William Waldorf Astor is maintaining
his reputation as selfish, surly man.
His neighbors of Cliyeden consider him
the meanest person who ever inhabited
that historic mansion. Now he is earn
ing similar condemnation from the peo-
pie of Hever, the Kentish village that
is the seat OF Heyer castle, which Mr..
Astor has purchased and restored. BY
right of ancient usage the people of the
village had a pathway across the castle
park. This Mr.. Astor tried 10 take
away from them, but he was enjoined by
the courts. Instead of gracefully ac-
cepting his defeat, he has caused tall
brick walls to be built on each side
of the path so that wayfarers shall not
enjoy the view of his grounds. 1t is a
despicable revenge. The only detriment
TO America due TO the self-eypatriation
OF William Waldorf Astor is that he
spends his money abroad.

A writer in the New York Herald cites
the remark of Hiram Maxim, the in
ventor, that his mechanism TO make guns
noiseless win be utilized only by sports
men, and declares against the Innovation
as new danger not only to game but
also to law-abiding sportsmen. He says
owners of noiseless guns will be able TO
make forays upon birds and animals, and
game wardens will not be able to locate
them by sound. This win tend to make
the pot-hunter careless and increase the
dangers of the woods for the true sports
man. There is ground for alarm at the
prospect Of noiseless guns for sportsmen,
and it may become necessary to legislate
against the contriyance, as has been done
in many instances against the noiseless
air-gun.

battleship feet could not produce more
than fifty out of five hundred who could
meet a request for the singing of the
Star Spangled Banner, somebody writes
to the New York Herald and demands
that in the future all enlisted men be
taught to sing the national hymn. This
patriot overlooks the fact that men are
enlisted for fighting and not for sing
ing. Opera troupes would make poor
material for the manning of battleships

Development of steamship enterprise
between New York and Galveston has
shown that the water route is so much
cheaper than the land routes for freight
that Ohio shippers find it profitable to
send their consignments east to New
York, and transship them at that port
for the Texas metropolis. This is what
might have been expected. The rail lines
can never compete with water routes on
which the larger class of tonnage can be
used at its full capacity, and the saving
on the hauls as against land carriage is
sufficient to enable the shippers to pay
rail rates to the seaports from compare
lively long distances inland, in order to
take advantage of the longer but cheap
err way around the gulf.
