Bellefonte, Pa., March 19, 1897.
GREATEST HOTEL IN THE WORLD.
Probably very few even of those who
have watched the walls of the new hotel
which John Jacob Astor is erecting at the
corner of Thirty-fourth street and Fifth
avenue, New York city, as they have
climbed up beside the Waldorf, fully real-
ize what a colossal structure these two
hotels, which are practically a unit, will
form. The two buildings are complimen-
tary ; they will be under one management.
and though under different ownerships,
will be so connected as to be simply ‘‘parts
of one stupendous whole.’’
Taken together they will comprise not
merely the largest and finest hotel in the
world, but the most colossal occupied
structure in existence. Indeed there prob-
bably never was but one roofed building
to surpass this in size. That was the im-
posing Hall of Manufactures at the World’s
Fair. This was the greatest building ever
erected by man. It was nearly 800 feet
wide, nearly 1700 feet long, and over 200
feet high. The ground space that it occu-
pied was twice that of the great pyramid of
Cheops, and though any church in New
York could be placed in the vestibule of
St. Peter's yet this was three times the
size of the great Roman cathedral. The
Coliseum again, though that was but an
open air circus, seating something like 80,-
000 people, while the huge structure at
the World’s Fair would have seated 300,-
000.
RIVAL WORLD'S FAIR BUILDINGS.
It is difficult to compare the Hall of
Manufactures and the Astor Hotel, since
they are of such widely divergent charac-
ter. The first contained but a single floor,
the latter fifteen and eighteen. The floor
space of the World’s Fair building was over
a million and a quarter square feet Some-
thing like 6000 tons of steel and a thousand
tons of iron were used in the construction
of the Manufactures Hall 5 some 10,000 tons
of steel are employed in the new Astor
Hotel alone, and nearly twice this in the
combined structures. And the Hall of
Manufactures was designed for a day and
the Astor hotels for a century.
Take another comparison : The largest
roofed structure in the world was the
famed Roman Pantheon. It was 188 feet
in diameter and 148 feet in height. The.
ground surface covered by the Astor hotels
i3 considerable larger than that covered by
the Pantheon, and their extreme height is
over 240 feet. There is enough steel, brick
and stone is these hotels to build three or
four Brooklyn bridges, and the Russian
army, not to speak of our own,could be mob-
ilized under their roof. -
COSTLIEST ON THE CONTINENT.
Government constructions, aside, the
new hotels will comprise the costliest
stracture on the continent. The Hall of
Manufactures was completed at an expense
of $1,700,000. The total cost of the Astor
hotels will be in the neighborhood of $8S,-
000,000, and their furnishing and equin-
ment will cost $2,000,000 more. The
roof of the new hotel is 20 feet higher than
the soaring monument on Bunker Hill,
while the pinnacle of Trinity spire and the
id vane of the hotel are almost on a
evel.
The uew Astor Hotel—it is not vet |
named-—grows out of the remarkable social
and financial success achieved by the Wal-
dorf. The laster was erected by William
Waldorf Astor, and upon its completion a
Year or 80 ago alinost immediately became |
the publit social centre of New York.
;
Throughout the season its rooms and its |
dining halls are usually crowded, and it |
has paid so handsomely that John Jacob
Astor readily took up with a suggestidn to
build a complimentary hotel on the adjoin-
ing ground which he owned.
The facades of the new hotel conform to
that of the Waldorf, both being of Balti-
more red pressed brick and red Longmead-
ow sandstone, Both hotels have a frontage
of 100 feet on Fifth avenue and are 350
feet in length. The Waldorf is 13 stories
high, with two sub-floors, and the new ho-
tel 15 stories, with the same substructure.
A DINING JIIALL A BLOCK LONG.
The yoking up of the new hotel with its
twin will make many radical os in
the present appearance of the Waldorf.
The main dining room of the latter will be
continued in the new hotel so that it will
occupy the whole front of the block facing
Fifth avenue. The beautiful garden court
of the Waldorf will likewise be duplicated
in the new hotel, doubling its present size.
All the upper halls of the Waldorf will also
be connected and continued with those of
the new hotel.
- But it is less in these details than in
other ways that the construction of the
‘hotel is notable. Its frontage on
Thirty-fourth street, an almost un-
broken facade extending 350 along the
strect, and more than 200 feet to its top-
mast cornice, is altogether the most impos-
ing thing of its kind to be seen in the oity.
Extending along the base of this facade
will be a lengthy portico, covering the
sidewalk for about 160 feet, two stories in
height, and supported by twelve granite
columns. In the centre of this portico will
be the main entrance. The latter will be
semi-circular in form, witha lofty fountain
in the centre. In this portico a driveway
will be formed, through which carriages
can drive in and out entirely under cover.
The colonnade which will surround the en-
trance will all be of plate glass and iron,
door included, and will he one of the most
notable architectural features of the huild-
ing. ; (
WALLS OF GLASS AND MIRRORS.
Entering through this splendid vestibule
the traveler will find himself in the midst
of a splendid spectacle. The entire lower
floor, including the main dining room, the
waiting rooms, the halls, the office, the
cafe, the garden court, even the bar room
will be cut off by partitions of glass, so
that from this doorway the eye may sweep
the entire scene. the view. unbroken save
by the iron columns and the floral decora-
tions which will be a characteristic feature.
The idea comes from the proprietor of the
Waldorf, George C. Boldt, who likewise
will have the new hotel.
A BALL ROOM LIKE A THEATRE.
Altogether the most notable feature of
the hotel, however, will be the new ball-
room. The latter will be on the second
floor, and in the area of unobstructed floor
space and in the magnificence of its deco-
rations it will be, its architect thinks,
somethink unequaled anywhere in the
world. It will occupy the entire western-
ly end of the building, and the dancing
floor will have an area of 85 by 96 feet.
The ball room will rise through three
stories, to an extreme height of forty feet,
and overlooking the floor will have two
tiers of galleries, divided off in boxes on
the easterly side, while a conservatory will
extend the entire length of the room on
the westerly side. Lit with a thousand
electric flames,’with the usual lavish dis-
play of flowers and adorned by the beauty
and fashion of New York, it is likely that
here in the social season, the eye may rest
upon as dazzling and moving spectacle as
the social world may present.
Not far away, and also on this floor, will
be another spacious apartment, seventy-
five feet in length and extending through
two stories, along the street front, directly
over the main entrance. This will be call-
ed the ‘“Astor gallery,” and will likewise
be sumptuonsly decorated and furnished.
It will be used as a banquet room or for
private balls or dances, and outside the
long portico over the main entrance will
form a covered balcony, in front of the
rooms, which will be used as a promenade
in favorable. weather.
GREAT FEATS OF ENGINEERING.
Neither the gallery nor the ball room
will be obstructed by a single supporting
column. How then are their ceilings to
bear up their tremendous weight of four-
teen stories of steel and stone which rest
upon them ? That was the problem which
the architect had to solve ; it was some-
thing unique in architecture and called for
an extraordinary [piece of engineering. To
support this immense weight three enor-
mous trusses had to be devised for use
above the ball room, and three others above
the dining room and these are horne upon
columns of unprecedented strength. The
whole had to be so arranged not to inter-
fere with the arrangement of the halls and
apartments in the stories through which
they pass. These monstrous trusses are
each fifty-one feet in heighth. They ex-
tend from the fourth to the sixth floor. ris-
ing from a broad base eighty-four feet long,
from centre to centre of pins, to a ‘narrow
chord, seventeen feet in length.
These are the heaviest and most massive
trusses ever constructed, as is likewise the
central column of the building. The latter
carries a colossal load of 5,400,000 pounds.
It is only thirty feet long, and yet it itself
weighs 46,000 pounds.
The main trusses over the dining room
are twenty-six feet deep and fifty-one feet
long, and both these and the ball room
trusses are so concealed in the partitions of
the building that no one passing through
the corridors would for an instant suspect
the presence of these giant pillars.
There is an ice making and refrigerating
plant capable of suppiying twenty-five
tons of ice per day for the Waldorf alone.
That for the new hotel will double this.
There is one man who does nothing but
wind clocks.
Altogether, the combined hotels wiil re-
quire over a thousand employes, and the
pay roll for these alone will be over $35,
000 per month.
Last year the provisions and wine bill at
the Waldorf was more thana million dol-
lars.
Nearly $200,000 worth of wines are kept
on hand all the time in a locked wine cel-
lar, where nine men are constantly em-
ployed, and no one is admitted without
the ringing of ‘a bell.
The two hotels, with the ground upon
which they lie, will have a value of not
less than ten or twelve million dollars, pos-
sibly more.
. The little private street which John
Jacob Astor and his
have made merely to completely insolate
the two buildings, is alone worth several
hundred thousand dollars at current
prices.
The new Astor house will have combined,
some 1300 rooms, and in the busy season
it is probable that they will turn away
guésts each day. An average of $4 a day,
and this is certainly low, means an income
of $5000 a day from this source, and the
restaurants and dining rooms and bars
probably bring in twice this.

