ATablet nj sc1ooby.

A dispatch from London announces
the sailing of the steamer Gallia for
Boston of w. II. Davis of Plymouth,
and says:
Some time ago the Plymouth Pill
gnim society determined to permanent
ly mark the spot where the movement
that eliminated in the voyage of the
Mayflower was organized on English
soil, and a handsome bronze tablet,
measuring "a by 20 inches, was made,
bearing the following inscriptions: This
tablet is erected by the Pilgrim society
of Plymouth, Mass, United States of
America, to mark the site of the an
Gent manor house where lived William
Brewster from 1888 to 1908, and where,
in 1906, he organized the Pilgrim
church, of which he became ruling
elder, and with which he went in 1905
to Amsterdam, in 1909 to Leyden. and
in 1920 to Plymouth, where he died Au-
gust 16, 1910"
Mr.. Davis brought this tablet to Eng
land a few weeks ago. Nothing what
ever remained of Scrooby Manor house.
Gloss to its site, however, a substan-
tial farm house was located, and Mr..
Davis attached the plate to the heavy
masonry wall of the farm house.

We're it not for the remains from the

atus employed is that Of NM, Tosoul

gas with recuperator. Incinerations
are accomplished in an hour, or at
most an hour and quarter, and the
cost of the combustible never exceeds
francs per operation. Another appara-
tus, invented by M, Fichet, has been
employed of late, Like the first, it
consists of a gazogene furnishing oxide
of carbon and recuperator supplying
hot air to the vaulted chamber in which
the reduction to ashes takes place. The
difference between the two appliances
lies chiefly in the application of the
oxide, which is used solely for heat
ing the recuperator, the combustion Of
the body being effected by hot air alone
thanks to the augmented efficiency thus
obtained. According to this method in
cineration takes places a little more

Many universities, schools, academ-
les and learned societies have of late
years celebrated them centenaries, or
even half centenaries; but no institu-
ton has acquired a better right to do
SO than the Institut de France. As its
present constitution dates from the
third Brumaire of the year ", it has
been determined to celebrate the CEN
tenary of its foundation from the 23rd
to the Goth of October of the present
year. But the history of this great in
stitution goes back to a far more dis
tant time. 1t was Richelieu who, in
1885, established the Academic Fran
caise, and it was this academy which,
unfted with three other academies, that
of physical science, of moral and polit-
ical sciences and of the fine arts, form
ed the French institute in 1875. There
have been many chages In the organi-
zation of this splendid national instftu-
ton, the most important being the sup
preston of the Academic DIES Sciences
Morales ct Politiques under the first
empire. There remained, however, four
academies-O LAcademie Franchise,
~ I'Academie des Inscriptions ct
Belles-Lettres, (3) L'Academie des Sci
ences, and az Academic des Beaux-
Arts. The title Of the second acad-
emy is curious. 1t is really the acad-
envy for scholarship and archaeology
but, aus it's members We're required to
assist the government in the prepare
ton of inscriptions on public monu-
ments. medals and coins, it has retain
ed the title of Academic DIES Inscrip-
tions et Belles-Lettres, to the present
day. In 1882 the Academic DIES Sci
ences Morales ct Poltiques was re-es-
tabliahed, so that the Institut de France
consists at present of five academies.
The number of members of each acad-
envy has likewise varied from time to
time. AT present the Academic Fran
| caise consists of forty members, the
Academic 5es Sciences of sixty-eight,
the Academic DIES Beaux-Arts and the
Academic des Sciences Morales ct Poll
tiques of forty members each. Each
academy has also a number Of mem

An UNPLEASANT SITUATION.

There has been much discussion of the
pronunciation of the name Valllyrie. It
has now been practically decided that
the only correct pronunciation is Den
mis-. 1t is plain that the English yacht
is no match for the American. But the
situation is decidedly unpleasant. The
decision of the committee concerning
the foulfng in the second race was not
what most people hoped it would be,
though it was undoubtedly fair and in
strict and honorable accordance with
the rules of the game Almost every
body would have been much better
pleaser if the race could have been sail
ed over again, and there would have
been little or no lamentation had it been.
given to the English. There is no glory
in winning by foul, and 1t is evident
that the Defender could have given
away one race and not suffered fatally.
But the committee did it's duty and no
fault can fairly be found with it. Per
haps, too, no fault can fairly be found
with Lord Dunraven for his action yes
terday in refusing to go over the course.
It is true that he has from the first pro-
tested against the interference of the
excursion steamers. 1t is also true that
they have interfered. They could not
well have been kept from interfering.
Their managers advertised to give their
passengers a good view Of the race and
they tried to do it. Dunraven put the
matter well when he said in his letter:
1.-THE fact is that when a contest be-
| tween the representatives of two yacht
clubs excites so much popular interest
and attracts such crowds of people, If
| the races are sailed in the immediate
| neighborhood Of a great city and the
dates of the races and times of starting
are known and advertised, it is impossi-
| bic to keep "a, course free from causes of
exceptional danger and clear enough to
assure the probability that the result of
the match will be decided according to
the relative merits of the competing YES
sels.' But the situation was as bad for
the Defender as for the Valkyrie, and
no protest against the interference Of
the excursion steamers has been made
| NV tho managers of the Defender They
were willing to tackle the Valkyrie I'M
i der any conditions that could be had.
| 1t is regrettable that the English Wis
ftors must go home discouraged and
Idisgusted. 1t is regrettable that the De-
| fender couldn't have a more abundant
victory. But lit is not at all regrettable
| that THE fact sticks out like q big steel
boom that the English are not yet ahead
of the Yankees in the arts of yacht
| building and yacht sailing.

