Belonned to One of the Oldest. Families in tho County Member of the Board of Education and of Many ol" Its Important Committees Something About tho Historic Zabrisltie Home stc uil. Dr. Job known, residents Straus' st Lloyd Zabriskie, one of th" be popular, and highly re Flatbush. died at Abraham i FuRon street vesit.

rdav af ternnon from paralysis of the ii while in the act uf paying a bill. His dcjui was a.4 expected as the nature and circumstances of It were shucking lo his family and Though he had not been in his usual go el health and spirits for the past fortnight, one of them had any idea that he w.nild be so suddenly called away. A little river two weeks ag.i lie was present at a social gathering in Flatbush and took an active part in the por lormaiice uf the musical programme which tilled out a portion of the evening. Someone then remarked that Dr. Zabriskie was a man of wonderful vitality for his age and seemed to find more joy In life than many a younger man.

He left his home at Church lane and Flatbush avenue about 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon to go to a downtown physician's office for treatment by electricity. He kissed DU. JOHN I.LlmIj ZAFtrUSKlH. llls "lfe KOod by as was his custom every hc thv lwusc if fr half an hour, and the sun had not yet set when she received the news of his death. The deceased was the oldest son of Dr.

John Barrea Zabriskie. who married Miss Abby Lefferts Lett of Flatbush. a member of one of the oldest families on Long Island, and died in 1S4S. John Lloyd Zabriskie was burn on August 2H. 1x31.

in the old house of the Zabriskie homestead, which stood until a few years ago at the corner of Flatbush avenue and Church lane, just in front of the present family residence. It had stood there fur two hundred and twenty live years, ami was the oldest house in Flatbush. His early education was acquired at. Erasmus Hall which famous Institution was at that time under the eharce of Dr. 1'amnbell.

enteied Columbia college and took a llu'rar; eonrse. After graduating from utiitiia he studied meuicme with Dr. J. M. In graham of Flatbush.

who hud been bis father's most intimate friend, and at the same time attended lectures in the New York Medical college. Iu 1MU he married Miss Eliza H. Garvin and their union has been a most happy one. The friends, of the dead man say that there was nit in all Brooklyn a home more refined, more Hospitable or more exemplary as to the purity and peacefulness of the family life than the Zabriskie homo. Although a busy physician Dr.

Zabriskie found time to indulge his fondness for music. He had a cultivatui voice anil was an accomplished performer on the violin. Ills sunny disposition, his kindness, sociability, his unaffected manner, his and piety, made him good friends everywhere. Said one who has been close to him all his life: "Al! who knew him loved him, and those who knew him best esteemed him most." The Rev. Dr.

C. L. Wells, pastor of the Dutch Reformed church in Flatbush, was seen weeping on the street by an acquaintance last evening. When asked for the course of his emotion the doctor said: "I have just lost my dearest friend." He meant Dr. Zabriskie.

Dr. Zabriskie stood high in bis profession. He was not a brilliant man In the accepted sens.0 of that term, but he was a thorough, painstaking physician. That. is what hi" colleagues say of him.

By reason of his tenderness and sympathetic nature his more presence in a sick room was healing. That Is what his patients say of him. He was all HOMESTEAD honored member of the Kings County Medical society, consulting physician at the Kings County hospital, member of the board of education, an chirr of the Dutch Ueform church and a member of the Knickerbocker Field club. Dr. Zabriskie was appointed a member of tho board ol education by Mayor Sehieren on No vember in p'lne of .1.

H. Dick who signed. lie was always actively iuterested tho city's educational life nnd after his appointment a strong worker in tho many committees ia wbP'h he held membership. At the time of ills deal he was on lie, following committees of tho board: Teachers, Flatbush schools: local of Public Schools Nos. 2 and 3: training school and the School of tho Homo for D.

stilut" Children. Tho board of education's regular November meeting was to bavo been held this nflernoon nt 4 o'clock. In consequence of Dr. Zabriskle'a death it is probable that no business will be transaclo but that after the presentation and pasaage of resolutions in his memory an ad will be taken until arter the funeral, which is expected to take place Thursday. The board's meeting will probably be held Friday afternoon at the usual hour.

Sands of JENNIE COOPER'S SUIT SETTLED. Jamaica, L. November 12 The suit of Jennie Cooper against Mr. Henry Fraz. of Richmond Hill, hor brother in law, for for services rendered in the caro of her sister, Mrs.

Frazier. was settled yesterday in Justice Ilcn drickson's court by the payment by Fra.ier of S7o to tbe plaintiff and her counsel tees and costs of court.

She came on at once and the cost of the trip in car fan a and other ncossnry ex peuaes was .160.

Shortly after she had reached hero she alleges that (die nsked hor brother in law for tho repayment of hor faro, that he then grossly insulted her and wanted to put hor out of dcors. Tu DIVIDE SOUTHAMPTON. THE SHINNF.t'OOK CAN A REHVF.S AGITATION OF THE SUBJECT. Sag Harbor, L.

