GIVING STEWART TAFFY.
One ofProctor KNOTS Stories,

Hon. J. Proctor Knott, of Kentucky,
IS d delightful raconteur. He has a
world of good stories, and he spins
them in way that betters them Seat
ed among a party OF friends, one day,
he related one which isn't among the
worst:
A number of years ago a party of
Kentuckians swooped down upon New
York city @a-seein' Of the sights" Sew
eral of them were from the interior OF
the State and had never been as far
East before, while the leader, shrewd
city citizen, GLIB Of tongue, piloted the
party through ways that were queer
and tricks that were equally SO. They
happened upon Mr.. Knott at one of the
hotels and claimed him for their own.
He was the very man they were looking
for. Every sight Of the great city had
been seen except A. L. Stewart, the
merchant prince. Wouldn't he intro
duce them?" The hero of Duluth pro-
tested that Stewart knew nothing and
cared less for a country Congressman
like himself, and had to decline. He
finally convinced the delegation that he
couldn't accompany them, and they
filed slowly out of his room, after ex-
pressing determination to seek out
and see the elephant on their own hook.
Later in the evening Mr.. Knott sat in
parquette seat in Niblos Garden, in
tently watching the show. While gaz-
ing around at the strange faces that
lined the seats and peered from the gal
leries, he was startled by bow from
the most elegant box in the tier. An
other head, dimly outlined against the
rich interior, courtesied, and his embar-
rassment and curiosity became painful
in its intensity. A third person nodded
and smiled, and then only did he recog-
nize his Kentucky friends lolling around
in the luxurious quarters perfectly at
ease. At the head of the delegation was
A. T.. Stewart himself, patronizing and
attentive
"How did you manage it?" asked the
Congressman of the leader next day.
easy enough. We deliberately
walked into his private Office after leav-
ing you and introduced ourselves We
went on to say that we were from Ken
lucky and had arrived in New York on
an extensive pleasure trip, during which
we expected to see a majority of the
great men America had produced. We
elaborated with glowing phrase and
rounded period, and all that, how we
had seen Grant and the other big dogs
at Washington, but it was the unani-
nous ver( jet of the party that we
shouldn't return home until we had seen
the Napoleon of commerce, A. T. Stew.
art The old gentleman was carried
away with the liberal supply of .taffy
and when we left it was only on condi
ton that we should return later in the
afternoon. We did SO, and found an
elegant supper spread in the private
Office, after eating which we were whirled
away in carriages to Niblo's Garden
and led into the private box where you
saw us"

n ReprOGea TO american Hotels.
N. Y. San.

The Lancet of Londor, one of the fore
most medical journals in the world, warns
all travellers of the dangers which it says
attend heightened stay ip an American
or Canadian hotel. The plumbing arrange
ments are declared to be defective in many
cases, and conspicuously bad in others.
Frequently there are no traps at all under
the basins, or, where there are traps, the
pattern is said to be such as to afford no
safeguard against the introduction OF
sewer gas into the apartment.
Indeed, it would seem that even a short
sojourn in hotel of this description would
suffice to SOW the seeds of disease: and q
correspondent of the Lancet AYERS that he
was made seriously ill by sleeping only one
night in room where there was a fixed
basin communicating directly with the
sewer without any intervening trap. He
kept the windows wide open, and filed the
basin with water on retiring, but the whole
OF the water was sucked out through the
waste pipe during the inight, and the
presence of sewer gss was plain in the
morning. ''It is dangerous" says the wri-
ter, ''for any adult to reside in a hotel with
such imperfect sanitary arrangements
and the air of the room would not improb.
ably cause death to delicate child"
Now. this is a matter about which Amer.
lean hotel keepers should be very sensi
tive. We do not mean that they should
resent these statements as being untrue OF
exaggerated, for we believe there is a gooG
deal too much truth in them. But on,
landlords should be sensitive enough te
such criticism to reform the evils thus
pointed out. It is no answer or excu. e t.
say that We know of scores OF hotels il
Great Britain which are no better or yer,
much worse; or to point to the numerous
hotels on the continent of Europe whose
sanitary condil is shameful. The cues
ton now under discussion concerns on,
own hotels; and there 'ougis not to be {
single one in the United States of which
the statements of our distinguished medi
cal contemporary could be true.
AS matter of fact, we have reason t.
believe that there are many hotels in thi.
very city which are anything but health re
sorts-hotels, indeed, which people hai
better keep out of, if they want to kee,
their health,
