They came from New England, from as far west as Kansas City and as far south as New Orleans. With Canadians' this annual pilgrim age has become a fixed Institution to which they look forward throughout all the long northern winter. Good Flday Is a legal as well as a religious holiday throughout the Dominion, and for two days and nights following that day long special trains crawled Into New Tork over the northern railway lines; bearing thousands of Canadians with their wives and fami lies, who came to New Tork for their annual outing and a first glimpse of spring along Broadway, while Canada is still locked fast In the grip of win-! From the 50,000,000 or more eggs which were rushed Into New Tork to meet the Easter demand, to the lilies and roses which are the Indispensable adjuncts of the day, this has been the dearest Easter In years. To be sure fresh hen's eggs1 were to be had at 23 cents a dozen, but the goose eggs which are largely used for fancy dec orations sold as high as- a dollar a dozen. But when It came to fresh flowers, that was a different matter. Easter lilies were very scarce owing to the delayed return of the steamer sent to Bermuda for a cargo of the flowers symbolic of the. close of Lent. As a result, the supply wax very short not more than 100,000 blossoms against 150,000 last year and prices ranged from 25 cents to 35 cents each. The new and popular "Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt" rose was so Hcarce that the price was anything that might be asked. As to tho flower more com mon for gifts and decorations, orchids' cost rrom two dollars apiece up to much higher prices for the liner vari eties. Amelcan Beauty ror-.es were from $2 to $3 for an ordinary bunch. At these prices' many of the big hotels and cafes on Broadway an ! Fifth Ave nue expended as high as $4,000 or $5,000 for carnations, rosea and. other flowers for decorations. Under certain conditions, howev elevators accomplish this nd; under others, where travel Is heavy during rush hours, the moving stalrwuy, now installed at a few elevated stations, saves minutes and power In the most efficient way. Much Interest, too, cen ters In the "ramp" which Is to give access from the street to the McAdoo tunnels'. The ramp Is simply a spiral Inclined plane, and surh being (he cuse us reason tor auoption is not easy to see: It is the oldest means of vertical known, having been used In Assyria before stairs were Invented. The chief criticism that has been made concerning It lies In the fact that It will take four times as long to reach the street level by Its use as by ordl nary stairs, without decreasing the labor, as would moving stairways. Conservative estimates have It thnt New York's dally aggregate of vertic al travel Incident to tho use of stairs alone totals 20,000 miles, consumes nearly five years of time and Involves' power. All this is the total for but a single day, In a year the city's resi dents spend 1750 years' In getlng up and down that Is, ln vertical travel. At a minimum at least 5,000,000 stair trips of a single flight each are made dally; for not only is this means' of vertical travel necessary In homes, stores and the older office buildings, butialsio Horl reaching thje subway; or ol vated lines. In a word, New York Is face to face with the necessity for saving her citizens the time and ener ter. From all parts of the north they gy now expended for vertical travel. James Bryce, tho new British Am bassador, made a bold and Mattering bid for the high regard of Oolhamltes at bis very first public appearance In their city, when, In an address before the Chamber of Commerce a few years ago, he predicted thnt within thirty or forty years New York will become "l he largest aggregation of population upon the earth, "just as' It Is now the greatest gateway for commerce, But Mr. Bryce spoke conservatively as be comes an Englishman. New York herself expects to reach that partieu Inr spot In tho llmo light within the next dozen years', when her population, If the present rate of Increase Is main lained, will he somthlng like eight mil lions. According to the United States Census Bulletin which has Just arrived from Washington, the population of tho metropolis In 1906 was 4,113,043. But even Uncle Sam did not tako cog nizance of all the elements of our greatness. There are a few other things ln which the metropolis makes them a funded debt tit $474, 653, 205.12 which Is' more than $115 per capita of population. Us budget of expenses for the past year was more than "ne-thlrd that of tho Notional Government $379,114,141,62, to be exact, while the gross receipts were $370,527,718, of which It spent all but $13,273,009.46.

The army of spenders are out for a good time and they get It to tune of $1,000,000 for the ten days they are here. Nothing Is too good for the Canadians'. Something like 10.000 of them have spent the holidays at the very best hotels In Dmgacre square and along Broadway and Fifth Avenue. CASTOR I A Por Infants and Children.