the Papal income.
cipally by the poorer classes in the various
Catholic countries ; but, if all Catholics in
the world were to pay the entire expense
of the Vatican, a pittance of three-quartérs | hody, taking a half hitch around his leg,
of acent from each would furnish suffi-| so as to be sure it would not slip up around
cent funds. The ‘Department of State,’’
which is managed by Cardinal Rampolla ;
the Legations in France, Austria, Spain
and Portugal ; the nuncios in America,
Bavaria, Belgium and Brazil and the other
diplomatic representatives of the Holy See
cost at least 1,000,000 lire. The Cardinals’
College, consisting of six Cardinal Bishops,
52 Cardinal priests and 14 Cardinal dea-
cons, costs another 1,000,000 lire. This
includes, however, charge of the Palace,
the 15 Cardinals in who are prefects of con-
gregations and the six Cardinals in charge
of Papal cabinet offices and ministers. The
greatest item of cost is the household prop-
er. At the head of thisis the majordomo,
then the high chamberlain, the cardinal
auditor and - the master-of-the-palace ;
among the other high charges are the secret
chamberlains, of whom four are always on
duty ; the master of alms, the master of
ceremonies, secretaries and pro-secretaries,
assessors, chiefs of various offices ; the emn-
ployes of the museum, of the galleries, of
the Astronomic Observatory, of the Vatican
library, and the Swiss Guard and Palace
Guard of Catholic noblemen. ‘The finances
of the Vatican are managed by a bureau
named the Papal chamber.
Millions of Pins.
The largest pin factory in the world is
that of Birmingham, England, where 87,-
000,000 pins are manufactured every work
day. All the other pin factories in Eng-
land together turn out about 19,000,000
pins every day. The daily output of pins
in France exceeds 20,000,000, and Germany
and the other countries of Europe manu-
facture about 10,000,000 more daily, so
that the total production of pins amounts
to the trifle of 86,000,000 every day in Eu-
rope alone. Now the question arises,
“What becomes of ‘all these pins?’ A
statistician has -taken pains to ascertain
that only a nominal part is broken, worn
out or spoiled by bending, but almost 99
per cent. are lost. Pins are considered too
trifling to pick up hy many.
Taking the population of Europe at 250,-
000,000, every third person must lose a
pin every day to use up the production of
pins of a day. The value of this loss would
be $5,000. Still it is a wonder what be-
comes of all the lost pins, and how it is
that we do not walk on pins by this time,
losing as many as we do.

