ROWER'S REMARK THOSE WHO GIVE AND THOSE WHO tET THEM. . , ,._ A good deal of AnAutocrat.c £u * lg being Scheme, pokied at the scheme which has developed theoret- ically, at least in a Greater New York. Our western papers, especially those of Chicago, want fio know whether New York has plaated her peas yet and whether\ she has a pros- pect of a good potato crop. This re- fers of course to the large amount of land which is now used for agricul- tural purposes, and will be for many years, within the. confines of the pro- posed Greater New York, There is, however, a reason for considering this matter seriously, I t lies hi the fact that the cities of New York, Brook- lyn, Long' Island City and other small municipalities have been united in one immense city without the consent of the people who reside within their limits. Not only have these people been united in Greater New York without their .consent, but to a certain extent against their protest. The mayors of New York and Brooklyn protested against the scheme and vetoed the bill, The only mayor favoring it, Gleason, of Long Island City, if that conglom- eration of oil tanks, rum shops and bad odors can be called a city, is a no- torious prize fighter. All of which goes to show that it is the better class of the people of these cities, .those who pay the taxes, that are opposed to the change, the only advantage of which ajppears to be that the farmers of Long- Island can claim to be residents of the third largest city in the world. This scheme has been car-ried out by Thomas C. Piatt, \a man who resides in Tioga county and is not even a resi- dent of the conglomerate city that he, through Governor llorton's aid, brought into existence. Yet this man, Piatt, WJU. become, through this means, the absolute ruler of the me- tropolis of America, and as already said, the third city of the world. Those who claim to comprehend the scheme profess to see in some of its peculiar provisions the foundations broadly and deeply laid for the big- gest and most autocratic machine ever set up in this country. The .whole thing is the outcome of 3itr. Piatt's brain. The \people have '• • ' not had anything to do With it. They . •; asked to have the measure submitted to a popular vote and this reasonable request was? refused and now a char- ter for..-y}9 -city is.to be prepared and the residents anrl' voters are obliged i ^o, stand asrtle andrsae, the document r -,. framed regardless, of _- their wishes', \ This is to be done by a commission' appointed by the governor, composed of men proposed by Piatt. , ..This whole business is the outcome of legislative interference, with muni- cipal governments. This hrterfer- ference has been growing for yeai-.s in all our states, and in New York it has been particularly objectionable from the fact that the cities of this state have frequently been opposed politi- cally by the legislature. This last and boldest move appears to take away the right of cities to govern themselves and is manifestly unjust, What will be the outcome of it no one as yet can foresee. 111-. Piatt and his coadjutors claim that they can govern New York better than it has ever been governed before, but it may be well to suggest that, i t will be autocrati- cally and that even the cities of Eu- rope, with few exceptions, are allowed to govern themselves. Does anyone believe that London would agree t o a scheme like this, even if proposed by the queen herself? And yet, free born Americans are expected to humbly submit t o the absolute with- drawal of their rights of citizenship. The estimated expenses of keeping- Hags flying in all weather from the top of the public school buildings in Ohio is $50,000 a year,and in this state, where there are so many more school houses the cost must be considerably greater. The only object of display- ing the flag at the schools being to •inculcate patriotism in the pupils, the question is asked by the Albany /limes-Union, why not post, the flag on the inside, over the teacher's desk, where the pupils can see it live or six hours of the school day, instead of flying it outside in all weather? Not a bad suggestion. «• * # CJueen Victoria was 77 years old yes- tei-day, having been born May 24, 1819. She is the only child of the Duke of Kent, who was the fourth boii of George the Third. She was only is when she became queen by the death of William the Fourth, on June 20, 1S37, and her reign has lasted now nearly 58 years, much longer than that of any other living sovereign. The Prince of Wales was born in 1841, and was married to Princess Alexandra, of ' Denmark, in 1863. He will be 50' next November, and his chance of succeed- ing to the crown seems quite remote. The republican bosses would like, to make a trade with McKinley, but they have waited too long. The major is now master of the situation and noth- ing but a Burehard or an act of Prov- idence can prevent him from being the candidate of the St. Louis convention. » * % Rhode Island is a small state but it is \cheeky\ enough to make itself heard on most occasions. Just now it has a candidate for president on the Prohibition ticket, who is quite likely to be elected as any of his party, and two or three for vice president on the republican ticket. •» 'A «• Piatt, Quay and some others may yet. find room in the McKinley band wagon for them. The reserved seats are, however, already Ml. Attract Much Attention—It was Very Brief hut to the Point and Set Some People Thinking. A WATERT0WN WOMAN Becomes the Lillian Russell of Syracuse. MRS. ANNA GIIX-LERVEE-SULLI. VAN-ABBOTT-ARLOTTE. The New York Sun of Sunday says that wherever you go hi New York now you hear the remark that- ex-Qov, Roswell P. Flower shot, out before Mayor Strong the other day: \There are two classes of folks in this world, those who g-ive and those who let 'em,\ The wholesome truth of the remark has been recognized everywhere. I n the churches, clubs, charitable institu- tions, among financiers with warm hearts, and in business circles, where many a kindly deed is done without a blare of trumpets, the pertinence and the exact fidelity to fact repre- sented in the remark have been dis- cussed and universally agreed to. So that the ex-governor's comment has become a sort of catch phrase in the vocabulary of many a distinguished circle. Almost\ all good citizens have appreciated for years the exact situa- tion, and yet never had it put in such pat language. I t came about in this way: Ex-Governor Flower for a number of years has been keenly interested in the Flower Homeopathic Hospital, Six- ty-third street and Avenue A. There are forty-eight beds in the hospital, seven \of which have been en- dowed by Mr. Flower and his relatives. The hospital is situated in one of the busiest centres of New York. It now practically occupies the field so long and efficiently covered by old St. Luke's. It takes money to run a hos- pital. The Post Graduate; the St.' John's Guild, and the Lying-in hospi- tals all receive from 'the city $1 per day for all free patients lip to $30,000 a year. The Flower' hospital is the 6niy homoeopathic surgical hospital in that busy section or anywhere near it.' So a biil was introduced at Albany and passed allowing New York city t o give this important institution $1 a day for free patients up to $12,000 a year. It was a most modest request, in the estimation of those familiar with the work of the hospital. All legislative bills affecting New- York city affairs must be passed upon by the mayor. This is one of the re- quirements demanded by the new con- stitution of the state. Yet when the Flower bill came before Mayor Strong- for a hearing Dr. Frederick E. Sturgis, for reasons best known to himself, put in an appearance and demanded that the mayor withhold his approval of the measure. Of all the 1,800,000 citizens in this fair town, Dr. Sturgis was the only one to turn out before Mayor Strong in opposition to a measure which gives the institution $12,000 a year for its beneficent and worthy v\ork. Then it was that ex-Governor Flower flared up and fired off his now- famous remark: \There are two classes of-folks in' this world, those, who give'and those who let 'em.\ • • . F/x-Uovernor. Flower speaking of the incident yesterday, said:- \I meant no offense to anybody, but, it is an, eminently well-established jtivuth tha-hwhatJ.said is not to be.clis,-.; jHVted. It is.not Bnly true of New. York but of al) communities, city or epun, r try, where there are people of wealth with charitable inclinaitions. ; Some of the rich ones give and. give, gladly, while some of the rich brethren stand back with their hands in their own pockets, as if to double'lock and chain even a spasmodic thought of doing a kindly aet. Ma^or Strong apprecia- ted what I said, I'll warrant you. He is a good giver. His charities to St. John's Guild are known to but few, but they are there just the same, and I'll bet 'you a cookey that he could teU many ail interestingstory of rich folks who* could easily give to that worthy charity, and have been importuned t o do so. but who have turned their heads and let the other fellows nut their hands deep into their pockets. Then there is a Mrs. Edward Knox, whose charities and work for the Lying-in hospital will ever be. remembered by the sick and poor women of New York. In the Flower hospital, 215 natients, all told, were treated last month only 25 of whom were well enough off in this world's goods to pay. Dr. Sturgis objected to the $12,000 a year on the ground that the Flower hospital is not a public institution. I asked him if he appeared for the Academy of Medicine or anybody but himself, and he replied that he did not. So I was glad that only one man among 1,800- 000 New Yorkers appeared before May- or Strong to oppose the bill which is intended to aid the work of the insti- tution. Many people have money be- cause they keep it. I have no criti- cism to make of that, Let 'em do so if they wish and if they are made hap- pier by such a course.'