or rather alley foot-ways, than canals, by
means Of which one may find his way ali

vehicles OF any kind. There are, in fact.
only three horses to the entire CITY. The
streets are very narrow indeed, saw from

A DEAD OLD CITY.
That Venice is city of the past is
everywhere apparent. Even the grand
paintings portraying the magnificence of
oid Venice, her kingly robed Doees. her
fleets engaged in battles and her street
parades can serve only as sad reminders
to her present populace of their fallen
state. There are but few signs of present
prosperity anywhere. There is but little
shlpplng lying at the docks. There are
lew outward signs of manufacture to be
seen. Ihere are no new public or pri-
vate improvements in process of constrllc-
ton. ~
Venice is beautiful city from only
one point Of view, the gondola in
the grand canal Or in the lagoons. In no
other city that | have been have | seen
shch universal squalor as prevails here in
the appearance of the houses and the
dress and conduct of the natives. Walks

home was a nasty place on account of
the reckless deposit of human filth every
where, but in Venice one must indeed
take heed how he walks. Byron, the
Sybarite, looked not on such scenes as
These. His gaze fell only on the beautiful
side ofthe city, hence his many beautiful
tributes to her loveliness, for while from
behind the scenes-her narrow, dark and
damp foot-ways-she is ugly, Venice from
well chosen point of view is the perfect
realization of enchantlnent. Hereafter
when l think of Venice will try to for
get the reality of her ugliness and re-
member only the beautiful mask that she
wears.

FAILURE OF NATHAN HILLES

THE PRESIDENT OF THEGAs TRUST IN
voLvED-HIs DIsowNMENT BY THE
SOCIETY OF FRIENDS.
The announcement of the failure of
Nathan Hilles, President of the Board of
Trustees of the Philadelphia Gas Works.
late President of the Second National
Bank, and the head of. various business
institutions, is surprise to the commu-
NIFTY, which by reason of his integrity be-
slowed upon him the fullest confidence
but during the last two years he has met
with reyerses, which have eliminated in
his downfall. He was leading Ortho-
dox Friend, and as member of that So
clety was treasurer and one of the Com
mlttee on Grievances of the Frankford
and Germantown meetings, manager of
the Friends Asylum, manager of the
Wright Institute and Free Library, and
trustee of number of estates. lie has
represented his ward in both Select and
Common Councils, is now President of
tho School Board of the twenty-third
ward, was member of the Board of
Education, is now director of the Fifth
and Sixth Streets Passenger Railway,
Treasurer of the Harrisburg Gas Light
and Fuel Company, director in the Asy-
lum Turnpike Company Was President
of the Buck Mountain Coal Company,
and held many other positions of trust.
The liabilities ofAIr. Hilles are estima-
ted at $500, 700, while his assets are value
less. He organized the Harrisburg Gas
Light and Fuel Company about two years
ago, and invested literally. Litigation
and bad management brought disaster to
the corporation, and to this enterprise
the friends of Mr.. Hilles attribute his
downfall. The Second National Bank, of
which he was President for long time,
is his creditor for nearly $1,000, but
this amount, it appears, is amply secured
to the bank. lie still kept an account
at the bank, ,and his transactions with the
Harrisburg Gas Light and Fuel Company
were in fact carried ON through thai insti
tuition. Some time ago he drew two
checks of nearly equal amounts as trea-
surer ofthe Gas Company on Harris
burg bank for sums aggregating $1,000.
These checks were cashed by the Second
National Bank, and afterwards were re-
turned protested. On the 9th of last May
through its attorney, Edward r. Worreil
the bank brought suit for SO, 100 "a. Judg
ment was obtained simultaneously with
a judgment IN favor of the Gloucester
Iron Company for $1,000, and the Court
ordered the Harrisburg Gas Works to be
sold and the proceeds brought into Court
for apportionment to the creditors hold
ing the judgments. The Ssale took place
Friday in Harrisburg.
