TROOPS AT THE MINES. ‘The operators have said that with proper protection assured them they could reopen the mines. Gov. Stone action yesterday in ordering the entire State militia to the mining districts assures them of this protection ant we shall now look to them to redeem their promises— not confidently and indced with a xood deal of scepti- eism as to their inclination or ability to do so. 1 But the opportunity they have professed to wish for ismow theirs and it {s for them to make a satisfactory use‘of it. Then we shall know whether they are in the right or Mr. Mitchell, who relterates his assertion that no certificated miner will return to work except as his union’ returns “even if they call ont all the troops in the United States.” ‘The temperate view taken by the strikers of the throwing of the entire National Guard ‘nto the anthra- elte region !s voiced by President T. D. Nichols, of Dis- trict No. 1, who says: “If the troops are not used for any unlawful purpose their presence in the coal flelds can- not do us any harm.” Incidentally they will insure the union protection against the odfum of the lawless deeds committed in its name by the maliciously idle who are to this great army of strikers what camp followers are to a regular army. The only danger lies in the impulsive action of some subaltern officer dressed in a little brief authority and filled with a consequent self-tmportance, It is from his kind that outbreaks usually proceed. Whe Tariff as a Tax.—Mr. Morgan's gift of 60,000 tons of coal to the poor will pay an import duty of $37,000. A nice Mttle concrete example of tariff processes. NEEDLESS FEARS. Republican party leaders are growing apprehensive of the effect on the State and Congressional tickets of the continuance of the coal strike. As one of them sald " yesterday: “We may proclaim that the strike is not a political matter; that the Republicans are in no way re- sponsible for it, and that the Republican National and State administrations are powerless to afford any relief; but arguments won't count for much with people who are suffering from co)d.” But in indulging their fears are they not reckoning without the assistance given them by Senator Hill's Democratic platform plank advocating the National own- | ership and operation of the anthracite mines? This ‘“de- lusive plan to catch the votes of those whose ignorance is only exceeded by thelr indignation” is likely to do {| more than offset any loss of Republican votes, A Difference in Men.—A Duluth man who killed himself recently left o note saying: “I have just found out what an ass I am.” Some persons only begin life when they make that discovery. ANOTHER MILITARY MAN. Another military man in the Police Department, a captain this time added to tho parterre of shoulder ministration by the appointment of retired army officers | to be headg of departments and bureaus it was argued | that a soldier, especially one on the retired list, ought | to make a superior official because of being habituated to military discipline, army methods, &c. In street clean- ing the prediction has held good; Woodbury is in many respects a worthy successor of Waring. But as a police official, after nearly a year of Part- ridge and Thurston, we have begun to have our doubts ' and what seemed so sure !s now not at all certain, There | are those, indeed, who, remembering Byrnes and his pre- decessore, are beginning to belleve that a civilian may do better than an army man as the executive head of New York's great criminal bureau. It is this spirit of | doubt which leads one to a somewhat critical view of 1 tho new appointee, Capt. Alexander R. Piper. He, too, is i on the retired Ist, but younger than his predecessor, which fs to his advantage. His army record is most creditable. But will he “sive up" to his new job? In an Inter- view yesterday Capt. Piper said that his policy will be “that of his chief first, last and all the time.” A word | well said and soldierly, but one pronouncing the death warrant of his @fficiency in office, WOMEN’S BANKS, A new woman's bank, opened in Thirty-fourth street yesterday, ended its first day's business with deposits aggregating $155,000. It seems only a few years since it | was @ difficult and somewhat embarrassing matter for a woman to secure bank accommodations. Now she ts} tempted by lures of handsomely furnished rooms, pretty | stationery, new styles in -checkbooks, so important has her. patronage become to hanks that make a specialty | of it. » . The French woman has always been a financler, the American only recently. With her emancipation has “come an understanding of business affairs the transac- tion of which in a former generation was left to the men folks. The new way is the better by far. SACRED SUNDAY SHOWS. The “sacred concert" for Sunday night amusement- seekers we know. Its inventor gave a new meaning to an old word and to that extent enriched our mother “tongue. But it has remained for another manager to provide a novelty in the matter of Sunday amusements in the form of a “sacred animal show.” Thus the proprietor of the exhibit at St. Nicholas Rink when arraigned before Magistrate Cornell yester- straps there, ie When Mayor Low marked the beginning of his ad- |‘?

By MARTIN GREEN. | When the frost 1s on the gas stove and the Ice {s in the sink, When you hear the windows rattle and the Hght 1s on the blink, When the milkman wildly asks you, while the mercury it plunks, If you want your cream in bottles or will have {t served in chunks; When your rolls come to you solld and you have to break your gruel, And you use the radiator to keep bottled beer cool, Oh, it's then New Yorkers rise from bed so frappeed they can't think, When the frost 1 on the gas stove and the Ice Is In the sink. ‘here's something kind of nipping-like about the atmosphere When the heat of summer's over and the cooling fall 1s here, Of course you miss the sizzle and the gurgle of the steam, And the flicker of the gas log when you want to sit and dream; But there's chance of exercising to make circulation quick When you have to cut your beefsteak with a shovel and a pick, Though you surely miss the sounding of the elevator's clink, When the frost {s on the gas stove and the ce is in the sink, Ther the janitor is humbled and there's anger in his soul Because he has no chance to steal the ‘trusting tenant's coal ‘The master of the household fastens ear muffs to his hat And goes out and scouts for lumber for a fire In the ffai For lights he uses candles and for warmth he uses booze, He'd start to find the North Pole if ‘twere left to him to choose, For It couldn't be much colder up on Greenland's chilly brink When the frost Is on the gas stove and the ice {fs in the sink. JOURNALISI1 IN FORMOSA. Wherever the modern Japanese goes he starts a paper, says Pearson's Weekly. Formosa has been generously blessed in this respect, and Its two dailles are well worth the sub- day charged with violating the Sunday law by giving a performance on Sunday sald by way of excuse: “It is a bacred drama, the scene representing ‘Danie! in the Lions’ Den,’ with Bonivati, one of the tra Daniel.” Perhaps the good done youthful morals by th /structive show would outweigh any harm dealt Puritanic Sabbath. dent.
