THE ROMAN CAMPAGNA.
Half the History of the World Has
Been Written Within It's borders.

Half the History of the World Has
Been Written Within It's Borders.
Marion Crawford in the Century.
In Rome itself one loses sight of the Vati-
can and of the cupola of st. Peters. Tho
view of them is easily shut out when one is
near. But at little distance. as you drive
out upon the Campagna, the dome rears IT
self UP by degrees, as though a giant were
slowly thrusting up his helmeted head from
the horizon. and, YOU go farther away,
the mass rises STILL in respect of the little
ness around it. enormous out of all fore
seen proportion, until II hugely masters and
thrusts down all the rest beneath the level
line Of mist. and towers alone above every
thing, in vast imperial solitude.
But out upon that broad expanse of roll
ing land one need not look forever at st.
Peters dome. Half the history of the world
has been written in stones and blood be-
tween the sea line and the ranging noun
tains. The memory OF Brahman sage, the
tongue Of a Homer, the wisdom of a Solo,
mon kneaded into one human genius, would
not suffice to recall, to describe, and to
Judge all that men have done In that bound
ed plain.
Where the myths OF ages were born and
grew great and died; where the history OF
five and twenty centuries lies buried, ro-
nance has still life to put forth a few tender
blossoms. For, although the day of the
Caesars is darkened. and the twilight OF
their gods has deepened into night, the
human heart has not yet lived out its day or
earned its rest.
On the very spot where you pause. dim
primeval battles were fought, Christian
martyrs died, harharians encamped. Roman
barons slew one another and foreign con-
Querors halted before besieginR Rome.
Where you are standing fair young ST.
Julia may have breathed her last upon the
cross: Augustus may have drawn rein a

A Fortune in q Fence,
From the New York World.

Before the fence which is now being
erected about the grounds Of the Breakers
Cornelius Vanderbilts place, on Ochrs
Point avenue, is finished. 1t will extend, in
all. over half mile Of ground, and will
cost in the neighborhood of $780, 900, a sum
which would purchase any one of half a
dozen cottages on Bellevue avenue.
Work on this fence was commenced over
year ago. but as yet only the strip which
bounds the Ochre Point side has been COM
pfeted, and last week the massive wrought
iron gates swung to and fro for the first
time. The portions of the fence which are
t. bound the estate on the north and south
Will not be completed until next summer
Both the fence and gates are made from
an Italian design. The base of the former
is formed by wall of Indiana limestone
laid on a brick foundation sunk six feet in
the ground.
At intervals Of twenty-five feet rise stone
pillars some twelve feet in height, and be-
tween these is a fence Of light hand
wrought iron grill-work.
At the Ochre Point entrance to the
grounds stand four great pillars, two on
either side of the drive, from which swing
the gates. Rising between the two central
pests and directly over the gates is a most
magnificent piece of grill-work the apex of
which is an iron vase.
In the center Of this is a plaque bearing
the monogram &C. "" in SCROLL
Massive iron lanterns of the Italian re-
Nuisance period swing from these posts
and at either side swing smaller gates
opening to the foot path.

Ex-senator Tabor Of Colorado is not al

been pictured. He is by no means a scholar
nor even an educated man, but he has

he means Trojan, and Venus when he re-
