Another New York Palace Hotel.

About Aug. VIII occur the opening Of
the Albemarle hotel, Twenty-fourth street
and Broadway, facing that most beautiful
of small parks, Madison square This is
justly considered the finest location in the
metropolis. 1t is the very heart of the
great city. The principal theaters. shops
and public places are within short walk
ing distance. The Broadway cable road,
which transfers free TO nearly all cross
town roads, and itself runs from end to
end of the city. passes the door, Twenty
third street, the shopping center, is one
block away.
While the Albemarle is one of the older
hotels and was prime favorite as such,
the improvements that have been made in
it during the past two years have so
changed it that it's oldest patrons would
hardly recognize the house. Another story
has been added, and in its mail, telegraph
and call systems several ingenious i'm
provements have been introduced, so that
the whole is remarkably complete and con-
venient
The interior fittings and decorations are
extremely beautiful and effective-nothing
that money can buy or taste and science
suggest being wanted for the comfort, lux
ury and safety of the guests.
Particular attention has been paid to the
plumbing, which is the most approved san
itary system.
And think of hardwood floors and rugs
in a hotel What cleanliness they suE-
gest! Probably no other hotel anywhere
possesses this feature.
Families may have suites of from two
to nine rooms. which will comprise such
features as are to be found in a flrst-class
private residence, apportioned according
to the size of the family. For bachelors
and transient guests peculiarly comforta-
BILE and attractive single rooms of various
sizes, with and without baths, are pro-
vded.
The cafe, restaurant. reading and re-
ception rooms are probably more perfect
for their purpose than any similar rooms
to be found elsewhere in the entire world
The cuisine will be the best the market
affords; nothing more can be said
Every precaution of construction and
arrangement to prevent fire has been
taken.
