But that time has long since gone by, and ap- parently beyond hope of recall or imitation. If the preponderance of human testimony be worth anything our thoroughfares have never been, since they were first paved, in a more filthy and discreditable condition than now, ‘and never was the work of pretending to sweep them so badly done. Practically, the money paid for that service, as at present performed, ‘TENNIS OXFORDS $2.50, RUSSET OXFORDS 83.50. RUSSET LACE 85, CALF-SKIN OXFORDS 84.

The so-called removal of the dirt that is swept together is undertaken at night when the men engaged in that duty can- not see to do it properly, even were they ever 80 well disposed, and, for want of vigilant over- sight, it is generally done in the most careless and slovenly manner possible. The result is that a certain percentage of the sweepings thus left by both sweepers and collectors is again seattered over the streets, sidewalks and lawns by the next breeze that blows, and the rest is RUSSET BUTTON 84, & g00d shoe for seashore or mountain, CLARET GOAT OXFORDS $3.50.

In the first place the body of the victim, though badly gashed, is all together, whereas it was the practice of the original mur- derer to carry off a part, apparently as a ghastly trophy. In the second place the police are said to have been warned by # mysterious letter bearing the signature, “Jack, the Rip- per,” received the day before this crime that the murderous work was about to be resumed.

If that is cited as a reason why New York should furnish a site for the fair it is a poor argument. As long ago as when Addison wrote his Spectator papers the idea of a tele- graph was broached in England, but it re- mained for Morse to perfect the plan, get the credit and reap the profits, after all. The idea of a world’s fair may have been first proposed in New York or in Boston, in Chicago or in Philadelphia, but it was in Washington that the program was fully laid out and the work done which has given the project its best impetua, OXFORD TIES and TENNIS SHOES to go now at 48 cents, HEILBURN'S SHOE HOUSE, 402 7TH STREET, See: The Old Lady in Window. 18 $$ The civil service commission continue to pour hot shot into the ranks of office-holders who are re P A Bb found deficient in honesty and discipline, and ERE Fe AA DB the people at large are waking up to the idea gE 4 Boo that there is really something in the reform, after all.
