Beaiififiil UieuUs Of Qiiebec Harbor Some Scenes That Seem Like Pages Out of Old Romances. NOTABLE PUBLIC BUILDINGS The Chateau Frontenao Is an Excellent Ilotol, but It Look More Like en Iuv : posing Sixteenth Century Castle. Other Interesting Structures. Special Correspondence of The Tribune. Quebec, Dec. 8. Next to the fortifi cations the publlo buildings of Quebec interest the. visitor; though not nu merous, nor any of them striking in architectural beauty, they are all unique in design and many are costly and im posing structures. The most prominent among them are the Chateau Fron tenao, the new parliament building. postofflce and court house. All are worthy of special mention. The Chateau Frohtenac, alluded to In a former letter, stands on a historic spot of more than ordinary interest to the tourist the site of old Chateau St. Louis the vice-regal resldenoe of the governor general of Canada, for the last 200 years. The site and the hotel are worthy of each other, being located within "the historic walls of the only walled city of America." It is a massive, shapely edifice, occupying a command ing position on the eastern extremity of Dufferln terrace. It is seven stories high, Are proof, and cost nearly one million dollars. It Is built of Scotch brick and gray stone In the sixteenth century Btyle of architecture. Over the main entrance Is a stone found In the walls of the old chateau, when that was being torn down, and bears the date of 1647. Like an Ancient Castle. The stone and brick from which it is built is found in the immediate vicin ity of Quebec. The structure is skill fully 'planned and peculiarly adapted to its location. It has numerous curves, upolas, turrets and towers. Even its gray stone and dull brick harmonize well . with the sober, quaint architec ture of the old fortress city. The in terior is luxurious, while the 'exterior blends with Its surroundings most beau tlfully. Of Its 175 rooms, nearly all face the magnificent stretch of river, sky and far-off mountains. Faith Fenton, describing it, says: 'The rooms are bow-shaped, cresent shaped, circular, acute-angled, obtuse angled, trlugonal, hexagonal, every thing except right-angle. It might be called a horse-shoe hotel, for thus it is shaped, having as many interior curves and corners as outer ones. The interior is so constructed that all the oflices, service rooms, even the main entrance hall, with Its pillared gateway, look out upon the inner curve and court, leaving every bit of the outer circle that faces the magnificent views, to be devoted to the parlors and guest rooms." It is ele gantly and artistically furnished; the furniture is chiefly oak, of Canadian and English design, the antique pre vailing. Handsome ' brass bedsteads, oak furniture and cozy upholstery are found in each room. It Is carpeted throughout with Axmlnster and Wil ton, mainly in crimsons and moss greens. The rooms are large and well lighted, and all contain hot and cold water, and the majority bath conven iences. We were shown through the entire structure, even to the fourth, fifth and sixth stories, and to our sur prise, found them as roomy and as desirable as the lower flights; In fact, the higher one climbs the wider and grander the panorama of river, moun tain and sky that unfolds to the view, It is truly the most unique, commo dious "and convenient hotel we have ever seen, and unlike anything found in the United States. . It was named after one of Quebec's most Illustrious French governors, Count de Frontenac, whose chateau occupied the site. In 1690, on which this hotel now; stands. 1 should mention that its rates are $3.50 to $5 per day, and under the efficient management of Frank H. Stanton, the Frontenac In all respects excellence of cuisine, table furnishings and polite at tention to the tourist Is equal to the palatial hotels ol Boston, New York, Philadelphia and San Francisco, should add that In close proximity to the terrace are three other unpretetv tlous, but good ' hotels, with cheaper rates the St. Louts, Florence and Rus sell House. The new Florence is of modern structure. The Governor's Garden. This Is a public park, located a little in rear of the Chateau Frontenac, and containing about three acres. It Is a pleasant retreat and adorned by one of Quebec's most Interesting memorials a ' double-faced column, - decked with military trophies, slxty-flve feet high, erected in 1827 and 1828 to the memory of the two illustrious , English and French generals, Wolfe and Montcalm, In Joint honor. For four generations have vanquisher and vanquished laid silent In the grave, but their names are kept alive and linked together in history. Mounted In this park are seV' eral large smooth-bore cannon and in the lower garden is a battery which commands the harbor. Terrace Promenade and Illuminations, A stroll on' the Terrace- by night watching the lights spring out in Lower Town and Point Levis is enjoy able In the extreme. The Terrace is the favorite promenade of the citizens and tourists, and presents an attractive scene In the late afternoon or on pleas ant Sundays. The vlewj from the Frontenao balcony on a summer even ing when the terrace Is' thronged with a thousand promenaders and when the city Is dotted with electrlo lights, and Point Levis Is sprinkled with Its bright lights and the Lower Town has llluml nated its narrow streets and Its long dormer windows, and the lively mur mur of business Is heard and the eye can discern the lights and shadows of the outgoing and incoming vessels and those lying in port, is one of mar velous animation and Bplendor. Es pecially attractive Is the view as seen from the opposite ahbre on approaching the city at night as was our expert' ence. . The electric lights which, encir cled the fortress, shining In the dis tance through the evening haze, make Quebec truly the most wonderful o cities "set on a hill which cannot be hid." The Citadel band, or those of the visiting war-vessels, play regularly In pleasant weather upon the terrace stand to. the delight of the guests of the Frontenac and citizens of both Up per and Lower Town, The band of the English man-of-war, Tourmaline com' posing thlty. peers Is playing "God posing thirty pieces Is playing "Qod randum, , The Quebee Postofflce. , The Postofflce, an imposing Btone building With its. old