AIR AND NO DRAUCHTS.
Frenchman's Simple Method Of Secur-
ing Perfect Ventilation.


novel system for ventilating rooms
was invented by DR.. Castaing, a physi-
elan in the French army. which does
away with draughts or expensive APP
pliances.
The system Of ventilation of DR..
Castaing is extremely simple and cheap,
and it continually renews the atmos-
phere without being felt by the occu-
pants of the room. Two ordinary panes
of window glass are placed in the up
per frame of one or more windows, as
follows: One pane, the outer one, is
placed in the sash and held in place as
usual by glazier points and putty;
the only difference from an ordinary
pane is that il is about two inches too
short and raised that much from the
bottom, leaving the lower edge free,
end and the two sides. A second pane,
the inner one. IS placed against the
molding of the same sash, which is al
ways wide enough to admit of its being
used for this purpose. This glass is
also cut about two inches short, but is
adjusted so that the open space is on
top. This pane is held in position Ey
the lower edge and the two sides. The
space between the two panes should
rot be less than one-half inch. 1t is,
however, regulated by the thickness Of
the framework and the depth of the
inner molding-
As the invention was at first applied,
the inner pane was stationary, the
same as the outer, and permanently
held in place by points and putty.
When practically applied serious OBJ
jections were raised to this arrange
ment. The space between the panes
was too narrow to admit of thorough
cleaning while the two panes We're
permanently fixed, and, however they
tried. the glass was too much subject
to breakage. To avoid this and to make
the cleaning easy, the inner pane should
Be movable, and SO arranged that it

I be the best"
/ The truth OF the matter IS that one
I golf ground cannot be compared with
another, any moro than the blonde
sweetness of confdentially charming
woman can be compared to the da sh of
the independent type of girl. Even so
the golf links that just suit one party
Of golfers would be scoffed at by an
other, and the field wholly admira BILE
70 one would be looked at as impossible
by the next party.
| The ideal golf ground for mixed par
ties-men and women-is the Newport
field. 1t was planned largely by Mrs.
John Jacob Astor, and has all the adj
mira bic features that rule all the ath
letic sports with which that lady is con-
nected. There are no stone walls too
high for the ladies to climb, no dread
full streams too deep to be lesped by
those who must hold up skirts, and no
awful hills that tire one before the last
link is in sight.
Upon her place az Rhinebeck Mrs.
Astor has another golf field. But here
the course, planned especially for Mr..
Asto- and his friends. is very difficult,
and often there i climbing 70 be done
over hedges. and there i one place
where ponies are in readiness for a
water Jump, and a. this spot there IS
also a tiny ferry boat 70 take the cad
dies across and those whose am billions
do not lean toward the jump across the
water.
The most skillful Of all the golfers
IS Miss Virginia Fair. the western heir
eSs, who. with her sister, Mrs. Oelrichs,
spends much time every summer at the
game. For Mis- Fair, the links are
never shortened. and she takes her

course, it had 10 carry the ball over
TO the stream; and in il fell. The wind
next rushed it of down the stream. and,
after chasing it as far as the links al
lowed, it had to be given up for lost
and new ball substituted. In con-
sequence of losing the ball at this
bunker. it was named 'Gertrudes Di-
lemma." and has been avoided since by
players.
Several society women like 10 watch
the progress OF the game from n bicy-
Gle, following the ball down the links
and around the course TO the home
stretch again Miss Louise McAllister
is one of these and another is Mrs
James Bloodgood, who is very expert at
golf herself.
The method of the bicyclers Is this:
Stationing themselves upon their
wheels, they wait for the first drive and
then the second; then wheeling off as
fast as they can, they race with the
caddies and take up a station not far
from where the balls have landed.
When the next drives are made they
follow, and, finally, they establish
themselves upon the putting ground to
watch The delicate operation of land
ing the balls in the hole. When il is
time To start from the second teeing
place they are on hand, and SO through
out the course. OF course, the links
must ne pretty smooth to permit of fol-
lowing on bicycle; and where they
are rough often driveway is con
structed for the bicyclers so that they
reach the holes in circuitous way,
like the carriage followers at q hunt.
Miss Helen Gould is very athletic at
the golf Kinks. She is accurate, too.
And her equal is not found among the
Hudson river amateurs. She does not
care for club grounds, and never has
played except at Irvingtcn, where,
however, she collects her friends round

