A HUGE FAMILY,
IT CONTAINS MORE THAN 12,000
PERS0N3.
Letcher County. Kentucky. Populated by
;the Descendants of Old Benjamin Webb
—Thirty Birthdays Every Day the Year
Around—Curious Complications.
There is an entire county in the
eastern part of Kentucky which is
populated by the descendants and
relatives of a single family. The
original Webb family consist; of more
tlian eight, hundred direct descendants,
utl® the number of those w ho are
more or less closely related to them bv
ijiiuri.gfl I. ooB.ifler.bly
fnelie thousand. The family has up
to the present lime practically filled
Letcher County, and has commenced
lo overflow the boundary lines into
the adjofuingcounties.
Tin, retnark.U, popol.tion,
correspondent of the New Yor* World,
traces its ancestry directly to a Ben-
jamin Webb, who settled in this sec- tl\«.
non nearly nearly h a century centurv ago. at-., At At the
present time there are still living six
of his children.
The moat numerous branch of the
family in descended l ic. from Jason i nr Webb, , ,
who is now in hie seventy-eighth
year. Other children have families
in the lionse, now sixty years old, in
which lie began housekeeping and
raised a family of nineteen children.
rt( Of this ■ remarkable nii/ family i sixteen are
still living. The n.ext generation,
which consists of 150 grandchildren,
are all living. There are besides 80
great-grandchildren and 60 great-
great-Krand-children,nll ofwhom are at
present living ° within ten miles of .Ta-
eo “-
It Will occur to most people that n
family of such remarkable proportions
must give rise to many complications
in® descendants of old benjamin
Webb have for one thing been obliged
to select about eight hundred names
for their children, aud the entire
family lias been obliged to go through
the ordeal of agreeing upon mofe
than twelve thousand names. Com¬
pared with this task the work of nam¬
ing tho streets of an entire city like
New York would be trifling.
If each member of the family should
attempt to give presents at Christmas
to all the other members the expense
would bo something startling.
In the immediate family there is nn
average of nearly three birthdays
celebrated every day. The entire
family, it may readily be calculated,
might celebrate thirty birthdays every
day in the year.
One of tho most remarkable of the
original family is Uncle Miles, who
though seventy-five years old, is about
to marry a sister-in-law. This re-
markuble old man has fourteen chil¬
dren, all of whom are married and
have large families. He is unable to
tell the exact number of descendants
who should be credited to him, but
thinks that a conservative estimate
would place the number of grand¬
children at 100, great-grandchildren
seventy-live, nnd great-great-grand¬
children at about forty.
The oldest living member of the
family is Aunt old. Polly, who is eighty-
two years Her branch of the
family tree comprises eight living
children, seventy grandchildren, forty-
five great-grandchildren, and twenty-
two great-great-grandchildren. Her
little sister, who is known as (he
worker of the family, is but seventy-
three years old. Her branch, which
• includes five generations, is made up
of some ninety-eight members.
The entire population of Letcher
County, it is claimed, can trace their
ancestry very clearly back to but four
families, who were the first to settle
in this section. These families Avere
th®Grafts, Adamses and Halhrookes,
and, of course, the Webbs. The de¬
scendants have married and inter¬
married in a most perplexing manner.
Only a very few of them have ever
seen a railroad train.
The little county, as might be im¬
agined, is in reality ft email kingdom,
over which the elder Webbs are polit¬
ical monarchs. Whenever a Webb
Avishes to hold any office in the coun¬
ty the result is a foregone coar#w«ion.
Such a condition of affairs does not,
it is very safe to say, exist in any other
State iu the Union.

The Blue and the Gray.
Both men and women are apt to feel a little
blue, when the array hairs begin to show. It's
a very natural feeling. In the normal condition
of things gray hairs belong to advanced age.
They have no business whitening the head of
man or woman, who has not begun to go
down the slope of life. As a matter of fact,
the hair turns gray regardless of age, or of
life’s seasons ; sometimes it is whitened by
sickness, but more often from lack of care.
When the hair fades or turns gray there’s no
need to resort to hair dyes. The normal color
of tho hair is restored and retained by the use of
Ayer’s Hair Vigor.

In Honor of Betsy Ross.
A memorial in honor of Betsy
Ross, who made the first American
flag, lias long been lacking, and the
patriotic public Avill undoubtedly join
heartily in the movement which is-
now inaugurated by the Patriotic Sons
of America and tho Junior Order
United American Mechanics to erect
such a memorial, patriots all over the
country being requested to lend theii
aid and support to the plan. This
honor to the memory of the good dame
Ross Avon Id be most appropriate, ami
Fail-mount Park Avonld be a fitting
place in w hich to place the proposed
memorial. As the kind of memorial
lias not yet been determined upon, n
suggestion is not out of order. Why
do not these) patriotic societies raise a
fund and purchase the house in which
the first American flag Avas made and
have it removed to some appropriate
spot iu the park? No more fitting
honor could be paid the memory of
Betsy Ross than the preservation of
her old homestead for all future gen
orations. A valuable historical edi¬
fice, in which the whole nation is in¬

the open
windows she
could look out
over New York
Bay and see the
J church spires and
tall buildings of New York and Brook¬
lyn. She often laid aside her work
and gazed at the blue water and the
great ships and boats that passed to
and fro upon it and at the far-away
cities. Indeed, this is what she was
doing when a gentle knock disturbed
her reverie.
“Come in! Oh, Sophia, it is you,
my dear;,” she said, as a little girl of
twelve entered. “Sit down here, and
I’ll ring for Kate to bring you some
gingerbread.”
With an air of extreme satisfaction,
Sophia drew up one of the old-fash¬
ioned mahogany chairs and seated
herself at the tablo beside the old
lady. .
“And now,” said Aunt Caroline,
after Sophia had been supplied with
two large slices of gingerbread, “shall
it be a talk or a story this afternoon?”
“A story,” replied Sophia, promptly.
“Well, then, I’ll tell you a story
about this table,” and Aunt Caroline
laid her soft old hand on the polished
surface of the table at which they sat.
“It was a favorite piece of furniture
with my grandmother, who received
it as a wedding present from an
uncle of hers in England. My dear, I
often sit here and think of my grand¬
mother and wonder how she could
have borne tho separation from her
husband and only brother—both offi¬
cers in the American army during the
War of the Revolution. Her husband
was Major Deerfield and served in
Washington’s army, whLie her brother,
Henry Dayton, was captain of horse
under Colonel James Clinton, who, at
the time the events I am going to tell
you about happened, was in command
of certain posts in the highlands of the
Hudson.
“Grandfather and grandmother were
married in tho spring of 1775, and it
was about a year after, that affairs in
New York began to assume an alarm¬
ing aspect. Out on the bay lay a
British fleet, among them the vessel
honored by the presence of Governor
Tryon—how the good New Yorkers
hated liim—and a British army was en¬
camped on the Staten Island and Jer¬
sey shores.
“My grandmother, plucky though
she Avas, could not help feeling alarmed,
aud she avc? overjoyed when Washing¬
ton arrived from Boston, Avlierehe had
been turning the British out and re¬
storing the Bostonians to their rights.
With Washington’s army came, of
course, Major Deerfield.
“For a time, the arrival of Washing¬
ton put new heart into tho NeAv York¬
ers; but my grandfather meant to run
no risks Avhere his wife was concerned.
One morning he came from headquar¬
ters to his house ou Pearl street aud
found grandmother seated by the win¬
dow in her little boudoir. Her Avork
lay in her lap and her elboAvs rested
on the table—this table.
“ Well, sweetheart,’ said he, stoop¬
ing and kissing her, ‘what ails you?
Idle so early in the morning?’ Then
he sat doAvn beside her and they both
looked out of the AviudoAv down the
bay; and he counted the British ships
iu sight, aud pointed out to her our
fortification on Brooklyn Heights and
showed her that if the British once
Avrested this post from us, NeAv York
Avould be directly under their noses,
‘and then—and then,’said he, ‘there\1
he the deuce to pay. ’ And he told her
that he thought it would be better for
her to go out of toAvn, baa ay from the
turmoil and confusion and possible
danger until things in the city had be¬
come quiet aud peaceful again. In
fact, he said, he had already taken
measures to this end, and had ob¬
tained leave of absence from his regi¬
ment long enough to rUoav of his plac¬
ing her in safety Avith some good, re¬
liable Dutch people, aaIio lived on a
farm about thirty miles up the Hud¬
son. My grandmother did not Avant to
go a bit; for, in leaving Nbav York: she
would not only be cut off from all eoru-
munication with her husband and
friends there, but aa-ouUI lose the
chance of getting news of her Brother
Henry, from whom she had heard
nothing for many weeks. However,
grandmother Aras a sensible woman,
aud, making the best of a sad necessi¬
ty, said she was willing to go.
“Major Deerfield had arranged that
they should leaA-e the city next morn-
ing, and an escort of ten men had been
provided. Traveling at that time was a
perilous undertaking Avithout an armed
escort, as one was liable at any mo-
ment to encounter a party of British
foragers or a band of native maraud¬
ers, unscrupulous and rapacious.
“Grandmother’s room at the farm¬
house Avas made quite homelike by fur¬
niture and knick-knacks she brought
Avith her from the city. Among them
'\as this table, which she would not
have consented to leave behind on any
account. Her life in the country was
! not unhappy, though she longed for
news of her husband and brother.
However, it was just as well that she
could not know of the dreadful things
that were happening in the city, as the
know ledge would have increased her
anxiety ten fold. Washington was
disheartened at the turn affairs had
taaen. His enemies were overpower-
lu £ in “timbers and their ranks were
constantly being increased by the ar-
rival of fresh troops. Poor man, he

him that the baby was there. One day,
as she lay on a couch with her three-
weeks’-old baby in her arms, she heard
an unsual commotion down stairs,
and the voice of the farmer’s wife
loudlp ordering the maids and men
about,
“ ‘Get out the covered wagon, Peter.
You, Caroline, collect all the pro¬
visions you can and put them into it.
I will see that the lady upstairs is got
ready.’ Then footsteps sounded on
the stairs, and next moment grand¬
mother’s door was opened without
ceremony, and the farmer’s wife ap¬
peared, pale and excited.
“ ‘Madame,’ she said, ‘there is a
party of ruffians bent on plunder com¬
ing up the road. They have robbed
and burned the Allens’ house, three
miles from here, aud are driving be¬
fore them the horses and cattle they
have stolen. It is not safe for us to
remain hero.’ While she spoke the
good . woman , helped , , grandmother , to
( less. ten they gathered together
what small articles of value they
could and, wrapping the baby m a
shawl, descended into the yard where
the wagon stood. Scarcely had grand¬
mother been helped into it than loud
shouts and yells announced the ap¬
proach of the pillagers. Tho Dutch
woman and her maids clambered into
the wagon beside my grandmother
and her baby. Then the farmer
cracked his whip and the whole party
were jolted swiftly down a steep hill
and across the fields to the welcome
shelter of the woods, into whose depths
they drove for some
“Half an hour later the farmer,
who had been reeonnoitering, re¬
turned to the fugitives in a state
of great agitation and excitement to
say that his house was in flames.
“How dreadful,” exclaimed Sophia.
“And were these British soldiers?”
“No, my dear; they were not sol¬
diers at all. Tories, they called them¬
selves when plundering Americans.
But they really belonged to neither
side, and veered from party to party,
as it suited their wicked ends. Well,
the marauders remained in the vicin¬
ity several days, during which time
our little party was afraid to leave its
hiding place and seek protection in
the neighboring village, some ten
miles away. At last, on tho morning
of the making third or fourth day, while they
were a miserable breakfast off
the remainder of their provisions,
they were startled by the appearance
of half a dozen horsemen coming
toward them through the woods. As
they drew nearer, grandmother saw, to
her great relief, that they were Ameri¬
can soldiers, and furthermore, one of
the group looked uncommonly like her
brother Harry; and, sure enough, it
was he, and next mSment he had
sprung down from liis horse and was
clasping his sister and her baby in his
arms.
“Some hours later, when the poor
fugitives were comfortably settled in
a house in the village, Captain Day-
ton told how he had come to find
them.
“ ‘You know that blessed mahog¬
any table of yours, Bess,’ said he,
‘that Uncle Henry sent yon from Eng¬
land?’
“ ‘Oh, yes, Harry; it was burned
with all the poor farmer’s posses¬
sions.’
“ ‘No it wasn’t,’ he replied; ‘it’s
safe and sound, and was the means
of my finding you.’ Then he Avent
on to tell hoAv that news of

