MENT AND IMPROVEMENT.

CITY HOTEL-( BARNUM'S IRIS ENLARGE
MENT AND IMPROVEMENT.
Messrs. Barnum & Co., the proprietors of this ex-
tensve hotel so long and so avoraby known through
out the whole extent of our country, for the able
and thoroughly efficient manner in which il has been
conducted, have during the past few months been
making such additions and Improvements as to enable
them to accommodate much increased number OF
guests with facilities for their comfortable and agree
able entertainment which cannot fail to add to the
already extended popularity of the house.
Since last spring, the block of buildings which
rechcd from the then termination Of the hotel on
Fayette street up to ST. Paul's street, with the two
old fashioned dwellings which fronted the latter
street, have been torn down, and on their settle, &C.
cupying 1876 feet Fayctte and al feet ST. Paus
street, have been erected spacious additions to the
hotel four stories in height, finished in the most SUI
perior and substantial manner, and painted light
cream color corresponding with the exterior appear
ance of the other portions OF the house. With this
addition the hotel now fronts 100 feet on Calvert
street, running from Fayette street TO Bank alley 36i
feet on Fayete street, occupying the whole square
from Calvert 10 ST. Pau's street "A feet on st. Paul
street. and 200 feet Bank lane; thus covering
nearly the whole superficial surface embraced with
in Calvert and St. Paus streets, and Fayette street
and Bank Lane; the probabilities being that the
whole space thus enclosed will in no heightened
space of time be entirely occupied by this leviahan
establishment
OF the addition made, portion of tho lower floor
has been thrown into the ladies' dining saloon, giving
il length of 81 feet. This saloon has been newly
fitted up in style oil appropriate elegance which we
suppose has hardly been cxcelled in this country
Beyond this again the first floor has been divided
into offices suited for lawyers and others, fronting
Fayettc street, and two commodious and elegantly
fitted up ST. Paul's street, Of which has
been completed and is already occupied. On the
second, third and fourth floors large portion of the
addition has been divided into bed chambers, sitting
rooms, sc. The number Of rooms which have thus
been added to the house is ffty-two, making the
whole number of rooms in the house, exclusive of the
dining saloons, drawing rooms, parlors, NC, two
hundred and fifty. The rooms which have beef
added are all extremely commodious, well Lighted
and ventilated and suited by their size and arrange

Our Ability TO Paw.

At the end of the war Of 1912, our
debt was $l4o,ooo,o 900, in 1917, an.
act was passed appropriating $io,ooO,-
900, annually, for the payment Of that
debt. Under that act, the debt (prin.
cipal and interest," was paid offin eigh-
teen years. Our population, during
these eighteen years, was increasing
from 100000 14,5oo,ooo. For the
eighteen years, from 184S,our numbers
will range from 24,ooo 900 to ss,0oe,-
600. The average of the first period
was 11,95o,o0o; for the second period
it will be eo,ooo,ooo. A debt of$seo,-
100000 may. therefore, be paid. with
the same amount of tax for each indi.
vidual, as was paid from 1917 to 1885.
But our wealth has increased faster.
than our number, so that, in fact, our
means of payment have quadrupled

the event Of the animals escaping, as
his vicious character was we'll known.
Loaded muskels were also placedin the
saloon OF the building for the use Of
those who were in the side boxes en-
deayoring to catch the elephant.
At length a plan was suggested by
Mr.. ]. J.. Na,hans, of Wslsh's National
Circus, which proved successful, being
similar 10 that used in Charleston, a few
years ago.. A strong rope was tied in ?
running moose in such a,aposiiion that
the elephant, in running at those who
placed it in its position, must tread in
the moose. This he did, and immedi-
ately the persons who had hold Of the
rope pulled, and succeeded in catching
him by one Of the fore-legs; a strong
force was at once mustered, and efforts
made to pull him TO the recess at the
south west corner of the building; but
the animal, now more furious than EVER
ran towards the boxes which descend
from the front gallery to the arena, and
in e%ndeavering to ascend, crushed the
steps, &c. to atoms with his immense
weight, tearing up the benches on either
side Of him as far up as one-fourth of
the ascent, hurting the pieces at the
same time in every direction, and leav-
ing the place a perfect wreck. Find
ing that it would not sustain his weight
he retreated into the arena, where, af-
ter some trouble, q number of large
hooks attached to ropes, were very a.
droitly fastened into his ears, and he
was then hauled up into the recess be-,
fore mentioned, where, by the selt-pos-
session and courage of Herr Driesbach,
he was completely subdued. '.'"
During the enactment Of all these ex-
citing and alarming scenes, the Mayor,
accompanied by a number Of the pol.
ice, made his appearance, and gave
such orders as the circumstances of the
case called for, and the police were sta
toned in the front:and in the rear Of the
building on George street. Two six
Founders were placed, one in front and
the other at the back of the Menagerie
with a view 10 shoot the animal should
he attempt to make his exit at either
point. A number of small arms Were
also brought, tosbe used inthe event of
the smaller animals escaping from their
cages. Fortunately, however, there
was no necessity for using them. Not
less than two thousand persons were
assembled outside the building, and a.
bout fifty in the interior Of it; and the
crowd did not dispense till about SIX o.
clock in the evening. a''59. '-tn n
