NEW YORK IT MUST STAY. A number of donkeys are proposing to ehange the old name of New York and to rechristen the beloved city, Some Gesire to abbreviate it to “York.” Others @uggest “Manhattan.” “Sterling” has been proposed, and one New England Booby wants “Holyoke.” Out upon such folly. Everybody loves New York, Every man 1s proud of call- ing himself a would care ‘New Yorker.

THE SEIZUZE OF THE SKIRTS. ‘The “Unique” Cycling Club, of Chi. @ago, met in Union Park yesterday fo: run. One of the rules requires the use Bloomers or knickerbockers by She must nees, the Spaniards encourage and aid the bers. Two of the party wore over their “bloomers.” They Chicagoans, and felt a Miss Bunker, remove their so at the they were seized by some of the most ljamazonianish of the members and strip- ped down to their bloomers. The modesty-protecting skirts were torn off and they were left exposed to view in thetr unprotected bloomerishness. Now, this was an unprecedented pre- ceeding end may get into the courts. ‘The Club authorities might have refused to let the skirted members ride, or might have expelled them from the Club. But to lay violent hands on them and to oreibly tear off their skirts was an sault and battery for which the law may hold thetr assailants to account. Besides, how could the Club members have known the condition of the skirt- | wearers’ bloomers underneath theskirts? How could they tell whether the par- Ulally concealed bloomers were tn thorough repair? Certainly the forcible |selzure of the skirte in public was a rost “unique proceeding. ‘This head- “The Police Case Falls. ne comment on the outcome of the Henry inquest is tnaccurate, The fact is that the police failed to have a care.

The play, It will be remembered, wae adapted by Pierre Courcelles from Dumas's novel, and was produced with great success at the Porte St. Martin, in Paris, by M. Barton. ‘The disposal of the play for America was placed in the hands of Miss Elizabeth Marbury. Miss Ma. bury, who {8 a hustler-ess, soon foun @ woman willing to play Marie Antol- nette. That woman was Mrs. Potter. 80 Miss Marbury pald to Messrs. Cour- celles and Berlon the cozy little sum of $1,500 asa retainer, That, one would naturally think, ended the case for Cour-| celles, the adapter. But It didn’t. Not @ bit of It. It now appears that Miss Maude Harrison, who is golng a-siar- ring next season, coveted “La Collier de la Reine,” and asked Miss Lote Ful- ler to secure it for her, she not know- ing, of course, that Mrs. Potter already had the plece. Miss Fuller received a letter from Courcelies, which, {t ap- pears, has been read in this city, to the effect that he would make @ new ver- sion of “Le Collier de la Reine" for ber, and would guarantee that it should be much better than the one seen at the Porte St. Martin, Miss Harrison, tt 1s claimed, put up the sum of $2,500, which was forwarded to Courceiles and re- ceived by him. Of course, when she heard of the Potter-Bellew acquisition, she was furtous, Indignant messages were exchanged between Paris and New York, and Miss Harrison, it 13 sald, called upon Supt. Byrnes, and induced that official to communicate with the Prefect de Police in Paris. By dint of this move, $2,300 was returned, Cour- celles retaining $200, which he claimed for the expenses of cabling. The whole affair was kept quiet, but the above facts were vouched for yesterday. Of course, anybody can make an adapta- tion of Dumas'a novel, which is now public property, but imagine Paul Pot- ter offering a new and better version of “Trilby" to a manager other than A. M. Palmer. That ts pretty nearly a paral- lei case. ee 8 “Just think of my hustling around and looking up engagements,” said Mrs, Yeamane, yesterday, “but that's just what I am doing now, and It's quite new to me, | axsure you, I couldn't pos- eibly fo with Harrigan next season.

Am rry to leave Harrigan? No, I am not,” declared Mrs. Yeamans bridiing. “I shal! be heartily glad of the change. T look forward to lt, and there you are."
