•* » *> A Sntt Against the Executor*.
At a special session of the Supreme Court In Glens Falls yesterday the case of Kate Lydia Ide. an infant, by her guardian. William *r. Cowles. against Louis M. Brown and others, as executors of the estate of George W. Lee, was tried. The action Is to enforce In equity the specific performance o* a contract between George W. Lee and the plaintiff The bulk of Mr. Lees property, aggregating $300,000, by his will was baft m trust In the hands of his executors, Louis M. Brown and Jonathan M. Coolidge To
n f ' t ^ ? ' _ 2 _ _ ! 7K ***• h e I e f l a n annuity of $«00, which the executors might at their discretion increase to $1,500. To the-plaintiff. Kate L. Ide. he left a beouest of $5,000 if she should arrive at the age of twenty-one years. Among the wit nesses was Addison B. Colvin an uncle of the plaintiff. He related a conversation between himself and the testator Mr. Lee, ln which the latter stated that according to an agreement made with the witness* mother, he would eive th»
.child $20,000 and the house and contents If she should remain In the home The counsel for the defense made a motion for a dismissal of the complaint, and Justice Houghton denied the motion saying-"I find that the storV of Mr. Colvin a« to what took place B>WPen him and the deceased with reference to the plaintiff is true, and I find the facts in accordance with his statement if it comes in question." The counsel were given thirty days in which to prepare briefs. The attorneys for the plaintiff are Kellogg & King and for the defendants Stephen M Brown and Edgar T. Brackett.
site recommended in the report of the committee, and said that the erection of a steamer house there would affect the value of his and adjoining property. It was* the most valuable residence section of the city. He did not think that any of those present would care to have a steamer house adjoining their property if It would depreciate it, and for that reason, if for no other, he objected. He thought the appropriation would be an extravagant one. There were other lots that could be bought cheaper. The site proposed was not central, and was on the western border of the ward, which is growing east. He knew that the lot would soon be taken for the erection of a fine residence if the city does not purchase it.
E. W. Loth spoke in opposition to the site, and said he owned, property directly east, f i e was satisfied that the erection of a steamer house on the lot suggested would depreciate his property. "If they *re going to erect" a steamer house there I do n't want to live there," he continued. "The bunk rooms and the stable would come next to the windows of my house. One of the criticisms of ihls city has always been that there was not enough beauty In its streets. I think that it should be given more attention. A fine residence erected on that site would add greatly to the appearance of that portion 6t the ward, and if a Steamer house is nut up it will cut off all attractiveness in that direction. I do n't know why some of the men who belong to the steamer company and do the hard work that firemen do should select that „site.
"The street cars pass there, and in these days of trolley development and the speed requirements the travel is becoming more rapid every year. The cars run oftener and faster and some day there is going to be a terrible collision where cars pass steamer houses. I know that the firemen consider it an advantage if the steamer is located where there are tracks, but those large Hudson Valley cars go up and down Second Avenue at a speed of about thirty miles an hour, and it is not easy for a steamer to turn out.
"There is not a ward ln the city where so much building was done last year. Why put the steamer house on the west side of the ward and leave the property owners on the east side without fire protection? I would like to know why they do not take the west side of the street, if they must have it, on Second Avenue. There 13 a house there owned by Mr. Wills, and a steamer house could be built there for much less than it would cost for the lots on the other side of the street. That lot terraced off and with an attractive piazza on the front would be a fine jplace. I'd .like to know what better site they could wish. I know that there is a party here looking for the site on which It is proposed to build. A fine residence there would greatly enhance surrounding property.
"There is a good chance for the west side of the street to be terraced off and made into a fine park. If the house was erected there it could be put far enough back, so that when the steamer came out there would be plenty of room to turn, if Second Avenue is not the proper place it would be well to select a site in the eastern part of the ward."
M. M. Waterman appeared for Mr. Smith, a property owner In the ward, and said that Mr. Smith is opposed to the site selected by the committee.
Pavored Sixth Street. John Dixon, a member of the J. J.
