AN OLD CUSTOM.
1t Doesn't BELONG Particularly to
New Jersey, However.

They have a novel way of celebrating
birthdays at ImlaystoWn, a little farm
ing community in New Jersey, says the
New York Home Journal. When G. b.
Abrams, the telegraph operator at the
railway station, attained his majority
seven of the village maidens deter
mined to give him surprise visit.
Each girl armed herself with birch
switch and the seven marched in q
body to the depot to administer 147
strokes on the body of the operator
twenty-one for each girl. Abrams was
ordered to come ont He had caught
a glimpse of the switches in the hands
of the girls and refused to obey the
summons. When opportunity offered, he
fled through side door of the station
and climbed UP in the boughs of a
neighboring tree. The girls espied him
and made bee line for the tree. None
of the girls cared to climb after him
and there was a long parley Finally
it was agreed that Abrams would be
let off with only twenty-one strokes,
instead of 147 originally intended. The
young man took his punishment cour-
ageously, although none of the strokes
were heavy enough to make a mark.
After this Abrams was invited to the
village, where a dinner had been pre-
pared for the occasion. Games, music
and songs were INDUCED in, and then
the party dispersed.

AN OCTAGONAL HOUSE.
Prof. FOwler's Strange Concrete
Structure Recently Destroyed.

frof. FoNvler's Strange Concrete
Structure Recently Destroyed.
When Prof o. S. Fowler began. near
~ fifty years ago, to build an eccentric
looking house at Fishkill Landing, N.
T.. on the Hudson, he declared that
ne was going to have a home which
would neither burn, blow over nor de-
cay, but which would increase in stabil-
lty as 1t increased in age. He accomp-
i1Shed what he set out to do, for when
Workmen recently attempted to tear
down the structure it defied their pick
axes as II 1T had been solid granite and
was only RACED by liberal use of dyna-
mite.
Half century ago Prof Fowler was
well known throughout the Eastern
states as a speculative and experiment
tai phrenologist possessed of no little
inventive genius. He accumulated a
fortune of considerable size and in 1S47
purchased near Fishkill Landing an
estate of 1873 acres. The grounds he i'm
proved and beautified in many ways,
planting many fruit trees berry bushes
shrubs and flowers. Then he went to
firm of New York architects and en-
gagged them to draw plans for house
under his special direction He wanted
an octagonal house and he wanted it
built of concrete. So it was done. From
the time when the eight-sided struc-
ture began to rise from the foundations
to the day of its final demolition it was
an object of curiosity and comment.
People called it "FOwler's Castle" and
"FOWler's Folly" and travelled miles to
see it, 1t was three stories high and
had basement and a cupola. There
were eighty rooms in the house, al
though it did not appear to be so large
at first glance.
But Prof. Fowler was immensely
pleased with the house and for ten
years lived in it with his family. Then,
owing to financial reverses, it passed
out of his hands and was successfully
used as an academy, as a boarding
house and as an abode for such tenants
as could be persuaded to occupy It,
Prof Fowler died ten years ago, and
for a long time the house was unoccu-
pied. Finally the last owner decided
to destroy 1t and put the land on which
it stood to other uses.
Prof. Fowler was so much interested
in the house that he wrote a book
about 1t. In this volume he dwelt at
great length upon the reasons which in
duced him to build it in the form Of
an OctagOn. The idea of using concrete
he obtained in Wisconsin, where he had
seen a house built of that material The
outer walls of the first story were
eighteen inches thick, and the longer
they stood the harder they grew. The
book was never published, but rela-
tives have the manuscript in their pos
session.

oLNEY ON ANDREWS.
The Ex-Secretary Addresses Brown
University's Faculty.


