WATCHING THE GAME AND PLAYING A HAND. HE roar of a fow naval broadsides is heard in the offing, and now and again a mouse-gray battleship with peach-basket military masts is econ lying off Staten Island or ecudding up the Sound. Then we read that a hostile fleet at- tacking the city has been fought off and “sunk,” so that we may rest in the, peaceful assurance that our coasts are defended. Of conree this is all merely on paper, in the notebooks | of the officers playing the war game, and in the records of the Navy Department at Washington. It isn’t very exciting, but the public | naturally takes an interest in these manoeuvres because there is | little else to show for the hundreds of millions of its money invested in a perishable navy, that is always a third or more obsolete. | The subway game comes nearer home, and is going on all the time. There is plenty of excitement here, for the stakes are higher, and the contestants are not playing either for fun or for health. It is a etrangely passive part the city has been taking in this game, considering the strong hand it holds. With all the money it wants to horrow at fonr and one-half per cent., the city could build, equip and operate, if necessary, its own five-borough subway system, with the single fivecent fare throughout and decent accommodation for everybody. This would be winning, hands down. Instead of that, it is whipsawed “damnably,” as Mayor Gaynor now declares, between the desperate Brooklyn Rapid Transit and the Interborough. Rut now the limit has been reached, and both bluffs are called. When the Mayor and the Board of Estimate cry “A plague on both your houses!” the long hold-up must end. With a new deal, work should take the place of wrangling. The city, when it really means Iusinoss, can get down to digging and prove its independence by the unanswerable argument of prompt action. cece fi Riomicnicemeniaies TENEMENTS, HERE AND ABROAD. EW YORK’S permanent exhibit of tenement houses and living apartments is worth crossing the ocean to inspect and compare. So thought Dr. Charles Pranard of Paris, who in his official capacity at home is Deputy Ohief of the Bureau of Assurance and Social Providence.

ATTHIAS, the Alsatian village innkeeper, was miserably poor. He ‘was crushed under @ load of debt. Unless his debts could be patd within a week he would be turned out of his inn; and his wife and his little daughter, Annette, would probably starve. This was the grim future that stared him in the face as he sat moodily by his kitchen fire one Christmas Eve. As he sat there, listening to the, blasts of the tempest that hurled the flying snow against the windows, a chine of sleigh bells was heard. The door was flung open and @ Polish merchant stamped into the room. The Pole was travelling through the country in his sleigh and had stopped for an hour's rest at the inn. While Matthias was serving him with wine the traveller exhibited a money belt, heavy with gold pieces. At once the thought of his own poverty rushed to the innkeeper'’s mind, half crazing him. That night when the Pole left the inn Matthias stealthily followed him. at a lonely spot in the road the innkeeper leaped forward and, with @ diow of an axe, struck the Pole dead. Then he seized the heavy money belt, | threw his victim's body into a nearby limektin and crept back to the inn. 1 . _ Fifteen years passed. The stolen money had put May thias on his feet again. From the moment of his crime everytling he touched had prospered. He became the richest man in the province. He was made Burgomaster of hls village. Any attempt to solve the mystery of the Pole's murder had long since been given up. Matthias was eafe—wealthy—honored— loved. ’ But he never for a moment forgot. The memory of his #in haunted him by day and night. The sound of sleigh bells always brought back the vision of the slain Pole to htm with painful sharpness. And as the years went on he fancied often that he could hear those bells when there was really no sound tn the air. Matthias took every possible precaution to guard against discovery. He even betrothed his daughter, Annette, to Christian, the new police officer of the dis- ‘trict, in order that his future son-in-law, in case of detection, might shield him from the law, One December day Matthias visited the nearby market town on business. | While he was there he went te an exhibition of mesmerism.

For two days he was very tll, Then, gradually, he recovered. Tut his old fear of arrest was redoubled. To guard against such a chance he demanded that Christian and Annette be married at once. He also chose for himself @ remote pedroom in the top of the house, lest he might babble in his sleep about the crime. On the night before the wedding Matthias went late to his A Dream of Attic bedroom. He had drunk heavily—against the doctor's Punishment. orders—and w in @ tremor of nervous excitement.

Even in the dream Matthias denied his guilt, until the Judge brought a mes- merist into court. Then, whtle under hypnotic influence, Matthias confessed.
