These estimates are made low purposcly. They
ore likely to be much exceeded. Allowance is
made for only 1000 visitors each day, while the
number will surely reach 5000 and probably
5000 as a steady average. 1t may not be CON-
monty known that of the preposterous charge of
60 cents car fare from the Grand Central Station
10 Jerome Park and return the racetrack people
have been in the habit of claiming and receiving
one-third, or 90 cents. That accounts for the
item OF $500 as receipts from the Harlem Rail
road for the carrying privilege. OF course it is
an outrage, but let that pass. The point arrived
at is that with all his expenses Mr.. Withers could
figure out q profit Of at least 81 $50 a day on a
meeting of twenty days at the old track. That
is not to he sneezed at by an association that has
been bounded out of its native State, expelled from
the stronghold that il has occupied for a consid-
cradle number of years-that has, in effect, been
evieted almost at the point of the %bayonet.
BY this eviction Long Branch and all the little
villages that subsist on. it suffer irreparably. The
racing season in Monmouth County was its life
and its excuse for existing. Cay Hollywood is
doomed 10 dulncss that will know no enlivening.
It's mult.farious attractions will 20 for naught
without the inspiring presence Of the jolly. happy,
light-hearted follower of the turf. West End is
dead. Elberon is dead. Oceanport and Eaton
town are doomed. Pleasure Bay might as well be
wiped from the face Of the earth. The farmers in
the surrounding country are cast into gloom. Their
summer occupation is gone. The time between
seed time and harvest will hang heavy on their
hands. The constabulary. who clustered about
the Sage of Brookdale for two months each

Discussion on this was most protracted..
some of the members being in favor OF
adopting certain restrictions In the number
of acres to be granted. After lengthy
discussion the following was adopted as a
result of the deliberations of the conven-
ton:
Resolved, that this congress is in favor OF
granting in trust upon such conditions as
shall subserve public interests in the states
and territories needful of irrigation
the public domain within such
states and territories, excepting mineral
lands, for the purpose of developing irriga-
ton. TO render the lands now arid fertile
and capable of supporting population.
Upon the request of the Kansas delega-
ton the following was also adopted:
Resolved, that it is Justly due the settlers
of Montana, the Dakotas, Wyoming. Ne
braska, Kansas and Oklahoma, who have
paid into the United States treasury millions
of dollars in the purchase of these lands
and have expended other millions IN fruit
less attempts 10 farm them without lrrlga-
ton, that portion of the funds so paid be
expended in Securing to such lands the
benefit of Il. ;;gation.

Tanning Hurumine Birds,

Humming birds are generally supposed
to be extremely tinid and almost untam
able, but when their confidence is won
which is an easy matter to those who I'M
derstand them, they are very fearless, and
the loveliest little pets in the world. We
tame them nearly every season, and they
come to US anywhere aroundt he place, and
when the doors are open make themselves
perfectly at home, even in the house. A
year or two ago called my wife's attention
to the first one of the spring, as we were
sitting on the piazza, and when l called
him he came at once and examined each OF
us carefully, and then flew Off.
q saw at once that it was one of our pets
of the previous year, SO went in and pre-
pared small bottle of sugar and water,
and it was but a few minutes before he re-
turned and at once took his dinner, as be
had been accustomed to. Unfortunately
he had mate who was bossiEg him aud
who dragged him northward after he had
paid US but two or three visits.-Forest and

East-Bound Rate Cutting.

CHICAGO, Ill, Sept. 11-Complaint has
been made to Chairman Blanchard of the
Central traffic association by no less than
five different companies that the east-bound
rates ION provisions and oats are being
manipulated by certain of their competit-
crs. The roads complained of are the Erie
and the Nickel Plate. The CON-
planning companies are the Michigan Cen
trail, Lake Shore, Chicago and Grand Trunk,
Baltimore and Ohio and the Pennsylvania
Every effort of these roads claims 10 have
lost business through the manipulation of
rates, the charge being that very mate
rial diversion of traffic has been caused by
a cent cut on provisions and , cents on
oats. In his reply to some of the complain
ing lines, Chairman Blanchard says that
while he has not been furnished with any
proof of the alleged cut practiced, he is
convinced from information received
from other sources that the charges are not
without foundation. He has cls sulted
with Chairman Goddard of the TruIk Line
association about the matter, and suggests
that meeting of lines interested be called
for the purpose of taking action looking to
their own protection. It happens. however,
that the majority of the interested lines
are averse TO such proceeding at this
time for fear the agitation of the matter
may lead to cutting by other roads. The