PROVIDENCE, R. l., Sept. 1.-The
corporation Of Brown university he'd
q meeting here today behind closed
doors, and every precaution was taken
to keep the proceedings secret. The
attendance was large. The meeting
was called to order by DR.. Andrews,
but he retired few minutes later and
Rev. Alvah Hovey, D. D., of Newton
Theological school, took the chair. The
early part of the session was taken
up mainly in routine business.
Among the matters which came
up during the session was
the presentation of a letter from ex-
Secretary of State Richard Olney ad-
dressed to the faculty, and bearing
upon the controversy between the cor
poration and President Andrews. The
letter is as follows:
Prof. Benjamin F. Clarke. and Others
thank you heartily for a pamphlet copy OF
letter bearing your signatures, and entitled

of Brown University by Members of the
Faculty Of that Institution"
Nothing could be better in matter or man
ner. 1t presents the grave tissues raised by
the unfortunate action of the corporation
with singular lucidity and logical force, and
deals with them in temper and spirit which

precise ground that nothing could be better
calculated to give currency and weight to
those views-just as nothing would. give a
greater impetus to the cause of tariff reform
than attempt by the authorities of Harvard
college to discipline President Elliott for his
well known sentiments respecting free trade.
The true objection, however, to the course
pursued towards DR.. Andrews by the corpo-
ration of Brown university is its implied in
quotations of the doctrine that an institution

except 200 employed in the Christy,
Flint Valley and Des Moines Coal and
Mining company's mines, went out,
following the lead Of the Carbonate

cided by a meeting held today to stand
by the demand for 81 ton. A confer
ence meeting was appointed to confer
with the operators. About 800 men are
out The operators issued a statement
a few days ago, refusing to grant the
price asked by the miners, and it is
reasonably certain they will not give
in. The present price is Is and 80 cents,
and the operators may grant 80 cents,
with a possibility of going to 80 cents.

among the miners as Polk county, but
the strike may effect the official Des

TWO DIVORCES IN ONE TERM.
A St. Louis WOman's Lightning Di-

Chicago must give up to St. Louis the palm
for lightning divorces and double quick
marriages. Mrs. Gussie Campbell Spencer. of
the latter city. has recently distinguished her
self and incidentally humbled Chicago by
getting two divorces during one term of the
st. Louis county court. Two days after her
second divorce she was again married to her
first husband William Spencer, while the di-
vorcee, DR.. Henry e. Winslow. consoled him
self by taking a wife at Kansas City.
Last June Mrs. Spencer was divorced from
her husband, William Spencer, on the ground
of drunkenness and abuse. She resumed her
maiden name of Campbell and a fortnight
later was married in Chicago to DR.. Henry J.
Winslow Six days later DR.. Winslow left his
bride and went to Kansas City with Mrs
Marder, of Chicago. few days ago Mrs.
Winslow secured a divorce from him in the
same court where her first divorce had been
granted only short time before.
In the meantime Spencer had abandoned his
drinks habits. The couple became reconciled
and were remarked. And DR.. Winslow made
the story complete by marrying Mrs Marder.

IRELAND AS A RESORT.
1T Is Rapidly Becoming One of the
FavOrite Haunts of Tourists.

Oh IOuF1StS.
The question is continually asked,
Why is Ireland, with it's exquisite
scenery and almost unrivaled beauty,
neglected by the peripatetic Saxon?
There are, or have been, invariably
two methods of solving the problem
The Saxon has shrugged his shoulders
and repeated for the thousandth time
the old formula about the discomfort
and the excessively high tariff of the
Irish hotel Or, on the other hand,
he may have remarked on the dilator-
mess of the Irish railway train. 1t is
not for US to deny, says ST. James
Gazette, that, to very considerable
degree, complaints of this character
have been more than justified; but a
recent and rather extended experience
of both these necessary adjuncts to
the business of touring has revealed to
us the fact that such grounds of dis
satisfaction are being rapidly and GER
tainly removed. Ireland has at last
awakened to her possibilities as a
tourist resort Which-whether it be in
sea, mountain, lake or river scenery
rivals, if it does not excel, Scotland
and Wales.

The virtue of consistency is giving
the citizens of Somersworth, N. H., a
lot of trouble. First, Mayor Hanson
caused the arrest of those who sold
candy and soda water on Sunday, in
order that the Sunday law might be
consistently enforced. Then one of
the men arrested thought that con-
sistency required the arrest of the
mayor, who runs livery stable which
hires horses on Sunday. The mayor
was fined S.. Lastly, citizen threat
ems to have the authorities of the Meth
odist church arrested for the unnec-
essary ringing of the church bell on
Sunday The result of all this is that
nearly everybody in the town is angry
with somebody else.
