PEERAGE FOR A BROOKLYN BOY. Ashmead Bartlett Coutts and His Mar- riage to a Philanthropic Old Lady. From the New York World. Among the peers to be created by Queen ctorta before parliament meets again is a eo boy, born of American parents and descended on paternal and maternal side from the original Puritan settlers in this country. It is not for any great serv- ice to the state or to the English nation that he is about to be elevated to the house of lords and invested with the coronet and _ermine-barred scarlet mantle, but merely for having married a very philanthrépic elderly lady about half a century his s¢n.or. The prospective peer is William Lehman Ashinead Bartlett, who was transformed by license from the College of Heralds into William Lehman - Ashmead - Bartilett-Bur- dett-Coutts after his marriage with the venerable Baroness Burdett-Co its. He was born in Brooklyn of a father vho was reared at Plymouth, Mass., and \.as grad- uated from Amherst Colleze; and of a mother who was a daughter of John K. Ashmead of Philadelphia, and a descendant of Theodore Lehman, who was a compan:on of William Ponn. Young Bartlett and his brother Ellis were educated in England, and both were graduated from Oxford. Ellis, the elder of the two, has sat in par- lament for the last fifteen years, and dur- ing the previous Salisbury administration held one of the m:nor offices in connection with the admiralty. He has been left out in the cold on the present occas‘on, paruy to make way for Joseph Chamberlain’s son Austin, and partly in consequence of a do- mestic scandal in which he became in- volved. He has been consoled, however, with a knighthood, by virtue of which he is now Sir Ellis Bartlett. At the time when he was accorded this honor it was Like vise granted to Blundell Maple, the millionaire retail furniture dealer of that shabby-genteel district of Lordon known as Tottenham Court road. It is amusing to relate that each of the two new knights wrote a letter to Lord Salisbury protesting axainst the other man’s name being associated with his own as tending to diminish the value of the dignity. Nursed by the Baroness. William, the younger of the Bartlett brothers, shortly after leaving Oxford, ob- tained employment as a delegate of a com- mittee formed by the Dukes of Sutherland and ,Westmirster and the Baroness Bur- dett-Coutts for the relief of the sick and wounded during the Turkish war with Rus- On his return he fell danger- | ill from the effects of exposure and the hardships which he had undergone in’ the orient, was nursed back to health by the baroness, who came so infatuated with ber patient that she married him about sixteen years ago. He was then thirty. She is six years older than Queen Victoria. Instead of the husband making any set- tlement on the bride, as is usually the case, in this instance it was the reverse. Baron- ess Burdett-Coutts settled an annuity of $250,000 for life upon her young husband. It would be idle to deny that the match gave rise to much popular dissatisfaction and even dowrright hostility on the part of many of the friends énd relatives of the baroness. She is a daughter of Sir Francis Burdett, who played so conspicuous a part in his- tory during the early part of the present century, waile her mother was the daughter and heiress of Thomas Coutts, the banker, through wnom she has inherited the major Eertion of her vast property. She is on in- timate terms with many of the foreign royalties, and It is thanks to her interven- tion and ass'stance that the princes of the heuse of Orleans were able to save, after the revolution of 1848, much of their prop- erty, including the palace and estate of Chantilly, from confiscat‘on. It is cons‘dered likely that her husband on being created a peer will assume the title of Lord Latimer, that being one of the baronies which formerly belonged to his wife's fam‘ly. He himself has, since his Marriage, been an active co-worker in many of tfe philanthrop'c schemes of the baroness, and has done much to soften the animosity with which he was at first re- garded, and which led a man at a public meeting in which he had denounced M Gladstone as “nothing but an old womay to arse from h's seat and to remark, amid universal applause, that Mr. Ashmead-Bart- lett-Burdett-Coutts was about the very last person in the world who had either right or Treason to slur or Sneer at “an old woman.” ceo —___ Some Points in House Painti From Harper's Bazar. In frame houses there is, unluckily, an almost Infinite variety of colored paints. When one passes between the rows of small and cheaply ornamented frame houses which disfigure our suburbs and the many “parks” which run for miles be- side