No RICH man ever gave SO largely
bithr in lifetime or at his death, as Le-
land Stanford has given for pnblic OBJ
jects. His memory will live and cher
ished when the carefully accumulated
estates of the mere plutocrats will all
have been scattered and their names
Forgotten. He is mourned by the en-
ployees of his railroads, who found him
just and considerable; by a host of bene-
fciaries who had tested the greatness of
his daily unheralded generosity; and by
personal friends in great number, who
bear witness to his tenderness and gen.
tleness as man, his rare intelligence
and force as thinker, aud his unspoiled
and interrupted nature ALBERT Shaw

LARGEST IN THE WORLD.
Passen ger Elevators ON the Banks of the
Hudson, Near Weehawken,


Hudson, Near Weehawkeu
:, The largest elevators for carrying
passengers in the world have been
completed on the banks of the Hud-
son, near Weehawken, says Harper's
Weekly. The high table-land IN New
Jersey opposite New York city, and
between the Hudson River and the
Hackensack has up to this time not
been used as generally for purposes of
pleasure and residence as it should
have been. -. This elevated plain,
known as the Palisades, is at it's be-
ginning some one hundred and fifty
feet above high tide, and is over a
mile wide at the same point. It
stretches north for many miles up the
Hudson River, and naturally rises in
elevation as it proceeds. This high
land has been accessible only by steep
grades for wagon roads, and by means
OF stairways which climbed laborious-
~ up the steep cliff. The Hudson
county railway company which
operates the elevated road at
Hohoken and controls many
or the street Car lines in that neigh
borhood, has of late years been OK
tending these lines, and increasing the
facilities for getting on top of the Pail
Sades, and from one point of this high
plateau to another. The most recent
addition to the plant of this company
has been In the building Of huge ele-
Yators at Weehawken, where the ferry
boats from Forty-second and Jay
streets, New. York city, discharge their
passengers and where also the West
Shore railway starts north and west to
ALBANY and Buffalo. These elevators
pre- the largest ever constructed for
passengers and in planning them the
engineers have adopted new devices
30 secure their safety against accidents.
,From the elevators, which rise just
from the waters edge, there is an i'm
4nense ,viaduct Or elevated railroad,
(which runs some 500 feet back to the
hill, where connections will be made
with the various steam and horse cars
$Vhich' will run IN one direction and
another.
