FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS AN ACRE
A New York correspondent states that Tin
the more common streets of New York land
is worth from two hundred and fifty thou
sand dollars to three hundred and fifty
thousand dollars per acre. Iu the best part
Of Broadway its value is increased to two
million dollars per acre but in the vicinity
of Wall street its value is immensely
increased because this locality is the money
heart of America The land on which the
Dresel building stands cost it present own
ers at the rate Of fourteen million dollars
per acre. 1t occupies the corner of Wall and
Broad streets, which may be considered the
most valuable corner ON this continent-and
vet, when I was Broad street clerk, in
1910, this very place was occupied by hat
store. The corresponding value of property
in this neighborhood has been illustrated by
the recent sale at the corner of Broad
street and Exchange place, which was at
the rate of fifteen million five hundred
thousand dollars per acre. Hence the
Drexel lot was Hone too dear. In fact
these dazzling figures are justified by the
immensity of the transactions which occur
here daily. Almost all the railroads on The
continent Except New England) are man
aged within three hundred feet of this spot
and the general pressure of our immense
financial system gives it a value which
few years ago could not have been dream

CAGING THEIR GIRLS.-United States
Consul Griffin, of Sydney, brother of Mary
Anderson's tep-fstber, has made some ex-
haustve studies OF the Inhabitants of New
Britain, IAN island in tho South Pacific ocean,
and gives tho State Department the benefit
of his researches Among other things he
SAYS that the inhabitants have tho custom of
combining their girls in cages until they are
old enough to marry. This custom, he gays,
is peculiar to that island and without par
allel among the other inhabitants of the
South Seas. These girl cages are made OF
tTgs CT the palm tree and the girls are put
icto them when they are only two or three
years Of age. These cages are built inside
the houses and the girls are never allowed
to leave the house under any circumstances,
and are only taken out of the cages once a
day to be washed The houses themselves
are closely fenced in with q sort of wicker
work made of reeds. Ventilation under the
circumstances is rendered difficult. The
girls are said to grow up strong and health
ful in spite Of these disadvantages. The
natives are very fond Of jewe!ry made OF
she'll or bone. Both men and women are
entirely nude, except small strip of bark
or leaves around the loins. They have
thick, black curly hair, large flat noses and
symmetrical bodies They display great
fondness for feathers of gaudy colors, with
which they decorate their heads. Some
times they wear helmet or head-dress,
about eighteen inches in height, made of
bark aud seaweeds, and ornamented with
shells, cat's-eyes, sc.

SUSPENDED FROM THE MINISTRY.

The Rev. J. L. Bagwell is one of the mcst
eloquent diyines of the North Carolina
Methodist Conference. He is the most
sought after by the different churches of
any preacher in the Methodist church. He
has been stationed at Goldsborough, Char.
lotte, and until few days ago was in charge
of the church at Winston. He is very
handsome man, and soon after taking charge
OF the church there, he became enamored
of lovely Mrs. Potiphar, but unlike Joseph
Of old, instead ofleaving his garment in her
hands he left the tatters Of sanity reputa-
tion The woman for whom Mr.. Bagwell
sacrificed name and reputation is known as
"grass widow" and is beautiful and at
tractivc. She was an attendant Of MIR. Bag.
Wells church, and here they became &C.
quainted. 1t was not long before il was
noticed that the minister was partial TO
this sister, and that he sought every
possible occasion to be in her company.
Some time ago tho officers of the church
demonstrated with the preacher and told him
that his conduct was the subject Of remark,
and that he must desist. Mr.. Bagwell de.
clared that there was nothing criminal, and
that he liked her company and did not in
tend to stop his attentions. Nnen tne fre-
siding Elder of the district came to Winston
be privately reprimanded Mr. Bagwell, but
this did no good. Last week the woman IN
question was absent from town without the
knowledge of her reverend lover and he
wrote her very endearing letter that fell
into the hands of her father He broke it
open, and on reading the contents he search.
ed in his daughters apartments and found
q number of letters written by Mr.. Bagwell,
all showing the closest intimacy, and also an
arrangement for Mr.. Bagwell 10 meet his
lady love at Danville, Va, on his way to
the conference and on his return home.
The father laid these letters before the
church and committee of investigation
was appointed upon whose report MIR. Bag.
we'll was suspended from the ministry and
driven away from Winston in disgrace.
When the General Conference meets he will
be expelled from the church. 1t now turns
out that in his young days the reverend
gentleman was not above suspicion. Mr..
Bagwell is about IS years of age and has a
wife and several children. The Raleigh
church is known as the crack church of the
conference and Mr. Bagwell would have
been sent there next. His was also the most
prominent name mentioned for the Presi-
dency of Trinity College, the seat OF learn
ing of the Methodist denomination Of North
Carolina.

This Picture aud That.

1t was from Warwick township, we be-
lieve, that half dozen tramps were sent
to the penitentary TO serve three years, ut
hard labor, in separate and solitary con-
6nement. because constables intent on max
ing fees had found them by the wayside
without friends, or home, or work and
because they had built a fire on the ground
where nobody objected. Judge Patterson
sentenced them; and il was said in ralliation
of this stern enforcement of brutal law
that the farmers and other citizens out
that way demanded radiance of the tramp
nuisance.
Upon the allegation of gross frauds in
the recent primaries of Warwick township
is held up the election of nearly fourteen
thousand voters, as to who shall be their
candidate for prosecuting officer of the law
here; and, whoever gets it, his commission
will be tainted with fraud.

lT is difficult to get at the true inwardness
OF the home rule situation in the English
Parliament one day We learn that the
Irish cause is booming therein, and almost
the next day comes the news OF a serious set
back. The latest rumOr abroad is that the
Gladstone cabinet have brought enough pres
sure on their chief to induce him to
make concessions to the disatfected Lib.
erals, to save the home rule bill from defeat
on its second reading. According to this, the
government will, if successful in passing the
second reading OF the bill, Withdraw it and
bring it up from the committee stage later
when objections will be dealt with open
mindedly. Evidently the home rule victory