all our railroads, one could almost wish that paints had never been invented. Are our carpenters and contractors and the buyers of their wares all born color- bind that they can endure without suffer- ing the varied patches of hideous coloring that rush past our aching eyes? Red, blue, green, yellow, and sometimes all four, or even more, on one luckless house. But the fault is not altogether in the colors. A red house may be even beautiful if the tint be dark and soft, like that of the sumac berries, and half hidden in masses of green. But it is an affront to the eyes when spread over the boards of a high and much be-angled house broiling on a sand bank by 7n unfinished roadway, with- out even a bush to shelter It. ~The once much derided white house with green b'inds seems now to be regaining favor, and It has at least the advantage of making no pretensions to aught but neat- ness, cheer and comfort. With plenty of green about it, it also is even beautiful. Besides the white and the deep soft red in suitable situations, there is a good combin- aticn of cream color (real cream, not made with chrome yellow, but by mixing a little yellow ochre with a good deal of white lead) with white trimmings, and there are a few tints of gray or brown which may be used to advantage, but only in two or at most in three shades, and always of the same color, using the lightest for the body of the house and the darker for trimmings and window blinds. All at- tempts at striping or paneling are odious. Even after one has done one’s best to se- ctre softness and unobtrusiveness of color, one is ‘impatient for vines to grow, and with their cool greens in summer or chang- ing hues in autumn, or by the delicate tracery of their denuded stems in winter, to soften all crudities of outline or tint. A Story of Mystery. Do you know what a “Story of Mystery’ is? It is a continued story of which all but the iast chapter is printed, and then guesses are made as to the solution, then the final installment is printed. On October seventh a most interesting mystery story, “When the War Was Over,” will be started in The Star, and five hundred dollars will be given for the first absolutely correct solution. In case no guess is abso- lutely correct the amount will be divided among those nearest to a correct solution. The guesses will be confined to women read- ers.

FLOCKS OF WILD GOATS Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. HARPER'S FERRY, September 28, 1895 The towns of Harper's Ferry, Bolivar and Camp Hill have a combined population of about 2,200. Harper’s Ferry has a Metho- dist, Catholic, Presbyterian, colored Baptist and colored Methodist Church,while Bolivar has a Lutheran and Methodist Church. The Catholic Church is bullt-of stone and is the oldest in the former town, having been erected in 1833. It is situated on the hill overlooking Shenandosh street, and its rough walls tre marked by many bullets, like a veteran of the war. The Episcopal Church stands close by. and is also built of stone; and, like the Catholic Church, bears the marks of bullets on its walls. The larger portion of the men residing in Harper's Ferry are employed in the pulp mills and on the railroads. There are a number of stores in Harper’s Ferry and Bolivar, which appear to carry on a lively trade. =, On Loudoun and Maryland Heights, which girt Harper's Ferry, are several large peach farms, which raise a delicious fruit. The peach farm on Loudoun Heights ts one of the largest in this part of the country. The peaches produced in this neighborhood are packed and sent by freight to the commis- sion houses of Baltimore, Washington and other large cities. a There is some talk of establishing a sys- tem of water works for the town of Har- per's Ferry. as the water power where the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers meet can be used to good advantage jn making a reservoir to supply the town. It is said that the river here has about thirty-five hundred horse power. ° Proposed Development. The citizens of the town are anxious for the development of this water power, which can not only be used fcr manufacturing purposes, but aleo for establishing an elec- tric plant with which to light the town. The quarries around this region contain some excellent stone, but they are nct be- ing worked at present. There is a mineral belt between Harper's Ferry and Shepherds- town which is said to contain blue marble, limestone, hydraulic cement, iron ore and mineral paint. As there is no railroad run- ning to this point, the stones in these quar- ries cannot be utilized. About two years ago a survey was made for running a rail- road to this place, but as yet nothing fur- ther has been done to promote the project. The water power at Shenandoah City is said to be remarkably strong and ort be used in various ways for improving t lo-~ cality. There is quite an extensive cave betwe2n Harper's Ferry and Rattling Springs, which is supposed to have been occupied by John Brown and his men before the celebrated raid on Harper's Ferry, but the truth fs, neither Brown nor his men ever saw or heard of the place. Beautiful Scenery. No true lover.of nature can fail to be :m- pressed with the beautiful scenery sur- rounding Harper's Ferry. Maryland Heights rises 1,800 feet above the level of, the Potomac, and throws its shadow on the Picturesque rocks of the river below. Lou- doun Heights, which overlook the Shen- andoah, presents almost as fine an appear- arce as its sister mountain on the Potomac. ‘The three states of Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia nearly meet at this point, and are only separated by the two rivers. Loudoun and Maryland Heights are reached from Harper's Ferry by two bridges, which have been recently built. The toll over these bridges is quite high, both for pedestrians and vehicles, and there has been considerable kicking over the charge. The bridges would be made free if it were not for the interstate compll- cation involved in chartering the company that built them. The valley between the three states, where the Potomac and Shen- andoah rivers meet, is so beautiful that Thomas Jefferson, in his “Notes on Vir- ginia;" said that it was worth a voyage across the Atlantic to see. Chimney rock en Loudoun Heights, which overlooks the Shenandoah from a distance of about 250 feet, derives its name from its remarkable resemblance to a chimney. This spot is often ted on account of its novel ap- pearance, as well as the fine view which it commands. ‘A handsome club house nestles on the aide of the mountain facing the Potomac. This is owned by several wealthy Wash- ington men, who find it a convenient place to stop when they come here on fishing and hunting expeditions. Rattling Springs, on the Potomac, about two miles above Harper's Ferry, is reached by a road which skirts the edge of the mountain, aboye which runs the Paltimore and Ohio rail- road in a westerly course. The water of this spring courses down the mquntain be- tween a narrow cleft in the rock, rattling on its way, and this is why the name of Rattling Springs was given to the place. A Restfal View. The Potomac is quite deep here, owing to a large dam a short distance below. There is a graceful bend in the river beyond the springs, and the waters are so placid that they are scarcely disturbed by a ripple. The verdant hills of Maryland and West Virginia look down upon them from either side, and the scenery here 1s worthy of the pen of a poet or the brush of an ar- Uist. The Chesapeake and Ohio canal runs along the base of the mountains on the Maryland side, and boats are often seen going up and down the canal during the day. It is a pretty sight to watch them gliding on their course, while the hills re- echo the sound of the horn which an- nounces their approach. During one of the large floods a canal boat was washed to the foot of Maryland Heights, near the road leading up the mountain, and it has been converted into quite a novel dwelling. A family have occupied this place some time, and seem to be perfectly contented with their home. There are hundreds of wild goats in the mountains around Harper's Ferry. Their Progenitors were undoubtedly tame ones that ran away from man’s jurisdiction. As there are lodges of Masons, Jonadabs, Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows and the Juntor Order of Mechanics in Harper's Ferry and vicinity, it may be possible that these bearded frechooters of the rocks and dump heaps have escaped from some of these lodges. They climb the most difficult places on the mountains with perfect ease and annoy the canal men very much by rolling rocks down upon then The view of the Sherandoah valley from Bolivar Heights is magnificent. Charles- town and Martinsburg are visible from this po:nt. The Blue Ridge mountains can be seen, and also the pinnacle of North moun- tain, which is sixty miles distant. The Al- legheries in Maryland and the old battle ground of Antietam greet the sight when we look toward that state. Relics of the War. Bullets, canteens and other war relics can be picked up almost anywhere on these heights. . A castle built of stone procured from a neighboring quarry stands upon these heights. This castle is of Queen Anne architecture, has chree stories and a base- ment, all the’ modern improvements, and is seventy-six by fifty-four feet. It is handsomely