Entered at the Post-OfMice at New York as Second-Class Mail Matter. VOLUME 42... ———————————————— = THE UNEARTHING OF “AL” ADAMS. Jn estimating the value of Capt. Goddard's services to the city !n the @ecovery ana suppression of “policy,” bear in mind that he has never oc- cupfed official position and that he has carried on his very able work of the last ten years as a private citizen—always in antagonism to the sentiment of Police Headquarters and sometimes against the active interposition of ob- stacles by the powers that deal in pulls. What he might have achieved with the machinery of the Police Department at his command would be profitable to speculate upon. z) There are certain romantic features to Goddard's work on the east side. He left college a delicate, shy youth, with a taste for books and the posses- sion of a fortune ample to permit the indulgence of a wealthy leisure, After @ brief experience in business and club I!fe he took up bachelor quarters ina region where few but “settlement” workers penctrate, and quietly at first end then with admirable vigor began the prosecution of a relentless war on ‘the policy sharks whose wholly unfair game swindles the very poor and their children out of their small means. Hs achtevement in procuring the ar- Test of “Al Adams and other protected policy dealers is the culmination of a series of important pubic services all the more creditable because of the GiMculties that impeded their performance While accomplishing these results in the interest of decency Capt. God- Gard has guined a rarely intimate and familfar acquaintance with east side social conditions.

B, Spaulding, who died suddenly at a Broadway bath establishment, ‘49 not the first man to lose his Hfe by ‘mprudently taking a Turkish bath ‘when his system was not !n a condition to stand the severe alternate shocks ‘of heat and cold whioh euch a bath necessitates. It is not the fault of this etyle of bath that Spaulding is dead. Men die in the plain porcelain or tin tubs of thelr own homes, as the news columns report, and last summer there ‘was a formidabie list of fatalities along the Jersey coast among bathers who had plunged into the surf when overheated or too soon after a hearty meal. The fault Mes in the reckless confidence in their physical health which 1s felt by persons who remain blind to nature's warnings. A portly woman of apoplectio tendencies who, perspiring and with flushed face, enters the ehilly waters of the ocean, invites the fatal consequences that are almdést certain to ensue, and a tired man of past middle life taking a warm bath Just before a hearty dinner renders himself liable to an equally disastrous result. Spaulding had complained of Indigestion and an accompanying faintness which et!mulants had faile? to allay. A little saving common aense would have averted his fatal folly. Is thore any more cleansing or more generally satisfactory bath for a man than a brief washing with warm water before breakfast? If this is followed by a eponging in cold water to close the pores, the bather ‘nds Himself alert and vigorous for the day's work and Immune against colds. Cold baths are not cleansing, and for those who are not robust they stimu- late the system to a point where a few hours later partial collapse may follow. “You lost $10 in last night's poker game, yet I heard you boast you were $10 ahkea “Yes; after tho game I borrowed $9 from o eof the winners.” THE ATHLETIC YOUTH’S SWEATER. Most people will agree with Mrs, Martha Foote Crow that athlet ‘sweaters are not objects of masculine beauty or neatness. They will Iike- wise be curious to observe the outcome of her recommendation to the young women students of the Northwestern University at Chicago to refuse to appear in public with a youth who persists in wearing one of these un- seemly garments. If the girls follow this cdvice it will be up to the boys to decide whether they will give up the objectionable costume or abandon the favor they have won in co-eds’ eyes. A learned Chicago professor recently proved that shirt bosoms and @weaters and such articles of attire are emasculate survivals of the steel breastplates and culrasses of a ruder age. So it would appear that a young athlete's affection for sweaters !s not an affectation but an Inherent and hereditary love for armor, the spots and stains of the arena on them, which he cherishes, reproducing the dents that were the glory of the knights of old. Mars once left off his armor to please Venus, Wut it is asking a great deal of ‘sin @ modern college youth to emulate the classical example. “Count Spaghett! wanted Miss Gotrox to elope w him, but her father bought him off." “He became a cash dis-count, then’ Congressman Werks says that the “refined, handsome ladies from Vas- sar and other colleges” who went to the Philippines to teach ¢he natives bave suffered disheartening privations and tn some cases thelr ves have been in danger. Most persons will agree with him that they ought to come home. Women of this type are the finest flower of American elvtlization, and they should not be permitted to waste thelr fragrance on the Filipinos oan soldier is a good enough schoolmaster for the Filipino intellect in its present state of development. .
