is anticipated the appropriation will be

Pa, at Wizards ''Mr Blaine was born at

Stewart represented the district in Congress
he tried to get the government to buy the
property. but democratic House threw
out both Mr.. Stewart and his plan. The
house, which was torn down a couple or
more years ago had beena going to ruin for
years. 1t was owned by'a rich. retired man
named Bowman. While Blaine's father laid
out the town, Bowman s. great grandfather
was appointed tnrastfr of BROWNSVILLE,
the adjoining town. by President Washing
ton. During several months prior to its
demolition the old house was a Mecca for
relic hunters. They came from nearly every
state and territory in the Union to see the
rooms in which the great statesman had
lived. Blaines father. mother and sister
are buried in the little graveyard at
Brownsville. A monument marks their
graves The last time Blaine paid visit
to his old home was on the occasion of the
burial of his sister, who was the wife of
Maj. Robert c. Walker. That was in the
spring of 1885. He might have been Presi-

Vegetable Gardens.
AS far up as the mouth Of the Hoota-

gardens that had been cleared near the
river. Some Of the passengers who were
