TO many living things, vet investiga-

cred, for instance, that the seeds Of
many garden and field plants which
find their way into the River Thames
not only survive a long immersion in
the water, but are not even killed by
the cold after being enclosed in ice for
twenty days.

SMUGGLING GOODS TO MEXICO.
Bslsd In New York for Transpsrtati0n
Across the Texas border.

Passing through Hudson street 70

Herald writer, | CHANGED to pass the
establishment Of a firm of folders and
repackers" of dry goods. Before the
door were a hundred or mor little}
bales of goods, bearing odd markings,l
but showing that they were destined
for n firm in Texas, doing business in a
town near the Mexican line. :
"Do you know" asked my compan-
ion, "why those goods are put up in
such small packages?"
Upon replying in the negative he
continued: ''They are to be struggled
across the McSican line. The goods
are purchased in heir original pack
ages and delivcrcl here. The wooden
boxes are discarded and the goods
subjected TO hydraulic pressure and
baled, Each bale contains about thirty
pieces or half the number of IN ordin-
airy dry goods case.
The goods are then shipped TO
Texas, and all marks removed. When
all Is arranged some night the little
bales are slung across the backs OF
mnles. two bales u each animal, and
with an armed escort the train pro
ceeds over the border to some dis,
tributing point in Mexico, where the
goods are sold to Mexican traders at 9
good profit.
Smuggling in this manner is quite
extensively carried on between thi'
country and Mexico, the United States
getting in return ion it's dry goods
which are the most easily handled

course there is a suspicion that the IL

ed to be an unlimited supply of Bryan
backing.
When the offers on Mckinley at those
odds became scarce efforts were made
by Tammany interests, who were said
to have placed upwards of 900 on
Bryan, to hedge" at better terms by
betting against their own candidate. 1t
looked to the stock exchange at one time
as if large amount of hedging might
be arranged at odds of to l on McKin-
ley, or to reverse the terms at to on
Bryan; but the odds quickly returned to
~ to 1 on Mckinley.
Since then the efforts by the Bryan
hackers to hedge have become more ur-
gent. Some of the most liberal offers
on Mckinley are believed to have come
from local democrat tic circles, where a
loss of confidence in the election out
look has created anxiety about the
stakes now up on the Bryan side. With
the odds increased to to 1 the amount
required to offset the bets on Bryan be-
comes SO large that hedging was to-day
regarded as impracticable. On the
stock exchange the comment was made
that Croker had been caught short of
the betting market and would be forced
to settle.
Bettors on the republican side show
no desire to protect themselves or to
hedge, although many of them by ac-
cepting new bets could make absolute
profits now.

"LOHN GILPIN'S" SHOP.

| Passing the western end of Cheapside
the other day we noticed with feeling
akin to regret that the premises in
which Mr.. John Boyer formerly carried
on his business have disappeared. 1t
| is, of course, inevitable that many of
the old landmarks of London should
| be removed in carrying out the i'm
provements rendered necessary by
modern conditions in such matters.
Possibly, however, some Jnay ask, who
was John Boyer? The answer is sup
piled by quotation from an article
contributed by Mr.. William West to
the Aldine Magazine in 1889. In the
course of his "reminiscences, Mr.. West
refers to "a singular and popular char
acter," Mr.. John Boyer, who resided
"at the top Of Paternoster Row, or
rather the top of Cheapside He was
an eminent linendraper, superlatively
polite and no less distinguished
parsonage than the celebrated John
Gilpin, whom the inimitable Cowper
immortalized in the ballad
John GilDin was a citizen
OF credit and renown
A Train Band Captain exc was he
OF famous London Town
This Is not generally known, but that
Cowper had Boyer in his eye when he
wrote the poem I had the assurance
fifty years ago from John Annesley
Colet, who knew Boyer better than I
did, and also Mr.. Cowper and some of
his connections" That Beyer's shop
stood at the northwest corner of Pater-
noster Row is proved by reference to
old directories. In the earlies which
we have examined (1772) we find the
entry, Boyer John linen-draper, 3,
Cheapsde," and from the Gentleman's
Magazine we can learn that he died in
1871, aged ninety-eight. He was sue
ceeded at the same address by Martha
Boyer, but whether she was his daugh-
ter or his widow there Is no means of
ascertaining. In 1899 her name was re-
placed by ALLEN, James, linen draper,
3, Chearside' A good many people
have imagined that the name of the
hero of the ballad was really Galpin
They would not have thought so If
they had remembered that Cowper was
gentleman. 1t ought also to be borne
in mind that the ballad is after all only
founded on facts" as the phrase goes,
and that it is not necessary to suppose
that all it's details are an exact trans
cript of Beyer's experiences.-Lond

NOTES OF THE WIND STORM.

