Russians Wrecked Railroads.

The gauge Of the Russian railroads
Is about one foot wider than that Of
the German railroads. Hence the Rus
slams during their retreat after the
battle of Tannenberg believed that the
Germans would be unable to use their
narrower gauge locomotives and cars
on the Russian lines. The Germans,
however, moved one of the rails a
foot inside it's former position. At the
same time, they r;:!ned the track for
Russian use by saving off the ties
Just outside the shifted rails. The
Russians came back, and on their next
retreat exploded a cartridge at each
rail joint, smashing the joint and bend
ing in the abutting rail ends so that
cars could not pass. This involved
for the Germans the huge task OF
bringing up new steel and relaying the
entire track. The job was completed

cOOPERS AT HOME
Town on 0tsego Lake Bears
Family Name of Novelist.
Here the Noted Writer Gained In.
SEPARATION to Execute Works That
#.H Brought Him Fame.

With the arrival of solitary horse
man at the shores of Otsego lake in
New York begins the history of Coop
erstown. He was William Cooper, Of
a Buckinghamshire family that came
to America from England in 1779, and
he founded the town which bears his
name. Leaving his home in Pennsyl-
vania in 1855, at the age of thirty-one,
he investigated the region round about
Otsego lake with the intention Of
founding there a home for himself
and village for others. In January,
1906, he took possession, in associa-
ton with Andrew Craig, of a large
tract Of 29,35O acres, soon afterward
buying out his partners share and
becoming sole owner. Settlers began
to arrive, and in 1883, Cooper erected
home for himself. It stood on Main
street, where is now the entrance to
the beautiful and extensive Cooper
estate.
This William Cooper was the father
Of James Fenimore Cooper, who in his
transfer to his new home at the age
Of thirteen months was the impassive
witness Of an amusing family differ
! ence. It seems that when William
Cooper had completed arrangements
for the transfer of his family from
Burlington, N. j., to Cooperstown, his
wife positively refused to go. She
remembered the wilderness which she
had visited three years before and she
| preferred the we'll established society
and congenial friends Of her old home
to the discomforts of pioneer settle
ment. The conveyance was ready and
waiting, her husband urged her to give
in, but she sat firmly in a. chair in
| the library of her Burlington home
and refused to bulge.
The circumstances Of this family
disagreement are pleasantly narrated
by Rev. Ralph Birdsall, rector Of
Christ church, says the Boston Tran
script, in his delightful little volume
which he calls ''The Story Of Coopers-
town." If Mrs. Cooper was strong
minded woman, Mr.. Cooper was no
less strong-minded man. "He seized
the chair" says MIR. Birdsall, with
| HIS VILE III IL, dAG puttAAS ucA dOonA "a
the wagon, chair and all, began the
long journey to Otsego. Thus Will
liam Cooper carried his point, while
his wife carried hers. for she Travelled
the whole distance in the chair from
which she vowed she would not move.
The chair itself, sacred to the men,
DRY of two strong minds, is still in use
in the Cooper family"
This change Of home doubtless
shaped, if it did not alter, the life Of
James Fenimore Cooper. All his first
impressions, he said long afterward,
were obtained in the Otsego region.
It is to be doubted whether Fenimore
Cooper would have gained such wide
celebrity as a novelist if he had not
discovered the unique field of romance
which the lake and hills of Otsego
began to open to his vision. Had Feni-
more Cooper remained in Burlington
he might have written good novels,
but not 'The Leather Stocking Tales"