\ When Flower was Governor h e signed the three bills giving the three institutions—the St. John's Guild, the Post Graduate, and the Lying-in hospi- tals—the $1 for free patients up t o $:w,000 a year for eaeh institution. CHASING THE BAND WAGON. SANDBANK AND SWAMP Formerly at Loggerheads with Each Other. NOW THE BEST OF FEELING PRE* VAILS BETWEEN THEM. The Plaintiff ma Sensational Suit in the Salt City. Saturday afternoon there was served upon the Syracuse Savings bank an order signed by Justice Maurice L. Wright, of the supreme court.restrain- ing the bank from paying- any money on the account of Louis Arlotte. Ac- companying- the injunction was a; cox>y of the summons and complaint in an action brought agadnstAi-lottebyAnna UiU-Lervee-Sullivan-Aubott-Arlotte, et til,, the. Lillian Russell of Syracuse. The action is a sensational one and comes from the office of Hoyt & Far- l-ington. \The plaintiff,\ says the Herald, who is a woman thought to, be on the shady side of 60 years, says that under threats that her life would be the pen- alty for refusal, she transferred to Ar- lotte $500 of her money, which she now wishes restored to her. The. af- fidavit upon which the injunction was granted states that on March 2 Ai'lotte threatened deponent's life and under fear that his threat would be carried out she was induced to comply with his demands. She informed her attor- neys that Arlotte had threatened to cut her head off and leave her for the rats to devour. \Arlotte is an Italian, who for some time past has lived in the house of Mrs. Gill-Sullivan and so forth. It was believed by some that they were mar- ried, but this the woman denies, and it is not under-stood that Arlotte claims that relationship. Mrs. Gill declares that since she gave Arlotte the money he has demanded $2,000 more. He said that he would take the money and go back to Italy and she believes that that, is his intention. \Anna Gill is the woman's maiden name and she has had experience with the law before. About 30 years ago she was maried to Frank Lervee in Watertown. He died. Then she mar- ried a man named Sullivan. In a case which she brought against the city for personal injuries she testified that Sullivan lived with her but three days, then decamped for parts unknown. She supposed that he was dead, and then she linked her hand and heart to those of a gallant named Abbott. Abbott, she discovered some time af- ter the ceremony, was already the husband of another woman. Then she left him, or rather compelled him to leave her under threats of exposure. •'Mrs. Gill is possessed of consider- able means. She formerly owned the property just south of Star park.whieh she sold to Lucrezia Glielmi, the wife of Antonio Glielmi. who is serving a life sentence m. Auburn.prison. The price she received for the place was $3'S00. _. ' . .,.•'' CHAPTER 6F\CRIMES. ' Surrogate Abbott of GouverneurSays That is What Republicans in This Section are Doing mi Hon, Yasco P. Abbott, of Gouver- neur, was in town Saturday evening and expressed his opinion on the branches of the McKinley league that had been organized in this section. He. said that it seemed like an effort on the part of some embryo poli- ticians, old men who should know bet- ter and yuung- law clerks who know- nothing at all, to get into the McKin- ley band-wagon. If the organizations had been effected before the primaries it would have been possible to have sent a McKinley delegate, but in the St. Lawrence district they did just the opposite tiring and sent W. L. Proc- tor, a splendid man, but the Piatt rep- resentative in Northern New York. If there was a hard fight before the con- vention, Mr. Proctor would undoubt- edly go with Piatt and the McKinley leagues in St. Lawrence county would aid the Ohio candidate about as much as a bathing .beach at Baffin's ba3' would aid the. Cuban insurgents. Clairvoyant bxammationtree. By Dr. E. F. Butterfield. There is no subject that requires so much study and experience as treatment and cure of chronic diseases. The astonishing success and remarkable cures per- formed by Dr. Butterfield are due to the gift of clairvoyance, to the long study of the constitution of man and the curing of diseases from natural remedies. Let those given up by oth- ers call for examination. He cures the worst eases of scrofula, catarrh, piles, female weakness, asthma, diseases of the heart, lungs and kidneys. Dr Butterfield will he at. the Wood- ruff house, Watertown, Monday and Tuesday, June 15 and 1(3, ISOfi; will leave at 5 p. m. Tuesday.

