list Of parties abiding upon spacious anu
luxurious yachts Glance at the tan hotels anu
apartment buildings with which NewIork is so
bountifully equipped. and you will ind that IN
few previous years in the closing week or sep
tember have there been so numerous a body OF
visitors among us and never before were there
so many stately taverns in the choicest condi-
ton for their entertainment More and more
wear after year New-York becomes city of
majestic hotels In no part of the globe can the
hotels and apartment houses Of this city be
excelled. And the theatres and the restaurants
of the metropolis are in the foremost rank in
comparison with those of Great Britain and the
nations of Europe.
1t is unfortunate. however. in this autumn.
when such throngs come TO town to witness
the yacht contests, that several of the best
known avenues and open spaces are torn up
for the rapid transit subways and for repaving,
and that scores of contractors who are building
huge new structures are allowed TO obstruct
the highways with heaps of building materials.
Few of most attractive drives are not
choked and damned in this manner. But we
cannot clear away these barriers in day We
must have rapid transit as soon as may be, and
must push the work at top speed, no matter
how grievous and far reaching may be the
public discomfort and inconvenience. And our
new buildings in present conditions must go up
in a hurry even if the contractors are reckless
and negligent with respect to public and private
rights
We must put the best face we can on these
things, but in any event the good name of New
York for hospitality to the people who come to
town for the yacht races must be maintained
with undiminished lustre and distinction. And
the business men who visit Manhattan must
not be neglected. New-York must be true to
herself and to the honors which have been hers
in the past, which belong to her in the present
and will be heaped upon her in the future.

during his fathers reign. A complete
dependence on the sovereign is hered
itary in Prussia. This, in small mat
tiers as well as great, exercises ire
mendous influence On the sons relations
with his father, and, indeed, on family
life in general. Gustav Freitag, in his
book on the German succession, writes
"A farmers son who, with his family
inhabits a wing in his fathers house,
and possesses not a single shilling be-
yond his allowance, whose children are
kept by their grandfather, and EN-
ployed in looking after the plantations
on the estate-such man, who had to
put up with this dependent position for
fifty years, would be looked upon as es-
pecially unfortunate. Aud yet accord
ing to old traditions and the laws of
the house, the case of the German
Crown Prince is similar one.'

The Lost Flag.

As H. M. S. Ringdove was cruising
past one of the Solomon group of ISL
ands in the Pacific, the lookout reported
that the British flag was not flying. An
armed body of marines was promptly
sent ashore to inquire the reason.
The chief did not, according to Brit
ish Columbia paper, waste words in re-
plying. He summoned his favorite
wife, and when she appeared, pointed
to her. She was clothed from head to
foot in the missing Union Jack, the flag
having been cut and fashioned into a
loose-dtting blouse and skirt.
This, of course, does not settle the
question whether trade follows the flag
or the flag follows trade in the cannon
covered advance of empire, but 1t does
prove conclusively that the ladies of the
Pacific islands, when they acquire civ
illzation, will not need to take lessons of
their Angle-Saxon sisters in the art Of
making over"

rights of the great masses of the peo-
pie. He strongly opposed secession,
but was not an out and out Republican.
He might be termed a Douglas Demo-
crat He was a powerful orator and
had commanding presence. Because
of his services In maintaining The au-
thority of the government during the
early years of the rebellion, he was
considered an available candidate for
the Vice Presidency on the ticket with
Lincoln in 1864 and 1t was believed
that he would attract to the ticket the
support Of those people who did not
wish to ally themselves with the Re-
PUBLICAN party, but who were opposed
to the principles of the secessionsts.
Shortly after President Lincoln's death,
Johnson was sworn in as Chief Magis-
trate by Chief Justice Chase. He made
no pledges, but it was known that he
was not in accord with the pacific pol
icy of Lincoln in bringing about the
reconstruction of the Southern States.
He said, Treason is crime and must
be punished" This was the keynote of
his policy and it soon brought him in
conflict with the leaders of the Repub-
lican party. SO wide did the breach
become that impeachment proceedings
were instituted and President Johnson
was sustained by only one vote.
ARTHUR'S ADMINISTRA
When President Garfield died from
the wounds of an assassin's bullet, the
Republican party was divided into two
powerful factions, known as the stall
warts and half-breeds, the former led
by Roscoe Conkling and the latter by
James G. Blaine. The martyred Presi-
dent had favored the Blaine contingent
while Arthur was allied with Conkling
and his followers. Therefore, when the
Vice President succeeded to the Presi-
dency, the political policy, at least, of
the administration changed, but despite
his large following and the power of po-
litical patronage, he could not control
the next Republican National conyen-
ton He made good President, how
ever, and the country enjoyed peace
and prosperity while he was at the helm
of State.

life on the bottom exists in its
greatest beauty and profusion in water
that Is free from sediment and shifting
sands. On our Atlantic seaboard the
conditions are not very favorable, and
though annelids, mollusks and crusta-
ceans abound, the more beautiful forms
are scarce.
The delicate sea-pen lives on the mud
banks, and forms of great symmetry
are found; but this Is nothing compared
with the wealth of a coral lagoon. The
vertical rays of the sun reflected from
the bottom make the water as trans
parent as air; and as the boat slowly
floats across, one can gaze through the
glass in the bottom of the boat on a
scene of indescribable beauty. Great
branching masses of coral of varying
hue look like shrubs or even trees.
Wonderful anthozoa, or flower animals,
and the zoophytes, strange animal
plants, are distributed freely over the
bottom.
In other places great lichen-covered
rocks seem to be spangled with red,
star-shaped flowers; and through and

and browsing on the buds. No garden
can equal these oceanic paradises in
richness of variety of color; yet they
are filled with animals almost to the
exclusion of plant life. The lichen is

A short review of the Vice Presidents
who have become elevated to the Pres
idency by the deaths of the Chief Exec
utives may be of interest now.
"Tippecanoe and Tyler Too" was the
political slogan heralded by the victo-
rious Wings during the campaign of
1910. 1t made Gen. William Henry
Harrison President and John Tyler
Vice President. Just a month after the
Inauguration the President died and
John Tyler became the 10th President
Of the United States. He was born In
Virginia in 1890 and died In his native
States in 1862, when civil war was
rending his country. He was a gradu-
ate of William and Mary College and at
the age of 10 was admitted to the bar.
He was fond Of reading history, lover
of poetry and music, and, like Thomas
Jefferson, an accomplished violinist. AL
though opposed to the Wings, he was
not a supporter of the radical policy
of Jackson. "Old Hickory" and, there
fore, occupied to a certain extent an
Independent position. Despite this, the
State of Virginia always stood by him,
and for this reason he was a political
power When the Wings nominated
Harrison for President they were hap
by to accept Tyler as his running mate,
