MSflU Wy TrPPr ww THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1890i t Ll Old World Cilies Pleasingly scribed and Compared With Towns in America, De- SOMETHLNG TO SEE KVEEYWHERE. Rev. George IIodjes Points Out Hott the Hotels of Enropo Surpass Those of tha United States. A FAUTI OP PITISBOUGEES ABUOAD Wise EcitTicr Was Kot Calculated to Impress Foreigners FaTcially. rWTUTTEX FOE THB DIsrATCn.3 After all, there are a Jew matters in which theOld World has the advantage overlhe new, or else there would be no reason for all this Ions journey. One does not set the sepa ration of 3,000 miles of water between hira and his home for nothing. Something, of course, is undoubtedly askew in the judg ment of the American traveler who can see Europe and not grow every day more thank lul that he lives in America; and that patriotic congratulation ought to be am phasizol in the case of one who has the felicity to live in Pittsburg. And it is. And yet that legendary Parisian is not al together to be commended who, being per suaded to visit Florence, returned after a hasty glance, confirmed in his opinion that for one who had the advantage of residing m Paris it was waste time to look outside her gates. There are some good things out side of Pari"; perhaps enough to balance the had things unich are inside of Paris. And even Pittsburg is not the world. There is a good deal of countrv on this planet which is not drained by the Allegheny and the Monocgahela rivers. Some things are better over here. There is a wealth oJ art here, for instance, which as yet we can only envy. By and by when Mr; Carnegie's fine plans are" realized and we have onr great gallery, with its annual income of good pictures we, too, can boast ourselves. There is no reason why Pitts burg should not be an American Munich one of these days. Kobody passes Munich by in making the grand tour; but the glory o. the town is jut in its great art galleries. And these are modern constructions and collections, made possible by princely gifts if money. Tor even pictures can be bought with money. THE BEAUTIES Or 5IUNICIT. JIunich is a very handsome city. The streets are wide, and the buildings set with their bjeks against the sidewalks are belid and stately. And if you watch in the right place, you may even have the supreme satistaction of seeing a real live king. But nobody would stop in Munich if it were not for the attraction of its pictures and statues. The Glyptothek and the old and the new Pinakothek make JIunich famous. The hotels are better over here. The pilgrim gets to be a connoisseur in the matter of hotels. "Table d'hote," which is prac ticallv unknown with us, is a universal and beneficent institution on this side. Bed rooms aie made homelike by an entire ab sence of the conventional in the furniture. You know before you open the door of your room in an American hotel just what you will find there. You can almost predict the figure of the carpet. The furniture looks cs if it were made by machinery. But a con tinental hotel is iike a great private man sion. The hotel rsnect is hidden. There is no "office." That is unknown outside of Pjris. The halls have a domestic and in vitinsr look. The rooms are uleasaut. ouiet clumbers, set out with cheerv colors, and ... i.i, !,.... i ., j trace fill china and pictures. Yon have a home ieeling. "And the attention which you get gives you the sensation of being a marquis or a lord duke, without any of the discom forts of those un-American conditions. The hotel clerk, who overawes the guest at the American hotel, is absent. Tne proprietor meets you at the door with a prolonnd bow. Beside him is that indispensable adjunct of the continental hotel, the portier, who acts as interpreter in case ton are nnacquaintcd with the language of the country. The waiters at the table are invariably bright, courteous and good looking YOUXG MEN IX DKF.SS COATS who await vour order as if you were Haroun al Jtaschid himself. "While the head waiter is a paternal looking, disnified functionary, whom you might readily mistake for the Archbishop of Canterbury, I have seen but tno noblemen in these lands of titles. One was a Neapolitan prince at the Hotel Na tional at Lucerne. They had a comnauv of Nepolit.in singers to perlorm be ore His Excellency. They sang most atrociously, their voices being ever louder than their dresses, and the Prince, who clapped his bands in a feeble and perlunctory way alter each song, was looking very bored. The other notable was the Marquis of Eipon, who owns the magnificent estate o' Stndley ltoyal, upon which stands the majestic ruin