New York, Jan. $50 far as its we'll
TODD population is concerned, New York
is coming to enjoy the unique distinction
of being a city whose citizens are never
at home. Formerly the fashionable sec
ton of the city was deserted in the sum-
mer, but from November to April the
social whirl cintinued with only the in
terruption of Lent. Gradually the stay
in the country has been heightened and
growth in POPULARITY of Fashionable fall
and spring resorts has cut off much Of
the time formerly spent in town. For the
past ten years the period of residence in
the city for those with fashionable as
pirations has been cut down to the weeks
between Christmas and Easter. Now
even this short period is being further
abbreviated for every body who is any
body must go away for winter
trip. The Mediterranean, Egypt, ia
pan, and India each have had their
turn in popular favor which is now
veering to South America and attracting
visitors to the little known cities and pic
turesque scenery of our Latin neighbors
below the equator. The first step in a
movement which travel authorities pre-
dict will make of South America one of
the most favored of winter resorts was
seen here this week when the great ocean
liner Bleucher left with a load of pleas
ure-seekers for trip that will cover
5000 miles, taking the members of the
party along the entire eastern coast line
of the great southern continent to the
Straits of Magellan and back. Interest in
these winter voyages is by no means
confined merely to the wealthy and fash
ionable of this city for it extends all over
the country and many solid business men
with no social aspirations whatever have
discovered that in the latitude and eli
mate of the greater part of the United
States winter is decidedly the best time
for vacation. So rapidly has the tide
of winter travel risen that steamship
men predict that within a few seasons
more it will closely approach the great
summer exodus. Naturally this influence
is most noticeable in New York and it is
fast making of Manhattan what it has
already been dubbed "A city of strang-
ers,'' it's own population scattered to all
corners of the earth.

Having done his best to care for the
bodily comfort of his citizens who are
inable to do so for themselves, Father
Inickerbocker has now been called upon
o supply their aesthetic wants. Already
here are municipal hospitals baths
bread lines and about everything else
,ecessary to the ply steal care of the
reedy But with the exception of free
ibraries the penniless esthete has had
title opportunity to develop his tempera-
tent at the expense of the city. Now,
,owever, it is proposed to remedy this
npardonabe defect, and Father knick-
'rbocker has accordingly been called upon
make an appropriation to be used in
furnishing free opera to the masses. The
.arsons making the petition pointed out,
nd with truth, that grand opera as now
resented here is beyond the purses of
ne masses and that it was therefore up
the city to see that their longing for
lassical music is satisfied. However. as
he chief engineer of the city presented
# the same time report showing that
1ore than $4,000 900 is needed at once for
treet Improvement, it seems likely that
,unicipal free opera is hardly likely to
q realized There are still a good many
leedy persons here who would prefer
cuttle of coal, a winter overcoat or a
,eefsteak to a ticket to the opera. and as
'ong as such remains it Is likely that
heir wants will be considered before
hose who hunger for music.

SnOW-mlnlng is now one Of the most
popular professions in New York and
whereas the street cleaning department
in the past has had difficulty in securing
sufficient men for the prompt removal of
the snow from the city streets, it is now
besieged by applicants who are anxious to
WELD the shovel in disposing of 1.-The
beautiful This sudden desire for snow
shoveling jobs, however, is not due to
civic pride, but instead to the fact that
this occupation offers opportunities for
sudden wealth, not through the wage
which the city pays, but by the finding
of valuable articles which have been
dropped in the snow. Certain locations
are of course much sought after and the
snow shoveler located in front of one of
the big hotels, restaurants or theatres
where the most Fashionable people con-
gregate is regarded with envy. Within
the last few days the finds of the snow
miners have amounted to more than $780,
100 in value. The discovery of a diamond
brooch in the snow in front of the Hotel
Astor brought it's lucky finder a large re-
ward for it's return. Only little further
down Broadway a $4,000 pearl necklace
was found in the removal of a drift,
bringing a reward of $4,000 to its discov
erer The Wall Street district too is pop
liar with the snow removers, because of
he large amount of securities daily car
ried through the street A messenger
BOY who recently found $4,000 worth of
negotiable bonds which had been kicking
about in the slush for nearly a week and
lad been passed by millions of persons,
as set himself up in business with the
reward which he received for their re-
urn Altogether the chances for making
zig money by digging in the snow are so
arge that some optimists have begun to
nope for the day when the city will no
longer have to pay it's street cleaners.
