The carrier wheel first uaed was what is termed a 5 foot wheel, and it will be replaced by a 4 foot wheel. This, Chief Engineer Hildenbrand claims, will give them the benefit of a foot in a certain amount of space. The explanation for this is that a 4 foot wheel while traveling the space necessary will gain more, ground than a wheel a foot larger will over the same space.

A number of Patchoguc carpenters have gone to Jacksonville. for the winter, where there Is a bin demand for mechanics In all linen ot trade to build up the burned portion of that city. The railroads leading to the city offer inducements to mechnnlcs to so there. The Patchogue village trustees are pultlns In two new cisterns on Kast Main street to carry off the surnlus water. Joseph Kubosh of Patchotrue has hounht the Gonzalez place on Melford avenue, that village.

Contractor W. S. Velsor of Isllp has a contract for the erection of a house for John F. Becker of Brooklyn at Island, to cost Also a house for John Liming on Shelter Island, to cost 525.000. At Isllp Mr.

Velsor Is remodeling the T. Peters' place, on which at leapt Is to be expended, and also remodeling the R. Powers place on Awlxa avenue, Isllp, at a total cost of $10,000. Some recent renl estate exchanges at PatchoKiie include the following: S. Edwards to, John L.

posed to the fierce winds and storms of winter, the question of the proposed breakwater, already favorably reported, again comes up, and it is predicted the railroad company will make a determined effort to urge the next Congress to pass an appropriation for the improvement of the port. Sale of the Burtis Parm. Hempstead, L. November 30 The old Burtis farm, near Valley Stream, will be placed on the market next Wednesday. The farm consists.

of nearly fifty acres, the majority of which faces on the macadam highway at Valley Stream. The sale of this old place and its ultimate division into building lots is a forcible reminder of the growth of this section. Within a few years all of the old homesteads which are near any of the large villages on the south side will have become too valuable for agricultural purposes and will give way to the march of progress, to be laid out in streets and be put on the document on Monday and immediately affixed his signature thereto. The long looked for boom in real estate is now awaited. One of the most desirable residential sections in the borough and one that is fast becoming a winter home for many former residents of Manhattan is Sea Gate.

It is only a few years ago when the houses at the western end of Coney Island could be counted from the shores of Bath Beach, but now it appears to be a city by itself. Every one of the well laid out thoroughfares is lined with beautiful houses and more are going up. Peter J. Van Note, a well known builder of Bensonhurst, recently signed contracts for the erection of ten houses at Sea Gate costing in the neighborhood of $100,000. One of the houses is nearly completed, and it is a handsome, structure.

The Atlantic Yacht Club was the means of drawing a large part of the population down that way and one of the real estate operators in that section, Joseph A. Walsh, says the only drawback to Sea Gate is the absence of a good trolley service. LONG ISLAND REAL ESTATE. Sag Harbor Preparing to Awaken Prom Its Sip Van Winkle Sleep of Half a Century. year 1.1:; 1 A.

in the reign of Edward II, statute was enacted madfl the stand ard inch equal to "three barley corns round and dry." and twelve such inches made on foot. Who of us that, have lived out our half century do not remember that old loflg, measure (aide commencing with, "Three barley corns make one inch?" 1 believe the long measure tables no more contain this familiar, sentence. There were several values of the yard rrp the interval between King Henry's time and" that of the final value which was established' Just five hundred years after what may be. called the "barleycorn" statute. There was, the yard and handful, or forty inch ell," which was abolished In 1439; the yard andt inch, or thirty seven inch ell, which war abolished in 15.13; the cloth el! of forty five; inches, which wns used until 1600, and tha yard of Henry VII, which had a value of 39, 963 inches, within thirty seven thousaadthY of the value of the yard and handful.

But the mechanic arts cried out for a better standard, mic was not so variable as the barley or the length of a man's; arm, and so arly as the beginning of the seventeenth century most accurate standards of the yard, foot and Inch had been gradu ated upon metal bars by Abram Sharp, Row ley, Sissons, Snioaton. Graham and all of whom contributed by their methods to a very IiIkIi development of the. adopted standard. Just five hundred years after the statute of Edward II. which made the barley corn the basis of the inch, It was, by an act of George IV, in 1S2 1.

that a legal definition of the', yard was made. This declared that the yard bar, marie by Bird in 17G0, should be the. standard beyond question of doubt. A NEW NURSES' HOME. Henry W.

Maxwell's Henry Street Purchase Will Probably Benefit the Long Island College Hospital. (Special to the Eagle.) Sag Harbor, L. November 30 That this village is about to awaken from its Rip Van Winkle sleep of half a century is predicted by more than one of the wiseacres and far seeing business men of the place. This has already been partly evidenced by the unprecedented and active transactions in real estate. The new company formed a week or two ago is getting right down to business, and this morning ground was broken for the sixteen new houses on Sleight's Hill, which the company purposes to have ready for occupancy by early spring.

