Lev MPSES | THERE WILL BE NO MAY PO- LICE PARADE. Street Cats Must Not Transfer-- Salaries For Charity Officials How Political Matters Stand. New York, Ap#il 25-Despite the fart that the legislature of this state closed earlier yet than ever be fore in its history, the session wes a specially busy one. Bowe idea of the number of bills tr t before the body may be' gaiged mayor Low nafaiipoes' that ho ih received 105 sills passed by the legislature, relat- ing to New York city alone. Of this number he approved sixty-theee, ve- toed forty-one and one was eslled. For the past few . years the street car riders of this eity Dive had cause for continual complaint because of the inconvenience to which they have been put in ing cars before the end of the route was reached. This annoyance has 'been at last done away with, by the passing of a reso- Infion by the board of aldermen mak- ing it a misdemeanor for a street railway road to transfer passengers from ons 'ear to another before thie termination of its route. April, wauglly a dull month, peliti- cally speaking, has been prolific in important events in politics. There have been happenings of real conse quence on all sides. There has been undoubted progress in democratic harmony. The party has turned its back on 'William J. n and accept- long fasgional differences between Hill and wv, it i= claimed having been settled by the retirement of chief Croker, Then there is a decided belief Song them that the democrats of New Yor time influence in national politics. On the other hand the factional difference among ropublicans cannot be con- cealed, and party harmony may he said to depend upon the thread of se nator Platt's life. Republicans, how- ever, recognize the bearings of the situation and ave séting with dis cietion. Thus go matters political, The famous old Broadway Taber nacle, which business recently forced to sell, will nov be finally closed to-morrow as originally intended. An agreement' has been made to extend the beginning of the demolition until after the 28th as Miss Ellen M. Stone will 'give a lecture there, telling the story of her capture by the Bulgarian brigands and treatment, while incap- tivity. Dp "Jefferson, pastor of ths Tabernacle was 'at one time Miss Stone's pastor and was influential in raising a large amount of part of her ransom, 80 it is only natural that the members of the Tabernacle should wish to hear her lecture in the church which did so much for her. Although work on the pdpent scheme of 'underground railroad = is only half completed, already agitation has begun for still another subway to be built on the east side of the city. There is to doubt that this improve- ment is. needed, and that sooner or later, it will have to be supplied but just now the city has all that it van attend to in the way of public works on Hs hands, having just appropriat- od several millions of dollars for this purpose. 4 For yesfs one of the' spring fea: tures of this city hae been the police parade. This May thers will be none, and for once police commissioner Partridge has the unanimous support of the department in deciding this faet.- The reasons given for doing away with the time-honored: show are that the concentration of 4,000 mem- bers of the force for several hours along the rowte of parade leaves the remainder: of the city with insufficient protection; that business is interrupt: ed along busy thoroughlares. = A movement which is considered the next legitimate step in the evolution of charity organization in this city is the effort now being made to establish ah equitable standard of salaries for officials and employees engaged in philerthropic work. It was not ; so long since that. - the idea of a. paid philanthropist was in itself vepugn- ant. Little by little, however, this field of labor has been mapped out and 'the effort in it systematized. The old idea of doing good by stealth in img 'to uplift sociewy at odd times and wholly on emotional impulses, hss more and more given way to a clearer' and perception of spirit hen come to prevail, Modern dramas depend to a large extent upon some great scenic effect.

The policy of the Ontario govern: ment is briefly outlined a= follows : 1. To 'wid settlement and increase prosperity by trunk colonization roads and railways in order to make homys for the sons of Ontario, who othes wise might seek a home in another province or under a foreign flag. 2. To apply a reasonable portion of the waste lands of the province in aid of railways--the fands to revert to the crown if not settled withing a rea sonable time. 3. To assist the dominion govern. ment in obtaining the quick und cheap transportation of the products of the farm, especially of horses, cattle and dressed buef, to the markets of Great Britain and to improve local trans portation within * the provikee, by means of good roads, the removal of tolls, and cheap electric railways. 4. To expand and increase our agri eultaral wealth by improved methods of husbandry, fruit-growing, dairying, cold storage, and the production of beetroot sugar, and by 'reclaiming the undrained lands of the province. 5. To control and regulate the rates for passengers and freight on all rail ways subsidized by the province, and the ultimate control of such railways by the expressed will of the legisla ture. 6. To man ture within the pro- vince, and so fut as practicable by Canadians, the ts of our forest, such as pine and spruve, into lamber and pulp, and to smelt and refine our mineral products, such as iron, nickel And eopper ore Tor the markets of "the world, 7.

To insist upon the control of all local rights and franchises, as far as practicable, by the municipalities to which they properly belong. 9. To maintdin with a firm hand the rights of Ontario against any other province or the dominion. 10. To enforce all laws emacted for the protection of public morality, with firmness and impartiality. 11. To improve the practical educa tion of the artisan classes by the es tablishment of technical schools as is now done in England and the United States. 12.

Found to Have $12,000 in Italian Bank, Yet Lived in Squalor. Strange revelations were brought to light the other day in a New York po- lice eourt, when Francisco Gorgia, six ty yours old, an Italian organ grinder, living in squalor on the second floor of a tenement at No. 235 East 105th street, was arraigned on a charge of begging. The prisoner, old and decrepit, with a flowing white beard and long white hair. upon being found guilty by the comi took a bag from his pocket and counted out 85 in mickels, dimes, quar ters and half dollars, with which he paid his fine. He also paid a lawyer's fee of 85 in change and then; to the dismay and astonishment of those in the court room, the Italian produced a packet vontaining £150 in bills, and a bank book on the bank of Rome, Italy, showing that he bad on deposit thepe $12,000, "That is not all," the Italian said, when the curious remarked "Where did you get it?" "for last May i sent to my daughter, Maria, in Itn lv, $2,000, for she is soon to be mar ried."' Although he har not done a tap of work in over thirty years, Gorgia has accumulated a small fortune by beg ging. He has been a conRpicuous figure in Harlem since he first started out with his hand organ, grinding out mournful™tunes and playing upon the sympathios of pedestrians along the principal Harlem thoroughfares. Eighteen years ago Gorgia went back to Italy, where he married, re turning two years later, after his daughter had ben born. He made several trips to Italy since that time, and on every visit placing the money he begged in this city in the bank Rome. Gorgia told his lawyer yesterday that he will soon weturn to Italy and there enjoy his wealth, as he cannot stand paying $5 fines. ones A Good Thing.
