XEW YORK, Sept. 13.-A New York
er who happened to be in one of the
coast towns in Italy somewhat over a
year afro, witnessed there the town's
celebration of the feast of St. Mary. In
the evening the street were gay with
illuminated arches. There was a pa
rade with colored fire and band-, fire
balloons were floated and in one of the
squares was set up a huge pink and
silver and gold altar to the saint, be
fore which a reverent throng constant
ly passed and upon which scores of
candles burned. "How unlike New
York!" remarked the Xew Yorker. A
few evening ago, happening to stroll
south from the old aristocratic quarter
of Stuyvesant Square, he found himself
on the edge of a teeming Italian sec
tion in the streets of which the cele
bration he had seen in Italy was being
reproduced, illuminated arches, fire
balloons, parade, altar and alL He min
gled with the throng, and so far as the
faces he saw and the language he heard
were concerned, he might have been in
the midst of Italy.
Manv Cities In One.
In Xew York, embracing as it do?,
men of all nations, all race, all creed.
every holiday and feat day in the
world is celebrated by some portion of
the population. Xew Yorker who do
little exploring about the city do not
roaliw that with 37 per cent of the
population foreign-horn, the metropolis
contains a tnreMon " loreign cine.
The aggregate of all foreign Itorn and
those of foreign parentage in Xew York
is 2,;l;tM.8!5. New York is the largest
Jewish city m the www witn anout
ronnui Hebrews. Durinvr the feast of
Rosh Husanna, on Sept. 20, business will
l at a standstill oven a larve portion
of the Kast Side, and for over a mile
along Broadway in the section begin
ning with Canal street ana enumg at
Astor nlace. Xew ork contains with
in a few thousands as many Irish as
IWlfast ami Dublin together; more Cer-
mans than Munich, more Italians than
Florence, nearly as many Russians Riga,
nearlv as manv Autro-Hungarians as
Prague, and more Xorwegians than
Cbristiansaml.
Bingham for President.
Mr. Bryan is retired from the lime
lk.ht of Presidential possibilities. Pres
ident Roosevelt, if he finally decide to
run again, had best beware and candi
date like Messrs. Shaw, Fairbanks.
Taft and Hearst had better take to
the tall titular. The Pushcart Pedlers
of the East Side are out with a ticket
which tbey believe will sweep the coun
try. The' ticket is: For President, Po
lice Commissioner Bingham; for Vice
President. Peputv CouimUsioner
Rhinewine" Waldo." The proclamation
of these new candidates loiioweu me
announcement that Commissioner Bing
ham and hia deputy had ordered the no
li. in foret the Sunday law so far
a the pushcart men are concerned and
look the other way when the pedlers
a.re selling things. " The pushcart men
wish to sell on this particular Sabbath
because during a part of the week they
will be idle because of the feast of
Roh llasanna. Sigimind Schwart. the
President of the United Pashcart Ped
lers' Association f C.reater Xew York,
aud Finnan Haddie Mose Lippman are
the original Bingham men. At a meet
ing of tlie Pedlers' Association an an
nouncement was made that Mr. Waldo's
name was originally Rhinewain Waldo
sky evoked tremendous hysteria. It
was suggested that the pedlers give
Commissioner Bingham a diamond stud
ded cane and a set of diamond shirt but
tons, but frugal afterthought changea
this to a set of enaros-ed resolutions,
in red, green, yellow and pink letter
ing, with a bunch of wax flowers tied
to the frame.

said the relief corporation is consider
ing the advisability of sending an agent
to Washington to look after San Fran
ciWs interest in the 11,800,000 held
there by the National Red Cross for the
relief of this city.
Word from Washington that the di
rectors of the Rod Cross had decided what
disposition should I made of the money
but would meet on Sept 25, created a
sensation at relief headquarters today.
It has been given out right along that
this money would be turned over to
the rorraMration early in September,
&100.000 being held in New York and
$000,000 in Boston. An agent from Bos.

ONE KILLED; FOUR INJURED.
THE DAU.ES, Sept. 15,-While
moving a pile driver on a high trestle
at Lyhi yesterday afternoon, ropes at-;
t ached to the machine parted, result
ing in the death of William Williams,
engineer of d. M. Bruce & Co.'i bridge
crew, and seriously inuring four of his
assistants. The injured men are lying
in the city hospital at this pla.-e.
The piledrivcr with which the long
bridge across the Balfour place is
ing built, was at an elevation of .IS
feet when the accident occurred. The
heavy machine toppled over, pulling th
ropes out of the donkey ensfine as it
fell and earning down the live unfor
tunate men. who were all caught in
the mass of machinery, scalding water
and steam. !
As soon as they could lie extricated
from the debris the Injured men were ;

WEEK ON WALL STREET.
XEW YORK, Sept. 15. Cold ship
ninnti for Vpff Yorrk set in full tide
this week and were made immediately
available to Xew York reserves by the
,.t the treasury order for de
posit of government funds against the
engagements. The result was the break
ing of the money stringency in Wall
street and the recession of the call loan
rate to nearly normal figures. The re
sponse in the stock market was mod
erate owingNo some realizing on pur
chases made while money was stringent.
The remaining doubt of the money pros
pect owing to the large demands to be
met to accommodate the exceedingly
active business conditions also exer
cised some restraining influence, f.en
eral confidence was felt, however, that
measure of money relief by the Treas
ury Department would , follow any sign
of' harmful money stringency.

ment lost three killed and several

Tollet-tfojrlet.
In the "New World of Words." 1720,
"toilet" Is defined as "a kind of Table
cloth or carpet made of fine Llunen.
Satin, Velvet or Tissue, spread upon a
Table In a Bed Chnmber where Per
sons of Quality dress thenmelves; a
Dressing-cloth." A similar definition
Is clven In Bailey's dictionary. The
origin of the word Is curious, for Cot-
grave has: "See 'Toilette,' 'A toylet,
the stuff which drapers lay about their
cloths; also a bag to put nightgowns
In.'" In the "Rape of the Lock," 1.
121, "toilet" seems used for the table
and Its contents:
And now, unvell'd, the toilet stands dis
play'd. Each silver vase In mystic order laid.

world are found In California. One j
grower has three plants which have '
reached a length of thirty feet. lit '
three months from the time the seeds '
were planted the vines had climbed to
the top of a twenty foot trellis. The ;
trunks of these plants, says What to
Eat, are one and a half Inches in di
ameter and the foliage Is thick and '
luxuriant. Enormous uantltlcs of to
matoes have been picked from them
and the fruit m of unusual size, pos
sessing an extraordinary fine flavor.
