of cltll-servlco reform, who has been lying

win avenues, since the latter part of June,

was patnles.
UKORdK WILLIAM CfRTIS.
Ur. F. U. Curtis, of West Newton, Mass.,
hit ton, was the only member or the family
pi esenl In the room when he died. '
The end hid been expected daily since the
latter part of July, when Mr. Curtis was
obliged to keep to his room. Ills wasting
disease, the nature of which is yet unknown
tu the pbyslc'sns In attendance, asserted
Itself at that time more strongly and bis phy
sicians adrtscd that, he be kept wtthla the
confines or bis bedroom.
What the particular form of malady was
could not be determined upon. The symp
toms were like those of cancer In tho stom
ach, and yet all tho characteristics of that
disease were not present.
Mr. Curtis fell away rapidly, though appar
ently retaining the full enjoyment of his
faculties, and It soon became apparent that
deatn was only a question of time.
Several leading specialists of Jtevr York
ttero called in, but they were unahlo to offer
a satisfactory diagnosis.
During tho past two weeks Mr. Curtis biul
been attended by Dr. Donovan, a female phy
tic! in of New Brighton, and her last visit was
) csterday afternoon.
'1 he rapid wasting away on the part of the
patient convinced her as well as Di. curtls
that death was only a question of a few
hours.
When death came this morning Mr. Curtis
as seated In a large cbalr In his bedioom.
Ills son. Dr. Curtis, was In the room. He had
noticed that the end was drawing near. The
tick man was In a semi-conscious condition.
I'or some time previous be had been mum
bling words to UUnseir, but desisted long
enough to answer questions put to blm.
Then he passed avrty as It falling Into a deep
lee p.
Dr. Curtis hurriedly roused his mother and
sister, w bo were asleep at the time, and tele
grams were sent to relatives ana mends con
veying the news of Mr. Curtis s death.
io an Kvkninu World reporter Dr. Curtis
said this morning that be was unable to state
what torm of atseaso caused bis father's
death. It might havo been cancer of the
btouiach, chronic peritonitis or tuberculosis.
wince his ratbei .s death, however, he had
become convinced that cancer of the stomach
wns not the caute ol death. W hat his dis
covery was that made him reach that con
clusion ho declined to state.
Dr. Curtis was also unable to state how the
death certificate would be made out. On Dr.
Donovan will devolve that task, aad though
that lady could not be found at her borne this
morning. It Is believed the assigned 'cause of
death will be tuberculosis.
'lue arrangements for the funeral which
win bo private, ore as yet Incomplete. The
funeral will in all probability take place next
Fitday afternoon, and the Jutermuiit will be
In the Moravian cemetery at New Dorp,
where Mr. Curtis some years ago purchased
a plot.

Mrs. Miller did not long survive the separa

years ot age.
In order to obtain legal possession ot the
child her grandfather, ex-Alderman Acker,

Frequently, a well-dressed woman has
noticed tbo child when out with its nurse,
and was walking away with It on one occa

Early this morning a man tried to effect an

BROOKLYN'S DIRTY STREETS.
Decaying- Garbage an Invitation to
Cholera.
re rl. r,IIUr
It the health officers of this big city are do
ing anythlug at all to pi event the dreadlul
disease from coming here, tnelr activity Is not
noticed where It is mest needed. Those
streets In Williamsburg which are Inhabited
by the poorer class remain as dirty as ever.
In every house there Is a number ot barrels
and boxes lull ot rotten peel of vegetables,
bones and eggs which breed pestilence and
poison the air.
In other times It might be said that those
barrels and boxes are awaiting the garbage
wagon which comes ln this neighborhood
once ln a week, butln a tlmo like this they
look much more like preparations for a recep
tion of a distinguished guest.
If, alter paying tbe salaries to orfr health
officers, there ts not money onoughlh the city
treasury to buy gsrbaze wagons and horses,
1 think that no rrsonable citizen would object
to be taxed a little more and have bis gar
rage taken away every day, especially In a
time like this.

A Delightful Performance of the
Comic Opera at Palmer'?.
The Author of l,otta's New I'luy
Never to lie Knows.
A truly drllihttul performance ot " Pa
tience" was given at Palmer's Theatre last
night. Mauager Askln Intends to rnn It
tor two weeks only, but ibere Is ho reason
why It should not run for two months, It the
public want anadmtiable ccmlc opera, well
sung, welt acted, and pleasingly staged.
Patience " Las not grown old. "1 he crae It
satlrUedtsdead. but the satire ItTCJ-kcen,
penetrating and Innocently amusing as ever.
Gilbert's lines still compel laughter, while
Sullivan's music Is thsprrttiest he has ever
written. Iho quaint stage biMnes-s, upon
which tec success ot tbe opera so largely
depends, was reverently adhered to by Mr
Asktn. Ihe Hunt home ot Henry K
Dlvey Is, rerbaps, tho best thing
ho has done. llo was legitimately
tunny, gracelul as ever, and completely at
his ease. Ullbcrt l'lmselt would havo rejoiced
to sec his peculiar hero so artistically Inter
preteiL In "Tho Too lntcnso Young Mau"
song Dlxey added a couple of verses ot his
own, but on the whole bis work was tree
ironi th horseplay otthe topical actor, till,
bert's text does not need tbe addition ct a
Hue. It pLiys Itself. Lcnore Snyder as Pa.
tlencewas very pretty and daluty, but bcr
voice Is very slender and she appeared td
have a slight cold. Walter Browne made an
excellent tirnsvenor, and Harold Ulak sing
well as the Duke. v Ilium McLaughlin camn
to grief In tltlbert's ratter soog. lie seemed
to mbor tinder the Impression that the words
were unnecessary, and that as long as he got
tho music It whs all light. Miss Wallace was
charming as Lady Angela. Tbe aud ence
w na greatly pleased.

