THE MILLION DOLLAR HOME.

build a country house to suit him III
Madison, n. J., but he recently took u
notion that he wanted to join the SUM :
mer colony at Newport. After looking
over dozens of costly cottages he made
up his mind that the mansion ard estate
owned by Louis Lorillard and known as
Vinland would just about suit him.
Mr. Lorillard said he was willing To
sell, but that his price was 81, 1000, 600.
This was the highest price ever put on a
house in Newport. When Cornelius Van
derbilt gave Pierre Lorillard $400, 600
for the Breakers property, which adj
joins Vinland, he established a record
which had not been broken up tn that
time. But Mr.. Twombly had decided
that he wanted Vinland, and so he
''saw'' his brother-in law and event
him 5000, 900 better. -
There is no doubt that he has as fine
q summer residence as any in the coun-
try Only two other houses in Newport
Mrs. W. Z. Vanderbilt's Marble
House and the Breakers-equa1 it III
magnifcence. The estate was bequeathed
to Louis Lorillard by his aunt, tho late
Miss Catherine Lorillard Wolfe, who
built the house. The property, besides
the massive brown stone villa, includes
an estate of 3 acres of the most desira-
BILE land in Newport. There are also
commodieus stables, a lOdgekeeper 5
cottage, greenhouses and extensive Crap
cries. The villa is exquisitely furnish
ed throughout, this having been done
according to the refined and artistic taste
of Miss Wolfe, and it is to be turned oye5
to Mr.. Twombly just as it stands.

There is one less damage suit pending
against Chief of Police Wilkerson The
suit of Clarence Waverly for 50, 100 was
dismissed this morning. Waverly was
arrested for burglarizing a butcher shop
about year ago, but was afterward dis
charged, Soon after his discharge a
suit for damages against Chief Wilker
was fled.
Waverly told JOURNAL reporter that
the suit was brought by d. c. Tillotson
over his protest. He said that he did not
wish to bring the suit, but MIR. Tillotson
told him that there wonld be some money
in it for him and that he would lose
nothing.
This is possibly the secret of most of
the damage suits brought against Chief
Wilkerson and other officers.

The announcement that Rev. ]. G.
Dougherty was in Topeka urging Gov
ernor Morrill, to turn over the police de-
partment of Kansas City, Kansas. to the
mayor of that city, has stirred up the
people of Kansas City, Kansas. The
Gazette says:
1.-The feeling prevails that if the police
department is turned over to control
of the city government it would result
in the establishment of a political ma
chine in municipal politics that would
produce infinitely worse conditions
than now prevail under the Metro
politan police system. A mayor might
be elected who by the influence he
would have through the control of the
police department. establish local po-
litical dynasty with himself as absolute
dictator. The present board of police
commissioners appears to be giving gen
eral satisfaction, for the reason that it
runs the department under strictly bust
ness methods"

action that paper says:
