An interesting relic has been secured by George Dudley Seymour of New Haven, a graduate of Columbian University, Wash- ington, D.C., but warmly interested in Yale, and will in due season be given to the uni- versity. It consists of the double doors of the house of the Rev. William Russell of Branford, where in the year 1700 the trus- tees of the future Yale College met and Presented forty books, each trustee as he laid the volumes down saying, according to the tradition, “I give these books for the foundation of a college in this colony.”” The original house was built in 1675, and bought by Mr. Russell twelve years later. It was torn down in 1835, but the doors were secured and kept in a garret by Mrs. Mary E. Russell Mann of Branford, a de- scendant of William Russell, and from her they have been obtained by Mr. Seymour, who will have them handsomely framed and presented to the university, possibly in 1901, in connection with the two hun- dredth anniversary of the founding. The doors are of cedar or pine wood, each about six feet by two, very well preserved, yet bearing interesting marks of old age, fit- ted with the original iron latch and hinge strappings, and the panels very firm and clearly outlined. They have been roughly repaired in a number of places, and bear some traces of paint. Mr. Seymour has also suceeded in obtaining a plan of the house and of the room where the founders met, drawn by one of the carpenters when the building was torn down sixty-two years ago,” S —_—_+ee.

TWO OHIO LEADERS Most Prominent Opponents of Senator Hanna, CAREERS OF KURTZ AND M'KISSON Agreement and Result of the Zanes- ville Convention. THE CLEVELAND CONTESTS —__—_—_ Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. CLEVELAND, O., November 18, 1897. Probably the most prominent figures in Ohio politics today, Senator Hanna except- ed, are Charles L. Kurtz of Columbus and Robert Erastus McKisson, mayor of ..eve- land. They are the leaders of the so-called fight against the election of Senator Han- na. The opposition to Senator Hanna may or may not amount to much, but these young men will get an uncommonly large amount of advertising, whether it is much or little. A few words about them may be interesting. Kurtz is much better known than Mc- Kisson, although he has never held such a prominent office as McKisson now fills as mayor of Cleveland. Kurtz dabbled in poli- tics in southern Ohio. Athens county, the southernmost county, where the first de- gree ever conferred by a university in the northwest territory was given in 1815, was his birthplace. He attracted the attention of Senator Foraker, while he was governor of Ohio. Foraker was so much imp: with his sagacity as a politician that he made him his private secretary. Only an Indian has as long a memory as Kurtz. When in 1889 Foraker was defeat- ed for a third term he satisfied himself that Foraker’s undoing was the result of such eminent Ohioans as President McKin- ley, Secretary Sherman, Senator Hanna and Representative Grosvenor. These four have always been allies in the party pri- maries and conventions. They constituted what was first known as the Sherman, then the McKinley-Sherman, and finally the Hanna faction. When Kurtz came to that conclusion his nature forbade him to forget or to forgive. Ever since 1889 he has been fighting to advance the interest of Senator Foraker's friends and political followers. He was in the thickest part of the contest for the senatorial election in 1892 between Secre- tary Sherman and Senator Foraker, when Senator Hanna was Sherman's chief lieu- tenant. The Zaresville Plan. It was not until 1895 that Kurtz occu- pied anything more than a minor posi- tion. That was the year of the Zanesville convention, when the Ohio republicans agreed to do three things, namely, elect Bushnell governor, send Foraker to the Senate and put McKinley in the White House. Kurtz was made chairman of the executive committee which conducted the campaign. Bushnell got a plurality of 85,- 00 votes and Foraker had a majority of § on joint ballot in the legislature. The next year McKinley carried the state by something more than 51,000 majority. — Kurtz believes Senator Hanna promised that Governor Bushnell should be per- mitted to name him for chairman this year. Senator Hanna, however, had other plans, and now Kurtz has other plans about Hanna. Hell may have no fury like a woman scorned, but there is no other Ohioan on the republican side of the po- litieal fence to whom revenge is swecter than to Kurtz. Until this year Kurtz's feeling against the leaders of the Hanna faction has been wholly on account of fan- cied injuries to Foraker. This year the injury has been to Kurtz, and the desire for revenge is tenfold stronger. The former chairman is one of the quiet, unassuming sort of men. His factional enemies are ready to believe that Machai- velli is the writer on political economy he most admires. When Kurtz goes to a state convention to manage any part of its forces he doesn’t establish himself in room that is all windows. If he can find a “hole in the wall” that can be reached by first ascending to a garret, then going down into a cellar, then through a tunnel. it suits him better than anything else. The management of the Zanesville convention was his greatest work. But no man knew where Kurtz was doing his work, unless Kurtz sent a messenger for him, until after the convention was called to order. By that time Kurtz had everything arranged to suit himself. He did not need to main- tain himself in darkness any longer. Kartz’s Method of Working. It is one of the characteristics of the For- aker faction that its leaders never go into a convention without fully matured plans. They don’t know anything about stamped- ing a convention. They set up Foraker delegations in each county and if they lose in the prituaries, they don’t, as a rule, ex- pect to be able to accomplish anything by “wild cheering,” “long continued ap- plause,” and such adjuncts in the conven- tion. Senator Hanna followed their meth- ods in preparing for the St. Louis conven- tion. To Kurtz, as much as anyone else, is due the system which is used in Ohio. He thinks about plans. He is no speech- maker. He is not a talker, and he never appears to be agitated or flurried. If he only had a round, moon-like face he could give the smile that Is called “childlike and bland.” Sharp, restless eyes and a sharp nose, however, are, in his case, indicators of the sharp and active mind. Clevelond’s Young Mayor. Robert Erastus McKisson was born and reared on a farm fifteen miles south of Cleveland. He is just a few days more than 34 years old, but he doesn’t look a Gay over 23 or 24. He is so young that he can’t even grow a mustache. His political enemies tried ridicule and called him the blue-eyed boy. They made fun of the blue- eyed boys he appointed members of his cabinet. That was two years ago when McKisson was elected the first time. They said he would be the “deadest” politician in town, yet ke defeated the man who ran against hin. for the nomination by 7,200 votes. The election he won by 2,500 votes, although he was opposed by dozens of Mr. Hanna’s political workers. He is the first man to be elected mayor twice since the city has been organized on the so-called federal plan. Under this plan the mayor only is elected. He appoints the heads of departments and these directors constitute wkat is commonly called his cabinet. This matter of patronage has been the rock upon which the political fortunes of McKisson’s predecessors have been shat- tered. In making up their cabinets they disappointed so many party workers that when they came up for re-election they were slaughtered by the disappointed ones. McKisson, however, notwithstanding his few years and looks that caused him to be called “the boy wonder,” organized a ma- chine and broke the one-term record. Al- though he has not yet served half of his second term, he is already a candidate for a third term—something which no other Here is perhaps the secret of McKisson’s present anti-Hanna activity. Many of Sen- ator Hanna’s local leaders are advocating an amendment of the federal plan law so by Connecticut reached the laughed at not years. So McKisson, settled | never thought of having a mayor 2 the Civic Federa- tion, and the Christian Endeavorers united on @ man—a man whose name is forgotten now. The Foraker faction was paralyzed at the combination made against it. That was McKisson’s opportunity. He quietly pledged the Foraker ward ik to his cause.

They accepted him because the man they wanted was afraid to try for the prize. The outcome of it all was that Me- Kisson was nominated by a plurality of 2 over the Hanna faction candidate. At the election he beat ex-Senator Brice’s lieutenant, John H. Farley's man, Robert Blee, by 7,100 votes. During the mpaign ne of the secret arguments against the blue-eyed boy's election was that his srandfather was lynched for horse Stealing, Of course there was no truth in the report.

Hale iu the Hartford Courant. For years I have been talking of the profitableness of apple culture upon the cheap, hilly lands of our state. To be sure, last year, when there was a tremendous crop the country over, and good apples went begging at 75 cents a barrel, a good many were laughing at me and suggesting that there was not much indication there of 4 profitable industry, but I maintained then and still maintain that taken one year with “nother it apples can be sold at $1 per bar- rel there are thousands of acres of cheap, rough land in our states that could be made to pay liberal dividends sure and annually, if planted in the best varieties of winter *pples; and I know of no business venture, either in agriculture, manufacturing or ccmmercial enterprises, that holds out greater promise of sure and safe returns than the buying up of large tracts of avail able orchard lands and planting in apple: This year, with quite a general failure the crop, there are a number of orchards in the state that have had g00d care ana are yielding liberally, and the price now be- ing received ($2.50 and over per barre. are paying tremendors dividends en the invest- ments. Two or three weeks ago, while in Virginia, traveling through Albemar'e, Nelson, Am- herst and Bedford countie: famous the world over for the production of the so- called Albemarle Pippins (really the New. town Pippin), I found the orchards mostly on rough hillsides, rocky lands, no better in ony Way apparently than thousands of acres we have in Litchfield, Tolland and Windham counties of our state, and so far as I could judge producing no better ap- ples of like varieties than can be grown here; yet English buyers were out among the farmers paying from $3.50 to 34.50 per barrel for these apples in the orchards, and I was shown the returns from some shipments made direct by orcharilists, that neited over $5 per barrel at the railroag station. Two farms that I was on could have been bought five years ago at less than S.000 each and yet the 1897 apple crop of one had just been sold for $14,000 and the other for $15,000, the buyer gathering the fruit from the tree. J tried to ascertain from several of the Englishmen why their markets paid so much more for this fruit than any other that came from America, and they agreed that while the variety was an exceedingly good shipper, it was not of as fine appear- ance or any better in quality than many other apples that came from this country, but was early taken up by royalty and so gained a precedence over other varieties or American apples that was not likely long to be maintained and that probably within a very few years some of the finer red ap- ples grown in more northern latitudes would find greater favor with the English buyers. The prices being received in Virginia this year will stimulate heavy orchard planting. A Richmond nursery firm told me they hi already booked orders for over 2 of this one variety, and so intense is the in- terest in apple culture in the old dominion that the progressive Southern railway, through its land and industri: agent, has just taken a party of Virginia farm: rs on an excursion up into central and western New York :o gather in ideas in relation to apple orcharding and management. The Southera railway is particul leader in doing everything it can the few years to bring new methods and 1 information on all agricultural subje those living along its lines. Other southern railroads are also doing a good deal of the same sort of missionary work, and there is a development of in- dustries going on all through the south that is going to make that section a sharp competitor with the north in many lines of production that we have had exclusive con- trol of in the past. The northeasiern farmer has had tremendous opportunities: for enlarged business enterprises and has failed lo grasp the situation. The oppor- tunities are still here and with some ad- vantages in our favor those who will put Progressive business methods and « reason- able amount of capital into agricultural en- terprises, which they have some ‘te for, are sure of satisfactory rewards. jucated young men with a taste for agriculture had better stick to the farm, for I am sure in the long run they can maintain more com- fortable homes and be sure of « better liv- ing than the average. of outside opportune ities that may come to them. Danger From Chewing Gum. From the British Me@tcal Journal. The chewing gum habit has been taken up in England by many young women— students, actresses and others—who have become inveterate chewers. A few days ago an inquest was held at Lincoln on a child, eight years of age, who died from the effects of eating a pellet of the eub- starce. The symptoms preceding death were those of gastritis, and at the post- mcrtem examination it was found that the mvcous membrane of the stomach was in- flamed and that there was much local peri- tonitis. The coroner pointed out that the or Ss to ceeding, and the jury, in indorsing his re- marks, added that in its opinion the sale should be absclutely prohibited. - oo—____ Weaith 2 Dend Miscr’s Reom. Charles Pearcy, who for fifteen years was a familiar figure in West Madison street, Chicago, is dead. He was at least fifty-five years old when he took his lodg- ings in a little room at No. 224 West Madi- son street. He lived the life of a recluse, At times he did his own cooking and some- times he ate in the cheap restaurants of the neighborhood. He never did any work. Neither did he ever seem to be in actual want. He made no friends. It was learned that the old man had come to Chicaga from Virginia. It was also learned that he had a brother somewhere in that state who was a county clerk or something of that kind. Still later it was reported that he had ancther brother in New York, wha ‘was rich. But the old man would not talk about himself, and would neither affirm nor deny these reports. Although living the life of a miser, an investigation his rocm after his death showed that he had between $35,000 and $40,000.