finished inside. The center rooms are all octagon shaped, and every room in the house has an old-fashioned fireplace. It was purchased by Judge Vale from Mr. Whitman of Washington, who built it about four years ago. There is a very fine view of the surrounding country from the porticos of this castle. The judge is an old newspaper man, having n connected with the Washington Chronicle and other papers. He has many war relics in his castle, among which are a handsome sword, found on a field near his place; a number of bullets, canteens and pieces of shell. He also has one of the spears which John Brown and his men used when they invaded Harper's Ferry. j be possible that a “rehearsal The judge told’ many interesting stories relating to Bolivar and Harper’s Ferry. Washington Peo) Notwithstanding the lateness of the sea- scn, there are still many Washingtonians © sojourning at this del'ghtful mountain re- sort. There is eycellent fishing in both the 8! enandoah and Potomac rivers, and many large bass have been caught there this season. A handsome cottage has been erected on the hill above the Potomac pulp mill by Mr. Charles H. Fishbaugh ef Washington, who is now occupying it with his family. Some twenty or thirty ‘ots have been laid out on Bolivar Heights and sold to Washington people, and several cottages will shortly be erected there. The waters of- the Shenandoah and Potomac are unusually low this season, and the men employed at the pulp mills complain that they are not high enough to satisfac- torlly work the mills. Charlestown, the seat of Jefferson county, which lies about seven miles beyond Harper's Ferry on the Shenandoah pike, is quite a pleasant drive, and is interesting on account of its being the place where John Brown and others connected with the Harper’s Ferry insur- rection were convicted and hung. A hand- some brick residence stands upon the spot where John Brown was executed. W.B.H. SS INSTINCTIVE DREAD. The Recognition of Criminal Chi teristics Depicted in the Countamauce. From Lombrosso in the Forum. The knowledge of a criminal physiog- romic type, which at first appeared most novel, and was most generally denied by the savants, is often instinctive among the common people. There are often persons, epecially among women, who are far from suspecting even the existeste of criminal anthropology, and who yet, at the sight of thcee who bear criminal characteristics, In- stantly experience a lively repulsion and know that they are in the presence of a malefactor. I was acquainted with one lady whose life was quite withdrawn from society, who on two occasions discovered tho criminal character of certain young people, not before suspected, but afterward detected by the police. How often we read in the reports of trials of perfectly honest people, unfamiliar with the slightest an- thropological observations, who escape cer- tain death from being warned in time by the sinister glance of the assassin, in which they read his criminal intention. It was in this way that the first letter carrier who was to have been the victim of the mur- derer Francesconi had time to flee, haunted by that glance. At my request schoolmasters have shown to forty young girls ,twenty portraits of thieves and twenty of great men. Four- fifths of these children recognized the first as wretched creatures or as scoundrels and the second as honést men. The universal although involuntary consciousness of the existence of a physiognomy peculiar to criminals has given birth to the epithets, “a thief’s face,” “the look of an assassin,” etc. The only way to explain the opposi- tion to the fact is the reluctance of men to draw a general conclusion from individual observations. But how fs this universal consciousness itself to be explained? In young gir!s there is certainly no knowledge acquired by experience. Then what is there? An intuitive sense, it is sald. That is a vulgar explanation, with which the public is contented because it has no meaning. I suspect that the phenomenon is heredi- -tary. The impression left us by our fathers and transmitted to our children has become unconscious knowledge, like that of the lit- tle birds born and reared in our eae who strike their wings and beaks in fright against their cages when they see pass above them birds of prey known only to their ancestors. Every day teaches vs the importance of the unconscious part in hu- man actions, and what a role is played by atavism and heredity. Who of us can real- ize when he bends the knees and joins the hands in prayer that he is making a he- reditary movemert, transmitted from those epochs of barbarism when war was the normal state? ————_ ee —___ A Mental Stimulus.