{ will only be postponed, and the generation
the leader of the brotherhood revolt and
Crete and the Powers.
Crete, which is now attracting the atten-
tion of the world and is the centre around
which gather diplomatic and warlike inter-
ests, has not within the range of modern his-
tory been politically connected with Greece.
It was conquered by the Venitians in 1205,
and remained part of the dominion of the
Doges for over 450 years. It passed un-
der the yoke of the Turks in 1669, and |
with occasional revolts, has been retainéd |
in their possession ever since. The island
is 60 miles south of Cape Malea, in the pres-
ent Kingdom of Greece, and is 156 miles in
length, with a varying breadth of from seven
to thirty miles. The climate is remarka-
bly fine, and for nine months in the year
the air is unsurpassed, perhaps for purity,
salubrity and tonic effect. During July,
August and September the heat is great ;
but it is more or less tempered by the sea
breezes. The island produces wheat, cot-
ton, tobacco, olive oil, oranges and lemons,
grapes, silk and wool. The famous Malm-
sey wine was one of its products in the old
Venitian days, but Cretan wine at the pres-
ent day is of an inferior quality.
The population, although for ages the
island has been under Roman, Saracenic,
Venitian and Turkish control, is mainly of
Greek descent. It now consists upward of
200,000 Christians, and from 50,000 to
75,000 Mussulmen. The latter are how-
ever of the native stock, the Greek is their
mother tongue. The Cretans are a bold,
turbulent race, proverbially great liars,
and difficult to govern. Their ambition is
to be annexed to Greece ; for she is their
mother country, and the Greek Church the
object of their affections. It must be con-
fessed however that Turkish government
of their island for a long period has been
rather nominal than real. The Viceroy is
a Greek Christian, and apart from taxation
for local purposes there are no Turkish
taxes.
The present situation is necessarily a
very difficult one. The Kingdom of Greece
desires to extend its government over the
Greek race ; and the Greek race not only
in Crete but in Macedona look to Athens
for directions. Turkey, however is in pos-
session, and the instinct of self-preservation
compels her to maintain that possession, if
possible. She sees in the loss™of any part
of her European dominions the beginning
of the end. -Her security, temporary
though it may be, is the mutual jealously
of the European Powers. With the down-
fall of Turkey these powers would claim to
share in the partition of her provinces.
The claim, no doubt, whenever the hour
shall come for its assertion will be the sig-
nal for war. Russia will demand, we may
be sure, her full share of the imperial spoil.
It will be an eventful epoch when the par-
tition and allotment shall take place.
Peace with its corruption, may then,—and
from the present indications, that day is
not distant—be succeeded by war, with its
devastations and calamities as well as with
its heroisms and self-sacrifices. The pres-
ent troubles in the East may be supressed ;
that now exists may vet behold one of the
most memarable conflicts that the world
has known.
Smith Says He is Innocent.
Hugh Smith, the aged man recently arrest-
ed on a charge of murdering Melinda Sny-
ly maintains his innocence, and says he
has no fear of the outcome. Heagrees that
the girl's disappearance was mysterious.
One of his attorneys said: iy
‘The Commonwealth will be unable to
establish that a murder was committed.
The girl was simple-minded. Is it not the
most plausible thing in the world to be-
lieve that she wandered away ? It maybe
that she met her death in her wanderings :
but how the prisoner is to be connected
with her disappearance I cannot conceive.’’

