1t has practically been decided that
the Berlin mill i'll Farmingdale will b.
operated this summer. The Berlin Mills
Co. it is understood, has bought the
logs owned by J. Gray & Sons. whose
mill was burned a week after Il was
put in operation this spring. The Gray
firm would probably sawed its own
logs at the mill in Farmingdale if the
plant could have been leased or bought
at price upon which both sides could
have agreed. The mill has been idle for
two seasons and many people believed
that it would never be used again. If
present plans are carried out the mill
will probably be started within a short
time. and employment will be given to
q large crew.

NEW YORK AND LONDON.


Where Gotham Excels.
It is said Of London in praise OF
its greatness that
In London a child is born every
three minutes and death is re-
corded every FIVE minutes. The city
contains 400 railway stations, 5000
omnibuses, 1000 hansoms. 14.OOO
cabs and 1000 tramcars. Daily
100000 persons travel on under
ground railways.
Eleven railway bridges span the
Thames. Four thousand postmen de-
liver 100000 letters weekly,
walking distance equal to twice the
circumference OF the globe. There
are 10000 miles Of overhead tele-
graph wires, and the number OF tele-
graph messages received in London
in year is 6.00O,000
Ninety million gallons Of water are
consumed daily. The railways, omni-
buses, cabs and steamboats, convey
1928, GOO, 900 passengers yearly and
the underground railway 263,000,-
900 passengers.
The 11S square miles of London
are lighted by 4974 electric arc
lights, 11S5 electric incandescent
lights, Sc 900 incandescent gas lamps
and 1S,24S fiat fame gas burners.
Well, New York can do something
in the same lines of municipal great
ness.
With a smaller number Of inhabi
tants than London it exceeds it in the
volume of travel. in the amount paid
for work, in the volume Of work
done and in the increase in the num-
ber of buildings, occupants of build
ing and of population.

000 gallons OF water a day. New
York consumes 500,O00,00O. Where
London has an area of 11S square
miles, New York has 326
In New York every minute two
immigrants arrive-more than a
million in year. Every six minutes
child is born. Every seven minutes
there is a funeral. Every hour a
new building is erected.
New York has more children at its
| public schools than London; fewer
paupers; lower death rate; fewer
uninhabited houses; more parks,
more bridges. fewer iails, a better
distributed street traffic and a higher
standard Of health.
New York's subway carries more
passengers in a day than London's
underground. The number of
crimes of violence is twice as large
in London as in New York. and the
number of arrests for drunkenness in
London is four times as great as the
number of arrests for the same cause
in New York.
New York has more fires in a year

On the subject Of troublesome cats
a correspondent believes he has made

my nights We're made restless by cat
squabbles One night they were hav-
ing a fearful battle, and as softly
opened the window by way Of prep
aratlon for opening fre on them a
little wooden pill box, used as a win
dow prop. tumbled down into the
yard. It made only the most triaing
noise, but the cats heard ii, and in a
moment they ceased their eaterwaul-
ing and quietly vanished in the dark
ness. The next night they came
again, and this time | deliberately
threw out the little pill box Again
they disappeared. Two other nights
used It in the same way, and now
the cats have altogether abandoned
the spot as meeting place. The
only possible explanation seems to be
the cats are alarmed by a simple or
stealthy noise. the origin Of which
mystifles them. My pill box has tri-

rack, saw that three Of the party
had been successful. One of them,
found, had never killed a stag be-
fore. and had therefore to be what is
in Scotland called 'blooded' This
ceremony was performed next day in
