When the figures for this year are all
in it will be found that the number OF
hotels built in 1902 was greater than the
number of private dwellings fact which
Is most startling inNits significance. New
York Is entirely unique among all great
cities, past and present, In this respect.
There are today in Manhattan and the
Bronx, 445 hotels containing an estimated
population of Lon, Co., and "A, 500 tenement
houses, with total population of l,sOO, 900.
The number of private dwellings is in
significant and rapidly decreasing every
year.
OF the AS hotels in this city at least 100
can be reckoned first class, according to
European standards of comfort and ele-
gance, and a dozen or more are immeas-
urably above any of the grand hostelries
The 0First Class Hotels" of Europe.
land, can only recommend eleven hotels
in that city as FIRST class'-the Cecil.
Savoy, Grand, Metropole, Victoria. Lang
ham, First Avenue Carlton. Grand Cen
trial, Princess and Russell, the Carlton
and Savoy being perhaps nearest TO the
American standard. None of these hotels,
however, can equal in the number OF
thoughtful conveniences those hotels in
New York, which might, strictly speak
ing, be reckoned as second class.
In no English hotel can there be found
q scene of such dazzling beauty as the
hall of Numidian marble in the Savoy
Hotel of New York, when at the touch
Of a button 1000 electric lights fash and
CLEAN from walls and ceiling.
None of the English hotels can offer its
guests as attractive and novel an enter
tainment as 10 afforded by the Majestic,
with it's roof garden of 10000 square feet,
thirty feet nearer to the clouds than the
Brooklyn Bridge, and on which every fair
summer evening promenade concerts are
given to the guests and visitors.
The best hotels of Paris also-the Ritz,
Elysee Palace, Grand, Terminus and Con-
tinental-with all their elegance, are not
in the same class with the marvellous no.
tel-palaces of New York City. The Grand
Hotel, for instance, which is the pride of
Pariisans for its magnificent proportions,
has exactly 0ne-half as many rooms as
the WaldOrf-Astoria.
The fact is that bookkeeping has BE-
come a fine art In New York and in no
other city. Here alone has the inventive
genius of man been allowed to do Its best.
Here alone have all the preventable dis
comforts and annoyanceS been prevented.
1t is no longer thought to be enough to
provide the most varied and delicious
food and the most comfortable lodging
Every convenience, comfort ana luxury
that the world contains is sought out and
offered to the fortunate patrons.

FUTURE OF TRANsvAA1's GOLD
A French Estimate that Production
Will Decline Within Ten Years.

In careful article on The situation Of
the Gold mining Industry in South At
RIGA" M Leroy Beaulieu the weli-knewn
French economist, sums up the outlook.
He gives only ten years more OF maxi
mum production, and less than twenty,
five years Of continued life. This second
estimate Is substantially that given cut
by John Hays Hammond, In an address
delivered here some months ago. NJ.
Leroy-Beaulieu speaks OF the mine sit
uation as follows:
insist that no new tax shall be placed
upon their industry within five years. In
our view, according to common right aud
all precedent, London has NO excuse for
imposing any war indemnity on the
Transvaal. She made war to capture the
country: she has captured 1t; she is in
demnifed by the fact of that capture.
Here certainly is sufficient indemnity, ac-
cording to all precedent.
The English regime does not confer,
and Will not confer, any special business
advantage on the mines. Reductions of
working costs especially in dynamite,
will be amply compensated for by new
taxes.
Our judgment is that the real gold
producing district, the Witwatersrand,
irum production for more than decade,
and that 1t ought to be completely used
up in twenty or twenty-five years at the
outside. What does this celebrated
uiStTlCt sui contain! II may De Salu as
a certainty that there are still 10 600, 900, 100
francs contained in it, But at the rate
of 100000 900 production per year, a figure
which is likely to be passed within FIVE
or six years, there can hardly be gold for
more than seventeen or eighteen years.
There Is no doubt that even after the
exhaustion of the Witwatersrand, other
gold-fields will be found in South Africa.
But will they produce the pTodiHious
wealth of that district? win they not
rather resemble the moderate deposits
of Rhedesia? Moreover, can the plan OF
goldmines to the depth of 5000
or 5000 feet be carried out, when the
deepest mines in the world-the copper
mines of the Calumet and necla of Mich
igan-have a depth of only 1900 feet?
AN the future of the British element
of the Transvaal depends upon the dura-
ton of the gold mines. To-day those |
mines are in gulf OF depression 1t |
may be presumed that Mr.. Chamberlain |
knows this fact, and will hesitate 80 give |
them the finishing stroke. |