Child Steamer Company, opposed the site. He said: "The idea of the city paying $2,000 for a river view. I do n't think it necessary. The site on the west side is all right. There is a corner lot at Sixth Street and Third Avenue, and I don't know of any- neighbors that would be opposed to the house being erected there. That lot could be bought cheaper. There will be three steamers for the northern part of the city, the Twining at Twenty-second Street, the Eddy below, and Sixth Street would be nearest to the centre. It is the best corner. I 've always advocated it. It could be bought for about $4,400 or $4,500."
John L. Manny spoke in opposition to the site recommended by the committee, and said there would not be enough space for a steamer to get out. The dangerous part of the ward is from Fifth to Ninth Street. "I understand," he added, "that the Powers people have signed a petition to have the steamer house located nearer their place than Third Avenue."
W. R. Hall opposed the site, and said that he favored the place at Sixth Street spoken of by Mr. Dickson. Mr. Fisher spoke to the same effect, as did William Kemp, jr. Henry Holmes thought the proposition to locate the steamer house on ^fie east side of Second Avenue, as suggested by the committee, preposterous. It would be an outrage on the property owners there. In the winter time the sweepers of the snow plows cover the sidewalk and street with snow and the steamer would have difficulty in getting out. Charles L. Wills also opposed the site.
"Mr. Aird, who came to Troy with his business and put up a fine house on a lot that had been vacant since the year 1 is entitled to some consideration."
Mr. Aird said he endorsed all that Mr* Draper had said in opposition to the site. He. knew the steamer company to be composed of a fine body of young men. "The citizens of the ward." he added, "should be brought into harmony and all feeling subside. I think,that such a result would be attained if some other site just as good were selected."
William K. Salisbury appeared in opposition to the report of the committee, and said he had filed two weeks ago with the Commissioner of Public Safety a petition signed by 100 property owners of the ward, who want the site at the corner of Third Avenue and Sixth Street selected. *
Favored by the Company. Capt. Abram Curtis 6f the J. J. Child
Steamer Company said he was present to speak in favor of the site selected by the committee in behalf of the members of the company. "Of ninety-six members," he added, "seventy-five signed a petition for the site at the corner of Second Avenue and Fourth Street. Eight or ten refused to sign it because they have lots to sell or have friends with that desire. Mr. Alrd said the steamer house would be objectionable next to his residence. I do n't think it objectionable to have a steamer house next to a residence. In the event of a fire he would be glad to have it next to his house. The firemen are entitled to some consideration. What do they get? They have to get out in the dead of the night and run to fires, and then are found fault with and are criticised.
"Mr. Loth wants the house to go on the opposite side of the street. What more harm would the steamer house do than his stable? I have no objection to Third Avenue and Sixth Street. I'd like It there, but I'm here to speak for the company. There Is not a majority of the property owners here against the site the committee selected. Yesterday members of the company went among the property owners and got seventy-five to sign an endorsement of the site at the northeast corner of Fourth Street and Second Avenue. They are people who own property from First Street nearly to Seventh Street." Captain Curtis handed the petition to Mayor <*onway after it had been inspected by
D r a p e r .
the committee or he would have been there.
Mr. Salisbury remarked that Mr. Aird's name waa on the petition for the other side, which was presented a week before the heating.
Andrew L. Draper said that the depreciation of property seemed to be the only issue involved. He thought the Fourth Street site a good one, as It is nearest the dividing Hue. "Recent events have changed my mind somewhat," he added,."and I doubt whether It is ln the Interest of all concerned. It looks to me as though there would be trouble whichever alte is selected. Those who oppose the Fourth Street site say that It will depreciate property If selected, but it don't strike me that way. In my opinion It is an Ideal site."
About the Title. Mayor Conway said the question had
been raised whether a title to the property could be obtained, as he understood that a question had been raised among the heirs.
Mr. Child Informed the Mayor that Mr. Comeskey, the agent for the property, had denied that.
Mr. Kemp said he understood that a partition suit had been started between the two sisters who are heirs to the property.
Ten Days Por Consideration. Mayor Conway said ln conclusion: "I
want to say that I have ten days to render a decision, as the resolution was received by me from the City Ck^rk this morning. The interests of the city will be considered, as well as those of the property owner?."

