 THREE OLD BOYS ON AN OUTING.
 The train which reaches Gaylords- vile about 11.30 a. m. had among it's passengers, Monday, three of the fa- nous Hungerford brothers, noted for their sobriety and general good quail ties. It was very evident they had been away for a picnic, the clam chOwder, picnic spirit being very evident in their carriage. It appears they had been seeing the white ele phant in New Haven at Savin Rock They spent their time riding on the trolley and had their pOcketboOkS not been deep would have all been plunged 1 into bankruptcy. When not riding on the trolley it is suspected they sat on the dock and bathed their feet in the limpid waters of Long Island sound. Altogether it was very large and profitable time for these model gentle men. They were the guests of James Herrick, son of ParSon Herrick of Gu ban fame, who entertained them right royalty, and showed them all the sights The gentlemen in question were Hon G. G. Hungerford, ex-representative and rattling good farmer, Hon M. l.. Hungerford, an eX-tObacco packer, horse raiser and successful man of af. fairs, and Hon L. w. Hungerford o1 Mabbettsville, N. Y., who looks enough like the other two to be theil brother and is successful and hustline business man. It is no wonder in view of these facts that the station master uncovered when they got off the trair and that the tree toadS and robins sci up concert. It is not intended to in fer that they imbibed anything strong while they were away, as they are al temperate in what they eat and drink and can always give good account o1 themselves. Aside from all joking what this country needs is hundreds of men possessing the solid, sensible qualities of men like the Hungerfor6 brothers. And we would all live long CT and be happier, if like them, w dropped our cares once in while an( slipped away for an outing.

AN ARTIST AMONG US.

AN ARTIST AMONG US.
 Not many New Milford people know that the town has young man in her borders possessing talents of the Ham, ilton Gibson type, but such is the fact. The person in question is William W. Stilson and he has supplied more than 200 beautiful illustrations in color, in wash and in pen and ink in Willard Nelson Clute's new book, "Our Ferns Tn their Haunts," and these have been engraved with the utmost care. MT Stilson has drawn nearly all of his illustrations directly from the living plants, and he and the author have made special excursions to the haunts of the rarer species of our ferns. "Our Ferns" is the only work that treats exhaustively of the ferns. It's author. MT Clute, is the editor of the Fern Bulletin and formerly assistant cura- tor of the New York Botanical Garden. He has paid especial attention to the haunts, habits, uses, folklore, struc- ture, growth, abundance, distribution and varieties of the ferns, covering a greater range and including more spe- cies than are mentioned in any other rsimilar work. Every common or Eng fish name is given, together with the scientific names of both the old and thew" nomenclatures, with dis cussion of the origin and application of these names. It contains the only illustrated key to the families ever printed, and by the aid of this even a child can identify any species. MT Stilson is now doing special work for St Nicholas.

A LONG ISLAND NEGRO COLONY.
Plans for the establishment Of n Sub
Government All Their Own.

New York Sun: Rufus J.. Perry, a
colored lawyer Of Brooklyn, says that
plans are being a to assemble all
the negroes Of the United States under
"a sub-government of their own on
Long Island. Mr.. Perry said that $40
900 OF $45, 900 required TO carry out the
project was In hand, and hat the re-
mainder would be raised by a band Of
clergymen who Will be sent out on this
errand. He said further:
Negotiations are now under way for
the purchase Of from | 900 to 800 acres
OF and in the south central section OF
Long Island. We have an option on
this land at the rate OF 81 an acre. OF
course. AZ the colony grows, more land
win be required. But the requirement
OF additional land will be easy. The
whites now occupying much or the mid
ole part of Long Island will gradually
move to some other locality, and just
as fast as they clear out we will clear
in. In this way the colony Will expand
It's territory.
"AIl Afro-Americans will be invited
TO make a home in the new colony.
Not one cent VIII be required from
them. Money will be loaned out OF the
general treasury, when necessary, for
the construction OF small cottages, and
as u guarantee OF good faith, an insur-
ance policy on the borrowers life will
be required to be mad out In the name
Of the colony. or course, the Ian viii
be given away with certain r]estric-
lions. One of these specifies that un-
der no condition shall It's title ever
pass into the hands Of any member Of
the white race.
"A number OF manufacturing plants
will be erected out OF the general trca-
sury for the employment of the coli
onists. Churches, hotels and music
and dance halls will be set up in album
dance. There will be theaters, too, and
all the other things that go to make a
large settlement congenial."

"BRCAUsE LOVE HIM"
A Brief Chat with scnator Dopew's At
tractive FIanceo.

'ettiNo tAntt
Paris Gable; In the fourth floor of q
fashionable fiat I'm the Rue Galilec, with
the Arc de Triomphe on one side and the
Place des Etats Unis on the other, Miss
May Palmer, fiancee or Senator Depew,
received a correspondent.
"Divinely tall" Tennyson would call
her; he might even add queenly. A supple,
slight neck, arched nose; attractively
dark brown, flashing eyes, shapely head,
covered with a profusion OF nut brown
hair; a charmlnEly frank face: her car
riage the poetry of motion; her English
perfect I'm thought, form and ~pronuncia-
ton; her French similarly perfect-such is
a condensed, inadequate description of
Senator Depew's betrothed.
In reply to a series OF very direct ques-
lions Miss Palmer said:
II marry Senator Depew because | love
him.. Any girl would be proud of such an
intellectual, charming man. What diff
ference does disparity i'm age make when
intellect is always young? / have heard
Senator Depew speak in Paris upon pub
lie occasions,
Your intimation that have been the
occasion OF his frequent visits To Paris is
not fair, for he has his own relatives liv-
ing here. j have been the recipient OF
thousands Of congratulations. Don't you
think l am doing better by marrying "A
distinguished, thoroughbred American
than by tying myself 70 a tilted for
eigner?
II believe we are both very patriotic.
Though | have lived many years in Eu-
rope and nave studied mere, my heart is
in New York, where we shall reside.
Nothing is yet decided as to where we
shall be married, nor Is the date fixed,
further than by the vague expression.
this coming winter When Consul Gem
sral Gowdy called to congratulate me he
said:
- have known Mr.. Depew many
years, and, like you. | owe him.
