Years war didn't affect Il particularly,
1t was SO strongly fortified that it wasn't
considered wise to trouble it. These
Notifications are now converted into
promenades. Thea the Council and tn,
citizens began to have trouble with eact
other and Hamburg became stagnan..
1t was not until the end of that last cen.
fury that she began to make any
progress again 1t was then that direct
communication, with America wa.
established, and to this day that is the
handspring OF her commercial impor-
lance.
In 1910 Hamburg was annexed to the
French Empire. She rebelled in 1918,
and then it was that Marshall Davoust
wrecked vengeance upon those to whom
the sarcophagus is erected in the ceme-
terry. After the peace of Vienna Ham
burg got along comfortably until 1912,
when the city was almost destroyed by
fire. It recovered from that and grew
apace. But its real "boom," as they
say in this country, began with the for.
nation of the empire in 1870. Since
that time the bulk of the foreign com.
mercs of Germany has passed through
Hamburg. Its population has increased
almost with the rapidity of the cities OF
the West, aud its increase in wealth has
been even greater. In 1856 its popula-
ton was about three hundred thousand.
According to the German census last
year, Hamburg had o population OF
$40, 900. This does not include num-

Der of such thing hap pening before.
The city is so old that no one knows
when it began to be. But it is certain
that as early as 81 the big and strong
Charlemagne founded castle at Ham
burg, to which he soon added church,
presided over by bishop. whose bust
ness it was to propagate Christianity in
those northern regions.
The Counts of Holstein, within whose
jurisdiction Hamburg was situated, par
ticularly Adolph III. and w., became
great benefactors of the town and Sc
cured for its privileges and i'm munities
which formed the foundation of its sub
sequent independence.
Hamburg joined the Hauseatic League
at an early period and played prom
inent part in its contest with the Dapish
kings in the thirteenth and fourteenth
centuries. The city was also honorably
distinguished in the good work OF
sweeping the sea of pirates. Even in those
early days it began to have importance
as CONNER cial point. The discovery
of America and the sea route to India
had its effect upon Hamburg, but at
that time it did not make much of q
showing with England. and Holland.
In 1929 the citizens adopted the Re
formed faith and established q free
political constitution. The Thirty

steamers OF the Hamburg line. One of
the Zig twin-screws might make its way
up to the city, but there would be no
certainty when it would be able to get
out again. So now the twin-screw
steamers land at Cuxhaven, OIL the North
Sea, which is three hours 1lde by rail
from Hamburg.
There are two rivers about Hamburg.
They are small, but they add much to
the attraction of the city. They are the
Alster and the Billie, The former flowing
from the north, forms large basin out
side the town and smaller one within it,
called the Aussen-Alster and the Bin
nen-Alster respectively 1t is about the
Alsters, which would be called lakes or
ponds in this country, that the fine
hotels, the fine houses and the fine shops
are found. They are beautifully located
1t is the fashionable part of the city.
The little rivers, the Alster and the
Billie, are discharged by locks into the
canals, which are called feetes. These
canals make a network of the lower part
of the city. They run off from the Elbe.
There are many of them and ON all
merchandise is transported. There is no
trucking in Hamburg to talk about. The
cargoes of vessels and other m erchandise
is placed on large, aat-bottomed boats,
which are poled about the canals in q

WOMEN AND DRESS L1rsnArunE.

Men should comprehend, says Mrs.
Fenwicls Miller, that women read de-
scriptions of dress just as men read the
city article--not for fun, but for business
purposes. No woman finds it particu-
larly amusing to read about styles aud
stuffs, but it is intensely interesting be-
cause it is imperativcly necessary when
she is going to have new frock or bon
net herself. john Stuart Mill remarked
that the amount of observation and re-
Election that q lady had to bestow on
having her own and her childrcn's cos
tune all that it should be might suffice,
if otherwise applied, to produce really
great results. This is quite true; and,
sad enough it is, when you look ut the
matter from the serious standpoint, that
we should have to waste our time SO
utterly. But, from the practical, worldly
point OF view, to consider costumes is by
no means waste of time. Until we wear
UNIFORM, every woman who wants TO
hold her own socially (aud to do this is the
muin duty for the average woman) must
give thought to make her various cos
tunes suit her person, agree with her
PURSE and march with the fashion. For
these ends, descriptions of dresses and
hints on styles are eagerly read by
women.-New York Commercial Adyer-
tiser.

mounting and descending. In neither
case must tho head procede the feet.
The ducking motion is at all times to
DO avoided. To put the head out of a
carnage first and then double up the
body to follow, shows significant want
of familiarity with the vehicle OF luxury.
Retain sitting position till one foot,
preferably the left, is on the stop, then
with the other step easily down. This
is simple aud natural liz victoria or
brougham; more difficult in higher
hung cart or road-wagou. TO mount
coach or drag is worse than either. A
woman should touch the vehicle with
ono hand only, while the other rests on
the shoulder of tho groom or gentleman
who is assisting her. Aud the woman
who is accorded the highest privilege of
tho bCx-seat should be careful of hor
ribbons and parasol. There should be
no loose ends of the one, and the second

driver, who, managing his four-in hand i,
can be greatly annoyed by jostlod hat
from parasol-rib or the slap from II
flying ribbon across the eyes ut n critical
moment. A Frenchwoman, when act
ing the hostess in drive, is very par
ticulnr to enter the carriage first, seating
herself so that her guest is mt her right
hand, never failing to indicate by n
phrase, as "At my right, madame"
that this is the place or honor. The OK
ccption, of course, is when tho hostess
is also driver. -Arsonuut.

