The failure of the electric light wire to

Fortunes waiting for the Heirs.

According TO Mr.. R. D. Evans Of 1855
Seventh avenue, the heirs OF Israel KetchAm,
Jacob Joseph de Garmo, Brantington and Rob
ert Cram, would hear o. something decidedly
to their advantage if they would only come
forward and make themselves known to him.
Messrs Ketcham, De Garmo, Brantington
and Cram were residents OF New York be-
tween the years 1880 and 1850 and during
that time bought some valuable lands In the
state of Tennessee which have never been
claimed even up TO the present day.
The records of the transfer Of this property
are preserved and the title is perfectly clear
TO any one who can prove that he is the sole
surviving heir Of any OF those four men. In
August, 1885, 1850 acres Of this land was sold
10 Israel KetchAm. He never claimed the
property, having bought IL probably merely
for speculation. Such a man lived here In
New York, and was for. years a -four mer-
chant down near Coenties slip.
In the same year I, 500 acres were sold to
Joseph Brsntngton, who signed himself
gentleman" On May q, 1887, 5000 acres
was sold - Garmo. And In 1899
10000 acres Id was sold to Robert

for nineteen years at New street. This land

How pramatlst 1bssn Lives.

Ibsen, the Norwegian dramatist, does mot
live at Gossensass, on the Bremen, as Boston
would fain have the world believe. He
spends his summers there, but his winter
home is Munich, and a Munich correspondent
says that he takes his breakfast daily at the
Cafe Macmillan, and studies the journals
through the meal So orderly are his habits
that he can neither feed nor read if he finds
any stranger occupying his customary cor
ner. The great dramaturglst's rights as a
'stammgast'' of the house are recognized by
the oberkellner, who generally contrives to
keep Ibsens seat and table vacant until he
appears If he chances to be late, he looks in
at the door to see whether his place is free
When any intruder has taken possession of
it, the poet marches up and down in front Of
the cafe, pausing every now and then to peep
through the window, and gesticulating fierce
ly at the innocent invader.
Anybody who has seen Ibsen or even a
good photograph of the man can imagine the
grim ferocity which he can impart to his
countenance. This piece Of stage play is
nearly always successful. The intruder asks
the waiter who the remarkable old gentleman
is, and why he patrols before the cafe and
keeps looking in. THAT is the poet Ibsen, !"
is the usual reply; she is accustomed to sit
here, and is waiting until the place is vacant

About the time that Daniel Drew began his
Wall street career he was up in the country
one time to visit some friends, and two farm.
ers called upon him to decide a case. One
had sold the other five bushels of wheat, and
proposed to measure it in half bushel and
sweep the top Of the measure with stick.
The other objected, and Uncle Daniel was
asked 10 decide.

Gentlemen, that is point cannot now

A Drama on Georpe washIpgtop.

The late Mr.. Martin Farquhar Upper
once aspired to distinction as a dramatist.
His washington, Drama in Five Acts" of
which a privately printed copy is now before
us, was written in 1875, as a note by the
author records, "for the centenary of Amer
lean independence and was intended for
representation in the United States" Mr..
Upper was bitterly disappointed at his fail
ure to induce any manager of leading
theatre in America to produce his piece. 1t
is in blank verse, and introduces Washington
and his wife, Benedict Arnold and his sister
Mary, Patrick Henry, john Adams, Benja-
min Franklin, the Marquis de Lafayette and
Major Andre.
The general is rather more addicted in the
play to long rhetorical speeches than history
would warrant us in expecting, and the
drama suffers from general excess of dia-
logue over acCion. Stirring business, howev-
er, is provided in the fourth act. Mr.. Upper,
who quietly drops poor Honora Sneyd, sup
poses Andre and Mary Arnold to be betroth-
ed; and he represents his heroine as steal
ing upon the privacy of Washington when
the latter is lying sick in the camp at Valley
Forge and making desperate attempt to
stab him after the later fashion Of Charlotte
Corday. This is in revenge for his obdurate
determination that Andre shall be executed
as spy.
The general, however, having been saved
by the timely interposition Of Mrs. Washing
ton, who appears TO be campaigning with her
husband, the latter generously condones the
treacherous act; for the author, who like Mr.
Puff had fancy for complexity in the SEN
timental relations of his personages, has
imagined Mary to be no other than the "un-
known lowland beauty" the earliest love"
of Washington, who, recognizing her, adj
dresses her calamity as "My unknown pas
sion flower of hot sixteenp On the whole, it
seems pity that American playgoers were
baked of the entertainment which they I'M
doubtedly might have derived from Mr.. Tup-
pers bold method of handling his historical
materials. London Daily News.

GARRlCK AND Dl6DIN.

The Former Knew the Value of Money
and Did Disagreeable Things.
In 176s Dibdin transferred his services to
Drury Lane, where he had the usual dsa-
Creements with Garrick in regard to money
matters. One would hardly be justified in
applying the term subscriptions to Gar
rick; but he undoubtedly knew the value Of
money better than those who served him, and
II was not his fault If he got the worst of a
bargain Dibdin signalized himself at Drury
Lane by his writing of the music for "The

author of the words, got 81, 200.

so Flannel Shirt for Him.

A Lewiston little boy declared a philo-
sophie independence and accepted the con-
sequences in so matter of fact a way last
week that it may make a story, even if it is
not so very funny. His mother dressed him
up in new flannel shirt and sent him to
school. The shirt irritated his cuticle, or, in
other words he itched. When he came home
that night he was cross-and very cross for
SO small boy-and he declared he and the
shirt had parted company forever. The
next morning, as his mother prepared to
dress him for school, the boy drew the line
at the shirt. NO." said he, 81 don't wanter

which the boy appeared to have formed his
opinion and to have decided to stick to it,
The question when put to the house was
carried by the boy, who would not don the
shirt.
''If you will not wear it," said his mother,
shall send you back to bed"
Back to bed he went. He got no dinner.
Afternoon came. A neighbor went in to see
him-his mother telling her that she had
bad boy upstairs. The boy lay there in bed

situation, but showing no signs Of change Of

Dolls Ewes.

According to an English journal two minor
branches of the doll industry form distinct
trades-the making of shoes aud eyes The
shoes are made from the waste material Of
children's ornamental shoes and boots; but
this branch is a smaller one than that of eye
making, as many dolls are sent out with
merely painted boots, while all or nearly all
have proper eyes. Dolls eyes are of two
sorts, known technically as common and nat
ural. The common are simply colored hol-
low glass spheres of white enamel, black and
blue being the only colors used The natural
eyes are of similar composition, but have the
pupil and iris correctly represented. Consd-
cradle quantities are exported, especially to
French dollmakers. The black eyes are used
for dolls exported to South America, and
blue eyes for those used at home, children
naturally preferring their dolls TO have eyes
of a similar hue to those most common among
themselves
