TLE seececeeeeees NO, 18,977 Hoven my Daughter, unto the confession of a Damsel of Babylon, 1: PLEASURE SEEKERS IN PERIL. A RECORD of sixtedn persons killed and thirty-three seriously who hath gone the way of the Turkey Trotters and joined the Tango } Dancers! Harken and be warned! ! Now, in the spring this damsel heard me to cry out against the turkey , trot, and she lifted up her hands, saying: “It is hideous; it Is idiotic! And not all the temptations of St. Anthony | shall lure me to dance it.” Yet, how weak is the flesh and how poor the spirit! For a fortnight | since did this same damsel come unto me beating her breast and cryjng: | “Alas! alas! my Mother, my head is covered with dust and my mouth | is Sited with ashes. For I, THY Daughter, have gone the way of the Doodle- wits and the Lightweights and am become a TURKEY TROTTER! Yes, the EPIDEMIC hath reached me, and I am stricken, . : “Yet, ere thou blightest me with thy scorn, harken unto my words that } thou mayest know the temptations that befell me and the pitfalls that were } | set for me. “Behold, there came unto me a man, saying: “‘Let me TEACH thee thes“One Step,” for it is SO fascinating.’ ” “But I mocked him with my ha-has, crying: “Get thee behind me, Satan! For, whether it be called the “One Step’ or the “Tango” or the “Boston,” the Turkey Trot by ANY name fs as abbor-. rent unto me!’ “And he was confounded ahd went his ways. | “Then there came ubto me another, saying: : | “Go to! Be not a PRUDE! For if thou dost not join the trotters | thou shalt sit among the chaperons and be accounted “passe.” Behold, only the Old Maids are waltzing, and the two step is but a dance for injured in automobile and drowning accidents last Sunday | within the city’s excursion radius shows how increasingly difficult it is for people to amuse themselves on the day of rest without fatalities. Example and warning seem utterly inadequate to keep down the average of death’s toll from swimming and boating. But the shock- ing automobile tragedy at 1 Long Island Railroad crossing near Long Beach in which three men lost their lives and a woman was dan- gerously injured calls atiention anew to the fact that this end of Long Island is « perilous wilderness of grade crossings, and that the grade crossing when unpzotected by a flagman is a menace with which there can be no compromise. ‘Might it not be betier to shut up some of the innumerable Long Island roads which cross the railroad at grade and concentrate traffic upon thoroughfares where improved crossings can be provided or at least constant guard maintained at all hours of the twenty-four? As it is now, driving across Long Island at night is almost as dan- gerous as walking across a railroad yard. po rheumatics.’ : fair is Fusion when it no longer refuses to fuse! “But I shook my head and covered mine ears and would not be moved. ae . ps aalatondlahesd eacatiebasy — “Then there came unto me a WOMAN; and she was filled with gulle | ’ and her tongue dripped poison and persuasion. “And she opened her lips and spake, saying: ~ “‘Oh, thoy Simple One!

NE MILLION DOLLARS is the vstimated cost to taxpayers O of the efforts of Mr. Murphy and Gov. Sulzer to settle which is the boss of the show. Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars have gone for war expenses to date, and last month’s bills and those incurred in future must be met with fresh appropriations by Mr. Murphy’s Legislature. Why so expensive? Will the taxpayers’ million get them their money’s worth in ‘results or is it to be used by the contestants to keep their minions at work grinding knives for the fray? A frank Fe and open showdown on both sides that would settle the issue might be worth the cost. Bat why squander a million merely to prolong a stealthy, waiting fight? —_—_——-4-—______.

In j view of the importance of the ordinance for which The Evening ’ World made its long fight, the Supreme Court refuses to postpone the hearing on the injunctions with which the companies resisted the new law, and Justice Seabury will hear the cases at 11 o'clock to- morrow morning. a The same amazing ignorance and greed which have made these i interests believe that New York of ‘all cities in the world will never pe demand a better taxicab service than they choose to give it, deluded them with the hope that by procrastination and deceit they might still hald on to the privileges they have so long usurped. They are wrong. The city is tired of them, disgusted with them. (tia, Hoot, Mon!