ol Fountain Ah! cy the finest and most beauti'ul monastic ruin in the world. Ho and the rood Marchioness were at the abbey one r.iiny alternoon when I had the good fortune to be there also. There was a little picnic going on a school picnic of poor children with their teachers. They had gathered in from the rain under the shelter of the old dormitory crypt where the old monks used to walk. And the Marqnis bad a fiddler to play for the little ones to dance. It was a singularly graceful and at trjctivc scene. The small children did net appear to be in any great ave of the noble Marquis. And the Marquis, who was drefted in a tweed suit, witn Knickerbockers and brown stockings, seemed a plain, pleas ant and indeed jovial man. He was not half so digmfi d as the waiters at the Hotel de 1'Europe at Innsbruck. Anotner advantage which these old lards have over ours isin the interest which attaches to the cities and in the picturesqueness of the cities themselves. "Wherever you go there is something to see. And every town is different irom every other town". The American town consists of some streets, of Mores (which they call "shops" over here) and a good many monotonous streets ot dwelling houses, and a number of manu factories, and perhaps some little natural beauty of situation. But THE EUROPEAN TOYTN possesses what Matthew Arnold called dis tinction. It has a long history. It pro vokes the imagination. Its shop-windows show wares which you have never seen before. Its streets are picturesquely twisted, and its houses are of an architecture pe culiarly their own. Every railway station is the open door into a surprise. Traveling in Europe mav have its fatigues and its dis comforts, but it is never monotonous. "What a diflerence, for example, between the two Swiss towns of Interlaktn and Berne! Thev lie but a few miles apart, and yet they are as unlike as poetry and prose, as Carlyle and Tennyson. Berne is the queerest old town that one could wish to see. The first thing which you notice is the fountains. There is a fountain in Berne on almost every street. On one lountain is a knight in armor; on another are the arms of Switzerland; on another a big stone bear. The most remarkable lountain has upon it the statue of the ogre who eats small children. The ogre is reprc edited in the act of merrily devouring one or two plump infants. He "has a bag bv his side, out ot which peep the heads of" sev eral other unhappy boys and girls saved up for supper. Men and horses drink in a friendlv way together at the fonntains, and, when I sjw the gre, half a dozen uoraen were busily occupied with their lamily washing, usinir the fountain for a common washtub. All the fountains are white with soap-suds on washing-days. Berne has one of the queerest of all clocks. Father Time sits beside the gre.it dial hold ing bis scepter. "When the hour arrives, a GENEVA 10 BER little clown above him pulls a bell, out comes a brave rooster and crows a Insty crow, and a procession of bears marches around the figure of Time, who moves his sicptcr np and down as the clock sounds tbo hour. There is always a little crowd to waich the clocfc strike. The streets ot Berne are full of besrs of carved and painted bears, on the signs and in the windows. For the bear is to Berne what the eagle is to the TJnitea States of America, and much more. One of the sights of Berne is THE BEAR GAKDEif. You go along the arcaded streets, where the sidewalk all along is nnder the project ing second stories of the great houses, so that you can always be in the shade in that hot town, and across a bridce yon come to the pit where the bears are kept at the expense of the citizens. There are a dozen brown bears here, big and little, in a round pit paved with flat stones, and having a stone barrier around the top, over which there are always people leaning and watching the antics of the animals. Nurses come to bring the children, and fine young soldiers in red coats come to chat with the nurses, and boys and girls make daily visits to old 15ruin,and everybody who passes by stops to have a look. Down in the pit the bears are climb ing up branched poles and taking cluufsy baths, and playing awkward and funny games of tag, and around the barrier people are pointing out to one another what is going on below and making delighted comments in half a dozen languages. This has gone on for years and years. Almost everything in Berne has gone on for years and years. "Women were doing their washing at these old fountains when Colutnbns was trying to persuade people ttiat the Atlantic Ocean had two sides to it. In Berne, as