LAY ALL THE TROUBLE MAKING TO SEMANSKY. Bemansky some time ago had trouble fn another company, and was put on trial before Deputy Commissioner G. W. Olvany. He employed counsel and escaped that time with a transfer to No, 99, From that time on mysterious tips reached headquarters regarding various of the men of No. %. Once Semansky was overheard in lephone booth re- porting to a headquarters man high in authority something to the effect that Capt. Trainer was in ‘Hoag’s saloon ‘on the corner,” when he was supposed to be on duty in the engine house. On two other occasions two of the men were haled to headquarters on “trumped up" charges, as they call them, They “beat" these charges, but {t cost a lot of time and trouble and no- body knew at what moment he would be called on to face another charge. Finally Commisstoner Johnson got a etraight tip and preferred charges against Semansky, but some of the men of Truck No, 39, “who were not real hilkennies at all, at all," got cold feet ‘and diin't tell what they knew, so the charges failed. Tt was then, however, that Commi sioner Johnson decided to scatter t Cats for the benefit of the whole force, whieh resolve culminated in his sweep- ing order. Semansky's transfer was to old En- gine Company No. 17, down in Ludlow street, whose members chief motto ts, “Damn @ coward and @ squealer.” The | old men still left in No. said to-day breaths that they full, me rough-h ing down at No. 17 before long.” ‘Ol hate to think what they'll him," said one, fervently, but a peace- ful and childlike smile spread all over his map of old Erin as he said tt. ‘There wesn't any scrapping going on in old Truck House No. 89 to-day.

Matrimonial Problem Solved By Church Fair Lotteries Philadelphia Girl Prize Win- ner of Prospective Hus- band May Be an Advance Agent of the Great Day Dreamed Of by Sex Re- formers. Then Nobody Will Love and Everybody Will Marry According to Form- ula~--As Much Chance o1 Happiness as it She Had Taken a Man of Her Own Choice. By Nixola Greeley-Smith. “Marriage is a lot- tery” has been re- marked by all hold- ers of losing nmum- bers since the first woman too’ « lonK chance on the first man; but It re. mained for two young women of Philadelphia to real- ize the full truth of the antiquated Xte4 operation concern. a ing matrimony, For Miss Catharine Flanagan and Miss Mary Doyle, holders of 19-cent tickets in two church fair lotteries, drawn on Satur- day in the Quaker City, learned when the winning numbers were proclaimed that the prize in each case was 4 blus |ing but by no means reluctant orido- | groom, and that each had won a prize. Shades of Willlam Penn, what has come over the City of Brotherly Love? While Paris, London and New York, that metropolitan trinity ef sophistica- discuss tentatively and timidly UC national and trial marriages, Philadel- phia puts forth and demonstrates a brand new variety of matrimony! ‘The selection of # husband, or by the drawing of saatens fs really the most advanced sort of eugenics, for under the aus- pices a for the benefit of a church @ but the most perfect specimens could be selected as prizes, and the great day dreamed of by sex reformers, when nobody will love and everybody will marry ®ocording to formula, will be near at hand. |ONE REFUSES THE PRIZE, BUT’ THE OTHER CONSENT! In the case of the two Philadelphia irls, one, with old-fashioned weakness, Tefursd the prize she had won on the ground that she didn't like his looks and that she “didn't want a ten-cent husbend anyhow." The other agreed to accept her lottery husband at the end of a year. And !f she 1s the average sentimental young woman she stands fair @ chance of married happiness as if she had taken the man of her own free cholce for the color of his eyes or the wave in his hair. For, taken as a whole, it 1s doubtful if the American marriage for love has pald more divi- dends of happiness than the European marriage of conventence. And it may be that marriage by lottery ts the solu- tion of the whole problem. More and moro doctors disagree as to what 1s the matter with matrimony, though nearly all seem to be decided that something 1s wrong. Doctors of divinity, for instance, hold that the toned form of indissoluble still the right sort, and that the t!mes and the people aro out of Joint because men and women no foa- ger accept it, nor any other form of eternal torture. Doctors of philosophy and soctal ethics, like Bernard Shaw, waste a great deal of energy and many fine phrases tn lilting against the wind- mill of established matrimony, but in the end the windmill gets them all, for the rm pt to human circumstances and conditions than any substitute which has bean suggested for ft, PERHAPS A HASTY PLUNGE MAY MAKE FOR HAPPINESS. It seems to be there is a type of irresponsible person to whom the new {dea of marriage by lottery should ap- peal tremendously. For while preserv- ing all the honor and dignity of the old form of marriage it offers the desper- ate adventure of a plunge into the unconventional and unknown, Un- doubtedly it would be just as wise and foreseeing to marry aS soon as prize and prize winner meet as to contract a life-long partnership after six weeks’ casual acquaintanco at a summer re- | sort. Another advantage of mariage by lot- tery would be that the wife or husband wouldn't have to waste any time after marriage wondering whether she or he had won a prize, There could be no doubt about tt. For to domesticate a paragon on whom several hundred other persons had taken chances would constitute @ permanent guarantee of the desirability of the acquired object, ‘A really happy marriage {3 no mor the result of chance than a careful worked out problem in mathen It 1s the definite result of a sane choice and a sane domostic life, But for those who prefer not to thin especlally when they fecl—the lotiery marriage may present what ! ually termed a long-sought opp. —_———— John H.

