March 27.-Mrs. Harlot Mohr, who aid she was from Virgin, created a panic in a Sixth Avenufcgurface car last night with a revolver She was arrested after a terrific s,ggle with a policeman.

These silent figures, silent only because overcome by sleep, will not be mere creatures of the belated pedestrian' imagination; they will be really there, every one of them a suffragette, act ing in accordance with the advice given by Mrs. Florence Melley, one of their leaders. "To get a man's vote sit on bis door-stcp." she said the other day at a meeting and her re mark was received with such en thusiasm, that it clearly indicated how perfectly her advice agreed with the ideas of her sister suffragettes. If any doorstep should remain un occupied it will be due to the fact that there are not enough suffragettes in the city to go round. The im mediate result of this move will be that the male citizens of New York will sneak out of back-doors and over the roofs of neighboring houses to evade the suffragettes blockading their front-door steps. The suffragettes are conducting vigorous campaign and even propose to hold an open-air mass meeting in Printing House Square at half past two o'clock n the morning to convert the newspapermen employed on the morning papers in the locality. At first they also intended to invite their male sympatbzers to that meeting, but the plan was abandoned, because it was feared the night air might in jure their complexion and being out so late night nterfere with the domes' tic duties of the "men". Between keeping tab on the saloons protecting pretty girls at the street crossings during busy traffic . hours keeping school children from running under the wheels of delivery wagon and other vehicles, chasing autos vio lating the speed ordinance and sitting around in magistrates' court rooms the policemen of New York are kept so busy that they have no time for catching thieves, burglars and other criminals. For that reason nobody was surprised to hear that Comission er Bingham has established a secret police system, which shall be devoted exclusively to the fcrretting out of crimes and criminals. Only a few days a leathergood) merchant on Broadway, whose estab lishment is on Broadway, nearly op posite police headquarters, was rob bed by burglars of goods valued at more than $1,000. The feature, par ticularly humiliating to the police de partment is, that a few days before the burglary the owner of the estab lishment notified the police that the locks of his factory had been tamper ed with and a special watch wa or dered to be kept on his place. The front entrance to the building was carefully guarded," but the thieves were so inconsiderate as to change their program and to enter the place through a scuttle in the roof. A few nights ago two of the trained police dogs succeeded in capturing three evil-doers, who had outdistanc ed their blue-coated pursuers and would have escaped, had it not been for the four-legged assistants of the police. Some facetious individual thereupon sent a letter to Commis sioner Bingham, recommending, "for Sunday nd Monday at TUG UIL, BUNGALOW SELIQ'S BEAUW FILM A Two Act flusical Comedy by Thomas P. Oets !

The dignity of a fledgeling Brook lyn lawyer suffered a shock when he entered the Supreme Court in that borough the other day and asked for an order which he had left to have Justice Marean sign. When he re ceived the papers he found attached to them a slip on which was neatly written, "I will not sign such a damn fool order as this. J. T. H." When the young attorney had partially re covered from the shock he asked in a bewildered way: "What does this mean?" "It means just what it says" replied the clerk without any show of sym pathy. "The Judge is not in the habit of affixing his signature to what he regards as damn fool papers." The youthful barrister looked about bipi in a dazed way for a moment or two and then passed slowly out of court. It appeared that he asked the court to be allowed to amend a sum mons and complaint so as to add a Federal Trustee in Bankruptcy as a defendant- He wanted the order made "nuc protunc' in the unual way." It seemed from the brief but eloquent indorsement by Justice Marean that there was no "usual way" as to such motions. Some of the New York' theaters where particularly lurid shows are at present running, must have been stingy with their free passes lately. One of the New York assembly-men has introduced in the legislature two bills, which would make guilty of a misdemeanor every person who in any capacity prepares, advertises or participates in any indecent play or entertainment, every lessee, owner or manager of any place who leases or permits it to be used for such exhibi tion, and every person who prepares or posts in any public place posters tending to demoralize the public morals or calculated to shock the Sense of decency or propriety. If these bills should become laws it would be necessary to build large additions to the prisons of the state to accomodate the actors, actresses, chorus girls, managers and bill-posters, not to speak of the numerous em ployes and attendants at various the aters making a specialty of "haut gout" shows. It does not appear from the bills who is to whether a show is "off color" or not. The pastor of the First Congrega tional Church of Jersey City has de cided to wage' war against persons violating the law prohibiting spitting in trolley cars and other public con veyances. It is rather rough on the well-meaning pastor that one of the New York morning papers published the account of his proposed campaign under the more than ambiguous head line, "Pastor a Spitting Crusader". CENTRALIZING THE POWER WASHINGTON, March 27.-Sen-ator Crawford of South Dakota, suc cessor to Senator Kittredge, who was chairman of the committee on inter Oceanic canals, has signalized his en trance into the Senate by introduc ing a bill which would abolish the Panama Canal Commission and place in the hands of the President all au thority over the canal zone. The bill authorizes the President to proceed with the excavation of the canal to completion and to appoint a director and a chief engineer. He is given authority to fix their compensation, but Congress is permitted to change the amount if it so desires. ' The President is also given author ity to remove any of the zone offic ials at his pleasure. It is specified that "AH orders and regulations with respect to the government of the canal zone hereafter enacted by the President or pursuant to his direc tions without prejudice to the power to revoke or amend the same" Iomas were awarded in connection with the exposition held in St. Louis in 1904 The bureau desires to de liver these medals, but having lost all trace of persons to whom they belong they are now being held here. DIES AT 100 YEARS NEW YORK. March 27.-Mrs. Eliza A. Zerega, widow of Augustus Zerega di Zerega who before her marriage was Eliza Moerch van Uy tendaele, Baroness von Breton, died here yesterday, aged 100 years. She was the daughter of the Baron von Breton of Denmark. MAKES NO MISTAKE SAN FRANCISCO, March 27. Naval Constructor Holdcn A. Evans of Mare Island, speaking at a ban quet given by the Rotary Club in this city, declared it was absolutely neces sary to maintain a powerful fleet in Pacific waters. He said: "The Pa cific, Coast is especially vulnerable and can only be defended by a power ful fleet- Without such a fleet an enemy can raid the coast, destroy commerce and effect landings at many places. The acquisition of the Philippines and the Hawaiian Islands has broueht the United States into world politics and has left this coun try with responsibilities which it can' not shirk." : MEDAL-MEN WANTED WASHINGTON, March 27.-An effort is being made by the Bureau of Insular affairs of the War Depart ment to learn the uresent addresses decide of persons to whom medals and dip- AFTER DOCTORS FAILED ..--"VX .....
