sew York, Oct. 13. The news-
bers that have moved uptown and
Smed them'selves on superior ad-

Iking a poor showing as to the de
ary of their papers downtown.

Times wasn't on time a single

occurs, although they go to
bss earlier In order to allow more
to reach distributing points.

The western town of HIbblngs
Ends word that, although It hasn't

; has started a county fair, and hns
lade a success of It. New York, not

reater New York. It isn't any
Juch of a cave.either, but is fitted
for six persons, and Is as truly a
Icrct resort as All Baba's ever wbb;
at least, was until it was dlseov-
red by the owner of the land, and
did not come upon It until some
proveraents to the land had un-
svered the entrance to It. How long
e users of it had had It in service
lone can tell, but it Is evident that
be were abundantly secure from
Nervation, for the land-owner had
assessed it for many years. The

tenacity vita wklek the rall-
cotnpanle cliac to a right of
the case of Park place, in which
street the railroad company hns laid
an entire new Hue of rails although
it has not run any cars at all over it
in years, except within a few months
when it began running a single horse
car, which ran up and down the two
blocks and so around Into Barclay
street. In the latter street the old
car also held the right of way, but
not so In Vesey street, where the
city authorities were able to order
the cars out on a prescript of the
court. . The authorities wanted to lay
down a new wooden pavement so the
railroad people laid new tracks In
Park Place, and themselves supplied
the tracks with the new pavement,
which will be extended over the full
width of the street. The car run
over tho tracks takes in about a
nlckle for a fare, every day or two,
and the conductor and driver con
sider It quite an event when a pas
senger gets aboard. But the rail
road company holds on to the tracks
just the same.
Mrs. Mary J. Wakeman-Sounders-
Powers-Gay-LIndley-Crowther has
married again. This Is her eighth
Venture, and It probably entitles her
to be considered the best married
woman In the world, nnd probably
the business of marrying when she
was only 14 years of age, and Is now
39, so the average period of domes
ticity enjoyed with each husband Is
about three years, which is enough
to get acquainted with each of them,
but of course she has to refer to her
accounts at times to recall separate
one. She Is now Mrs. Le Page, hav
ing married her last named an Amer
icanized Englishman, who Is a few
years younger than she fs, and has a
liberal bank account. Sho has been
married to this latest one about six
months. Mrs. Le Page has inclined
to Connecticut husbands more than
to those of any other state, four of
her eight coming from tho Nutmeg
state, while three have come from
New York. Jersey City contributed
the other one. She divorced four,
and three have died. She has kept
track of them very well, Indeed, and
at no time has had two at once.whlch
shows that even marrying can be car
ried on systematically and without
errata.
After all tho fuss and fury made
over the Rapid Transit company's
charging a double far to Coney Isl
and, and the riots that occurred on
the line when the conductors under
took to collect fares, the appellate
division of the supreme court has de
cided that the company is perfectly
right in insisting upon passengers
paying two fares, and that its col
lection of such fnrcs is according to
law. After fight began to get pret
ty hot the compnny was compelled,
In order to satisfy the public and
the newspapers, to Issue rebate tick
ets promising to refund the extra
nlckle If the higher courts decided
against Its contention. These will
now bo worthless. Tho courts estab
lished In the newspaper offices, aro
overruled, much to tho astonishment
nnd Indignation of the cigarette
smokers who wrote tho decision for
the livery sheets. Judge Gaynor,
on whose obiter dictum tho papers
also relied, found occasion before tho
appellate court spoke to give out an
explanation, to the effect that his de
cision was really not of much con
sequence, after all, which Is another
argument for not having any politics
on tho bench. Hundreds of thou
sands of dollars are Involved In the
matter In checks already issued for
rebates, while the loss to the railroad
company would have amounted to
millions In a few years.