mander, avIio had sent him out
with a small party to put an end to
their depredations. And Avhile they
Avere galloping along in hot haste, his
horse cast a shoe. But presently, as
luck would have it, they came upon a
blacksmith’s forge, and while his horse
was being shod, Captain Dayton en¬
tered the shed aud found a heap of
furnitnre piled up in a corner, and
among it this table, which he recog¬
nized at once as his sister’s, though
hoAv it had come there he could not
for his life conjecture, for, you see, he
knew nothing of her departure from
NeAv York. Upon inquiry he learned
that the table and the other things had
been left by the party of freebooters
he Avas in search of, Avho had insisted
upon making the poor blacksmith’s
forge a temporary storehouse for their
booty. Further inquiry revealed that
the latest scene of their depredations
was a farmhouse some fh-e miles dis¬
tant, where it was rumored a rich and
beautiful New York lady was living in
seclusion, placed there by her hus¬
band, an officer iu the American army.
The farmer and his family were sup¬
posed to have escaped unharmed, but
the house Avas ransacked and burned.
“Captain Dayton waited for no
more; but detailing half of his men to
stay and watch the forge, he galloped
away, folloAved by the remainder. On
reaching the farm he found nothing
but a heap of blackened ruins left to
mark the place where the house had
stood. Whatever the pillagers were
unable to carry away they had burned
or destroyed. And it was not ____ until
after a long search that the Captain
aud his men discoA'eredmv grandmother
and the good Dutch people in their
hiding-place in the woods,
“Years passed before my grand-
mother returned to her house onVearl
street; but she did go back. And af-
ter awhile grandfather bought a house
fronting on the Battery, and here the
old table stood, in the centre

many happy little one’s clustered, who

THE BE*RS OF ALASKA.
There Are Several Varletlea »f Them »t
the Service of Sportsmen.
In Alaska there are several varie¬
ties of the bear, including the polar or
white bear, the brown bear, and the
grizzly bear. The New York Sun has
learned from a member of the United
States Coast and Geodetio Survey,
who has spent much time in Alaska,
that, iu the colder months of the year,
droves of polar bears may be seen as
far south as St. Matthew’s Island in
Bering Sea, but that, when the ice
begins to break up there, they strike
out for the furthest north, as far as the
Arctic Ocean. Their habits are of a
maritime character; they are great
swimmers; “they do not mind a swim
of from 150 to ‘200 miles if they can
find an occasional iceberg to rest on.
They are ferocious, and have no fear
of an enemy, so that the sportsman
who is fond of adventures with a spice
of danger in them can find genuine
happiness in hunting the polar bear,
which, however, it must be said, has
a habit of killing and devrmring such
persons as may seek sport at its ex¬
pense.” is huge
The brown bear of Alaska a
and shaggy bear, varying in length
from six to twelve feet and weighing
from 800 to 1500 pounds, and is a
dangerous adversary, the terror of the
natives. It is an expert fisher, with a
good appetite for salmon in its season;
and when the year’s run of that dainty
fish is over it takes to the hills, where
small game awaits consumption, The
brown bear has been particularly use¬
ful as a road-maker in Alaska, treading
the river banks and plains in a pur¬
poseful manner, so that the traveler,
by following its footsteps, will find the
easiest routes to the hills and to the
best fording places, Its habitat is
believed to run as far north as the
Arctic Ocean. As to its.ferocity, the
natives do not possess a monopoly
of the stories. Yet there is an authentic
re t tbat ROme time a go two men
8eveu brown bears in one day
t ho mainland adjacent to the
Wand of Uagn aad exhibited the
skins iu proof of their good faith.
This story ought to give encourage¬
ment to those sportsmen who like a
spice of luck as well as of danger in

