The Woman's Hotel has now been open sew
eral months, and it must be acknowledged
that the result of the experiment is not very
encouraging to Mrs. Stewart, who has SO
nobly carried out tho ideas of her deceased
husband. Possessing accommodations for
upward Of o thousand guests, less than one
hundred ladies have availed themselves of
its superb advantages, and its books every
week show, Of course, very heavy loss.
Mrs. Stewart and the managers have done
everything they possibly could to insure
the success Of the scheme but if tho persons
it was intended to benefit refuse to second
their efforts the only course left is to aban-
don the idea that led to its establishment.
From the very beginning the plan and
scope of the hotel have been misrepresented
and consequently misunderstood. In the
first place it is not a charitable institution
and was not intended to be one. The
amount charged is sufficient to cover ex-
penses, provided the building was fully
occupied. 1t is simply first class hotel,
bring profit to its owner. In other words,
Mrs. Stewart makes q present to its guests
OF the profits that under ordinary circum-
stances would be derived from such IN es-
tablishment. Again, the rules of the house
have been misinterpreted. They are pre-
cisely the rules of every first class establish
ment in the country. The only difference
is that in the one case they are printed and
in the other they are not. They are the un-
written law of every leading hotel, and
their infraction insures the same penalty as
in the Stewart building. The idea of the
founder is SO excellent in every way that IL
is pity it should be defeated, as now seems
probable, owing to the non-co-operationo of
the class 1t was proposed to serve. lii
should be closed they will see when too late
the blunder they have made. 1t cannot be
expected that Mrs. Stewart will persevero
in an effort to benefit people who decline to
be benefited She has thus far nobly per-
formed her part Of the contract, and 1t is
cartainlv dishanrtanina tn fnd that har

as taking part with him in his impeachment
of Texas justice, but simply as giving the

Houillion, the Texas lawyer, tried on .
charge of murder and condemned to be
hanged, has escaped the penalty Of the law
by INJECTING on himself death which, If
less ignominious than that by the rope, COM
pensates for this quality by tho fact that 1t
is certainly far more painful. 1t will be re-
membered that this man, while in prison
awaiting the day assigned for his execution,
addressed to the HERALD protest against
the method and results Of his trial-which
declared that to kill him for what he had
done would be the only murder in the case,
as the man who had persisted by his
hand was killed in fracas and in self
defanna- We published his staiamanL nnt

generous plans and purposes have met with
SO much indifference if not absolute oppo-


His story was told by reporter under
the stress Of making s'copy" for the insatiate
and memorable printer, and not by poet
with genius and time to spare. That makes
great difference in its effectiveness 1t
even so far distorts the narrative that we
are moved to laughter instead of tears. The
truly pathetic element in it is yelled. The
touching incongruities Of the madman's
actions are made to do duty as humor
which has the homogeneous at its base. He
was not knight but plain Lawrence Cody,
of Paterson, N. j. He loved in vain q
beautiful and wealthy maiden of that busy
town, and his delicious passion turned his
brain. He sang her praises night and
day, and night or two ago he wandered
into the theatre, and at the fall OF the
curtain on "The Celebrated Case" sprang
upon the stage and cursed priest who, he
said, had promised to marry him to the lady
of his love. No one could see the pathos Of
this, so, amid the jeers of the audience, he
was elected by the police. He is probably
by this time in lunatic asylum. Alas,
poor Lawrence The poets could not help
him; but how similar is his story to the one
of the miserable Knight" in that most
exquisite of all love poems in our language,
wherein Coleridge tells of the wooing and
winning of Genevieve! Who has not shed
tears in his sympathetic days over the
Knight that for ten long years had wooed the
Lady of the Land? Who has not felt
angered when the numbers told
The cruel scorn
That crazed the bold and lovely knight,
And that he crossed tho mountain-woods,
Nor rested day nor night
Perhaps the pathetic effect lies most in
the fact that the poor Knights love is at last
requited, though too late to save his life
And how she wept and clasped his knees;
And how she tended him IA vain-
And ever strove to expiato
The scorn that crazed his brain.
The poet, You see, could end the story as
he pleased. He placed it, too, in the remote
chiyalric age and laid the scene amid wilds
such as existed two or three hundred years
ago where Paterson now is, and not in the
crowded theatre of busy town, with po-
licemen at the elbow of his Knight and o
lunatic asylum in the distance If you
smile at the eccentricities Of poor Sir Law
renee, of Paterson, do not repress sigh at
his luckless fate To be pierced by the
thorn of virgin rose or to be stung by o
common nettle-to 60 mad from love or
from vulgar cares-means suffering all the
same. But it is ever sad to find bane in the
beautiful, even when beauty is unconscious
Of its fatal power.

Dangerous Distractions ON Third

Avenue.
The progress Of the construction of the
elevated railroad on Third avenue does not
warrant the contractors in using the public
highway as storage place for their Orders.
1t is necessary to place these Orders
parallel to the line Of the track for con-
venience in hosting them into position,
but we SEQ no reason why they should
be placed there far in advance Of
the work of construction, and SO as
to form dangerous distractions to traffic.
We have noticed that the carriers drop their
loads of girders on the street way without
any regard for the rights of the public, and
leave them in such positions as to make
them positive danger to passing carts,
wagons and even pedestrians. The Orders
should not be laid fiat and askew
in the narrow spaces outside the lines Of
columns 30 as to take up oil the
roadway. They should be laid on
edge against and outside the columns, so
as to give all tho space possible between
them and the sidewalks. In this position
they would be ready for singing and hoist
ing into place on the columns. The Gill
bert Elevated Railroad Companys con-
tractors did not obstruct Sixth ave-
nue. as we find Third avenue block
AIDED. The contractors have no right
whatever to obstruct the highways when
carry ing out their work, and they must be
taught to regard the permission to deposit
their Orders on the street as privilege that
cannot be abused with impunity and that
may be Withdrawn when abused. We are
anxious to see the Elevated Railroad Com
pany afforded oil facilities for carrying out
their work, but not at the expense Of any
public right.

Newspapers and Crowned Heads.

Newspapers and Crowned Heads.
We have known that the Presidents of the
United States are very particular to keep
themselves well informed upon what the
newspapers ore saying, and some Of them
have had couple Of secretaries whose sole
duty it was to mark and read newspaper
articles for the Chief Executive of the Re-
public. It is we'll known also that the
British Queen has been keenly atten-
tive to the opinions of the press,
as may be seen in the sLife of the
Prince Consort." Napoleon III. was and
Prince Bismarck is close student of the
drifts of opinion as seen in the journals not
only Of their own countries but of the civil
lied world at large. Not the least interest
ing thing in our St. Petersburg correspond
ent's letter, published on Saturday, anent
the candidates for the succession to Prince
Gortschakoff, was his statement of
the duties Of one candidate who stands
q good chance, Minister Vanouiew. Every
day after the imperial family have dined it
is, it seems, the custom for the Ministers to
arrive at the Palace, each bearing o number
of newspaper extracts pasted on cardboard.
These are handed to tho Gear, and after
His Majesty has looked them over Minister
vanouiew carries them to the apartments of
the Empress and there reads them over, COM
menting as he goes along. So it is that the
newspaper makes its power felt everywhere.
The sheet that is hurried through the
streets of the cities by newsboys and is read
and noted by the humble is carried in state
by Cabinet Ministers, its articles pasted on
cardboard, to the foot of the most auto
cratic throne in the world, to be conned
oyer with careful eye Yet the flippant
and the self-sufficient, who have no ideas Of
their own, but many from the newspapers,
often affect to sneer at the power Of the
press.
