MORBID CURIOSITY.
There Were Many Instances of 1t at
the Hotel Windsor Fire In
New York.

Some of the many instances recorded
at the scenes at and after the great
Hotel Windsor fire bear directly upon
subject which has long interested stu
dents of the human brain. The New
York police department. had much to
contend with during those awful three
days; yet of allathe troubles reported,
it was neither thieves nor mobs, but
morbidly curious women who made
their lives bore. No one has ever sat-
isfactorily explained why the weaker
sex should lean to the gloomy; yet they
do, as the popularity of such novelists
as Coreli will testify. The news of the
fire had scarcely reached the suburbs,
and many of the engines had not yet
reached the scene, declares Broad
way officer, when hundreds of women,
of all ages, classes. and conditions,
fastened to the spot. They left the line
of the parade for miles along to take in
such a sight as a holocaust of perhaps
400 souls. Nothing short of actual force
could keep them back; the falling walls
themselves seemed ito, have no terror
The next day itswas:even worse, as all
were bent upon seeing the mutilated
bodies. They would stand for hours,
one, two and three squares away, to see
a plain dead box go by on a wagon.
They endeavored to evade the police by
every art known to their kind, and
when an officers back was, turned
slipped by with the stealth of hardened
criminals. One well-dressed woman,
hearing that stump. or an arm, or
some such thing, had been unearthed,
fairly climbed the shoulders of the
crowd to see it pass. Another, an old
German woman, pushed her way
through the struggling mob and actual
" reached the box, into which she
stared with fascinating eyes. Yet the
majority Of them would undoubtedly
faint at the sight of a finger cut.-Cin-
