OF course these Vanderbilt heHs live
in hen palace, or are going to do so,
for Contractors William BaSOn, Of Say
vile, and Alexander Barto, of lslip, are
Just now erecting IA mammoth hen house
three hundred and elghty-iive feet long
with an incubating house at one end,
and another similar house. without the
incubator annex, is TO be bHi.t soon.
The hen houses are built OF brick
with single roofs and face the south.
Over meadow Of fifty acres extent
there comes to the nostrilS Of the Van
derbilt hens the pure breath OF the salt
sea. straight from Bermuda when the
south wind blows, and as the front and
top are Of glass, the hens can lie III
their hammocks and watch the clouds
when tired Of active exercise. The
house itself keeps away the north wind.
The new brick barns also help TO keep
the climate equable, as they lie TO the
north. The incubator end is seventy
feet by twenty-five; the rest OF the
chicken house is fifteen feet wide ana
divided into sections. each with It's yard
or runaway to the south. Miles OF wire
netting are used in building these par
tltion fences.
The hens who inhabit these sections
are not, as a rule, high bred. a chicken
fancier wouldn't look at 'em. Mr.. Van
derbilt has tried fancy fowl raising. but
given it up. 1t is too costly an amuSe-
ment, and steam yacht isn't TO be
compared with it for extravaganza.
Now he raises poultry only for the eggs
and spring chickens, which are usually
sent to his New York house when he's
in town. He likes to be able to say II
Matched these chickens and laid these
eggs myself" Still, he has few fancy
fowl left which are kept separate.
Among these are a fine pen of white
LeghornS, another of barred Plymouth
Rocks, which won first premium NJ the
Riverhead fair in 1890, a pen Of Bucks
strain of Houdans, the first prize al
RiverheaG at the same time, another OF
second premium brown Leghorns, and

some of them are saved TO assist the
steam boiler in the capacity Of deputy
and assistant mothers, but that Is very
different matter. They're 80 chickens
and they don't make any false pre-
lenses. A certain matrOniy dignity sits
upon the pullet who, AZ eight weeks
from the shell, still lives.
The adult hens and ROSTERS are ted
meat scraps, bone meal, red pepper,
salt, wheat middlings, oatmeal, corn
meal and shell, all boiled mp in large
boiler. They have breakfast in the
morning before starting out for the
days pursuits, pick up lunch in the
intervals of business cares and dine
heartily at night at the table d'hote.
Water is served with each course. The
chickens are fed on bread ground up
fine, which is found to agree well with
the gallinaceOuS infants.
Old hen raiserS often say that it isn't
possible TO raise hens successfully on
large scale. Mr.. Vanderbilt, with seven
hundred and seventy feet OF henhouse
and thousands of hens and chickens and
barrels of wheat screenings and tons OF
ground shell, is just going to iind out il

Around the girls bed were gathered

was sent 10 Boomingdale. After some
months spent in this retreat he was re-
moved TO his home in Philadelphia, at
the earnest request of his truehearted

Thompson street. They had lived apart
many years, but his early love for this
woman came back as his intellect began
10 weaken and return TO It's youthful
state. However, I have often heard
him express himself regarding her, say

The Waste of Animal Food.

The flesh OF domestic animals fit for
food is almost a waste substance in many
countries, since it cannot be locally con-
sumed nor proftably preserved: In the
River Platte republics alone there are
so, 600, 900 sheep and 25,000,000 cattle
to q population of $500, 900. + or years
sheep we're only valued there for their
wool, and when fayed, carcasses were
left to rot, or when dried in the sun,
piled up in stacks for fuel, while latter.
on, they were boiled down for their
tallow. Sheep get very fat in the
province Of Buenos Ayres.: and those Of
three and four years will give frequently
from eighteen to twenty-five pounds Of
tallow. Countless numbers Of sheep
are boiled down every year in the So
called eraserias only for the tallow,
which forms one of the staple articles
of export. The mutton is thrown
away. or used in a dry state as fuel.
In the five years ending with 1855,
more than 100000 sheep, and 200, Z
600 horned cattle we're bold down sim
NV for their tallow, in the colonies OF
New South Wales and Victoria.

A city without a Hotel.

Chulumani, capital of the province of
Yungas. is o typical town of interior
Bolivia. With a population of only
about 800, it covers nearly as much
space as the city of Chicago. Having
been built haphazard up and down the
hillsides. bird's-eye view makes it's
roofs of ancient and clumsy tiles, which
were long since turned by time from
dull red to messy green and gray, APP
pear to be piled directly on top Of one
another.
AS in all Spanish America, the build
ing material is stone, adobe and plas-
ter, but little wood being used, even
the floors being generally of tiles,
brick, or cement. Except the huts Of
the Indians, all are enormous structures,
sometimes rambling around two or
three inner courts, and though many of
them contain several shops and shelter
a number of families, one finds nowhere
those neat little houses which can be
furnished without much cost and easily
kept in order, so much in demand at
the North.
Here the newly-married pair must
take casa large enough for garrison
or live in rooms above some shop, or re.
main with the old folks, according to
their taste and means. Perhaps that
accounts for the fact that the most Of
the great houses are scantly furnished,
their long and lofty apartments looking
IS bare and cheerless IS 30 many town
balls. without trace of that oozy home

Characteristic Amer1sanisms.

The number of absolutely new words
introduced into the English language
in America is remarkably small. As
an instance may be mentioned acau-
GUS" for a secret political assembly.
This is a corruption OF calk house, q
calker's shed in Boston where the pa
triots before the Revolution had usually
held their meetings. The several di-
visions of the United States have their
characteristic Americanisms. In the
New England States "ugly" ia used for
i'll natured, and guess" for great va
riety of things-to think, presume, sup
pose, etc. This use of guess is confined
to New England.
y The inhabitants of New York and
the Middle States employ expect" in
the same way, while those of the South
ern States s'reckon" and those of the
Western States calculate. Several
words current in the Middle States are
of Dutch origin, as @loafer" for vaga-
bond, from the Dutch loopen, to run !;
and "boss" for head workman or en-
ployer. The verb "to fix" is made to
do duty all over the country for ex-
pressing all kinds of action. The we'll
known phrase ego ahead" is o coinage
Of the West, and "posted up" in q sub.
ject for the we'll informed is one Of a
class Of metaphors indicative of the
prominence Of mercantile pursuits.

Virus of Indian Snakes.

"A communication concerning the
physiological action of the poison Of tho
venomous snakes of India, recently pre-
sented to the Royal Society, is apsper
of exceptional interest. It contains an
account of numerous experiments made
upon small birds, cats. dogs, fowls,
frogs, guinea-pigs, pigeons and rabbits,
with the virus Of the corba and that of
the almost equally deadly viperine
snake known as the daboia. These
experiments were made in England,
with poison sent thither from Bengal in
gum-like condition, which preserves
its potency. The idea that the venom
effective only when conveyed into the
system through the blood is mistake;
it also acts when introduced by means
of the stomach. although it is not then
so certainly fatal. When carried di-
rectly to the heart, as by the jugular
vein, the poison arrests its action and
and causes almost instantaneous death.
Death is moro commonly produced.
however, By the paralyzing effect of the
poison upon the muscular apparatus,
and the consequent check of respiration.
It is q remarkable fact that while this
snake-poison acts injuriously upon so
many forms OF animal life, and to some
extent even upon plant life, it is practi-
cally harmless as against venomous
snakes themselves.
