Ien’t it about time for another such order to go forth from Police Headquarters? Isn’t it about time for the Public Service Commission to recollect ‘that five years ago it warned the street railway companies of the city to fix their worn-out brakes and oil their curves and switches? Ien’t it about time for the Commission to wake up to the fact that the grinding, brain-piercing shrieks that come from the wheels and tracks of these railway lines are the most needless and intolerable noise from which the city suffers to-day, because the companies rend the warning and then proceed to forget it? Ien’t it about time to realize that this and other unnecessary noises in New York thrive on the kind of “suppression” they are now getting? — COURAGE TO CUT THE KNOT. AVING had a dizzy sufficency of the legal acrobatics, automo- bile dashes and countryside riots that regularly attend the of the late inmate of Matteawan, the Canadian au- thorities finally took the fugitive by the scruff of the neck, held him at arm’s length and dropped him over the border. We do not believe the august judicial guardians of the British Empire, including the throne, the Lord Chancellor and the House of Lords, will lose any sleep because somebody in Canada had sense enough to do the right thing and do it quick. It is now up to the United States, beginning with one or two of the same, to chow whether a dangerous lunatic with murder behind him and money surrounding him can evade indefinitely the one place where by every law of safety, justice and common sense he ought per- manently to remain. op MARRIAGE ACCELERATORS IN HOBOKEN. HE quick-ae-you-please-all-the-same-evening-and-nothing-in-the- papers-about-it marriage industry of Hoboken described in The Evening World gives us, as the French say, consid- erably to think. If several Justices of the Peace in Hoboken carry on a discreetly advertised business of lightning despatch marrying with license and minister furnished on the spot and fees to suit, it can only be because there is heavy trade from near by. Although the New Jersey law rquires ten days’ residence and the lapse of twenty-four hours be- tween taking out the marriage license and going through the ceremony, these marriage accelerators find it as easy to persuade a local license clerk td qike liberties with the calendar as it is to get him out of bed for a late evening's job, ness only knows to what extent New Yorkers have taken of these facilities across the river. Somebody should go over and make a digest of the records, In point of interest “Who's Who in New York” may be nowhere compared with “Who's Married in Hoboken.” Gov advantay -+-—____—_ INFLAMMABLE FURNITURE.

That wooden office furniture ie forthwith to be thrown on the dump nobody argues, Nevertheless as surely as wooden cars are already back numbers in every kind of passenger traffic, just eo surely will inflammable furniture disappear from offices during the next generation. The skyscraper and its fire problema are fast settling that, Why should thousands of human beings depend for safety on elevators and stairways if a building can be so constructed and fur- niehed that no fire can spread? We have painfully worked out schemes of fireproof construction. We begin to understand that we must have fireproof furnishings. Why atop, indeed, until the day when a blaze in a room on the fiftieth floor of a skyscraper shall cause little more alarm than a match burning on the top of a stone post? —$_$_______.
