Old Dickinson Mansion at Trenton, New Jersey, Onetf
the Stopping: Ware of John Adams, lias Very Ro
mantic History.
To the lover of historic old houso
the ancient Dickinson mansion In Tren
ton. New Jersey, possesses many at
tractions. "The Hermitage," as It is
called, wii built hy the Rutherford
family tome years previous to the Revo
lution. Ueneral Philemon Dickinson, a
member of a distinguished family, nnd
one of the bravest soldier In ihe strug
gle for Independence, purchased the
Rutherford mansion In the July between
the Declaration of Independence and the
tattle of Trenton. At this time there
was almost no market for proper! .

who became, . tbe. wife of George t ox
Esq., of Champlast. and Samuel, who
married a daughter of Samuel Mere
dith first treasurer of the I nlted States.
John Adams, a personal friend or the
general, often stopped there In the peril
ous year of 1777. before the close prox
imity of the British drove congress
from Philadelphia. Later, as president,
during the cholera scare In that city in
1718. he spent with the Dickinson fam
ily much of the time passed In Trenton,
although quartered with his secretary
and domestics at the old Phoenix hotel
This ancient building stood, until some
years after the civil war. at the corner
of West Hanover and Warcn streets.
Adams must have enjoyed his Jaunts
to Trenton and its environs In the
memorable spring of 1777 to meet Jer
sey friends and seek relaxation from
state cares. In March of that year he
wrote in disgust from Philadelphia to
his faithful Abigail:
' "This city te a null place, compared
to what It was. More than one half of
the Inhabitants have removed Into the
country, as it was their wisdom to do
The remainder are chlfely Quakers, as
dull as beetles." ,
From his diary we learn that he
breakfasted and supped with the Jack
sons, Smiths, Spencers and others. Now
and then He stopped at the Sign of the
Green Tree, the tavern that gained his
attention when he first visited Trenton
in 1774. owing to the four immense wal
nut trees shading it. This old-time
hostelry, conducted by the Williams
famllv. attracted many travelers,
notably the Marquis de Chastellux, In
1780.
Although Adams enjoyed Trenton, the
town, in 1777, It was a very different
place from the brilliant city he found
there i years later. The close of the
eighteenth century was one of the
notable periods In Its history, especially
' its social history. Among the families
the most prominent were the Howells.
Brearleys Kurmans, Morrises, Clymers,
Cadwaladers, Merediths. Covennovens.
Rutherfords, Dagworthys, Spenoers,
Balnbrldges. Greens, Beattys. De Klyns.
"Wllcoxes, Erskine and Reeds. In the
fall of 1798 when the yelldw fever was
most virulent In the capital nearby, all
the government officials removed to
Trenton with their families. The city
soon became overcrowded, and it was
almost impossible to obtain any kind of
lodging. President Adams arrived Octo
ber 10. and was greeted on State street
wljth fireworks and cheers, and on old
chronicler Informs us that later a round
of elegant and fashionable entertain
ments was planned In his honor.
October days of 1798 were bright ones
for Trenton, and the rooms of "The
Hermitage" were always taxed with
large gatherings of the first company
of the republic. Lucy Plnlard, a mem
ber of the famous Plntard family of
New York city, and later of the Jerseys,
spent that month and the preceding ones
in Trenton. One of her letters, written
from London in the following year, and
still preserved by her descendants, con
tains a pleasing reference to the fash
ionables of the former place. Shewrites:
Sprig- of peerage.
"The sprigs of the peerage I have met
with so far at Mrs. Rive's do not equal
in their fineness of attire our own ladles
and gentlemen of New Jersey, to be
found in the capital city. Ours have
the Innocence of a new formed society
.and government. Gaming Is all the rage
here, and they keen it up at every house.

