Y. Ia two coffins, side by side, in Brook- lyn to-day Mle the bodies of an aged man and woman. For forty-five years they travelled together. Fate fixed it. too, #0 that together they died. Do not believe that the romance and the love are with the youth and the maiden who despaired and went to the grave, The real romance, the love and the glory are with the aged couple, who carried hope and courage with them through many years and reaped happl- mess in every season, whether or not they piled up riches. Theirs is the true Nife to imitate. ‘The Gouble suicide of the lovers 1s only ome more symptom of what has been alles the “degeneracy” of these last few years of the century. There is no more Gengeracy" now than there ever mmege “degeneracy” now than there ever ‘wea, but men and women can write (qyuck about lovers who die together and Watle about two long lives of ee In ‘spite of all the tulk about Sierepe .” there are thousands and somente ot these quiet, happy lives Jed in this country in this age to or two fevered, morphined ex- jare and show ie epirit of this day is hope, courage, exergy, the conquerors before which the/and nimbler fists of Steve O'Donnell world erything bows down. ‘ THE NEW DEAL The new Police Commissioners are in the olf ones are out. The former members of the Republican family re- tive with a parting kick at the Mayor. Commissioner Martin, the late Demo- cratic President of the Board, dies and makes no sign, He was well prepared to go, because he has known for some time, long before the last election, that be could not hold the office, even under Tammany, Jonger than the expiration of hip term. The pew Commissioners are bi-partl- sanly divided. Mr, Roosevelt and Col. Grant are Republicans; Major Androws and Mr. Parker are Democrats. But no offensive bi-partisanship seems in danger ef prevailing in the new Board. Mr. Roosevelt, Republican, ts President, and the Republicans have two out of three members of every standing committee, emcept that on elections, which consists ef four members, and is, of course, non- Partisan. ‘The decision in the last election was fn favor of a complete and thorough Teorganization and cleansing of the I’o- Mee Department. The mission of the Rew Commissioners is to thoroughly carry out this work. If they do thelr Guty faithfully, directly and fearlessly they will satisfy the people. If they fill to secure practical reform, when It fs in their power to do so, they will be Worse than anything tho Legislature @ould give the city in the way of police Seergenization. A LUCKY THREE OF A KIND. ‘Ab enterprising couple, Albert Zerkles 904 his wife, living at Decatur, Ind., Reve managed to raise a crop more Profitable to the farmer than many things he produces. Mrs. Zerkles re- cently added three children at one birth to the family store, and Mr, Zerkles, the new-comers were all iris, shrewdly pamed them Frances, Ruth and Esther, Qfter President Cleveland's wife and Geughters.

Japan has won too great a victory and secured too valuable results to make It probable that she will have any internal trouble growing out of any concessions in the terms of peace she may deem it expe- dient to make, even if she determines to make any, Neither i# it probable that the protests of any foreign power will be made at the cannon’s mouth or in any other than a courteous diplomatic manner. A curious commentary on the manner in which news Is obtained is the fact that the terms of peace were published in “The World" two days before they were known to the Japan newspapers, MR. PLATT IS VERY BUSY JUST HOW Mr. T. Cvengall Platt may lose his presence of mind now and again, but be never mislays his cheek. That gi- gantic bronze feature he has with him always, and never fails to push it to the front. To an Interviewer he said yes- terJay in answer to some question about the possibilities or probabilities of the National campaign next yea “T am not just now engaged in Presi- dent making.” Not just now, eh?

Tal ti and be sure to do your cheek up in cot- ton batting, so that the files won't bite itt There ls an undue proportion of trai edy in the displayed news of the morn- ing papers to-day, The self-destruction of Zoe Brockway and her lover, at Rome; the wife-murderer and suicide by James Herbert, in New York; the mur- der of Innkeeper Englebrecht, nei Secaucus--these are events which, com- ing together, present @ more than ordl- narily shocking array.
