He, if it is a man, will generally start a society in Ms town, and wHl call it the United Association of Writers, or some such, and it will have presidents and boards and committees, and all those things, and will look on itself as solemnly as the King looked on his coronation. The purpose of the society will be chiefly to hold meetings and abuse publishers, the one has a more definite object, in that it wants government to reduce the postage on returned manuscripts. These societies derive a vast comfort from viewing the struggles of earlier authors. In the papers that the members read to one another the others supine and unresisting in corners, or behind the door they joy in telling how Goldsmith, aud Johnson and Fielding, and Bunyon and Foe, and nearly everybody else who came to something after he was dead, delighted In the neglect and even contempt of his contemporaries and was always in debt and often in jail.

This is a little hard on the trade of authorship, which has gone through a good many changes since Shakspear's time, but it Is a consolation to those now living, since it is QUAINT SUMMER HOME OF COL. T. (Special to the Eagle.) Huntington, L. September 13 Of the hundreds of dwellers in the boroughs of Brooklyn and Manhattan who have summer homes on Long Island there is probably not one whose temporary home is anywhere near as old as that of Colonel Timothy S. Williams, vice president of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company.

Colonel Williams occupies the en cient Lloyd manor house, on the north shore of Lloyd's Harbor. This ancient dwelling was built as long ago as 1764, but does not begin to show its age, as the saying is. It is delightfully located and is in all respects one of the most charming country homes on the picturesque and beautiful north shore. The house is a fine specimen of the architecture of the period and (he changes that have been made upon it from time to time have not been permitted to detract from the elegant simplicity of its original design. It commands a fine view of Lloyd's Harbor, Huntington Bay and the Sound beyond and is approached by a broad drive, winding through a grove of magnificent primeval oaks, said to be the finest anywhere on Long Island.

The history of this ancient homestead, one 1 5 monthly payments. a sort of an assurauce that they, too, ars neglected geniuses. Neglect proves the genius. Usually these serious persons graduate as newspaper men, it they are not too advanced, because scrub work ou a country weekly pays better than literature pays nine in ten of the men who make It, and when they get into journalism the solemnity and conceit arc taken out of them. 9 You are not even allowed to dress in opalescent fancies the gathering of the Finnegan Association on Its annual chowder riot, and no city editor will thank you for pouring poetry into a column of Wall street statistics.

Poetry takes space that is valuable. The mark of the customary author is to be unserious, but it is hard for the literary would be to understand that. The would be may not call his work Choice Stuff, as one author does, but he believes that other folks ought to call it that, and believes that they will, when they" have a chance to know it. It is a pointer for the would be that if he is ever invited to spend an evening with a company of real authors, say, at the Authors' Club, he should not ask the men ha meets there if they are soaring to sublimer heights than ever. If he will say, off hand, like.

In October, 1679, Lloyd became the sole owner of the property, having purchased from the executors of Thomas Hart the latter's portion, for which he paid 200, and from that day to the present the estate, which' had been known as the lordship and manor of Queens village, has been called Lloyd's Neck.

James Lloyd died on August 16, 1863. leaving three children. His will bequeathed the pioperty to them in equal" portions. Henry Lloyd purchased the interest of his brother and sister, became sole owner and tock cp his abode on the neck in 1711, dying there la 1763. He left the property to his four sens, Henry, John, Joseph and James The first named espoused the cause of the crown when the Revolution broke aud fled to Nova Scotia.

John and Joseph Heated in Cornecticut, and James, who was a physician, established himself in Boston. When the war was closed the Lloyd estate was confiscated and sold, but was purchased by John Lloyd, son of John first named. It was long in the possession of the Lloyd family and kept intact, but in recent years portions of it have been but portions of it yet remain in the possession cl descendants of the Lloyd family. The property was taken possession of by the British troops during the Revolution and on it was erected a fort. This work was done under the direction of Benjamin Thompson (afterward known as Count Rumford).

