On Chatham Btrcet , just Bbovo the on-
trnnco to the bridge , can bo Boon an old
nndwonthor etainwl building , Ita iron
shutters , thickly coated with chut and
rust , have boon drawn down thcao many
years , and from the general appearance
of the atructuro ono is load to believe that
Ita original owuota have long alnco boon
dead and forgotten and that its present
hoira are content to lot It remain as si
lent as the tomb. That building , how
oror , has oa romontico a history aa any
in the city. In it , nearly half a contuary
ago , Mr. Henry Hart , then a poor ,
struggling pawnbroker , and now presi
dent of the Third Avonao railroad com
pany , made the first dollar of hla present
collosual fortune of $5,000,000. The
old Weather-beaten sign
is still upon the front of the building ,
but it la scarcely legible , and in a few
years must bo taken down in order to
shield passers-by from injury by its fall
' " 8-
Mr. Hart arrived in thu city from
London In 1835 , and hia worldly posses
sions when , fcioudlcsB and alone , he
stopped from the atoerago of that Amer
ican packet , can bo bolter imagined than
described. With all the thrift of his
race , combined with a pertinacious deter
mination to Buccood , and casting his
eyes about the then straggling town , ho
noticed that the elder Simpson had a
monopoly of the pawhbroking businoa.
Yonng Hart had scraped together n few
dollars in London and ho decided to open
in opposition shop to Simpson , For a
long time , however , it was an uphill
itrugglo. The Simpsons wore very pop
ular , genial and obliging , and not toq
grasping , while young Hart was un
known , and with a limited capital ho was
lot in in a position to grant the extend-
id accommodation that hia powerful rival
eras.
eras.As an instance of the popularity of the
Simpson establishment , old theatre-goers
recall to-day that antiquated "chestnut"
which every minstrel ohow from that day
to this haa inflicted upon its audience :
In a garden love ocono a strapping negro -
gro , wiih a mouth like the Mammoth
Ottvo , would gently murmur to his Dinah :
"Say , honey , my heart am broken. "
Dinah would smile most excruciatingly
at her ardent swain and sweetly say :
"Oh , Sambo , don't take it to Hart ;
take It to Simpson. "
Thia waa thought very funny at the
imo , and it probably was , but ono would
vish to have hia life insured before ho
lorpotratod such a joke nowadays.
This little incident , however , well il- (
ustratod the opinion in which the two ;
mwnbroklug shops wore held , and also [
orvo to show the odds with which Mr
lart contended. Ho , however , atrug-
led along , and it waa not long before the
eke which was originated to injure him ,
> ocamo directly beneficial to him. Ho waa
lublicly advertised by it and those in
iced of money accommodation soon
ipund their way to hla doora. From that
time , Mr. Hart advanced rapidly , and as
roar by year wont by bo accumulated on
mmenao fortune. Ho early appreciated
ho value of the Third Avenue railroad
roportyand at its inception , was among
bo largest subscribers of its stock. His
larly investment in this property led
lim to purchase much real estate along
ho road. The two ventures became so
mmonaoly profitable that ho abandoned
ho pawnbroking business , although ho
LOS never disposed of the property which
ras the scone of hla early struggles , and
von for several years after ita doora had
eon closed ho continued to reside , 03 of
Id , in the upper portion of it. >
In 1808 Mr. Hart became largely in
orostod in the Pacific Mail Steamship
ompany. Ho became ono of its largest
tookholdors , and has boon a powerful
iroctor In its management. Despite the
pa and downs the company has had and
ho vicissitudes through which it has
lassod Mr. Hart has never lost faith in
lu ultimate value of the property. At
ho recent election ho cast votes which
hewed him to bo the largest individual
tookholder in tno company.
During all thcao years Mr. Hart has
opt the word thrift constantly before
is eyes , and yet ho has boon personally
beral tud has given to many Now York
liarities irrespective of scot or donomi-
ation. Ho has , quito naturally , taken
deep and active interest in the schools ,
capitals mi' ! asylums directed by those
his faith.
Mr. Hart , although sixty-five years [
Id , as ho walks down Wall street does
it look a day moro than fifty , if that.
a is remarkably short in stature , but
ioka like a mtmaturo Palatal ! ' , and gives
10 kho impression that the pleasures of
iblo have not bean neglected in his pur-
lit of wealth. Ho wears a Venetian
card , which is anowwhito , haa laughing
res , a ruddy complexion and his dress is
milieus without ostentation. Ho still
stains a alight London accent.
Mr. Hart's mansion is at No. 730
ludiaon avouuo. It is a solid structure ,
ud its appointments' and surrounding
afloat the Unassuming manners of its
lastors. Meanwhile the old Chatham
troot shop still stands with its dust and
list , and thouch on the verge of dissolu-
ion , as probably many of its early pa- 1
rons were , it is , nevertheless , a monument
ment to the remarkable sagacity and do-
orminod industry.