in Eng lish Chester and German Nuremberg, you get back into the Middle Ages. And yet an electric street railway runs between these old arcaded bouses. And 1 notice that the cars make less noise than some which run from Pittsburg into Allegheny, and do not tip up and down at an uneasy balance as some cars do in quite modern citie3. Part ot the journey between Berne and Geneva is made over a lake whose water is blue even under a cray sky. The sky was black the day we made the trip, and the wind blew, and the rain fell heavily, and yet Lake Geneva or Lake Leman, if one wishes to be accurate was a lake of blue water. There is a blue m the water itself which borrows no color from the sky. There was a considerable party of the personally conducted on board the steamer, all from America, and SOME FEOM PITTSBURG. I suspect that the Pittsburg division were disposed to be a little ashamed -of some of the party, some young men and maidens wtio were "carrying on" in a fashion which one hopes is peculiar to America. At least we saw nothing like it among the well-behaved travelers ot other lands. There are times when one is glad that English is not as yet the universal language. If it were, the good Germans and French on board the steamer could have understood the Ameri can pleasantry which passed back and lorth between these bold young people. I believe tfiey were discussing the relation between tunnels and hair pins. Geneva is the town of music boxes. In the hotel which is well named the Beau Kibage there must have been half a dozen immense one. They had one at Interlaken, which of course came from Geneva. It was twice as large as an upright piano, and had all the effect of a full brass band. There was even a big bass drum in it. At Geneva the sweet strains ot the music box sounded the signal tor table d'hote. Another music box or two played during dinner. and another escorted the retiring guests out of the dining room into the parlor. In the shop windows are scores ot different articles all inscribed "With music" You can get musical plates, and cups and saucers, and musical vases, and hair brashes, and work boxes, and musical clocks, and musical writing cases. You might furnish a house at Geneva in snch fashion that everything you touched would play a tune. The most interesting thing about Geneva is the tact that it was once the dwelling !"ace "' "rE a" ui"DCU "eaD wwuvin. e weui one ounuay auernoon to see the church where Jean Chauvin or John Calvin, as we choose to call him used to preach. There is a great iron fence aronnd the dark old church, and the gate was fastened with a good, stout padlock. STKAKGEES'SHUX OUT. The authorities evidently did not propose to have any strange people saying their prayers in that sanctuary at any other than the appointed times. We could have got in by calling up the sexton and paying him a franc, but we preferred looking on from the outside. The Itoman Catholics know what churches are for. Some Protestants b ave lost the secret. There is a Protestant church at Berne, which they call the "Cathedral." That used to be the right name for it They have a hideous great black font and com munion table where the old choir screen stood, and the chancel is a lumber room. The church was open on Friday evening for an organ recital! I sat in that dim church at Berne, among the dark shadows which the faint oil lamps, hung against the huge pillars, served chiefly to make visible, and thought ot many things, as the organ thundered and lightened overhead. Is it well to have the gates of churches padlocked? Must there be an absolute divorce between religion and beauty? Must grace go out when truth comes in? Q. jr.

Hood's Sarsaprilla is the natural enemy of all impurities in the blood. It expels all forms of poison and disease. Bead this: "I am a pioneer in this county, baring been 'here 30 years. Four years ago my little son Ellery became blood-poisoned by impure virus in vaccination. His arm swelled terribly, causing great agony: physicians said the arm must be amputated, and even then his recovery would be doubttnl. One day I read about a blood purifier, new to me, and was surprised to learn that it was prepared by C. I. Hood, with whom I used to go to school in Chelsea, Vt. I decided to have my boy try Hood's SarsAparilla, and was much gratified when it seemed to help him., He continued to crow better as w e gave him the Sarsaparllla, and having used 8 bottles is now entirely cured. As Hood's Sarsaparilla has accomplished such wonderful results I rec ommend it all I possibly can." J. M. Sleepeb, Upper Lake, Lake Co., Cal.
