SURRENDER, District-Attorney Jerome's positive assertion that he conld not get evidence ogainst Cantleld’s «7 house without the expenditure of a thousand dollars, | and that the Comptroller would not approve the expen- fiiture is the most melancholy confession of impotence in the whole of the feeble anu-gambling campulgn It is a complete and unconditional surrender to the gam bling enemy and¥an invitation to the whole fraternity to “open up” and enjoy the hospitality of a city which can- oot interfere with then without laying itself open to the imputation of malice and persecution For that is what tt amounts to. When the city’s official prosecutor of crime declares that an open, !m- pudent, habitual and notorious deflance of the law may go on indefinitely without check or hindrance or inter- ference on the part of the authorities, and that it is not in their power to punish the offender and to break up tis nefarious traffic the law is no longer supreme. Crime | ‘s supreme, Authority admits it, and the gamblers koow it.

In his interesting testimony in the Northern Seeurt- case Mr. J. Plerpont Morgan was asked the question “What do you mean by a community of interests’ | His answer was | “It means a number of men who own property to do what they like with it.” Further explanation of Mr. Morgan's meaning {s fur- nished by the present condition of the dreased-beef in- dustry of the country. This vast and |mportant interest, vitally affecting the health and the welfare of the whole people, is a property owned by a number of men to do what they like with it The number of men is only four; ‘they constitute what is known as the Heef Trust, and what they like to| do with their property is to put up the price of beef and mutton to figures which convert a necessity of life into @ luxury for the‘rich, thereby adding $10,000,000 a year to the profits of their “property This is a costly and painful object lesson on the meaning of “a community of interests.” his son.

Wiillam Bramwell, leading man at the Murray Hill, is a prime favorite with the denizens of the east sie. He was bora in New York, and ta the son of a Methodist clergyman. He was educated at the Rochester University, studied theology. study of law and was admitted to the bar, But in the actor's own words, “another volce from within was per- tently calling,” and a little later he made his stage debut in Washington as leading man with Robert Dowting tn a Greak play. This ie his second season at the Murray Hilt . And now we fearn that the Goodwine are to follow the example set by the Sotherns and will etar separately after next season. Maxine Biliott has such faith in Clyde Fitch as a@ theateical tailor that she cannot resist the temp- tation to de fMted with a character by this remarkably successful gentleman before he loses his knack. So Nathaniel, Jr, will have to find a new leading lady and Maxine will know the joy of having all the big type to herself.

The car war crowded, of course, and half the passengers were doing gymnastic work with the elusive straps above them.

A youthful hat crowned her yellow locks, and innumerable chiffon ruffiles velled a throat ‘which might have been fair and round, but—that, anyway, Was a matter of opinion.

But the words had scarcely left her lips when two bird: lke hands were on her shoulders and she was pushed back into her seat. “What do you mean by offering me a seat, you insulting creature?" demanded the angry voice. “‘You are old enough to be my mother!” But the lady, seemingly unruMed by the clutch upoh her plump shoulders, answered. “I have no doubt that 1i kept me in my seat all The other fell back with hysterical apologies; but she said: “Oh, never mind.
