The slogan is “come one, come City Hall and other political co- fteries, on the other hand, will insist that the red letter event of Yonkers's Golden Jubilee was the official ban- jquet last night in the new Broadway home of La Rabida Council, Knights ‘of Columbus, with Mayor Walter M. Taussig presiding and Lieut-Gov Jeremiah Wood on hand to express ‘the good wishes of the State of New ‘York. They said in the K. C. Club House that everybody who is anybody in ‘Yonkers was present in the basement banquet hall with his wife and ‘aughters. Conductor Victor Reb- ‘mann brought along the High School ‘Orchestra; Conductor Arthur Witte was there with the H, 8. Glee Club Those who attended the Terrace City's party from Manhattan were not permitted to forget for one minute that Yonkers is growing faster than any community for miles around.

By Roger-Batchelder. The resignation of Gen. Leonard Wood, Governor-General of the Phitl- ippines, would be keenly regretted by the natives of the islands, despite the fact that they were somewhat disap- pointed by his report on independ- according to Bishop Charles Edward Lock, head of the Methodist- Episcopal Island Diocese, who has just reached the Prince George after a trip from Manila via Australia and New Zealand. “They want Gen, Wood to remain with them for many years to come," the Bishop averred, ‘‘for they believe in him implicitly. The report recom- mending that independence be not granted at this time was a blow, but ence, they undetstood it was written in good faith. “The Filipinos have appreciated emphatically the appointment of a man of Gen. Wood's.standing to the post of Governor-General. Moreover, he has not reverted to the old policy of appointing Americans to lotal posts, but has taken on as many ne- tives as possible, with efficiency as the sole basis for appointment. This has pleased everyone. A FEW FIGURES. Our demon statistician, who has just balanced his figures, reports that 138,897,981 persons came to New York by railroad last year, or more every day than the popu- lation of Cincinnati. Of the 406,- 000 who arrived datly 807,000 were listed as* commuters, leaving 97,000 bona fide “New Yorkers For a Day or Two" for each week day. Traffic is much heavier in summer than in winter, but the hotels, which are boosting New York as a vacation resort, have received reservations which seem to indicate an increased number of summer guests this year, SIX-SHOOTERS, BUT FEW HOLD. UPS. A. L. Davis of Chicago, who arrived at the Martinique last night after a trip to Mexico City, tells us that in that city evéryone totes a six-shooter or two... There are, however, few hold- ups. “It is much like ‘Frisco in the old days,’ he remarked, “when every one was armed and safe from attack ex- cept in the underworld resorts. Mexi- co has no paper money, but the busi- ness men carry any amount of gold on their persons. It is not unusual to see & man carrying a big bag of gold to the bank,” TOURISTS FILL CANADA'S COFFERS, “More and more Americans are coming to Canada and are spending money as never before,"’ related -Har- old Smith of Montreal, at the Pennsyl- vania. ‘‘Montreal’s hotels are packed from the beginning of the season to the end, and the result has been a de- cided business boom in Eastern Can- ada. Tourists spend millions in my city alone.”’ Mr. Smith admitted moist attraction: had a lot to do with it. . CONGO'S DIAMONDS, Conditions in the diamond mining district of the Belgian Congo were never better, according to R. D. Oliver, a mining engineer, who has come t the Pennsylvania from that country, “We have had no period of de- pression,” he explained, “and devel- opment is progressing in the Congo and in Portuguese Angola. There are no labor troubles, for the natives, while extremely ignorant, are man- agable. We employ about 20,000 of them, and although we are increasing the number constantly, there is no trouble in getting all the labor we want. “We do not pretend that our wel- fare work is charity, for it 1s a good Look cool—be cool—look. coal!

Work- ing as missionaries, and furnishing doctorg, nurses and others to do edu- cation work has improved condi- tions materially and has resulted ia increased efficiency.” Though nine-tenths of the people have the idea that cocoa is made in some way from cocoanuts, it really has nothing to do with them,” as- serted Charles @, Barcant, who comes trom Trinidad, the source of much of our cocoa, ‘It is one of the principal Products of the island,” he gent on, “and is prepared for the trade by an intricate process requiring perfect conditions. “New York, Havre and London are now the great cocoa ports of the world. Before the war Hamburg was the largest.” FARTHEST FROM HOME. The “New Yorker for a Day or Two” who is farthest from home to- day is W. J. Proctor, who 4s at the. Pennsylvania. His home town, Mel- bourne, is about 12,000 miles from Broadway. TWO DETECTIVES MENACED BY MOB Crowd Goes to: Aid of Al- leged Drug Peddler but Flees From Cops. Detectives Barry and Metsengehl of the Narcotic Squad kept an appointment at Dover and South Streets last night with Mangad Lopes, a Spaniard, twen- ty-five years old, of No. 164 South Street. He had agreed, they say, to sell opium to them, and as he produced the drug they arrested him, Lopes drew a blackjack and at the same time shouted in Spanish, His out- cry brought a score of men from a near- by poolroom who, armed with bottles and billiard cues, rushed toward the de- tectives. Barry and Meisenzaht knocked Lopes down, drew their revolvers to keep back the mob and blew their police whistles. Several uniformed men responded, at sight of whom the crowd scattered. ‘Lopez, it ts sald, had $1,500 worth of drugs in his pockets and twenty extra cartridges for hie pistol. He was on charges of having nerooties weeds lating the Sullivan law, He Was for- merly cook on a steamship betweerh this port and Havana and the police say he pri an oplum emuggling and vending band. * - ——» 11.
