After Serving 2? Years in Sing Wing Sccs Light Again. NevK'Yort , September 26.-Away from the w arid for a Quarter of a century,, cloved in by cold stone walls, then sud?et/.ly set free to breathe clear air, to fee) the bright sunlight . and see the monuments to Progress erected in a great city, was the expe rience 6f Michael Hackett, former New Yprk policeman, who was lib erated jfrom Sing Slng<p'risou to-day after serving twenty-five years of a lifo sentence for murder. In all those . yours Hackett had caught po glimpse of th? outside world and had obtained all bia im pressions of its advancomnt from oe-' casionat papers and magazines. In 1882 there, were no ?kyscrapers, trol-* ley care or automobiles and Hackett's sudjjft. plunge into the heart jf tho citywjja Uko a visit to another world. Uko a child he gazed, wondered and asked questions. "Waft that an automobile that flashed by? What funny noises lt makes! .Is that the 'gasoline smell'? How fast can it run? You see I ?over ?aw one before," he explained to B. J. Sullivan, secretary to Mrs. Wallington Booth, who was taking ilacketttto temporary quarters at the Volunteers of Araerca Home. Volunteers ot America Home, exclaimed. Then his next remark be trayed the fact that he had been in the world before. "Of course, the women themselves are lovely," he said, "but I don't like their clothes. Those rich colors are too flashy, the skirts are queer, and those big hats make them appear topheavy. I think the women of 25 years ago were more becomingly attired and looked sweeter." Some of Hackett's experiences were pathetic. He hadn't had a pocket In his clothes in 25 years, and he felt !about in constant fear that he would losqy he things he was carrying. His derby hat made his head ache, and when he took his first look at tbe big skyscrapers the light hurt his eyes. -,,?. v_ Do you know that Pinesalve Car bollzed acU like a poultice in drawing ont inflammation and poison?

New York, September 24.-Samuel Sloan, chairman of the Board of Di rectors of the Delavrare, Lackawanna and WOK tern Railroad, aud ex-presi dent of th? road, who has just died at his summer home at Garrison-ou the-Hudson, spent 60 of his 89 years of lifo In active railroad work and only ceased to be engaged in it a j short time before his death. In his long career, he joined forces one time or anothor, with men whose names are conspicuous in the finan cial history of New York. At -one time or another he was directly asso ciated with Jay Gould, Russell Sage, Commodore Vanderbilt and others, and he outlived them all and was still at work long after a second, and in the case of the Vanderbilt*), even a third generation, had succeeded the men with whom he had been associa ted. Mr. Sloan's interests were large, and he will always be remembered tor his presidency of the Lackawan na. It was a relatively unimportant road when he became ita head, but he built up until its stock sold very high, really higher than that of any other railroad in the country. He was a man bf marked charac teristics. Not the least of these was he who made the Lackawanna con spicuous during his administration because of its having no Sunday trains. "I would not 'ork myself on Sun day," was his explanation, "and I do not see why the men under me should be made to work on Sunday." Vacations weie unknown to the head of the Lackawanna road. It was not that he was opposed to them but he said: "I was too busy wnen first went to work keeping my job to have time for vacations, and later I was' too busy with my work to have any." He preached what he did not prac tice in this respect, however, for he told young men that vacations were a modern improvement of which they ought to make full use. Mr. Sloan believed also firmly that good work had Its reward. "Any young mac of. fair ability, ' he said a few years ago, "who ls honest and industrious, cannot only make a liv ing, but a fortune in New York, in spite of the great competition he .'o'" Mr. Sloan was loyal to Ireland, hla native land, all of his long life, and he was delighted four years ago to be elected a member of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick. In 1897 the employees of the Lack awanna road presented him with a solid gold tea set, which is said to have cost 9100,000. Notice to Oar Customers.

Pekin, September ?4-The ap j point men t of Wu Ting Fang to his [former post as minister at Washing ton was gazetted to-day. The appointment was made late yes terday.