Two automodiies at differert places along the Far Rockaway Boulevard to-day so badly frightened « horse at- tached to a buggy that the anima! ran away, turned over the rig and injured the man and woman who were in It. In neither case did the occupants of the automobtle render ald or attempt in any way to ascertain whether serious injury had been done. The police are now trying to locate the machine, but they have little chance be- cause the driver of the rig was #0 en. grossed in trying to check the horse that he did not pay attention to the number on the autos. . The rig was owned by ‘Thomas Finu: can of Broadway, Inwood. He was driv- ing with his wife when the first auto whizzed by the horse became frightened and started to run. Finucan was getting the animal under control when ® second auto came along and again the horse bolted. It ran along for a block and then turned onto Park avenue. It kept on running until it came to a clump of woods, when {t turned off the road and ran into a large tree, hurling both Finu- can struck against the tree and was ren- dered unconscious, but his wife, although badly shaken up and frightened was not injured, She went to her husbande afd and was trying to revive him. Willlam A. Rein- hart came along in his auto and placed Finucan in the machine and took him to the office of Dr. A. H. Beman, where he was revived. He refused to o to the hospital, and was removed to his home in a carriage. Th horse was caught about further on, at Cedarhurst, j sseatie at POLICE CAPTAIN FLOOD'S DAUGHTER WEDS TO-NIGHT.

Mayor Gaynor has removed Charies B. Page of Manhattan and James Kane of Brooklyn as members of the Board of Elections, The salary of the ofMfce is $5,000 a year. Mr. Page received his noe tice of removal last night. Simflar no- tice was served to-day on Mr. Kane. At the Mayor's office it was stated that no official explanatton would be given, On Jan, 1 last the Mayor appointed J. Grattan McMahon of Brooklyn as suc- cessor to Kane, although the Kings County Democratic organti lon had in compliance with the law indorsed | Kane for the Job. He had served as a Commiasioner of Elections four years prior to that time, It 1s required by law that the dominant political organt- vations shall meet and recommend, and the Mayor shall accept and appoint one of those named for the office. Kane app to the courte. The Court of Appeal: ned his conten- tion that he was still a Commissioner of Blections, the Mayor having ignored the recommendation of his party in appointing McMahon. To make good his case Kane has regularly been re- porting at the Bureau of Blections, ‘he decision of the Court of Appeals also applied to the case of Page, who 3 not the chotce of the New York County Republican organization. In ignoring the recommendation of the local Republican organisation, May- or Gaynor appointed William | Leary who, with Smith, his Republilean col- league of Brooklyn, also appointed by layor, remain as yet undisturbed. If to be ousted some one who is erested probably will have to institute quo warranto proceedings or the Gov- ernor may remove for cause. In oMfcial- ly removing Pago and Kane to-day the Mayor unwittnigly or otherwise has rec- ognized that the two men have deen in official capacity since Jan. 1, when their successors were appointed. ‘This means that they may draw salary from Jan. 1 to date. It {s anticipated that their next move will be to sue for reinstatement in vie! ‘This will throw the whole question into the courts, when the legality of the ac- tion of the Mayor in icnoring the seleo- tions of the two dominant parties will be finally decided.
