The FIRST GRAND CENTRAL STATION, MERE
MADISON SQUARE GARDEN IS NOM GOULD BE
PLACED IN The CYPRESS CONCOURSE
OF THE New TERMINAL

chinery. The whole fourth level of the sta
ton will be devoted to the baggage subways
through which the trunks and bags of pas
sengers can be taken to the transfer station
or direct to the outward-bound trains. The
passenger need have no thought of his in
cumbrances once he has got his ticket or
surrendered his check. When he buys his
ticket he passes on to the next counter,
from which check and tickets are sent by
pneumatic tube TO the baggage room and re-
turned after checking by the same means.
This new system has been in operation in
the temporary Lexington Avenue terminal
for some time.
The New York Central designates many
of its trains by specific names as well as by
numbers. This, also, is to help the passen-
gers a train which Is not named, but only
numbered, seldom sticks in the minds OF
travellers. The Twentieth Century Limited
the New Yorker, the Empire State Express
and dozen other famous trains are ex-
amples Of this. Consequently, 1t has been
determined to carry out the policy of nam
ing trains to a still greater extent than is
now in foree-all with the purpose of sim
plifying the travellers task of getting from
place to place, in and out of stations, at as
little trouble as possible to himself.
The railroads experts have spent years IN
studying the various questions mingled to-
gether in the construction Of this huge gate
way for the millions. The problem that they
have been solving has been to build a ter
minal so that any man who has never been
In New York before, never been outside of
his little home town in the Middle West,
perhaps, will find no difficulty, will feel no
sense of insecurity or bewiIderment in get
ting from his incoming train to his ultimate
destination, no matter where that may be.
All he will have to do will be to follow the
crowd and ask question If he is in doubt.
SOME STATISTICS.
To those who like figures, the following
statistics will be of interest. The total area
of the old terminal was % acres; that Of
the new will be 20 acres, or an increase of
about 230 per cent. The old terminal had
a capacity of $50 cars the capacity Of the
new will be Lac cars.
The station building proper will be 600
feet on the street Level, 800 feet wide and
los feet high. Below the street level 1t will
be 745 feet long, $50 feet wide and As feet
deep. $1,000 tons Of steel will be used in
the construction of the new terminal
The main concourse WHY be entered from
42d Street. 1t will be 40 feet wide and
loo feet high. The floor level will be about
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1911-03-22

10 feet below the grade of 42d Street It
connects only with outbound trains. The
arriving concourse will be on the easterIy
side of the building. On the suburban track
level will be another coneourse. Each win
have independent exits and entrances.
LOOKING FORWARD.
1t is probable lthat several magnificent
hotels will form part of the group Of monu-
mental buildings that will rise above the
tracks adjacent to the terminal. If the.
traveller decides to stop at any Of these, or
at some other near by, he win be able to pass
directly thither without going into the street
at all or climbing any steps His baggage
will be whisked underground and viii reach
his room almost as quickly as he viii.
1t is impossible to say how long this
huge terminal is likely to meet the situa-
ton. The old Grand Central, which was
thought sufficient for a hundred years, was
outgrown In less than 40. To-day New
York has population of nearly 5000, 900.
Young men Of to-day may live to see II
city of 100000. The rest of the country
is growing apace. All this means that year
by year more and more millions Of people
will pass through this gigantic gateway
that we have been building. No man can
say when the day will come that they viii
begin to crowd and jostle each other In
passing and yet bigger gateway will have
to be built.
THE THEATER OF GREAT EVENTS.
The Grand Central of the future will Be
like its predecessor what its name implies
great center Of the city's life. 1t win be
the theater of historical events The old
structure which is now no more Is rich In
its memories. The old Grand Central has
welcomed every President of the United
States since it was built. Hardly a foreign
dignitary has visited this country who has
not passed through its portals. It has been
the center of distribution Of every great
celebration that the City Of New York has
known for two score years.
There is no place In the world where thu
human currents meet and cross and mingie
in such volume as at the Grand Central.
1t is one of the great crossroads of the
world. 1t is safe to say that II man should
walt there long enough he would be pretty
sure to meet everyone be knew and to see
every famous parsonage in North America
1t is like the gateway Of one of the ancient
walled cities-eyeryone, from one end Of the
land to the other, passes through It sooass
or later.

