The Sunday tatler and Jersey City express. (Jersey City, N.J.) 1883-1886, 1886-05-30


In 1885, when Railway was pastoral
village, surrounded by thriving farms, and
the rumble of the stage coach had not given
way to the shrill whistle and resounding roar
of the iron horse, one Lewis P Brown, who
has long since gone the way of all flesh,
owned q tract of land designated on the
maps as the Isaac P. Moore estate. The
tract comprised about sixty acres of tillable
land, and had been farm from before the
Revolutionary war till the day it fell into
the hands of Brown, who, it is evident, was
far-seeing individual. Brown decided
that Railway would some day become
city, and learned that railroad was to pass
through it, and visit the property which he
had purchased. Acting upon this knowl-
edge and expectation, he laid the old farm
out into building lots and streets, and on
map which he filed in the Office of the Clerk
of .Middlesex County, named the street
through which the railroad was to pass
New jersey Railroad avenue, and donated
it to the future city. This avenue, now
Broad street, was 100 feet wide; and the
railroad was to have 163 feet on either side
the central line. In 1887 he sold this 49,
feet wide strip to the company, blandly
ignoring the fact that he had already given
it to the embryo city, and the construction
of the road began. All went well with the
company and the city until 1876, when the
former decided to enlarge its capacity by
the addition of two extra tracks, thereby
increasing the width Of the land it con-
trolled to 81 feet, and leaving to the people
of Railway and the property holders along
the line but 163 feet on either side. The
Common Council was made merry and
oomplaisant over champagne supper pro-
yided by the generous company, and
passed a resolution granting the railroad
people and asking no compensation for the
privilege to take the land necessary for the
bed of the new tracks. The property
holders along the line who held that they
had some voice in the matter, and that
their holdings extended to the middle of
the road, were not quite so liberal, and
began to bring suits to recover the value of
the land taken by the company The suits
dragged their slow lengths along with vary
ing success until 1883, when the interested
parties decided to make test case, and
Mr.. Ayres, through his counsel, Benjamin
Vail, Esq, asked the Circuit Coart of
Union County to grant a rule to show cause
why the Pennsylvania should not be COM
PEELED to compensate him for the part of
his alleged property which they had taken.
The application was refused by Judge Van
Syckle on the ground that Brown, when he
much of it as they desired to the Railroad
Company. Mr.. Vail Immediately appealed
to the Supreme Court, which, IN its decis-
ion, sustains the position of the property
holders. Rdh,cay Advocate.

Making 1t Pleasant For the Horse.
carson (Mo.) Appeal.


Mr. TOrreyson, the blacksmith of this city,
is noted for his kindness toward animals.
He has Just built a road-cart, now on exhi-
bition at his blacksmith shop, which is
destined to revolutionize travelling b. road
and to materially tighten the labor of that
noble animal, the horse. The idea Is to oc-
caSionally give the horse a chance to ride In
the cart as the driver. The idea was first
suggested to Mr.. Torreyson by seeing a
turtle move along the road carrying his
shell with him. The vehicle made by MI.
Torreyson has four high wheels and the
place between them is arched, so that the
horse is hitched under the wagon between
the wheels, his head rejecting a little be-
yond the front wheels and his tail just barely
clearing the hind wheels. The driver sits
Just over the horses neck and the others in
the wagon face outward on each side. The
horse is so fastened that the pulling is dis
tributed over his body and does not all come
on his neck and shoulders In this position
he is greatly protected from the sun and
storm and thereby enabled to make long
journeys with less fatigue.
But the principal part of the invention lies
IN a bsIlyband about four feet wide passing
under the horse When you reach the top
of a long hill, down which the horse would
have TO 90 slowly as he held back the load,
YOU simply turn q crank and it lifts the horse
off his feet several inches from the ground
and the vehicle then runs down the hill OF lis
own momentum. 1t is provided with steer
ing apparatus and brake, that the vehlcle
may be steered and its velocity regulated.
Several times during the cay the tlred
horse has chance to ride and Is very much
rested Also when TIE horse attempts TO run
away you wind up the crank and he is lifted
off the ground perfectly helpless

Initiating the Prince of WaIes-A Cheap
Way of Becoming Noticeable.
New York letter.
When a man is taken by barber into the
back room of the shop, or behind a curtain
instead of being reclined in a public chair,
the superstition is that dye is to be used on
him. ThD owner of blackened hair fondly
imagines that the color is a deception, to
maintain which he has only % ord against
spectators time OF application. Ihere-
fore when l CHANGED to get a glimpse OF
what was going on in an obscured corner of
nv BARRIERS establishment, l was astonished
to see that it was not the common process
of hiding gray hair. Nothing was being
done TO the natural brown of the subjects
beard or Uranium, but on the top of his head
the deft scissors of the artisan were causing
baroness. Artificial badness was being
caused.
The momentary sight was enough to make
me wonder When the man emerged there
was mere lock left on his poll, and this
remnant was carefully parted in a way to
make the utmost of it. as though the hirsUte
scarcity was a matter Of regret. The barber
regarded the secret as professional one, not
to be divulged, and l owe it to chance that
am able to give the true explanation. The
badness was artifcially created in order to
complete a likeness to the prince of Wales. 1
forbear to name the proud double of Vic
toria's heir, but he belongs to locally we'll
known family, and is familiar lounger in
places of fashionable resort. Nature has
given to him the big nose, slightly bullying
eyes, pouting lips and general outlines Of
Wales, and he perfects the semblance by
trimming a full beard and thinning the hair.
In his dress too he initiates the original
His daylight suit is gray or brown, with the
frock coat tightly buttoned, the hands
gloved to match, and the hat high silk or
felt one. He spent a season in London, and
it is said that on one occasion he was mis-
taken for the prince. That event decided
his career. All his hours are hours of leisure
and his purse is long. Isuppose he will go
on posing as a counterpart of royalty to the
end of his life. Wales speaks in a queer
mixture of English and German accent and
has a habit of nervously squirting with one
eve. His American likeness has acquired
those characteristics.

Gs MY LOVE. 49,
-
Il. S. Place.l
There Is a rougish, bIue-eyed maid ~vf
Who stole my heart awayi
Her artful little plans she laid,
To win me, day by day.
We often met, this maid and I,
She with sweet looks demure;
The light Of love hid in her eve,
My heart she held secure.
With such modest, winsome grace
In mine she'd place her hand;
With trustful looks upon her face
Beside me she would stand
This winsome maid, this blue-eved maid,
Crept far into my heart;
Within its inmost portals strayed-
We could not live apart.
And yet my name she never spoke,
Nor said TO me one word,
Although her voice sweet echoes woke
The sweetest ever heard.
You wonder how this maid could set
My heart in such whirl!
She was-why, haven't you guessed it yet?
My own, dear baby girl!
