Wait for aBetter Plan.
It should be borne in mind by the voters
of the borough that a special borough
meeting will be held in the Town House
this (Wednesday) afternoon at 3 o’clock,
“to take into consideration the macadam-
izing of West avenue, and if thought best,
to make. an appropriation for the same.”
At the speciallmeeting of the court of
burgcsses at which this call was formula-
ted there was an eqrial division of senti-
ment regarding the advisability of issuing
such a call for such a purpose. The
grounds of the opposition were pretty
thoroughly covered by the Clerk, rWllO
manifested his sincerity in the matter by
resigning his office rather than be placed
in the position of even securing to favor
the :(‘llt'lllt‘ or to share in the responsibility
of forcing it at this time upon the attention
of a heavily burdened and tax-ridden
(‘oriiriiuriily.
‘l M‘t't: are points in his argument that.
are tit-seivl g of profound consideration.
'i‘liat our roads are in need of attention,
prompt and effectiVe, (no one will question;
but that the appropriations for the same
are sufficient to keep them in a much bet-
ter condition than they are kept in, is also
beyond question—it is notoriously
obvious. The. estimate of the cost of man—
:tdamizing West avenue, as submitted by
the lliglnvay eoiriiiiittce, is $310,000, and
this simply fora “thin shell” road, or a
top dressing of crushed stone four inches
thick. This processof road making is still
new, and has not yet been tested in any
plan: long enough to be denominated as
anything more lliari an experiment: Its
practicability for long and heavy wear has
not been demonstrated to the satisfaction
of tlirse experienced in roads and road
making and who have no special interest
in its adoption. Ten thousand dollars
would net be a high price for a road bed
on West avenue that could be guaranteed
to endure permanently or fora reasonable
number of years. But the borough is in
no mood nor circumstances at present to
add to its enormous debt, the sum of $10,-
0le for an experiment which has no guar-

A Case of Moral Suicide
“ .‘.ttL‘ years ago, llobert Hay llairiilton

or" Germ-id Schuyler Hamilton, great—grand—

son wt Alexander Hamilton, a graduate of
Columbia College and Columbia Law School,
a irieniber of the Union League and Univer-
sity Clubs, with health, ambition, brains,
and lzosls of friends and $35,000 to $10,000
a year ill his own right, he had the ball at
his feet. His inherited taste for politics
had beer. gratified by an election and re-
election to the Assembly from the Murray
Hill district of New York city, and he had
already distinguished himself on more than
one occasion in that body The respectable
newspapers of his city thought well of him
and spoke well of him. He had crossed the
threshold of an honorable career, and all
the omens were propitious.
Three years ago, however this well-born,
well-bred, clever, ambitious gentleman, no
longer in his first youth, knowing good and
evil, made a fool, of himselfand a wreck of
his life for the pretty face of a woman as de-
praved as she was pretty, addicted to whis-
key and morphine, who scarcely took the
trouble of pretending to return his affection,
and p:rs.~ed along a share of the money he
lavished on her to her “lover”. Hamilton
let this woman come between him and his
family, his friends, his career. For he vir-
tually exiled himself from the city and the
society in which he was born, and made
her his legal wife. She is now
locked up in a New Jersey prison and
Robert Ray Hamilton, the great-grandson
of “’ashington's secretary of the treasury,
the. husband of “Eva May” is trying to ob-
tain a. divorce. He claims that he married
her under a deception, but since he admits
that he placed himself in a position which
made that deception practicable, he is a
party to it. Hamilton’s case is pitiable,
but who is to blame? He threw himself
away, just as fast men are doing all the
time. When the consequences appear
these men always want to shit]: them, and
this is just what Ray Hamilton is now try-
ing to do.
“Can a man take fire in his bosom, and not

The fall meeting of the Fairfleld County
Yale Alumni Association was a great suc-
cess. It was held last Wednesday at the
resrdencc of Landon Ketchuin at the shore
in Saugatuck, where the three gentlemen
constituting the Yale colony oVer there,
Mr. Ketchum, Dr. Run and Williaui P.
Euo, Esq., united in the entertainment.
The business in hand that day was ilic .
acceptance of the charter granted by the '
Legislature last winter, and the adoption '
of a constitution and by-laws For a year
back there has been some criticism of the ’
management on the ground that the asso-
ciation had little voice in it, and that the
officers came to be elected either by them-
selves or by the few. Now Yale College
is the most democratic place in the world,
and no man can spend four years there
without having his spirit saturated Willi
the idea that the many are mort iiunier- ‘
ous than the few, and that they are the
people. In derogation of this principle,
the proposed constitution had it that the
president was to name a committee on
nominations, and this committee: was to
nominate a board of trustees, which,
when elected by the association, was to
elect the officers. This was plersing to 1
ltzzv. G. S. l’luriiley, president; l'ev. A
N. Lewis, sacretary; and to Dr. lilting- i
ham II. Nichols and the less nriiicrous
few. The younger element Wei'eled by
Howard H. Knapp, General Skidly and
Mr. Shelley, Willi Judge ‘i 'oodwa'd and ;
Senator Hill in favor of a rnodif'ir-jl plan
of their own. Di. II. C. S. McNelte, of i
Bridgeport, was in favor of the plzn, but ;
thought the pill should be mecifully
sugared before the boys were conpelled
to absorb it. He sue-eessfully vivstcted i
every counter proposition that. was of—l
fered. The presideiitargued every notion l
before he put it, as he put it, and is he
declared the result of the vote on it. This
brought Judge Woodward and Mr Hill
into the opposition in the interest if fair
play. The party of the larger par'were
contending for an election of all olicers ;
annually by ballot, and after three rows l
of wordy war they got it. :

The St. John-Lockwood Wedding.
Wednesday was a bright and beautiful
day. and its warm sunshine made it in
perfect harmony with the brilliant social
event that was about to take place. In
the afternoon of that day the ceremony
that. made Mr. Geo ge B. St. John, our
poriila r tax Collector, and Miss Hannah S.
Lockwood husband and wife was per-
formed, and active preparations for the
occasion WUt‘t‘ being made. Florisr. Han-
ford was busy decorating the LockWood
homestead, at the corner of North avenue
and Knight street, with ferns and flowers,
and his exquisite taste almost. transformed
the old-fashioned residence into an en-
ehanted palace, the splendor of which was
in nature’s most blautiiul gifts. The
drawing room, where the ceremony was
to take place, was decorated with cliry-
santheniumstastily set in green foliage.
An arch of laurel was stretched across
the hall, at. the foot of the stairs, and in
its centre hung a beautiful floral herse-
slioe made of carnatioiis. Every nook
and corner was also filled with flowers
arranged in various ways, and nothing
was left undone that iould add to the
beauty of the occasion.
The wedding was a very exdrisivc one,
the guests, with a very few exceptions,
beingeoii‘ipoSed of relatives of the con-
tracting parties. Mrs. David Eggleslori,
of New York, acted as hostess and received
the guests, and she was assisted by Dr C.

Interesting letters from regular arid occa-

The people’s interests in all politic d, social