will low. 1t moves forward without the
least friction. Men cannot run into each
other and get quarrelsome, for they are all
moving in the same way. If a man wants
to pick fight he must overtake someone
ahead of him. The ramps are so wide that
there is no excuse for people jostling each
other%
The express concourse Is but six feet lower
than the sidewalks of 42d Street.-The slope
of the ramps Is almost impereeptible The
difference between the level of the concourse
hoor and that of the express train platforms
Is also so slight that there is almost no
grade at all in the ramps between. This is
partly accounted for by the fact that the
station platforms are raised so they are level
with the floors of the cars into which the
passengers enter.
A woman with her hands full of parcels
or luggage cannot pick up her skirts when
she is going downstairs. They drag and
sweep the steps, which is annoying and dan
gerous in many ways. People will step on
them and stumble, and accidents cannot be
avoided. Going down these inclined ways,
however, there is little more chance of fall
Ing when hurrying to catch a train than
there is when one Is Fastening along level
floor. Lots Of people, both men and women.
fall down stairs every year hurrying to catch
trains. Whenever an accident of this sort
occurs it is pretty likely to be followed by
suit for damages. A railroad not only
does not want accidents of any sort, but it
Is willing to spend good deal of money to
prevent them and to keep people pleased.
The New York Central people believe that
by this system Of inclined ways throughout
their great terminal that they will not only
save money BY eliminating accidents, but
will add very materially to the comfort and
pleasure of their patrons as we'll

IS HUMAN VACUUM CLEANER
Amanda's Economies In Line Of Good
Housekeeping Have a Screw
Loose.

Long before the introduction OF
the vacuum cleaner Amanda had
achieved by sheer persistence of arm,
the energetic welding of broom and
brush, the precise results accom-
plished by this excellent invention.
Her husband whimsically complains
that the house is always in process
of renovation and seldom is a con-
dition which can be considered COM
Portable and livable, but he is a mere
man and little can be expected Of
him. Of course, Amanda is i'll from
time to time, usually as the result of
doing more than she ought. She has
headaches, backaches and nerves that
are on edge. Her sons slip out Of
the house in the evening because
they prefer to be where they are not
reproved if they draw a chair from
its place or leave a newspaper on the
floor. Her daughters enjoy visiting
much more than staying at home,
and her maid seldom remains longer
than week or two. She had nine
teen successive maids in a single
season. Somehow Amanda's econ
omies in the line of good housekeep-
ing have screw loose. She observed
one day that she sympathized with
the women who liked to have her
house perfectly ordered and who
then wished that she could take her
family and live in the barn so that
the house need not be disturbed.

INVISIBLE INDIANS.

10 wonderful way of walking unseen
f-9stng themselves invisible like
cers1 spiders, which, in case Of
alarm taused for example by a bird
siighting on the bush thsir webs ara
Ispresd upon. Immediately bounce
themselves up and down on their
elastic threads so rapidly that only
"a blur is visible. The wild Indian
power Of escaping observation, even
where there is little or no cover to
hide in, was probably slowly ac-
quired in hard hunting and fight
ing lessons while trying to approach
game, take enemies by surprise, or
get safely away when compelled to
retreat. And this experience trans
mitted through many generations
seems at length to have become what
is vaguely called instinct.-John
Muir, in the Atlantic.

HELPS CONvICTS TO REFORM
Splendid Work Being Done by otf1elzls
Of John Howard Industrial Home
at Boston.

What society shall do with dis
charged prisoners is slowly but sure
ly being solved by the John Howard
Industrial home at Boston, which
celebrates its twentieth anniversary
soon. A most pathetic object is the
discharged prisoner, who thinks ev-
cry passer-by sees the prison stigma
upon him. This saps his courage
and he slips back again until once
more he is associating with crimi-
mails. The Howard home seeks to
furnish him with grip upon a new
life.
During the last 20 years nearly
$1,000 discharged prisoners have
been cared for by the home until po-
sitions have been found for them.
The home was founded in 1890 by
the present superintendent, Albert
Arnold, and several other workers.

perintendent Arnold, his kindly face

Every one has good points.
"Too much criticism is directed
against them for the slightest errors.
All they need is encouragement in
order to forget the old life and start
the new"

STRANGE oATHs."


Before Mr.. Justice White took the
oath Of chief justice he was required
Ito subscribe to the "oath of allegi-
ance" required of all ex-Confeder-
ates entering upon federal Office,
When Judge Buchanan presented
himself in the Tennessee supreme
court az a member of that body APP
pointed by the governor a few days
ago, he was called upon, under the
law Of the state, to swear that he
had not engaged in a duel since the
passage of the statute on the subject
and that he would not do so during
hs term of Office.
II is well that judges on the bench
be bound by sufficient formal obli-
cations and pledges. AT the same
time such oaths as those mentioned
were formulated for times far other
than the present, and ii might be
well 10 abolish them.