King Edwards Height.

LOnuOp truth.
Why people should make bets on mat
ter about which they have no information.
and then ask me to decide them without
ascertaining whether l know any more
than they do, is one of the mysteries of
editorial life. Here is the latest example
of this singular practice:
Sir: | would esteem it favor if YOU
will kindly answer. in your Truth columns
or privately, what the height of King
Edward VII. is, as two papers have al
ready been written to. and they decidedly
disagree, one stating feet l-2 inches
and the other feet 1 inches, and l shall
therefore take your measurement as au-
thentic, etc"
One might have supposed that his pre-
vious experience would have shaken this
gentlemans confidence in editorial infal-
hbllity. Why did he not write to the
Kings tailor? i have never had occasion
to take His Majestys measure. But If
my guess is to decide the knotty point
| guess feet inches. No doubt plenty
of people Will be ready to correct this
off hand; but l do not believe l can be
more than half an inch out either way
Certainly both the figures given above
are under the mark.

threw searchlight onto the jungle-cov-

there. and knowing from his visits to
Alden what it was that his followers
hailed as a new star, told them that the
light was seeking him.
When the electric rays actually flooded
his encampment he cried in triumph

The Somall fell on their knees. beat the
earth with their foreheads, and replied;
Thou are truly the elect, the chosen. the

URIoUs IN THE WORLD.
The Stupendous Outlay for the Pal.

crease in Number of Pri-
vate Residences.


Among 1.-The wonders OF New York"
nothing is more wonderful than its hotels.
Perhaps more than any other marvellous
features of the city which have been de-
scribed in this series, they represent the
inventive originality of the American.
The bridges and tunnels. the Geological
Park, and the Aquarium have their like,
although not their equals, in Europe,
whereas the hotels of New York are built
upon a palatial pattern and conducted in
even comparison impossible. There is
nothing like them elsewhere, and there
never has been anything like them.
There are in all the cities of the world
places where the travelling public can find
food and lodging. but the hotel In all
its perfection-the hotel as at once home
and pAlace-can only be found in New
York
In size, equipment and ma gnificepce the
hotels of New York cannot be equalled
in any city of the world. They stand alb
solutely unapproachable for comfort, con-
veniencs and elegance among all the res
idential buildings ever erected since hui
man history began.
Grandeur such as Solomon in all his
glory" never knew, elegance such as Louis
XIV. never imagined. and comfort such as
none of the Caesars ever enjoyed are In
the hotels of New York at the service of
any untitled American citizen who can
pay the price.

of the present year as sign Of the times

were erected at cost Of Sc, $4,000 and
during 1902 work has been commenced
on ninety hotels, which will when fin

A Swell NsHshor.

The swellest 'newsboy" who ever yelled
"Extree!' in New York called his wares
at the entrance to the Brooklyn Bridge
carly one morning. With silk-lined over
coat and a diamond searfpin this elderly
man took his position at the bridge. a
pair of goldrimmed spectaeles added dig
nifty to his appearance. The stranger
attracted the attention of policeman.
He said he had been out to dinner with
trends and after starting for home found
he had only cents. The pawnshops were
closed so he bought cents worth of even
ing papers and started TO earn his way
across the bridge.
