and Halsey and Fulton SITS. This section, half
century ago. known as the Bedford Four
Corners" It rural district. made up of
farms and country stores. William Payne,
decorator. who came 10 this country from Eng
land. moved to this district in 1865. 1t is said
that the site of the little old farmhouse, which
became the Payne homestead. was originally
occupied by chapel OF tho Bedford Dutch Re-
formed Church. The house was somewhat en-
iarged. but retained all its old fashioned char
acteristics including a wing known as the
wash house." which was provided with big

The Kings County Republican Club has grown
from humble beginnings Originally 1t was tne
Seventh Election District Republican Club OF the
T,wenty-fifth Ward Organized by Dick Bennett
the right hand man of Naval Officer Sharkey, IN
1896 it grew rapidly, taking in members from
ali parts of the ward, until the name was
changed to the Twenty-fifth Ward Republican
Club. Gradually it grew beyond the confines OF
Quarters of the 10th Assembly District. Naval
officer Sharkey made his Office there, and then
the name of the organization was changed to
the Sixteenth Assembly District Republican
Club.
AS the fame of the club spread, applications
for mem bership were received from all over the
county and when the organization was in
corporated It was called the Kings County Re-
publican Club. The present officers are: Charles
+ Weber president; Samuel Dunlap, first vice.

were among the most famous anywhere about
Brooklyn. It is stated that some Of the pears
raised by Mr. Payne weighed a pound and a
quarter. The property originally belonged to
the Lefferts family The family burial ground
is said to have been somewhere in the vicinity
of the site of the Payne homestead, and 1t is
thought not unlikely that some traces of the
old graves may be found in digging the founda-
tions for the four-story apartment house. The
homestead fitted up with many interesting
old relics, which have now been scattered. Mrs.
Jennie A. Whitney, Of the five surviving
children of Mr.. Payne, who now lives at No. 1
Spencer Place. removed the old mahogany stair
case, the brass door knobs and some Of the other
quaint furnishings from the Ealsey-st- house

tells interesting stories about the dances
in the big red barn and the fruit festivals. In
which all the children of the district particf-
pated. It is said that at one Of the celebrations
an ear of corn, which closely resembled a human
hand, discovered. 1t was preserved In

HEADQUARTERS at the clubhouse. Alderman John
wirth the present leader, was invited to make
his headquarters there, but felt unable TO DO so
because he was president Of the Lew T. Morton

Last fall the club held three mass meetings, one
of which was In the interest of the war veterans.

KINGS COUNTY CLUB COLONIAL MANSION
The new home Of the Kings County Repub-
lcan Club is the roomy old mansion surrounded
by a lawn at No 1o3S Greene-ave., which was
formerly owned by Colonel Briggs. It takes the
place Of the old quarters at No 666 Macon-sta
which had been occupied for seven years. The
house. which is large and roomy, IS three
story frame structure of Colonial architecture.
It is 40 feet wide and 55 feet In depth. The lot
is so by 100 feet, giving ample room for garden
parties and other outdoor festivities. The prop
erty was secured by Naval Officer Robert A.
sharkey and Charles J. Weber. president OF the
club, for $4,000, and at that price Il is consid-
cred bargain.
The feature Of the house which appeals most
strongly 70 the members at this season OF the
year, with the exception Of the lawns is the
12-foot piazza IN front. Through the middle of
the house runs 10-foot hall, with conlnodious
parlors either side. One of these has heen
set aside for meeting purposes and the other is
being divided up Here viii be the cafe @

In connection with those bereft of some Of

Increased power of some of the other faculties, a
man who lives near the Industrial Home for the
Blind, at No. $40 Gates-ave, tells many instances
of the wonderful ability the blind men have in
moving around in spite of their afhction. He
had often watched them coming down Gates
ave. alone and turning exactly into the narrow
gateway of the home without the slightest un-
certainty hesitation. They would do this
without the use of cane assistance by feel
ing the fence. One day he asked one of the
inmates how It was possible for him to tell
when he got exactly in front of the gate.
why, you see. there is a depression in the
sidewalk just at that point, and we can feel it
when we get to the gate" was the reply.
Curious to see this depression that served to
gui7e the feet of the blind, the man carefully
examined the sidewalk at that point. He de-
clared that he unable to see how the walk
in front of the gate differed from any other
point of the tagging. The sense of "feer' of