While the British forces were garrisoned on the neck, they cut and used, or disposed of. nearly 100,000 cords of wood, but the growth of the timber was so rapid that in comparatively recent years there were sold annually from the Lloyd's Neck forests over 1,000 cords. There is on the neck a practically inexhaustible mine of fine white clay and a bed of yellow ochre. The soil Is fertile and some almost phenomenal crops have been produced 6a It by the various owners. There is on the property the Lloyd's family vault, in which are burled the remains of Henry Lloyd the first and those of his two wives, as well as the bodies of a large number of his descendants.

The names, ages, of those whose remains rest within the vault are Inscribed on a white marble tablet at its entrance. There are many notable country homes in Suffolk County, but few around which centers more of historic interest than the Lloyd manor house.

At the Atlantic Y'acht Club, Sea Gate, this Saturday evening, there will be a promenade concert by the Amicitia Military Band, with the club house and grounds illuminated. known outside of the Natick family. Awhile ago the wife accepted an invitation to some social function that was too swell for the colonel, so he begged off and said he would stay in and read and smoke and turn in early, as Mrs. Natick had a carriage and could come home safely without an escort.

The colonel really did as he said he would: Spent the evening with the cat and his pipe and his book and his slippers and was in bed at a reasonable hour. He was awakened by the roll of the carriage up the walk, and he said to himself, "Now I'll give the old lady a sample of her own style." The dame came rustling into the chamber, bringing an air of perfume, and began to take off her jewels, when she heard a sob from the bed. Turning, she saw the colonel, with his knuckles at his eyes, his form shaken by grief. "Th this is the way I'm treated," he blubbered. here I've been sitting up for you till this hour and I'm all worn out for want of sleep.

I'm going back to mother. That's what I'm going to do. You've just broken my heart, you have. Boo boo!" Was Mrs. Colonel Natick confused or alarmed? Not in the least.

She said, all ri', ol' feller. Go (hie) back to yer mother. What the blazes shpose I care. Get up an' run along now, if you' wanter. (Hie.) How'd I get in here with my spurs on? Whoop! Who the bloody blazes wants me to go bed with spurs on? Huh? M' dear, I wish you'd ring for somebody to (whoop) come an' take these spurs off me.

Hullo! Got two lookin' glashes, haven't yer? What th' devl want o' two lookin' glasses? Can't you break one with that face? (Hie.) Get up ol' boy an' have anoth whi whlsh whisky 'n gin. Ain't had a drink fer fif teen mints. (Hie.) 'Sno use; got to turn in with these spurs." And with that the dame hung her hat on a bust of Venus, put her waist on the center table, her corset on the mantelpiece and tried to hang her gloves on the gas. And Colonel Natiek's eyes kept bulging out, bigger and bigger, and his tongue kept growing more and more unable, and he hadn't a word to" say on any subject when the light went out. Also he got in middling early for several nights after.

Among all the solemnities of this land there are none so solmen as the literary would be. The man or woman who has had Hempstead scascn has started off brilliantly with the visit of the young of Marlborough to her mother's country place, and from now on, for some weeks to cor. the Long Island Plain, will be cue cf the chief centers of metropolitan society.

Westbury, Wheatley Hills, all this excellent country' of the fashionables, was never in better trim and promise. It looks as if hunting was to be a very keenly contested sport again. This is one oT the features of this "suburban season," probably it will bo its chief feature. The fox is now being pursued with much avidity on the Long Island Plain: the country places nil have their house parties: the hunters I have been 'jplloped until they are in good form for carrying over country, and the packs of hcunds are in good condition.

An automobile highway, a genuine speedway for motor vehicles, planned for Long Island, from Long Island City to Roslyn, is the latest news, and a word of this arouses the highest interest. A road of this sort, to be private and for automobiles alone, is the Lous Island nomenclature is interesting. I Roslyn comes to the fore with a citizen whose name is Napoleon Forget.

THE FI5KE H0U6E AT ONECK Brooklyn social life. For twenty years it has lived at 184 Joralemon street, and here Miss Atwater and her brother, H. Day Atwater, have grown up. Few Heights girls of the present generation are more attractive than Miss Louise Atwater, and few are better known. Mrs.

Atwater was long a prominent member of the noted Ladies' Aid Association of the Homeopathic Hospital of the early eighties, and one of the most efficient aides to Mrs. Camden C. Dike, practically always its president. Miss Atwater's fiance is a Park place man, a eon of Mr. and Mrs.

