The Cleveland Baby.

It is asserted that Mrs, Cleveland will
give her third daughter, as she did
Ruth and Esther, a Bible name. One
of the guessers says:

“If Mrs. Cleveland goes to the Bible
for the name it will be Naomi, for
‘Naomi gathered sheaves with Ruth.’ ”

Trolley Workman Burned.

Prosper Mason, while painting trol-
ley poles in Southport yesterday, placed
his hand on the span wire. It doubled
him up, and to save himself he grasped
another wire, thus completing the. cir-
cuit. ' .

His feet kept dangling from the lad-
der upon which he was standing, but
his fellow workmen were afraid to go
near him. The shock finally released
him and he fell to the ground.

His hands were severely burned and
he sustiined other severe injuries

Elm Tree Beetle.

In yesterday’s New York Times there
appeared an interesting letter from
Lewis Collins, Secretary of the Tree
Planting and Fountain Society of
Brooklyn. The paper is quite lengthy,
but the pith of it is, that the elm tree
beetle was imported from abroad, some
fifty years ago, and that it prefers the
common English elm to that of the
American Species, the white elm, Utmus
Americana or slippery elm. Mr. Col-
lins recommends that the slippery, elm
be planted, and says that only spraying
will kill the bug. '

elm trees if their owners will follow
these instructions: The worms have
done all the damage they can and are
now beginning to fall to the earth.
Every worm will shortly be off the
branches so as to go through their
transformation. Large numbers will
crawl down the trunk, hiding them-
selves under the tough bark. Many
will reach the ground. Others will fall
Off the end of the branches. .
If the elms were not again attacke
by the pest they would put out a new
set of foliage and recover from the
present injury. But this new crop of
worms will in a fortnight or so again
become beetles which will fly up into
the branches. A second set of eggs are
laid, new worms hatched and the new
foliage destroyed. This will in many
instances end the life Of the tree.
During the next ten days is the only
opportunity to save them. With a
broom sweep down the trunk and sweep
up the grubs on the ground as far

the grubs together and kill them with

Johnson’s Cyclopedia vs. Stolen
Goods.

3

 

No one denies that stolen goods are
the cheapest. But honeit men do not
want nor will they knowingly purchase
such goods, and, therefore, they must
be sold at reduced rates to unsuspect~
ing persons. Now this is exactly the
case with the Sentinel’s edition of the
Britannica.

It is a pirated work and, thereforemo
scholar and but few persons will allowit
to-be seen on their shelves. Its only cost
lies in its publication and, therefore, a
Work Costing the original publishers
over a million dollars can be sold at one
third the price asked for the original.
This is the moral side of the question.
Whether it is wise 'to purchase this
book because it is cheap, when you can
procure a better work that is not stolen
is a question that each one must decide
for himself.

All that we wish to say at present re-
:garding the attack on Johnson’s
Cyclopedia in yestertay’s GAZETTE, is
that in many respects it is absolutely
false and in every particular totally
misleading. We have never said one
word against the scholarly nature of
the original Britannica; the many and
gross defects of the reprint no w) Offered
for sale here, will be fully exposed in a
few days. Meanwhile the peeple of
Norwalk can contrast the unsupported
statements of these unknown agents
with the very carefully prepared opin-
Ion of one of your abiest and best
known scholars, the Rev. D. M. Se—
ward, which Will appear in this paper

A FIGHT. ill MILLIONS

Large Estate to Be Begun.
A GREATLY MIXED UP CASE.

 

I‘art of the Fortune Was Used to Found
an Orphan Asylum, and Some 'W'as
Seized by the State—The Prop-
erty and ran-ties at Interest.

 

NEW YORK, July 9.-Legal measures
will be instituted hero in a few days to
establish the ownership of real estate in
this city and state and in E1izabeth,-N.
J ., at one time owned by John George
Leako, the present value of which is esti-
mated at many millions of dollars. Claim-
ants for the estate took steps to obtain
possession of it more than 40 years ago, but
without success. Lawyers in this city and
in the west are now engaged in arranging .
the necessary legal preliminaries to what
will no doubt prove an impatient legal
contest.

Robert Leaks was born in Scotland in
1700, and in 1739 enlisted in the King’s
Horse Guards, to which only gentlemen
could belong. He was appointed commis-
sary general to the British army in North
America in 1746, and about this time he
married. Soon after the French and In-
dian war he settled in this city near what
is now Fulton and Nassau streets and lived
there until his death, on Dec. 28, 1773.
He was buried in Trinity churchyard.

His first Wife died in England in 1754.
He married again in this city, his second
wife being Ann Burredge, a relative of
John Leaks, but who was not related to
Robert.

