northeast corner of Fifth avenue and

trip abroad Mr.. Vanderbilt saw soma
of the famous mansions of Paris,
with drivcways and garden,
in the heart of the city.
Hitherto nobody but A. r. Stewart had
attempted to erect q palace in New
York, Mr.. Vanderbilt believes that
his house is situated on the choicest
part of the avenue. and he. therefore,
made it a point to buy the whole block
from Fifty-seventh to Fifty-eighth
street. Then Mr.. Vanderbilt began to
consider the plans for his new structure.
An essential feature of the new plan is

MERIDIAN, Miss, Dec. 21.--A reign
of terror exists in Kemper county, and
every citizen with anything to do with
the hanging of old man Tolbert and
bringing Tom and Walter Tolbert to
justice is now in hourly dread of his
life. One week ago William Rockham,
known TO have been prominent in the
war on the Tolberts, was assassinated
while sitting by his own freside
Sunday last as Colonel Adams,
who was also identified in the
fight against the Tolberts was riding
along a dreary road near his home, two
masked men fired at him from ambush,
but Adams horse seeing the men SHE'D
and saved the riders life. Adams re-
turned the fire with shotgun, but
without effect. The greatest conster-
nation exists and no one goes about
without being heavily armed. The
mistrusted men are supposed to be
Ranse and Charlie Tolbert.
A band of determined citizens came
here this morning and armed themselves
to the teeth for the purpose of wiping
out the assassins.

Certain Soon.

is organic, however. and in the na ture
of things must grow worse.

added in answer to a question that Mr.
Blaine had no trouble in sleeping.
About 1920 o'clock coupe drove up to
the door and Mr.. Damrosch, Mr..
Blaine's son-in-law, alighted. His
presence makes complete the personal
household of Mr.. Blaine.
