Archbishop's HospItaIity.

London in the eighteenth century
did not afford so many free shows as
at present, but visitors who knew the
ropes could then obtain at least one
sumptuous dinner for nothing. The
author of lie Guide de Londres pour
les Voyageurs Etrangers," published
1710, writes: ''If you feel disposed to
dine well without unloosing your
pursestrings, and at the same time re-
eeive hearty welcome, go and see
my lord the archbishop Of Canterbury,
who keeps open house at Lambeth
every Saturday. and is most cordial
to foreigners, especially If they be
men of letters. 1t is advisable to ar
rive at my lord archbishop's palace
not later than noon, so as to be pre-
sented without any dificulty. Send
your name in to one Of the chaplains,
who will present you to my lord, and
after dinner viii show you the treas
ures of the library"

ANXIOUS TO AIR NEW WORD
Norwegian Guide Seized Opportunity
TO Make Use Of knowledge He
Had Recently Acquired.

"The guides who pilot visitors about
in Norway" said a returned traveller
"are pleasant, intelligent set of men.
They speak our language fairly well,
and are always anxious to pick UP new
words.
Occasionally this desire leads to
funny mistakes. While exploring some
of the wild and precipitous cliffs one
day with my guide, we came upon a
spot which looked like an abandoned
quarry.
"'What is this, Karl?' asked. Have
they been getting out stone here?'
"'Yes, sir he answered; it is
where some time ago they have been
shooting the rocks.
"'Oh, yes; blasting l said, with a
smile, and KarI's quick ears caught
the new word for shooting. l heard
him murmuring to himself two or three
times afterwards.
THE next day our journey brought
as into large tract of magnificent
forest. Kari said !, there ought to
be fine hunting here in the season.
Eyes, sir was the prompt reply,
very good hunting. Then, with the
air of man who seizes an oppor-
tunity, he added, proudly, Indeed, it
is near here, sir, that we blast many
bears"

PRESERVING SAVIOR OF LIFE
Undue Curiosity, If Gratifled, Would
Inevitably Develop Race
Of Fatalists.

To find that the earth itself is but
queer little appanage of a rather sec
ond-rate star; to know by actual vision
that we are all plunging through
space, perchance, during the period of
known history, having accomplished
small arc Of some immense orbit
whose magnificent center burns be-
yond the farthest nebulae; to feel that
stars have famed and died whose light
has never reached us--is not all this
knowledge a fierce Indictment to our
desire? Whittier are we bound. and
why? What fate awaits US at the end OF
the awful journey? Are we placed
amidst this mighty universe for pur-
pose, to watch, to wonder, to worship?
Is the whole scheme built round us, so
that, though we are not Its physical
center, we. may be it's spiritual center,
and for us all its tremendous opera
tions are carried on, for us it's pro-
foundest mysteries shall some day be
disclosed? Or are we the subject of
trifing experiment by great unknown
gods, who, curious in their turn, spy
at us for their diversion, and will in
a moment destroy it all, as a child
wipes out a drawing on his slate?
We say unthinkingly that we wish
we knew the answers to these ques-
tions. But, if we did, the keen SAVIOR
of life would vanish; curiosity killed,
we should become utter fatalists, and
that would be the end of US. For the
thought that by increased knowledge
comes access of power. and that we
can, even to ever so slight an extent,
shape the future to our will and thus
bear our part in the destiny of human
ity. is the inspiration of all thinkers,
the burden of all philosophers, and the
belief Of all the great dreamers who
have moved the world.

taken unto himself a second wife. For
summers almost numbers Mr.. Hilliard
has been the life and spirit OF the
little colony by the sea. By common
consent he has been its mayor" He
has settled ali disputes, refereed the
tennis matches and acted as master
Of ceremonies at the weekly dances
in the little casino. When the first
Mrs. Hilliard died suddenly at Saas-
conset last summer Mr.. Hilliard's
grief was sincere and overwhelming.
The couple had been a most devoted
one. When the lady who keeps the
only shop of any sort that Siasconset
boasts ventured to suggest to MIR. Hill
lard that in the course of time he
might find another mate, the actor
vowed in his most impressive stage
tones that such could never be the
case. The other members of the col
ony feared that Mr.. Hilliard might
keep his word and that Seasconset
would know him no longer. But now
he has dispelled their fears and with
his new bride he probably will spend
the summer at 'Sisconset without the
miss of a single season. The fact that
the new Mrs. fHilliard possesses a for
tune of $2,OOO0OO, inherited from her
father, New York brewer, may help

