It wa a fine time of it that the Democrat of the Twenty-first Assembly District had at their commodious clubhouse, at No. 133 New Jersey avenue, last night. In fact, it was about the best time that the members of the club have had in a long while, and the ssct that there is some opposition to the present leader, John Ma-guire, aerved to attract a still larger crowd.

"Regulars" and their opponents were present. The affair was in the way of a "stag" and "smoker." Mr. Maguire was on hand himself all evening, as were all his trusted lieutenants. During the evening he made a few remarks. The committee that had the affair in charge saw to it that the member and guest enjoyed themselves in every respect.

You also stated that you bad absolutely no knowledge ns to whether during the past winter the street railways had used snow ploughs on their roadbeds during storm or had thrown any snow from their tracks on the adjoining streets, or whether the city had been put to any expense in removing such snow.

"Subsequently in a conversation which 1 had with Mr, Bicbard B. Chittenden, of the Corporation Counsel's office, who had charge of the colloceting of the snow removal bills, which were presented by you for the winter of '97 and '98, Mr. Chittenden stated that the reawn why those bills bad not been pressed against the railway companies was that no proof bad been furnished by your department of the use by street railway of i)ow ploughs, or of the fact thnt th schools of the borough of Brooklyn from and after Jan. 1, 1900. choruses of the more popular songs; and if anyone there 'did not have a good time, it was his own fault as well as his misfortune.

Ex-Aseemblyman Herman Torborg made a hit by singing an original song to the air of "The Man Who Broke the- Bank at Monte Carlo." The song recited some of the particulars of the recent election, when Torborg was defeated for re-election by four votes. The first chorus of the song went in this way: "A I walked along throughout the wart With a very friendly air You could hear the folks declare, Well, he'i certainly "all you could hear them algh And then they'd cry And alto wink the other eye At the man they thought would represent the district.

Mr. Freifeld said that he was in favor of adopting the report without amendment. To equalize the salaries, the work should be begun at the top instead of at the bottom.

The task of the committee was to anticipate conditions that were sure to come, and the principals should submit gracefully to a condition that confronts the humblest teacher. He closed bis remarks by saying that the report wa superior to any local committee and should be adopted as a whole.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Rules.
