Brooklyn made a brave showing at tte hearing on
Wednesday on tie CSBBOlldallS* bill before Ik* tW* j
Committees on Cities at Albany. Tbs SeleSBtlon j
whlrh went to thc capital to urge the paBBSgi "I Ita

who are well know* and Influential The arguments
which they presented In favor of allotting the people
to vote ta the Bjaratbm af ooa-oBdstlon' wer.gent
and well put, and. if the m.intiers of the LegfotatUN
were free agents would be convincing. OB tb" other
side nothing was paid ex ???pt by Senator McCerren,
WhOS" elaborate speech dealt wlt'l Hie question of
consolidation Itself, and not with tte question now
before the Legislature. Why Ita COBBObtallonlBta, a*

union regardless of ihi* voice of the people aa ex?

Mr. Hendrix's term as a member of Congram hav?
ing begun, he has promptly resigned from thc Hoard
Of F-duentlon, and hi* place hits been lilb*d by an ap?
pointment nuide by Mayor Boody. His resignation,
Of course, leaves a vacancy In thc presidency of the
board. There wns a luther animated contest last
summer Bree lida eB-Ce, an ellort being made to ou.st
Mr. Hendrix, who had Siled tta place for live years.
The candidate of Ita spposMoa ut that tim" ls a can?

Park Commissioner Browse reperfo that he has no
funds available to meet the expense of the removal
of Mr. Beecher's statue to Straped Park. Ita money
ought to be promptly provided, so that Ita transfer
can be accomplished during Ibe spring or earlv in the
summer. It would not be inappropriate lo have lt
take place on June '24, te anniversary of Mr. lie*.-li?
er's birth. At thal time the statue will have stood In
front of the City Hall, gn/.lng at Ita look) pillars '
Of that building," for Just two years. By the way,

by the Hrooklyn institut'' on that date, and Hr. Lyman

Boss McL.incl.lln has various titles to distinc?
tion. One of them is that he mikes lt an invariable
rule never to sign a petition, tio matter how worthy
the object In view nor how much interested T"e may
be in lt. lt was this raia whick prevented him from
signing the peiltinn asking for lae removal of tlie
Beecher statue from Its present -position.
It seems rather late in the aaaeea for the police to
make a proclamation that all boys who Indulge tri
snowballing In Hie streets will bc arrested. Buch a
prodsmatlon ought to have been made at the tagia*
Ding of the year, and resolutely tarried out. Throw*
Ing snowballs ls a gnat nuisance, but lt ls practised
regularly bv schoolboys, and they care lit tl" who mav
bo struck by their missiles. One of the worst forms of
the nuisance ls the flinging of the balls Into open
windows. An open window BCOBM to have an Irre
Blstlble attraction for tte average boy of the perl.*!
in Hrooklyn. As many windows are opened In the
morning Jor purposes of ventilation, boys on their way
to school find numerous opportunities for Indulging this
propensity. Another winter it ls to be hoped that
th" police will not walt until the la--t snow of tbe
season is melting before taking etegfl to put a stop to
tills liul-iillie. _