Algonquin, N. Y., July 9.—Stepping from a New York Central or Chateaugay train at the Saranac Lake station, where activity gives an air of genuine prosperity, one is met by a host of 'bus drivers, each anxious to find and place the patron of his particular hostelry. "Algonquin, sir?" queries a ruddy faced porter. "Any baggage?" The porter leads the way to a tally-ho, a I t survivor of those delightful, old-time coaching parties In the Adlrondacks. With skill born of long experience, the passenger swings himself lightly to ft point of vantage on the top, or, if less fortunate, picks his way gingerly and cautiously from seat to seat to find a place at last among his fellow travelers. The driver gives the signal. The four horses fall Into their accustomed pace up through the well kept streets of Saranac Lake village—the coach meantime rock-

Hart memorial Building—The Prop* erty of a Trojan—Prehistoric Articles. The ancient Egyptian funeral objects
and prehistoric articles of the Egyptian stone age which have been collected by Frank B. Grlswold of this city, and which are to be placed in the Hart Memorial building, form one of the most complete collections in this part of the country. Mr. Grlswold has devoted much time to collecting these Interesting reminders of ancient civilization, and takes pride in adding to its completeness. He has gone abroad on an-othen tour and will again visit Egypt and spend much of his time gathering additional specimens to place in his collection.
The articles are being mounted and will be placed in the Hart Memorial building in a month's time. They will be placed in handsome glass cases, which are now being made in New York.
Buried With the Dead. Among the interesting features of the
collection are various articles that the ancient Egyptians buried with their dead In the tomb. There is a bronze statuette of Isip, wife of Osiris, and the goddess of all that is good and loving. On her knees is her son Horus. In the religion of the Egyptians she represented the same ideas and attributes that Christians give to the Virgin Mary. No less interesting is a bronze representation of Osiris, the oldest known god ln the whole of Egypt. He was the god of wisdom and president of the gods. Horus is also shown in bronze. He was the sun-god, born of Isis, and Is usually called the avenger of his father, in reference to his defeat of Set, his brother. He has on his head the royal crown of lower and upper Egypt. Other gods are shown in bronze, including Apis, emblem of the sacred bull.
In addition to these interesting objects are others representing various animals, and all having some peculiar characteristic revealed by letters, whose significance will be explained ln a carefully edited and Interesting catalogue. A study of the various articles will prove entertaining and highly instructive. Each one has a meaning, and many of them embrace chapters in history, if one understands their significance. There is a bronze plate representing the goddess Sekhet. which was placed on articles of ornament, boxes of jewelry, etc. It is one of those used in the era of Moses and of Rameses II., the oppressor of the Israelites. Also there is a bronze sistrum, a sacred instrument dedicated to harmony. It is of the Ptolemaic

Thought Another Site Had B e e . chosen. Mr. Alrd Interrupted to
had objected to Mr.
period. This dynasty began with Ptolemy I. Soter. one of Alexander's generals, and ended with Cleopatra, the last Egyptian Princess.
Each article had some particular usage in the days of the era to which it is ascribed. For instance, there is a bronze spoon which served to drip the essence on the fire while the mystic ceremony was being performed in the temple. There is a snake box. representing the asp. on a sarcophagus, wherein a small snake is mummified. It is the emblem of the goddess Satl. There are two similar boxes with figures of lizards, used for the same purpose. In the collection are seals and Implements in bronze, hinges, vases and countless other articles. There Is a bronze ladle, used in all epochs to draw the perfumed oil. One of the hinges is from a very ancient temple door.
Porcelain Images. In addition to the articles of bronze
there are many of porcelain, Including images of Shu. the first born son of Ra and Hathor. He is supposed to symbolize the air or sunlight. A porcelain crocodile is described as an emblem of the god Sebek, who represents the terrors of the scorching sun and also the god of marshes. An ibes is a sacred bird, representing the god Tnoth, and a serpent is described as sacred to or emblematic of Methen or Merseker. Much interest attaches to a fragment of a sacred instrument, and to a ring, with an emblem of the eye of Osiris engraved on it. Two vases in which was put wine for the mummy in the tomb also form an Interesting exhibit.
