Hiidtlenlv In New York*
Mr. riant had not been sick since
last November, when, on returning
from a trip from Florida, he waa sml
deuiy seized in bis private car in tbo
Jersey 'f’ily railway station at which
time bis life whs dopnived of, but
lie revived nnd went back to Florida,
whore lie lias been able to attend to
Iiis various business interests during
tbo winter teaBOn. His death was so
sudden as to havo surprised oven
those closest to him.
Itrlof SI* ft tell of III* Lift*,
Mr. I’Dmt was a native of Conn, oli-
cut, and was born at Branford on
October i!7tli, 1819. lie came of n
long line of Puritan nuecstois, and
among the forefathers w ere men who
fought for tho independence of the
country in which they all became far
torn more or less prominent during
their days. from England in
His ancestry enmo
lfi.'lil, nnd nearly everyone occupied
some position of honor aud trust. On
his grandmother’s side he was descend
ed from JoBeph Frisboe, who was a
major in Washington's army, the same
fuwiiy that gave Harvard its profes-
sor, Levi Frinbee. Through the 1'iis
hoes he was related toNir William IVp
peroll, Bart, aud tho same strain gave
him a kinship with tho late Ben-
ator Hoar, whose middle name was
Erisliee. Like the maternal side of
his house, Mr. Plant's paternal minis¬
try figured pruiuiueutty wherever they
were known.
For over two hundred years the
Plants resided at Branford, and on the
lands which were given them hy Ihe
crown their descendants still reside,
and nil, like the late railroad king, are
men prominent in the section of the
country in which they reside. Mr.
J’lant's father died while lie was quite
young, nnd at the time of that death
Mr. l’laut was himself quite ill, so ill
that he was not informed of his father’s
death uutil several days after it oc¬
curred.
Why 11*' Canto Sou!it,
In 1853 Mrs. l’laut was seized with
congestion of tho lungs, aud the fami¬
ly physicians ordered/l ull sh e he taken
to Fionua; irTo^.'ois was the inception
of Mr. Blunt's connection with the
south and the work lie lias accomplish-

left New York with his invalid wife on

into the territory of the Adams Ex¬
press company, and no more profitable
territory was to be found than that
discovered by Mr. Plant.
The entire southern field was under
his direction, and when the civil war

Important evidence bearing upon
the queatlon of responalblllty for the
of hostilities In the Philip¬

spondence sent by Mr. G. W. Peters.
It shows that even the most brutal of

were Informed of the intention to sup¬
ply them with "all the American bends
they could enrry home” long befor the
attack was begun or war declared.
Looking from his prison window In
tho town of Calooean, on the first day
of February, Mr. Peters made a
sketch of the Iggorotes. A score of
these savages, fully armed, and with
their naked bodies painted In various
colors, forced their way into Ills cell
In the Calooean prison, where for sev¬
eral hours they practiced on him tho
preliminary motions In their favorite
methods of putting enemies to death.
This was, of course, In the.nature of-n
rehearsal, but there seemed nt the
time no sufficient reason for believing
that the performance would be long
delayed. The “twenty howling savage
devils,” to adopt the phrase used by
the correspondent, were dancing about
him for hours, now touching him with
the points of their spears, now
threatening to cut him down with their
machetes, and again swinging their
terrible llgua (a kind of battle-axe or
tomahawk) so thut Its keen edge
barely grazed his neck. Then follow-
ed an unmistakable representation of
thrusting the long point of the axe
Into the ociput and carrying a v ay u;
bead in triumph. Mr. Peters thinks it
probable that they would have killed
him, but for the opportune arrival of a
Filipino captain. This native officer

and four of them are deemed worthy
of the sportsman’s attention. These
four species Include the king-rail, the
clapper rail, the Virginia rail and the
sora. The yellow rail and the little
black rail are too rare nnd too small
to rank as game birds.
The sora, or Carolina rati, differs
broadly In coloration from the sober
brown of its immediate relatives. It
measures about nine inches in length,
and has rather striking markings
when in the full spring plumage. It is
a sumnjcr resident, its range including
“temperate” North America, most com-
mon east of the great plains. It goes
south In the winter, to the West Indies
and northern South America. The
nest is made in cover upon the ground,
the eges being drab with darker mark-
ings. It breeds frdm the Middle States
northward. Its flesh is rather dainty
In flavor. Among its more common
names, and it Is a much named bird,
are rail, tail-bird, Carolina crake, com-
mon rail, sora rail, English rail, chick-
en-blll, and soroe.
The most common method of shoot¬
ing this bird is at high tide from the
bow of a boat which ts poled through
the flooded cover hy a man in the
stern. This sport has many eager fol‘-
lowers, but the shooting is almost
easy for experts to enthuse over. A
light 12-gauge, or something
will answer all purposes. In the
the negroes have fun aud make a trifle
of money by “fire-hunting” for
rail With torches of fat-pine and
of stiff brush.—Outing.
