BUYING A LARGE ESTATE

Several Capitalists Are Now Engaged in
That Occupation.
The starting of a new great country
estate is always a matter of interest,
says Harper's Weekly. The tendency
in rich city men toward that sort of en-
largement is of recent growth, and it
is natural that there should be ex-
amples of it in increasing numbers
near New York. E. H. Hartman, rail-
way giant-the same enterprising man
who carried a ship load of scientists to
Alaska in 1899-has bought himself
q 1000 acres of land in Orange and
Rockland counties, New York, to the
west and north of Tuxedo and edging
over toward Goshen. Orange county is
still famous for it's butter and Mr..
Hartman doubtless intends to keep a
COW. His further intentions have not
as yet transpired except as shown by
considerable investments in roads.
Much of the fun in owning a farm two
miles square lies doubtless in planning
what to do withit. Nj. Carnegie, whose
commodious dwelling on upper Fifth
avenue is already the biggest house in
town, is building himself another in
Westchester county near the st. An
drew's golf links, but has O yet given
evidence of an acute attack of land
hunger. Mr.. Whitney has 1000 acres
on Long Island, nearly twice as many
on October mountain and a big tract
in the North woods, and there are
many other estates of from 500 to 5000
acres on Long island and heal the
Hudson. DR.. Webb has elbow room at
Shelbourne and leg room in the Adj
rondacks, but the greatest and most in
teresting of American estates seems
still to be Mr.. V~anderbilt's Biltmore in
North Carolina. There will be great
sights in architecture, horticulture, ag-
riculture, Horticulture and all the allied
industries and arts to be seen in his
country fifty years from now if the
steel business and railroad business
continue to flourish and government
continues stable.

FRUIT VALUABLE AS GOD.

Certain Acid Salts They Contain Benefit
the Human System.
The acids mostly found in fruit are
malic, tartaric and citric acids, COM
bined with potash or soda, so as to
form acid salts. Malic acid predomin-
ates in apples. tartaric in grapes and
citric acids in lemons, oranges and
grape fruit. The ash of fruit is rich
In potash, lime, magnesia and iron.
The agreeable ron of fruit like
oranges, strawberries and other fruit
n others. All fruits contain more or
less pectin cellulose and an insoluble
substances called pectose, which, by
action of a ferment in the plant itself,
is converted in the process of ~ripening
into pectin, which forms the main
constituent of fruit jelly. Fruits are
laxative, diuretic and refrigerant. The
nutritive value of any fruit depends
chiefly upon the starches and sugar
which it contains. Dates, plantains,
bananas, prunes, figs and grapes con-
tain the most starch and sugar, and
therefore are the most nutritious foods.
Cherries, apples, currants, strawberries
and grapes contain considerable veg
etable acid, making them valuable as
blood purifiers. Lemons, lines, grape
fruit possess about the same general
properties; they contain a great deal
OF potash and other salts and abundant
vegetable acids. They are beneficial in

MANY BIRDS THIS SEASON.

Some interesting statements were made at the meeting of the Connecti- cut Audubon society, held at Stam- ford recently, regarding the birds of the state. Until the Audubon society was organized few years ago noth- ing was done to preserve the song birds in Connecticut, and some varie- ties that formerly were numerous had nearly disappeared, the chief cause be- ing their destruction for ornamenting bonnets and hats. Through the ef- forts of the society the law passed by the legislature for the protection of the birds has been strictly enforced, and this spring the woods and fields resound with the notes of the many birds that have returned.
 It is said by observing persons that they have not known in years so many birds in Connecticut. In February tue bluebirds appeared in unusual num- bers, followed soon after by robins that came in hoeks. Last week the brown thrushes, the wrens and the brilliant scarlet tanagers came, and much to the delight of the farmers, the kingbird. The beautiful Baltimore orioles arrived on the Sth of May. The tiller of the soil will not find it necessary to watch his young chickens now to prevent expectations of hawks, for these visitors make them selves scarce when the kingbird comes The farmers say that the coming of the birds in such numbers is of incal- culable benefit to them. They will eat the worms and insects in their orchards and gardens that have since the destruction of the birds began been continual menace to growing crops.

GREAT DAY IN LIFE OF A COLT.

There was an exciting chase of a colt by train on the New York division of the Erie railroad Monday. At White Bridge colt ran upon the track ahead of west-bound freight train, in charge of Conductor Nicholas Walsh and Timothy Leahy. The animal kept be- tween the rails for a distance of ten miles, increasing it's speed whenever the speed of the engine was increased The engineer whistled and rang the bell, but this only made the horse run the faster. He was compelled to re- verse the lever several times to prevent running down the colt. All efforts to frighten the colt off the track failed. The train finally stopped at signal tower, and word was sent to the opera tor in the next tower to stop the colt. When he heard the noise of the ap- preaching train he waved lantern before the animal and succeeded in stopping it. The fireman cut the bell rope, tied it around the colts neck, and fastened it to a fence beside the track. The animal was dripping with precipitation and badly frightened. Dur ing the chase a passenger train ap- preached on the next track, but the colt kept straight ahead.--New York Times.

