In the quiet and intensely hot interiors

no man need feel strange here. He may
assure himself that there are men of his
kind present. If, however, he is mistaken
and there are no men OF his kind in Hot
Springs, he can conclude that he is a nat
ural phenomenon and doomed to the Curl
osity of all people.
In Broadway perhaps people would run
after Turk to stare at his large extrava-
CANT trousers. Here il is doubtful if he
would excite them at all. They would ex-
pect a Turk; they would comprehend that
there were Turks and why there were
Turks; they would accept the Turk with a
mere raise of the eyebrows. THIS street
thoroughly understands geography, and
its experience of men is great. The in
structors have been New York swells,
Texas cattlemen, Denver mining kings,
Chicago business men, and commercial
travellers from the universe. This pro-
found education has destroyed its Curl
osity and created a sort of wide SYM
pathy, not tender, but tolerant.
1t is this absence of localism and the
Digotry of classes which imparts to the
entire town a peculiarly. Interesting flavor.
There has been too general a contribution
TO admit two identical patterns. They
were all different. And from these the
town and the people were builded. Some
of the hotels are enormous and like
palaces. Some are like farm houses.
Some are as small and plain as pine
shanties. This superior education has
impress sed upon the town the fact that
pocketbooks differentiate as do the dis
tances to stars.
The bath houses for the most part stand
in one row. They are close together and
resemble mansions. They seem to be the
abodes of peculiarly subdued and home
loving millionaires. The medicinal water
is distributed under the supervision of the
United States government, which in fact
has reserved all the land save that valley
in which the town lies. The water is first
collected from all the springs into prin-
cipal reservoir. From thence it is again
pumped through pipes to the bath house.
The government itself operates a free

Weather than most of the sees in the
mother communion, it is likely that it's
growth will in time be signalized in the
manner desired by the excessively high
church. As for the opposition of Bishop
Potter and his encourage, that will hardly
count, since the worthy churchman will
probably be dead by the time the great
cathedral is ready for conservation, and
what he may think will nave no great
hearing or consideration then.
The archiepiscopal episode, as it has
begun TO be called, marks the acute stage
of that interecine war in the Episcopal
church in tho metropolis over the ques-
ton of sacerdotalsm which has brought
bishops and clergy into more than one I'M
pleasant conference. There is no deny
ing that the high churchmen have the
most at commandfroma numerical and PEE
cuniary point of view, and the bishop him
self is known to have uttered a fear that
they are inclined to go rather far. Only the
immense personal influence of Bishop
Potter and the known excellence of his
administration have succeeded in steming
the tide of ritualism. The moro radical
members of the flock are very much dis
pleased with the bishop, and through their
efforts resolution was passed at a re-
cent diocesan conference referring this
whole matter to the general convocation
next autumn. The scene of hostilities is
thus transferred TO an impartial body and
the Episcopnlians of New York are
already hard at work in efforts to secure
an ascendency in this sanctified body.
As for the low church body, they are al
luding TO their antagonists as irreverent
and as playing the parts of saints with
barrels whose money is their only claim
to consideration. The opposition, how
ever, applies the term "saintly devil" TO
the leader of the low churchmen. and
altogether the ecclesiastical situation is
emblttered.

over the rocks.
And then at last, at the railway station,
comes that incoherent mass of stage drv-
ers and baggagemen which badges all re-
sorts, roaring and gestulating. as unintel-
liglbe always as a row of Homeric eX-
perts, while behind them on the sky are
oainted the calm turrets of the innumer-
nole hot els and, still further back, the
green ridges and peaks of the hills. Not
all travellers venture to storm that typical
array of hackmen; some make a sinking
detour and, coming out suddenly from be-
hind the station, sail away with an air
half relief, half guilt. At any rate. the
stranger must circumnavigate these howl
ing dervishes before he can gain his first
glance of the vivid yellow sunlight, the
green groves and the buildings of the
springs.
When a man decides that he has seen
the whole of the town he has only seen
half of it. The other section is behind a
great hill that with imperial insolence
projects into the valley. The main street
was once the bed of a mountain stream.
il winds persistently around the base of
this hill until it succeeds in joining the
two sections. The dispossessed river now
flows through tunnel. Electric cars with
whirring and changing notes bowl along
with modern Indifference upon this grave
of torrent of the hills.
The motive of this main street is purely
cosmopolitan. 1t undoubtedly typifies
the United States better than does any
existing thoroughfare, for it resembles
the North aud the South, the East and the
West. For a moment a row of little wooden
stores will look exactly like a portion of a
small prairie village, but, later, one is con-
ironted by group of austere business
blocks that are completely eastern in ex-
preston. The street is bright at times
with gaudy gypsy coloring; it is gray in
places with dull and Puritanical hues. 1t

In the saloon a man was leaning agains;

stranger entered, this man said to the
bartender: I'm shake you for the

When the traveller for the hat firm in
Ogallala. Neb., had won $50 from the man
with ruffied whiskers, the latter said 4:
Excuse me for a moment, please. You
wait here for me, please. You're a win

As the man vanished, the traveller for
the hat firm in Ogallala, Neb., turned to
the youthful stranger with the blonde and
innocent hair, in an outburst of gleeful
victory. "Well, that was easy" he cried
ecstatically. Fifty dollars in bout four

The Biggest Boy Yet,

The tallest man in the world at the
present time is now to be seen in the Pas
sage Panopticum in Berlin. He is the
Arabian Hassan Ali, who has grown to
the enormous height of nine feet two
inches, although he is only 16 years old.
1t is believed that he will continue to
grow for several years. Hassan Ali was
born near the Sinah Ammons oasis IN
Egypt. He has the Arabian cast of
features, but does not possess the usual
grace, it is needless to say, of his people.
