Astor mansions have always been built on

away out of town. The Astor estate now
holds several blocks of lots on Riverside
drive, the superb avenue which runs
along the bluff on the edge of
the Hudson river from Seventy-second

ably be some day the finest places for

THE HAPPY HIPPoPOTAMI.
Family Reunion in Central Park, New
York-The Baby Teething.


There is no more pleasing spectacle of
domestic happiness on Manhattan island
than that in the northeast corner of the
building where the hippopotami, father,
mother and infant, are housed for the
winter. The child, which was born on
October Il, has shown stronger and
stronger indications of love of life as time
has passed. Superintendent Conkling has
taken good care that no draughts touch it.
Draughts are the great enemy of young
hippopotami, which are dangerously SUBJ
iect TO consumption. As the air of the
cage has been kept at a uniform temporal
ture, and as the cage itself has been care
fully covered to prevent the entrance of
draughts, the infant has not known day s
sickness since its birth.
Shortly after the appearance of the
young one Calipb was removed from his
tank in the yard to an apartment adjoining
that of his wife and child, but separated
from IL by iron bars. As soon as Caliph
entered this apartment there was a
great commotion. He made a rush for
the bars and looked in at his WIFE from
whom he had beeu separated so long.
He saw the newcomer, and looked at it
with astonishment that was very much
open-mouthed. There was no Joy in his

ENGLISH ROYAL WEALTH.
How the Queen and Her Family Keer
the Wolf From the Door.


The English royal family is not an enor-
nous landowner. The queen owns $4,000
acres in Aberdeen, and enjoys the rent roll
from the grand estates of Windsor-10, 600
acres in exten: and netting annually Sll0,-
coo. Her Aberdeen property brings but
one-quarter of this sum. She owns Clare
mont, which she purchased of Lord Give
in 1882 for $360. 600. 1t had cost him $780,
CO. This estate covers AGA acres.
Then she has estates IN Germany, but
all these are small as compared with
the holdings of the dukes of West
minister, of Devonshire, of Port
land and of Bedford. The Eng
lish nation pays into the sovereign's
civil list continually about S3,095. 900 an
nually, and during the life of the Prince
Consort he received every year $685.
The whole sum given him by the nation
during his life was IS, 10000.
Some forty years ago the queen re-
ceiyed gift Of FL 80 0oU from generously
disposed subject for her personal use; and
this, with her numerous economies from
what she receives yearly, constitutes her
private fortune. She is reputed TO be worth
$45, O00,0 COO
The Prince of Wales, if diyested of his

acres in Aberdeenshire and Norfolk, and

RESULT OF A SCHOOL WHIPPING.
The Dull Country Boy Becomes Prcsi-
dent Of a Railroad.
Atchinson Gloh


Twenty years or more ago, Mrs. John NJ
Crowell, then Miss Grant, was the teacher
of country school near Yellow Springs.
o. Among her pupils was an orphan boy,
whom the principal farmer of the district
had found in Illinois and taken to raise
The boy was capable and bright, but he
lacked application, and on that account
was never prepared in his lessons Miss
Grant complained of the boys shortcom-
ing TO his adopted father, and was advis-
ed to wear hickory CAD out on him. She
hesitated, for the boy was big and strong,
although good-natured. But the father in
sisted, and, after warning the boy several
times, she one day used the hickory upon
him in the presence of the entire school
1t humbled the lad, and it was feared that
he would run away that night. He was
accordingly watched. But instead of run
ming away he took candle and went TO
his room, where the light was seen to burn
the greater part of the night. The next
day he was in his place in school as usual,
and throughout the day he was perfect in
his lessons. The reformation was COM
plete, and the orphan became famous in
the district.
Miss Grant came West and married Mr.
CroWeiI. \ few years ago, while Mr.. Crow
ell was still in the service of the postoffice
department, he was riding over the Fort
Scott d Wichita road. The conductor was
new TO the business and was averse TO
recognizing Mr.. Croweli's credentials. But
the president of the road happened to be
III his car, attached TO the rear of the
train, and the credentials were re-
ferred to him. Pretty soon the pres
ident appeared in person, and led Mr..
Crowell back into his car "Your wife,
sir, made me president of this road" he
said. ''If il had not been for a whipping

der on the farm" IL was Francis Tier
nan, grown TO be rich and famous, all from

TOMBSTONE, A. r., Dec. 13.-Information
was received here today that two white
men, Jack Bridges and BuFk Robinson,
were killed by Apaches in the Guadalupe
mountains yesterday. Bridges discovered
some freshly killed meat and went to Halls
ranch 10 notify the men there, Then, in
company with Robinson and another man,
they went TO the place where the meat was
found, to investigate the matter.
They had just arrived at the spot when
they were fired upon by Indians. They re-
turned the fire, and attempted to escape,
but were surrounded and two Of them fell.
The other man escaped, after being grazed
by a bullet which made a slight scalp
wound, and reported the result
A courier was then sent to this city for
help. Sheriff Slaughter Immediately tele-
graphed to Fort Huachuca for government
assistance, and made immediate prepare

IN the Guadalupe mountains, east of the
San Bernardino ranch, near the Mexican
line. Five Indians were seen, but it was
impossible to know how many were pres

and soldiers from Fort Bowie were recalled
from that vicinity, as it was said that there
were no Apache outlaws there.
