The disgrace which has been brought upon
the celebrated family OF Field 10y the I'M
principled conduct OF Edward NJ. Field, q son
of Cyrus W. Field. the originator Of the At
lantic cable and fnancier of national reputa-
ton, will be a cause of general regret
few days ago a family conference was
held at the residence of Mr. Cyrus W. Field
at which were present beside himself. his
brothers David Dudley Field. the greatest
codifier of laws now living. Henry VI. Field
the famous preacher and equally famous
author; and Stephen j. Field. the Justice of
the Supreme Court of the United States.
These celebrated men met to consult as to
what should be done to save the family name
from tho stain OF dishonor.
There has probably never been gathered to-
gether in America four members # one fam
lily who enjoyed such a degree Of distinction
as these four brothers. each one of great emf
hence in his special walk but all united by the
strongest fraternal feeling The uncles looked
upon the disgrace which had oyertaken their
nephew Edward NJ. Field. as being as common
to them oil as if he had been the son Of all.
Cyrus w Field has in recent years been af
ficted with a number of misfortunes after
life of remarkable prosperity. His exclusion
from the Elevated Railway corporation by the
skillful manipulation Of Gould was at the
sacrifice Of the most important proportion of
his fortune. the reduction amounting TO many
millions. Since this event he has been LIVING
in comparative retirement, but in this interval
several Of his children have shown siens of
mental arrangement and one daughter has
been shut up in an insane asylum Mr.. Field
has also within the last few years lost his
wife, who had been associated with him dur
ing the greater part Of his life
II was not until the detalcation of Edward
NJ. Field was disclosed that the family name
of the Fields has been marked by any per
sonai stain. There have been several mem
bers of the family of the generation to which
Edward NJ Field belonged who have won rs
much distinction as their famous uncles but
these have been the descendants of the sisters
of the celebrated quartette and bear different
names. Justice Stanley Mathews. now dead.
was a nephew and man of very extraordinary
abilities. Justice Brewer is nephew with
claim to respect equal 10 that of Mathews on
the score of talents. and claim very much
superior on the score of character
Cyrus w. Field is now lying very i'll at his
residence in New York city owing to the
shock which he has suffered from his sons
disgrace, and is not expected TO live.

IL a matter of some little pride to Mr. Blaine.
Now the fact that the Secretary Of State -
able TO walk n mile on n stretch is only I'M
portant in the light Of his extVeme indispoai-
ton few months ago. II ia no great achieve
| ment in itself. although it is no doubt
pleasant spectacle TO see Mr. Blaine striding
along like another man in the seyen-ieague
boots. bnt this development of the muscular
force Of his arms is decidedly important.
What does it mean? is Mr.. Blaine prepar-
ing for a hand-to-hand combat for the presi-

At the present time. when the Northern
colleges are given mp TO tho cultivation ot1ho
physical rather than the intellectual powers.
and when the greatest hero is the longest or
highest Jumper. or the expert who IS
most skillful in the game Of football, it is in
teresting to find that there was recently at
least one prominent Northern individual who
was ready TO show disapproyal Of the athletic
craze in the most empathic and unmistake-
able manner.
About q fortnight ago there died in
Brooklyn Mr. Gordon Lester-Ford. leaving a
fortune OF million and half which he
directed under the terms of his viii should
be divided between his widow and lis two
sons. Worthington and Paul Ford-no re-
ference is made in the will TO a third son.
Malcolm by name. The senior Mr.. Ford was
a man of very decided literary tastes. his pr-
vate library being valued at half a million.
and forming one of tho largest pri-
vate collections in the United States.
The sons who were remembered in
his last testament are both men Of
literary distinction, Worthinston Ford having
eu4ttu " 'Ciy CVHPlcIo 'NiN'vH VI N"'I'HS~
tons writings and Paul Ford an edition Of
jefferson and Hamilton.
Malcolm Ford on the other hand, bns de-
voted himself exclusively TO athletic sports.
and has Won the reputation Of being one Of
the finest all-around athletes in America. The
father. however. was deeply dspleased by this
success, considering it unworthy Of respect.
and as his son refused to discontinue his ath-
letic exercises, no deliberately disinherted
him in his Will.
This was his extreme way Of showing to the
world that ne disapproved Of the excessive at
tention now paid to athletic sports. and that
he regarded the ardent pursuit of such
sports as calculated TO in6iet injury rather
than confer good upon society.
