In collecting material for a book he In

anew YORK A MIDNIGHT
BEAUTY" HE DECLARES.

New York has changed greatly since
that time NJ. de Tessan added In
fauitless English. II admire more thai
here. and I think your city. particularly
at night. has grown much moro beauti-
full.
"Nsw York seems 10 me Q mid

We have no o gardens in Paris. and
I have devoted all the article which
I wrote for lie Matin this morning to
describing the crowds saw there
gathered about a COW. In Paris / do
not think a COW would pay as a theatri-
cal exhibit. And I saw persons fishing
also. The idea OF fishing on q roof
would seem 10 Parislans very amusing.
But II is an interesting taste. 1t leads

vate: to be able not to work In ones
old age: but the poor Frenchman does
not dream always OF millions as the
poor American does, We have our
great financ'ers. but they DO not con-
stiute a national ideal.
The ideals of harmony, Of beauty, Of
good taste, are very strongly developed
