Old Saint Nicholas is really converted I Once upon a time he thought that nothing was too inartistic or useless for the children. Just fill the Blockings," said he.

The committee of the Board of Aldermen on Public lands held a meeting last night in the City Hall to hear protests against the extension of the Washington Cemetery on the Ocean Parkway for a distance of 1,000 feet along the parkway, taking intho stretch of woods that lies just to the north of Minden's Hotel. The cemetery, which is for Jews, is fast filling np.

A protest signed by most of the residents in the vicinity was presented by Mr. Allen. Lawyer O'Reilly appeared in behalf of Mr. Minden, and the latter also spoke for himself. A number of property owners also opposed the grant, and D.

B. Van Vleck, one of a committee from the Good Roads Association presented the protest of that organization, which objected to the extention, as it would militate against the beauty of the boulevard, in the preservation of which cyolists and horsemen generally are interested. Lawyer New hall appeared for the cemetery people. Alderman Leich championed tne cause of the protestants and opposed any delay, and finally on his motion the request for permission to extend the cemetary was refused. The thirty or more people who listened to the hearing applauded the announcement of the result.

Alderman Mes singer, chairman of the committee, presided at the hearing. ANSON HAS NOT RESIGNED. A "star" boarder figured largely in two cases tried In the Gates Avenue Police Court this morning, and when they were finished Judge Worth told the husband of the woman who kept the boarder to get his big brother or tomb other strong man and go home and get rid of the star boarder. Mr. and Mrs.

John Houlihan lived happily together at 2,726 Fulton street, Mr. Houlihan said to the court, until his wife became acquainted with a conductor on the Brooklyn Elevated Railroad, named William McKee. Trouble ensued and he Anally left the house and McKee was promptly installed as boarder, and had been there ever since. He went to his wife's house to expostulate with her on Thursday night of list week, and McKee punched him in the face and threw him out of his own house. This morning he made a charge of assault against McKee.

Mrs. Houlihan had previously made a charge of assault against her husband, and this case was tried and Houlihan was acquitted. McKee appeared as a witness for her and told the judge that he had gone to the house as a peacemaker and his conduct there was perfectly correct. Mrs. Houlihan took the stand to day.

"Why do you keep this man In your house?" asked the judge. "Because he pays me $5 a week and my The Merchants Association Interests Itself in That Legislation. Tha Merchants' Association has prepared, and is sending, to each of Its twenty seven thousand and odd non resident members a letter announcing the position taken by the officers and directors of the Merchants' Association on the Anti Scalping bill, which Ls now in Congress, and asking each one of such membrs to co operate in the work of aiding in tho passage of that bill. A copy of that letter was sent last night to each member of both houses of Congress, and there was also sent to each Congressman and Senator a copy of the letter addressed a few days ago to Senator Cullom, the chairman of the senate committee on interstate commerce, to Mr. Hepburn, the chairman of the house committee on interstate commerce, and to each member of the two committees respectively.

If necessary, the president of the Merchants' Association, Mr. William F. King, will appear before these committees at Washington and argue for the passage of the bill. The officers of the Merchants' Association were active In obtaining the passage of a similar bill at the last session of tho legislature in this state, and in urging and obtaining the signature of tho Governor to that bill.

Spalding Denies the Rumor Regarding Chicago's Captain.

A. G. Spalding and Adrian Anson of the Chicago Base Ball Club arrived this morning on the North German Lloyd steamer Saale. Mr. Spalding, when seen In his office at 126 Nassau street, shortly after his arrival, said the fact of his going to London four weeks ago in company with Captain Anson had no significance whatever from a base ball point of view.

"I went over for a two weeks' visit on business," said Mr. Spalding, "and was surprised to learn while In London of the rumor circulated here to the effect that Captain An day the grand celebration win take place. On that day the main altar will be consecrated by the Right Rev. Charles E. McDonnell of this diocese.

The consecration services will begin at 8 o'clock In the morning and will three hours. This will not interfere with the regular services of the church, as a curtain will he drawn across the front of the altar while the rite is being performed and the regular Sunday masses will be celebrated at the side altars. Ait 11 o'clock, however, the grand services will take place, when a pon'tlflcial high mass will be celebrated by his excellency, the Meet Rev. Sebastian the apostolic delegate. The sermcn will be preached by the Rev.

Patrick A. Halpln, S. of St. Francis Xavler's Church, Wast Sixteenth street, New York. In 'the evening it is expected that Bishop Ludden will be the celebrant at the pontifical vesper oervice.

The preacher wHl be 'the Very Rev. Mgr. B. S. Conaty, the rector of the Catholic University at 'Washingiicn, D.

C. In regard to the altars, it can be said on the best authority that they are unequaled. The architects and builders have been At wcrk en them for about 'three years, and for aibout fourteen months workmen have been engaged erecting them in the church. It is estlma'ted tha't the erst of the altars will be something over $50,000. The exact figure could not be learned, but 1': is said that the entire expense Is to be defrayed by two wealthy memSers of the congregation.

TAKE LARQB PASSENGER ELEVATORS TO FOURTH FLOOR EAOLB BUILDING IN WASHINGTON STREET. SHE HAD REMARRIED. A Brooklyn Woman and Two Men Arrested for Collecting Pension Money.

Mary A. Haggerty, Smitfh B. Lawrence and Joseph Lewis were arrested yesterday by Deputy United States Marshal Charles Koch on a charge of fraud In obtaining a pension payment on August 4 last. The woman is tho widow of Bernard Haggerty, a veteran of the late war, and it is charged bat on July 4 she remarried and is now Mrs. Smith B.

Lawrence, living with her present husband at the address given. If a woman remarried she loses her pension under the United States statute, but it seems that Mrs. Lawrence collected the quarterly amount due her on August 4 and the witnesses were her present husband and Joseph Lewis of 171 Fifteenth street. The two men were arrested as accomplices and all three were arraigned before United Stats Commissioner Oakey this morning. Mrs.

Lawrence, as the papers had her name, wanted to plead guilty to the charges, but as she had no lawyer the commissioner held her with tho others for oxamination on December 21.

"I have three children to take care of." "How much would your husband give you?" was asked. "Only a dollar a day," was the reply.

"That Is more than $5 a week," eaid the Judge. The testimony showed that Houlihan went to hlB home on 'the night i'n question and ordered McKee out, and Che latter struck him in the face. MeKee eaid thai: he put his hand on the man's face, when told to leave. The udge found McKee guilty and fined "him $15. The latter paid the money and Chen Judge Worth said to Houlihan: "If you have got a big brother who is stronger than you are, you better take him home with you and adjust your domestic affairs In accordance with the conventionalities of society." MoKee asked the judge if he was compelled to leave Houlihan's house.

The magistrate replied: "No; you have not got to leave, as there is no law to compel you to; but If you take my advice you will get out. If you want to make peace between this man and his wife, the best way to do It Is to leave them. It strikes me you are the disturbing element in their married life." Veterans Weary Waiting for the City to Do Its Duty. Considerable surprise has been expressed in veteran quarters as to why the Fourteenth Regiment Veteran Asosciatiou does not occupy the room assigned to it in the new am. ory.

The utmost good feeling prevails between the active regiment and the veterans. son was about to resign from the captaincy of the Chicago Base Ball Club, with which he has been associated In one capacity or another during the last twenty two years. That rumor of the intended resignation of Captain Anson must have originated from the fact that Captain Anson's ten year contract with the Chicago Base Ball Club expires this year. It Is now a matter of negotiation and not of resignation between Captain Anson and the base ball club of which he Is captain." BRITISH STEAMER DAMAGED.
