You ere going to step dack 260 years and get a passing glimpse of old New York when it was in its infancy. You take a Second avenue car, go uD along the Bowery, through the most squalid part of the city, and finally get off in front of a severe-looking stone building. It is the quarters of the New York Historical Society, at No. 11 Sec- ond avenue. As you open the front door a bell rings very much after the fashion of the alarms on the little @tores in the Ghetto It. You wall upstairs, peeping mei while at oil paintings by famous ma ters, and on the second floor a poli young man, Alex by name, steps for- ward. He !s a sort of an encyclopaedia of New York's history, and accordingly is a much sought after individual. He is kept on the jump from dawn till dark. This is the perlod when the New York Historical Society 1s having {ts own exclusive celebration of the 20th an- niversary of the city’s incorporation, It fs in the form of an exhibit of pictures and old documents, and the affair will Jast until May 2.

The map was indeed a quaint affair. It shows Beekman street as the up- town limit of the old bity. Beyond that everything was a wilderness, Next to the Bradford print was the second oldest engraved map of the city. It was made by Duyckinck in 1715. Both ‘™Aps were presented to the society by John Pintard,*the founder of the or- ganization. Near the two maps a few scraps of Jead attract attention. They are the fragments of the equestrian statue of George III., which was pulled down by the patriots and most of\it made into bullets, The leaden tadi of the horse upon which the Image of the haughty King held forth ts the only portion of the relics showing any form, The other bits of metal still have faint traces of gilt on them. One fragment seems to be part of a nose—whether of George's or the horse's is a question nqt yet de- termined—and another resembles a frag- ment of qn epaulet. These relics are the especial pets of Alex.

BRIDGEPORT, May 2.—It ts report- ed here to-day phat the Conneoticut Rail- way and Lighting Company has em- ployed about sixty-five women to assist in the effort to break the strike on its trolley lines, One of the principal troubles has been to induce the women of Bridgeport to ride in the cars operated by atrike- breakers. On the cars being run to- day, however, there are women—three to six—on each car.’ But it Is observed that these young women are strangers in the clty and do nothing but cide up and down in the cars, The strikers have understood that these young women were brought here from Now York City and neighboring towns to cide in the cars and thus act as decoys \to attract the women of Bridgeport. to the cars.
