The GROAOWAY’S REVOLT. ‘ There are prospects of a new subway wn Broadway, Mnk joining Union Square with Forty- nd street, and the impressive sight Is seen of a long of merenntile firms uniting in self-defense against he invasion of the contractor with as much vigor and pinun as if he were an armed depredator, Such is the| ¢ i reputation he bas acquired on Fourth avenue and on upper Broadway. FE Ave theiyTears warranted? Here is the head of this| « great ongincering underiaking promising the city of- ¢ ficials that in the construction of the tunnel from City Hall td the Battery the street surface will be left undis-| turbed snd that there will be no Interruption to busi- ners or impediment to street traffic. Why, then, do the merchants antic!pate trouble wh they-should infer from Mr. Belmont’s published plins | that ‘hey will suffer no detriment from the work of the contractor? Is it because they attach mom importance to the past performances than to present promises’? Is ft because they are profiling by the experi e of the tradesmen along the line of the ofiginal subway, who found thelr custom“diverted elsewhore and their busi- news in some cases ruined because of the tora up and Dlockaded streets? In view of what has happened the Broads chants are not to be blamed for induiging in apprehppsion and tn fearing the contractor eve he comes hearing persuasive promises. $2S\d0OO8 223.9 WED IN THE LIONS’ DEN.

The shrinking brides will! almost he able to feel the hot breath of the monarch ofthe jungle on their brows, but their bridegrooms | will be there with them and they will not be afraid.) Love, as the ancients knew, quells even lions, and per- haps the lionesses will be too interested in the cere- mony to roar. Nevertheless, it will be an exhibiifon of bravery wel! worth the price of admission, and all visitors to the show that evening will have the advantage of an extra performance for their money. There is no qnestion of | ‘ the courage in these young hearts. But a more interesting consideration is the courage they will exhibit as they encounter the minor tests and triats of mgrried lite. Are the brides going 10 put up a| pitifui mouth at the first quarrel? Are y going to pout or seck refuge in tears or will they Ave about it? ‘Will Nellie be nice to Jack the night he comes home ‘a nh tho blac » 4 4 Aixy y ie stake pee tea? there may be a worse| . ee eer eee see 5 Automobiling in the Aretios, JmMobile may seem at first vi polar trip in an auto to Involve an element of ‘i car?