When italians sail from this port in
the steerage of the big liners to see
their families in the mother country
they are searched at the gangways by
expert seamen who take away all re-
yolvers and knives and give each man
a check with which he can reclaim his
property on arriving at the port OF
destination. The same rule is applied
bv the steamship AGENTS when the
emigrants embark in Italy for Amer
ica. The object of depriving these
passengers of their weapons is to pre-
vent any trouble arising among them
while aboard ship. On one steamer
recently, where the men were allowed
to keep their clasp knives, Small
fire was discovered in the forward
steerage, and before the officers real
lied what had happened, the Sicilian
rushed on deck, ripped the
canvas covers off the life boats and
sat in them waiting for them to be
launched.

At midnight tonight the famous old
Grand Union hotel closes its doors
for good and passes into history. The
property. which takes in the entire
block front on the east side of Park
avenue, between Forty-first and Forty
second streets, has been condemned
by the public service commission for
the purpose of constructing the new
crosstown line of the subway to con
meet the Lexington avenue branch
with the Fourth avenue subway line.
For many years the Grand Union hotel
has borne very much the same rela-
tons to the upper part Of the city that
the old Astor house did the downtown
district. The original building was
known as the Westchester hotel and
was opened about half a century ago.
1t never changed its old character Of
a commercial house, and its reason
able prices, combined with the fame
of its restaurant, made the name of
the Grand Union celebrated through
out the country. In early years it had
little competition, but Notwithstanding
the fact that the Grand Central sta
ton vicinity has in recent years wit
messed the advent of half a dozen of
the largest and finest hotels in the
metropolis, the Grand Union appar-
emily has never lost custom, and there
have been few nights in the year that
it has had a vacant room.

The winner of the $4,000 prize Of
fered by Winthrop Ames of the Little
theater for the best American play by
an American author is expected to be
announced next week. The contest
was begun a year ago and closed last
August, when more than 1900 manu-
scripts had been submitted. The plays
were submitted anonymously. The
prize was the largest ever offered in
a contest of this kind. OF the great
number of plays submitted a surpris-
ingly small number were rejected as
ineligible, which left the Judges with
much work to do in selecting the best
manuscript. The judges are Mrs
Ames, Adolph Klauber and Augustus
Thomas.

Louis XIV. There were also first edl-

others. The collection included also
an interesting letter to Mrs Doane

New York, May although no def
mite plans have been announced for
the social entertainment of the Queen
of Bulgaria, who is to arrive in this
city the latter part of this month, it
is understood that society will open
it's door to the royal visitor and en-
tertain for her on a large and regal
scale, 1t is considered unlikely, how
ever, that the element of society com
monty known as the smart set" will
take any part in the entertainment of
the queen, since her majesty cares
little for the mere gayeties of social
life. The probabilities are that the
royal visitor will accept few invita-
tons except from those women Of so
ciety who are allied with the great
charitable and philanthropic enter
prises at home and in the Orient.
Yelling styles this season are moth
ing if not unique. A number of effects
which even year ago it would have
been thought impossible to sell are
now being shown and are said to be
proving popular with the buyers. Vari-
ations of the beauty spot idea show
the greatest latitude in design. One
of the prominent houses in the trade
is now bringing out these effects with
question mark taking the place OF
the ordinary dot, and for the girl who
likes baseball there is another effect
in which bat and ball are worked
into the veil Another popular effect
made by the same house shows a liz
ard in place OF the dot.

The Joint commissions OF the states
Of New York and New Jersey, pri-
marily created to devise plans for
bridging the Hudson, have been
brought seriously to consider the al
formative Of tunnels under the river
as highways for general traffic and
travel by ordinary vehicles. This
looks as if bridges over the Hudson,
although talked OF for many years,
may never materialize. The most con
elusive argument in favor of tunnels
and against the proposal for bridges
is the fact that while the estimated
cost Of a bridge is $42,OoO.OOO, two
tunnels, one for movement in each
direction, could be constructed under
the river for not more than $1,000, O0O-

Charles D. Walcott, secretary of the
Smithsonian Institution at Washington,
demonstrated that huge beds of lime
stone were the work of microscopic
plants known as algae, which he said
solved mystery that has long been
