Tt was not perfect. On the contrary, it was sadly imperfect. The seeds of corruption, the seeds of decay, were in it from the begin- ning. The men who made it so good in so many ways were the very men who also organized and perfected the blackmailing system, including the shameful copartnership between the police and crimi- nal vice. d But at least life and property were safe under “the finest.” And the strong, if corrupt, hands of the leaders of the force re- OX whioh they sat careen and sending the green water splashily over the elde ¢ Then suddenly their cyes met, and he He | knew that.he was not alone tn the dark, ee that she, too, had seen tho light, real or } fgnis fatuus, that had shone upon his arate Fe path.

No. 300 Mulberry street has run the complete gamut—rise, glory, fall. It is time to move—and start afresh. THE TEST OF LEADERSHIP. If this strike comes the great point will be leadership. ‘And ‘ If public sympathy should be with the Steel Trust, there would obviously be no hope for the strikers. The Ss ¢ same causes which set public sympathy would THE LEADE aloof, that would operate more strongly against tho strikers than against the trust. Therefore it is vital to the success of Shaffer’s leadership that against the side of the opposing leader, Morgan. L&ader Shaffer has thus far made only one direct appeal for public support—his “call” to his followers to strike. The effect of that appenl—whether it has “fired the popular heart” and warmed his followers to enthusiasm or has fallen upon indifferent or re- Inctant ears—is the point to study if you wish to got an idea of the silent, scored upon Leader Shaffer’s move?

Nature will make it one by tinting the sky and bidding tho sen roll past. 2 The great bathing-place is a splendid plan. ‘The city needs it and must have it.
