M ill i sure- in Sommfr lime.
Sr.an vears ns'i George Dawpon
llarritt a m.rejatit of this city, prid
ed himself on what be thought the
reoit beautiful and thoroughly
equipped summer residence in this
country. Ii was located at Irving
ton, cn the east bank of the Hudson,
and about a mile ircrn tne aepoi.
What was then known as the Mtr
ritt estate is now known as tbe Jay
Gould estate, and could its former
proprietor, now dead, awake to life
be would scarcely recognize hit ideal
home. In lSbO Jay oouia Decanse
struck with tiie inagniliceuce of the
property and purchased it Since
the day that it passed into hia hands
he has been continually backing na
ture with capital until he ha suc
ceeded in creating one of the loveli
est sites in the world. The estate
now covers, (according lo the books
of the supervisors) 511) acres of the
roost eligible arid fertile land in
Westchester county. Of this about
200 acres are woodland, and the rest
devoted to lawns and light farming.
It is said that the purchasing
price paid by Mr. Gould for the es
tate was in the neighborhood of
82 H(-0, and that he can dispose of
the rropartv any day ftr five time6
that amount, r 51,000,000. The
houne of the little great king of
fiiiir.ee is built in gothic style.and in
itself is not particularly striking. It
faces the river from a distance of
S.0CO leet, and the visw command
ing is at ccce grand and pictuwqe.
It contains twenty rooms, beside a
basement of the dimensions of the
houss. Not unt:l entering tne nouse
is the visitor fully increased with
the sway that its owner must have
in the financial wcrld.
Axtiiinsier and Moquet carpets
and velvet tapesty cover the floors,
and frescoing of the most delicate
and expensive patterns decks the
walls r.nd ceilings.
( tn the tecond floor is Mr. Gould s
pride, tne art gtui.ry. n a-iieuus
the entire depth of the house, and
the
i Ti. a -J -
baa tLe full benefit of the setting
sun. In it is hung a most tidy for
tune in paintingB, by the most cele
brated iunottrs. Uric-a-brac is ev
erywhere rrevi.ieut, and nothing is
wanting tJ im.ke Euch a home s
only a many-times millionaire can
afford. Surrounding the house is a
graceful, wavy lawn of ninety-fivs
acrei, kept with faultless care, and
marred only by the siDle macada
mized roadway leading from the
main road to the house, distance
cf m-srly a quarter of a mile. The
ground?" are separated from the road
by a o'iihed stone fence, nearly
four fret high.
At the tniiaiice gale stand a very
pretty little coti;:g, the domain f
the iaiii steward, who for twenty
two years L: eeupied the position,
and under whefft personal tupervi
sioa every improvement has taken
place.
Proceed ir.a: inward the river, the
next object to attract one's atten
tion are M r. Gould's hothouses, nine
teen iu number, and comprising
combined about (iUO feet in length
and 4"0 i: width. In these can be
fonnd every description of flower
that grows on the face of the globe.
From there Mr. Gould relishes
grapes up to February 1, eats straw
berries of Lis own growing to top oil'
his Christmas darner, and takes the
pits out of his own peaches on
April Foot' Day.
The huthoutes and their contents
are valued at S2 j0,O0U. Underneath
the hothouses is a miniature cellar !
only 40-3 feet in length, in which are
stored article of vegetation to which
a cellar is indispensable. Ilere are
also roots which are now sprouting
and which will soon be used to dec
orate the house in one mass of green
foliage. Mr. Gould will make affi
davit that he does not u oleomar
garine, because his twenty-four head
of thoroughbred cattle supply him
with the choicest of butter aud milk
to which water is a stranger.
Twenty-four horses do the firm
work and supply the members of
the family with all the out-of-door
enjoymeDt they wish. Poultry
abounds and of the choicest breed.
It is said that one of Jay Goulds
greatest delights is to rire early and
with his youngest sou, Frank, watch
the process cf feeding the chick.
Eighty men have been employed
constantly for the past year, and for
their wages receive S'J per week, or a
grand total of 82.SS0 per month. It
requires ten pair of hands to look
after the housework beside the
French chef who presides over the
cuisine. The chambermaids, house
keepers' and governess' wages
amount to 8300 monthly, and the
Gentleman who wears the white cap
and prepares creme de volaille grows
fat over 8250 per month, or SoO less
than the other ten put together.
Allowing that tlie live stock are
self-supporting, Gould's expenses,
exclusive ot his house in this city,
his yacht and hundreds of other
aside; are at lrvingloa, S3SS.S9 per
day, or 11,516.00 per month and
KS,19'J.92 a year. Since the advent
of Jay Gould at Irvington he has
not only spent thou-.ands of dollar
in beautifying the place, which is an
omatusnt to the beautiful village,
but has been no less industrious in
improving its sanitary condition.
For years there has been a swamp
right in the heart of the village,
which has been the source 'if ma
laria and other obnoxious diseases.
Ilecently Mr. Gould purchased it.
and id dow engaged in draining it by
the aid of a tunnel at an enormous
expense. Fiveth.ius.ind feet of piling
have already been d.iven at a cost
of double the price paid for the land.
When the Gould family is not aug
mented by friends it includes Mr.
and Mrs. Gould, their two daugh
ters, Helen aud Annie, aged 10 and
5, and the four sous, Gorge,F A win,
Howard and Frank.
l'uotngasm Node Statue in the Capl
tl.
WxfHiNGTOs, May 23. When
,the Capitol building was openj-d to
vihitors this morning a quiet and
unobtrusive-looking man about 'Zo
years of age, was in waiting at the
rotunda door, lie entered with the
little group of eightseers and made
his way to tbe stairway leading to
the dome. In this dark retreat the
stranger removed every article of
clothing and a few minutes later
ran out into tbe rotunda in a per
fectly ude etate. Mounting the
circular marble elab that marks the
centre of the rotunda the man struck
a classic attitude and posed motion
less ai a statue. A number of visi
tors were in the rotunda. Among
them woe a lady, who beat a hasty
retreat Capitol policemen made a
rush for tbe nude visitor, enveloped
his form in a waterproof cloak, and
hustled him down into the base
ment. His discarded wardrobe was
Fathered together, and the man,
after being partially dressed, was
taken away in the patrol wagon,
lie made no explanation of hia con
duct, but was evidently insane.