Thirty years ago Watertown could boast of a similar state of af- fairs, with this exception: The names of the places were different, for in- stead of being known as the -\North End\ or \South End\ the two sections were designated as the \Sandbanks\ and the \Swamp the \Sandbanks\ be-, ing- in the western part of the city and the \Swamp\ lying- towards the east. Each had its champion and each champion had his followers, and many a hard fought battle took place be- tween them in those good old days. But times have changed since then. The town at that period did not offer the attractions that it does now, and the younger element of both places were satisfied to colonize on their own stamping ground and it -was an ex- ceedingly ral'e thing to see a youtntul Sandbanker up in the city.proper ex- cept on the Fourth of July or some other great occasion. They had a lit- tle world all to themselves and a jolly world it \» as you can rest assured and one that they made the most of every hour in the day. Their pranks were of the same nature as that of tne ma- jority of bqys. A dandy they detested,, and if by any ehanoe one of those per- fumed gentry made his appearance amongst them in the twilight dim and gray he jnight consider himself mighty lucky if he got off merely with being \floured.\ Among tlie rnany happy characters of that time who played their jokes on young and old alike was one whom I will call \Billy\ and he used to go it to \beat the band.\ A peculiarity about \Bil- ly\ was his laugh. I t bubbled from his heart in a volume of sound so mirthful, so ' unctious, so con- tagious, that a man on the brink of the grave, once hearing it, would take another hitch in Life's trousers and hang on a little longer. BmVour \Billy\ had a niahia also, that of stretching ropes across the thorough-, fare in the. dusk of the early evening and watchmg the;.unwary pedestrian, come'down' t o Mother Earth, and! then it was that \Billy's\ laugh had. nine, innings alf'i-plled Into one,' One night,' however, this little pastifne brought hint; to grief.

Like other places of note, the Sand- banks had its lovers of baseball even in those early day's, and many a game was played in \Massey's\ field by the \Ked Hote,\ the \Prairie Chickens,\ the \Heavy Heels,\ and the \Wide- awakes.\ The scores of course were rather inclined to run high and the games were not as> scientific as they are now, but there was plenty of good batting and home runs and three-bag- gers were more numerous and, 1 ven- ture to say, there was less wrangling than is to be heard today in any pro- fessional game of the National league. The boys in those days played for fun, not for money, and didn't consider it work, hut pleasure. The Swamp was fully as well equipped with baseball material as the Sandbanks and had their own games on their own grounds. But time has brought great changes to both these places in more ways than one, and while we still re- member with affection the old scenes and the friendly faces, we caunot help but congratula-teeaeh'on the good feel- ing and harmonious relations which exist between them now as compared with bygone years. This change has been brought about in different ways. As the city g-rew larger and more at- tractive, the youth of both sections gradually worked away from the old haunts and met together under differ- ent auspices and better conditions and a healthier, broader acquaintance was the natural outcome between them. Intermarriage also has been one of the factors of this welcome change and the little god, Cupid, has worked won- ders in this respect. There is a, tendency, I am sorry to say, however, <m the part of some of our city reporters', who lcnow not whereof they speak, to belittle and slur one or, the other of these places in giving the details of some incident that comes under their observation, thereby leaving an Unhealthy impres- sion on the minds of the reading pub- lic as to the characteristics of the ma- jority of the people who livj in either of those parts. There may be some \hard cases\ in both sections, but you will find \hard cases\ in every part of- our city just the same, and further- more, many of these so-called \hard cases\ are the pampered darlings of fortune, whose names are withheld from the public eye and whose pecca- dillos are glossed over with the luster a.nd glitter of gold. The people in general of those two places are today respectable, God-fearing, intelligent people, and are worthy of that respect and esteem which is every honest person's clue, and which should be ac- . corded them fully and freely by the people of the city, who, perhaps, as I said before, have formed erroneous opinions from reading- some of the aforesaid misleading articles.
