That no choice has yet been made

i-cores of Tammnay braves who have

Wasted Words.
All long distance letter writing rec
ords have been broken In this city to
day by the publication of the corre
spondence which the local utilities
commission has hurled at the head of
the receiver of the Third Avenue Rail
road during the last two and a half
years. Bearing testimony to the
"sensible and helpful" character of
the public service commission at Al
bany, Mr. Whitridge prefaces his
unique volume by calling attention to
the quadrupled cost to the taxpayer
of the city board over that for the
state, which has really regulated with
119 final orders, while its city cousins
have consumed 1281 to little or no
purpose. While the city commission
ers have run almost three miles of
8-point old style type in their corre
spondence course on trival faults in
this one reorganizing road, it is
shown that no one but the printer
met a serious set back. With Kings! has profited much by this waste of
solidly advocating Edward M. Shepard
as the man most fit to raise the hopes
of the party in state as well as na
tion. the Tammany men agree that
their best interests now lie in Joining
the strong sweep of independents in
Manhattan to this candidate. Unless
some stronger successor to Depew
can be brought forth, it is today con
ceded that the popular demand for
Shepard will surely be gratified when
the legislature comes to the final se
lection of the party’s national pillar.
Children's Chance.
To give five hundred stage children

company in this town have today vol

“August” on the Ice.
From hoop skirts to hoble skirts,
August Brown, the park skate man,
has watched feminine New York glide
over the lake where he is today open
ing his fifty-second year as custodian
of ice runners. Of all the aged public
servants about this town Old Gus is
now by far the most ancient and
reminiscent. When Central Park was
a day’s journey from the city streets,
this Darmstadt German began to won
der why people here did not use the
skating chairs that helped the sport
in his fatherland. From that day to
this he has haunted the edge of the
Ice with his seat and foot runners,
while the town has grown all about

conscientious housekeeper. What to
have for three meals a day, seven
(lays a week, fifty-two weeks a year,
how to get It cooked, served and
cleared away, how to get It planned
and paid for, Is a mountain of perplex
ity. The simple faith of the tramp
that he will meet with kindly people
Is easy going in comparison.
The thing to do to make life less
ha#d Is to acquire some of the sim
plicity of the tramp as regards liv
ing. One need not depend upon the
bounty of the charitablo to eat bread
and milk. One can partake of It In
the privacy of his home and Pay for
It of his own purse. But th-3 bread
n<l milk attitude toward the menu
would simplify things all around,
There would be less planning
meals, less cookery, less dishwashing,
less strenuous buslnes to keep the
household going.
If all one's belongings could be put
Into three trunks how simplified tbe
matter of furniture and clothes would

drawerfuls of clothes that are seldom
worn, and roomsful of chairs that are
seldom sat upon.
There's no doubt about It, we ac

life hard to live. The real Joys of life
we have to pass by because we are
rushing so hard to earn money for un
necessary things. And .vet who is go

all wait for the other. We feverish*

A faint little breeze wag bearing
A little white cloud 'cross the sky;
Hut the cloudlet, nil valorous and dsr
Ing,
Longed with the storm-king to fly.
So when to the top of the mountain,
Where chained lay the mighty old
wind,
The cloud was borne by the zephyr,
She whispered: “Be kind, ah, be
kind."
"1 long for the storm and the tempest"
But tbe rocks caught tbe old wind's
reply:
"Rest safe on my bosom, beloved,
And tempest and storm both defy.
But the cloudlet fared onward' un
heeding,
Without even shedding a tear,
To the borne of the storm-king she
hurried,
To the tempest and stress she held
dear.
In the sky the cloud still Is sailing,
And now sometimes longs for the
wind,
Who, raging and wrath unavailing,
Is striving bis chains to unbind.
