VAST ESTATES.
The Duke of Cleveland and the Acres II
Was Lord Over.

The Duke of Cleveland and the Acres He
Was Lord Over.
The late Duke OF Cleveland possessed
immense estates and vast wealth, and
the whole of his property was at his
own disposal. He always lived in great
state, and particularly at Raby, where
he was quite a grand seigneur. His
Durham estate, which extends over
55,ss7 acres included large portion of
the borough ot Darlington, but the land
was sold by him for building purposes
about twenty years ago, as north coun-
try people usually refuse positively to
build on leasehold tenure The Duke
owned the great 1.-THE of Darlington.
Raby is a magnificent place, the cas-
tie dating from the fourteenth century,
and it stands in a finely wooded deer
park of a thousand acres. Lord Bea-
consfeld described it as the only place
in England, except Ainwick, which
came fully up to his ideas of the coun-
try seat of "a great noble" The Duke
always passed the autumn at Raby. He
was an excellent landlord, and there
never were any vacant farms on the
Raby estate, the tenants, as rule,
having lived on the property for gen.
erations No estate has been more i'm
proved, and, in addition to rebuilding
farm-houses and steadings and erecting
cottages, miles of land in Upper Tees
dale, which were formerly barren moor,
have been drained, and so well man"
aged that the land is now productive.
Besides an estate of 25,604 acres in
Shropshire the Duke owned another of
3,S42 acres in Northants and another of
1897 acres in Cornwall, while he also
had 1.0S5 acres in Devonshire and 4,7S4
acres in SOmersetshire, the last domain
including considerable portion of the
famous Vale of Wrington, and also the
valuable Bathwiclh property in the city
of Bath, from which he drew large
rental. These were his family estates;
but, before succeeding to the dukedom,
he bought the Battle Abbey property
of 6,025 acres from Sir Godfrey Vassall,
and the beautiful old abbey became
and always continued to be his favorite
residence. London Truth.

The Young Pcddler Who Married Coun

The Young Pcddler who Married Coun-
try Maiden.
A few facts in relation to the early
life of one of the greatest and wealth.
lest railroad magnates of the present
age will be both interesting and in
structive to young men who are about
to start out in life to make a fortune
and an honored name for themselves.
When Coils p Huntington arrived at
manhood he had saved enough money
to buy horse and peddler's wagon,
and bought small stock of dress
goods and fancy notions, and used to
travel through Connecticut. He would
generally put up at night with some
farmer and pay his bill in trade,
One night he put up with farmer in
Cornwall by the name of Stoddard, one
of Cornwalls most respected citizens.
His eldest daughter was beautiful
young lady, universally beloved by all
of Cornwall's people. BY nature she
was very domestic in her habits and Il
good housekeeper and an excellent
cook. In fact, she had every accom-
plishment necessary to make man
happy. She also possessed a clear
business intellect. 1t did not take
young Huntington long to discover
these qualities in Miss Stoddard and
he captured the prize that many a
young man sought to win.
The story goes in Cornwall that Miss
Stoddard's excellent biscuit made him
fall in love with her They were mar
ried very quietly, for, as they said, they
had no money to spend foolishly.
1t was not long after their marriage
before he had fine span of horses and
handsome peddler's wagon. BY his
marriage the foundation of his i'm
mense fortune was laid.
They moved to California where Mr..
Huntington went into partnership with
Mr.. Hopkins, A short time before Mrs.
Huntington died she gave one thousand
dollars toward the erection of chapel
in West Cornwall, and had she lived
would have honored her birthplace,
where she and Mr.. Huntington spent
so many happy hours together, with
something more substantial. She also
intended to erect a handsome monu-
ment to the memory of her deceased
parents. Her constitution was not ro,
bust and her early trials and sacrifices
to advance the interests of her beloved
husband brought her to an early grave.

Bolton in the Senate Saturday gave
notice of q resolution which he pro.
posed moving, that the British gov
eminent be asked to contribute assis-
lance toward the construction of the
Hudson Bay railway. He pointed out
that Great Britain would derive great
benefit from being able to secure her
food supplies from the Canadian
northwest through the short route the
Hudson Bay and straits would offer,
while, in the event OF war, it would
be of great advantage to England to
secure their food supplies from the
nearest possible market. He pointed
out that the precedent was found in
the assistance the British government
had given toward the construction of
the Suez Canal, in which case thew
had invested 100000 in Suez Canal
