The Kearsarge.
The report of the wrecking of the
famous cruiser Kearsarge, truthfully
saystheNew York Advertiser, will be
received all Over the country where
undiluted loyalty prevails, with pro-
found regret. It will revive once more
the memory of the thrill that vibrated
through every fiber of the national
heart thirty years ago when we heard
that under the eyes of the British, who
had equipped the Alabama, and the
French, who had aided and abetted
her plundering career, she was brought
to bay by the Kearsage and promptly
and indignantly sent to the bottom.
No ship claiming to be American had
ever before been sedulously devoted to
plundering those inferior in strength
and from skulking away from those
able to resist. It was in the nature of
a poetic retribution that, on so nearly
the same stage where Paul Jones in
his single weak ship had desperately
fought and gloriously whipped a British
fleet, this skulking wolf among ships
was cornered by one not superior in
strength, flying the flag the wolf had
so ofton‘sought to humiliate, and suf-
fered the vengeance she had so often
eluded.
The recalling of this culmination of
a marine glory in this tragic way stirs
anew the heartbeat of every honest
American. And every one will hope
that the fact is not so bad as reported——
that the wind and waves will spare her
for what she has done, and allow her
to be saved to our care even as long as
was the no less famous Old Iron‘sides.
' = But, whether she be saved or not,
the 'Kearsargc has left a fame as undy-
ing, and even more worthy its immor-
tality, as that of Nelson’s unfortunate
Victory.
A Head-on Political Collision.
Just at a time when there is an op-
portunity for them to take advantage
of Democratic dissensions and redeem
the state the leaders of the New York
' Republicans appear to be determined
to plunge into a factional quarrel, says
the Washington Post, that will give
the Democratic affair the appearance
of a mere side show. The present diffi-
culty has been brewing for some time
past, but in the past two days it has
come to a head with a bitterness that
even the most sanguine Democrat could
' not have hoped for. The Republican
newspapers in New York are rapidly
taking sides and are dividing with an
evenness that indicates a lively and
lengthy fight. All of this must be very
discouraging to the rank and file of
New York Republicans, but it is a fea-
ture of New York politics that all par-
ties seem to have.
Some time ago there was inaugurated
a movement for the reorganization of
the Republican party in the city of
New York. It was freely charged by
the advocates of reorganization that
the returns from last November’s elec-
tion furnished most conclusive proof
that the party had been betrayed by its
district leaders and that deals with
Tammany and for the benefit of Tam-
many were on in almost every election
district in the city. Upon this showing
the New York Republicans were thor-
oughly aroused and meetings were held
to devise ways and means for a reform-
ation within the party lines. As one of
the results 001. George Bliss was placed
at the head of a committee on reorgan-
ization, and after considerable investi-
gation and hard work Col. Bliss report-
ed plans for the improvement of the
Republican machine.
But it appears that Col. Bliss and his
plans are not to have plain sailing.
Mr. John E. Milholland is another
New York Republican who has plans
and vigor. Mr. Milholland has de-
fyiee'd .a. reorganization of the New
_Yor_kp Republican machine that will
enables": himself and friends to con-
trol,-'athh,is- is. just what, Col. Bliss
. and his. friends were attempting to or-
ganize against. But this is not the
worst feature of Col. Bliss’ predicament.
Mr. Platt is out in an interview indors-
... . . - .
ing the Milh‘olland System of reorgani-
zation, and in turn Mr. Milholland and
Mr. Platt are indorsed by Editor
Whitelaw Reid and the New York Tri-
bune. With such formidable backing
it would seem that the Milholland
scheme of reorganization is bound to
prevail, and the Bliss scheme, which
Mr. Platt pronounces visionary and
impractical, is to be thrust to one side.
' The appearance of ‘Messrs. Platt and
Reid as the opponents of the Bliss re-
organization programme. has very nat-
urally caused a great sensatior, and
there is talk of political deals. It is
alleged that Mr. Platt has promised
Mr. Reid that he shall be the guberna-
torial nominee and that the Milliolland
reorganizition is to be conducted with
that end in view. The Tribune is keep-
ing very quiet on this subject, but the
silence in that quarter is more than
made up for by the other Republican
newspapers, and there are indications
that Editor Reid’s path to the guberna-
torial chair will be no more rosy than
was his effort to reach the Vice Presi-
dency.