Novombor 12 Thore has always been more or less talk about dividing Southampton town, and since the Shinneeock onnal was cut through aad the question of good roads has become prominent, the subject has been agitated more than ever. The idea originated from tho immlet of Brooklyn, a superb of Riverhead village, whose population is largely made up of colored people, and many of its pauprrt become a imrdn upon Southampton. Brooklyn Is nlso included with Ihe Kiverhead school district. Brinley D. Sleight of Sag Harbor, editor of tho Corrector, is one of those in favor of ceding the west end of Ihe town of Southampton to River head.

This Is what Mr. Sleight says upon the subject of a cross country road aud the division of Southampton town: "Wo believe in good roads nud the towns pav ing for ihem nu.i keeping them up. But this instance the benelk is almost entirely upon ihe part of Riverhead. The l'ie tlon of trade aud travel to the county sent from tile west part of this town would be great if the roads were first class. Unquestionably Riverheau Is the natural center, west of th hills aud this side oT tho Brookhaven line, it only that formkeu atreteh of wilderness could be wiped out.

The natural solution of the question Is the division of the town of Southampton. The west end should beiuug to and become a part of Riverhead. There is little or no identity of interest, between Southampton east and west of Shinneeock Hills. A natural barrier separates the two emln. An artificial watorway ithe Shinneeock canal) also murks the line.

Tre re Is a diversity of commercial interest nnd in many respects ihe peoplo dllTor. I have always held that tho community of interest socially, politically and commercially of the west eud of thta town is with Riverhead, Most of Riverhead's paupers are shoved over i the river into Southampton. They pel dom get boyond lhat immediate lo i ca'iitv except on eloc.on days, when they nt m. Thi is a matter of little but onl'v eoes iiieneo. to show that that locality is essential.

a part ol hiverlioad. If our neighboring town would take the burden of Brooklyn from the barrens It would roceive as a compensation nil that proaperous aud growiug stretch of country and population from SpeoDk lo Good Ground. On the other baud. South. impton, from Sag Harbor to tho canal, would make a snugger, more compact and connatural political division.

We don't know that this will ever be done, but wo know that it ought to be done." SOCIAL GATHERING POSTPONED. Tho meeting of the Winters' Night club of Flatbush, which was to have taken place this evening at the residence of tho Rev. Br. C. L.

Welle, pastor of the Dutch Reformed church, lias been postponed on account of tho death of Dr. John Lloyd Zabriskie, who was one of tbe most popular members of the club. JOHN FLANNIGAN'S COURTING, John Flanuigan. a messenger boy, employed iu the Knox hat factory, is in jail to day bo eause he took illegal means to cut out a rival iu love. The story came out in Justice Stiy rs' i court Ibis morning, where ho was held for ex nmination Flaauigaa and Jack Dennis, an overgrown cash boj in a dry goods store.

bavo been courting tho same girl, 1(1 year i old Sadie ood, of 'il Gates avenue, Jack was able to sport good clothes, bnt John had less money to spend ou his exterior. Sadie i told him that ehe. rather likod h.m, but thought lie ought to uress better. Yesterday at noon Joseph Goldberg, a workman in the hat factory. sent John for a can of leer and gave him a bill, as he had nothing smaller.

John weut to a noigbbor.ng saloon got tho beor, and on his way hack a dos Dcrate tomptation beget nim. It was to take the rig himaolf up ae a dude, call on Sadie and escort her to the theater. After that Jack wouldn't be in it. He went to hW hc mo at 1.701 Atiantie avenue, put ou hi best suit of clothes. Taeti ho visited several stores and bouirht UKtent leather shoes, kid gloves, a cane, a flashy necktie, an imitation diamond ring, ditto studs and scarf pin, nnd a flno black Derby bar.

Thus rigged out he called on Sadie and took her to a theater and they wound up tho mmrtnew'' THE ZARKlSKIii evening with an oyster sUDper and John went homo at midnight.

Strone. also of Flatbush. The earliest known ancestor or the Zabriskie family was Albreidt Zaboro tij. who was born In Poland in Di in and emigrated rrom Prussia to New York. He crossed the Atlantic In the ship Fox and landed in this country In the year It is remarkable that nearly all the prominent old residents of Flatbush recently deceased met sudden deaths.

Among them are J. Lou Vandcrbilt, who fell dead while talking to his wife: Lefferts who died in a rhalr in his library, reading a newspaper: James Lefferts. who while out for a drlva died In his carriage; Dr. J. M.

Ingraham. who died from the bursting of a blotn! vessel in his brain. Mrs. .1. Loll Yanderbilt, who also rlicd very suddenly.

The Zabriskie homestead was one or the old landmarks and was familiar to all the older resid. nts of Fialbush. Its peculiar construction, iha unique design and its substantial character was the wonder of the people Tor many years. The structure was first erected over two hundred and twenty five years ago. It was remodel many times, but some of theold stone and timber remained until l's final destruction in 1S77.

