every afternoon and night. The
moving electric light signs here and
in the city are wonderful and at
tractive.
We visited and were shown
through British Liner soon to
start for an 8 days trip to Glasgow
This was very interesting and |
think Harold would have been will
ing to take the trip.
We rode under the east river as
Harold wanted to walk back over
the bridge. thought it would take
five or ten minutes, but it took over
half an hour to walk back over the
bridge.
We visited the big department
stores of John NVannamaker and
others. John Wannamaker has about
five thousand clerks and sells every
thing from hundred thousand dol
lar set of furniture down to five
cents toy.
had heard mucl of the Hippo
drome the largest theatre in the
world and went there on Saturday
night. The seats had all been sold
and l could only get standing room.
There were 5000 people beside
about 500 on the great stage. The
view and acoustics were SO arrang-
ed that all can see and hear from
all points. They are running trip
to Japan and I felt that | was on
the>streets of Toxic. l had never
conceived of such immense views
and beautiful scenery. The ocean is
shown on the stage with lighted
ships going here AMI there in differ
ent directions, or railroad trains,
business streets with the natural
moving masses plying their daily
routine, or the magnificent per-
formances with 500 actors and &C.
tresses in beautiful spangled COS.
tunes, or the navy on the high seas.
The whole stage may be removed
(behind the rising eurtain) and in
stead there is a pretty lake upon
which gondolas float and soldiers
march down into the lake on out
of sipbt into the Whter not to re.
turn. Harold thought whole com
pany was drowned. After Is or 90
minutes they emerge again from
where they had swula out into some
other point. We saw the Mikado
and his palace and the high 'ifers
of Toxic. The singing by so many
voices was ch arming.
We went up through Central
Park to the Metropolitan Art Mu-
scum. There are hundreds of fine
work of arr in plaster, marble, oil.
Before we left home Miss Grace
Tompkins told us we should spend
week here and we regretted that
we could not do this.
The Piazza hotel through which
we went, is said to be the finest in
any country. 1t is a thing of beauty.
Everything was closed on Labor
Day. But the> thf ongs thronged.

BAD STORM VISITED
 THIS CITY LAST NIGHT
Wires Are Down in All Directions Local Hot Houses Damaged by Hail Streets Were Like Rivers For HOurs-Federal Building Caught Fire.

One of the heaviest wind storms, accompanied by rain and hail, that has visited this city in months swerj over this section for several hours Monday night, doing much damage to property. The storm was accom- panied by magnificent electrical dis play and the hail was so large that it broke windows in street cars, smashed plate glass window in a Main
 street store and destroyed hot houses of local florists. The Federal build ing, nearing completion at Second av- enue and Walnut street, caught fire during the storm from crossed wires. but the heavy rain extinguished the blaze. Billboards and fences were blown down all over the city. Streets were like rivers for hours and wires are down all over. the city. The ser, vice of telegraph companies and tele-
 phone companies are crippled and the Cotton Belt railroad reports It's wires down as far south as TeKarkana and Shreveport, La. At midnight the rain, which began to fall at 6 o'clock, was |still coming down in torrents.
 A. A. Harper, who has large num- Der of hot houses on East Sixth ave-
 nue, reports damage to his buildings to the extent of $15o. A plate glass window in Wolf Nichols Main street store was shattered during the storm. A large billboard on West Second avenue on the lot adjoining the Elks Theater was blown down
 early in the evening and pedestrians
 narrowly escaped injury.
 The storm practically killed busl-
 ness for the downtown theaters and
 social affairs had to be postponed.
 Early Monday evening the western
 horizon was beautifully illuminated
 from a fire, which appeared to be Ill the southwestern suburbs of the city, but efforts to learn cile nature of the Iconflagration were unsuccessful.
 At midnight no telephonic commun- ication could be furnished to Little Rock. The Southwestern Telegraph
 and Telephone Company reports
 wires down in all directions. No loss

OUR EX.PRESIDENTS.

The whole nation is looking Wash
 ingtonward these days. A President
 has laid aside the duties of our great est office and a private citizen bends his back to the great burden. For about seven and half years MT. Roosevelt has been the President He assumed it's duties when younger by several years than any other who had become President. Gen. Grant was 47 years of age when he took the oath of office. Grover Cleveland was about a year older. Mr. Roosevelt was not quite 43. He leaves the-2residency when to all appearances n the very

NEGRO MINISTRIES
 AT THE ELKS

Maharas negro minstrel aggrega- tion gave performance at the Elks Theater last night and despite the heavy rainfall a large number of ne- groes turned out to see the show. The chorus of the company is excep- tionally strong and two or three good dancers were offered ia the olio. The minstrel performance as a whole lacked originality and like all colored performers the comedians carried their comedy to extremes. The top

prime of his mentality and physical development. No other President re- tired at so youthful an age. He gives promise of many years of activity always. of course, of a political char acter. Our ex-Presidents never cease entirely to be political factors. Near ly all of these have, however, lived quite while after leaving the public service William Henry Harrison, Taylor, Lincoln, Garfield and Mckin- lev died in office. George Washington , lived a few months more than two years after his retirement. The two Adamses were long-lived. The father lived 25 years and months, and John Quincy 19 years, serving most of that. long period as member of the House of Representatives. Thomas Jeffer- son and James Madison lived l7 and l9 years, respectively. Monroe lived q little more than years, and An drew Jackson years and 3 months. and lived in aggressive retirement, a power in politics, more than 21 years. {, John Tyler lived 17 years, but James K. Polk died in Nashville within 3 could not have been gotten out by out the term for which General Taylor was elected, lived in elegant retire ment 21 years. James Buchanan last ed years, and Andrew Johnson 5 years and 4 months, being a Senator at the time of his death. General Grant lived years and f months. Mr. Hayes lived 12 years, Mir. Arthur 1 year and 8 months, Grover Cleveland nearly II years. and Mir. Harrison 8 years.
 As stated, Mir Roosevelt is a more youthful man in years, and probably better man physically, than any other ex-President. He will probably be for long while very prominent in all discussions of public nature. -o@O-
