It is to be wondered what the thoughts of Barney Dolan, old soldier, were as he took his life in Central Park on the eve of Memorial Day. Were there memorle pmong them of Gettysburg or Chancelloraville, of any _. deed of individual bravery noted by his captain, of the, home-coming after the war and the muster out? An old | soldier occasionally finds himself poor and lagging super- fluous; army life does not inculcate habits of thrift. ‘There was only one cent in Dolan’s pockets, not even two pennies for a dead man’s eyes. Th the thirty-six years since the establishment of the Grand Army of the Republic one hundred and fifty thou- and of its nearly half a million members have joined the great majority. The bent and feeble survivors in the thinned ranks have a short lease of life left. When they ‘re pove who Will decorate their graves? Not the base- ball youths or the golfing men, certainly.

Yesterday was not exactly 9 day of triumph for Dis- triob-Attorney Jerome, The day opened with Mr. Jerome appearing in pereor in the gambling cases before Judge ‘Newburger to ask for a clearing of the calendar of all the 3 @ases, He euggested that the imposition of a light fine in ‘ each case would be sufficient, as he thought the cases were all olf and the prisoners, he believed, were all merely employees. ‘This easy method of law enforcement was only partly suecessful, Mr. Anthony Comstock showed that five of the prisoners were arrested not longer ago than May 2, and Mr, “The” Allen and all those arrested with him declined to accept Mr. Jerome's clemency with a plea of guilty and their cases will have to go over. A second defeat was scored in the very important Herlihy case, which resulted in a mistrial after occupy- Ing the court for more than two weeks.

Coney Island some two weeks ago enthusiastic in praise of the high grade of morality there. “Old Coney 4s all right,” said the Commissioner, ve had a big time see- ing the sights, and everybody I saw seemed to be having lots of fun. The island is thoroughly satisfactory to me.” No resort of a doubtful character, not even MeGurk’s in the days of his strongest pull, ever received so warm an indorsement. Yesterday the Grand Jury of Kings County reported many cases of violation of the law by saloons and dance halls observed by the members, and the foreman ex-| pressed the opinion that ‘the conditions at Coney Island are a stench in the nostrils of honest people.” Which shows that the true Sherlock Holmes does not | ge sleuthing in an open carriage with his route scheduled beforehand. Judge Aspinall pointed out the way when | be directed the jurors to go to Coney individually and see the elephant without disclosing their identity—mean- time regretting that'he could not accompany them because his face was too familiar there. Some of these Jurors must have followed his advice to stay all night if necessary, The moral question involved in this—whether the end justified the means—must be left for domestic @ieoussion in Brooklyn. The point is that the jurors got the evidence they went in search of.