It Is said that the production ot ".Tolly

will not appear In It again. Managers told
her Ihe) would welcomu Aunlo I'lxlcy with
out ' IMlly Middles," and perhaps endure
"Polly Middles" without Annie lixlcj.bui
they did not care for the combination.

Importance of President Curtis
Betainiug Hia Position.
National A. C. to Tender Skelly a
Grand Reception.
" lather Bill" rurtls. President ot the
Metropolitan ssoclallou, Is s.ild to bo con
lemplatlng resigning that office al ths nu.
nusl meeting ot the Association to be held
next month. For the sakeot tbo best good
otslblctlci It Is to be hoped that "Father
BUI" will be proallcd upou to remain where
be Is. as an athletic student put It tho other
ilayjjJAtblctlcj are Just a present al
UyJSta;o when the retirement or
Mr. curtls would mean that there
would be a decline ln tbo standard otthe
sport." That may lo putting 11 a little
strung. There aro other men Interested lu
amateur athletics who nre just as great
sticklers 101 straightforwardness as Mr.
Curtis, but there aro probably none who pos
sess 10 such an extent u combination of the
qualities inaklug him the best man for tho
place. It Is a case nt the office seeking tho
man a stalo or attain as rare In athletics as
in politics.
Three reasons are advaneed by friends of
the'prescnl Incumbent n by It should be In.
slstcd that he retain tbe PrcJldency ho Is a
nccgnlrcsl authorltr on everything In Ihe
athletic Hue ; be possesses Honesty, executive
ability 11 nd good judgment, and he Is a
representative of ono ot the recognlred
leading athletic clubs ot the country,
tho New York. The latter reason Is
by no means tbo least Import snt of the three,
A Picsldcnt ut a body should carry some
weight with hlui, and the representation of a
leading club gives him thai, ho It Is to be
hoped that "'Father Bill" will continue to be
a guiding hand for the Metropolitan Associ
ation tor a time, longer, al least.
it wns stated In these columns, j csterday,
thai If the Ulsnts lost ycterdsy's gaiuo they
would be on the f00 mark. It nasuot really
thought, however, that then' was any danger
ot their losing. Surely I hey tould not lose
two straight game? to Plttaburg. But base
ball, like a Oournment job, Is uncertain aud
one netcr knows what a day may bring forth,
Iho unexpected happened yesterday and
to-day the Wants aru tied with the chl.
csgosaad Loutsvlllcs for tho leadership ol
the second division. Yesterday's game Is all
the sadder to contemplate because there were
but tour errors snd tour hits. Bases on balls
and errors did it, but what worries home
cranks most Is thai the Olanu lost. The
score was 11 to 1.
At Louisville, whero Ihe Brooklyn played,
tbe West wss again triumphant, the Colonels
beating tbo (J rooms 7 tu t). in tact, every
Western club tbat played was victorious yes
terday. Cincinnati beat Boston, Chicago
beat Philadelphia, m, Louis beat Washing
ton, it was a tongh day for the effete Rast.
The following games are scheduled for
to-day ;
Mew York at Pltleborg . (Philadelphia at Chloeto.
lliooklf n at Loulivlllo. Hattlmore at Oleietand.
lleetsn at Cincinnati. Iwasli ton at St. Louie.
The National Athletic Club, of Brooklyn, Is
preparing tu give Jack Skelly a big resuption
on nu return from New Orleans. A meeting
will be held to-morrow evening to make tho
necessary arrangements. A letter was re
ceived by one of the (Tub members yesterday
from skelly, iu bleb Jack says ho Is too busy
training to write much, but takes tlmo to
reiterate that he Is In nrst-clasa condition.
Skclly's Brooklyn friends aru not inclined to
place much faith In the report that be Is
troubled w lth fever heat. " It's done to affect
tbe betting," they say. Tbe emblem of the
National A. C, a liberty cap, pierced by an
arrow, will adorn the colors hkelly will wear
when be meets Dixon. Tbe wearer's picture,
an American flag and a device ot red, white
and blue will be tbe Other adornments.
. .
Billy lleynoldi, the popular backer of
Skelly. has written it letter In which be ta) s
he thinks he knows w bat be is about in plac- I
lng S5.000 on bis mau. He Is convlnoed, ho '
says, that, barring accidents. Hkelly will win
from tbe colored uoy. He gives as his rea
sons thst ekelly has a longer reach,
Is taller, ran hit as bard and use his
bands as rapidly, lleynolds says Dixon will
not be so eager 10 rush utter be has been
checked a tew times by Hkelly. The Brooklyn
man has bet JVi.ooo at odds or :.') to 1 and Is
willing to Invest (5,000 more.
The relations between Tom O ItourUc,
Dixon's backer and handler, and Jimmy Car
roll seem to bo very strained. O'ltourkenow
offers, ll ts said, to bet f.'.BOO that Dixon
will whip Carroll ln a lour-round contest, on
tho samo night as tbe Dlxon-kelly dgbt,
prorlded the latter Is not tos long.
Fighting Is not the only game la which men
are willing to bark their opinions with coin.
There is a little lictttng being done or, at any
rate, money offered on Billy Meek against the
field lu the two-mile walk at tbe Columbia
A. c. games Labor Day. Whero are tbe

Shearman, by tho way, may make an en
deavor to lower Murray's half-mile walking