The scarab is a partially round or flat stone on which are engraved words, messages to the gods. Scarabs were placed over the heart of the dead. Mr. Grlswold has an Interesting collection of them. They are much sought by Egyptologists. In Mr. Grlswold's collection Is a winged scarab, with two heads of hawks, emblems of Horus. Among the scarabs Is one containing the chapter of the heart, a funeral basalt stone, a rare scarab of Huksos epoch, one cartouche shape with unknown description and one of mother of pearl, probably of the ancient empire.
Mr. Grlswold has a sarcophagus composed of three cases, with beautiful inscriptions and paintings of the Lady Tarutu, a royal singer and recluse of the temple of Amen.' This was found this year at Tekhneh, Upper Egypt; It is of the third century, B. C. Accompanying this is a mummy cloth, with extract from the back of the dead and figures of the gods. An interesting relic is a funeral boat, sacred to funerals. Standing in the boat are figures carved from stone. These boats are placed In the tomb and are Inscribed with the destination desired for the one who has died. This boat was found last summer at Bershel. Upper Egypt.
In the Grlswold collection is a pillow, a wooden headirest. used in life as a pillow and Indispensable to the deceased in his eternal sleep. Such head rests were used as pillows in all periods. Also there Is a comb of wood found with a mummy.
Ponnd In Upper Egypt. Among the prehistoric articles are five
different vases of different stones found in Upper Egypt, four bludgeons, or "breakheads," different stones from Upper Egypt, arrowheads of flint and one stone knife, found in different places in Upper Egypt; one Ivory spoon, extraordinary for its good preservation and very rare; terra-cotta found in the royal tomb at Nagada, Upper Egypt. Also included are a number of jewels, different pearls, amulets of stone and porcelain from necklaces of different places and different epochs. A number of hieroglyphics create interest, and there is much to admire in a collection of three sets of mummy beads, two of porcelain and one of stone.
The placing of this fine collection where it can be seen and appreciated by the public should stimulate interest in a branch of historic research that Is prolific in results valuable to the seeker for knowledge of the early days of civilization.

charge of the bill for $30.60, which had been presented for compiling the city vote.
Mr. Doty asked for information regarding a charge of $75 for making a report to the Secretary of State on convictions ln the county. A discussion arose, in which Mr. Doty denied that he was attacking anyone's bills and said he merely desired Information.
Mr. Hldley stated that for a number of years the law has made it necessary to make such reports, but when he was at the Jail the report was made from there Instead of the County Clerk's office.
On Mr. Cordial's motion ex-Court Clerk James Fagan was given the privilege of the floor and he explained the charge of $75. The report of the committee was adopted.
Mr. Hart moved the adoption of the report of the Committee on Sheriff's Accounts. The report was amended, on Mr. Cordial's motion, to allow the Jailer and clerk $250 each, instead of $125, an error having been made in preparing the original claim.
The Painting Contract. Mr. Knaupp asked that the Clerk read
the specifications for painting the jail, and he objected to the audit of the bill of D. T. Holland & Co. for $392.67. He stated that the work as called for in the specifications had not been properly done, as the rear of the building had not been painted. It was stated that the bill was accompanied with the certificate of the Sheriff, and Mr. Cordial said that Mr. Heeran informed him Wednesday evening that the work had been satisfactorily performed. Mr. Cordial said this should be sufficient guarantee that the contract had been carried out. Mr. Cordial also said that while the specifications called for two coats Mr. Holland had in some places put three coats of paint on the walls.
- - Mr. Knaupp said that the terms of the contract had not been fully carried out and he moved to cut $50 from the bill.
Mr. Hart aald it would be impossible to take such action, as a contract had been drawn up with D. T. Holland & Co. He said that Sheriff Heeran's certificate was substantial proof that the work had been properly done. Mr. Doty suggested that the matter be laid over until the legal complications in connection with the awarding of the contract had been settled.
