res the Third Finest Res idence at New Port. PAID NEARLY A MILLION AFTER SPENDING THE WINTER IN EUROPE COLLECTING SOME FURNISHINGS, HE WILL OCCU PY IT IN JUNE. A dispatch from Newport, R. I. con cerning a former Richmond man follows: "One of the most notable transfers of Newport real estate since twenty years ago, when Mr. Hamilton McK Twombly purchased the Catherine L. Wolfe place, was announced by Messrs, Deblos &. Eldridge this ' af ternoon. It was the transfer of Mr. derlck W. Vanderbilt's handsome summer residence on tne cliffs tp Mr ."illiam B. Leeds, who will occupy it or the first time next season. Mr. Leeds had looked over the house and grounds several times with a view to purchasing it and it was known that he and Mrs. Leeds were much taken with the place, but so much time had elapsed since he made his last inspection that it was under stood he had given up the idea of ing. The estate, which is known as Rough Point, ranks third in 'value and. attractiveness among 1 all New port's summer places. The grounds which contain 393,519 square feet of land, front on Bellevue avenue and extend to the famous cliffs east and north, the cliff walk turning on the estate. The villa is of stone and Is of a low, rambling style of architecture that fits perfectly with the landscape. As it Is located on Rough Point, it affords one of the most engaging ocean outlooks to be had from the cliffs. , The bluff is bold off Rough Point and the surf dashes unusually high, while the shore,' In front of the villa is wild ard picturesque. "There is a pretty lodge on ther es tate, and Mr. Leeds has also purchas ed the stables in Lake View avenue, which are surrounded by 35,14 square feet of land. Mr. Vanderbilt built the house eighteen years ago, having purfclfcised three estates for a site. He and Mrs. Vanderbilt spent the summer there regularly until five years ago, when Mr. Vanderbilt found the climate did not agree with his health and he purchased a coujtry plaee in Hyde! Park? where he has since spent the summer seasons. "Mr. Vanderbilt never had rented the house, but he loaned it for several seasons to Mr. and Mrs. Thomas H. Howard, the latter Mrs. 'Vanderbilt's niece. Though Mr. and Mrs. Vanderbilt had practically abandoned Newport as a summer home, it was only a few months ago that they consented to dispose of their place. , "Mr. and Mrs. Leeds have spent two seasons here, occupying the villas of Mr. I. Townsend Burden and Mr. John R. Drexel. They will soon go abroad for the winter, and on' their return to this country in June they will come to Newport. While abroad they wil( purchase a large amount of furnishings for the house. "No statement is made of the. price paid by Mr. Leeds for Rough Point, but it is believed to be about $S00,000. The estate is taxed for $333,200, which is a very low valuation, even for purposes of taxation. "The estates of Mr. Elbridge T. Gerry and Mrs. Blair Fairchild adjoin Mr. Leeds' purchase on the north and south respectively." . ARNOLD HAS BREAK DOWN TWELVE MILES FROM HOME New Auto Goes Bad and After a Night Spent in the Open, New Autoist and Party Reach City by Aid of Livery Rigs. "Mein Host". Sam Arnold who recently joined the growing auto frat ernity of Richmond is already having his troubles. Although an autoist of but a few days '"Mr.Arnold has al ready had the experience of a break down a dozen miles from home on a - r 1 vnint' v- frh $ This experience came yesterday. Mr. Arnold with a party of three friends started at ten o'clock yesterday morning on what was planned to be a pleasant trip down to Liberty, up to Connersville and back home. The trip went very well until the party reached the Abington and Centerville pike about twelve miles south of Richmond. Here the machinery refused to work. The new autoist dreaded to give up and applied his best efforts and all the knowledge he had learned from many catalogues to the break but all to no avail. lie first telephoned that he would be late in getting home and at eleven o'clock with a night in the open in prospect he sent word to Ryan's livery barn for a surrey and a phaeton. The vehicles were despatched to the scene and when the cocks were crow ing this morning Sam and party . ar rived in Richmond 7 X, 3 Haw !3vs BoiEfc!

We have known a man to buy a yoke of three-year-old steers in th spring, work thenx hard six days in the week, giving them good hay and about four quarts of meal a day until October, when the work lessened and the grain was increased. In November he sold them as beef for about $30 more than he paid for them. If horses had done the same work they would have wanted more grain and probably would have been valued much less in the fall than they cost In the spring. It is oaid that oxen might not work as well on the reaper or mowing machine, but they might also. We have had three or four year cattle that would walk foe miles as fast as any pair of horses and force many horses to trot a part of the way to keep up with them and a pair of old cattle that walked faster than the ordinary farm horse. A part of that was due to their having been trained to walk quickly, and a part was due to the , breed. Small cattle like the Devons, Jerseys or Ayrshlres are naturally active and easily learn to walk fast, while the larger Durhams and Herefords like to ntov.e more leisurely, and this is true of grades as well as of thoroughbreds Always try to be big in little things if you want to be among those present wher a big thing is pulled off. The man who is looked upon as making a specialty of failures and keeping at it industriously occasionally eprincs a surprise. 7 x

A pictorial composition should, of eourse, be" inclosed by a frame of such a sort, that its attractiveness will be enhanced and that an , agreeable transition will be established between it and its surrounding. Although the frame may in and for itself be beautiful, its beauty must be kept distinctly subservient to the aesthetic value of the pictnre. In no event may It be positively ugly, it machine construction is necessarily Involved, this must at least be made as unobjectionable as possible. However, the frame should be produced in strict aceordaace with handicraft methods.!

Lee, Vice Grand Master of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, after a long conference with George L. Peck, general Manager of the Pennsylvania lines west of this city. ' "Our conference with Mr. Peck," Mr. Lee continued, "has resulted in the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg granting the middle scale, which is 1 cent less than the Chicago scale of wages. I received a message from the officials of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad that that road had receded from the stand taken at their conference yesterday and had also decided to grant the middle scale. We have notices from the Pittsburg & Lake Erie railroad that they have also de cided to grant the same scale."
