The directors were very en¬ thusiastic over it. The board appoint¬ ed a committee composed of Randall, Ellison, Nygren and Cutler to ascer¬ tain the coat and call a special meeting of the club to diacusa the acheme and believe me, there will be some di.scua- sioii and not a few suggestions.
A very pretty little dance was held in the hall last F'riday night and while the attendance was email the music was good and a very enjoyable evening was spent by thoae present.

A. \i. Wallace, running fur Police .lustiee at the primary Wednesday night, paiti me a pretty compliment, wiun he issued a circular thnnigh the mails III which he said :
".Messrs. Edwards and Johnson, through the Nassau County Review and South Side .Messenger were given the privilege of publishing a personal sketch, and as the same privilege was nut extended to me by the publisher, I submit a brief sketch, etc."
In other words he did not coiisider the sketch he ran in his own paper, "top of Column, leaded," was of as much value aa a sketch in the Review ; would have been.
He says I did not "extend" him the : Jirivilege of |iiiblishing hia sketch, etc. Aa a fact Wallace was in my ollice be¬ fore my paper came out and promised to send me a sketch of himself, as he said, "to see if I would publish it," but I did not receive it nor hear any¬ thing further of it till his circular came to hand thru the mail.
Lieutenant Raynor wishes me to ex ^ plain the statement in the Keview last j <^'''U»'<^1'. Brooklyn week :
"Police affairs have been going rather topsy turvey without any captain since Dunbar's resignation."
He probably thought the Village Board meeting was the proper plac
Anri by the way Lieutenant Raynor being ao insistent as tu what I meant by topsy turvy conilitiuns regarding police affairs, I might reniark that conditions that will permit the man nominally in charge of the police to al- Itiw a gathering of several hundred men assembled for the purpose of vot- ng, wilbiiiit having an oliicer to help in forming lines necessary to expeilite the work, until conditions are so topsy¬ turvy that one of the village trusteea has to go out an.l hunt up an officer to straighten affairs mit, while he, the said man in charge of the police de¬ partment, is outside distributing bal¬ lots for a candidate for an ollice closely connected with the police department, seems to me to lie within the meaning of my statement. ¦^

I really regret to he obliged to write this but as Mr. Raynor brought up the matter before the reporters for other papiT.s, wbo will [irobably make com¬ ment on it, I feel that 1 must explain somewhat of what I meant.
I can appreciate the position of Lieu¬ tenant Raynor in this matter and hia desire fur the office of police captain but having brought up the matter as fTe has 1 must remark in plain English that I think a man who has a salary from the village as nigbt ofiicer shoulil not be in charge of the prdice force for the reason that he already h;is hie share of the police work and for thc extra reason that as we understanil it, he is paid to be at the station hnuse tri ans¬ wer calls and couiri not at fhe same time be out placing men on duty, as c:Hptbin.

He says I did not "extend" him the : Jirivilege of iiiblishing hia sketch, etc. Aa a fact Wallace was in my ollice be¬ fore my paper came out and promised to send me a sketch of himself, as he said, "to see if I would publish it" but I did not receive it nor hear any¬ thing further of it till his circular came to hand thru the mail.
