MINUTES IN MANHATTAN (By Gotham Knickerbocker.) New York. — I see a terrible outrage brewing in the distance. The plot ters are at work. The innocent tan go must be slaughtered. After en tertaining society for many moons, its hosts are about to turn and rend it limb from limb. "Everybody’s doing it.” That’s the reason the Fifth Avenue leaders are to use the knife. You see this is a game which the society leaders have played for wears. They cut their coats short and six months later the hoi pollio has fol lowed suit. Then there is a great hurry and bustle in the upper realms to get new coats cut long. Anybody with one of the short coats is out of if. Six months go by. The “com mon herd" .has waked up to the fact that “the style lias changed." Ixmg coats begin to appear on 125th and 14th Street. There is again confusion and turmoil among the leaders. Again they cut their coats short, but in a little different shaie from the .-hort coats above referred to. Six months later —but what’s the use? You all know the system. So this Is the way the tango 1s go ing. It started with some London bishops, peevish because few came to listen to their dry discourses. The cu rious queen of England, who sets her self up as a model for everything, also disapproved and set sour vi-age ask ance German royalty found the steps to be not for fat persons. European society circles slavishly bowed. But let me tell you as one who knows his little old New York that it. was none of these which caused the sentence of execution on Miss Tango hereabouts. Society found it self doing no more than was being done in Squashtown Sullivan County, and stood aghast. It is still standing, gasping and looking around for a sub stitute. This substitute will soon be found and then “good nig’t Miss Tan go." She'll disapi' ar from Sherry's' aud the Fifth 1 :;li rooms, a M fjjP^^^^^W|jj^p , Vk» Can’t Blame Him for Whispering. Can You? little later the Astor will know her no more, and then by degrees she will become extinct in dancing palaces of lesser and lesser rank, until the day will come when she will only be known in truly rural communities, where city visitors will find her in the summertime and marvel at the quaint old customs. Radium Thieves. The theft of a tiny disk of radium from a hospital here almost simulta neously with the purloining of a sim ilar valuable speck of smear in Chi cago would naturally lead one versed in the ways of the underworld to sur mise the formation of a radium thief trust. There are organizations of crooks who make a specialty of stealing au tomobiles in the street, dressing them up, and selling them in other cities; there are clothing thief leagues, there are dog thieves and chicken thieves, fraternities of postofifee yeggs and clubs ol pickpockets. So why not to dium thieves? All the radium thieves need is a catchy name, like, "White hander’ o r “rank fiend” to be admitted to our besst circles of criminology. My idea of what not to steal Is a nice little chunk of radium—say enough almost to choke a ladybug if she tried to swallow it, about $500,000 worth. After sneaking into that awesome place, a hospital for special diseases, asd swiping it but of the side of some IKior devil of a cancer patlnent's face, tlie thief would like as not put his find in his inside coat pocket and start to stroll along Broadway from Forty- Second to Thirty-Fourth Street, where more full fledged criminals are on view any sunshiny afternoon than in any similar stretch of the civilzed world. He would enjoy a few hours of bliss. He would read in the after noon papers of the mysterious theft of $500,000 worth of radium and chuckle. But when night fell that sec tion of the clothing near the tube of radium would glow as though pos sessed by the devil. The first po liceman would grab him by the coat collar. And supposing he had time to spil the tube out of his pockets, his coat would go on glowing with a white light just the same. He would he thrown into jail with slight chance of escaping. But he should worry— t!ie radium would already have eaten into his flesh to such an extent that he would be well on the way to the grave by morning anyway. If ever it’s true that virtue is its own reward, it will be found so by light fingered gentry who keep away from the temptation of radium. Even supposing these artists are clever enough to protect themselves from the baseful rays. They will he much harder up than the man who robbed a farmer of a SIO,OOO blooded calf and then found he could only sell the animal for $5 worth of veal. If it was a nugget of gold the un lawful possessor could say “I was wandering along the edge of the great Amargosa Desert one day, when sud denly," and all that. But noboy ever fond a nugget of radium. Every milli gram of radium has a pedigree and without, said pedigreel warn ail my acquaintances among the thieving pro fession, their radium loot had best be thrown into the river. In New York we have a pleasant little custom. When a man ol an easy conscience refuses to support the wife he promised to love, cherish and obey —in " effect—for ever and ever, the state highway seizes him and for a few two, too brief weeks, supports him in luxury at an institution called Ludlow Street Jail. This justly fa mous place is too well-known to need mention were it not for the danger to which the landmark of the East Side is subject. Sheriff Grifenhagen, threatens to reform it. As well try to reform the Battle of Bull Run or Benedict Arnold, or the Declaration of Independence or any of the old standbys of history. But I see that our retiring Sheriff, the great Julius Harburger, has gone so far as to take part of the blame for Ludlow Street upon his own shoul ders. Really this is too much. Lud low Street takes its way serenely without deigning to notice such a slight thing as a sherif. “I found it a jail—l left it a sanitorium” or something of the sort, Julius is quot ed as saying. He even takes credit for the fine theatrical entertainments which are such a charming feature of Ludlow Street life. This is going too far. Julius will claim everything. But listen to Julius, creator of a million deputies, patron of revolver factories, poet and literateur:: "Ludlow Street is just a place for the temporary compulsory confine ment of gentlemen. The Ludlow Stret MONDAY, JANUARY 12. institution is no place for criminals. If any one did wrong there he was sent to prison, "the Tombs” for in stance. But the cells are almost as uncomfortable in Ludlow Street as in Sing Sing or any other regular prison. Of course I never had the heart to: compel any of the gentlemen alimo ners to stay in the cell. I think I gave entire satisfaction as sheriff. Gentlemen temporarily detained in Ludlow Street jail often Informed me the cuisine was excellent. Best Cough Medicine for Children. "I am very glad to say a few words in praise of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,” writes Mrs. Lida Dewey, Milwaukee, Wis. “I have used it for years both for my children and | myself and it never fails to relieve | and cure a cough or cold. No family with children should be without it as it gives almost immediate relief in cases of croup.” Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is pleasant and safe to take, which is of great importance when a medicine must be given to young children.