She died in 1783, leaving three children
—-a daughter and a son, Robert William,
both of whom died childless, and another
son, John George Leakc, to whom his fo-
ther's estate descended.

The Original Property»

The property had consisted of houses,
stores, Offices and stables in this city, three
farms in New J emery, an estate in Eng-
land, several farms and tracts of land in
Albany county and on the Mohawk river
and lands in Florida. There was also
much personal property. Robert Leaks,
however. had strongly adhered to the

‘ king’s cause during the excitement pre-
ceding the Revolution, and much of his
property was confiscated after his death.

John George Locke at once took charge
of the property. He never married and
died at his home to Park row on J ans 2,
1827. ~

After his death there was a long search
for awlll, and when found it was believed
that it had been made 85 years before. It
was neither signed, sealed nor acknowl.
edged, nor had any of the forms usual in.
such cases been observed, yet it was held
to be valid.

After several bequests he gave the re-
mainder of his estate to his executors in
trust for the widow of his brother. At her
death it was to go to her brother’s second
son, Robert Watts, on condition that he
and his heirs should take the name of
Locke. If Watts refused the conditions,
the estate was to go to a board of trustees
consisting of the rector and wardens of
Trinity church, the oldest minister of the
Reformed Dutch church, the oldest minis-
ter of the Presbyterian church and the
mayor and recorder ex Oflicio of the city,
these trustees to purchase property in the
suburbs and erect an institution for the
maintenance and education of orphan
children.

Watts Shut Out by Death. ‘

Robert Watts applied to the legislature
for permission to change his name, bu
before permission could be granted he
died. The property, therefore, went to the
trustees. The cornerstone of the Watts-
Leake Orphan asylum Was laid near the
corner of One Hundred and Thirteenth
street and Ninth avenue on April 28,
1838, and the liaise was opened on Nov.
15, 1843.. In 188? the property was sold
for 8850, 000, and it is now the site of the
new Episeo ail cathedral. The present
home is in onkers.

The greater part of J ohn George Leake’s
estate remains to be accounted for. In
1836 the state seized all the real property,
except that named. Much of the land has
since been sold.

James Bay, agreat grandson of Robert
Leiflie, made claim to the property in this
state and in New Jersey. He was a man
of means and collected a large amount of
evidence in Scotland and elsewhere, which
is still on record. He died many years ago,
poor and broken hearted, because of his 111
success.

The claimants who now propose to try
to obtain poBsessiOn of the property left
by J ohn George Leakc are his great-great—
granddaughters, hire. Henry Ellison of
140 West Eighty-fifth street, whose hus-
band is a mem r of the wholesale dru
firm of Ellison Van‘HOrne; Mrs. Edit
Van Cortland Stebblns, and their Sister,
Mrs. Clara Locke-Hewson of Jersey City.
Another claimant is James B. Leaks of
Hannibad, MO, who says John George
Leake was his great-great-granduncle.

Mr. Rider Is Not‘NorwaIk.

A Clear Case of Mistaken identity
in the Sentinel’s Article of
Saturday. A

Mr. Rider is not Norwaik, nor its rep-
resentative, nor is he in any way ant-hor-
ized to speak for it. He does not even
represent the views of the majority of
its citizens, respecting this pirated and
unreliable edition of the Britannica.
.Yet the editor of the Sentinel seems to
regard him as not only authorized but
competent to Speak for the citizens of
Norwalk when he aflirms that a letter
from this gentleman “should settle the
encyclopedia controversy in Britan—
nica’s favorJ’.
While the editor of the Sentinel may
regard the recent letter of Mr. Rider
as expressing the sentiments of the
citizans of Norwalk, by no means
should it be taken as a standard of their
knowledge respecting the merits and
topical arrangement of an encyclo-
pedia. We have too high regard ‘ for
the intelligence of the citizens of this
place to think for one moment that
they are so ignorant as not to know
what articles to consult when they; re-
fer to an encyclopedia.
This much can safely be afli rmed and
certainly ought to be said. that their
good common sense, not to say any-
thing about their education, would
lead them to turn to .S’c-wcragc if they
wish to look up anything about its fli-
tration, disposition or indeed anything
connected with this subject.
. But the volume containing that sub—
ject is not yet printed and therefore
his long article is entirely worthless.

Mr. Rider also says he refused to en'
dorse the article on Chemistry and
Biology. Anything written by Prof.
Ira Remson of John Hopkins Universi-
tv or Prof. Theodore Gila of Columbian
University, Washington, certainly
needs no endorsement at his hands.