Aa to being beforehand in the matter
f nailing Iho Irunk or trunks to the 11
railway station , there is much to bo
iilncd tor ourselves and for others prao- '
ioing that virtue. Particularly ia this
ho ca o jaat now when auch batalllons of
runks ore moving by every train. Two
r three acoro of trunka galling to the
itation just at train lime means ono or t
ther of two things : cither the train must
je delayed to got them aboard or the
jai/gigo must bo left behind to take
loino following train. This latter ia the i
thing which uiually happona when the
baggage Is late.tfor no experienced rail
way ofllcial will , if ho can help it , take
tbo numerous rleka that follow the lato.

not atop him , and should not , If the
train la delayed then it and all persons
apon it are under diwd vantages from the
itart and danger ia now and then the
inpwii on of such disadvantages. There-
fore have the trunka ready in good season -
son , BO aa to reach thcro say twenty or
fifteen minutes at the very least , before
the hour and the minute for the train to
start.
Don't have trunka of the Noah's Ark
or dog-house style of dimension if you
can possibly avoid it , No person who
indulges In them aa any fair plea fur a
scold at the baggage-smashers. They are
simply unmanageable at times by a single
man , however atrong and doxtoroua ho
may bo. They will slip and come down
smash ; and at the very best they are
aovoro atrainsa on the much-abused and
not always justly abused men who have
to handle them. Independently of the
baggage-man , however , you have your
ywn personal interest in the matter of
having your trunks of the moro easily
handled kind. It la no trifle to have a
trunk full of holiday clothoa buratod open
and strewn about on the platform at a
railway station because of a fall brought
about by ita own size and weight ,
whether the fall waa caused by
the difficulty of handling it or by
actual carelessness. It is moro
likely to happen in the former than in
the latter , and it does so happen. Misa
Snnau Anthony lot a good example In
this matter. She had moro apparel to
carry on a long journey than would go in
ono trunk , nnloss it wan a very big ono ,
and so she got two. The baggage-man
on a western railroad proposd to charge
her extra for the second trunk. She re
plied that she had not as much Tf eight in
the two moderate-sized and easily han
dled trunka as was in any ono of the big ,
unwieldy ones standing about the plat
form , and she asked the baggage-master :
"Would yotfrathor have it in ono strain
ing load to lift than in two that anyone
could easily toss about1' ? ' "No , " ho said ,
"butldinn'tthinkofthat.1 , "Well , I
did.1' said Susan ; "it's a sayo to you. "
Those two trunks were then promptly
passed without any extra charge ; and it
is eafo to soy that they were much loss .
exposed to smash either by accident or
the "don't-caro-whother-tho-dog-houso
gota-smashod-or-uot" fooling with which
such a horse load is tackled by the over
taxed strength and skill and temper of
the baggage handler. The lost point to
bo remarked upon is that all baggage
should bo marked so as to distinguish it
from all other. Did anyone over hoar of
a trunk with the owner's name , and
town , cityor village upon it being sold
at auction \mong the unclaimed bag
gage which tho- railway companies
nave to auction off at intervals to got
rid of and to comply with the law ? Thia
M ono of the things which don't happen
or , if it does , it is amongst the rarest
of occurrences. The reason is that the
stray hunk has that upon ItwhicM points
out the owner and brings trulk and
nwnor together again oven tbjough it
may bo after many daya. And moro than
that , Iho name helps to arrest the trunk
an its wanderings and prevents it from
jotting very far astray. So mark your
baggage , even though it bo only a hand-
latchol , a shawl-strap bundle or a paper
parcel , if thorn's anything in it you don't
nrant to lose. j

AD a reporter passed ono of these mot
ley collections of birds , fish and shells
a veritable sea-curiosity shop ho noticed
several email boys trying to abstract
something from two tin cans at the door.
As ho drew near the boys loft , but the
goldfish remained.
"Can you , " said he , entering the atoro
and addressing the proprietor , "aparo
the time togivo mo a liltlo information
about RoldDsh ? Where do they como
from ? "
"From the Sandwich Islands and from
China , " was the reply.
"Which are considered the finest ? "
"Well , there's not much choice. " an
swered the proprietor ; ' 'tho Chinese
goldfish , " pointing to ono tank , "besides
having the largest fan-tails are much big
ger than these wo are able to got from
the Sandwich Islands. Yon see how
small they aro. The natives oat the full *
grown fiah. "
"How do you got them up hero ? "
"In largo tin cans , and wo often lese
several hundred fish out every thousand ,
BO wo don't make a great deal on them
after nil , A can tips over in the night ,
and when UTe fact la discovered , why the
fish have been lying around out of water
for several hours and are either dead or
dying. "
FOOD ron THE nan.
"Ia there any danger of their starving
to death ? Do you feed them , or do they
catch flies for a living ? "
"Thoy must bo fed some and the wa
ter changed , aa wo do up bore every
} thor day if the can or globe ia small ,
inco a week for a tank. "
"What do yon food them on , cracker
: rumba ? "
"No , " replied the fish fancier , "for uu-
ess the water is changed every day the
lour will begin to ferment and make
.ho water sour. That the fiah can't
itand. There comes a special food for
horn , niado principally of rico and bnl ,
if conrao , you can't expect mo to glvo it

