk remnants
Of Il pier were found and it is believed
that the schooner was burned to the
water line while at the dock and sank,
never to De raised. In later years the
river bed was narrowed by filling in and
the u of the schooner and the rem
earth.
\ rather interesting suit has been be-
gun in the Chanccry court at Trenton,
n. j., by ex-senator Mitchell Il. Perkins
Of Beverly. BY this suit Mr.. Perkins
seeks to compel the public service COR
poration. now in control Of the lines Of
the old Camden and Trenton Traction
company, to transport him. his wife and
his children, free over the lines. Some
years ago the senator granted the right
Of way over some property OF his tC
the old Camden and Trenton company.
in consideration for which he. his wife
and all Of his children save one. were
to ride free. When the system passed
to the riverside traction company the
other child was included in the contract.
Lately the Public Service acquired the
line and refused to give the Transport
tation, holding that to do so would be
a violation OF the public utiilty law
Corporation lawyers and others are
greatly interested in the suit and are
awaiting the decision of the court in
this case with more than ordinary inter-
est.

STRAY TOPICS
FROM LITTLE
OLD new YORK

NEW YORK, May 1O--In December Of
last year Samuel kalisch, living at West
! Eleventh street in this city. was arrested
| upon a reluisition ofthe police authori-
| ties Of San Francisco, charging him with
embczzlcment. He was held in Jail for
| nearly q month. was finally extradited
to the authorities of California and sent
to San Francisco to be tried. AT the
| trial 1t was found that he was not the
right man and he was promptly acquit-
ted. Now Walisch has begun a suit for
of San Francisco. The most peculiar
feature Of the case Is the method by
which Kalisch was caught in the meshes
Of the law without really being the
guilty man.
The Samuel Kalisch whom the authori-
ties in San Francisco wanted had en-
bczzcld $500 from a Mrs. McCarty in
San Francisco. In an effort to trap him
the daughter of the victim wrote a num-
Der of tear-staincd love letters addressed
to Samuel Kalisch, which were sent to
different big cities throughout the coun-
try. One of these letters fell into the
hands Of the New York Kalisch, while
he was in Chicago. Although he had
never heard of the writer Of the letter.
he became interested in her n wrote a
letter to her. giving his New York ad-
dress and asking her to send him her
latest photograph and orange for a
meeting. 1t was this letter which led
to his arrest and tho mistake was not
found out until Kalisch was confronted
With the writer OF the decoy letter.

act, Governor hanna issued his proc.
laDation making Sunday, June LIST the
official date to be observed In this
state.
However, 1t Is quite probable that
the people of this state will pay little
attention to the recommendation Of
the legislature and that the greater
part Of the celebrations will be held
IN unison with the balance Of the
people OF the nation.

MAY REDUCE LEGISLATURE.

No state has ever reduced its total
legislative membership, but North Da'
kota may become a pioneer in that
line. Sediment favoring such a re-
duction n daily becoming stronger
and by thc time the next reappor'
tionment Us made 1t may gain suffl'
ciont streSgth to carry all opposition
The NECESSITY for q smaller legls'
lative BODY that will enact laws more
desired by the people and the poor 4.
commodations for the lower branch
OF the legislature are the two primary
causes for the reduction.
1t Is estimated that with a smaller
representation the voters would exer'
else more care in the selection OF the
men sent to make the laws and the
quality would be greatly improved
that with better men there would DC
fewer OF the crank variety and less
likelihood of freak legislation. Bust
ness, it Is thought, would be more eX
peditiously transacted and there
would be less of the rush and excite
ment at the close OF the sessions.
The present house chamber Is IN
adequate. Its acoustic properties arc
such that only those near the front
or near anyone speaking can hear
what Is going on. Half the time the
members in the extreme rear or on
either side do not even know what
measure is up.
The state constitution provides a
minimum Of thirty members OF the
senate and sixty OF the house. Al
ready at this comparatively early
date in the states history, there are
fifty senators and III house members
The increase was not demanded 10y
the people, but was the natural re
suit of the rapid development Of the
western part of the state, emitting
that section to more representation,
while the eastern half held on to tho
former representation. At the last
rcaopportionment some Of the present
evils were realized and the house
membership Of some of the eastern
districts vas reduced but the senator.
ial representation was not changed.
1t is proposed for the next reappor'
tiOnment to hcW to the line and to
get back, ii possible, approximately
to the minimum limit. If possible, an
effort will be made so each county
a have representation In the lower
house, but counties will be doubled up
in the legislative districts so the mum.
Der of senators a be reduced. In
the eastern part Of the state some OF
the larger counties have as many as
three senator's. There will be a re.
duction in these to one or two.
The opposition to the plan will nat
urally arise from the eastern counties
and from the h%oldovcr senator's, but
the advantages in the way Of better
legislation and economy in the states
law making may prevail.

The C~asselton Reporter observes
that the trip of Secretary Bryan to
California was of no apparent effect.
The Reporter thinks if the governor
of California signs the alien land bill
as it passed the Legislature in that
state that it will be but little use to
resort to the referendum, as the vote
of the state might show up in the
wrong way. The Reporter also thinks
that the state of California is en-
b~arrassing the nation without ques-
ton.

The committee in charge of the arrange
ments for the suffrage pageant at the
Metropolitan Opera House last week,
had quite u trenuous time in arranging
for all of the details but their task was
lightened by the fun they derived from
their work, or at least from some por-
ions Of it. For one feature OF the
pageant forty-ninc mere men were need
cd, as these men were to appear In alb
brcviatcd classical costumes and were to
serve a decorative purpose, 1t was con-
sidercd essential that the men selectd
should b really ornamental The com
mittec advertised for perfect specimens
of physical manhood, and judging from
the countless number of letters that ar
rived in response to the advertisement
it seemed that the erfect men OF
the whole world were holding their con-
yention in New York at this time and
that all of them, or nearly all, were an
Xious and eager to display their manly
beauty in the service and to the glory
Of the suffrage cause. Many of the let
ters were exquisitely funny and strongly
appealed to the sense Of humor of the
members Of the committee ..---

to the commissioner of accounts Of the
city, that the sheriff received too lib
eral Il compensation for his not too siren
uOus duties and he sent O report to
Mayor Gaynor setting forth these facts
and recommending Il change in the sys-
TEN. In view Of the fact that the mayor
of New York, whose duties and respon-
sibilities are considerably greater than
those Of the sheriff, receives Il salary OF
only $15. 900 u year, the commissioner OF
accounts suggests that $4,000 a year
would be an adequate salary for the sher'
1T. He recommends that the annual
salary Of the sheriff be fixed at that
amount and tina in the future all fees
collected by the sheriff's office be turned
over to the city. Te report also contains
various other recommendations, includ-
ing one to abolish the county Jail and
transfer it to the sinking fund commits

self strongly in favor Of the plan sug-
gested in the report of the commissioner
