Homewood has all the appearance Of being in
the country but at it's door is the Sixty-ninth-
st. station of the West End line of the Fifth
ave elevated road, and from that point it takes
thirty to forty minutes to reach the Manhattan
end of the Brooklyn Bridge.
In order to place the houses of this pretty sub
urban settlement within the reach of men who
have only a small capital laid aside, or who can
save regularly a small sum from the wages they
receive the corporation has made easy terms A
$4,000 house may be bought by paying about
S27 a month This payment includes the taxes
and the premium on a life insurance policy for
amount equal to the Indebtedness or the
owner after the first payment has been made.
One of the requirements of the builders OF these
homes is that the purchaser shall take out this

houses not only benefit TO the community,
but they are paying investments, and bring the
owners a larger revenue than the house boss
receives from his dissatisfied tenants.
The same corporation. whose model houses
have attracted much favorable notice and
whose success has induced other capitalists
to invest in tenement houses built on similar
and improved plans. has made suburban ex-
pertinent which should not be overlooked when
the subject of homes for people OF moderate
means is being considered. The difference be-
tween the houses in the city and those in the
suburbs is that the city houses built to rent,
while the suburban houses are built to sell. The

HOW THE BIG SEA TURTLE FEEDS.

HE TAKES A BIG BALL OF GRASS OUT To SEA
WITH HIM AND EATS WHILE SWIMMING.
Jacksonville (Fla.) correspondence of The Bal
timOre American.
With my gastronomic taste I naturally was
very curious to know just what kind of terrapn
are caught IN these waters, for the dish is ono
much sought after by epicures and forms part
of the menu OF every firSt-claSS hotel on tho
coast L was told that none caught about
here, but was invited to a sea turtle hunt Let
the reader imagine turtle weighing all the way
from LOO to 1.5OO pounds-and not long ago
one was turned over on the beach near Miami
that weighed more than Loco pounGS-Of course
am giving the largest weight for the aver
age weight Of those caught along the coast is
about 5OO pounds. After they are caught the
turtles are kept for long time their captors

The study of this monster shellfsh is a most
interesting one. In order To get rid OF the para
sites that cling to their shells they often enter
fresh-water streams TO enjoy a BATH but they
are extremely timd, and take fright at the least
noise The hunter knows. however. that the
turtle feeds in brackish streams where the tide
falls rather low and where the turtle grass
grows in greatest prOfuSiOn The turtles cut
great quantities OF this grass and then roll IL
into ball, cementing il as they roll it with the
clay in which the grass grows; and in this way.
when they have managed to amaSS a gOOdly
supply of provision they wait for high tide and
noat away seward. feeding they float The
professional hunters are quick to detect these
balls, and just the moment they do they set
their seines and send their peggers as the men
are called in search OF the feeding shoals. Men
are not the only enemies the turtles have how
tive to Florida destroy great numbers OF
them.

The little settlement received the name of
HomewOOd and has ceased to be an experiment
The houses range in size from six to eleven
rooms; they are all built on the cottage plan
and are valued at from s., 900 to $500 They
stand on plots of an average size of 40 by 100
feet. 1t was the intention of the architect to
produce a collection of houses to resemble an
English village, and in this he succeeded. Some
of the houses are all brick, some have the first
story of brick and the second of stuccO, and
some are all stucco. but there no frame
houses in the place. The roofs of slate,
making the houses externally freproof. No
effort has been made at expensive decorations

and the structures are singularly free from that
element known in modern architecture as gin
gerbread The upper sashes of the windows are
in most of the houses arranged for small old
fashioned panes. Many of the houses are built
so that beams show outside of the stucco; queer
little built over pOrches and as a
whole the houses look old fashioned, but home
like and pretty. There is nothing antique about
the interiors. The plumbing is of the newest
and most approved kind and there is abundance
of water from the city supply. The external
rustic effect is heightened by the California
privet hedges and the hOneysuckle and other
vines which surround the pretty cottages

state senate bill to make kidnapping
under certain conditions Punishable
by death. 1t provides for three
grades OF punishment: For simple
kidnapping. three to five years in the
penitentiary; forkidnaping and ex-
torting money, a life term in prison,
and for kidnapping and threatening
injury to the victim, hanging. Three
other bills bearing on kidnapping and
not greatly different in phraseology
were introduced.
Omaha. Jan 3.-Another letter,
prgted with lead pencil, was re-
ceived by e. A. Cudahy, demanding
the Withdrawal of the reward for the
kidnapers. The fact that the address
was printed in similar style TO the
former ones gave rise to the suspi-
cion that It was from the same
source. but Mr.. Cudahy stated that
he did not attach the slightest sig
nificance to it. He said it was of the
same class as several others that had
been received from various points,
except that it had been printed. The

the city's offer as well. under the pen
atty not only of trouble for the chill
dren. but the destruction of the en-
tire Cudahy family. The epistle closed
with an injunction to heed this
warming.
In spite of the two fortunes which
have been offered for the arrest and
conviction of the Cudahy kidnapers,
their secret Is still kept. Nothing in
the way of evidence to connect John
Grove with the kidnapping was pro.
duced when he was brought before
Police Judge Learn. No complaint
was filed against him, and he was
discharged without ceremony.
Previously at the city jail, Eddie
Cudahv declared that the voice of
John Grove bore no resemblance TO
the voice of his guard He said in
addition that Grove was not nearly
so stout as the man who had pointed
the revolver In his face and called
him Eddie Niece"
Equally bad fortune befell the po-
lice In their efforts to identify the
horse and buggy belonging to John
Grove Secret Service Agent Witten
stated positively that he saw Pat
Grove in st. Joseph. Mo-, the Friday
after the kidnapping. He did not
think he was one of the kidnapers.