During recent vears the rambling old

stood neglected and It had been feared
that It must be effaced to make way
for municipal Improvements; but it now
promises to stand for a time, at least
as a new lease of life has been granted
It as an apartment house, and there ts
no longer any controversy concerning Its
preservation. Although It Stands direct

now remains uniouriieu. im ic ex

changes to the interior to make it

could be still further divided, if desired,
as the rambling old mansion Is one of
the roomiest of Trenton s old landmarks.
The broad, stately hallway, leading di
rectly through the mansion, speaks elo
quently of the commodious building of
the early days of old Trent's town.
Decidedly the most interesting portion
of the old mansion Is not Included In
any of the home suites, but It stands
deserted and In a dilapidated condition.
This little low building consists of the
ancient kitchen and servants" quarters;
in it are found the big old-time fire
place, and the Immense bake oven of
olden davs. built of brick. The restora
tion of this old kitchen has been con
sidered of late by one of the tenants of
the historic mansion. And there Is still
hope that the entire dwelling may be
allowed 1o stand, and be restored to Its
former beauty, although rows of modern
houses may crowd close up over Its ex

American Slang Is Not Always What

Many nords and phrases which we

A CLEVER DOG.
A Collie Which Called Daily at a

From the London Leader.
The old problem, "Can dogs reason?"
Is revived by a remarkable story which
comes from llolloway.

earned distinction for Itself by its
habit of trotting round dally to a

treatment about five weks ago. Each
evening for throe or four days Roy
was talcen here by his master.
Then Koy decided that In future he
would not wait for his master to take
him to the surgery. One evening, di
rectly the door of his home was opened,
Roy dashed out alone. In a few min

Stevenson's surgery half a mile away.
"No one was more surprised than I
was." said Mr. Stevenson to a Morntng

The paths are thus clear, and It l
evident that the chancellor la anxlou
that no ohstnele shall arise at the jasl

will consider that the more important
duty is to remain in Berlin.
The reassembling of the Reichstag
was originally fixed for Friday. No
vember IS, but, according to persistent
rumors, It Is to be postponed until
November 21. The reason for th.a
change may be that owing to the cir
cumstances that November 20 Is "But
stag" In Prussia, a day dedicated to
repentance and prayer, It Is considered
advisable to resume the sittings wi.-n
they can proceed without interruption.
It 'is noteworthy that although Im
ports that the chancellor proposes to
visit F.ngland have been In circulation
for several days, not a single newu
paper of importance has ventured a
word of comment on the project.

Dr. Brougher Urges Cultivation of
Love for the Beautiful.
Last night In connection with his
sermon on "The I-rfive of Animals" Dr.
Brougher took occasion to say to the
great audience at the White Temple:
"We need to cultivate most assidu
ously our esthetic natures. Both old
and young need the refining Influence
of all that Is pure and beautiful. I am
glad thnt Borne of the citixens of Port
land have organized a company and
planned for a rose festival next June.
There Is no city in America where the
roses are so beautiful and fragrant as
thev are in our city.
"Pople from every part of our coun
try during the Lewis nnd Clark exposi
tion declared that Portland surely led
the world for roses. They specially
ndmlred the rose hedges along the side
walks nnd In front of the lawns. It
has been suggested that these hedges
should be planted on Park and West
Pork streets, lining the park on each
side between the two streets. I trust
It will be done. Every man and woman,
boy and girl in the city ought to be
ready to do his or her part to fill our
city with the most beautiful roses in
the world.
"Every one of us ought to be Inter
ested In making the rose festival the
greatest exhibition of Its kind In the
world. Let us cultivate a love for the
beautiful and bring into our Uvea every

When I have accepted your case
for treatment you may look for
ward' to a complete and permanent
cure, and with the very first treat
ment the curing will begin. Th s
is pretty definite talk upon what Is
commonly regarded a an uncer
tain and speculative matter. But I
am in a position to apeak defialtely
and positively. With me the cure
of men's diseases is not uncertain
or speculative at all.

I have treated so many cases that I know just what I can do and
what I cannot do. and I never promise or attempt too much. I accept no
rase In which I have doubt ns to my ability to cure, and results aro
always ecual to the claims I make. Following are some of the diseases
I cure, and reasons why my cures are certain.
Contracted Disorders
In no other aliment peculiar to men
Is a prompt and thorough cure so
essential. Contracted disorders
tend to work backward until the
most vital nerve centers become In
volved In the inflammation. Then
follows a chronic stage that stub
bornly resists all ordinary treat
ment Safety- demands, that every
vestige of infection be eradicated at
the earliest possible moment. My
treatment is thorough. The reme
dies employed have a more posi
tive action than has ever before
1 ..tried, and so perfect Is
been attained, ana so
my method of application that even
.h,ni caaes yield completely.