Prices Lower Than Last Year—Views of a Shipper on the Outlook, From the New York Tribune. “Apples are in great abundance on both sides of the Atlantic this year,” said a lead- ing receiver and exporter to a Tribune re- porter yesterday, “and are from 25 to 50 cents a barrel cheaper in this market than they were on the corresponding date of last year, when good stock was sold at whole- sale for from $1.50 to $2.50 a ‘harrel, accord- ing to the kind of fruit. At the auetion saies of American apples in Liverpool last week an average price of oniy $1.74 a barrel was obtained, ageinst nearly double that amount in the same week of last Septem- ber, the transatlantic apple crop of last year having aimost totaliy failed, while a full average crop was gathered in the United States, Canada and Nova Scotia. The American apple crop this season is the largest ever before produced in this coun- try. It is estimated that from 7,000,000 to 10,000,000 barrels will be gathered, or from 1,000,000 to 3,000,000 barrels more than ia any previous year. The bwk of the crep will come from the west, notably from the states of Missouri, Indiana, Illinois and Towa. Missouri has the largest crop, but the crops of Indiana and Illinois are nearly double those of last year, while the crop of Towa has increased fully 50 per cent. New York state has a fair crop, but smaller than last year, while the crop of Massachusetts is light. “The apple crops of transatlantic countries ‘are all good, especially those of Germany, Holland and England, but they are mainly composed of early apples, which will be practically consumed by New Year, leaving the foreign market open to American ap- ples with but little competition for four or five months. Prices for American apples abroad, which are now so exceptionally low, will advance as the fortign crep dis- appears, and exports will steadily inerease. Last year there were 1,438,155 barrels ex- ported from New York, Boston, Montreal, Portland and Halifax, of which 537,533 were exported from Montreal and Halifax. “England is the greatest apple consuming country in the world, and even when she has a good stock of her own production, American apples are in such favor that they sell better in England than those which are raised in that country. The vari- eties of American apples most sought for in England are Newtown pippins, on account of their excellent keeping qualities: and Baldwins, largely on account of their at- tractive color, red being a favorite hue with the Br'tish nation. The demand for Ameri- can apples among the British aristocracy Is so great that at the close of last season the last lots received were sold at wholesale as high as $9 a barrel for extra choice Bald- wins.” Big Moncy for an Imagination. A little exercise of your imagination may be worth five hundred dollars in gol@ to you. Read the particulars in another column of The Star’s great mystery story, “When the War Was Over,” by Frederick R. Burton. es Strong Family Ties. From the Critle. I have the pleasure of knowing a family in Philadelphia who have lived in the same house for forty years. As the children of this family grew up they developed a musi- cal talent inherited from four or five gen- crations of men learned in the law as well as skilled with the bow. Every Sunday between 12 and 1 o’clock it was the custom of the father and the sons te play classic music, the father being first violin, one son viola, one second violin, the other viclon- cello. They played well, and, us I lived nearer Philadelphia in those days than I do today, I often dropped in at these re- hearsels, as they cailed them. Five years ago I was in Philadelphia en a Sunday. I had not seen my old friends in fifteen years, but I was sure they were living at the old place. I walked around to the house, and as I mounted the marble steps I hezrd sounds of music. Could it was going on? Yes, sure encugh. There sat the father, his hair snow white, with his violin tucked uncer his chin, and the three “boys"—fathers themselves—all playing away as they had been doing since they were children. To be sure, they were mar- ried men ard did not live at home, but they met every Sunday morning at their father’s for the usual music. I expect to run on to Philadelphia again before long, and, though It has been at least five y since I was at my old friend’s house, expect to hear the music on Sunday morn- irg, for I shall time my visit so as to in- clude a Sunday.