Der of its suburb, like Altoona. Altoona
has 200, 900 people. Hamburg is there
fore about the same size as Glasgow and
Liverpool.
Until four or five years ago, Hamburg
was free city. That is, it was one of
the States of the German Federation,
and included small tract of contiguous
territory. Bismarck made an effort to in
corporate it into Prussia, and finally sue
ceeded in overcoming the opposition of
the people, who jealousy guarded their
freedom aud independence.
One Of the chief factors in Hamburg's
development has been the Hamburg
American Steamship Company. 1t has
built up tremendous trade aud an en-
ormous emigrant traffic. Many railroads
run into Hamburg from the interior, aud
bring thousands Of emigrauts. 1t has be-
come the chief embarking point for
emigrants from Russia and Poland. It
was some of the Russia emigrants who
are supposed to have brought the disease
into Hamburg. Between thirty and
forty thousand emigrants leave Hamburg
for America every day.

and handsome private dwellings. These
quays are called the Alte, the Neue
Jungsernsteig and the Alsterdamm. The
fourth side, towards the Aussen-Alster,
is laid out in promenades connected by
the Lombardsbruche. The water is
covered with launches and rowboats on
summer evenings, and the swans have
an uncomfortable time amid the pleasure
seekers.
The banks are the favorite promenade
of the city. Adjoining the Alte Jung
fersteig on the southeast are the Alster
Arcades, where are found the fashion
able shops. The ramparts near Lom-
barsbruche overlook the Binneu- Alster,
which is three or four times as large as
the other basin. The banks are studded
with villas.
The houses of the rich people are
modern and attractive. The houses OF
the poor have the appearance of great
age and look rickety. The poorer quar-
/ tiers suggest great difficulty in maintaining
good sanitary conditions.
Every person in America who has ever
had anything to do with the royal Ben
gal tiger or the fierce Numidian lion
knows that Hamburg is the worlds great
animal market. Every wild animal or
bird or beast or reptile that is placed
Upon exhibition is bought through the
dealers of Hamburg. 1t naturally fol-
lows that the zoologlcol gardens OF Ham
burg are the finest to be found anywhere.
They arc over in the northwestern part
of the city.
There is sarcophagus in one of the
cemeteries commemorative the death of
113S citizens of Hamburg who, having
been banishcd by Marshal Davoust, to-
gether with many thousands of their fell
low-citizens, during the winter of 1878
Il, fell victims to grief, starvation and
disease.
The streets of Hamburg are we'll
paved, and it strikes the visitor from
New York as being particularly Clearly
city. In fact, the streets seem most
delightful contrast to Broadway. There
is never any dust in the city. This is
accounted for by the fact that it rains in
Hamburg nearly oil the time. The Of
fetal records show that rain falls $50
days in the year. Sometimes it sprinllles
for only few minutes and then 1T pours
for days aud days. During the first
week in August last four days passed

Now, l was just as willing to turn off an

Still further east are the Ober hafen
ard other harbors for river craft and
fnclly on the other side of the Elbe, on
the small Grassbrook are large Holz
hafen, or wood harbors, for the storage
of timber. Between the Brookthor hafeu
and the Ober hafen, to the south, is the
large Vcnlo station of the Paris line.
Near 1t are extensive warehouse and

there it is now raging with such fury.

Why there should DO fashions in
mourning is mystery. Every woman
in mourning looks exactly like every
other woman in the same condition of
servitude to her veil aud her over
weighted gown. At least, half mourn
ing is half better than whole mourning.

morning glories had been in their own

reproduce the glorics of the morning

when there shall be no mourning.

the Alster Basin by the people of Ham

When Mr. Porter of the eleventh
census gets around to it he may be
able TO show that the capital invested
in commercial enterprises in this
country is not far from $50, 900, 0OO,.
600. In 1sS0it was something oveI
$40, 900, 100000. It has been esti.
mated that Mr.. Porter's figures would
show the present amount to be $780,.
600, 600, 900, but some estimates indi.
cate that it will be $40, 900, 600, O0c
above these figures. England can
show nothing like it. This is an
enormous increase in ten years and
shows the earning power of the
money which is invested in business
enterprises in the United States.

Hamburg great. Next to London aud
Liverpool it is the greatest commercial
place of Europe, and with New York
it is one of the four great seaports of tine
world. Its imports amount to more than
a billion dollars annually. Nine .thous-
and vessels visit it every year. From it
are sent thousand upon thousands of
emlgrants to America.
Hamburg lies on the Lower Elbe. 1t
is seventy miles from the North Sen and
III miles from Berlin, on the Upper
Elbe. AT Hamburg the Elbe is broad
and deep. The barbor is magnificent.
There can be found more vessels than
are seen in New York Harbor.
The harbor, until death placed its hand
upon the people, presents always busy
and picturesque scene. The quays
extend along the right bank OF the
Noreer Elbe from Altoona to the Billwar-
der-Neuendeich, distance of more than
three miles, and accommodate upward of
four hundred sea-going vessels and as
many barges and river craft. The west
end of the quay, opposite st. Paul, is
chiefly occupied by the English golfers
and the steamers OF the Hamburg
American Company. Adjacent is the
Neider-hafen, intended principally tot
the reception of sailing vessels during
the season of floating ice, and connected
with the Elbe with several outlets which
are called Cats. Further east are the
Sandthor-hafen, HOO yards long, and
100 to 14o yards wide, with the Sandthor
quay and the Kaiser quay, and the
GrasbrUok hafcn with the Dahann quay
and the Hubener quay, both suited for
vessels of heavy tonnage. The latter
are used principally for the Atlantic
liners.
