The Height of Houses.
From the Architectural Record.


In Paris the height Of the houses in linn.
tied, the limit varying according to the
width Of the street on which the house
Is situated. Nothing could be better. Hy-
giene requires that the sunshine find its
way into the narrow streets as well as
into the broad thoroughfares; while,
speaking from esthetic point of view,
what can be expected of a street where
house Of two stories is thanked by sky
scraper Of twenty? Hence, there is GER
streets. One cannot imagine a house OF
twenty-five stories on the Place de rEtoile,
facing the Arc de Triomphe. Millions are
going to be spent I'm New York upon the
construction Of a superb library. The
architects are highly cultivated men and
men of taste. They will put up an edifice
which will do honor to the city. This edi-
fee is going to stand In q small garden
bordered on it's four sides by streets, the
time, Of a reasonable height. but once the
library Is built the neighboring ground
will rise in value, and 1t is probable that
before ten years have passed the existing
houses will have given place to immense
skyscrapers. Surrounded by these mon
sters the library will appear insignificant
and the architectural effect will be de-
stroyed.
The Paris mun'c ipal regulations are also
very strict In regard to the front. In GER
tain streets uniform fronts are insisted
the Rue de Riveli, which is bordered by
arcades; and so. too, is 1t with the Place
Vendome. We like the picturesque, but It
must be admitted that very fine effects can
be produced with symmetry and Uniform
ity. -

To Pool Tips to
Walters In Hotels

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-Jacob
Rothschild, proprietor of the Hotel
Majestic, has just returned from a
four months tour of Europe, during
which he made a close study of con-
tinental hotels. AS a result of his
observations he will introduce in his
hotel some of the ideas in vogue on
the other side.
One of the most interesting and i'm
portant of these will be the estab
lishment of a common fund into
which all fees received by walters
shall go, and then be divided pro
rata among knights of the napkin
and salver.
II found" said Mr.. Rothschild.
'this method to be followed in all the
Ritz hotels, and that it works to the
satisfaction of all concerned. All
fees are placed in a pool by the wait
ers and the total amount divided
among them equally. The effect of
this is that every guest Of the hotel
obtains attentive service and the one
who gives a small fee, or none at all,
is not Disseminated against.

BASEBALL PROSPECTS.

AS the baseball season is nearing
the close the local Fantown is agog
and discussing with more or less
avidity what the situation next year
is to be. The idea which seems most
prevalent at this time is that Spokane
will be included in the Pacific Coast
league. Appearances would indicate
that the enthusiasts who are specu-
lating along these lines are right.
Over in the copper state is being
agitated a Montana league. compris-
ing the cities of Butte, Helena, Great
Falls and Missoula. Butte is the
only city in that state that can sup
port a team in a league of such pre-
tensions as We have. had this sea-
son. AS the greatest mining camp
on earth" is now boosting the pro-
posed state league, to revive interest
in another baseball war, which has
proven so disastrous this season. is
just about an impossibility.
The combative bumps of the mag
mates throughout the circuit want
more fight, but the pocketbook will

late has been centered on the topic
of a coast protected league, in class
A, to comprise four northern and four
southern cities, of Spokane, Tacoma,
Seattle, Portland. in the north, and
San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento
and Los Angeles in the south. Har-
ris and Morley, the big its who have
so cleverly waged war on the Ma
tionals, are known to favor the scheme.
OF course, President w. II. Lucas of
the p. N. l.. will fight to the last for.
besides being a clever magnate. he is
above all fighter and will cling to
the enemy with the tenacity of an
octopus. Can't blame him, either.
But we vouch If an opportunity is

draw from his fight with any degree
of grace he will do so for the sake
OF the game. A baseball war is not
at all what 1t is touted to be, es-

in every port they visit.