John D. Snede ker. He is a brother of Miss Mary Snedeker, who has been for some years one of the leading figures in the Packer Alumnae as well as many other organizations. Miss Jessie R. Murphy of Clinton avenue is another of the engaged girls of September.

scoop very shallow holes (the general ot division who had effected their capture afterward reported that "they had lain down on their and were given twenty minutes extra in which to complete the work. Before the time had expired a government force strong enough to rout the revolutionists arrived and the survivors of the captured regiment were saved. Moral: Never say die in a Latin American revolution. The observant traveler along the Atlanta avenue division of the Long Island Railroad cannot fail to notice that, while a great number of men are working very hard in the construction of the tunnel beneath that thoroughfare, there are many others who devote their hours to watching them. The latter arc voluntary, not paid, inspectors, and they seemingly have unlimited time on their hands.

They are there before 0 o'clock in the morning aud remain on duty until nearly sundown, seemingly happy, though absolutely Idle mere "lookers on in Vienna." If, as the old saw has it, "Time is money," the men in question must indeed be wealthy. A similar condition of affairs is noticed on Washington street. The work of building the addition to the Eagle Building is watched by a number of unpaid inspectors. The latter are not as numerous as those who throng Atlantic avenue, but that is because the accommodations are not so good. If there were more room the number would be large) The scriptural query, "Why stand ye idle all the day long?" suggests itself.

This habit of lounging about work upon the part of idlers led to an interesting discussion by a few close observers of city life. The question was, Who composed these loungers? It was settled to the satisfaction of the disputants, at least, that a portion were of the employed who were cither applicants for work on the job or had been promised work when opportunity presented it. while of the remainder at least per cent, was made up of men usually employed and having a day off were attracted to the spot, by curiosity as to the work, a curiosity excited by reading of It in the press on days when they were occupied. This conclusion was based on an observance, more or less justified by uscortained data, that in a large community in New York 5 per cent, of the regularly employed are idle every day and are to be found at Interesting or curious i sew no bad idea and will do much for developing the speed of vehicles. What is of greatest importance about it.

it will take racing off the public highways, where it has no appropriateness, to say nothing of the danger involved. Private land has been secured for this stretch of automobile road, which is to be twenty miles in length, and William K. Vanderbilt, who is its chief enthusiast, says it will be commenced shortly. No details of the precise route have as yet been furnished, but it is understood that it will run from the Long Island City ferry. There will be provision for spectators along its entire length.

The latest news from Hempstead is that the Duchess of Marlborough will sail for England this coming Tuesday. September, as is usual, proves the month months for engagement announcements. Several that are of great interest await mention to day. Perhapsthe engagement that will be the most talked about is that of Mr. and Mrs.

Henry D. Atwater's daughter, Miss Louise S. Atwater, who is to marry Edwin L. Snedekcr, also of Brooklyn. The Atwater family has been long and well known in Lookout.

school: there are plans of local theaters, portraits of 700 leading business men, bankers, lawyers, aud so on. A notable feature is the street directory, which not only gives the direction of the thoroughfares, but enables one to locate objects of interest on any given street banks, churches, hotels, parks, cemeteries, arsenals, bridges, fountains and the more important shops and offices. Quite a work of art is the Hartford Directory. They are going to shoot a general in Hayti because he set fire to a town. We always did believe that this three cornered revolution in the Black Republic would result in bloodshed if it only lasted long enough.

However, the announcement of poor Chlcoye's impending fate recalls a story of tropical revolutionizing which is all the more curious because it happens to be true. How do we know it is true? Because it Is quoted on the authority of Richard Harding Davis, who could, but wouldn't, tell a lie. Once upon a time there was a row of some sort on the Isthmus of Panama. One party of revolutionists in revoluting about the disturbed district overpowered a regiment of government troops about eleven strong. Courts martial being needless formalities, the regiment was sentenced to death, in spite of the strong protests lodged with the revolutionary leader by the four field marshals who were among the prisoners and who would have considered thjrty days in jail sufficient penally for having supported a tyrannical administration.

