NEW YoRg, Sept G,--New York city is not
wholly without attractions in the summer.
Among them arc the swimming baths. II
these were only to accommodate men, they
would be lacking in interest, for men can
swim in any sort of a pond, sheltered or I'M
But swimming is a comparatively new art for
women, and, as jet, needs various helps nj
comforts to make 1t alluring.
The swimming bath which / patronize is
down on the Battery, just below Castle Gar
den. The way thither is not beguiling, al
though the fresh dir from the sea meets one,
and Battery park is fine in its summer foliage.
feature of the trip. He is there in all his
native filth, smoking pipes with doors strong
enough to take the breath from a hackman.
His children are there, vilely dirty and scan
tily clothed. His wife is there, very dirty,
also, and somewhat hungry-looking. The
parks benches are always full of these new
candidates for fortune in the land of the free.
They are not inspiring objects TO look upon,
and a sensitive person feels their atmosphere
of detection and misery.
A little bridge leads across to the bath, y
long. boat-like house in the water, which is
evenly divided into a swimming bath for
meli and one for women. Hot salt water
baths are also a feature of this very useful
Institution. This boat-like house on the waters
arrives ut the Battery on the list of June, and,
securing its summers privileges there by pay
ing q rousing rent to the authorities, it opens
its doors to the public at % cents a BATH, ten
cents extra for a bathing suit, and a hot bath
for 40 cents.
During the month of June it isn't very well
patronized, but through July and August
everybody bathes, and bathes often. The
baths are open from 6 o'clock in the morning
until 10 at night, electric light helping on the
glorious work after dark. The women's bath
is conducted by women, Office work and all.
The bath is about thirty feet wide and forty
long. On three sides it has a double row of
dressing rooms, for it is two-storied struc-
ture. Little galleries run all around it, from
which steps lead down into the water. Hori-
zontal and perpendicular ropes are here and
there ready to 30 grabbed, and cross pieces
on the corners make little pens for the timid
to splash around in dnd feel safe. In the
center OF the pool is little round platform
reached by steps going UP out of the water.
Thereon the boldest of the fair climb and then
drop recllessly into the water again, coming
down with a great splash, exciting tia admi-
ration of the less daring and coming UP

Coal Barges Damaged and Sunk.

PITTsBURG May AT 5:45 o'clock this morn
ing $50 600 of property in coal barges was sunk
in the MoDongahela river, between dam No 1
and the point bridge. The wreckage is strewn
along both the Monongahela and Ohio rivers for
several miles. The of the disaster was the
sudden and rapid rise in the river The coal
men were looking for high water but it came
sooner than they expected. At $50 o'clock this
morning fuel fat which had broken from its
moorings somewhere up the river came drifting
rapidly down the swiftly running stream, which
was rising at the rate of six inches an hour
Just below the dam it struck against feet of
twelve barges belonging to the Marmet Coal
Company, of Cincinnati. The force of the shock
was so great that the lines were parted and the
entire tow started down the river. Before the
runaways had gone far they encountered twenty
barges belonging to ONeil & Co.. and, further
down. three barges of the Birmingham Coal
Company and one each of Brown g. Sons and
Sneathen g. Wilson. The steamboats, Fred Will
son and Dippold started in pursuit. but they only
saved eleven of the barges. The other twenty
seven were sunk, and their contents strewn
along the river. No further damage occurred.
The losses are as follows Marmet Company,
thirteen barges sunk, $4,000; O'Neil & Co., nine
barges sunk, six barges damaged, $4,000
Birmingham Company, three barges sunk, 81
500; W. H. Brown, one barge, $1,000; Sneathen
& Wilson, one barge, ST 900. There are 100000
bushels of coal now awaiting shipment A

next forty eight hours

Here the proletariat has its headquarters. How
shall these dens be broken up2 The first requi
site is adequate sanitary legislation and regular

should be permitted. The Peabody plan of pro-

is indefensbe, because even the poorest should

The only remedy in such cases is to save the

OF placing premium upon parental neglect must
be avoided. One of the gravest evils of the low

Home can hardly be said to exist. Promiscuous
sexual intercourse is more nearly the rule than
the exception. Incest and unnatural vices are
common. No reform can be radical and perma-
nent that does not include the maintenance of
coniugal and parental responsibility. The aban-
doned children must not be permitted to suffer,
but the abandonment must be reduced to the
narrowest limit by laws guarding domestic re-