French quatrain and quaint figure, is 'an attraction to the curious visitor. It ocouplea the site of .the Grand Place of the early French Town, on which encamped the Huron tribe of Indians under shelter of the fortress. In its front wall is a figure of a dog, carved In the stone and glid ed, under which Is this unique inscrip tion: i: I am a dog, gnawing a bone;. ,. ' While I gnaw I take my re-. pose. The time will come, though not yet, . , When I will bite him who now bites me. This lampoon was aimed at the ln- tendant bigot by M. Phillbert. a mer chant who had suffered wrong from him, but was afterward avenged in the intendaoit's assassination by an offi cer of the garrison. The Publlo Gardens. We visited the Public gardens and Market place, and found them both In teresting. Market Square Is near the center of the Upper Town, on the site of the Jesuit college, which has re cently been torn down, and its place re mains drearily empty. A quaint sight awaits the visitor.. On one side Is the Basclllca. Near it, on ' the curb stones, are old peasant women, hover ing over baskets of maybe belated fruit and vegetables; also peddlers of house hold goods and utensils. On the upper side is a row of quaint stone houses, Inns and shops. Here are seen blue eyed old citizens and peasants sitting In their doorways smoking and curious ly gazing upon the shoppers and passers-by; while the open space Is filled with vehicles of every description load ed with produce of the Province. On the lower side are the modern buildings and fine stores of the Rue Fabrlque, and on the opposite Is the long row of caleche with the hardy little French horses munching their oats from a leather-headed bag, while their drivers wait for a stray American to wander In,, and for whom they make a wild, though good-natured rush, when he Is lost sight of amidst the uproar. Be it to their credit, they do not under-bid each other, and after a choice Is made, each "carter" returns to his place on the curb-stone, guying, the successful driver with Jokes until well out of sight. Chief among the figures passing through are the spiritual fathers of the city In the ecclesiastical dress. Here, too, la the red-coated English soldier and the neat, little, polite French policeman in blue uniform and flaring havelocks, besides the proud sailor from the man- of-war, and the walnut-faced habitant in his quaint attire. No such com bination can be found outside of Que- bee. John E. Richmond. TUNKHAMOCK. Dr. U. E. Dornsife Is home from Jef ferson college, Philadelphia, for the holiday vacation. Witnesses were called yesterday to testify Iri the case of S. M. Wlllams vs, Mrs. S. M. Williams and John Collins, but the matter was finally adjourned without anything being done. The ac tion brought is on account of alleged Improper relations, divorce, etc. Trouble has been brewing In the graded school at Lemon for some time through a misunderstanding between the principal teacher, Frank Vangor der, and various other people In the district. Including some of the dlrec tors. The climax was reached Thurs day night, when a special meeting of the- directors was called and a lively debate ensued, in which two or three Tunkhannock lawyers took part. It was finally, settled by the teacher re' signing his position. The board will meet Saturday to hire a teacher to fill the vacancy. Mrs. Jerry Murphy was arrested yes terday at the Instance of Mr. and Mrs. Al Harding on the charge of kidnap ping a child. . The child belonged to Mrs. Murphy, but being poor and some what unbalanced mentally, the poor- masters legally bound the child over to the Hardlngs. They being dissolute and Immoral in character, Mrs. Murphy took the child away. When brought before Esquire Drake she waived a hearing and gave bail In the sum of $200 for appearance at court. She still has custody of the child, and the courts will probably be called upon to decide whether the Hardlngs are proper peo pie to be entrusted with It. ' I. E. Wescott, of NlcholBon township was arrested by Deteatlve W. H. Rich mond and brought before Esquire Kutz yesterday morning, charged with com pllolty.in (he Waterman murder. By consent of the district attorney he was allowed to enter bail In the sum of $500, and was dscharged. . The Lehigh Valley is having a heavy westward traffic these days. Robert R. Little and Albert Miller were visitors to Scranton yesterday. Mrs. J. A. Blttser and Mrs. E. N Stone returned from Philadelphia yes terday. Among the Christmas Day weddings will be that of George Wilson, station agent for the Lehigh Valley at Wyalus- Ing, to Miss Cassle Robinson, of Forks- ton. Miss Eflle Reynolds, assistant at the prothonotary'a office, is quite an ex pert typewriter. Attorney F. F. Drake Is out again after an attack of the quinsy. Mr. and Mrs. N. W. Reynolds have re turned from their Forkston visit. George Grow, of Eaton township, was reported very low with typhoid fever yesterday morning, and his death was hourly expected. The trouble is be lieved to have been brought on by drinking water from an old well on the premises, his wife having only Just re covered from the same disease when he was stricken down. S. D. Streeter Is expected home from Cornell university today. A dispatch was received here Thurs day night stating that Morris Depue, of Lake Wlnola, was dead. Later an other came saying he was still alive, but very low. His father, Vine Depue, went over and found his condition very critical. The cause of the difficulty was not stated. Colonel E. 8. Handrlck Is home from Ohio. .. The county commissioners are holding under advisement the matter of re indexing the deed books at the recor der's office. The Indexing hitherto, ever since the county was formed, has been very crudely, and, in many In stances, Improperly done, and the con sequence Is that the books are almost worthless. To re-Index them properly is an intricate and laborious Job, and one that will be expensive. It should not be entrusted to green hands. Dr. E. H. Hill read an essay before the meeting of the Homeopathic Medi cal society at Wllkes-Barre Thursday on the cactus family, and presented each of the (members precnt with an ounce of the tincture of cactus pre pared by himself. He distills it from the blossoms of the nlght-bloomlng cereus." ' Mothers! Mothers !! Mothers ! 1 !
