HOPE FOR FULTON STREET. he is the answer USTICE BLACKMAR came promptly to the aid of the Fulton J Street Protective League in ite efforte to avert further darken- ing and defacement of Brooklyn's thoroughfare by the B. R. T's third track project. The court grants an injunction against the continuance of the work pending condemnation proceedings in due course. For « long time the Brooklyn Committee of One Hundred tried to stop the scheme by moral muasion, The Committee's pleadings had no effect on the B. R. 'T’. The Protective League has adopted militant methods with Prompt success. The company will now have to proceed legally to condemn and compensate where before it was pushing ruthlesaly ahead, regardless of property rights. Since the real nature of the B. R. T.’s plans became apparent, Property owners have rapidly revoked their consents because of the false representations under which they were procured. ‘The chance ot saving Fulton street ie distinctly brighter. The Public Service Commission now has time to think twice and compel the construction of a eubway extending to « point further trom the Borough centre, where the damage would be less. 4-2 A HAND TO THE NEWSBOYS. LANS to raise $250,000 for a Newsboys’ Club ought to interest any city that believes each generation of citizens oan help to better the next. Nobody who “etarta to earn” begins earlier than the newsboy. | Nobody becomes celf-reliant at tenderer years. Nobody learns the Topes of the city ¢0 soon or so shrewdly. Nobody knows better the ways of the street and the average man in it. Nobody's eyes are more quickly opened to good and bad. Nobody has his faculties 80 speedily sharpened for usefulness or the opposite. As Prof. Giddings, in indorsing the Newsboyw’ Club movement, aye: Newsboys constitute a unique group. Ite members pos- sees to a marked degree the qualities of initiative, independence and courage. Such persons, however, are frequently reckle: extravagant and impatient of authority and may become in an unfavorable ¢nvironment a menace to society, The newsboy’s training peculiarly fits him to become a wide-awake citizen, agile of mind and interest. Gecoment to exercise his nimble wits along aafe and useful lines. Hits From Sharp Wits “stop RUBBERING 3) By Roy L.

That was when Mrs. Hemming gave a house warming dinner in her beautl- ful new home on the North Bide, farther out than we were. It seemed to me that from the very first Jane had determined to put me in a false position as regarded Lucius Hemming; but I know now that she had no such idea; that it was only a natural craving for soctety, for ad- miration, that impelled her actions. At the time I thought it was all caused by her desire for Hemming's society. We at last moved into our home.
