charges by the week and month will
be as follows: To those who take reg
ular meals the rate will be $3.50 per
week or $500 per month: to those who
desire the privilege of ordering any

Ncddo is going to introduce another
feature here which promises to meet
with great favor and become very
popular. 1t is the Merchants lunch"

Right here it might be we'll to say
that Neddo has been in the hotel and
restaurant business for over twenty
years, and that he comes to Norfolk
from Chattanooga (where he has been
conducting for the past ten years one
of the finest restaurants in that city,
with the reputation OF being a caterer
of the highest grade.
With this fact in mind. 1t is easily
seen why he is going to make a spe-
cialty of catering to outside events
such as teas. receptions. weddings
germans. and other social affairs where
refreshments are a feature. Neddo
says he knows Just what is needed in
these matters and that he can attend
to them in n thoroughly first-class and
up-to-date manner. 1t

sitting room and two dormitories.
These dormitories have every convent
ence of the toilet. even to a shower
bath of hot and cold water. There are
cots and n quiet and airy place for
them to sleep. This service is subject
to the exigencies of railway travel.
They are likely to arrive here at all
hours of the night, hence 1t is a great
convenience to have comfortable
sleeping place and bath ready at all
times. day or night. for their use.
THE SECOND FLOOR.
On the second floor there is same
marble corridors and mosaic floors
There is no wood anywhere EXCEPT the
heavy oak doors and the frames in
which they are set. The veins Of the
marble meet and match so that there
are many pretty designs in the natu-
raj shadings of the stone. The marble
is refined by base and piiasters of
faience. There is new kind of material
made at South Amboy, N. j., of clay.
1t is burned twice SO as to assume a
vitrified color, blended, that makes II
very serviceable in the mechanical and
decorative scheme of such a building
This shows to peculiar advantage in
the cortile which admits the light from
above in the postofllce, and which. With
its columns on four sides and faience
ornaments about the balustrade is the
architectural and artistic feature of
the building.
THE COURT ROOM.

desirable to guard the roads In advance. There
might well be provisions inserted in the bills for
the construction of the roads prohibiting the
building of trolley lines upon them. That would
not be to exclude trolley lines from the country
altogether. These can be built on other roads
than those which are thus improved Let the
trolley people grade and improve roads for them
selves at their own expense if they want them

outrage TO divert it to railroad uses.
In course of time Westchester County Will
probably be covered with a network of electric
roads, as indeed all suburban regions will be.
1t will also. let us hope be covered with sun
closer network of fine macadamized roads for
the use of horses and automobile vehicles ana
bicycles, and these latter should be forever kept
free from the encumbrance of the trolleys. Each
system will serve its own good purpose. and
each should be restricted to its own purpose.
There is league for promoting the building of
good roads which has done a valuable work.
Whether or not league is needed for the pur-
pose. there is as valuable and as essential a
work to be done for the protection and preserva-
ton of the good roads after they have been
built

happily, both the independents and the organi-
cation politicians show more of desire to
unite than TO have their own particular way
Nevertheless the actual cementng of that union
is difficult and delicate operation. giving rise
to any number of opportunities for suspicion,
misunderstanding and friction. The best inten-
toned movements may sometimes be carried
away by ipdiscreet zeal. Therefore it would be
we'll next summer II a committee could be
formed whom all would respect whose decision

putting itself before the people as mere fac

sideration. Such committee might be sort

MR. KRUEGERs DETERMINATION

The theory that Mr. KRUGER is visiting Eu-
rope to seek a compromise with Great Britain
must now be laid aside. The Boer leaders own
words dismiss it. There is in his speech at
Marseies not word nor an accent of compro-
mise or of Cancellation. Defeat and exile have
not softened but have hardened his heart
against the conquering Briton. He speaks not
of an honora bic peace, but of resistance to the
bitter end. He will be satisfied with nothing
but independence. and he declares that if the
Beers do not gain that it will be because they
have all been exterminated. Such a declara-
ton has an heroic sound. even when uttered
some thousands of miles from the seat Of war.
That it will amount TO more than sound is
seriously to be doubted
For. as our London correspondent reminded us
yesterday the conqueTing Briton is also harden
ing his heart So strong is popular sentiment in
favor of holding with a firm hand the fruits Of
the war that the Ministry despite its recent great
victory at the polls would be instantly swept
out of existence If II made single concession to
the Beers. The memory Of years of vexation
and disturbance, the thought Of the losses of
the last year. of the S5O0.000,0OO war debt and
of the price paid to Germany in China, and the
desire to balance and close the account once and
for all time, all mpel Great Britain with ire
sistible force to keep her flag planted at Bloem-
fontein and Pretoria, no matter what may be
said or done against it.
Thus one resolution is pitted against another
Between the two there is a striking contrast In
the material strength with which they are
backed. There is also this important differ
ence-that while the British determination is
practically unanimous in Great Britain and in
South Africa and all through the Empire Mr..
Krtigers is probably not shared by all or by
even a majority of the Beers. Despite the
brave words at Marsees. there is little reason
for thinking that all the Beers are resolved 10
have nothing short of independence or death.
There is. on the contrary, credible assurance
that large proportion of them will accept the
result of the war and make the best of it. They
will not abe extermnated TO the last man."
