Proposed Dempssy-B Burg Affair
at a Complete Standstill.
Patrolmsn 'Gene Hickey Receives II
Reply.

1t is difficult to say just what Jack
Dempsey's advisers mean to do In the
way OF getting him a match They went
so far in their negotiations with DICK
Burge, of England. as to post $1,000 for
felt with Richard X. Fox, and that fact
hurried Burge over from England to
clinch the affair.
Now that he is here 1t Is found that
no club is anxious to put up a purse
for a meeting between these two. and
Burge is casting his eyes rcgretfully
towards Albion's shores again. Judge
Newton is credited with saying that
he'll not toy with the match until the
Corbett-Mitchell affair is settled. at any
rate.
Burge has twice visited the United
States to make a match, and he hasn't
succeeded to any great extent. 1t is
certain that II the Coney Island Club
doesn't offer a purse no other organiza-
ton will. Dempsey is popular here and
would draw d good crowd. How large
a one 1t would turn out to be. after all
the delay n all the talk about his
condition, is a .problematical question.

Real Estate.

One of the most beautiful
tracts of land anywhere in the
region of New York consists on
Staten Island of the Guyon
Farm, at Giffords- by-the- Sea,
the Woods of Arden, a short
distance below it, and the in
tervening properties, altogether
comprising about six hundred
acres. This land has an eleva-
ton at Gifords of about one
hundred feet above tide water.
The slope of half a mile down
to the water is gradual and
pleasing, and just now the trees
and shrubs L gorgeous with
their Autumn tints. The place
is remote from the odors and
nrisances which aftiict SO many
suburbs of New York. The own
ers carefullyrcstrict the portions
which they sell, so that things
noxious and offensive may not
obtain an entrance. IL is i'm
possible to find u similar tract
of land so near New York, 30
accessible and so well adapted
for delightful Summer cottages.
Erastus Wiman purchased the
Guyon Farm and the Woods of
Arden when the Rapid Transit
was building. He had full
knowledge of the situation. and
bought the choicest property on
the island. Disaster resulting
from other ventures overlook
him, and now David Bennett
King, as trustee for his credi-
tors, is now compelled to sell
these superb lands at whatever
price they will bring. This is
unfortunate for Mr.. Wiman, but
will prove the greatest boon to
hundreds of now landless peo-
pie who would otherwise be
doomed to pay continual rent to
their landlords.

A MeMeNTo OF WIDOW STORY.

Benjamin Smalley was the first man
with family to settle in Middebury.
He came from Salisbury, Conn, in l773.
His house was built of hewn logs II
inches square, with an inside lining, and
the space filled with sand. The ceiling
overhead was the same kind, with one
foot of sand. 1t was intended to be bull
let-proof. This statement is from Mr.. j.
r. New, who took down the house and
owns the farm. Mr.. Smalley brought II
COW bell from Connecticut. He also
married the Widow Story, and after his
death she was the owner of the hell. 1t
passed into the possession of Stephen
Chapman and thence to his son, William
Chapman, who has just placed it in the
Sheldon museum. 1t is Just l20 wears
since it was brought into town.

Suddenly somebody stepped forward and
said ''What is that, madam, on your

watch. 1t had caught on one of the
wires of the umbrella, and had been
drawn from the pocket, doubtless while
its owner was elbowing through the jam.
Hyde said he was glad that the watch
