For once law and order has asserted itself in the city of NeWYork.- Law- brcakers have had to cry out for mercy, and defiant liquor dealers had to haul down their ”flag and to confess that Commissioner Roosevelt, Recorder Gofi‘, the Police Department and the Court of General Sessions form a com bination against which violators of the Sunday closing law, defiant saloon keepers, shyster lawyers and liquor dealing associations find themselves unable to Struggle and incompetent to defeat. _ It has beena great victory for law and order, and while it may be advis- Jable to alter the proviSions governing the liquor tr‘a'lfic, land to make them more suitable to the cosmopolitan needs of 11 c1 ty like New York, it is an assurance that-the law must be respect- ed and obeyed, however much it may interfere with the liberty of any trade. +>————— Boycott Them. . Zslla Nicolaus is to make her dra- matic debut in a few days. She has become notorious as the young woman who is suing George Gould for over $50,000. f Having secured a. certain kind of renown,lsays the New Haven Leader, the next step is an appearance with some cheap theatrical company who hope that, this young woman’s notori..ty will serve to do what their ability cannot do; namely, draw crowd- ed houses. This sort of theatrical management isa disgrace to the pro- fession and the sooner managers of . theatres absolutely refuse to permit their houses to be opened to such com- panies the better it will be for the pub- lic and the legitimate drama. The sconer a boycott is entered by the pub- lic and theatrical managers against alleged theatrical companies that tour about the country accompanied by a prize fighter or the doubtful heroine of divorce proceedings or sensational suit of some sort, continues the Leader, the owner the country will be rid of an in- tolerable nuizance. ' It is time that prize fighters and libertines were kept off from the stage, and out of places where they make themselves conspicu- ous for profit. MO.“— The Catholic Clergy.

Office. Mrs. Callahan saw the Men at Work and Frightened Them Away. At midnight last Saturday night an attempt was made to enter the Darien pest ofi‘ice. Mrs. Chadderton, the wife of the Darien barber whose shop ad- joins the post office, saw the men at work and frightened them away. ' This morning at 2 o‘clock Mrs. Calla- han who lives with her husband over the post office, heard a suspicious noise down stairs. She arose and went to the window and was startled to see two men at work on the door of the post office. They had succeed-ed in forcing open the screen'door and had cuta hole in the glass door leading into the ofiice and were in the act of removing the fastenings when discovered by Mrs. Callahan. Instead of crying out, although badly frightened, Mrs. Callahan left the win- dow and started to call her husband who was sleeping in a rear room. The noise made by her was evidently heard by the burglars for when Mr. Callahan reached the scene they had decamped leaving nothing but a chisel behind as a clue. Mrs. Callahan could not give a very good deacriptiOn of the men owing to excitement, but she observed that the one working at the door when :she dis- covered them was quite tall while his companion was short.

This morning, Motorman Tully of the Street Railway company was the vic-V tim of another man’s folly. As he was running his car down West avenue, he collided with a horse and wagon driven by Isaac Buttery. wheels of the wagon was wrecked. Mr. Tully says that he rang the alarm gong, but that the driver of the horse turned the team directly in front of the car, and he had no time to stop the car be- fore the collision occurred. The state- ment of an' eye witness is to the effect that Mr. Buttery was more at fault for the accident than was Mr. Tully. N ev- ertheless, according to a rule of the company Mr. Tully is laid off for a week. The damages will be settled by the company. ' Mad Dog.
