their course till near Eypn about mile
west of Hridport, and within half II mile Of
the sea, when, about S o'clock finding that
they were drifting rapidly seward, they
attempted to descend. The balloon came
down with great rapiaity and struck the
ground with much violence. Mr.. Gardner

REAL ESTATE in NEWPORT.

a Farm ,.""sh. 10, sis,ooe Now Worth
$i,6OO,O0o.
From the Newport Mercury
Tho late Governor William Beach Luw-
renee, in 1850, purchased of Ueorao Arm
strong and others the magnificent Ochre
Point property, comprising sixty acres, for
$12, On the estate there was the old
farm house, which is still standing near the
greenhouse on the Lawrence homestead
property. Governor Lawrence set about
improving his estate, and erected the pres
ent mansion, which was a fine residence
for the Newport of that day. lie came
here to live, and resided ts,ego for many
years. }fo one time not very long nfter
acquiring the property, wh' hard pressed
for ready money. and offered the estate 10
Alfred Smith for $11. 900 Six months
after he offered it q second time, this time
raising thu price to $780, 900. Mr.. Smith de-
clined to invest. and Governor Lawrence
retained the estate, which continued TO in
crease rapidly in value, with the general
and wonderful advance in Newport real es-
tate that came with its developement into n
cottage summer resort for the cultured
and wealthy class in our country.
The amount realized by Governor Law
renee from his $12, 900 farm was Sl7G, ,i2f.-
~, and since his death the sales aggregate
$685., 222. 50, making tho total sum $780,
64S.97. This is pretty fair profit to make
in thirty years on M investment Of !Sl2, 900.
When the farm was sold some fifty years
or more ago for S4G5, little did seller or
buyer imagine that its value would he
counted in millions. Taking into consid-
e,ation the improvements and valuing the
land on tho basis of recent sales, it is not
extravagant to estimate the present value of
the sixty acres, and the villas on it, at not
much less than 81, 10000 Verify, New
port has made some progress, despite the
venerable pessimists who look back regret
fully Mt the good old times.

Some F'renclly N0llo 8.

"Why," asks LIZ .Cho,1rari, do men
cling to their wives2" For various reasons.
Through habit, as one likes the cozy arm
chair he is always certain to find in the one
place Oh coming home. Through economy:
you could not hiro servant who would not
cost yon twice as much and serve you only
half as we'll. Through love of peace: sep
"r"tion wonld cause 40 much scandal, and
create so much trouble. Through imita-
ton: everybody else sticks to his wife, 80
one must do like the balance. Through
decorum: it makes man respectable.
Through philosophy: alI women resemble
each other. Through petty vanity: because
everybody says. "Oh, what splendid wo-
mani" Through remorse Of CONSCIENCE
''Poor little woman. it is mol her fault that
am tired Of her. And finally strange to
say, man sometimes early in his welded
life clings to his wife through love.

Comfort In a SleeDinx Car.

A traveller gives these three rules for COM
fort in sleeping car: l. Get berth in
the fore part of the car. This is because
the pure air comes id OF the front end and
windows and goes out at the rear end and
windows. Ialways take the front upper
berth. My reason for taking the upper
berth is, because it Is freely ventilated and
away from the hot pipes. 2. Have your
berth made head toward the engine. This
will keep all drafts of air from your head
and prevent taking cold. If the car is very
tight put lead pencil under the window
at your feet in case of lower berth; or, in
case Of the upper berth, open the hind-sky
window at your feet. 3. Fix your pillow
IN one corner Of the berth, and your feet in
the other. BY laying crosswise you will
not roll in your hsrth.

boiled mine two degrees Fab. lighter
Now let Inc give my conclusions: The
stalk is short and thick, and the seed tuft
light; it will not blow down, making the
cost of stripping and cutting much less
than the amber and it handled quite Well
without binding; it will make more syrup
of better color and flavor than the amber.
The only objection to it is, that it is late
