FED" HOTEL OPENS IT'S DOORS.
Attractive Home for Small Salaried Girls
Provided hy Clubwomen.

The City Federation Hotel for small salaried
working girls No. 4S2 West 22d street, has its
first guest. She is black-eyed Jewess. and the
management, recalling the old legend that black
eyed man entering a house New Years Day
brings good luck have concluded that black
eyed young woman entering house on its birthday
ought TO have the same effect. So the first guest
has been adopted a mascot.
She has quite 2 romantic history, and the fact
that the hotel has been able TO offer her home
when she had great need of is considered good
omen and prophetic OF what it will do for many
others of her sex. Having renounced the religion
having been befriended for while by the Saliva
ton Army. she heard Of the new hotel and applied
for admission.
At present she is the only guest, for, owing to
the recent bereavement of the president, Mrs. Belle
de Rivera, there has been some delay in complet-
ing the furnishing. and the place will not be ready
for general occupancy until Monday
The dornlitories are nearly all Furnished. with six
neat little iron each of the large old-fash-
toned rooms. There TO be screens around these
beds later. There are also three Chifoniers and
three mirrors each room. and there are sewing
machines intended for the use OF the house in three
Of them.
The house is a picturesque old place. and seems
TO have been specially designed for its present use
There are endless closets and lockers in all sorts
of unexpected places, and overlooking the little
back ward. with stately trees Is a broad
veranda which Will be converted into an outside
sitting room in summer. There will be also on the
ground floor a large inside sitting room, with an
open fire and mission furniture. The attic, when
was formerly rented to artists is arranged in the
most approved artistic STYLE and there is a hand
some staircase leading up TO a domed skylight
