In one case a little tot, two years old, was struok by one of the murderous cars and crushed beneath the forward part, which had to be raised before the mangied remains could be taken out. The little one was crossing the street opposite her parents’ residence, in com- pany with her cousin, twelve yeurn old, who only just saved her own life by Jumping back. The mother of the vic- tim sat at the window watching the children and was an eye-witness of the cruel slaughter. It is said the fatal car was rushing downtown at a high rate of speed, and that the fender it carried only served to rag the little body under the car and to crush out its life, In the other case, John J. well-known contractor and was the victim. Read, a politician, He was driving in a buggy, and a trolley car ran into the vehicle as it was crossing Elghty-sixth street, Mr. Read was thrown out vio- lently, head first, and the buggy was demolished. The unfortunate man wa: dead before the doctor arrived. In both cases the motormen and con- ductors have been arrested. The prob- ability is that their examination will be the usual sham. Is the trolley death list to go on in- creasing?

The jury in the West Broadway Slaughter inquest visited the ruins of the collapsed building yesterday, They Were furnished with occular demonstra- tion of the facts already impressed upon them by evidence, that criminal care- lessness, greed, dishonesty and reckless isregard of human life caused the @eaths of the workmen crushed beneath the ruins and spread sorrow and suffer ing among so many bereaved families, There before their eyes was the rot- ten, insecure foundation, There w the broken stone under the iron pillar, There was the insufficient and worth- loss cement. There was the old ceas- pool on the edze of which the column rested. There were the positive proofs that everywhere the specifications were disregarded and safty risked for the sake of increased profits. Enough was seen to satisfy the jury that not any single individual but every person implicated in the crime should pay the penasty of the law. Exemplary punishment is needed, not alone in Justice to the victims and their families, but tor the pro.ection of every laboring man who is at the mercy of a grasping owner or of an unprincipled contractor. “Make way for me! oner,” says Hoeber. “I am Roosevelt!

There are boys of nine all over this land who can write letters that are perfect as to dictation and penman- ship. Our public schools are full of such products, The Sick Babies’ Fund column every day contains letters from nine and eight year olds, that Alfonso could not duplicate if he tied his eyes in sailor knots and tore his brain into Kite-tails trying to do it. Being a king may be a soft snap, but it doesn't make a boy's think-tank any wider or deeper than !f he were only a common “newsy" or a bootblack. School Trustee Haight, of the Seven- teenth Werd, is of opinion that a law might be passed prohibiting women from riding bicycles and preventing men riding them on Sunday, On a recent visit to Greenwich, Conn, Mr, Halght “seen” a host of Sunday riders passing the very door of the church he attended. He holds that “if them bicyclers was not rkiing on Sunday they would be In church." Ergo, bicycling ta demoralta- ing.

A LESSON “But I have an {dea.” ‘This versatility in so’ old a pen war- rior is astonishing, There is nothing like it in recent literary history except | the turning away of Du Maurler from the ripe attraction of Mrs, Cinahue Brown to throw himself at the feet of Trilby in “the altogether.” Mr. Dana has gone hardly as fur as this. While his neg about “luxurious harems" and the “nightly darkness” of “kisses with- out love" go far he stili draws the line very much this side of ‘the altogether.” In this the poet ts much to be com- mended. It takes strength and force of character to resist being carried away by the mad current bearing such de- cadents ag Mallarme, Verlaine and the chap-book chirpers of Chicago. There 1s something, it Is true, of the characteristics of that to which Max Nordau has given the name “degener- acy,” In the second verse of his linger- ingly wrought “Beauty.” It would be unfair to make this comment without giving all readers opportunity to judge ite justness. Here are the lines: “If perhaps thou hast not hastened, Even to a rendeavous of love; If thy heart has not been kept allve By the tardy imagination; Meeting with her, thou art confounded; Suddenly halting, without willing it, And worshipping reverentlally Before holy beauty.” Mr. Dana calls all his poems ‘‘transla- tions.” His modesty travels ahead of truth, ‘The Irish poet, Davis, la- beded many of his most stirring works “From the Coptic,” or “From the Greek.” Fitzgerald, lately dead, the finest artificer in English of our day, sald his poems were from Omar Khyam, tho Persian, So Dana says his are from Pushkin, the Russian, ‘This may be true, but like Davis and Fits- gerald, the warmth, the passion, the heart of fire is Dana's own, That these are not translations is further shown by the undertone here and there of the American spirit. Dvorak, the composer of much up-to- date music, gives it as his belief that when the United States comes to have its own school of music its basis will be the simple melodies of tho Southern negro, Evidently the poet has come under the same influence. He begins his poem, “The Prophet," with this powerful sweep. “Tormented by thirat of the spirit, I was dragging myself through a gloomy desert, When a six-winged seraph At the cross-roads appeared to me.” Here, unconsciously, he has put into splendid verse the wel}-known African Methodist Episcopal hymn: “Angels, meet me at de cross-roads, meet me."" We repeat that this Is unconscious, 1° must be so. Never would any one be- Neve that Mr. Dana, the poet, could be falne to Mr. Dana, the editor. He could not spend long hours In public Ibrarles going through old ency-lopaedias to prove that Grover Cleveland's essay on the coal and fron resources of the State of Georgia, was deliberate paraphrase “Let me cheap, dress material: " mind a love of the blue.
