by the day. 1t is not rare, either, to
see an express wagon standing near
the house.
One of the most picturesque of the
squattcs' homes is on the corner OF
Seventeen st2ect and Columbus avenue
The rock on which It is built raises it Q
few feet above the level of the street
The entrance is shaded by beautiful
arbor and climbing vines, and the
whole place is sheltered by four large
trees.
On Sixty-eighth street, between
Columbus and West End avenues, the
virgin rock stands as it has stood since
Manhattan Island grew. Through i
the streets has been. cut, leaving the
south side n cliff twenty feet high. Or
this eminence and so near the edge n!
70 seem ready to topple over into the
street below, are eight shanties. They
were put up there long before the
street was cut through or the grea'
apartment houses opposite were erected
Dirty, rickety and bepatched they
stand, relics of the days when squattel
sovereignty ruled this region and the
squatter's home was his castle.
Access to them is gained by an ascen;
of double wooden staircases, each OF
which seems ready to tumble to the
ground any who are venturesomc
enough to trust them. The stairs art
made mostly of pieces of soap boxes
and other lumber, with bit of large
timber rescued from the river near by
or gathered from some dilapidated
building.
And these are the last of the squat
tcrs. Squatter sovereignty, for which
New York city was once famous, is al
most n thing of the past, and soon it,
last vestiges will pass away. The
squatters must leave their rickcty
palaces and go to live in the narrow
quarters of the tenement houses. and
worst of all, they must ere long pay
rent.

Years ago, when Thirteenth street was

boards, scraps of tin and anything else

occupied land for which nobody then
thought of demanding rent, and raised
crops Of potatoes, chickens, goats and
