EMPTY CASTLES.
THEIR RICH OWNERS NOT FITTED
TO BE COUNTRY GENTLEMEN.

II Is One Thing to Have n Country
Seat" and Quite Another Thing to be
at Home aud Happy In It-A Remark
able Exhibit.
There is u tendency among men of large
wealth. said real estate dealer down
town, ''to establish big country houses
near New York and live after the English
fashion. They seek to make their country
place the home Of the family, give it II
high sounding title, dream of establish
ing n family which shall stand high in the
county and make n name for itself in n
dozen honorable ways. They take II fur
nished house in town for the season, just
MS the Englishman does for eight weeks
in london This is growing more prac-
ticable here thar formerly, as the season
grows shorter every year. We can all of
us remember when society came back to
New York on Sept. l and stayed till
June. Now November is considered early,
December acceptable, but Jan. l the
really proper time. This gives an oppor-
tunity for spending Christmas at the
country house in the old fashioned way.
by May 10 half of society is on the move
ngain to Europe or elsewhere. So, you
see, II great city establishment is sup
ported all the year round by the old plan,
though occupied less han five months out
of the twelve. 1t is very expensive run
ming IA town house all the year round this
way, but when II furnished dwelling is
taken and only four months are spent here
the expenditure is greatly reduced. The
other eight months are spent ut the coun
try house.
THE TROUBLE WITH AMERICANS.
"On the other side of the water this
is easily accomplished, because the real
home of an Englishman is in tho
country, and he looks upon city life as an
excursion. The trouble here is hat
Americans look upon their out-of-towt
life rs n vacation in the country, am.
hence they grow dissatisfied if it is too
much prolonged. They feel themselves
above their neiehbors L do not max
acquaintances, SO that there is no visit
ing and calling among them. Thus the
family gradually bores itself to despera-
ton. Friends are invited out from town
only Mt rare intervals, and there is n gen.
eral stagnation. The women do not in
terest themselves in the churches and
schools of the villages nor do the men take
Il hand in politics or local improvements.
Thu head of the family is usually Il busi-
ness man who has been accustomed to the
drive and rush of the city, and who is
quite at sea if thrown on his own re
sources lie has no inclination for read-
ing, is not Interested in farming, and
thinks constantly about his interests in
the city. If it takes three generations to
make II gentleman, it takes five ut least
to make II country gentleman or II gentle
man farmer.

away from New York the residents
make their own society, and are content.
Such places as New Haven, Hartford,
Elmira, and other small cities often have
delightfully."- cultivated and cordial so

very unsatisfactory, beceuse they are
made up of boardine houses, commuters,
and sump-ei .ssidcnts only. Now Wen
run through this book-and it is only one
of eight devoted to this style of property
and you'll see what remarkable failures
n few hundred of our ambitious million
aires have made.

lection Of ston palaces, castles, rambling
old gable rooted houses, picturesque viii
rs and Queen Anne dwellings did not

thing ubout the collection to the average
citizen was the mou Of money
spent on every place. The agent had
been particular to get at the actual
capital expended in every instance,
rs that was the only basis on which
n price could he set in localities
with which he was unfamiliar. A
place that had cost less than SO, 900 or

In addition to this opposition the citi-
zeEs ofsofa are divided on the question
aud the conflict between them promises
to be serious as one faction warmlv

THE END sor YER.

Pke'releE5e of Editor Cutting 5y the
order OF the Chihuahua Supreme Court
does not IN the leRzt affect the question
involved. II Secretary Bayard were
right N the demsad which he made for
the Immediate release of Cutting, thea
the Secretary must now maze apother
demand, TO the effect that Mexico apollo
gize 10 this government and handsomely
Indemnify the editor. If this second
demand be not promptly complied with
there can be but one course for the
United States to pursue, and that is to
cross the Rio Grande with the men
and weapons necessary to enforce the
respect which has been denied. Cutting
as an individual is of not the slightest
consequence to either Country in the
controversy which be has created. Ali
the United States has 20 know is that
one Of its citizens was unlRwfuIly ar
rested by Mexico and subjected to in
dignIties; the character of the citizen
and his offense cannot be taken into
consideration by either country, pro-
Vided that offense was not properly |
punishable by Mexican law.
The unfortunate part of the business
is the fear that NJ. Bayard was too
hasty in his demand Cor the surrender of
Cutting. If it should turn out that
Mexico went outside neither of the law
nor of international prophecies in
arresting, filming and imprisoning the
editor, this government will feel some
what cheap. and as II it would like to
have somebody lead it out behind the
barn and administer a few vigorous
kicks under its coat-<ail.
The business resolves itself into this
The American administration has been
trifling with serious matters, has been
playing craftsmanship while indulging in
boyism, or the government has a very
inportan. Guty TO perform before the
Cutting matter has been made right;
and so far as the performance OF that
duty is concerned Cutting might as
well have been left in q Mexican
prison as turned out in the manner that
he was. For the sake OF the good I
name OF this country it is to be hoped b
that the plumbers in this business have 4
not all been perpetrated on this side of I
The border, and thai the justice, the S
'tatesmansbip and generosity are not all 4

ANOTHER TIE UP.

New York is threatened with another
serious street-car strike. On Monday
new time table was to go into effect.
and it was noticed By the employees on
the Broadway line that six trips were to
be made hereafter instead Of five, the
number made in the past. To make
this extra trip they we're required to
start earlier on the first trip and later
on the last one This, of course, oc-
casioned some dissatisfaction among
drivers and conductors, as the number
Of trips was increased, and the hours of
labor heightened. while the wages re-
manned the same. They discussed the
matter and tie up Of all the cars on
the Broadway line was the result
Yesterday superintendent Newell paid
off 100 of the men on that line, and ad-
Vertised for uew men. Some fifteen
men were met on their way
to the Broadway stables by the dis
charge iempIoyees and treated v. olently.
The men on other lines are also com
planning. The loudest complaints from
the men on the Belt line, and three
roads known as the Forty-Second
Street lines. Discharges for frivolous
causes of union men, increased hours
FOR work, and decreased wages, together
with changes in the new time tables,
are given as the causes of their dissatis-
faction.

TIE DENocRATs OF the First Virgins

TO declare themselves whatever course
Others may pursue as matter of policy.

framed and adopted q solid and sub

tern, and among other things heartily
endorsed and approved Of the effort
made By the majority Of the Demo

revise the oppressive war tariff which
has so long weighed upon the energies

WHAT HIGH tariff does for this coun
try IN the matter of steel rails is illus
trated by the figures. II bought in
pennsylvania the rails cost $s5. while
II purchased in England they cost less
than SIC. II the difference in price
went into the pockets Of the working
men who make the rails there might be
some excuse for keeping up the pro-
tective" tariff, but the difference goes
into the pockets of the owners Of the
rail mills. while the employees are paid
wages which buy them less of the neces-
ssries OF life than the workmen in Eng
lish mills are able to purchase with their
wages.

had cause to say good word for
the Brotherhood OF Locomotive
Engineers, and to commend its course
and conduct to other labor organiEs-

and confidence Of employers, and
rarely has trouble and more rarely dis
putes necessitating a strike or a resort
to violence. One reason for its smooth
sailing, and It is the chief one. Is
