Now that the Stewart mansion Is To be-
come a clubhouse, says New ork
paper. it has come out that 1t contained
one sacred apartment. 1t was on the
second floor. and furnished at a cost OF
$50 900. There were carpets and fuTnl-
ture of the most expensive kind, Crys-
tai chandelier, marble statues and fine
paintings. 1t was fitted up for the use Of
General Grant, then in the first year of
his term as President Of the United
States. It will be recalled that General
Grant sent \. T. Stewards name 10 the
Senate for Secretary OF the Treasury. It
was then discovered that the Constitu
ton would not permit an adopted citizen
to take this place. But Mr.. Stewart, ap-
preciating the Presidents desire to honor
him, became from that moment warmer
friend than ever of General Grant. This
room in his palatial mansion was fur
nished expressly for the use of the Presl-
dent. A latchkey TO the mansion and a
key TO the room were sent to him, with
the directions that whenever he wanted
to come to New York and have a resting
spell this room would be at his disposal.
General Grant, in the eight years that he
was President, occupied it many times.

Finding Water With a OWNING cd

The divining-rod as mears of finding
a good supply of water stood a successful
trial recently at Oundle, England. w.
Todd, landowner, requiring a we'll on
a portion of his property, sent for a
''diviner" named Pearson. There had
been considerable difficulty in obtaining
a supply of water in the town, and the
Oundle Commissioners had spent $500 in
trial borings, conducted by professional
man, which proved futile. In the pres
sence of a number of spectators, Pear
son, with the usual V-shaped hazel twig,
walked over the estate. In several places
the twig was visibly agitated, but the
"diviner" kept on until the twig almost
bent itself double in his hands. At this
spot we'll was sunk, with the result that
at seventeen feet water was found in such
abundance that it rapidly rose to within
three feet of the surface, at which height
it has since remained. During the max
ing of the we'll the water percOlated into
it SO rapidly that at frequent intervals
operations had to be suspended to pump
out the water.
