NEW YORK AQUARIUM
AN INTERESTING EXHIBITION IN OLD
CASTLE GARDEN.

Finny Beauties Disport Themselves where
Jenny Lind Sang and Where Millions
Of Immigrants First Set Foot on the
American Shore.
After four years OF experimenting New
York's aquarium is all ready for the pub
fio and from now on will take Its place as
] one of the things which the visitor to the
metropolis will feel that IL is absolutely
necessary to see. New Yorkers are well
repaid for the time and money that have
been spent on this public enterprise, for
they now have an aquarium which Is one
Of the finest to be found anywhere In the
world, and which, as its collections are en-
riched from year TO year, will undoubtedly
take first place before a decade has passed.
On the very tip end of the southerly part
Of Manhattan Island the aquarium is To-
Gated, and It's home is In one of the Oldest
and most historic buildings In the big city.
1t Is housed within the walls of what was
once known as Castle Garden, q structure
whose varied fortunes are intimately con-
nected with the history Of New York for
the past century.
When the circular walls of Castle Garden
were raised in 1907, they were built on
foundations which were sunk in the waters
of the upper bay 800 yards from the shore.
The government designed 1t for fort, and
IL was first called Castle Clilson. In 1929
the necessity which had hastened the build
Ing Of Castle Clinton had passed, and It
was of no further use as a fortress, so It
was ceded TO the city. Then the space be-
tween the shore and the island was filled
In, and the land thus made was added to
Battery park.
1t was In 1894 that the structure came
to be known rs Castle Garden. 1t was
leased to private individuals, who trans
formed the interior of the old fortress into
an elaborate beer garden and concert hall
After awhile 1t became known as play.
house, and later was the earliest home of
grand opera in this country. 1t was there
that Jenny Lind first sang and many 9TH
er favorites, now almost forgotten, ap-
peared.
In 1855 the Garden was turned into a
depot for the reception of immigrants, and
during the next 85 years of its existence
was one Of the most celebrated buildings
In America. In 1870 the interior was gut
ted by fire, but the solid stone walls were
not damaged in the least. In 1890 the
Garden was again vacant. For awhile 1t
was occupied by the naval reserve, but in
1899 the city again took charge of the
structure and began the work Of trans
forming 1t into an aquarium. 1t has cost
more than $200,0O to do the work, and
the aquarium is not yet complete, but
enough Of 1t has been finished to make
very interesting exhibition.
The interior Of the old fortress has un-
dergone wonderful change. The bare,
barnlike space has been arranged after the |
Romanesque style, the great dome, 30 feet
In diameter, being supported by double |
row of arches, which rest in turn on mass

A Lesson IN the Near Future.

A moderate estimate is that there
are 100000 unemployed men in the
country This means a loss of $500,
600, 900 a year, at least, in wealth to
the United States. The reason why
there are so many men out of work
is that The process of expansion,
which has been going on for cen
fury has been retarded, and in some
places stopped, by the financial policy
which diminishes or destroys the
profits of the producers.
In the cities of the East the charit-
able are contemplating with dismass
the calls that will be made on Snem
during the coming WHIT. Ihose
who have been unal.'o 70 make Nv
ING il, the coun+.y are tiocking to the

twill cope with the trouble. No
Sharity however wise will remove its
cause. The only remedy is to bring
prosperity again to the farmer. and
he can have no prosperity SO long as
his debts are Increasing and the price
of his products is falling. This les
son Will impress itself upon the cities

GUS campaigns-1s64, 1866 and 1901
but the base and foundation are pol.
ished granite. From the top, 1876 feet
high, one enjoys fine view of the city.
A similar monument is the one on the
summit of the highest hill near Ber-
lin, the Kreugberg, which was erected
Of bronze to thankfully commemorate
deliverance from the Napoleonio re-
gime in 1915.
Among the great men in whose honor
monuments are now erected in Berlin
are Frederick the Great, Frederick Will
liam Ill, the Great Elector, the two
Humboldts, Butcher, Stein, Dennewitz
and many others, and within the next
two years n number of great scientists,
like Helmholtz, Siemens, ETC., will be
similarly honored. Within the past 10
months three or four other large mon
uments have been erected, such as the
symbolical one of Berolina on Alexan-
der Platz, the large Luther monument
on Mollsen Market, and the two of AL
brecht the Bear and Of Margrave
Waldemar near the Muhlendamm.
But of much greater magnitude will
be two large monumental enterprises
now in process of execution. The first
of these is the national monument to
Emperor William l., which is to be UNI
yelled on the centenary of his birth
March %, 1897. This will be, by all
odds, the largest and most expensive of
ell. and all over Germany men of every
station have contributed their mite
towards it, the number of subscribers
aggregating over 100000. 1t is being
placed near the old Schloss or Royal
Castle, and it will show the old hero,
surrounded by symbolical personages,
on horseback. The space covered by,
this monument, with it's foundations
and approaches, would suffice to build
q whole block of houses on. AS to it's
artistic beauty opinions differ greatly.
The grandson of William l., the present
emperor, himself selected the model
from among those submitted to him,
and, as the young emperor is undoubt4
eddy a man of fine taste and artistic in
stincts, it may be that his choice will
pc Endorsed by posterity.
It is likewise the present emperor

ISpectaI Berlin Letter /

| The undermining of Berlin dates,
practically, from 1871, at which time
the city became, in lieu of being the
residence of the Prussian kings for a
part of the year only, the capital of re-
united Germany and of q powerful en-
pire. Since then the process of evolv-
ing a metropolis in the full sense of the
word has been going on uninterrupted.
ly. Vast suburban territory has been
annexed and he who has not seen Ber-
lin for 25 years would not recognize
her, for what he sees to-day is virtually
new city. The whole belt of we'll
built, airy, broad, shaded avenues
around the old town proper is of recent
construction. All those fine, fashiona-
BILE quarters, like the Hansa quarter,
the Moaft, the Bellevue, the Potsdam,
the Thiergarten quarters, are new.
Even the old town is gradually being
replaced and rebuilt. Whole streets,
dingy, narrow, made up of low, shal<y
houses are purchased of the owners by
the city and are reconstructed-spa
cious, magnificent. And every one Of
these municipal enterprises has so far
turned out a paying one, as the demand
for fine business quarters in the heart
of the town is n brisk one, and rents paid
after such undermining are high enough
to reimburse in the total for all the
outlay, even if it runs high into the
millions.
Among the many things which the
Berlin of former days was deficient in,
monuments and public fountains may
be mentioned. Every tourist who visits
Paris and London notices that these
two elements of urban attractiveness--
monuments of great men and women
and large fountains of sculptural and
architectural beauty-play large part
in the charms of those cities as whole.

The study of physicians, the exper

been for years expended in one direc

The result has been a number Of
harmless and in most cases useless
ointments, suppositories and even in

have weighed in the balance of eH

Until two years ago, no such rene

time snppository was placed upon
the market, which has since proven
itself to be the long sought perma
uent cure for this common and dis
tressing trouble; it has rapidly be-
come famous throughout the United
States and Canada, and is now sold
by nearly all druggists under the
name of the Pyramid Pile Cure.
1t is now the best known, because
irs merit and safety have advertised
it wherever used. 1t has been adyer-
tised by word of mouth, from one
sufferer to another; people who had
tried everything else, even submit
ting to painful and dangerous surgi-

finally found that plies may be cured
without pain and without