On top of this came the well authenticated reports of what the Pennsylvania Railroad Company intend doing by way of improvement at the railroad terminal here. Recently a party of officials were here looking the ground over and selecting a site for the proposed new station, to take the place of the dilapidated apology which has been doing duty ever since the road was extended to this place. The new station will be of brick, located on the opposite side of Main street, on the property lately acquired of. the Marchtone company, thus three months, however," that branoh of the city's government has advanced with giant strides, until, at the close of October, it was shown by the statements of all the school principals that the number of children to whom admission had been refused was less than ninety, and that the number of pupils to whom only a part day session could bo given had been reduced to about 2T as against of over 43,000 of a year ago. The outlook for the future, too, in this direction is good.

From present indications the growth in population will be taken care of with new school houses for at least another year, with a strong chance of still further reducing the number of part time classes. In addition to this there are build ines under way out of present appropriations that should be of great service and the School Board has prepared a budget amounting to about 400,000 for sites and buildings for the future that would, if placed under way at once, mean that in two yearo' time every child in Brooklyn would be provided with a full day seat in the public schools. The Board of Aldermen last week furthered the project of constructing a bridge over Garretsen's Creek at the intersection ot Avenue U. Such an improvement has been asked for for several years and its accomplishment would mean a great deal for that part of the borough. In this connection the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company controls a franchise for the oper" trolley cars through Avenue so the bridge as a connecting link a belt line of communication could 1 lio Iished that would bind the entire an outlying wards together.

George E. Lovett Co of 28 Court street, yesterday made a sale for the estate of John Cox to Henry W. Maxwell that will probably mean a much needed addition to the establishment of the Long Island College Hospital. This was the old Degraw homestead, at the southeast corner of Henry and Amity streets, a four story brick house on a plot 50x91 feet, which has stood vacant since the death of Mrs. Degraw several years ago.

The purchase price was about 510,000. It is stated that Mr. Maxwell, the well known banker and philanthropist, secured this property for the purpose of erecting on the plot a home for the nurses connected with the Long Island College Hospital. This is an addition to the plant that has long been needed and one that will be welcomed FREEPORT SUBURBAN" RESIDENCES. New Tpye of Houses Being Built by E.

The property is known as Cedar Brook, having a pretty stream of water passing through it and bordered by a row of cedar trees.

EXCAVATION WORK BEGUN. The work of making excavations for the foundations of the pillars of the elevated structure ol the Rapid Transit Improvement was informally begun on Atlantic avenue yesterday morning at Alabama avenue, opposite the Howard House. The work of excavation was continued northward along the thoroughfare. From present Indications the actual work on the construction of the road will proceed rapidly from now on. Considerable interest attaches to the sale completed the first of this week by Edward P.

Smith of 269 Flatbush avenue of the four new apartment houses in President street for Louis Bonert to a Manhattan capitalist. It is not only a matter of local comment, tut also significant of what may be looked for in the same line. Attention has been called to this class of property as a preferred investment and also the fact that Brooklyn presents a number of similar parcels that should be attractive to men who desire to invest in good paying realty. The advettt.of the present tenement house laws practically put a stop to further development in this direction throughout the entire city. Manhattan has broken away from the embargo of these laws by the introduction of the apartment, hotel, and a number of very extensive operations have already been started across the river on this plan of improvement.

Brooklyn, however, has but a single example of this class of construction in the Florence, recently completed iu X'ierrepont street by Louis Horowitz, and the success of his enterprise was positive at the opening of that house. But Brooklyn has a large number of first class apartments that have been completed within two years that are to all intents and purposes entirely within the requirements of the tenement house law. They are all constructed in the best manner, have obtained a full complement of tenants practically at once and are among the best revenue payers in the city to day. This class of Investment is almost entirely absorbed in Manhattan, so that it is 110. wonder that capitalists of that borough should turn their attention to Brooklyn for opportunities, and it would be no surprise II in emulating the example of Mr.

Smith in going abroad for clients brokers shouid give builders courage to enter upon new lectures by taking off their hands desiracde apartments. Another feature of the market this week, which has presented more or less of a holiday tone, was the announcement that the New York Title Insurance Company had absorbed an old local tiile plant and that it would sooner or later enter the field for Vusiucss this borough with a large capital atid a much larger financial backing. Such a company is needed here, if for nothing else, to lend versatility to real estate transfers, and if the new company hopes to uucceod it will have to be up to date nfld enterprising, in which endeavor it will fnd many who will give it a helpful hand. Such a company, too, ohould be of great vantage to the market, generally in the way of loans. In Manhattan, on narrower margins, money can he obtained on bond and mortgage at an average of 1 per cem.

below similar accommodation in Brooklyn, where property must be satisfied with a smaller borrowing capacity. And in the same direction capital is making combinations that should give an impe tus to trade. While the Realty Associates was the first corporation in the field to buy income bearing property for investment and sale it did not take long for those who were not able get into that company to realize the benefits of such a combination of capital and others are under formation that Will be close competitors. With such a buying interest abroad a good market shouid be established, not forgetting, however, that these same combinations of capital know just what is wanted and will favor the bargain counters more than they will the offerings ot property holders who seek to something like the real value for their property. Still another plan to induce investment in real estate has been put before the people.