ooks like , " opening a box and display Ing

LOW they go for it , " crumbling a shoot
if it over the tank , and instantly every
ish waa at the surface greedily swallow-
ng every fragment within roach.
"Do they vor fight ? "
"Not a great deal , though sometimes
rhon a now fish is put into the tank the
thora sot upon him , lash him with their
n * , chase him around , bite him and fin-
Uy kill him. But there Is another thing
a regard to what goldfish oat. They are
ory fond of the fungus which forms on
ho sides of the tank and on the shells
nd atones in an aquarium. Ladies make
Croat mistake in always cleaning out
heir globes , polishing thorn until they
ro as clear as crystal. They do not give
bo fungus a chance to crow. "

"They depends upon several conditions .

The top of the stairway ia gracefully
and skillfully wrought into a circle , and
the ceiling and canopy are of cast iron ,
richly pannolod and ornamented , the
canopy being ono of the moat unique
outings of the kind in America. It ia so
light and graceful that it ia scarcely pos
sible to conceive that it is composed of
such rigid material as iron. It ia stated
that the cost of the stairway complete
will bo $100.000. Similar stairways
will bo erected in each of the four earn
ers of the now City hall.

Boston Advertiser.
Thus far this season a stranger coming
to Boston and being told that owing to
the change * n standard time it was Octo
ber hero , won d find little in the temperature -
aturo to uuueuoivo him. In the midst of
such coolness it is instructive to recall
the frightful heat of past years. In 027
A. D. , according to a French periodical ,
the heat waa so great in Franco and Ger
many that all springs dried up ; water became
came ao scarce that the people died of
thlrat. In 879 work in the fields had to bo
3'ivon np ; agricultural laborers persisting
in their work were struck down in a few
ninntos , so powerful was the sun.
[ n 993 , the sun's rays were 'BO
iorco that vegetables burned up aa under
ho action of fire. In 1000 rivers ran
Iry under the protracted heat ; the fish
loft dry in heaps and putrified in a
ow hoars. The stench that ensued pro.
lucod the plaguo. .Men and animals
ronturing in the sun , In the summer of
1032 , fell down dying , the throat parched
iO a tinder and the blood rushing to the \
iraln. In 1152 , not only did the rivers
Iry up , but the ground cracked on every
ido and became baked to the hardness of
tone. The Rhino In Alsace nearly dried
ip. Italy was visited with terrific heat
n 1139 , and vegetation and plants were
turned up. During the battle of Bela in
200 there were moro victims made by
ho sun than by weapons ; men fell down
unstruck in regular rows. The summer
if 1207 was also BO vote ; there was an ab-
elute dearth of forago. In 1303 and
.304 the Rhino , Loire and Seine
an dry. In 1015 the heat
hroughout Europe became oxces-
ive. Scotland suffered particularly in
.025 ; men and beasts died in scores.
? ho heat in several departments during
ho summer of 1805 waa equal to that in .
glass furnace. Meat could bo cooked
ly merely exposing it to the sun. Not
soul dare venture out between iioon
nd 4 p. m. In 1817 many shops had to
lose ; the theatres never opened. their
bars for several months. Not a dop of
rater fell during six months. In 1753
ho thermometer rose to 118 degrees. la
.779 the heat at Bologna was BO great
hat a great number of people were
tiflod. There was not sufficient air for i
ho breath , and people had to take rof-
ige under ground. In July , 1793 , the
teat became intolerable. Vegetables
rere burned up , and fruit dried upon the
roes. The furniture and woodwork
i dwelling-houses cracked and
pllt up ; meat went bad In an hour. The
Ivors ran dry in several provinces dur-
ig 1811 ; expedients had to be devised On
) r the grinding of corn. In 1822 a pro- trl ne
racted heat was accompanied by storms eu
nd earthquakes ; during the drouth lo-
'
Ions of mice overran Lorraine and Alice ' 1

ice , committing incalculable damage. In Uu
B32 , the heat brought about cholera in
'ranee ; 20,000 persons fell victims to
10 visitation in Paris alone. In 1840
10 thermometer marked 125 dogreoa in a I
10 Bun. Finally , the summers of 1859 , Ctv (
300 , SCO , 1870 , 1874 , etc. , although
cceasively hot , were not attended by any
iaaator.

I notice eye-glasses seem indespenaiblo

cannot bo a great study , because the
