FROM A SPANISH MODEL.

This portion is comparatively quiet, and is
mainly occupied by resident guests.
In the south there is a new beginning in
the building Of hotels upon the lines Of
Spanish architecture, and a cut Of a fine
sample Of this sort is given. Great GOODNESS
and picturesque lines Of structure commend
this plan
The American hotel has taken root in Eng
land. The English hotel Of forty years ago
is as much dwarfed in comparison with her
new mammoth structures as is the case with
American hotels. On Trafalgar square, In
London, for many years stood the old resi-
dence of the Duke of Northumberland, with
a stone British lion over its center 1t was
venerated by Englishmen, but the march Of
events was sufficient to destroy even their
reverence, and today in place of the ducal
residence is a great hotel on the American
plan. Surely if some English squire Of the
Eighteenth century should go to London and
be directed to this mammoth hostelry on
Charing Cross he would no more know how
to behave himself than Sioux Indian in the
Palmer house at Chicago.

How Tigers Kill.

Mr.. Inverarity, who is an enthusiastic
hunter of large game, has been reading
paper before the Bombay Natural History
society in which he discusses the habits of
the tiger and more especially the mode III
which It kills and eats its prey. He tells us
that the awful stroke of the forepaw, of
which we have heard so much in terrible
tiger stories, is a fiction The animal
clutches with its claws as does a human be-
ing with his fingers, but he does not use his
paw to strike blow. The throat of the vic
tim is generally seized from below, and death
ensues from pressure Of the windpipe rather
than from any actual wound.
Mr. mverarity believes that the victims
suffer little or no pam, the sudden shock Of
attack producing q stupor and dreaminess in
which there is no sense of pain or terror
Incidentally, he quotes the inquest report
upon native who was killed in Salsette by
q tiger, from which it seems that extraor-
binary verdicts are by no means confined to
more civilized countries The report stated
that Pandoo died of the tiger eating him;
there was no other cause of death. Nothing
was left but some fingers, which probably
belonged to the Ri hit or left hand Cham

Sheep Jnterest.
ARETROSPECTlvE VIEW OF SHEEP
HUSBANDRY.

While some have grown weary OF walt
ing for the turn of tide in sheep ana
wool. we are pleased to note that there
are vet a goodly number that have con-
timed in the faith, and who, even at the
lowest ebb, have not allowed their Hooks
to deteriorate. We only wish this num-
her were numerically stronger, for, with
the pluck and determination possessed by
such, sheep husbandry in America can
not do otherwise than succeed.
1t is natural and befitting, now that we
are about to enter into the beginning or
the new year, that the intelligent breeder
be inclined to review the past ana look
forward to the future with thought OF
correcting errors, and applying such rem
edies as experience suggests and as CIR
cumstances will permit, that in the year
to come will enable him to make his
pursuit financial success.
The necessity of this review is, this
wear. especially imperative. Some of
the causes, other than tariff matters, that
have assisted in the chronicling of the
wear of 1888 as one of depression have
several times been discussed at length
though the columns of this paper, and
therefore we give them but passing men,
ton. Mistaken ideas, lack of experience,
vacillation of purpose, and above all, mis-
management, which term covers many
errors, all these have brought about I'M
told losses, both on western ranges and
eastern farms, and have proved power
full and undisputed factor in the i'll sue
cess attending the efforts of many.
The general outlook, however, for
more prosperous season during 1889, can
not be denied even by the most conserva-
tive, and, with reasonable assurance OF
friendly legislation. that the danger OF a
reduction of the tariff on wool is re-
moved. let all flock owners arouse from
the stupor in which they seem to have
relapsed and with unanimity of pur'
pose apply themselves to the reform
which is needed by first studying closely
their environments and the material al
their disposal, paying no heed whatever
to the bland voice of the politician, bu,
working out their own salvation on the
basis of economical production and small
margins. The American Wool Reporter
believes in the old Latin proverb, stn,ittc
similtbus curant,u, and feels confident
that success will be achieved in following
the advice which it Offers American
Wool Reporter.

