later the prospects were brighter. BY
the middle Of June Lafayette was IN
hot chase after CORVALLIS and Wash
ington was planning with Rochambeau
to eject the capture of New York City.
On July 4, 1871, their forces met at
Dobb5 Ferry. Washington removed
his headquarters from the house of Jo-
seph Appleby, which thenst cd few
miles from the Hudsol, on what was
later called Washington's Hill, TO the
Van Brugh Livin yston mansion. There
he held many conferences with Ro-
chambeau and the leaders of the Con-

When Washington leIrn d that the

Con te de Grasse, was headed for the
Chesapeake, he d .termined to aban-
don the movement against New York,
join ! lafayette at the York peninsula,
and force the end of the war by COM

Crops Injured BY Hail

A storm OF wind, rain, and lightning

Of Aledo, Ill, causing considerable
damage and loss of life. The barn of
L. @ Detwiler was struck by lightning
and burned; loss, $500; no insurance.
An inner wall Of the new courthouse

Nandam street was very modest little
affair. The two brothers, wLo came
originally to seek the fortunes in this
country, had learned the sugar-baktng
business in LonGo on, and even when
Henry O.'s father began work in the
Vandam street conc 1t was called
the Havemeyer bakery" 1t was con-
sidered very creditable days work
in those days when they baked an
entire hog head of sugar in a day.
The building in which the entire Hav-
emeyer business was conduct d was a
little concern only IS f OF wide by 40
feet in length. Thi, is In rather strik-
ing contrast with the enormous Will
iamsburg plant, covering acres of
ground, and the output of the surgar
trusts works-and the Havemeyers
vi: tually are the sugar trusts very
many mes mCre in single day than
was the entire yearly production OF the
Vandam street factory. Yet even in
those early days the Havemeyers were,
as they are now, at the head OF the
sugar-refining indu.try In the United
States, for the Vandam street co jcern
was the largest establi hment OF the
kind in the United States.
When tho two original Havemeyer
brothers retired they were succeeded
by their two sons, Will lam f., who
afterwards was mayor OF New York
for several terms, and Frederick c.,
the father of both Theodore A. and
Henry O. Havemcyer, who are now at
the head OF the enormous trust inter
ests. In 1891 the two cou ins. William
F. and Frederick c., took charge of
the business and continued it until
1872, when both retired, each letting q
brother, Albert and Frederick, con-
tinue the business.

One hundred and thirteen years ago it

On flag day, or the> anniversary of
the adoption of the stars and stripes J

day should be commemorated by laying
the base stone of a monument to mark
the house in which the Yorktown cam

chief arranged for the evacuation OF
American soil by the British, and OPP

The monument will be of a plain

Washington was at Dobbs Ferry for
nearly six weeks before he decided

The Young Woman Brought Over the

On the promise Of seeing something
new, II not startling, accompanied an
acquaintance to meet an incoming
steamer from Europe. My acquaint-
ance had informed me that his cousin
was bringing over goods OF very great
value, and expected that considerable
trouble would be consumed In examin-
ing and appraising the articles. The
cousin" was an attractive young Lady
and looked rosy and healthy as she
tripped down the long plank. She had
delightful voyage, ETC., and had been
good enough to bring only two trunks.
These were found, an inspector made
hasty examination of the contents,
saw that they were only ordinary wear
ing apparel, chalked the backs, and we
started of. We went uptown and made
for good restaurant. The interesting
small talk Of travellers filled in the
time until we three were seated at a
table and the order given for luncheon.
The lady sat next to the wall
Il suppose everything Is all right,
julio" asked my friend.
Yes, indeed, she replied, smiling
triumphantly
Il promised to show this gentleman
something" he said There's no dan
ger that anybody will catch on, so If
you've no objection"
He paused. She blushed irritably
and replied: We'll, don't know that
care, but it's unu ual."
Then she reached down toward the
floor on the side next the wall. and Of
course don't know exactly what she
did but when her hand appeared again
1t was closed over something. She
held it toward me, saying open both
hands and be CAREFUL" | did as she
told me, and she laid upon my palms a
garter that fairly blazod with dia-
monds. took one look and whispered,

while her companion smiled approval
and remarked: Il shall keep that in
teresting piece OF ribbon. IL saves me
several thousand dollars in duties"
There's another like it," said the
fair cousin, but guess I won't take
that Oft. The other, of course, was on
the side rot next to the wall. You
have to get cab now for your curiosi-
ty," she added, for that article was
worn for use as we'll as profit, and If l

that wouldn be pleasant"
And after lunch the happy smugglers
