stantly being added to please its guests
and increase It's facilities for caring
for them. Despite Its constant crowds.
there is always an air of spaciousness
and comfort about 1t.
The latest thing at the Albany. In
which mine hosts" Sam F. Dutton
and Mr.. Eppstein, take particular pride.
Is remodeled and rechristened dining
room. THE Italian Garden" near the
Seventeenth street entrance. Just back
OF the office.
Among the attractions Of this beau
tiful room are its high ceilings. its
walls covered with profusely blossomed
English Rambler rose vines and it,
wealth of ferns, palms and shrubs In
ornamental vases. Among It's shrubs
are English box trees. imported from
Belgium, and a rare species of ever
green from northern Russia. Large
columns are draped with vines and
ornamentsd with foliage plants. Hang
ing baskets decorate the windows.
In the center OF the italian Garden
Is a brilliant electric fountain, sur
mounted by beautiful female statue

themselves as II in their native stream.
A delightfully."- airy effect is pro-
duced by great number OF song birds
suspended from the ceiling by invisible
threads aud swaying with every move
ment OF the air. as II In the act OF fly
ing. The Illusion is greatly Increased
by several mechanical singing birds
whose notes are very close to nature.
The furniture OF the room. its ta-

and mahogany, is in keeping with ..s

cosy.
The Italian Garden is lighted. day
and night, by beautiful chandeliers. and

In the extreme.
In the dining rooms and halls Of the
Albany grape vines and rose vines
are used with the utmost profusion,
making them all bowers Of greenery,
but perhaps the crowning touch is
given In the Italian Garden. which
vies In its attractions with the best
rooms In the country and is nowhere
surpassed in the originality, good taste
and effectiveness Of Its decorations. 1t
is things like these that make the Al
bany one Of the most talked-about ho-
tells In the country and cause its
guests to come and come again anc

GLASS TOLD OF DEATH.
Three Times It Cracked, and Each
Time Child Died.

Hospital attendants are not super
stiticus. This may be because they
see death in its multiple forms and
therefore become calloused and skep-
tical. An incident at the city hos
pital recently. however, will long be
a subject for conjecture and discus
sion, says the Cincinnati Enquirer.
On the desk In the receiving ward
water glass, stainless and very
heavy. is kept for the use of the en-
ployes. To guard against its break

desk where nothing can strike 1t.
One afternoon, when there were no
patients in the ward. sudden click
was heard. Archie Miller an attend
ant. looked at the glass and noticed
crack about half an inch long in 1t.
which had not been there before.
Scarcely ten minutes elapsed when
the telegraph instrument announced
the death of Louisa Young in the chill
dren's ward.
The coincidence might have been
forgotten had not 20 minutes later the
same click been heard on the desk,
when Miller again looked at the glass
and noticed second crack trife
longer than the first. Again there was
a short interval of silence, when the
ticker spoke once more. telling of the
death of Edith Williams, also in the
childrens ward. By this time the
strange warning became subject of
comment in the ward.
A third time. however, the omen
was repeated the glass sprung an
other crack. and shortly after the
death OF Joseph Manning, who lived
at 424 West Third street, was an

got under the COW and gathered all

and put the ends of them between the
rubber rollers, just easy, and the boys
gathered round to see where my in

at. Then when my audience was all
ready to cheer me, II the machine
worked, took hold of the handle of
the machine, which was across my
lap, and turned the crank with quick
motion, until all the cows weiners
went through between the rollers, and
noticed the COW fiinched. and just
then one of the sophomore boys
threw a giant firecracker under the
cows basement near the milk pail,
and when the explosion came. Just
when 1 was cranking her up second
time and turning on the high speed
clutch, the COW bleated as though she
had lost her calf, and she went up
into the air like the COW that jumped
over the moon, and she went across
the country on cavalry charge, with
me hanging on the handle Of the
wringer with one hand, on her tail
with the other, and the boys giving the
orphan school yell. and the COW bel

suggestion of the appearance of the

work here has been completed some
months in advance OF the similar addi-

meal was coming from, and where we

New Sewing Bags

DRETTY new sewing bags are made
Of silk bandannas, finished at
the top with a wooden stick
which Is run through a casing. These
sticks are fiat like those used in win
dow shades. and the bag made with
them Is far easier to keep in order
than are thoee pulled up by the aid OF
ribbons. OF course, ribbons are used on
these new bags. but they are run
through bone rings which are sewn to
the top Of the casing.
These bone rings are a great improve
ment over those of brass. which were
formerly used: the latter always be-
came rusty at the seashore and never
were neat and pretty like the bone ones.
The bone rings may be purchased for
about cents a dozen. while the sticks
may be procured for little or nothing.
Have a hole punched at each end of the
stick through which it may be tackled
in place to the material. and then when
the bag goes to the laundry the stitches
may be ripped, the stick pulled out. and
no harm will be done in the washing.
