And don't think for minute that 1t is necessary to sneak around in the dark places here; it is generally just as safe out in the glow of the bright lights as it could possibly be in a secluded nook sur rounded by silence, and shadows. Times square knows little of Columbus circle and Fifth avenue Is ignorant of the pro- ceedings along Riverside drive, while to the West Side the East Side is a foreign land.
 Oh, yes, there is virtue and morality here, but they never seem to make them selves obtrusive; they never butt in on the other side, apparently, and, judging from what the eyes may behold. and from what the newspapers publish, that other side Is in a pitiful minority. And the newspapers, with all their energy and cleverness, can get but 8 small part of the scandal of city like this.
 New York's opportunities and influence are shown even by her visitors. Ask anyone who has lived here a year or longer. If he has not seen friends from other cities completely changed while upon Manhattan Island. have known quiet men of other towns to become very noisy integers of Broadway. sI have seen them wear canes here. drink here, go out with women here, when in their home towns they would unhesitatingly frown severely upon anything of the kind.

yanderbilt's Horses to Rest

London, October 1s.-(Special.) .)--Al1red vanderbilts famous coach horses will never do any more work and are going to have happy time for the rest of their lives. It has been decided that they will never be sold nor driven. It seemed to me. the other day, when saw them. that they were wistfully watching for the master who was so devoted to them and had only to say word to make them obey. He liked to flourish whip. but never. never, did he touch them with it. What splendid quartet they are, so plump and spruce, and dandy, but think 1t was splendid notion on the part of their masters friends to decide that no one was ever again to drive them. Surely, it was Just what he would have wished. Some other American has offered to buy Mir. VanderbiIts house. boat--it used to be the most decorative on the river with it's blaze of red geraniums. His flat in Park Lane is shut up. What jolly pal, les there used to be there, but somehow all who knew him best thought him sad man at heart. and though he was always so courteous and kind he would lapse into long silences as if he were thinking hard. But he was aiways sportsman. a grand. splendid sportsman. and he died one.

 Home life? Why. the average New Yorker will tell you there is very little married life here-that'is. of the old, ideal persuasion. From the creme de la creme to the scum de "a scum married life in this city is almost openly smiled upon.
 New York seems to have come to the conclusion that nature has so mixed in men and women certain elements that the one must have the other, and that even sacred VOWS and rites and rings are not enough to overcome and hold in check the nature forces. It believes that what most people guard most carefully is reputation mot character. And here deception is made easier than in any other city in this country. ts
 ~~New York knows that if the silver tongue silencers of maids. buffers, valets and even hall and elevator boys were re, moved there would pour forth such vol- umes of scandal in both high and middle life that even war would be wiped of the first pages of the daily press of the Amer ican metropolis.

But to return to the Sac Paulo tram way, which is now controlled by the Brazilian Traction, Light and Power company, Ltd. It has perpetual con- cession and an exclusive concession for the street cars until 1941, and for the electric lights and power until 1919. The company is capitalized at $10,- 0oo,000 and it has an issue of $6,oo0,000 worth of 5 per cent gold bonds. do not know what its dividends are, but they must be enormous.
 As to the Rio Street Railway com pany, which leases the Sac Paulo line. it is chiefly made up of North Ameri- cans. It Is one of the largest financial institutions of Brazil, supplying all the gas and electric lighting to the capital of the republic, and in addition the most of the street car transportation. It owns also the telephones and sells light and power to industrial institu- tions. This company has capital of something like s1OO,000,0o0 and it's gross revenues are seven or eight mil lions per annum. Its gas pipes have a length of APO miles, and its electricity is carried through pipes which measure something, like 300 miles. It's street cars and It's electric light systems are supplied by waterfalls in, the noun tains back of Rio de Janeiro, the falls being about 50 miles away. The light ing system is excellent and Rio de Janeiro uses such a large amount thai it is said it's lights can be seen twice as, far away as those of New York city.
 Among the American institutions in Brazil is the Mckenzie college here at Sac Paulo. This is one of the chief edu- cational institutions of South America, and it has students from every part of the continent. The college Is undenomi- national, governed by a board of trustees in New York city. It was founded in 1886, having developed out of Presby- terian mission school known as the Escola Americana. Some of the buildings are gifts of United States sena.ors, and the head of the institution is Dr. Horace M. Lane, who was born in Maine, went to college in Missouri, and got his doc tor of laws. degree from the University of New York. He came to Brazil to pra ctice medicine. but was induced to take the presidency of this institution, which he has made famous for it's high educational standard. The most of the students come from Brazil, but of the 900 now in the college, 163 are Italians, 73 Portuguese. 53 Germans, A Americans and 99 British Altogether, something like 5000 students have been graduated from the institution, and of these nearly 4000 have been educated free of charge.