It was near lunch time when the capture was made and the victorious column halted for grub and a siesta before inflicting the extreme penalty. While they were eating, the prisoners, wbn were not supposed to care for any lunch, were told they might spend the brief space remaining to them on earth in digging graves for their own accommodation. Only two out of the eleven accepted the suggestion; the other nine simply said, "What's the use," in Spanish, of course, and were promptly shot as soon as the revolutionists had finished eating. The first, and second grave digger had only managed to The daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

Robert H. G. Murphy of 312 Clinton avenue and the sister of Miss Florence G. Murphy, she has announced her engagement to Lambert Suydam, of Manhattan, the son of Mr. and Mrs.

James Suydam. This is the first important engagement in the Hill set for several months. Mr. Suydam will be recalled as one nf Henry Rutledge Simmons' and Miss Leah Longeman's ushers. There is not a little to be said about the weddings of the fall.

Mrs. Winchester Brit ton's only unmarried daughter, Miss Kate Brltton, will wed Samuel Willard Bridges, on October 22 (Wednesday). October 14 (the preceding Tuesday) will be marked by the marriage of Miss Ella Derby Canu and Frank Sawyer Hight. Mr. Hight lives in Washington, though he comes from Winthrop, and is a son of Mr.

and Mrs. Henry O. Hight of that town. Miss Cann is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

George W. Cann, resident at 442 Grand avenue. This will be a noon wedding and a house affair. It will be witnessed by relatives only and no reception will follow it. The Rev.

Dr. Thomas M. Cann of Scranton, who is Miss Cann's grandfather, will marry her. points through interest, to be added to the Idlers of the town. This is particularly so in vacation times of the year.

Many instances are known in which the man employed fifty one weeks takes his six days' vacation in traveling to points of interest in the city he has been reading about during the year. The example of Alfred Lyttleton of the English House of Commons, who refused to take the fee allotted to him as a member of the arbitration tribunal appointed to determine the merits of the dispute between Robert R. Reid and the government of Newfoundland, is one that might well be imitated. Mr. Reid is a Montreal contractor of great wealth who, for his work in completing a railway across the island of Newfoundland from Port aux Basques on the shores of Cabot Strait to the capital city of St.

John's, was granted certain enormously valuable concessions by the colonial government. The use which he afterward proposed to make of these concessions led to serious differences with Sir Robert Bond's administration and ultimately became an issue at a general election in which Mr. Reid and his friends arrayed themselves against the government. The net result of the fight was that Reid was hopelessly beaten, but the government afterward agreed to settle its differences with him before an arbitration court. As the government's representative oti that court Mr.

Lyttleton was selected. He did his work faithfully and well, but when he found that a large sum awaited him for his services in assessing the value of the Reid concessions he declined to take it on the ground that he had not earned any such munificent foe. We do not, offhand, recall many instances of such conscientiousness among men in pub He station, especially when the dimensions of the regard for duty done were fixed by the employing agencies. Mr. Lyttleton might almost be said to have created a precedent.

When he goes out at night his wife never knows at what hour he may be home which Is a most singular state of things, quite un of the oldest on Long Island, is most interesting. The neck known as Lloyd's was called by the Indians Caumsett and contains in all some three thousand acres of land.

It juts out into Long Island Sound between Huntington and Oyster Bay. About half of the neck is heavily timbered and the remainder Is cultivated. The neck was purchased from the Indians on September 20, 1654, from Ratiacan. Sagamore of Cow Harbor, by Samuel Mayo, Daniel Whitehead and Peter Wright. These men were among the early settlers of Oyster Bay and were evidently shrewd buyers, for they secured the entire tract in exchange for three coats, three shirts, two cuttoes, three hatchets, three hoes, two fathoms ot wampum, six knives, two pairs of stockings and two pairs of shoes.

If the knives, hatchets, were as sharp as the bargain driven by the Englishmen they could not have failed to do good service. On May 6, 1658, the purchasers above named sold out to Samuel Andrews for 100. A little more than two years later the property was again sold, Andrews having died. John Richhill was the purchaser and he in 166P disposed of the same premises to Nathaniel Sylvester Thomas Hart and Latimer Sampson, who paid 150. In 1668 Sylvester sold the property to his associates.

Later James Lloyd of Boston became the owner of a part of the neck through his wife.