It is hard to tell whether the grizzly
bear of Alaska is more ferocious than
the polar bear or the brown bear of
that part of America. But some of the
men who have traveled near Mount
St. Elias say that the grizzly foun.l
there is unequalled for ferocity, being
fiercer even than the Rocky Mountain
variety. The Indian will never attack
it; he takes to flight at the sight of it.
It has no fear of bullets. It is happy
when it lays eyes on a human being;
humanity is but provender for it. The
natives believe that it possesses su¬
pernatural potvers, and can hypnotize
the man who goes out to kill it. Yet,
it is related that upon one occasion a
party of t- o Americans in the Mount
St. Elias region saw a grizzly at a dis-
lauce eating fish upon the banks of a
stream and determined to try conclu¬
sions with it. They got reinforce¬
ments by which their party was raised
to the number of six. The six men
raised their rifles and poured a volley
into the body of the enemy, which
thereupon rushed toward the firing
party. As the animal approached they
peppered it with their bullets until its
life was extinct. The skinning of it
was the next thing; and it was one of
tho members of the party of six who
said: “When the skin was stretched
out it looked to me bigger than the
biggest bullock hide I had ever seen!”
That was an adventure for sports¬
men who have no fear of danger, but
rather like it. In truth, there is ' no
part of the American continent where
an adventurous hunter can get livelier
experiences in bear hunting than those
which are to be found in Alaska. He
can take his choice between the polar
bear, the brown bear, and the biggest
grizzly ou earth. He can ho\ r er about
Mount St. Elias, take observations
upon the mainland near Unga, or go
stalking among the ice fields which
border the Arctic Ocean, some dis¬
tance this side of the North Pole.
There are yet lots of chances for sport
in this country betAveen Florida Strait
and Point BarroAV.

Hook by General Washington.
One thousand dollars has just been
paid in this city for a small sixteen^
page pamphlet, minus the cover and
otherwise dilapidated. It is the work
of George Washington, and, save for
two other copies, the last known sur¬
vivor of its edition.
The $1000 pamphlet was printed at
Williamsburg, the old capital of Vir¬
ginia, in 1754-5, according to the date
upon tho title page. The Govern¬
ment printers of the old dominion
were the publishers and “George
Washington, Esquire, Colonel of
Militia,” is set doAvn as author. It
would be, save for its associations, a
very uninteresting work, consisting
solely of a soldierly aud altogether
matter-of-fact account of Washington’s
expedition, under the orders of
Governor Dimviudle, to inspect the
frontier forts along the Ohio River.
On his return from the expedition
to the forts Washington laid his re¬
port before the Colonial Got r ernor,
and Avas permitted by that functionary
to have it printed at the Govern¬
ment’s expense. Accordingly Colonel
Washington set to work and worked
his report into shape, the result of
this, his first literary effort, being
tho pamphlet described. The pur¬
chaser of the pamphlet is a bibliophile
of international reputation. The sale
Avas negotiated through a well-known
Noav York book dealer.
For generations the pamphlet had
lain, obscure and unvalued, in an un¬
important private library, It was
generally supposed that only two
copies of Washington’s first essay in
authorship existed, and within the
past fifteeu years both of these copies
had come up for sale—one of them in
the Brinley auction of 1832 fetching
$G50, and the other being bought for
a large price by the Lenox Library
Trustees. —Xbav York Sun.
The Sea In Flames.
When, a few years ago, some of the
Russian grand dukes honoied Baku, a
( town on the Caspian, Avith their pres-
ence, the governor had naphtha thinly
poured over the surface of the sea for
a very considerable distance.
About 9 o’clock in the evening the
inflammatory substance was ignited
and a bluish conflagration spread it¬
self over the waves of the mighty
deep.
To increase the splendor of the
scene a slight breeze arose, the sea
became agitated and the billows rua-
jestically heaved without any too vio¬
lent commotion. Such a matrimonial
alliance, if I may use the term, of fire
and Avater, Avas perhaps never before
Avitnessed. The flames literally danced
on the waves, blending all their magic
beauty with the splashing restlessness
of the limpid antagonist. The dark
green color of the Caspian shone by
the reflection of the subdued light
riling bodily on the very foam of the
surface.
At length the gale increased, the
naphtha covering became more and
more broken and the glowing carpet
extended over a great distance of the
sea, gradually assuming-the aspect of
so many jack-o’-lanterns.
A mazy ballet of gradually extin¬
guishing wiil-o’-the-wisps closed the
wonderful spectacle. One hour after
its commencement the watery element