Mr. Donovan said that Mr, Holland had put three coats of paint on the walls in some places at Sheriff Heeran's suggestions as two coats were not sufficient.
Mr. Knaupp moved that the bill be referred to a committee for investigation. The motion was lost, Messrs. Knaupp, Rankin, Doty and Peaslee voting in favor of it. The motion to reduce the bill $50 was also lost and the original bill was audited.
A Lawyer's Rill. When the supplemental report of Su
pervisors* Accounts was presented Mr. Connolly moved to cut from $100 to $50 the bill of Eugene Bryan, attorney for the Board of Canvassers last fall. He said he thought that the $300 which had been paid to Mr. Bryan previously was sufficient compensation for his services.
Mr. Bryan was given the privilege of the floor, and he gave a detailed account of his services, holding that the claim was Just. Messrs. Hart and Knaupp favored the bill, which was audited aj the full amount.
Mr. McCabe's resolution that the Clerk of the Board be directed to attach certificates and vouchers to all bills submitted to committees was adopted.
Action Deferred. Mr. Donovan asked that his resolution
calling for the appointment of an engineer to act under the good roads law in this county be laid over for consideration until the October session, as a number of members desired to look Into the matter more thoroughly before acting on it. The matter was held open until the fall meeting.
A resolution was presented by Mr. Schumann rescinding a former resolution by which $50 was donated to the Rensselaer County Rod and Gun Club. He said that County Treasurer Mann had refused to pay the money to the club, the Attorney for the Board having advised him that the Board had no authority to make such an appropriation.
mixture of uncertainty to the novice. Through the green rolling country the
coach bowls swiftly along until at the very gate of Ampersand Park It deflects sharply to the left through as pretty a bit of virgin forest as the Adl-dondacks boast, broken here and there by stretches of reclaimed meadow land. Emerging from the woods the tally-ho winds Its way beside rich meadows and hillsides now covered with a pleasing green and white carpet of daisies, dotted with buttercups and clover. The horses at the end of a two-mile pull draw up before that well known Adirondack hotel —the Algonquin. Not many hours are necessary to convince one that his choice of a summer home Is no mistake. Fronting the lake, looking over a lawn sweet with clover and plentifully sprinkled with daisies and buttercups, the summer guest comes face to face with on* of the most beautiful landscapes in the Adlrondacks. Directly ln front, heavily wooded, Eagle Island is flanked by three tiny islets on the right and on the left by a promontory of balsams and spruces. The glistening water makes a fine contrast with the delicately tinted foliage, which stretches to right and left beyond the powers of human vision. Invigorating breezes from the lake make the broad piazzas charming places for rest and conversation, while those so Inclined find special attractions on the golf links, tennis grounds or lake. A well equipped boathouse, with launches and the ever popular Adirondack guide boat, affords opportunity for boating and fishing among the islands and inflowing streams.
A large number of guests may be seen on the piazzas and in the parlors or engaged in driving and fishing—both popular diversions at the present time. Paul Smith's, Saranac Inn, Lake Placid and Loon Lake are within pleasant driving distance, while the drives to Cascade Lakes and St. Hubert's Inn are charming trips for a two days' jaunt. Within easy driving or rowing distance from the Algonquin excellent fishing may be had in Mackenzie Pond, Mackenzie Brook, Colby Pond, Little Ampersand and Moose Pond. These waters are- stocked annually from the state's Adirondack fish hatchery, located between the Upper and Lower Saranac Lakes.
Heavy registrations at the Algonquin give indications ot one of the most successful seasons ever enjoyed by the hotel under the management of John Harding, Its well known proprietor
An Extensive System That I* Being Constantly Improved—From Troy to Tlon-trea I and Ogdenabnrgh—Modernizing Old Roads. Travelers over the line of the Rutland
Railroad have not failed to note the many s igns of enterprise upon the part of the management. The business of converting old roads into well equipped branches of a big, modern system is being industriously carried on and everywhere there are evidences of Improvement. Now that no less than five trains a day over the Rutland Railroad depart from the Troy Union station, running over the Boston and Maine tracks to White Creek, Troy can quite Justly claim this road as one of its very own, and the Improvements that are going on are. of local interest. Especially Is this the cake with the Bennington and Rutland and Lebanon Springs divisions. The latter road, after passing through many vicissitudes and going from bad to worse, has at last passed into hands that are working actively to make it a really first-class road. Much work has been done and is being done ln the improving of the roadbed, and the division has been well equipped with rolling stock. The work on the roadbed of the Bennington and Rutland division is even more extensive. In many places the bed has been raised a number of feet, with a view to making the grades easier and thus assuring better time than waa the rule In the past.