Poor Old Number Four.
The Consolidated road could not have
made a very large display of old loco-
motives at the World’s Fair, as did
some of the other roads of the country,
from the fact that their locomotives, as
fast as they became unlit gfor further
repairs, have been sent to the scrap
heap. There is in the yard down by
the Union depot in New Haven, a ma-
chine that shows her age in every fea~
ture. This is No. 4, the oldest machine
that was on the Danbury and N orwalk
railroad when the road was acquired
by the Consolidated road. If one
wishes to see a really old locomotive,
he should view No. 4 before she is bro-
ken up. The edict has gone forth that
the machine must be broken up as the
boiler is so old that it will not pay to
repair her.
The tender has bacn removed and
stripped of the connecting rods and
other parts. The engine that was con-
sidered the highest type of locomotive
construction when it came out of the
great shops of the Rogers Locomotive
company now looks like a very antiqua-
ted, specimen of American railroad
equipment.
The engine as it now stands, says the
Register, weighs about 25 tons, or say
40 tons if it had its tender attached all
coated fora spurt over the road. One
of the’freight moguls recently built for
the company by the Rhode Island Lo-
coaled and watered, weighs about 110
tons,and this is the most practical com-
parison of the old and the new that can
be given. The freight mogul that can
speed along the road with 40 loaded
freight cars is nearly three times as
heavy as old No. 4. If No. 4 was at-
tached to such a train she could not
start it on a level track, say nothing of
hauling it. No. 4 has five foot drivers,
=while the new passenger engines of the
road have drivers over 6% feet, and 999
of the New York Central are propelled
by wheels of 7% feet. With all the im-
perfections of construction as compared
with the handsome 251, No. 4 has been
a famous engine of her day,and has run
on pretty fast time on the down grades of
the Danbury & Norwalk railroad. She
has hauled freight trains, passenger
trains, and excursion trains loaded with
gay people bent on a pleasant holiday,
and even construction trains, and per-
formed her duty wherever her lot was
cas . .

ON THE AVENUE.
In these hard times how much more
than ever one appreciates the practical
friendship that takes a fellow man or
woman by the hand and says, “I’ll stick
by you.” We are never so independ-
ent that we can say we do not care for
the help of another, for one never
knows when the time may come when
that help will be most acceptable.
Just about this time in the yeara
woman begins to feel very shabby:
Her winter clothes are half worn and
it is too soon to order spring ones.
Therefore she goes about in a sort of
chrysalis state, wondering and ponder-
ing over what changes she can make in
the present wardrobe, and the delight-
ful contrasts in which she will revel in
the future one.
Men, real, truly men, do not gossip;
but there are some young Specimens of
the genus man that think it particularly
to their credit to talk of their affairs
with the gentler sex whenever they can
find another equally mean spirit willing
to listen to them.
In the street car, yesterday, the writ-
er was forced to listen to a recital that
caused her blood to boil and made her
resolve to warn all kittenish young
girls from talking or acting other than
in the most dignified fashion unless they
were absolutely sure that the masculine
listener or observer was a gentlemen at
heart as well as in appearance.
Two well dressed apparently well-
bred, young men of 22 or 23 regaled a
lot of strangers with the incidents of a
drive and dance in which they evident-
ly felt that they had figured as heroes.
Names were mentioned and slighting
remarks uttered and if any one present.
had been acquainted with the young
women spoken so freely about, there
would certainly have. been a few un-
pleasant minutes for those garrulous
young idiots. _
As it was we felt inclined to tell them
that no man of the world discusses a
woman’s actions in public or private,
more particularly if said woman had
been inclined to place implicit confi-
dence in him.‘ Many a girl who is only
thoughtless has had her name bandied
about by just such masculine gossips
and much trouble and sorrow have
been the result. -. ‘ .
A woman gossip is despicable, but a
man gossip is worse. Chivalry and cour-
tesy should go hand in hand,and though
there may be some would-be Lotharios
who think that such sentiments belong
toa by-gone age, certain it is that the
world would be better off if there were
more of such old-fashioned ideas preva-
lent in the masculine make up.

l ELIZABETH, N. J ., Fcll. Jo —'l‘he dead
body of P. H. Tracey, aged 65, a prosper-

Conn., lies in the Elizabeth morgue, he
having lost. his life by taking a large dose
of aconite given to him by mistake by Na-
thaniel P. Oakley, u livery stable keeper
of Roselle, who, with Frederick Wood, a
hotel keeper of Aldene, narrowly escaped
death by the same means.
Tracey called on \Vood, and they drove to
Oakley’s stables. There Oakley, glad to
see them, invited them to have a drink of
whisky after their ride.
Oakley took a bottle from a closet and
thought it contained whisky, but as soon
poured out aconite, drinking a liberal dose
himself.
When he discovered his blunder, the
three men rushed to Tiernan’s drug store.
Here. Dr. Tiernan gave strong emetics and
applied galvanic batteries. Tracey died in
a half hour.
Wood and Oakley had a hard battle for
life, their hearts’ action at times being al-

that they are out of danger.
Oakley’s grief over his blunder is in-
