A FAMOUS CARPET.
The First One Thet Was Used In Old
New York City.

New York City.
II haven't learned everything about
my business yet" said the young car
pet salesman, but I've picked up somo
information that's interesting even If
it isn't new.
For instance, not everybody knows
that 1t isn't so very long ago-only
about 200 years-that nobody had "A
carpet in New York city. They didn't
use rushes strewn around for floor COW
ering, as they used to do In England,
partly, L suppose, because rusheS,
whatever they are, were not plentiful
and partly because they preferred
sand. Certainly sand sprinkled on Al
bare floor seems cleaner and better
than PUSHES, and it has some advan-
tages over a regular carpet. Anyhow,
that was what they used in the houses
Of the aristocracy.
But carpets came In fashion in New
York at the very end of the seven
teenth century, and the man who intro.
duced the fashion was Captain Kidd.
He wasn't pirate then. He was cap
tain Of the Antigua, a packet ship ply
ing between here and London, and
was a citizen and q householder in
this city. In 1892 he married Sarah
Port the widow of another ship cap
tain, and set up housekeeping in Han,
over square, then an aristocratic quar-
ter.
"1n that house on the floor of tho
best ROOM as they called it in those
days, was the first carpet known TO
ha@ been in use in New York. 1t was
valued at $50. which doesn't seem OK
travagant even as money was then
v&lrcd. That may not be an Important
fact. h"t it's interesting. Now Yo:iS