The Extent of the System. The Rutland Railroad now has a mile
a g e of nearly 400 miles. It extends from Bellows Fails on the east to Ogdens-burgh on the west and from Chatham on the south to Montreal on the north. The section of the road which excites the most interest is that crossing the islands of Lake Champlaln. In order to secure a short route from Burlington to Rouse's Point and Montreal an engineering feat of no little difficulty has been successfully accomplished. An embankment of heavy stone has been built from the
i main shore north of Burlington three I and one-half miles across an arm of : Lake Champlaln to the island of South • Hero. South Hero and North Hero and ! North Hero and Alburg Tongue have been similarly connected, and in this way not only has a short line been secured but the big islands of Lake Champlaln, admirably adapted for summer resorts, have been made easily accessible.
As indicated by all the improvements that are being made, the management of the Rutland Railroad Is thoroughly progressive. Dr. W. Seward Webb is President of the road, George T. Jarvis is General Manager and C. B. Hibbard is General Passenger Agent.

Health Department'* Effort* to Secure Accurate Returns—Some Pall to Comply With the Law. The attention of Dr. C. E. Nichols,
City Health Officer, was called this morning to statements published in The Albany Argus and credited to the State Health Department, in/ relation to the Inability to secure complete reports of vital statistics ln this city. Dr. Nichols said the statement that no fee is paid in Troy for reporting births and marriages is incorrect. "Under the present administration," he stated, "the fee of twenty-five cents for births as well as marriages has been paid in every instance."
The Health Officer- also said that the Health Department under tht present administration had never received any communication from the State Department ln relation to the Incorrect reporting of vital statistics. "As a matter of fact," continued Dr. Nichols, Mwe have urged physicians and clergymen to comply with the law, both through our annual report and a special circular sent out October 1, 1900. In a measure some still defy the law applicable to this matter. There are three churches, among the largest ln the city, the clergymen of which have for three years failed to report a single marriage.
"However, that there has been marked Improvement in the matter of reporting births may be seen by these figures. In 1899, the last year of the former administration. 363 births were reported; in 1900, the first year of the present administration, the number was 501; in 1901 659, and up to June 1 of the present year 325. This is a decided increase, and it resulted from the local department's efforts to secure a full report. Still the figures are not what they should be, as the number of births should exceed the number of deaths. Unless the physicians and clergymen comply with the law there Is no method by which accurate figures can be obtained except through personal prosecution, which is a distasteful procedure."

Important Witnesses Absent. When the case of Job Wllletts, 2d, ac
cused of disorderly conduct by Officer Doyle of the Third Precinct, was called In Police Court this morning another adjournment was asked for by Superintendent Coughlin on behalf of the people. D. T. Shehan, attorney for Wllletts, said that the defense was ready for trial. He said all of Wllletts' witnesses were present Tuesday and to-day, having left their work to come to court. He did not think it right to cause them inconvenience. Superintendent Coughlin said that there were two Important witnesses who would be unable to be present until next week. He asked that the case be adjourned until a week from to-day. Justice Jones decided to set the case down for next Wednesday, when he stated the case must be tried. The court room was crowded, a number of well known residents of the Thirteenth Ward who are to testify £or Wllletts being present. It is charged by Wllletts that Officer Doyle struck him with a club without cause.
Other charges disposed of by Justice Jones this morning were: John Brown, intoxication, discharged; James Curley, violating a city ordinance in depositing dirt on Canal Avenue, sentence suspended; Henry Melssner and Charles Head, disorderly conduct, on complaint
