atory of his stninne career. The
hook was lalety plnced on aale
the denial epic of a Jail. It
a n hook youtiK men should
reail; It dweHa not on his hor
rid deed, but traces, in a hum
hie way. the paths hy whi'-h
he went aslray. He normally
was wood and clean, with Utile
of the base or mean; he hoped
to lend a useful life, to be a
bulwark to his wife, to be o.
parent safe nnd sane, an honor
lo his daughter Jane. Kor years
he went his honest ways, thru
nobcr liiRhm and toilsome days,
his purpose hlah, his conduit
nice, nbhoiTlnt; ,all tho forms
of vice. Hut then to stimulate
his mind, when wearied by flie
daily isrind, to brace Ills nerves,
refresh his thews, he started
sipping bootlei; hooze. He
didn't pour down much at first
he had an amateurish thirst;
but soon one drink would call
for more, and he would fresh
libations pour; ho went to par
ties there and here, and drank
much Bin and hocused beer, ho
drank himself Into a haze, and
lie was pickled niuhts and days
Ho when the siren came alons
and charmed him wilh her
hectic sum;, his moral nature
was reversed and ruined hy his
pampered thirst. Like one
who's walking In a dream ho
then indorsed the murder
scheme. Who reads tho tale
can scarcely choose, but sec
the bllKht of booties- booze.

an end to decency nnd self
respect and leaves the soul and

" Hy u. 1. Seymour.
! NEW VOltK The trim may
oral flKUie of James J. Walker
Is adorned this fall with woolens
of his honor's own designing.
New oka chief executive,
whoso sartorial taste Is remardeil
with nonpartisan prldo by all his
constituents came to his lailor for
autumn flttincs with such definite
Ideas of what he wanted that the
clothier had him draw designs,
and then got a woolen company
to make up 50 yards of material
Jn each pattern, since that is con
siderably moro than was used in
the mayor's five new suits nnd four
new top-coats, a few other New
York men may boast this season
that the motif In tlmlr suitings Is
of Mayor Jimmy's creation.
Tour of the new suils aro worst
ed. One has a coat of brown
with grayish cast, and trousers of
brown, through which un intricate
gray stripe runs. Another is ot
the same pattern wilh a wider
trouser stripe. A third is hlucish
gray wilh a thin gray stripe at
three-quarter inch intervals in
the trousers, and the fourth, an
other blue gray, has- a stripe of
brownish cast in the trousers.
j Hero to Ills Tailor.
! Mayor Walker's tailor is, and
has been for the last 15 years.
Jeanu Friedman, Hungarian, by
i birth, a maker of clothes sinco
he was ten and a J New . Yorker
j since he was 18. His patrons in
' elude Kddie Cantor and not a few
'officials of the present city ad
ministration, but . he affirms that
of all his customers the mayor
has the most impeccable taste.
!' Other men eonie to he outfitted.
:wilh no particular notion of what
they want, but the mayor is. in
j variably specific as to design, pat
Jtevn and cut, and generally he
' :L lHlin 101 KOilieLiiing,. 1
has a plan for something., new
which will lend individualism to

alteration. Often when trying it
on he says. 'That is not Jimmy
Walker,' but once he accepts it ho
never sends it back for something
else to bo done to it."
$2511 a Month for Soilings.
Tho mayor spends about $3000
a year for suits and coats, includ
ing two new dinner suits each sen- .
son. a new overcoat every winter
shoes also aro made to order for
him.
He has, Mr. Friedman says; tMe
shoulders of a man with a 42
inch chest, although his chest
measurement is ;C and his waist
line 20 V4 inches. Ho has a long
neck and wants, the collars of his
coals to fit snugly. The smaller
the knots of his cravats, the bet
ter they suit him.
In spile of his abundance of
new clothes, suits and coats sel

Many a needy friend of Jimmy's
build has found n lot of wear
left in a jutit which the mayor
has worn for a season and oc
casionally, when the whim strikes
him, he sends a friend up to get
a brand new suit never yet worn,
because he thinks his comrade will
look well in it. ; , ,
