most startling imaginable. 1t is said
that the curious iron machinery and
parchment documents which it holds
are the work of the famous Able
Sugar, of the twelfth century, who
was in the service of two French
kings, and that they show the posi-
bility of applying steam to mechan-
les. The report, if confirmed, will
stamp the period of the revival of
civilization and learning as more inn
portant in the scientific sense
than the world has heretofore
thought. In letters, architecture,

centuries Lave been the great pre-

A few evenings since our report
er's attention was called to the beau
tifully Illuminated buildings of the
Smith Premier Typewriter works on
Clinton street, and upon investiga-
ton found that owing to large in
crease in business they were obliged
to run twelve hours a day, operating
between 800 and 400 employees. Con
sidering the rapid growth of the
business referred to it is very appa-
rent to the proprietor that it will be
absolutely necessary during the sum-
mer months to build another factory,
and in fact the plans are nearly ar
ranged for the construction of new
building of dimensions 60xl40 feet,
seven stories high. This new struc-
ture, in addition to the present build
ings, which have every nook and cor
ner filled with operatives, will admit
of working at least GOO people, and
if the business continues to increase
in the future as it has in the past it is
very certain that the company at no
distant day will require all the type
writers that 600 operatives can pro
duce. We are informed that no other
typewriter manufacturers in the state
at present are pressed to fill their or
ders to the extent that they are
obliged to work overtime.-Syracuse

The Virginia Islands.

Chincoteague, which is the most popu-
lous of the Virginia islands, has from
800 to 400 wild ponies roaming its pas
lures. Wallop's island, hard by, now
the property of some New York and
Brooklyn politicians, who have club
house there, has been a cattle pasture
for generations, perhaps for centuries,
and half a dozen named or nameless
islands between Wallop's and Hog island
have half wild cattle or hogs feeding on
their rank salt grass. These creatures
are untended the year round, and are
penned once year for branding. The
cattle are small, sharp horned creatures,
and the hogs are of the tall razorbacked
variety common in the pine forests of
the mainland. When cattle or swine
are to be brought ashore they are driven,
a score or so together, upon the decks of
rallied scow and towed astern Of q

foreigners-by name at least-was Jay
Could whose death is so recent an event
as to be fresh in the memory of public
that will soon forget him while worship
ing at the shrine Of some other deity of
dollars who shall arise in his stead. Yet
here is the estimate of his career penned
by man thoroughly in touch with the
sentiment of the Continental public:
"Jay Gould died at the comparatively
early age of fifty-siX years. Although the
daily press has published column after col
umn regarding his career and has used all
of its varied resources to learn everything
connected with it, nothing has been CLEANED
that is specially admirable save that he
appears to have been an excellent husband
and father. In the gleanings of his public
career and private life the fact that he gave
$4,000 to the church extension fund and
that he has been taking care of an old
clergyman in Westchester county stand
out most prominent.
"With enormous wealth at his command
Mr.. Gould might have made his memory
fragrant with good deeds. But it appears
that the greatest privilege he could enjoy
over the poor he exercised the least-the
privilege of making them happy.
"Of course it is impossible for man who
accumulated fortune of from S50,000,0 600
to 100000 600 in so short time to be any
thing else but selfish and a lover of money
for it's own sake. Nor was there anything
admirable in the method by which he ac-
quired his fortune. Thesubstantial foun-
dation to it was made by destroying and
wrecking.
"Of course after he had amassed a for
tune preservation instead of spoliation be-
came Necessary, and it is no credit to him

THEY WRITE POETRY
TO THE PUBLIC, HOWEVER, THEIR
LlMPID>PROSE is MOST FAMILIAR.

hrs. Edith Sessions Tupper and Mrs Lee
G. Hardy Represent the Far North and
tho Very Sunny South. but Both Are
Truly American.
Poetry is confined to no cline and to
no race, though some peoples are gifted
far above others, and it is one of the
pleasing facts TO all Americans that their
poets today represent every section Of
the nation. For an illustration let two
ladies be taken-one of Jewish blood and
far southern birth and rearing, the other
Of old Puritan stock, born and reared
near the Canada line. Mrs. Lee G. Hardy
is thoroughly southern and Mrs. Edith
Sessions Tupper quite as thoroughly
northern in origin, feeling and educa-
tion, yet both are now the pride of New
York, and their fame is truly national.
Mrs. Harby's father was Marx E. Co
hen, graduate of the University of
Glasgow, who married Miss Armida
Hardy, OF a family distinguished in the
history and literature of South Carolina.
They became the parents of one son and
five daughters. The son lost his life in

LAKESIDE CLUBHOUSE.

The Holland society, as its name i'm
plies, collects documents and data on
the settlement of New Netherlands,
traces the connection between the old
families and their kinsmen in Holland,
and generally cultivates sentiment Of
reverence for the Dutch ancestors of the
Knickerbockers. 1t is of course strong
among the -Four Hundred, and has done
great and valuable work for local his
tory. The Salmagundi is an old and
famous organization of artists. The
Triple Alliance, oddly enough, has moth
ing to do with Germany, Austria and
Italy, or with American politics. 1t is
simply union of dealers in carpets,
furniture and upholstery. q
The objects Of the Players, Press,

Jersey Cattle and Merchants clubs are

not one of whom is under six feet high.
The Storm King club takes it's name
from its summer home on Storm King
mountain, and finds its amusement in
collecting historical relics of the Hudson
valley and vicinity of New York gen.
orally. And in all the New World there
is no richer field. The mammoth and his
contemporaries first, and then in success
sion the mound builder, Indian, Dutch
man, colonial enterpriser and Revolu-

region with rich remains. AT present
the club is industriously exploring some
ancient mounds and marking the graves
of the last Indisns to die in the valley.
The Sea Serpent club is composed of

dailies, and it's latest social function was