ing and trustful friend to these men,
rough. grim and dark with coal dust
who labored all day in this deep hole in
the earth, far from sunlight. Jerry's
baby, with her hsped sentences and
little gestures, treated them all as com
rades. When they spoke of her, one
might think they were talking of lit
tie silver idol of some religion. And
her power was never questioned Hel
baby smile ruled men. and moreover
she had done that which no man in the
Maffet Patch had succeeded in doing.
She had tanned Jerry.
Had you asked, three months before
this time, who Jerry was, the stable
boss, if you were a man, would have
told you in most vivid and picturesque
manner, which, though it might have
shocked, would have forever impressed
you with Jerry's character. If wom-
an. the stable boss would have said,
after little time to collect in his mind
words to fit the occasion: Gle is the vi

mines"
In the first place Jerry had a bad
record. He came from the south with
a lot of others, and was sent down the
mine 10 wear his life away in the damp,
lamp-lit darkness, pulling heavy cars
during the day, eating mush and corn,
sleeping in a little stall, and having
rats as large as kittens run over him
at night This was decidedly objection
able to a mule of Jerry's high spirit,
but he apparently realized he could not
help himself, and forthwith proceeded
to make life as disagreeable as posi-
Bile for those who had anything to do
with him; he could work if he wanted,
and when, as the drivers said, he had
ga working streak on" be could pull
a heavier load, and do it quicker than
anv mule in the mine; but he did not
always have working streaks on"
He was not different from ordinary
mules, except in one particular; his
hind legs when he was walking APP
peared TO have no joints: one miner,
when Jerry's life as a mine mule COM
menced, remarked this fact and said:
''That mules no good, his joints is
stiff, and he scratched Jerry's leg
with long wisp Of straw. 1t tickled,
and the man lodged just in time to eS-
cape Jerry hoofs, which splintered
the end OF car against which he had
been leaning. Thus Jerry earned his
reputation as a vicious animal.
He killed one man. The fellow was
n brute and Jerry was obstinate at
times, consequently the mule was some
times horribly beaten and kicked. One

Village Meeting,

The annual Village Meeting was held
to day, the polls opening at a. m. On
motion the business to be transacted,
noted in the warning, aside from the
election of officers, was postponed until
/ o. clock p. m. The voting was orderly,
and no excitement except in Wards 2 and
6, where there were contests. The Aud
itors' report was necessarily incomplete
because of their inability to settle with
the collector, the collection of taxes,
noted in another place, leaving the mat
ter where it cannot be settled to-day.
Judge Mason reported that there had
been expended on the streets
in round numbers $1,000, and that
the funds for highway purposes had been
overdrawn some $3.50, not counting the
taxes and cash in the hands of the col
lector. The running expenses of the viii
lage, including payment of some $1,000
on a debt of last year amounting to 3d.
600, had been about $4,000, 1t was stat
ed that the fire department would cost
from 81 800 to s., 600 less than last year,
which aggregated SCOTIA. The partial
report of the auditors was accepted and
they were directed to complete the same,
causing it to be published in the village
newspapers, and filed with the clerk.
A tax of 50 cents on the Grand List
dollar was voted to be paid to the treas
urer, and the rate bill to be ready July
LIST. The Austranan ballot was adopted
to be used at the next annual meeting
and special meetings intervening. A res
olutiOn to contra 1t for water to sprinkle
the streets wa, laid on the table.
1t was unanimously voted to adopt the
resolutions presented to the caucus land
adOpted), directing the Trustees to find
out the cost of the water works, the in
come and operating expenses, to publish
their report in the village papers, and to
report at a special village meeting, called
for that purpose as soon as practicable.
The matters of hydrants on South street
and additional arc lights at various
points, were referred to the Trustees
with power to act.
The following general ticket was elect
ed, no opposition appearing: &. IL. Oar
ling, president; John II. KelsO, clerk;
Chas. II. Dewey, treasurer; G. II. Mason,
John p. Guiltinan, II. d. Fillmore, audi
tors: Frederick Godfrey, collector.
The Trustees were elected as follows:
Ward 1, J. S Holden; 3, John Carrgan;
4, Col. Oln Scott; ), Dr.. f. 5. Pratt; Z,
Fremont Gregg. These were elected
without opposition.
In Ward 6, C. N. Powers, independent,
was elected over S. H. lockwood, 45 to
80 votes, 2 defective ballots.
In Ward 2, Martin Lyons, regular, was
elected over W. c. Hitchcock, 81 to 81
votes.
