The last material glory of the Stewart
mansion departed forever yesterday, says
n New York despatch Of the 9th inst when
the massive rosewood furniture of its sleep
ing apartments was carted to Fifth ave
nue. auction room A year ago the Stew
art cellars gave up their stores of wine.
Then the mansion itself was leased to the
Manhattan club The great feature of this
collection is a bed which the merchant had
made expressly for the use Of President
Grant. 1t took a dozen skilled workmen
nearly six months to make this bed for the
single nights repose of President. Stew
arts fame was at its zenith then. He was
the greatest merchant in the world. He
had sent ship loads of corn to famished Ire
land, he had lavished thousands in charity
at home, he had helped save the Union, and
he was in the confidence of the President
and his cabinet The President was to
visit New York, and Stewart was to enter
tain him at his mansion. The date was
several months distant, and the merchant
gave orders to a celebrated firm Of furni
ture designers for the most massive and
costly bed chamber suit ever made for an
American resident. In good time it was
fiji ished. The wonderful bed was placed in
the state sleeping apartment of the man
sion and one night for six and half hours
the form Of President Grant was stretched

Senator Plumb of Kansas is 53 years old

helping the illusion. He is tall, broad
shouldered, and deep chested, and when he
warns up in debate he likes to walk the
central aisle, as Conkling used to- and in
his rugged Western way pour hot shot into
his opponents. To keep up with the times
he takes a large number of newspapers
many of which he reads himself, while in
one way or another he manages to find out
what they all contain. With the Kansas
grangers he is intensely popular, although
his party associates in the United States
Senate do not enjoy his frank independence
in opposing some of their propositions.

"Abnudoned" Farms in Michigan

tFrom the Burlington Free Press.
1t becomes more evident every day that
y ermont and the other New England states
are not alone in being the possessors of
abandoned" farms PENNSYLVANIA is al
ready investigating the state off affairs
IN that section, and now 1t appears that the
West or what was the West but few
years ago, Is also waking up TO the fact that
farming interests are not booming in all
parts Of the West Mr. f. W Miller of
Big Rapids Mich writes the New York
Nation as follows
While attention Is directed to the abandoned
farms of New England il will be- well TO put IN a
bit of concurrent testimony from as far West AS
Michigan. Our last state census was taken m
1854, and shows that in the four years after 1850
-four other counties single railroad centre 90
each county gained Ia population more than the
Cuuuty-in other words these four counties would
nave lost population b for one growing city hi
each. The special cause of this was the attract.
iventss of Dakota. which was lust then filling M
rapidly with humesteaders so future census Is
likely To- tell a similar story There are no more
pakotas left for homestead entry
Mr. Millers conclusion that no futur,
census is likely 10 tell the same story. ap
plies with equal force 90 New England
There will soon be- 40 more Western land
left for homestead entry then the tide will
set back this way if it has not already