Clpatra" Meeting with Adonle.
Mr. U.S. Fuller describes in the
New Yoik Tribute the arrival at
the Central Park Menagerie of a
young tigress captured last winter
in India. The animal was sent from
Calcutta with view to providing a
companion for Adonis, the tiger of
the Cntral Park collection, who had
been pining for a mate. Describing
the meeting of the two animals, Mr.
Fuller Eays :
Adonis, the Bridegroom, is a na
tive American Bengal tiger. He
was born and raised iu captivity,
and has attained a siz not usually
obtained in the forests. Within the
space of two years he has been twice

companion was capuve-norn, nae
himself. She died after giving birth
to a litter of whelps. The second
pined in confinement, and died a
few weeks after her arrival. Cleo
patra is the finest specimen of the
three, and the vounsrest ; when the
case containing her had been placed
in the Carnivora building, Adonis,
who had been pacing with a mourn
ful step to and fro in his cage, eyed
it expectantly, and began to lick his
coat, the animals in adjoining ca
ges looked on with curiosity, the hy
enas sending forth discordant yells
at intervals. Cleopatra moved un
easily in her case. The pine coating
was stripped off. and the case was
lilted by a dozen men and placed on
a level with the cage door of the tiger.
Adonis retreated to the further end.
The iron gates were lifted, and Cleo
patra bounded lightly into the more
spacious apartment, ana looiteu
around. Iter first glance tell upon
Adonis and she opened her mouth
and spit at him like a cat. Adonis
opened his mouth and both tigers
yelled in unison like a hundred cats
on a Lack fence. The African lion
opposite began to snort and bellow.
The other lions and honeses roared
and rushed about their cages, trying
to peep through the ".ratines. The
hvenas and leopards swelled the
chorus, and the fifteen
elephants I
outside increased the din until it
was ear splitting.
When tne spectators looked to see
the beasts rueh upon each other in
fury, Adonis suddenly ceased his
cries and stretched himself at full
length at the feet of his mistress.
Shs spit at him again, and walked
to the other side of the cage. Adon
is repeated his action, but Cleopatra
did not appear to sen him. fetie
climbed on the tree stump in the
centre of the cage, stretched her fall
length and tore off the bark in long
strips, all the time purring in a deep
bass. After the keepers had given
the animals a supper of horseflesh
Cleopatra became leu coquettish,
aud looked at Adonis occasionally.

him to endeavor to arrange nn ar

been unable to comply with his
instructions, owing probably, to
the difficulty of securing an inter
view with lytiub l'acha, the I ur
kish commander. The Greek Cabi
net is in session at Athens and
great excitement prevails in tbe
capital.
A dispatch from Athens, Greece,
eays a truce was effected at noon
to-day and there has been no fight
ing eince that time. The casualties
are heavy on both sides. An inter
view between the Turkish and
Greek commanders has been arrang
ed for 5 o'clock on Mondy morning,
when an endeavor will be made to

Clerka ia Sboa Stores.
"Most men are very inquisitive
when they enter a shoe store," said
a salesman in a big store to a New I
York Mail and rjrtst reporter,
and if there is a woman within view
trying on a shoe the performance is
sure to receive their closest attention.
But they would get over that seon
if they were around very much, and
if they bad to wait on tbe customers
themselves they would soon be bor
ed. At this store, however, we have
women clerks, as you see, and the
men are relieved from their roman
tic duty, il you insist upon viewine
it in that light"
"How are these women doing as
clerka ?"
"Oh, pretty well, but as yet we
regard it simply an experiment, al
though we have had them quite a
while now. It is simply a question
of business policy, and if it shall ap
pear that a majority of our lady cus
tomers prefer their own eex they
will be retained : otherwise not. I
myself am inclined to think that
there is a large demand for women
clerks in this line, and that particu
lar stores will always have them, al
though 1 do not anticipate that all
the Btores will do so, by any means."
"Do most ladies, then prefer wom
en clerks?"
"Net by any means. It requires
a great deal of strength in hand and
arm to force a close fitting shoe
snugly into place, and a man can do
that much better than a woman.
But some women are so prudish that
it makes tnem nervous to nave a
man fussing around their feet that
way, and then there are others who,
itbout being the least bit silly
about the matter, are so genuinely
modest that they dislike tbe assis
tance of a man. But there are a
great many others who tell their
iriends how annoying it is to be com
pelled to have a man serve them in
a shoe store who really enjoy tbe
'annoyance,' and who will keep a
handsome young clerk working over
them until he is all worn out, long
after they have actually made up
their minds what to purchase. This
is what makes a shoe clerk swear
to himself, and it is only a very
green specimen who does not become
disgusted. I think, therefore that
some places will always have wom
en clerks and others men. Some
stores have tried the experiment of
keeping both, but even a lady who
decidedly prefers to have a gentle
man wait on her does not like to se
lect a young man when there is a
woman clerk standing by, and she
will probably take pains to avoid
that store another time."
"How do the male clerks regard
the introduction of the women ?"
"Generally with entire favor, un
les it happens to c.iue the loss of
their positions. Almost any old
clerk would rather wait on a man
than a woman. It takes a great
deal more time and trouble and
hard work to serve a woman than a
man. A man usually knows what
he wants, and is easily satisfied. A
woman merely knows what she does
not want, and as that embraces
about everything in the store it is
simply a choice of evils to be made
after much labor and worry. Of
course the clerk is blamed for any
mistake the customer finally makes.
Yes, I think the men are perfectly
willing that the women clerks should
attend to the women."
A Firfct CIoks Teacher.
We copy a portion of an excellent
address, by the Ilev. Dr. Moore, de
livered in Brooklyn some time eince
in aid of the erection of a new build
ing for the Adelphi Actdemy :
"Having spent some of the best
years of my life as an instructor, I
think I may, without egotism, claim
some knowledge of what a first-class
teacher is worth. I think I know
something about the difficulties of a
teacher's profession. I know some
thing of the delicacy of the material
on which he has to work, and of the
wonderful results which he is ex
pected to produce.
I believe it requires u rarer combi
nation of excellence for a first-class
instructor than for any other profes
sion on earth. And when vou find
a man who has a genuine sympathy
with children especially for boys!
who has the anility to enter into
their feelings, into their hopes and
fears and aspirations, into their pride
aud bovish sensitiveness, and into
all the elements that jo to make up
a boy's life; who has the power to
arouse the dormant energies in boys,
and awaken their minds to health
ful activity ; who has the power to
rightly direct these energies when
awakened; who has the ability to
subject boys to a thorough intellect
ual discipline, and at the same time
call out all the finer qualities of the
mind and heart, and cultivate their
social nfiVetions and inspire them
with noble aims and generous im
