WOMEN THREE DECKER HATS Short Sketches From Our Hew York Correspondent Fresh Fish at Sea a Hew Wonder Chancellor Day Breaks Ont Again. NEW YORK. Oct. 26. Twelve build fcea with an aggregate height eft more than three quarters of a rnik and having 290 stories will be New York's record in the skyscraper line when the construe turn now underway is finished. For a oneentration of lotty buildings, tins dozen, all grouped within a few steps of cne another in the downtown district, will surpass anything of the sort that all the rest of the world can put for ward, even though this charm of stone nd steel does not take into considera tion the skyscrapers uptown. The aver age height of each building is more than 2 stories and it would take less time to walk from one to any other than to iimb the stairs in the shortest, which inses a mere 21 stories into the air, or just half as far as its- tallest neighbor. The value of these 12 buildings is up ward of $25,000,000, and their floor area more than 3,000,000 square feet, or near Ty 90 acres, all of which rents on an average for something like $2 a foot. Fifteen, 20 or even 25,000 tons of steel is no uncommon amount to go into one of these monsters, which often extend 15 or 100 feet below the street level. In apite of the remarkable size of the group, However, the average rate of construc tion under favorable circumstances is about four stories a week. , rush home every few hours to make a change of headgear in keeping with the time of day. The new creation which is causing so much excitement is really a three-story hat; that is, it Is composed of three layers, one for morning wear on top, below it one for the afternoon, and at the bottom of all an evening hat At all times it is said it has the appearance of a single hat although of triple con struction and at its first exhibition here it was hailed by women enthusiasts as the greatest achievement since the build ing the pyramids. Its popularity receiv ed only a temporary setback irom toe query raised bv some unsympathetic masculine critic as to what the owner of a three-story hat could do with the top lavers when removed. Obviously she could not go home to take them off as it was invented to obviate the neces sity of returning to one's home, but its inventors had entirely overlooked this point. It was finally decided, however, that the sections could be sent "home by messenger bdy and so Jew York will not be surprise.! to see long processions pt uniformed youngsters passing along the avenues with installments of the new sectioned hat. The three-decker feminine hat has ar anted a fact which so far as women are oota-trncd is of more importance than war on politics. Mere men will have to eenttoue to get along with one hat, at a time, but thanks to the ingenious Bess of a New York milliner, from whose fertile brain the triple hat for "Both hands on your pocketbook," has become the attitude of the average citi zen toward Standard Oil, or the other great industrial enterprises that have recently been on the rack. But if John D. Rockefeller and his associates have no other supporters they still find de fenders among the ranks of the clergy. Following on the heels of public utter ance by Dr. McArthur and Dr. E. Ben jamin' Andrews in support ' of the methods of the men behind the big oil corporation, Chancellor Day of Syracuse University has returned to the fray. The Syracuse educator has discovered that we are livinz under a virtual monarchy in the United States and he sets forth .this, view 'in a scathing attack on Presi dent Roosevelt and his politics m the current number of Appleton's under the heading "The Baid on Prosperity." j ) While declining to become as excited as Dr. Day over the coming of monarchial rule, New Yorkers enjoy a good scrap, especially one in iwhich gentlemen of the cloth participate because it is pretty certain to be acrimonious, and it must be said that Chancellor Day handles his Wonders of transatlantic travel crowj on each other so fast nowdays that the average New , Yorker has hardly titoe to philosophize over one before some thing else turns up. The giant 700 loot Lusitania still attracts the attention of thousands, but interest is already turn ing. The very latest thing is an ocean liner in which live fish are kept for the tAhlo " That a vessel which nlies the broad Atlantic should attract attention in this manner smacks of the ridiculous, moving as she does in the very home of fishes, but nevertheless until the arrival of the Amerika this week. Atlantic liners have always carried their fish from port to port dead and stored away for the simple reason that at the present day rate of steaming no one could catch a fish, even if he were to try. On the Amerika however the novel scheme is just being introduced of having an aq uarium on board stocked with live trout from which the sated millionaire 11WV BVlCVlr BUI U9U bu.lf uiLrcc. v jaded palate with certainty that it will be served to him fresh. Taking fish to sea, Lhowever,' simple as it sounds is still too much like taking coals to Newcastle not to appeal to the average person. Afflicted with Sore Eyes for 33 Years.

New York not only uses more tele phones than any other city in the world but manufactures, more than all the rest of the country combined. This fact was brought out in connection with the an nouncement that the Western Electric Company which makes all the instru ments used by the various Bell companies at its .huge West street plant in, this city is to sell telephones to the general public. Something like 3,000,000 instru ments a year, or more than 5000 com plete telephones every day, is New York's contribution to the business of vocal communication to supply thede mandg of the Bell interests. The tele phone business, though now thirty years old, has had its great expansion in.fhe past ten years and 28,000 persons are employed in the making of various parts by this one company alone. Heretofore it has not been possible for an indivi dual or for a group of neighbors with a private telephone line to buy the in struments used by the' Bell system, but this is now to be changed, lhe big com HENRY SHERMAN, Manager Hacks, CarriagesBaggage Checked andTransferred Trucks , Wsgons Pianos juoveo, uoxea ana ouipywu. 43jCommereil Street' end Fur alt or train Phone nt TEA Good tea, close price."
