It takes 100000 horses TO move these
wheels. within a radius OF twelve
miles there are 500 miles OF railway
running through 700 stations, and be
tween morning and night the trains
running over these carry 100000 pas

oil twenty times as far as the trains
every day and carry more passengers,
for though the latter travel $4,000
miles every twenty-four hours the
street carriages daily accomplish a
journey equal TO twenty times the
circumference OF the globe. The
buses and trans move 100000 pas

last week workmen began tearing
down the old De LAncey house, on
Heathcote Hill, near Mamaroneck, N.
Y. The property had boen sold in
partition proceedings, and had passed
out Of the possession Of the last OF
the DE Lancey heirs.
The house was built in 1892 on
high knoll overlooking the inlet, and
on the site OF a brick house erected in
1897 and burned Just before the Revo-
lutionary war. The original house,
known as Heathcote Manor, was oc-
cupied by Col william Heathcote, an
early settler and slave owner. The
house was nearly surrounded. II Is
said, by the quarters occupied by Col.
Heathcote's slaves. After the death
Lancey, one OF the heirs, bought the
interests OF his cousins. De Lancey
had been captain in the British
army, but in 1889 he resigned his COM
mission and went TO Mamaroneck.
He erected the house now being de-
molished, and lived there with his
family until his death.

In one OF the earlier visits OF James
Cooper, afterward the FIRST great Am
erlcan novelist, to whose original
name Fenimore was added by act Of
legislature when he was thirty-seven
years old. to Westchester county. he
became acquainted with Susan. John
Peter De Lancey's second daughter,
and the friendship soon ripened into
a more tender regard. Cooper sooa
became frequent visitor to the De
Lancey homestead, and on New
Years day. 1911. was married TO the
young woman OF his choice, probably
in the house now being destroyed.
Nobody in Mamaroneck is positive
that Cooper was married In the house.
but his blographers have no cause to
doubt that the wedding was celebpt-
ed at the home OF his bride. The fact
that many OF cooper's friends and
admirers deprecated his marriage into
Tory family seems consistent with
the belief that he was wed in Mr.. De
Iancey's house. There seems to be
ample reason for believing that the
old parlor was the scene Of his mar
riage, as well as OF his courtship.
Tho demolition OF the De Lancey
house leaves only one monument OF
the eighteenth century in the Vicinity
OF Mamaroneck Almost directly
across the Boston Post Road from the
De Lancey house is the massive stone
chimney OF the Dlsbrow house, built
in 1877 and burned only a few years
ago. This chimney is carefully pre-
served by the owner OF the land on
which II stands, and may last an age
on account OF Its solid construction
and broad base. unless vandal hand