A Non-Bmstbbing Mustard Puas-
>ter —In making a mustard plaster
take a piece of lard and stir the dry
mustard into the lard until it is a
thick paste and will just spread.
Spread on a piece of lawn and apply to
the affected part. This will not blister.
Boot Blacking—T he best black¬
ing for boots is orange juice. Take ft
slice or quarter of an orange and rub
it on the shoe or boot; brush then, till .when the
dry, brush Avith a soft
shoe shine like a looking glass.
For Acid Discolorations—I f the
juice of a lemon or any acid fruit
has taken the color from gown or
apron, it may be restored by touching
the spot with household ammonia. If
soils or the like has caused the same
trouble, touch with vinegar.
To Free the House of Ants —To
free a house from ants, sprinkle fine
white sugar on a large sponge. W hen
full of ants drop into boiling water.
To drive away ants, scrub the sheWes
or draAvers that they frequent with
strong carbolic soap, after which
sprinkle red pepper in every crevice.
Getting Rid OF Roaches.—
Sprinkle poAvdered borax plentifully
down into their hiding places wher-
e\’er they may be, and in a week, or
before A r ery long, they will disappear.
Oil of cedar will kill roaches. Put
the oil into an atomizer and spray all
the cracks and crevices in the wall
and places Avhere they inhabit. This is
a sure way to kill them.
Turpentine in the Household.—
Turpentine is the best friend house¬
keepers have and a supply should be
always kept ou hand. It is good for
burns, excellent for corns, good for
rheumatism and sore throat, and a
quick remedy for fits and couAUilsions.
It is a sure preventive against moths,
a feAV drops rendering garments safe
from such invasion during the sum¬
mer. It drives aAvay ants and bugs
from cupboards and corners by put¬
ting a fcAV drops on the shelves. It
effectually destroys bugs, and injures
neither furniture nor clothing. For
cleaning paint add a spoonful to a pail
of warm Avater. A little in the suds
on washday makes Avashing easier
A Kitchen Convenience. —A small,
flat paint brush, about one inch in
Avidth, is a kitchen convenience that
no houseAvife should be without. For
the greasing of all pans it is both
neater and more effectual than the
usual bit of paper. Also, if all meats
\v f re brushed oA T er with SAveet oil and
vinegar before sending to the refriger¬
ator they would retain their juices and
flavor far more perfectly than is com¬
monly the case.

To all women who are ill:—It af¬

the benefit I have derived from tak-
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. I can hardly find words to
express my gratitude for the boon
given to suffering women in that ex¬
cellent remedy. Before taking the
Compound
I was thin,

nervous. I jgj

my men-

riods were
very irreg- f

tried three phy¬
sicians and gradually grew --- worse.
About a year ago I was advised by a
friend to try Mrs. Pinkham s Sanative
Wash and Vegetable Compound, which
I did. After using three bottles of
the \ egetable Compound and one pack-
age of Sanative Wash, I am now enjoy¬
ing better health than I ever did. aiid
attribute the same to your wonderful
remedies. I cannot find words to ex¬
press what a Godsend they have been
to me.
V> henever I begin to feel nervous and
ill, I know I have a never-failing phy¬
sician at hand. It would afford me
pleasure to know that my words had
directed some suffering sister to health
and strength through those most ex-
cellent remedies.—Miss May Sacbsee,
