REVEALING OLD NEW YORK
Excavation in Beaver st. Brings
Interesting Relics to Light.

Excavation along the north side or
Beayer street. between New and Broad
streets. FOR water pipes has brought 20
light interesting traces Of old New YORK
The old wooden water pipes OF bygone
age are readily recognized by the wayfarer,
but the trained eye Of the Archaeological can
sec more in dirt that is thrown up by
the trench diggers
The experts Of the American Scenic and
Historic Preservation Society, who called
attention to these signs" yesterday, make
i a practice to scrutinze the earth thrown
up in excavations in different parts OF the
city and often run across interesting traces
OF aud lang syne. In the Beaver street
excavations they find oyster and clam
shells. meat bones, pipe stems with pc
Cular markings and other interesting rellcS
suggesting the primitive days when there
was no street cleaning department for the
removal OF garbage and when. according
IN that yeracious chronicler Diedrich
Knickerbocker. Director General hiett-
william the Testy-was fumigated by rate
Dutchmen for trying to prevent their ma
tional pastme Of smoking.
The secretary OF the Scenic Society, com
menting on these evidences of old New
York. said yesterday that Beaver street
had an interesting history. The Dukes
plan" Of the city OF New York at The time
Of its capture from the Dutch shows a
creek or inlet Of the old Broad street canal
extending up into Beaver street toward
Broadway. In primitive times this was the
haunt OF that industrious and Intelligent
animal, the beaver. which contributed SO
much to the commerce OF New York that
its memory is grateful perpetuated in the
city seal Hence the name Beaver street.
But the street has had many names. The
Dutch spelled beaver "beyer.' and they
called IL the Bever Graft meaning Beaver
Canal: Prins Graft or Princes Canal, and
Eever Paatje, which was later AngliCized
To Beaver Path. 1t was also called Beaver
Ditch. the Companys Valley, Beaver Lane
and Merchant street
Beaver street, east OF Broad. had other
early names. 7 lat portion from william
street to Hanover street. together with that
part Of Hanover street to Hanover square
extends over what was once wet depres-
sion drained by a ditch. or "sIoot as It
was called by the Dutch. This gave the
name Of Drain Ditch and the wrongly
spelled name Of Sloat Lane to "A lane which
existed there as late as 1871, and perhaps
later II was also called the Soat or Slote
Sloat street and Sloat Street Lane.
In 1859 the street from Broad TO Broad
way was named Beaver street, and the por-
ton west of Broadway was named Princes
street. In 1870 the whole was named
Beaver street.

which would be at the rate of $3i6 81 a
square foot. That remained the top notch
price square foot for land I'm this city

erty. at No | Wall street. changed hands

lshed was about 1854 a square foot.
Henry p. Dawson. one Of the Morgan

In fact. Smith. Gray g. co. believe that
they have actually talked inexpensive

their higher class garments have been al
most ignored in their advertising To
remedy this neglect they have inauguratcd

The sale will continue until Wednesday

others at 7 and I go o'clock and lew as

fostered by the Evangelistlc Committee

conduct CT the services. 1t is reported that
the most successful in point Of numbers at
tending are the Old First and the Scotch
Presbyterian. with nearly as great successes
in the Grace Methodist and the Harlem
Presbyterian. These services are aimed
chiefly TO reach the non-religious elements
No fewer than thlrty-two services In Eng

In New York and throughout America re-
llgious affairs are dull beyond any season In
many wears. Never were 30 many New

nerfunctory ways. Almost nothing at all is
planned out OF the ordinary. In national
way there will be no large conventions De-
fore the end Of the year. In Europe relg'
