It Does Not Como Up to Our American
Idees of Comfort
We exaggerate in our minds the luz
ury OF life on the continent. No hotel
there equals any OF the frst-class ho-
tells in our great cities. The first thing
to disappoint US Is the lift-what we
deliberately call the. elevator. It is q
poor piece Of machinery abroad, always
stopping and always out Of order, says
Harper's Bazaar. In the best hotel in
Paris, the Continental, one gets lux
ury. comfort and even splendor. but
never ones cards or notes. There il
a fatal gulf for these One Is a num-
Der, not an individuality. The table is.
however, very luxurious. It is a clean
and weil-ordered caravansary. As for
the comfort OF warmth In winter. they
do not know the meaning OF the word.
We are justly accused Of exaggerating
the heat OF our rooms in America; the
furnace Is denounced; but after freez-
ing to death in Paris, one Of the cold
est OF cities, very far north, cursed
with an abominable winter climate,
one returns willingly to the heated
rooms CT America. We exaggerate the
excellence Of the French bed. There
is no such thing in France as that COM
Portable. broad. low thing which we
call a French bed. A high, hard, mar
row shelf Is the apology for It. We ex-
aggerate our comforts by having gas
in our sleeping-rooms, and hot and
cold water In our stationary washbowl5
and bathrooms. They never exagger-
ate comfort In France. You have as
many candles as you will pay for. and
no bath. unless you order 1t, when men
laboriously bring you tub filled with
hot and cold water, and take It away
after you have bathed. We exasgerate
very much the supposed good living in
France. To go to hotel in Paris to
live we must expect out Of the season
very little good food, very little that
Is sustaining and nourishing. 1t Is

RIOT IN THE COAL REGION
sHERiFFs POSSE REPULsEs THE.

A Man and Little Girl Killed and Sew
eral wounded-Gov. Stone Calls Out
the Militia

PHILADELPHIA, (Pa.), September
2.-The tragedy that has been looked
for since the coal-workers strike War
begun came suddenly at Shenandoah
this afternoon. A posse hurriedly gath
cred by Sheriff TOole of SchuykilEi
forced to fire into mob that was
threatening workmen on their way
home under escort. A man and a little
girl were instantly killed, and several.
others fell, more or less wounded.
Sheriff Toole lost no time in calling Ola
the National Guard General to send
troops to aid him. After consultations
the authorities decided to send troops
to the turbulent region tonight. Shen-
andoah's trouble was precipitated by
the closing of six colleries there this
morning through the efforts of strike
leaders. More will close tomorrow 49,
a voluntary act, it is said, on the part
of the Reading Companw. This is done
at the request of Sheriff Toole, who
hopes in this manner to avoid further
rioting. The outlook at midnight how
ever, is dubious, as the foreigners are in
an ugly mood after the days happen
ings.
Elsewhere the situation is quiet, but.
people are looking for an outbreak ira
the Hazleton district, and armed sher--
in's deputies are much in evidence there
The Reading Company has about dis
continued the sale of coal for future
delivery, and tonights rioting almost
certainly means the shutting off of COAX
handling all over the anthracite field,
temporarily at least.

Three regiments of infantry, a battery

at midnight by Governor Stone to assist

CATHOLIC BURY1NG GROUND.
Made for Part in the New
Cemetery.

So far as the Catholics are concerned
no attempt will be made to resist the
law stopping burials within certain linn
it's of Honolulu. Bishop GulsJan said
this morning that the location Of a new
burying ground for the people of That
church would depend largely upon the
action that the government would take.
Some time ago he applied to the gov
eminent asking that a portion of the
new cemetery be assigned to the CatlIn-
lies. No answer to that application
has as yet been received.
I'VE will take no action" said the
bishop, until after the government
decides were IT intends to Ioca:e the
new cemetery. At present IL wouli be
unwise for us to secure any new land IN
the Eva side of the city because the
government might decide to go to Dia-
mond Head. The proposed sites for the
new cemetery are very different in chas
racter for at Diamond Head there is
now practically no means by which bu-
rails could be held there, without great
expense while in the Eva direction the
grove is along the railroad.
ut Is not right to make the expenses
any more heavy than possible on the
people and ] see no reason why the
government should not provide a pub
lie cemetery. 1t pays for the education
OF the children and why should IL not
pay for the burial of their bodies? What
action the church takes, will depend
upon the governments decision. There
is no more room in our cemetery on
King street so the closing of that place
makes but little difference to u.s."
