He says he don’t like 317 pages which are ro-written or the supplements. His frantic snort to pick these articles to places is postivoly amusing. He makes bungling work of it and we think that it Its is no more able to judge or the merits of awritteu article than he has shown himself competent, in this letter, to write one, his opinion should not have much weight. , The fact that he attacks on 317 pages E .. a the orignol text and the supplements 'fld refrains from saying a single word II regard wall the rest of his great work flows that he is prejudiced and like others, looking for spots on the sun.

In a late number of The Cosmopoli- tan Magazine a. company, among whom are a preacher, an artist, a physician, a lawyer and a literary man, are snp‘ posed to be discussing a certain uncon- ventional novel. The almost unani- mous opinion is that the author has sco- rificed his successful worldly career by being foolish enough for once to write just what he thought. Thoroupon the literary man flared up and turned and faced the editor and all the rest: “Do you mean to tell me that if Istop jug- gling words for this editor hcrc"—and reach. ing over he shook a long forefinger squarely in the editor’s face—~“who would and does buy me. body and soul, in order to meet the de- mands of his subscribers—do you mean to tell me that if I step out of the ma kct place for an hour and try to write the p re. unadulter. atoll, unprejudiccd. disinterested, unselfish truth that I am to be crushed; that I am to be made a target for every paid critic; that I am to be denounced as ungodly. as immoral and even such talents as I may he possessed of de~ tiled? Confound it all, such a world is not worth living in!" ' The result of it all was that the edi- tor of The Cosmopolitan is minded to make an experiment. Ho desires to find out whether [people want writers to say out honestly what they, the writers, be- lieve in their souls to be the truth, or only to say what society in general thinks it thinks is the truth. According- ly in the editorial columns of the maga- sino appears the following invitation, honestly and gcnhinely extended: Will you, reader, solid to this ( o Cosmo- politan) magazine a postal card wi the word “You" or “No" to this question: Do you wish to road all sidcs of the vital qumtions agitalr lug town's souls ru-gardlmsof your own beliefs, provided always that they are formulated uln- ccrcly and unselfiehly? Among the vast and novel enterprises the close of the nineteenth century wit~ bosses is that of building a town to or» dcr. Formerly towns were not made. They just grew. But we have changed that. Dvpow, named for America's greatest after dinner orator, shows how\ a town is built. A stock company is formed, a suitable spot sells-toil, streets are laid off, sewers constructed. gas mains put in, a city park is set apart, trees are planted to form future avenues and thou the public is invited to come, buy lots and occupy. The public gener- ally (love so. It is notable that here as (‘lrlt'XVlli‘l'fi in this ago a great amount of capital is required to accomplish uny- thlng. The new city of Dvpvw, which lll‘llllirft‘fi to make Ilntl'alu one of its sub- urbs, has the distinction of being a rail- lionaire town. Vtmdorbilt and Astor tuxitod for once in their lives over its foundation walls, and its stockholders are millionaires. We shall sou whether it will prove much better and grander than other towns.

It has a bad look, smut-how, when a mayor who went into ofllco on reform principles begins by blackmailing boar salmon and gambling houses. as the mayor of a Western city is charged with doing. It has a tendency, on the whole, to make a man reflect that nobody is honest but himself. Itolo a Watch and Sold it. Yesterday afternoon a well-dressed stranger scouted James Ladrlgan, of Iain street, Rowsyton. and requested permission to go into the house and wash his hands. James readily acqui- esced, and thought nothing of tho olr- cumstauco until he missed his gold watch and chain, and then be quickly associated its disappearance with the stranger, and persons who saw James thought he had gone wild.

Life at One of the lost Popular Bosnia Along the Sam lieu. I Quite a number of people have said since the tire that the calamity would drive some of the. residents away and keep others from coming who were in- tending tospond some weeks at the Is- land, and that, also, property here would decrease in value. Since the lira Tim- othy Foster has had seven applications for cottages, and last Friday the Rev. William James was oifered by a real. dent of Brooklyn live hundred dollars more for his property than what he bought it for last February. The would- bo purchaser was ready to give a check for the entire amount, but Mr. James ro- lusedthe offer and said he would not take one thousand dollars additional to what he paid for it. The social season has not yet oom~ menood on the Island. “meanings are spent by the younger element either on the pianos of the inviting and cosy cot- tages or in a stroll to Roton. Others go to the little Bell Island waiting room for a cooling drink or for ice cream. The plank walk along the beach between the Island and Roton is an attractive prome- nade on moonlight nights, and often are seen oooing couples strolling along arm in arm, listening presumably to what the “sad sea waves are saying." The summer ‘ girl is just now very much in evidence at the Island. Yousee her everywhere. attired either in a natty tailor-made gown of in an attractive summer costunn She is either strolling or sketching, and when the tide is right, attired in a bath- ing suit,sbo is folickiug in the wavos. Boll Island girls are a vivacious set, and it is their bright faces and pleasing manners that make life at the Island so pleasant. A very interesting cottage proypr and praise meeting was held at the residence of Ir. Bird. on Sunday evening, led by Joel Foster. A similar meeting was held at the Children‘s Summer Home on the previous Sunday evening, led by Rev. William James. It is the intention to continue holding these meetings at different cottages on Sunday evenings during the remainder of the summer season. Miss Bradford, one of the charming young ladies who is an inmate of the Five Points House of industry, and spent last week at Bell Island, where she did eroic work the night of the big lire, ‘ t of thecottsgers and , has just graduated from the New York Normal collegefivith an average standing of ninety-four per cent. The camp chairs that are used for out- door services on Sunday, and that were in a large box adjoining kir. Todd‘s house on the night of the fire, were all raved, excepting about one dczen, and some of them were taken from the box while it was on tire. D. E. Rogers. of .Dsnbury, who was burned out at the time of the big lire, sent a load of furniture to the Island yesterday to furnish another cottage which he has leased. It was on Conduc- tor Mahoney's freight and was smashed in the wreck. ' Woodkavsn, L. 1., which was visited by acyclono on Saturday, is the place where Rev. William James was the rec- tor of tho Congregational church for thirty years. He owns a house there, but he bellsvesit was not disturbed by the cyclone. There is now no doubt that the Darien Water company will extend its mains to Bell Island in the fall, and that next summer the Island will have an ade- quate water supply. The cost of maintaining the Summer Home of the Five Points House of In- dustry will be about “000. Captain Weeks took a large party of Dsnburians across the Sound. Sunday, in tho Lida Iisy.