time to ring It. Dickens has given US some
of the best pictures we have of the English
inn of that period, and has left an inerasable
portrait of the English groom, the boots"
of former days, in Sam Weller. Indeed,
there is many picture throughout Dickens
works of inn comfort that almost causes one
to regret that the coy English receptacle for
travellers does not exist today
What change from the hotel of 1880 to
1850 is the American hotel of today The
Aston house in New York was one Of the first
of the larger habitations for travels-s in the
United States In its earlier day 1t lowered
above the surrounding buildings, and was a
curiosity to those who visited New York,
especially from the west Now instead Of
towering over its neighbors it looks diminu-
tive in the shadow Of the immense postofiice
building opposite or in contrast with the ele-
phantine Western Union building several
blocks south of it. Then came the Metro
politan and the St Nicholas, the latter now
torn away to make room for business struct-
ures, and lastly the Fifth Avenue, and within
perhaps decade the Windsor.
Perhaps the Windsor, of New York, and
the Palmer house, of Chicago, may be Sc
lected for two as fine specimens of eastern
and western hotels as exist. The Windsor is
spacious, genteel, comfortable looking;
worthy to be set upon Murray Hill where
there are SO many brown stone fronts and SC
many wealthy people who have brought com
fort to the very highest attainable degree.
The Palmer house is more typical of the
west. Its architecture is more snowy; in
deed clumsy. 1t is of two separate parts
neither of which in the slightest degree re
sembles the other in architecture The main
part was built for hotel, and is fireproof. IL

This was not always so. The inn of former
lines, when the roads were mud and land
journeys were performed in stage coaches,
was resting place, over which the hard
ships of the journey threw a halo Of comfort
by comparison. When the traveller had been
jostled all day or all night in a coach which
constantly sank hub deep in the ruts, passing
over perhaps twenty miles in as much time
as would now be required to go five or six
hundred, he was glad to rest and forget his
discomfort in his inn.
Fancy the Londoners in 1850 going from
London to Birmingham. The distance is l16
miles, and the time required to make the
Journey three days. The Importance of the
English inn Of the period is vouched for
from tho fact that it was the starting point
for the coach. In the early morning the pas
sengers who were "booked" met at the inn
The insiders pass over the old fashioned
rickety steps to the seats within while tue
outsiders climb to the top The guard gives
a blast on his horn and away goes the coach
But if there is any speed at first it is likely
soon to give place to slow welS All day
the traveller is jerked and jostled while the
stage is in the ruts, and jostled and jolted
when carts and stage wagons, gigs, tilburys
and all manner of vehicles which traverse
the abonlinable road are passed, and 1t is
necessary, perhaps, for both to turn aside in
order to get by over the narrow way. One
such days travel would beget more discom-
fort than a trip from New York to San
Francisco today.
At night the coach draws up before the
inn. Mine host, with portly mien and ruddy
English cheeks, comes out to welcome his
guests. Sore in every muscle they enter the
bar, far different place from that which is
called barroom today. A cheerful fire of
logs blazes on hearth under a mammoth
chimney. If it doesn't blaze high enough
some one kicks it with the heel Of a heavy
cowhide boot Then the sparks fly merrily
up the chimney and the flames cast a bright
light on the polished brass of the bar, illu-

minating the pretty face Of the bar maid
who stands behind The traveller takes a
bottom Of brandy or a fagon of old Eng
ish ale with which to stiifen up after his
journey. There is an odor of cooking, as de-
Hghtful to the tired and hungry stage coach
traveller as it would be disagreeable today to
one who has idled away an afternoon with a
novel in parlor car. Then comes the sup
per, a supper which would doubtless suffice
to feed two ordinary travellers of the present
day. This over the men congregate in the
tap room to drink and to smoke their long
clay pipes.
On many routes the stages would lie up
over night. II SO the traveller would he
shown to . room, with great hangings on the
bedstead, and q valance all around, boot
jack handy, and innumerable contrivances
now passed out Of date. In the morning
"boots" would call him and he would GO
down to O breakfast Of hot tea, fresh eggs,
and butter and toast, and cream, and cold
beef, Of which he would partaks plentifully
to brace him for the journey during the day.
The American hotel of colonial times was
much like the English inn. The American
hotel Of the early part of this century is still
remembered by many people who are grow
ing old AS late as 1915 the office in Ameri
can hotels was with the bar, and the whole
was not called the Office, but 1.-The bar" But
the country hotels were then, as now, sorry
abodes. They were frame barnhke buildings
with no beauty of shape, trough before the
door for watering the horses, and great
sign on a tall post, swinging with a grating
noise on hinges, and these words incribed
upon it:
