a representative of The Tribune
WAS hailed by Proprietor Rice of the
Fremont hotel and asked to take
look through the working part of the
hotel. We were ushered into the
back yard through gate on Petroleum
avenue; it is wrong to call it back
yard tor we found it we'll kept lawn
with flower beds, shrubbery and clean
walks. To the right and detached
from the main building is cottage
OF Ave rooms nicely furnished and
steam heated for the use of the help.
tached to the west wing Of the main
building is the refrigerator building, a
one story brick with eighteen inch
walls and cemented cellar. On the
ground floor of this building and OH a
level with the kitchen floor stands the
refrigerator larger refrigerator than
is seen in most butcher shops. This
refrigerator was manufactured after
the plans of Mr.. Rice. 1t is equipped
with McRay's patent ice pan. the
walls are lined with mineral wool,
the ice compartment holds two ton,
the ice being put in from the outside
thi ough the brick wall. One side of
the refrigerator is devoted to the use
of the meat cook. and the other side
to the use OF the pastry cook and for
milk and butter The scheme in all
refrigerators is to preserve the tenn
perature and right here Mr.. Rice has
introduced some of his original ideas.
His refrigerator has ten doors aud the
object of so many doors is to give
access to all parts of the interior by
opening one of these small doors op-
posite the part desired. Each door is
provided with Conroy patNht fast
ener and all compartments have ther-
mometers to indicate the temperature,
large meat block stands near the re-
frigerator equipped for cutting meats,
the same as any other butcher shop
The cement cellar underneath is for
storing fruits. vegetables and cured
meats.
There are three doors opening from
the refrigerator building into the

main hotel kitchen, and such kitch.
en-; almost as big as the dining room
On the west side OF the kitchen is the
big double oven Majestic steel range
where the meat cook does the meats
and vegetables. attached to one end
four feet in front of the range stands
the zinc top serving table. fourteen
feet long on the outside of this table
the walters line up and file in their
orders to the busy meat cook in the
warm place between the table an6 the
range. Overhanging the large range
and up next to the ceiling is a large
Russia iron hood which gathers the
heat and fumes and from which they
escape through two obiong perpendic-
ular openings to an eighteen inch
draft stack on the outside of the
building which extends above the
roof. Hanging from the ceiling i'm
mediately above the serving table 10
the regulation hotel pan rack from
which are suspended cooking utensils,
some of the sauce pans SO heavy that
they are good weight for both hands
On the same side of the kitchen next
to the meat range is the pots and pan
sink, and next to this comes the dish
sink which is fourteen feet long In
front of the dish sink stands large
table which will hold wagon load
of dishes and ON this table the walters
deposit the dishes as they come from
the dining room. The dish washer
stands between this table and the dish
sink and washes dishes by the hun
reds.
On the east side of the kitchen next
to the vestibule entrance to dining
room is regular counter enclosed
underneath at the end of which stands
an enameled sink for washing silver
behind these against the walls is
shelving with glass doors and this is
the pantry department. Next to
this about the center of the east side
of the kitchen stanos another large
steel range Of the Majestic make on
which the pastry cook does her bak
ing; next on the same side comes the
pastry counter back of which is the
working board, underneath the work
ing board is the patent rolling bins
for all kinds of flour and sugars. each
bin holding two hundred pounds, and

equipped with square four and eight
chair dining tables. The dining
room walls and ceiling are beautifully
decorated and like the Kitchen there
are no posts nor columns. So large

heavy oak chairs has delightful
effect and is highly appetizing. The
large double doors opening into the
office lobby and the private entrance
from behind the Office counter or
splendid specimens of workmanship
and models of convenience aud the
door opening behind the Office counter
is another evidence of originality in
planning hotels, for il puts the en-.
tire dining room under the eye of the
Office force and enables clerk to seat
guest and see that he is properly
served whenever the head waiter hap
pens to be busy; from this office coun-
ter the office 70 ce has plain view
of both main entrances to the hotel,
the office lobby, the ladies' lobby,
the main stairway, the individual
writing tables, the back yard, the
laundry entrance, the outside entrance
to the refrigerator room, the entrance
OF the boiler room and by taking two
steps the clerk looks through special
window and soes the entire kitchen
aud what every employe is doing in
there and Proprietor Rice says that he
does not know of another hotel office
so planned but that it would be much
,tter if all hotels were so PLANNED.

directly underneath the kitchen is
the laundry room, thirty-five feet

To the left and under the east
wing of the hotel is the boiler room
The boiler is forty horse power
horizontal tubular steel boiler. four.
teen feet long with full cast iron
front, the whole thing bricked in to
confine the heat. The boiler is high
pressure, hut as ten pounds of steam
heats the entire building and the
cottages, no special attendant is nee
essary to run it, The boiler room
is large enough to install machinery
for all purposes needed in large
hotel besides space for storing coal Of
which there are twenty five tons now
on hand The coal is shoveled from
the wagon into the mouth of chute
which lands it nearly in front of the
boiler. There is a basement under
the entire hotel building and the part
directly under the dining room has
three large sample rooms each of
which has outside and inside en-.

the basement to the office lobby.
The lavatory is on the Office floor A

behind the office counter.
Check rooms and many other con.
veniences are close to the counter
The floors above with their sump-
tuous furnishings are familiar to most
of our citizens. Linen rooms, toilets
and bath rooms are on each floor.
But for perfect euuipment designed to
AZ complish the greatest result with
the smallest force of help the end is
gained right here in the planning of
the Fremont hotel.
Absolute cleanliness exists in every
department and many original ideas
looking to the saving OF labor are
carried ont in the construction of this
hotel.
Mr.. Rice informs us that his bust
ness is increasing right along and that
he is agreeably surprised at the re-

The First PantOmime.

Most pantomime characters were originally borrowed from the Italians. The first real English pantomime was produced at theater in Lincoln's Inn Fields in 1720. It was called "Harle- quin Executed" and its subtitle was "A New Italian Comic Scene Between a Scaramouche, Harlequin, Coun- try Farmer, His Wife and Others" The performance was very successful. About the middle of the eighteenth cen tury the character of pantomime per formances was completely altered, chiefly because of the genius of the fa- nous Grimaldi, who made the clown the first figure of the pantomime. Gri- maldi first appeared at Sadler's Wells theater, where he played the part of monkey. He was actively engaged on the stage for forty-nine years, and at the close of his stage career he took a benefit at Drury Lane theater, which realized nearly f6OO. He also received f1OO from the Drury Lane fund. This was in June, 1928. He died in 1887 and was buried in the churchyard in St James chapel, Pentonville hill.-Lon' don Standard.

Animals ana rofsons.

Certain substances which are deadly in their effects upon men can be taken by the brute creation with impunity. Horses can take large doses of anti mony. dogs of mercury. goats of tobac- co. mice of hemlock and rabbits of belladonna without injury. On the other hand, dogs and cats are much more susceptible to the influence of chloroform than man and are much sooner killed by 1t. If this invaluable anasthetic had been first tried upon animals, we should probably have nev- CT enjoyed its blessings, as it would have been found to be so fatal that its discoverer would have been afraid to test it's effects upon human beings. It is evident, then, that an experiment upon an animal can never be the means of any certain deductions so far as man is concerned.-Family Doctor.

 Divorce in Japah.

A traveller recently returned from Japan tells of some of the queer laws in that country concerning divorce: "A divorce on the part of the husband is easily obtained. One of the legal causes of divorce Is If the husband find the wife too loquacious.' Yet in all my long experience in Japan have met only one man who discarded his wife, and l never met with a family where dissension existed. nor have l ever heard of husband treating his wife with severity, although the same cannot be said of some parents-in-law. who consider their sons wife mere chattel.

 ance of girls and women testifes of a lightness of heart not always found in other climes where their sisters have more abundant means of happiness"

THE COOKBOOK.

To boil cream the day before en- hances the richness of the coffee into which 1t is poured.
 The remnant of stewed or preserved fruit left from tea will improve tap ioca pudding the next day.
 To cook carrots quickly add small piece of soda to the water in which they are boiled. This will improve the flavor of the vegetable.
 To prevent gravies from becoming lumpy remove the pan from the fire while the thickening is being stirred in, after which set the pan back on the fire and cook thoroughly.
 Several green coffee beans left to soak in the unbeaten white of an egg will color cake icing q delicate green. The beans should be removed and the egg whipped and used for the icing.
 If bread has been baked too brown or if the crust has been blackened In an oven made too hot, do not attempt to cut off the black with q knife. AS soon as the loaves are cold go over them with coarse grater. ."'

Reason to Be Happy.

What is the use of being at odds with tho world? What is the use of being blue and Respondent? The world is full of trials for us all-has plenty of trouble and worry to hand out even to the best of US from time to time. But there would be no need for men and women-we could all be babes-if there were no great life problems to solve, no burdens to bear, no sorrows to live down. These are the balance wheels of life. They are the trials we have to face in order to strengthen us and broaden us to the opportunities and the real happiness that riches do not command nor poverty bar.-New York Mail and Express.

Passed the Bottle Too Quiceiy.

Will Low. the painter. told story of the Latin quarter days of Robert Louis Stevenson. Low and Stevenson were great friends In their youth. Their friendship indeed continued up te the time of the writer's death.
 : "Louis," said the artist twas no less diplomatic than brave. He could be fiery, and he could also be gracious and pacific. One night, remember, we sat in a garden In Montmartre. The red wine had been flowing pretty free. 1y, and one of our party got heated and aggressive.
 "Finally some one said thing that this fighting chap disliked. As soon as the words were spoken he grabbed up c bottle and hurled 1t at the others head. It was strong, true shot and would have hit the mark had not Ste venson sprung to his feet and caught the missile.

The recent St. Andrews dinners, ac- cording to the Westminster Gazette. have been noteworthy for the profu. sion of Scotch stories, which in several cases fairly set the tables in a roar. Some of them have an ancient ring. but there is one that is perhaps not generally known. A doctor was at- tending dangerous case where a Scotch butler was engaged.

Early Rising Not A1ways q virtae.

Eorly Rising S0t AlWevs c virtue
 Thousands of people have no choice whatever about their hour of rising fiji the morning. Later or earlier, that hour is fixed for them by the require ments of the office, the shop or the classroom, by the time table of the rail road, by the arbitration of their em- ployers or the necessities of their em- ployees. But in the cases manifold where personal liberty is enjoyed 1t should not be thoughtlessly restricted simply because of the domestic tradi- tion that early rising deserves praise and late rising blame.
 Breakfast may often be h movable feast without materially disturbing the routine of an orderly housekeeping day. Invalids, mothers whose rest has been broken by teething babies and, above all, rapidly growing children, should have their sleep out. Nature demands this, and violence is done to her when sleepy people are rudely aroused from their beds. Early to bed is the single safe prescription to insure early to rise.
 We need to repeat it over and over to our hurrying, anxious, toiling Amer ican men and women: Rest, rest and again rest. Do not think time i'll spent that is spent in repairing the ravages of our well nigh incessant activity.
