Joseph Battin, an aged millionaire of
Elizabeth, n. j.. left his daughters house
about two years ago, and went TO live with
the society OF faith-curers in Fifty-fourth

organization. which is knO wn as the Chris

his property.
His six children have now begun legal
proceedings against the officers of the alIi-
ance to recover this property, alleging that
the old man is feeble-minded and not re-
sponsible for his actions, and that his large
gifts have been made under undue influ-
ence. His wealth is estimated at over
81, ,000000
During the past two months he has decided

tion of 81, besides presenting the parson
with $4,000 in cash. His previous gifts
were also large.
He has been rather eccentric all his life
and has had several hobbies on which he

Until lew years age lie was regarded as

PUSHING THE NORWOOD.
Norman L. Munro Challenges Uncle
Sans Torpedo Boats.

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Last Wednesday
Norman L. Munro's much -talked-of steam
launch Norwood made a run of fourteen
miles down the bay in thirty-two minutes
This is at the rate of 26.2S statute miles, or
22-s2 knots per hour. While the Norwood is
undoubtedly the fastest steam launch in the
world, the Tribune made statement that
she is not as fast as some of the torpedo
boats. Munro took exception to this state
ment and in dispatch from Long Branch
said: Kindly name the fastest American
torpedo boat. l am quite sure Uncle Sam
will consent TO a contest of speed between
the Norwood and the fastest. | am of
opinion that no steamboat in this or any
other country can 0utspeed the Norwood
over ten or twenty-mle course through
smooth water" In re ly, the Tribune states
that the navy possesses only two torpedo
boats, the Stiletto and Cushing and adds:
The Stlletto has speed of only 18 % knots.
AT speed trial of three hours duration, on
March q, 1890, with her full outfit and
equipment, and at her deepest displacement
OF as feet the Gushing made mean speed
OF %. % knots. 1t is matter of record that
her maximum speed is above twenty-four
knots Although of greater length and deeper
daft, the Gushing made a mean speed
OF only 80 Of knot less on a three hours
run than the Norwood made On a thirty
two minutes run. But it is not at all likely
that Uncle Sam will consent to a test of
speed between the Cushing and the Nor
wood, as the navy vessels are not built for
racing.
Attention was also called to the fact that
in the Spanish, Russian, Turkish and En-
glish navies there are torpedo boats with an
average speed OF 1915 to 27.4 knots an hour

He Only Wanted to See 1t.

A very swell-looking, middle-aged man,
apparently every inch of what is termed a
man Of the world, entered Broadway car
coming downtown at Thirty-third street
When the conductor came in for his fare,
the swell-looking, middle-aged man ad-
dressed him very politely, saying:
Kindly let me know when we reach the
Fifth-avenue Hotel.'
The car rolled along. The street-crossing
leading to the entrance OF the Fifth-avenue
Hotel was reached, and the car was brought
to halt by the conductor. The swell-louk-
ing, middle-aged man was sitting sideways,
gazing out upon the beauties of Madison
square.

shouted in the door.
The swelI-looking, middle-aged man
bolted around in his seat and begin to stare
at the big hotel
Fifth h-avenue HOTEL" shouted the con-
ductor again, coming into the car. Then,
as the swell-looking, middle-aged man did
not move, he added somewhat testify:
"Here is the Fifth-avenue Hotel, sir; are
you going to get out?"
"Why, no." responded the swell-l6oking,
midde-aged man. surprisedly. Il only
wanted to see the hotel. Heard SO much
about it, you know"
The passengers laughed in spite of them
selves, and the conductor went back to his
station and jerked the bell-strap viciously.-

clined for fish dinner. She posts herself
on the edge of the steep bank, and when
one OF the ungainly creatures comes
webbing along in the shallow water
below her kitty makes a quick dart

was self-acquired by picking up crumbs of
the weed as her owner whitfield up bit Of
plug for his pipe. Noticing this one day, he
offered her bit. To his surprise she ac-
cepted the quid with all the quickness of an
old chewer. 1t has since become reg
ular habit for her TO hunt up Mr..
Jones every morning and beg with all
her arts for chew. She eats the to-
bacco if it is a small enough piece togo in her
mouth. but If plug is given to her she will
lie down by it and lick it, apparently enjoy

years now. The queerest points of the
whole ale that she will use but one brand,
and turns up her furry nose at other kinds;
while another is that she refuses a chew
altogether while nursing her kittens. AT
recent visit the visitor found her curlpd up
In an old chair in the boiler-room with a
bright little kitten beside her. A piece of
