Whether the farm or the factory

ITEMS OF INTEREST, INTERESTINGLY
TOLD, FROM THE NATIONS METROPOLIS

When James Gordon Bennett moved
the offices and business of the New
York Herald from Broadway and Ann
streets to the triangular plot of ground
at 35th street and Broadway, now
nearly thirty years ago. the pundits Of
the newspaper world of the time re-
garded him as more or less crazy, since
Park Row was then regarded as the
natural newspaper habitat. saw n

from a point at 34th Street, looking to-
ward 42nd Street. The Herald building
stood out prominently between small
stores and residences, with a few horse
drawn wagons and carriages in the
roadways. The building was designed
by Stamford White, the arcritect who

as getting into the center of things is
concerned. The great newspaper pres
ses that filled the showy basement
furnished wonderful object lesson in
fast printing to passers-by, who never
failed to watch them in operation by
crowds. The other newspapers either
moved uptown or opened branches in
the Herald's vicinity. chief among them
The Times, which placed itself in a
lofty flatiron building at 42nd Street
and Broadway, now known as Times
Square. Today the Herald building is
dwarfed by surrounding skyscrapers
towering up to immensity, Bennett is
dead and the Herald and Telegram
have passed into the hands Of Frank
parts Of the city. The building is
empty, lorn and silent. Where the
presses roared there is a deep we'll of
darkness, and the lively offices arc
boarded up. The property is still own
ed by the Bennett estate and is an ex-
tremely valuable site for business,
though the plot IL too small for a tall
building. There is n good deal Of agi.
tation on about a proposal to change
the name of Herald Square to Bennett
Square. Despite the injunction to say
nothing but good of the dead. many
who write the newspapers on public
matters deplore the proposal and give
vent TO considerable bitterness over
James Gordon Bennett and his absen-
tecism. At any rate the name Herald
Square no longer describes this great
local center.
