ed by most members for some time,

unquestionably contributed an important
clement to the knowledge of the Commits
sioner Of conditions within the depart
ment itself.
Commissioner Enright, his inspectors
and captains may know enough Of police
conditions and the policemen to be able to
do without the reports Of such investf-
gators. They will, Of course. have their
own means Of obtaining Information,
whether or not the "shoo-tly" system cX-
lists. When Commissioner Enright says,
however. that there is no need for the
"shoo-tlics" any more he says something
the man in the street will find it hard to
credit. There are we'll over ten thousand
men in the department.. They are subject
to all the faults and shortcomings of hui
man nature They are also subject to
the extraordinary temptations Of their
especial job 1t may not be cheerful for
them to know that they are under surveil-
lance and their work is being checked up.
But, after all, that thought need irll no
honest, conscientious policeman, and OBJ
viously it is needed for the minority who
are of the opposite brand. Good as the
police force is, it is not Yet good enough
20 be beyond policing.

"Pclleas"

In the half century since Carmen
and Boito's "Mefstofcle" we have had
three or four supreme examples Of this
form Of the musicians art. The Wag-
merriam tradition is not dead. Tastes might
differ as to the order in which these three
or four might be named. and the list might
vary little. One would certainly be that
"Arianc ct Barbc-blcu'' which came from
the dazzling pen Of Paul Dukas. Votes
would he divided between Richard
Strauss "Elektra" and his superb setting
Of Oscar Wilde's "Salome." Nearly every
voice would speak for Moussorgsky's IS
Boris" probably Russia's masterpiece
thus far.
But few would hesitate to include the
exquisite setting which Debussy gave to
Maeterliuck's lovely story of ''Pelleas and
Mclisande" No more original opera was
ever penned. none in which story and
music were more marvellously blended.
Lovers Of the rare and precious in art are
deeply in the debt of Maestro Cleofontc
Campanini that after long years they may
hear this rich and haunting score again.

friends, is an astonishing plea. 1t says in
effect that to oblige fellow official he was
willing to exercise his great authority as
president Of the Council Of National Dc
fence to set aside the act Of fellow men,
ber of the council and fellow Cabinet
officer and throw the whole coal industry
back into chaos and confusion. And this
at time when we were endeavoring with
all speed to 60 to tho rescue Of our hard
pressed allies in Europe! 1t does not
greatly matter what element Of truth there
be in the story. Tho act was Secretary
Bakers own. Its effect, as we now know,
was TO check the long and steady increase
in coal production just when wc most
needed it to continue. and, with the Presi-
Dental order which followed it, to bring
about such n lowering in the quality of the
coal produced as seriously to lower the
power production Of our factories and
largely to precipitate the crisis VIC arc
now undergoing.
Secretary Lanes committee had ap-
pealed to the patriotism Of the coal opera
tors Of the United States. Secretary
Baker denounced them as proflteers and
opprcssors. With all this fixed in it's
memory, is it to be greatly wondered at
that the country receives coldly and with
reservations the Secretary's dcnials Of
shortcomings and needless delays in the
Department Of War?

valuable space will be wasted (cxcusc me for
that word, can tind no othcr) in arguments

Every one who at present believes a word
Of the German talk of peace should be classi-
fled among that new species Of idiots called
pacifists, n species. sir. which should be
watched even closer than anarchists.
Let US beware of the Bolshevk microbc
more dangerous to the health of dcmocracies
than any murderous gas the Hun chemists
could discover for their destruction.
With the present state Of mind in the cour

not be answered but by a recital Of fable
which helped the late Lafontane to become
famous. 1t is called in French ala Loup ct

A Hotel for Sailormen

Those were great days in old New York
when you could look down any Of the shore
streets and sec crossyards and square
sails. If it was 4 dull commercial city in
most respects, the dulness ended at the
rivers edge A huge scagoing fleet then, as
now, made fast to the piers of tho lower
city, and the incscapable romance Of the
sea gave tang to tho Battery, TO South
Street, to Water Street, to tho famous old
slips Of the East River that only the tow
ers and majesty Of modern New York can
pretend to rival.
In all that seafaring history the old
Eastern Hotel cut large figure In its
palmlest days, when what is now the Roar
ing Forties was COW pasture, it was graced
by many a distinguished guest. But those
were the years when downtown New York
was still Il resort Of fashion. AS late as
1880 the beaus and bellies paratled along
that graceful little park now so sadly
decimated by clevatods and what not else.
There are still living plenty Of old New
Workers who can remember staying at
that other famous downtown hotel, the
Stevens House. at the head Of Bowling
Green. Aud the flavor, Of Astor House
apple pie is still fresh in how many la
menting memories.
All, all have gone till downtown New
York has been reduced to the bare. crowd

TO replace the old Eastern with a nov.
ten story hotel, aud South Street is specu-
'atng on its prospects. Slender, We sus-
