PLANS FOR A WOMAN'S HOTEL,

\ plan is afcot in New York to build
one or more hotels for the exclusive Use
OF seli-supporting women. The proposition
is To organize a corporation to te know.
as the Woman's Hotel Company. with ~
capital of one million dollars, the corpor
alton TO be foImed when 5000 600 is sub
soribed. Then land is to he bought, and
n hotel built 10 hold about a thousand
bjarders Plans for such a hotel have
been drawn, subject To change and sub
scri tion papers circulated. The list Of
subscribers is headed by Mr.. John :.
Kennedy and Mr.. Morris h. Jesup. each
of whom takes 200 shares, worth x20, 900.
The committee on organization includes
MessSs. ii. B. Turner, q. ;. Fairchild,
c. +. Cox, j. Kennedy Iod and Charles
ID. Kellogg, the aforementioned gentle
man beiug the acting secretary oil the
proposed company, with offices in the
United Charities building.
peopls who know the seIf-suprorting
omen of New York sy hat such u
hotei as is planned is urgei tly needed and
would be sure Of patronage Various
authcr submit that there are about
5000 art students In town every year, 2U00
students of music, 2O0O trained nurses
and medical students and thousands OF
journalists, stenosraphers, physicians
md other business and professional
women. 1t is estimated that there gre
40 600 sslf-supportine women in this city
who could afford To live Mt such "a hotel
as is planned. The minimum cost of
board and lodging in it would be six
dollars q week 1t Is computed that a
hotel containing s25 rentabis rooms
(besides lodgings for its house stafr)
would pay, when full, gross income
from all sources Of s435, 456. It's estimated
expenses would be s253, O5a, which gives
an apparent surplus OF SlS2 i03. These
exper SO estimates, which have been veri-
fed by five widely known and successful
hotel managers, seem tn show that the
hCtel would pay, though whatever the
profits, share sholders would not receive
more than five per cent interest on their
inve stment.
The project Is interesting, and. in view
of the success of the Mills Hotel, IL will
not be surprising il IL is really tried. OF
course, the scheme projected calls for
scale of entertainment much superior to
what the Mills attempts.
One thing about which subscribers to
such scheme would seem likely to want
inform alton Is rules. by what regula-
tions are the boarders Ia this hotel to be
governed and will they be subject to
restrictions which other hotels do no
find necessary? On this point the pre-
iimiaary prospectus does not give infor.

Of his constituency will not vote TO au-

VINO will pretend to believe that he tem-
PER of the psople is not to finish the State
House IN accordance with the original
plans to top Capitol Hin with one
of the finest architectural ; monuments
that tho country possesses an honor to
the Stateand to its people:
1t would be the height of folly TO do
anything else with the State Capitol but
complete IL to the last bit of marble. But
such folly is not 20 be presumed The
State Capitol will, Of COURSE be com
pIeted. Nobody would pretend to think
otherwise. The only thing that is pos
sibie is that its finishing may be delayed
The Assembl has IL in its power to delay
the work but the exercise of such IA power
plainly would he contrary To thoI public
interests and TO public economy not so
foolish as the impossible folly of abandon
ing the work half done, but foolish
enough and costly. The roofing i'm
proposition means a cost Of at least 800,
0O9, according to the estimates and It
means. also, only makeshift until the
work of finishing is some day, nnder-
taken as it surely will be, when that 500,
600 will be deliberately thrown away,
and cast into the Junk heap.
The single duty of the Assembly today
Is to permit the bond proposition to go TO
the people 81 the earliest possible moment.
That is, for the April election. This is no
time TO quarrel a bout tho work that has
been begun and dops. That work now
stands above ground, it's own uslincation
it is Of course, barely possible that the
people will refuse 10 spend my more
money on the new State House But IL
IL to be trusted that that Is not at all
likely. The people appreciate the splendid
structure and whatever doubts there may
have been in the past about it's necessity
they want TO soc the grand work finished
Let the Assembly present the matter to
the people and learn their wishes in the
matter. Then, and not till then. will il
be time for any discussion, If anything
else proves to be necessary except to set to
work TO the finish
Present the question to the people, gen
tlemen OF the Assembly. The response
bility lies with the people.

YOUNG EYES IN SCHOOL.
BIackboards aud Wall Painting Affect
Them.

An effort is being made in the public
schools Of this city to have care Tor the
eyes of the children, but those Interested
ara hampered by want Of money to carry
on the work. For 10 years or more SUIT
Jasper has been interested in looking
after tho eyes OF the public school chill
oren, not merely so far as diseases OF the
eve are concerned, but also as to refrac-
tion, plain and simple lie says that tine
day is surely coming when the eyes OF
each individu,l pupil Will b examined by
a specialist, ana these that are not normal
will he properly cared Tor.
"Such "a reform, he said. "oannot be
effected in day or year. lt takes both
time and money, but II will come. y
Last june the President OF the board of
education appointed commission OF
threo experts among tho ooulists of the
city to report to the board its opinion
with reference to the color most desirable
for use in the new schoIl buildings AMI
in Others when the tiBts are changed. At
the same time the boarc. expressed Yisn
that corps of experts might be appointed
and paid by the board of health, whose
duty should be co examine the children of
the putio schools with refererc1 10 defec-
tive sight and hearing, defective breathing
and any abnormalor detective physical
condition.
Toward the last of October Dr. Charles
Stedman Bull, DR.. Henry ID. Noyes and
IN ,,,ni sin pa.
ported that they had visited large mum
Der Of schools. They suggested that it
was not advisable to place black boards on
the wall directly opposite tho windows
In any rlass room, as was done in several
buildings. They found that the black
boards were correctly placed in most
buildings, 30 that tine light was not re-
ilected in the eyes of the pupils. They
objected To painting the wall space be-
tween the sur base and chair rail dark
maroon, as that made a too marked con-
trast with the side walls They advised
the use of dark yellow or light brown
without any admixture of red. Gn1 sug-
gosted light buif tints for ceiling and. side
walls as satisfactory to eyes of teachers
aud pupils. Tness uuihoriti,s reported
that the quantity CT hight ia a room Was
greatly influenced 10y tho color If the
walls. and that the RAJ end of the spec
truin should never bs used in decorating
schoolrooms. as much Hight was lost in
the employment OF certain colors. Lighter
and more delicate shades, such as yellow
or gray. were suggested as the best. The
quantity of light In room also varied
greatly, and ths color chosen should lie
estim ated for the least lavorntlo 10 condi-
tons The commission advised the choice
OF light-colorsd woods for all school fur
ni,ure and the woodwork Of tho build