The whole front of the building consisted of a sixteen Inch brick wall, which was painted and striped with white. In l.s 17 a largo conservatory was added by Dr. John II. Zabriskie. In order to make the addition it was found necessary to remove the cellar stairway.

In its removal its unique construction was shown. The interior arrangements nf tbe house did not materially differ fmm the generality of the Dutch country farm houses. A FLATI.ANDS RUNAWAY. Mrs. Andrew Henrieks of last evening had a narrow escape from serious injury, aad perhaps death.

He luisband is doing engineering work at liorgen Bench, and about 5 o'clock every afti ruoouMrs. lleuricks drive over there to fetch him home. Yesterday eho had reached the corner of Flatbush avenue and Kings highway, when she noticed Contractor Fred. Larry of Reru'en Reach, who was about to get into a stage. He is an intimate friend of Mr.

Henri. ks, aud Mrs. Hi urieks nailed him and offered li 1 tu a sea: in her buggy. Mr. Lurry carried In his hands the two foot model of a yacht.

Aa ho pniiaed tho horse, which is young and spirited, latter jumped to one side, al n. oat upsetting tbe vehicle. Then he took the bit in his teeth and started off tearing pace. Mr. Larry, however, had a hold of the sldo bars of the i uggy and lie swung himself into it.

He took the lines from Mrs. ilenriaks, who was almost in a faint, but was unnnle to check tho horse. A trolley ear was coming down thy jrade from ihe, anhaltan Pencil railroad crossing at a hiu'h rate of speed. The horse toward tho track. Policeman slia, who wa standing la the middle of tho streot, piantod hlm p'dr square In the path of the runaway.

As Ihe horse sworved to one aide be caught it by the bridle and was dragged lor a short distance, but the collision which "ecnii inevitable; Was avoided. Refore the horse came to a stand still, Mr. Larry jumped and assisted the ofllcer to stoji it. Mrs. Heurieks was in a state of nervous prostration when she was taken from the buggy.

The Liebmnnn company has placed on exhibition, ut: the third Hoof of its Fulton street a picture thut is attracting wide notice, as it is remarkable in several ways. It occupies tie entire Fulton street front in the picture lopar: and is certainly very old and a remarkable example of what is without much doubt the Rubens school. It has beet, thirty years in storage in New York and was diseulnr oi from age. Since the Liebmann company secured the picture it has been restored to its original freshness ot c.dor. It i.s entitled "Abisrail Before David." The Israelite king, who is on his way to exact from Nadal.

Abigail's husband, a tribute of pr. ivisions 1. Irs Limishe troops, in return for defending Nadal's prop' rlv. is represented in armor standing beside his war horse, extend his scpter to tin kneeling Abigail. Nadal ha refused lo gran: the king's request and Abigail has hastened to meet David and his warriors, bringing abundance of food with her tinue servants.

The canvas is filled with figures of life si.e and the flesh tints, and drapery work are admirably handled. On a win flagon is paint 1 in profile the face uf Rubens with the hat. in which his pictures, represent him. There is no name on the picture, but it I.s thought that pupils uf Ilubetis may have painted Mr. Iii has purchased in Europe paintings vaiued at over and these will soon be addi to th" creditable display in the art reom of the company.

CAPTAIN BURNETT'S MONSTER EEL. FIFTEEN FEET LONG AND AS BIG AROUND AS A NAIL KEG. Southampton, I 1., November 12 The peo ple of Water Mill wore thrown into a state of excitement yesterday by the appearance of a monster eel or embryo sea serpHnt in Mocox bay. The bay was connected recently with tho ocean by a channel and it is supposed the hugh fish in seeking a quite spot to deposit its spawn entered tho bay. It was discovered bv Captaiu Luther D.

Burnett while running his eel po: last night. He was startled by a loud Itlssins noise and a dark shadow coming toward him on tho top of the water. vnn wiinin a lew ieet of his boat the monster gave a snort ami disappeared beneath tho water, lie captain had a good look at the strange visitor, however, and Ueacribes it us ueing very similar to tue sea serpent that has made its appearunce la other waters about Long Island, thougn not quite as large. He estimates that tho huge eel is fully fifteen feet in length and as large around as a nail It gavo him quite a seare and ai ho had enough eenng lor tue nijjht fie came home and told tho slory. His neighbors were greatly interested when the captain wove his yarn, and to day many peoplo have gone to tho bay to see If they eouid get a look at Captain Burnett's blir eel.

Captahj Burnett's veracity neroauoms is only equalled by his skill as a fisherman, and whatever he says the inhabitants of these wators ate prepared to assent to and vrify by affidavit if necossary. The toik is now that the ruoasler is to be protected from mercenary fishermen, so that in tho course of time he may reach a size which will eclipse that of auy other sea serpent in any other looalitv and help to spread tho fame of water Mill.
