rhe Grant works WIN Resume.

Negotiations nave been concluded by
which work will soon be started up again
at the Grant locomotive works in Pater-
son, an establishment which it was sup
posed had been closed for good. The
Leslie snow plough manufacturing com
pany has made arrangements by which 1t
win obtain possession of the works for
the purpose of building the famous snow
ploughs, work hitherto done at The Cooke
shops. There is a great demand for these
ploughs, and the company for somestime
has been contemplating the erection OF
works of it's own in Paterson. A large
number Of ploughs have been ordered,
andlthere is said to be plenty of business
ahead for a long time to come. 1t is
understood that the lease obtained on the
Grant Works includes the privilege OF
purchase at a certain figure, and 1T IS
more than likely that the establishment
viii change hands, the present owners
apparently having grown tired OF build
ing locomotives. Building snow ploughs
viii afford fully as much work. and of q
similar character to the making of loco
motives, so that most of the old hands
will in all probability be again employed.
This is certainly a good piece Of news for
Paterson, which needs a diversity of in
dustries.

said the man was in a precarious con-
dition and probably would not live many
hours. Poor Master Abbott concluded
that the Almshouse was the place for the
man, and putting nothing on hin put a
w~aistcoat, started to convey him to the
county house, a distance of twelve miles.
Z When he reached the outskirts of the
town several ladies who had heard of the
case brought out some clothing, and per-
suaded the Poormaster to put them on
the unfortunate in his wagon.

Mrs. Sarah A. Latimer, of Plainfield, who
died last spring, leaving a large estate.
will not be contested by n of those who
filed caveats. About 5000, 900 in securities
has been held in Boston since Mrs. Lati-

however, they refused to comply to the
demands of ex-Judge Nelson Runyon,
who was appointed administrator of the
estate, stating at the same time that only
an order from the probate judge could
cause the property to be transferred. His
order was given some time ago, but an
appeal was taken before Judge Devan, of

The wealthy Japanese make no display
either in the architecture of their houses
or in the display of ornaments. In the
way of furnishing, their pride is in the
delicacy of their mats and the richness
of the satin cushions. The chief room
in the house of n rich Japanese is
thus described: 1.-THE salon was about
20 feet long by 10 wide. AT one end,
in the corner, was n small raised plat
form in a little niche and on it a fine
Imari vase three feet high, holding
Towering branches of the cherry tree.