**You vas ’fraid,’’ replied his frou. With-
out more ado he procured the clothesline,
went into the parlor, drove a big spike
over the door and made preparations to
frighten his wife. Instead of putting the
rope around his neck he tied it about his
his neck. With a loud yell he jumped
from a chair, having a strong grasp, as he
thought, on the rope. Unfortunately, he
let go, and in a moment was swinging
head downward, with both hands on the
floor. His wife heard his struggles, and
entering the parlor, spied the old fellow in
a position she had been wishing for for
years. After thrashing him with the broom
handle for some time she took her seat in
the kitchen and began knitting. The old
man yelled lustily, which finally brought
in the neighbors, who released hin.

A Rich Valley.
Extending Over One Hundred Miles North and
South by Eighty Miles East and West.
The valley of the Big Sioux river extending
from Sioux City and the Missouri river on the
south over one hundred miles north and about
eighty miles east and west, includes within its
tributaries a large portion of southwestern Minne-
sota and northwestern Iowa. Within these limits
are more than 7,108,000 acres of land, more ara-
ble land than is contained within the states of
Massachusetts, Delaware, and New Jersey com-
bined. For diversified farming it has no superior
on the continent. In fertility and richness of soil it
even excels the famous valley of the Red {river of
the north.
The soil is a deep black loam, with enough
sand to render it warm and quick, underlaid by a
fertile porous subsoil, possessing all the qualities
necessary (as years of experience has demon-
strated) for all kinds of farming, especially corn
and kindred cereals. The grasses are rich and
abundant, the celebrated blue joint prevailing.
The valley is already noted as a favorable locality
for fine stock raising, and a great deal of the
wealth of the industrious farmers has been de-
rived from corn, hogs and cattle. It is well water-
ed in every portion both from springs and small
streams, and good water is always obtained at a
depth of from 20 to 50 feet.
Eight to ten years ago in northwestern Iowa
and southwestern Minnesoia lands sold at $5 to
$10 per acre. To-day the same lands are worth
$25 to $40 per acre, and cannot he bought for less,
according to improvements. The boundary lines
of the states do not change the productiveness of
the soil. The soil on the South Dakota side is
just as good as that of the states which it ad-
joins.