A delivery team driven by young
man named German was upset opposite
Galpins stove store on State street
near the corner of Chapel street, and
for quite a while there was consider
able excitement in that vicinity. The
driver had just returned from the store
of Friend E. Brooks e. Co., where he
is employed. ana had started 10 drive
away when the small hurricane struck
the team. German was thrown to the
ground and his hip was slightly injur-
ed A number of bystanders helped to
right the wagon and free the horse, and
German, after rubbing his hip, took
the horse to Pitkin lane, where he left
it at stable.
A large limb of a tree was blown
down on Dwight street in front of the
residence of James H. F'oy, next the
residence of Judge Bronson, democratic
candidate for governor, and fifteen
flower pots with plants on the lawn in
front of Mr.. Toys house were over
turned.
A branch of a tree on Howe street.
near George, snapped off by the wind.

MINIATURE CYCLONE
Continued from First Page.,

The tree which fell was one of the
largest in the city, being between four
and five feet in diameter at the butt.
Where it had broken off, about two feet
from the ground, it was seen that the
trunk was almost entirely decayed, a
rim of solid green wood only about two
inches in thickness having been all that
supported it, Inside this rim the trunk
was completely decayed. Where the
large limbs were broken 1T could be
seen that they were in the same cond1-
ton. The tree has, therefore, been in
most dangerous condition for some time
and it is likely that it's falling will lead
the city authorities to inspect the otner
large elms of the city to see II they are
in safe condition.
While the wind storm was at Its
height Chapel street and other streets
in the central part of the city We're
swarming with hats. There We're der
by tiles, soft tiles, and all the other
kinds which had been unceremoniously
lifted from the heads of their wearers
and sent skylarking and chasing each
other along the streets. The thorough
fares were filled with chasing men
anxiously coursing through the middle
of the streets after their departing
headgear. Many of the hats We're re-
covered but others were whirled along
more rapidly than their chasing own
ers could run and met destruction
meath the hoofs of the horses in the
street.
On Chapel street were hundreds of
women with baby carriages and the
wind catching these small vehicles car
ried them along with so much force
that the owning mothers could not con-
troll them Nearly all the mothers took
their babies from the carriages and let
the latter be whirled along until they
finally landed in the cutters. Others,
however, attempted to manage the car
riages, but in many instances they
with their infant passengers were car
ried along by the wind until they We're
stopped by crowds of pedestrians try
ing to weather the gale. One baby car
riage was overturned just above Orange
street and the baby as it was falling
to the stone pavement was caught in
the arms of a big policeman and saved
from injury
In various parts of the city limbs of
trees and trees were blown down, but
nowhere were any serious injuries re-
ported.
The wind storm seemed to be central
In New Haven and so far as could be
learned last night it's effects were no
where in this vicinity SO strongly felt
as in the city.

RAVEN ROCK.
A Gigantic Chip From the Side of one
of Maryland's Mountains.

| A Gigantic Chip From the Side of One
| of Marylands Mountains.
DR. Philip r. Uhler, provost of the
| Peabody Institute. is much interested
| in a plan to have the farmers and 9TH
er residents in the neighborhood OF
Bunea Vista Springs, washington
county combine and develop what DR..
Uhler declares to be one of the most
wonderful natural objects anywhere in
this country. This is Raven Rock,
high, castellated fragment of rock
which rears it's head hundreds of feet
in the air. appearing just like great
medieval castle in one of the Euro
pean countries. The rock is now over
grown with trees and underbrush, so
that it is hard to get good idea OF It's
remarkable structure, and DR.. Uhlers
idea is to have the farmers and resi-
dents clear the vegetation away, when
the rock would stand out clear and
bold and would be one of the sights of
the Atlantic seaboard.
Raven Rock is so called because in
former years a great number of ravens
had their nests on its summit. Not
many of the birds remain now, but the
name still clings to the rock 1t is
fragment of what in earlier ages wass
a mighty mountain pass, but which Is
now broken into number of masses.
There We're great outlying ridges which
were connected with Mount Quirauk,
and Raven Rock was rent away from
one of the ridges by some great con-
vulsion of nature. 1t is now more than
half mile from what was originally
the other part of the mass.
Raven Rock rises like a great ru-
ined CASTLE" said DR.. Uliler, yesterday,
beside the road to Hagerstown, ex-
tending along the line of the road for
700 feet 1t is constituted of Pottsdam
sandstone, which is everything rock of
that region and which has been crack
ed apart in a singularly symmetrical
manner 1t gives the effect of a. per-
pendicular wall of rock rising hundreds
of feet above the present level of the
ravine which bounds the opposite side
of the road. Being so completely COW
cred with trees, it can only be seen by
going some distance down the road to
point where only one end is visible.
1.-THE upper part of the rock is crag-
gy, and can be assembled by path
which leads off to the right, 300 or 400
feet to the east. 1t is possible to as
cend it by crawling right UP the rock,
but it is an awful climb. The rock is
wonderful thing. l have been all over
the country and seen the natural Won
ders that people travel hundreds and
thousands of miles to see. but I have
never seen anything like Raven Rock
at least, in this part Of the world
The rock is on a part Of the property
which belongs to Joseph Brown, a we'll
to-do farmer of the section. There are
about ten acres of vegetation which
obscure the beauty Of the view, but if
they were cut away the rock would
stand boldly out and be a sight worth
going far to see.-Baltimore American.