 In view of the decision of the su- preme court in the Porto Rican cases somebody ought to start a movement at once for the annexation of Canada. It is now, under the dictum of the court, perfectly feasible to annex Can ada and still to collect duties on every thing which the Canadians send across the border. It will also be possible to govern the Canadians without giving them any representatives ip our con gress at Washington. The idea of Canadian annexation should be much more popular than it has been hereto fore.-Hartford Times
 A New York man has asked for an injunction against building a nurses home near his premises, declaring such an institution to be offensive. It seems to us that it all depends on the kind of nurses that inhabit the home. If they are drinkers and brawlers, the home would be nuisance; if they are of the kind that wear neat white caps and frilled aprons, that speak in a gentle voice, that have the still tread, the soft touch and the pleasant man. ner that many sick-room knows, why, nurses of that kind are an ornament to any neighborhood.

have ordered out the fimsy French in- candescent plant, to be replaced by the more reliable up-to-date American sys- tenn. Even the Franco alliance does not guarantee favoritism. Only re- gently, the city of Odessa gave an American firm an order for the piping for the construction of her sewerage system. The English, following the example of the Germans, have gone about the work of securing Russian or ders in businesslike way. They pub fish a Russian business paper at Mos COW, and give purchasers six months or year in which to settle their bills. American business men seen content to rely on the exertions of the various consular agents, for 1t is only through the influence of their minister at St Petersburg that any progress has been made towards holding the proposed machinery exhibit in St Petersburg next summer, and now that the llken- hood of an international exposition at St Petersburg in 1904 grows, the two may be merged. With the exception of France, other foreign nations seem to have overlooked the importance of Russian fairs, especially that of NiJnl Noygorod, as means of introducing what they have to sell. At Mini Nov gorod more than $40,000,oO0 change hands annually; here the starosta, or chief of the village artel, comes to buy the supply of raw material on which the mujiks will work during the long winter days. Tons of iron, boilers, and various kinds of machinery are sold here; turning lathes, and such ma chinery as the peasants can use in common, are in demand; machinery for cutting shingles, axe handles ana wood turning tools would find a ready sale; but the Russian insists upon see ing a piece of machinery work before he will purchase

Manufacturers all over the country are realizing the justice of the de mands made by the machinists and are granting their requests Hartford and New Haven employers have fallen into line and asked their men to return. Waterbury manufacturers are still hold ing out, and in the meantime many of the city's best workmen are going else where for work. The strike has been in progress ten days and already mer- chants and business men generally have felt it's effects. The local manu- facturers should be as good as their neighbors; they should be willing to accord the same rights to their work men, and they should beware of a long drawn out strike, for it will take years to recover. from it. Come together, gentlemen. If the manufacturers and strikers cannot come together. the Democrat would suggest that some of our townsmen interest themselves in the matter. They have done so in other places with good results. Per haps if the Rev W. J. Slocum or the Rev J. G. Davenport would take this question up with the parties interested they might be able to act as an arbi tration board. If the gentlemen men, tioned have not the time or inclination there may be others as deeply interest ed who would act as mediators. The Democrat offers this as a suggestion and only mentions the names above because from the utterances of these men on the subject it believes they have given the strike question careful consideration and would act for the best interests of all concerned and for the people in general.

Speaking of the inventor of the mon- itor, writer in the June issue of the New England Engineering Magazine says that "Captain Ericsson had his friends and his foes, as all mankind have; the former-when loyal-he re- warded richly, but for the latter, he simply defied them for all time. I do not care what you do, sir,' he said in my presence to one who opposed him; I live for the truth, sir, and will have what is right or nothing"; and he struck his fist down on heavy rose wood table with such force that large >cut-glass inkstand jumped up about six inches. At subsequent in- teryiew I had with him, in connection with the Monitor, Captain Ericsson came into the room in the stormiest of humors. Where you sit now, sir he said, "a damn rascal tried to make me pay hush money; he said he was the son of a clergyman, was a reporter upon the New York , and knowing that a leader was about to be published un- favorable to the monitors, he thought it best to show me a proof; his prin- ciples would not allow him to take what he considered an unfair adyan- tage of his position.

Get out of my house at once, sir! will not have such a rascal as you are in my presencer' There is no doubt but that the order was obeyed."
