The Fall IN Real Estate m New
York

The fall in the Real Estate in New York
has not quite begun yet; but it is coming,
and by spring it will be possible for man
to buy or rent house.at a reasonable fig
ure. Whatever you do, don't buy in New
York now. Already people are renting
furnished houses in fashionable localities
for $4,000 and $4,000, that, a year or so
ago, would have been cheap at $4,000 or
$4,000. lady friend of mine was looking
for house somewhere near Sixtieth street
and Madison avenue. She found lust the
thing she wanted for $4,000; so she came
home and told her husband all about in. In
few days he said to her: ';My dear, do
you really want that house. Because. if
you do, can get it for S25 1000" 1t had
fallen just $4,000 in less than a week. 1t
is about time for real estate to come down;
it has been at false values so long, how
ever, that it will be a hard struggle before
the landlords give in. Owners think moth
ing nowadays of asking $40, 900 for house
only Is feet wide, if it happens to be on
fashionable avenue. The consequence is,
a young business man will strain every
nerve to live in ms good house as the old
est merchant. OF course he cannot live in
such a house without having heavy ex.
penses; so he tolls and worries for the sake
of making show in the world, while his
feet rest on the merest shell, that a too sud-
den knock would crush in and bring him
to the ground. If there was none of this
false living and grasping after what is be-
yond the reach, there would be fewer pam

A York State Hermit.

Two miles south of Albion, N. Y, lives
a very singular person named Anthony
Trip, an old man between 10 and so years
of age. He lives within a mile and a half
of the Niagara Falls railroad, yet he has
never seen it, nor the locomotive whose
whistle he daily hears. For over half u
century he has dwelt by himself, doing all
his own household work. During all that
time no woman has crossed his threshold,
and, indeed, few men. If woman ap-
preached his premises, he would bar the
doors and take refuge in the cellar. With
men he would hold no intercourse, except
when absolutely necessary or unavoidable.
Latterly he seems to have taken even a
stronger antipathy to his fellow creatures,
hiding himself upon the approach OF any
person. When Anthony Trip was about
20 years of age, as the story runs, he tell
in love with pretty neighbor girl, and was
engaged to be married to her. But she
was tickle and Tilted him. From that time
his life was embittered. and he foreswore
woman kind. He was not one Of those who
think there are as good fish in the sea as
ever were caught. The talseness of this
girl partially craEed him, and he has since
dwelt apart from human kind. This should
be q warning to young women never TO jilt

A French Temperance Measure

A great feature of medieval rejoicings
was the agreeable condition of the public
fountains, which on great occasions ran
with wine. The same thing happened to the
Seine at Paris, nowadays, because it is the
custom ofthe municipal authorities to throw
unadulterated wine into it. A few days
ago, the waters of the Seine near Bercy
were seen to glow with crimson flush;
this was owing to the admixture of about
1910 hectolitres of condemned wine. A
correspondent calculates that as wiue, even
when adulterated, contains on an average
10 per cent of alcohol, which in Paris is
quoted at 20 francs the hectolitre, here was
a loss of II, $50 francs that the sum which
would have been paid on the wine as duty
would have amounted to A, 100 francs, so
that, deducting 1910 francs for cost of man
ufacture, etc, there remains dead loss to
the treasury Of $4,000 francs and that, as
adulterated wine is disposed ofin this man.
ner, every month, $4,000 are yearly
spent in turning the Seine into negus.

Death of II Famou. Rh,noceros

Paris has just sustained serious loss.
The great rhinoceros, Pericles, of the
Jardin des Plantes, is dead. He had been
an inhabitant of the garden for twenty-nine
years, having been brought from Africa in
1915. He was then without name and
received that of Perices in the following
manner The wife of the director of the
museum possessed very pretty little Gu
ban dog which bad been presented to her
by Queen Marie Amelie. and which bore
the classic name in question. The little
creature took great fancy to the rhinoce-
ros, and would frolic with it by the hour,
while the huge beast would permit itself to
be barked at and teased with perfect equa-
nimity. One day, in moving round the in
closure, he trod upon the dog and crushed
it. For two days he refused to eat, and in
memory of the accident. and of his repent
ance, his guardians bestowed upon him the
name of his defunct friend. He was twice
sentenced to death during the siege, but his
life was spared through the intercession of
one of the directors. His vast remains
were inferred in a curious cemetery which
exists at No. 81 Rue lie Button, and which
is no other than the official buryng- ground
of the Jardin DIES Plantes. There, among
other celebrities, reposes the first GRAFT ever
sent to Paris, and also the celebrated ele-
plant Chevrette, which was the gentlest
and most intelligent of all the elephants
which the Jardin has ever possessed.
There is an old keeper still in the service
of the museum who has never forgotten
Chevrctte and her accomplishments, and is
accustomed to relate with tears in his eyes
how nicely she would take bits of bread out
of his mouth and hold his pipe for him
while he lighted match. Oyer 700 bodies
have been inferred in this strange GEM
etery.

One would suppose, says the Albany
journal, that names of villages must have
been very scarce in the early history of
Granville, N. Y. as one was made to serve
for nearly all the villages in that town.
There is Granville, Middle Granville,
North Granville, South Granville, West
Granville, West Granville Corners, and it
may be other Granvillcs Persons not ac-
qualnted with the geography of the town
often become greatly confused in conse
quencc of this multiplication of its name.
In seeking for one place they often find
themselves set down at another several
miles from it, because it bears the same
name. 1t would be great deal better to
give every village but one a new name

ciety, as well as legislation which will pre-
vent convict like Tweed from retaining
the money he has taken from the public
treasury, while the prosecution of dishonest
officials should be lodged with the attorney
general. AS to the Erie canal Gov. Tiden
recommends the adoption of such measures
as will put in good condition and improve
the waterway, letting the subject of
the locks wait for further trial and scru-
tiny. He discusses the financial question al
length, urging a speedy return to specie
payments, and advocates economy in al

ALAw THAT'S WANTED.

Not long since the HERALD called
the attention. of the legislature to the
necessity of passing lawrequiring the
publication ofall legal notices, such as
sheriffs' sales, citations, administra-
tors notices and everything Of interest
involving rights or property. Tho
present mode of posting these legal
documents up on II bulletin board in
the county court house does not serve
the purpose of giving sufficient publici-
ty to them for the protection of parties
concerned, without the trouble of CO.
ing there to decipher them. The press
is now the only recognized means of
information which works practically
and satisfactorily. 1t is all well enough
as mere legal, technical form, but
such publication il insufficient, and
not in accordance with the spirit OF the
law and common justice. The news
paper affords the only regular and re-
liable means of reaching the public or
individual attention. 1t goes to the
public and the individual, aud tells
what is of interest, instead of having
parties remaining in ignorance, or else
eternally in front of the bulletin board
A short, concise law requiring the pub
lcation of these legal instruments in
one or more county papers having the
largest circulation, irrespective of poll
tics and party, would hest meet the
demand for information Oh matters in
litigation or under legal process.