(GRAVE COMPLICATIONS.
OFTEN ARISE = FROM LITTLE
THINGS—MR. JAMES ROBERTS
.A SCRANTON, CITIZEN, HAS
AN EXPERIENCE.
Little things are constantly occurring
that we do not attach much importance to
at the time. They don’t seem to amount
to much, and perhaps only annoy us a lit-
tle while. We unfortunately cannot sec
what effect they are to have in the future.
Mr. James Roberts, a eitizen of Scranton,
residing at 1605 Lafayette street, told our
representative something of his experien-
ces that clearly demonstrates what a little
thing may grow to if it is overlooked. It
seems Mr. Roberts caught a severe cold
about three years ago, and at the time
chills followed, and he had severe sweat-
ing attacks ; which were often so bad he
found it necessaay to change his clothes
The complaint grew worse and bladder
difficulties set in. A soreness and pain
existed in the lower portion of the abdo-
men. Urinary troubles followed, the urine
was dark colored, depositing sediment.
The kidneys were not performing their
proper functions, and this was at root a
kidney disorder. It was a difficult matter
to even rice from a chair to a straight po-
sition without causing pain, and for a
great portion of the time he was rendered
incapable to work. Then he noticed the
words of praise sounded for Doan's Kid-
ney Pills, and getting a box at Matthews
Bros., drug store he begen taking them
With the second day of their use he felt a
change for the better, and now he gets
around and is working with comparative
ease and comfort. Most of the bad symp-
toms have entirely left, and they are
all rapidly disappearing. Mr. Roberts is
still taking Doan’s Kidney Pills. Ile says
that they are curing him, and that the
greatest remedy of its kind is Doan’s Kid-
ney Pills.
No.remedy has ever been xo successful
with both 01 and young in righting the
kidney’s action when deranged, and no
medicine ever compounded has received
such words of praise as Doan’s Kidney
Pills. 'Tis easy to prove our statements.

bors of yours, whom you cannot doubt, no
matter how sceptical yéu may be.

‘I attended a mountain wedding in Mec-

| post-office inspector. ‘‘Everything went
along smoothly at first. The cabin was
brilliantly lighted with candles and one of
the best fiddlers in the county was present
to furnish the music for the dance to follow
the wedding ceremony. Nothing occurred
to mar the proceedings until the minister
came to the point where he invited any one
who had anything to say why the couple
should not entérthe bonds of matrimony
to speak or thereafter hold his peace, when
a rough mountaineer arose and said :
*‘ ‘Anything ter say, parson. Waal, I

order. A ring was soon squared in
centre of the room and the men went at it.
In about ten minutes the groom announced
that he bad enough, and the victor, taking
the arm of the blushing bride, deliberately
changed the groom’s name in the marriage
license to his own, while the vanquished
lover made his escape. Everybody ap-
peared to be satisfied and the marriage
took place as though nothing had occurred
to mar the solemnity of the occasion.
Tour to California via Pennsylvania
Railroad.
In Southern California is found the real-
ization of a dream of the ancients. Here
are the ‘Golden Apples of the Hesper-
ides,” ripening beneath a sky more beau-
tiful than that of Rome, and in a climate
more perfect than that of Athens. Never
in the wildest flights of his imagination
did either Homer or Hesiod ever conceive
of a garden richer in verdant beauty, more
productive of luscious fruit, or set amid
more picturesque and lovely surroundings.