And this brings me to the traffic of Sac Paulo. The city is one of automo- piles and taxicabs and motor trucks. I rode in a taxi from the railroad sta- ton to my hotel and the charge was much less than I would have had to pay in Boston or Washington. On the way I saw an automobile fire brigade go flying past me. The hose cart had half dozen men on 1t dressed in fire mems uniforms and wearing helmets that glistened like jet under the electric street lamps. Behind came the motor engines with brass shining like the golden chariots of a king, and still farther back was the ladder truck. moved by a motor. These were followed by motor ambulances and by motor trucks for carrying away the debris of the fire. H <
 Among the cars see, on the streets are hundreds of our best American makes, and I might say almost thousands of a well known cheap machine that is shipped from Detroit and sold all over the world.
 There are few cities in the United States that have better street car sys- tenn than that of Sac Paulo This is owned Dy AmerlCan ana CaQduldn Capi- tai, and it is managed by Americans. Many of the cars come from Philadel- rhia. others were built in St. Louis. The wires run on overhead trolleys upheld by great iron poles in the wider avenues and stretched from building to building across the streets in the business section. The power comes from the River Tiete, which has falls within 33 miles of Sac Paulo estimated at 24.000 horse power.
 The same company that operates the Sac Paulo tramway and light power is the owner of the street railway sys- tenn of Rio de Janeiro. It is a company we'll known in the United States, being organized by Dr. F. S. Pearson of New York, and having among it's chief direc- tors Alexander Mckenzie of Toronto and Perciva1 Farquhar of York, Pa., and New York city. The street cars here have some features different from those of the United States Nearly every line in Rio has its bag gage de- pertinent. and there is a parcel delivery that Is run in connection with the street cars. You can go to the mark ct and send your purchases to any part of the city at reasonable rates. In Rio the company has a large central sta- tion and 15 receiving stations. The packages sent are of all sizes. You can forward a pound of butter or ton of iron. The cars are used by companies and factories and stores for carrying their freight, and the cotton and flour mills have standing contract as to the delivery of goods. The cars are also used for carrying building materials and in Rio de Janiero they do the most of the sprinkling of the streets.

gymnasium, and it has schools of phar- macy and commerce, as well as a con serva tory of music which is subsidized and a scientific one. It has historical and geographical societies. Pasteur in stitute, meteorological institute and one for studying snake poisons which is cele- brated all over the world. It has four teen daily newspapers, as well as a num- Der of weeklies and monthlies. It issues journals in Italian, French, German and Syrian, in addition to those in Portu- guese, the language of Brazil. The city has many charitable institutions. There are half dozen hospitals and asylums or less subsidized by the state and mu- nicipality.
 fine homes of Sac Paulo. This is a city of coffee millionaires, of land barons and of other men who have made more or less money in industries of one sort or other. Some of them live in palaces, each of which is worth a small fortune, and not a few have cost over $100OOO in gold. There are also many beautiful homes of one or two stories surrounded by gardens. The climate is such that palm trees will grow here and you have the vegetation of both the tropical and temperate zones. The gardens are beau- tiful, the rose trees vieing with the palms In their splendor. The city has over 50 parks and three public gardens.
 Sac Paulo is growing faster than any city of this continent. Just before the war in Europe made times tight they were constructing new houses at the rate of s4O0O year, and companies were being formed to develop the suburbs. One of these had its offices in London and it's capital was s100O0.0O0. The city had only 26.000 about 40 years ago. It now has over half a million inhabitants and 1t is believed that within the next 15 years it will double in size. In addition to the increase by immigration. the birth rate is S9 to the thousand and the death rate is low. It has now been decided to build a $2,000000 cathedral and there is a hotel company that expects to build two hotels at a cost of more than s1,O00,O0O. At the same time the town is improving it's roads. A system of highways is to be constructed going from here to different parts of the state, and concessions will be granted to motor ear companies giv- ing them the exclusive rights to carry goods and passengers over such roads. These concessions will last for 30 years. but there is provision that the con- cessionaires will rebuild the roads at the close of that time and that they shall maintain and keep them in order during the term of the concessions.
