"Rests Harrow' in Real Life

From the New YOrk Woflo.
 The romance of the young Newark couple who eloped and lived in Cats kill cave has been rudely interrupted. The police have taken them in charge on request from the girls parents. So difficult is it in Puritanic stage of civilization to realize ideals of happi- ness that conflict with the marriage law.
 Here were two young people who were conscientiously attempting to ap- ply the social philosophy of one of the greatest of living novelists. Here were a Senhouse and a Sanchia in real life. How much the youth may know of the Greek anthology and what particular goddess is reincarnate in the girl is immaterial, as is also the fact that be- cause of climatic conditions they were obliged eventually to take refuge in the railroad station for warmth. In all its essentials the parallel holds true. For six weeks the lovers made the cave their home. They eked out their scant fare with the small game they shot and the fish they caught, and no doubt botanized ana discoursed on the higher law of happiness and the barbarity of social conventions.
 But alas! they attained Rest Harrow only to have 1t snatched away. Their matrimonial gypsying is over. It has been brief episode of untrammelled love in conjunction with the simple life, but one which should cause satis- faction to the British author whose precepts they followed. MT. Hewlett henceforth should have a kindly feel ing for Newark.

Success of the No-Tip Hotel

From the w dSlllHSloH IOot.
 Blessed news, to be as yet circulated with bated breath and whispering num- bleness! The no-tip hotel has come to stay In short while no more imperious headwaiters standing with solemn stare and in awful dignity awaiting the fate fee that Is the only open sesame to fairly decent seat and fairly good attendance in the spacious but crowded dining hall; no more the garcon with supercilious look as he disdainfully pockets the douceur that to you seems Brobdingnagian,bu but to him Lilliputian; no more the page boy suggestively casting longing lingering looks behind after he has delivered his message or deposited your suitcase in your bedroom; no more the tyranny of the long array of foreign domestics who fcregather in the entrance hall with ex- pectant palms to speed the parting guest considerably frightened for his journey by their hitherto connived-at depredations.
 The hotel which was started in London . year ago last September on the ro-tip principle and on other up-to-date lines. including first-class service, appoint ments, music, and food at moderate and reasonable prices, has cast up its ac- counts, and finds that during the first g41h weeks of it's existence its profit was El,717, enabling 1t to declare a dividend of per cent on it's 1S0,00o participating preferred ordinary shares, as well as pay ing debenture interest, and setting aside substantial amounts toward depreciation, redemption fund, and reserve.
 During the whole time in which 1t has been open this handsome hostelry scarcely ever had a room vacant, and those who had the good fortune to be catered for under its hospitable roof are loud in their rraise of its comforts, conveniences, and ic m in, in nj oyno either; If a guest Is found offering a gratuity, he Is politely requested to give up his room, and if servant is found soliciting or taking one, the penalty is instant dismissal. rtssS ss4.55

 Tt has everything to do with it. You