This is the Introduction by a well known real estate firm of a bank system. On application a would be property owner c.l small means can secure one of these hand banks, which are made of chilled steel and are more or less ornamental. Into this receptacle coins are to be dropped, to be accounted for each month at the office of the company, where credit will be given for the amount deposited and interest allowed, and when the stipulated amount has been paid in a deed will be given for the lot selecteJ. Dimes and nickels will do a great deal in time if looked alter aud by this method of small savings doubtless many will eventually actually own some real estate. A Condition always taken advantage of in small settlements is almost entirely ignored in larger ones.

That is, school accommodations. Brooklyn for three years suffered a great deal through lack of proper accommodations for her children. During the last LONG ISLAND REALTY NOTES. STANDARDS OF MEASUBE. Various Lengths of the Cubic, Fopt and Inch.

Urom Oassler's Magazine.) So far as we know at present, the standard measuring instrument for linear measures In Egypt. Persia, Babylonia, Greece, and, in fact, all the Eastern countries, wns the cubit, which was divided in various ways, that of the Talmud being divided into digits, or finger breadths, palms and spans, four digits being equal to one palm or hand breadth, three palms to one span and two spans to one cubit. A great deal of valuable research has been made by eminent melrologists to ascertain the length of the cubit, as used by the various nations who made it their standard. We would naturally imagine that all cubits were of one length, but when we consider that our own foot measure has varied so much (nine and one quarter inches) from its present recognized value, we should not be surprised to tlnd that the cubit varied from 18.23 to 2.1.1 inches in Egypt. The cubit, of the Fourth Dynasty varied from 20.112 to 20.

.11 inches, only about one tenth of an inch. The divided plotting scales lying on the drawing board of the statue ot Gudea equaled 20. Inches. The Babylonian cubit was almost ex exactly the same length as the Egyptian cubit of the Fourth Dynasty, 2i.G and 20. .1 inches.

The Persian ntiMt seems to have been rather short, measuring 19.2 inches, but, according to a recent writer, there is good evidence of another cubit, measuring about 2.1.2,1 inches. The cubit ot the Hebrew nation, according to a number of Investigators, seems to huve been 21. inches, although Lieutenant. Tot ton insists, and seems to have proved, that the value of the Jewish 'as well as the Egyptian sacred cubit, wns exactly 2.1 inches. There is considerable difficulty in connecting the links between ancient, and medieval metrology, for no sharp lines can be drawn, and there is a period of more than a thousand years over which the connection of units of measure is very uncertain.

The Delgic foot was probably carried over lo Great. Britain in the tenth century, its value as the foot now measures, was 13.22 inches; hut it. hud to come In contact with the legal foot, which was enforced by law as early ns tile year 9.10. Had the Belgie fool of Hi. 22 inches been adopted instead of the legal foot, of 12 Inches, only a very small change would have to be made to make It one third of a meter, the meter being about 39.37 incites, and three times the value of the Ilelglc foot would he only 0.2H of an inch longer than the meter.

Hut the dirt of King floury I had placed the value of the foot at 12 Inches, or one third of the legal yard, which, lu turn, was supposed to be one half the distance between the lips of the fingers or the outstretched arms of King Henry.

STOCKHOLDERS SURPRISED. The stockholders In the Mount Morris Cooperative Building ami Loan Association, were recently surprised on receiving from the officers of the association a circular, announcing an Intended reduction of 1.0 per cent, in the accounts of all members, the 10 per cent, to go into a reserve fund. The association has an office nt 113 Bast On Hundred and Twont fifth street, hoa 700 mcmliers, many of whom Jin women, and has been in existence for thirteen years. The president is James G.

A few weeks ago the Bunking Department compli'toil its annual examination of the ussoclai ion's finances, when Ihe examiner found lliat the chief asset, was real estate, valued at 5101. 10. The Banking Department thought tin's excessive, and for tin security of Ihc association iinggcsted Ilia I. 10 HT cent, be deducted from the value of ouch depositor's holdings, this money to be used to create a reserve fund of 5.111,0011.

This purchase gives the railroad entire control of all water traffic as now established, all docks and landings having been already acquired. The Manhanset will continue on the route as long as the bay ia open, under command of Port Captain Abraham Mitchell. If the plans of ihe company are carried out for next summer, it. will give an excellent, mail and passenger service between Sag Hfirbor and New London.

The steamer Orient, which has proven a fast and commodious craft, will bo used for mail and passengers only, making two trips daily through June, July and with the Manhanset running daily as a freight boat. As the Pennsylvania Company controls all docks and moorings, it is here that a number of the boats will winter.

The first wire was sent across the structure on Wednesday, and while it was made as an experiment which was closely watched by Charles G.
