VIENNA's DOOR-OPENING TX.
'Sperrgeld'' Nictimizes Flat Dwellers
 And Acts Like q Curfew

If English towns like Vienna paid
 ribu;e to walk abroad after nightfall the reign Of the janitor would be short. Vienna has form of personal impost iuty unduplicated iI any other city in the world. It is the ''sDerrgeld'' or 1oor-opening tax. Incredible as 1t may seem. the entire population of Vii enna numbering upward of 2,000.000, are imprisoned in their own homes be- tween the hours of 10 r. m. and q. m. They can only obtain access to or aS.ess from their hoUees by paying at least two pence to tho janito: or house master" the Niennese janitor system. AIillionaireS mad working classes alike live in dwellings of this kind. As q rule. the fiat houses have five or six floors. with four flats on each floor. Thus it is not unusual to find 100 persons living under one roof.
 For all these flats there is one com mon entrance from the street and af- Ger l0 D. m. this door is bolted and barred. Persons passing in or out af- ter l0 D. m. must psy twopcnce until midnight and fouTpencc CS ccnts) from that hour until G a. n. This eXasper ating impost must be paid every time one passes through the doorway. with out exception. In thousand and one ways the system makes itself unpleas- ant in the extreme. If man has oc- casion to go in and out half dozen times after 10 D. m. it costs him shiil- ing (25 centS).
 If you dine with q friend and stay after the hour for closing you must pay twopence A cents) to get out of his house and twopence more to get into your own. If you receive q telegram during the night it costs twopence for the telegraph boy to enter. If you go out to post q letter it costs twopence to reach the open air and the same amount to return.
 Naturally tho house master is the dezpUt of Vienna. The theaters begin al : or 1:30. that playgoers who have spent from to 70 shilIinGs Co cents 70 $@.Jo) for their seats may escape the house masters toll. The streets of Vii enna are as quiet as those of pro Vincial town after 9:30 o'clock. Per sons usually liberal in other respects have d strong natural aversion to pay ing this irritating but unavoidable tax. Those who go out to dine for d guinea t$ll will hurry home before ID o'clock

THE DISAPPEARANCE OF THE
NARROW GAUGE.

There will be general sentiment
of regret in Colorado, and especial
ly among the old timers, at the dis
appearance OF the narrow gauge
system of the Denver & RioGrande
railroad. For many years in Colo>
RADIO, Veta pass and Marshall pass,
the Black canon of the Gunnison
and Toltec gorge have been words
Of magic meaning with power to
conjure up visions Of all that is
grand and beautiful in mountain
railway engineering. There is even
a memory that goes back of these
things to a time when the Baby
road was all baby and Colorado
Springs and Pueblo drew their sup
plies and received their immigrants
over the narrow gauge.
Such sentimental considerations,
however, will not prevail for more
than a moment against the obvious
advantages of the broad gauge sys>
tenn. The disappearance Of the
narrow gauge began when the third
rail stretched itself out Of Denver,
and it has been continuing ever
since. The opening OF the main
transcontinental line through to
Grand Junction, some ten years
ago, involved the broadening and
Strengthening Of the line through
the Grand canon of the Arkansas
and the building Of the tunnel at
Tennessee pass and restricted the
narrow gauge system principally to
the area broadly known as the San
Juan, but including also the San
Luis and the Gunnison districts.
Now the time has come when
railway magnates and the people
generally believe that the broad
gauge line is a practical and econ-
omical necessity. The remote min>
ing camps have become centers Of
industrial activity and of social ac-
complishment. The valleys and
the plains across which the railway
builders pushed their lines have
been changed from primeval wild>
erness to productive orchards and
farms. The short curves, the heavy
grades and the small loads of the

About the most contemplate act
which can be committed against

by undue publicity to call attention
to their individuality or personality
in their dress or language. At
present there are residing in this
city a number of gentlemen Of for
eign birth, who are here solely on
a matter Of business. That business
comprehends the expenditure Of a
large amount Of money with our
merchants and the live stock indus

ognition whatever, save in a busi

business, pay for what is contracted
by them and are glad to be permit

to nauseous doses OF cheap publici'

they appeal for relief to the general

According to an expert writer in
the Petit Bleu, the heyday of diamonds
has gone, at least on the Continent.
Diamonds are succumbing to three
kinds of evolution:
O The evolution of moral taste.
1t is now considered bad form for la.
dies and gentlemen to advertise their
wealth by a display of diamonds.
(2) A scientific evolution. Thanks
to this diamonds are so wonderfully
well counterfeited that they are no
longer the sign of wealth. The larger
and the more numerous the diamonds
the more they are suspected of being
false.
(3) The evolution of artistic taste.
The diamond admits of hardly any va.
ration in shape or composition.
The great Continental artists of to.
day in the jewelry line use gold, silver,
even copper or iron, and produce with
them little marvels of art, in which
the diamond hardly ever enters, unless
in very minute and accessory way,
In order to animate" the whole.

A NATIONAL TRAIT.
Amiability the Bane of the American
Public.

AmiRbility the Bane of the American
Public.
Amiability is our national vice. We
are country contented. Satisfied with
our own superiority, fancied or real,
we have the sleek good humor which
is not disturbed by jibes or sneers.
Conceit has provoked contentment.
The result is an amiable public. That
aggregation of humanity which the
politician speaks of as "the dear pco-
pie" reverentially-in ante-election
times-is pleasant in speech and ac-
tion. Crowds are seldom cross. The
excursion company is a notable ex-
ample. However much the excursion
lists may be delayed or disappointed,
there is little of grumbling. Even
when they return late at night, tired,
worn out from the day of recreation,
they growl good-humoredly and are
merry in their misery. Seldom does
any assemblage of Americans degener-
ate into an angry company and then
only under the lashing of passion at a
crime or of heated advocacy of par
of politics than from any other reason
The election of some far-off individ-
ual whom we never saw and in whose
success nothing of Importance to our
selves is involved stirs the dregs of
discussion into a very ferment of furi
Gus strife. Political campaigns bring
always the dog days Of infuriated de-
bate.
The vice Of amiability is shown con-
spicuously in the behavior of the
American audience. The audience has
lost the right to hiss. So seldom does
any auditor exercise this right that
when some rude but honest fellow
manifests his disapproval of actor or
Of speaker his neighbors, losing for
the nonce their amiability, seek to put
him out. We permit applause, but not
kissing; huzZas, but not crys of dis
approval. Our audiences have con-
strued the right of criticism as mean
ing merely the right to compliment.
We are glad to read criticism in the
newspapers the next morning, but we
object to having it expressed audibly
at the time. Yet who can give suffl-
cient reason why an audience may not
express it's disapproval as well as its
commendation? Surely dislike may
as we'll be expressed as like. The av-
erage audience is too polite, too amia-
BILE, to do otherwise than applaud. If
it cannot cheer it sits silent.-St. Louis
Globe Democrat.
