TO CLAIM MUCH HARLEM LAND.
Descendants of Original Grantees to Take
Steps to Recover It.

The descendants of the twenty-three men who
comprised the corporation known as the Town of
New Harlem will soon hold a meeting in this city
and take steps toward recovering certain lands
which are either unoccuped or in the possession
of alleged unlawful occupants
A circular was sent yesterday to all the known
descendants of those who composed the corpora
ton After telling of the original grant of land
the circular in describing the lands in the town
of Harlem, says:
IAN lands on Manhattan Island. east and north
of the line between New-York and Harlem, and
certain other lands outside Of said island, were
given granted and conveyed by said patents to
the twentythree grantees, ana to their heirs. sue
cessors and assigns forever"
About two years ago Henry Pennington Toier
of the banking firm OF Toler & Higgins No 7
WaII-st undertook to trace the living descendants
of the original grantees; TO secure proof Of the
location extent and present condition OF the lands
and properties. and tie determine the legal methods
for the recovery said rights and properties. Mr.
ToIer now announces that his work is completed
and that his efforts have been successfully carried
on without the aid of the Harlem records which
several years ago taken from the New ork
City archives.

A Clever French Captive.

4 person who was supposed to be the
French General Mouton, count de Lo-
bau, was once captured by an English
vessel, but after time the captain dis
covered that his prisoner was the
Count de Montrond. "Why did you de-
ceive me-" he demanded angrily Of the
count. II did not deceive you" replied
Montrond; mot at all. You thought
was General Mouton. You told me so.
You have fifty gun frigate. Was 1t
for me, who have only pocket pistol,
to contradict your
The captain did not forgive Montrond
and took every opportunity to treat
him rudely. One evening at dinner
some one proposed the health of the
French. AS Montrond rose to acknowl-
edge it the captain cried: "They are all
towards, make no exceptions
When Montrond's turn came he gave
this sentiment: ''The English-they are
all gentlemen. but make exceptions"

High and Worthy Ends.

These high and precious and holy
gifts of God should be used for an end
correspcndingly high and worthy and
holy. Such d high and worthy end is
not. difficult to find or to realize. 1t is
not necessary TO go out Of our way in
quest Of sotbsthlng remarkable, unfa-
Nhiliar or eXtravdgant. This high and
worthy end is secured in the lives Of
thousands of men and women who are
enga ged in the plainest and most or
binary routine of duties, duties Of the
home. duties of the farm. duties Of the
workshop or duties of the SchOOlrOOm.
The only Indispensable condition for
attaining to such an end is that Of
having q spirit of genuine love to God
and love to man. Il spirit of consccra-
ton. obedience and unScltish service
in one word. the spirit of the Lord Ic-
suS Christ. Such spirit when prop
erly possessed and applied will certain
" elevate our lives to that which is
truly high and direct them to that
which is noble and worthy. And the
end. the result OF such 4 life. will be
the manifestation and enjoyment Of
the glory of God. the establishment OF
His kingdom. the triumph of the true
and right and good and the salvation
and spiritual welfare Of SOuls.-ChriS-

topic For the Week Beginning July
I'D, "Strong Men and Strong Wo-
men the Nations Hope"
Text, Elk. xviii, IL; Deut.
xvi, IS, Eph. vi, 1918.

BE strong in the Lord"
There is no premium in this world
on weakness. Even though the bat
tie may not always be to the strong,
as the Bible declares it is not, 1t Is
not weakness which gives the victory.
The helpless may appeal to our sympa-
thy and draw out the traits of tender
hess and compassion, but the haru'
stern work of the world demands
strength, endurance and courage. IL
nudity may not be crime, but 1t may
at times bring as serious disaster as
treachery. There arise occasions when
heroic endurance Of suffering, priVa-
ton and hard toll is needful. Cold,
fatigue, hunger and long continued Ia
Dor must be endured times beyond
number by the workers in hundred
different fields Of effort. Heat, eX-
haustion, strain Of muscle, brain anu
soul are the purchase price Of many OF
the luxuries and even ordinary COM
forts Of everyday life in civilized lands
In affairs Of the nation heroic en-
deavor is in constant demand. Alert
ness, integrity, ability to discern the
right and equitable measures in legis-
lation are needed in all our assemblies.
The power to say no or yes and stick
to it when right demands sometimes
requires a soul and body OF great
strength. The pressure brought to
bear on one in official position Is I'M
realized and unrealizable by those who
have not felt its touch. 1t takes strong
men and women Of moral fiber and
keen sense to stand against 1t.
The rush and high speed Of much or
the work Of the present time require
strong muscles and nerves to avoid col
lapse. The strain which a slight In
crease in the speed Of railway train
puts on track and rolling stock Is often
serious. The same is true Of men. A
| man who can endure certain WORE
breaks completely under a slight in
crease. Nerves and muscles are over
taxed. Under certain responsibilities
men will pass years Of faithful service
and then go all to pieces under g
new or ocusual charge. Influences tc
-hicb one mr. become accustomed
make slight impress~n' Out uh un
usual oi<*er, solicitation or pr~> -"
overthrow in an instant all the de-
lenses and ruin the work Of lifetime
The hope Of the nation, of all ma
tons, lies in manhood and womanhoo,
strong in reverence for God ami right
strong of intellect, body and soul. -,
