I N a previous article we have imag time to sleep, and a little more. Naturally,
ined our entrance to the city from
a completely rural neighborhood.
W e have gone only as far as the Con
servatory of the New York Botanical So
ciety and now will start downtown. Wc
will take the elevated railroad or as, for
brevity, it usually called, “the L." The
station is at the northern terminus of the
line. There is a level walk hy which we
approach from the park, but at all other
stations we must ascend by stairs, some
times to a considerable height. The road
is standard-gauge, double-tracked through
out and with a third track for part of
the way. It is carried along the streets
on iron pillars, set near the curb on
either side of the street. These lift the
structure to such a height that moving
vans, etc., can pass under without diffi
culty at the lowest places. Elsewhere, to
avoid steep grades, the height is much
greater.
We enter the station and buy a red
ticket for each member of the party.
They cost five cents each. These we drop
in a box guarded hy a solemn-looking in
dividual in blue coat and brass buttons,
known as the ‘’ticket chopper," and pass
out on the platform. We see two or three
persons attempt to pass and hear them
instructed to drop their tickets in the box.
If this were a provincial village some of
the bystanders would snicker at the green
ness of the stranger. Not so in New
York. In the village the stranger is a
rarity. In the great city he is there by
the thousands in fresh arrivals every* day.
T he New Y rker looks at the stranger
as does the hotel clerk and is not in the
least amused by his unfamiliarity with
new conditions.
A train comes up to the station, the
gates are flung open and the crowd of ar
rivals hurries off the platform. H urry is
the word. In New York everybody hur
ries. If they do not they get run over.
There are people from the outside who
object to the hurry of New York, but, as
usual, they miss the mark. There is
nothing “ feverish" about it. nothing of
the “mad rush for dollars,” which these
groaning moralists discover. T hat the
people of New York arc any “ madder”
in this particular rush than the people of
Kennebunk or Olympia is absurdly un
true. The whirl of speculation, which
takes up columns of newspapers, affects
but a minute fraction of the population
of the city. The vast m ajority are w ork
ing for wages, and the work and wages
are sim ilar to that in thousands of smaller
towns. The dollars, for the most part,
come in the same inconveniently small
amounts, in the same familiar small bills
and are passed out with the same prompti
tude to very similar-looking butchers, gro
cers, bakers and the rest. If stocks drop
heavily on the Exchange a small fraction
of the population wi*ll be excited. An
other small fraction will read the big
headlines, mention the .matter to a friend
as a means of carrying on a conversation,
with about as much excitement as they
remark the pleasant weather. The rest
of the population pass without interest,
emotion or remark to topics of whatever
sort may suit their varied tastes. Hum
bugs and fakers of the Lawson type have
ten times as many dupes outside of New
York as they have in it. and “W all Street"
is mentioned a hundred times, population
considered, in W hat Cheer or Skookum
Chuck to once in the city where it is
known as a narrow street, opposite T rin
ity ’Church and having *a great many
banks and brokerage offices. So much
for the “mad rush for dollars."
The real reason for the hurry in New
York is that the downtown district—
lower M anhattan—is many miles from the
homes of the m ultitude who daily do busi
ness there. A considerable time each day
is occupied in going to and lrotn busi
ness. When this is added to the hours
they are employed thev have left enough
this little more is a most precious asset
and they make the most of it. They
hurry to the train, they hurry from the
train in order to get to their place of
employment in time, to get the evening
dinner while it is hot. to prepare for an
evening away from home, to prenare for
expected guests or to enjoy as much as is
possible of the society of 'their families.
A pale-faced, middle-aged clerk is sprint
ing toward the ferry in order to get his
supper and take his daughter to a free
lecture on “Constantinople” -at the
neighborhood assembly hall. And tlu<
visiting citizen ot Blue E arth County
sees him and shudders at the “mad rush
for wealth,” which is destroying lives and
souls of the people of the metropolis.
W hen the great m ajority is hurrying
thus most people accommodate themselves
to the pace. A few fail to do so and
possibly are bumped by some of the h u r
rying passers-by. The slow-paced bumpee
hears the word “pardon” and sees the
person who jostled him disappearing some
paces ahead. H e is surprised^ or, if ill-
natured, indignant. But if he continues
even a short time in the city he learns
to move with the tide and, in time, if he
humps one of his leisurely going form er
townsmen, he will say “ Beg pardon!’ and
scoot past with the celerity he has just
witnessed.
We enter the train, which has on either
side a long row of seats facing the centre.
As we are starting from the terminus,
many seats are vacant as the train leaves.
Stations . re about six blocks apart and
are called, as we reach them, by the
guards, who occupy the car platform s and
who open and shut the gates. A crowd
on the station plaftorm surges forward as
we arrive. "Let ’em off first! Let ’em
o ff!" the guard shouts, and the crowd
obediently, hut impatiently, gives way as
the debarking passengers hurry from the
train. "Step lively, please!” is his next
command, disregarding the fact that there
may be present , Philadelphians, whose
feelings may be Tiurt. As a m atter of
fact, there has been an order that these
words may-not he used, but they are so to
the point, so classic in their simplicity,
that« on occasion they involuntarily come
forth, and the attem pt of the railroad
management to do away with one of the
established customs of the city was, of
course, doomed to failure.
A few stations, and we find that all the
seats are occupied. It seems that nearly
every passenger has a morning paper.
There are all the well-known dailies
printed in the English language and per
haps one or more in German, Italian or
Yiddish, the latter in Herbrcw charac
ters. Another station and there are more
passengers than seats. The men reach
up and, grasping with one hand a strap
which depends from a metallic rail, hold
up the inevitable newspaper with the
other and fall to reading with the un
concern born of long familiarity with ac
cepted conditions. At the next station
the crowd in the aisle increases and sev
eral women, bound upon shopping expe
ditions, arc among those left standing.
The sitting passengers sit tight and keep
on reading. O ur visiting friends from
Tompkins Corners jum p up in wild ex
citement and politely yield their seats.
Still there are women left standing and
our friends glare ferociously at the m as
culine sitters, hut their glare gets nf>
farther than the serried ranks of out
spread newspapers, from which the read
ers do not lift their eyes. 'Their guide,
a case-hardened New Yorker, cynically
keeps his seat and bids them watch de
velopments.
Another station is reached. A part of
the crowd gets up to depart. The women
who have been standing drop into the
vacant seats. The men who have been
standing keep on standing. Another crowd
TO WOMEN WHO DREMT m OTHERHOOEI comes
on. More men and women are
standing.
Another station is reached,
