That agreement included the payment to the Morgan house of 82,300,000 interest charges on the loan of $170,000,000 made to the Interborough by J. P.

HE right of a newsboy to sell papers on the street may not deeply involve the fortunes of the country, but this city 1s glad to see it upheld, Judge Mulqueen in Special Sessions made short work of the, decision of a City Magistrate who fined a newsboy $25 with un alter- native of fifteen days in jail for selling papers on the sidewalk at Thirty-second Street and Broadway near a newsstand which the boy! himself had formerly owned. The stand is algngside the railing around the Greeley statue, on ground which the Park Department controls. The former stand owner was ousted because somebody else outbid him for the privilege. He then took his newspapers under. his arm and sold to his old customers from the sidewalk nearby. Whereupon the new stand owner complained that his privileges were being invaded. Representatives of the Park Department twice haled the boy before Magistrate Murphy, who promptly discharged him. | But on his third arrest he was taken before Magistrate House, who! imposed the fine. Judge Mulqueen, deciding the case on appeal, sharply overruled the Magistrate: ) The issue is the right of this newsboy to sell papers on that street and on all the streets of the city without a license, and I find that right is clear and absolute. The learned Magistrate was clearly in error both in failing to respect the decision of Magistrate Murphy and in his disposition of the case. The freedom of the city stree men only hold them in trust for the public, cannot be too thoroughly Judge Mulqueen observes, “the beneficiaries of the trust were the people of the city, who had a vested right to use these thoroughfares as streets.” | In such use the newsboy has every bit as good a claim to be pro- tected as has the millionaire. Mr. MeAneny was re-elevated into journalism. Now City Chamberlain Bruere is to carry his executive ability Into bust ness.

How shall I distinguish the genuine from the imitation; that Bluffers may not deceive me, nor Near-Lovers flatter me?” €: Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Near-Love springeth from the lips, the gushing Wrooklet. But Real Love lurketh in the eyes, as the star's reflection in the silent | pool. | The Near-Lover cometh with the sound of trumpets and the tinkling of jeymbals. He is full of flattertes and protestations. : But the Real Lover cometh as the dawn, silently and slowly. He taketh his TIME. ‘The Near-Lover's talk floweth as the fountain, with grace and spark+ | ling, and much splashing over. But the Real Lover sitteth dumb in thy presence, and twiddleth his thumbs, and shifteth his feet. He can think of nothing to a | ‘The Near-Lovér adorneth thee with pet names.

Tho Near-Lover maketh many “date: He {s always late, and full of excuses. But the Real Lover Is timid lest he bore thee. He calleth ONCE a week, and arriveth always @ half hour too early. ‘The Near-Lover snatcheth thee without warning and seeketh to kiss thy lips at the first opportunity. He is SO sudden! ‘The Real Lover kisseth the tips of thy fingers In fear and trembling. He is SO slow! ‘The Near-Lover taketh thee to showy and expensive places, and talketh poetry and flattery and sentiment. Tho Real Lover leadeth thee to quiet restaurants, and talketh yearn- ingly of furnished flats and a “raise in salary.” ‘The Near-Lover holdeth thine hand beneath the table, while he gazeth about the room at the OTHER women and appraiseth them. But the Real Lover's eyes are glued to thy face. He seeth naught but THEE. and keepeth only half of them. 1 Near-Lover ordereth the dinner with eclat, and devoureth it with delight, He praiseth the wine, and the cook, and the salad, and the music, and the waiter. But the Real Lover forgetteth WHICH course he hath eaten, and when the meal js finished he hath but tasted thereof. |" ‘phe Near-Lover praiseth thy costume, and {s flattered that thy beauty “doeth him credit.” But the Real Lover seeth only the Halo above thy head. He fiddleth with his cuffs and adjusteth bis necktie and wonderetb if HE “will do.” Verily, verily, Near-Love is as champagne, which goeth to a man’s head and filleth him with joy and dizziness. But Real Love is as RELIGION, which goeth to his heart, and robbeth him of all egotism, all savoir fatre, and all vanity! For, NO man can love both Himself and a Woman at the same time!