Horse brook twists and turns through a
considerable portion of Hampstead, and
then empties itself in to the Hampstead
reservoir, and this Hampstead reser-
vor supplies in large part the city of
Brooklyn with it's water.
There is another small rivulet, known
as the Scotic, emptying into this reser-
voir, but it is insignificant as to size
and volume of water. OF that water
which makes up the aggregate of the
reservoir, Horse brook must supply a
large proportion. Such natural springs
as are found i'm the reservoir have not
been measured.
To describe Horse brook is to call
it an insignificant brooklet. When seen
at the close of July it was nowhere
more than six feet in breadth--that is,
as it ran through Hampstead. In
depth it could not have averaged more
than eight inches. 1t had slight cur
rent, following the nature of all rivu-
let's, though the speed of the water
was checked by numerous twists and
turns. Following out this particular
brook it was found that there was a
feeder to it dignified by the name of
the West stream. Over this West
stream the crossing could be made
without increasing the natural walk
ing stride. The day Horse brook and
its feeder We're visited, the 31st of July,
ought to have been a propituous one as
to their general appearance, because
there had been a good deal of rain
during the entire month, and on the af-
ternoon of the 30th of July there had
been a heavy downpour. I'M winter
from the thawing of the snow, and from
heavy spring rains, Horse brook breaks
bounds and there is miniature fresh
et Creeks naturally take the lowest
level. and so Horse brook, true to its
character, meanders along at the base
Of the undulating ground of the town
or village of Hampstead.
Into this brook comes the large por-
ton of the e-droppings of the
street, for every rain must carry ii
there. Facilities for cleansing the
STREETS of Hampstead are further extend
ed by means of pipes are sewers lead
ing directly into the Horse brook. Ir
Hampstead, not far from the brook, are
two church yards, and in ONE Of them
a few years ago there were interments
The grade in proximity to the brook
is an easy one three or four feet ir
a thousand. In occasional parts Of
Hampstead it is more rapid.

GOING no ATLANTA.

The second company of the Cover
nor's Foot Guard voted last evening to
go to the Atlanta exposition. This ac-
ton makes it sure that New Haven
will be properly and brilliantly repre-
scented there, and that the lustre of
the State of Connecticut there will be
more lustrous than it would have been
had not such action been taken. But
while we justly yet modestly glory in
the renown which will come to New
Haven and Connecticut from the ap-
pearance at Atlanta of New Haven's
shining troop, we cannot forbear con-
graduating the people of Atlanta and
the people Of other places who will be
visiting them on the good thing they
will have in the presence and the
parading of that troop. And especially
do we felicitate them on the fact that
they will have an eye and soul-satis-
flying opportunity to see the famed
legs of the troop. Those legs have
hitherto, we believe, only been shown
in their full symmetry and splendor
in New Haven and in Trenton, New
Jersey. But those> appearances have
been enough to give them a distinc-
ton that will not fade or shrink so
long as an appreciation of that which
is glorious in Nature and in Art shall
endure. Those legs have already a
celebrity eo-extensive with civilization.

An Impure Source of BroolSly Water.
From Harper's Weekly.1


Hampstead is a small town on Long
Island, in Queens county, some twenty
one miles from Brooklyn. It is an old
settlement, dating back from the mid
die of the seventeenth century. The
population may be something over 5000.
It is a fairly tidy town, somewhat ex-
tended, presenting about the same con-
ditions as do small country centres.
There are clean people and dirty peo-
pie in all towns. IN Hampstead the
clean people are decidedly in the ma
jority, and this is visible from the neat
ness Of the houses and the well-shorn
lawns.
Deriving its source from various
ponds, there is a small rivulet at Hemp
stead known as Horse brook. This

of round hat of gray felt with a
straight brim turned UP in back and a
moderately high crown. A ruffle of
gathered gray silk lies on top of the
lbrim, and the garaiture consists of a
spreading bow of gray ribbon and sew
eral long stemmed pink roses. A new
departure in trimming is seen, in the
center rose, whose leafless stem is en-
cireled with bows of shaded green sat
in ribbon.
For those who refuse to give up the
pretty parting of the hair, the Napol-
con cue will be permitted. The parted
hair Is puffed fully over the ears and
so drawn loosely to the back, where it
IS braided. The braid is allowed to
hang we'll ON the nape of the neck, is
then turned under and a large ''cue''
bow is placed just where 1t will hold
the hair firmly into the curve of the
head. This same bow is often made so
wide that it shows coquettishly from
the front, at either side as did the
bows worn a little while ago ON collars.
For added dressiness a high comb is
set in at the top Of the braid and APP
pears over the top of the head from
the front, giving the effect of height
and the iaunty touch that has SO often
been confusing with the occurrences
of the recent pretty side curls.
If it is desired to take Marie An
tonietta for a model, them the pretty
parting that has made so many mis-
chiefs look demure must be given up.
Away demurity, and hail artificiality
and elaborateness! Marie Antoinette's
favorite portrait shows her with her
| hair peeled back into a tobogSan, slide
from her brow. The slide slants up
about six inches, then breaks into a
| series of puffs, and still further UP

and light colors. too, they will have
to give up hugging entirely.
