Finest Hostelry in World When
Built, It Gives Way to New
Century's Progress.
NKW YORK, May 30. The old A*
tor Hoimk*. which *tand#» in the path
of h proptMied subway, was closed
yesterday and It is practically certain
ite doors will never be opened as a
hostelry again. In all probability the
building will be torn down and a
modern structure erected on its sit..
which Is one of the most valuable in
the city.
The property is owned Jointly by
Vincent Aator and William Waldorf
Aator. Vincent owning the southern
half vttrlle the northern half belongs
to hie cousin.
The Aator House was built by the
ftriglnnl John Jacob A at or. who had
hid little fur store around the corner
on V«u*ey Street. To build the hotel
he aoourVri the property from various
owners whose homes occupied the
•rite.
Opened in 1836.
The bullflihg was finished in 1826.
hod In May of that year the doors
of the finest hotel in America at
that time wore thrown open. It had
cost 1360,000 to build; an enormous
sum for those days. Although there
wasn’t a room with a private bath in
the house it wbs considered to be
the last word 1n elegance and luxury.
For 20 years after it* opening the
hotel continued to be the headquar
ters for notables who visited New
York. Foreign nobleman who came
here. prominent politicians and
artate#men of our own country and the
4orlfU elite all stopped at the Aator
House. Daniel Webster whs fre
quently registered at the hotel. John
c. Calhoun, Silas Wright. Franklin
Fierce. Martin Van Huron. James
Buchanan. Zachary Taylor. William
G. Seward, Stephen A. Douglas. Lew.
Is Cass, Jefferson Davis, Horatio Sey
mour and Henry Clay were all reg
istered at the hotel at one time or
another
Lincoln a Guest There.
President Lincoln stopped there on
his first visit to New York. The
monster meeting to arrange for the
reception of Charles Dickens on the
occasion of his visit to this country
was held here. Many public dinners
of note, chief among them the dinner
In honor of the Prince de Joinville,
in 1841. were held in the dining room
General Fremont and his family lived
there during the presidential cam
paign of 1866. and Admirals Farm-
gut and Porter were frequent guests
after the war
At the beginning of this month
when it became certain that the
old hotel would have to be closed, the
manager notified the employees that
they had better seek other jobs.
Many left the room in team. Sev
eral of the employees have been with
the Awtor House for 2ft years or more.
Invariably the waiters at the Aator
Hmiac have been Irishmen
A few will lament the passing of
the old landmark and soon It will be
only a memory, but a memory which
can never be separated from the his
tory of the city.

an addressing the graduates of Mrs.
Merrill's school at Oakwmere on
“Faith,” said it is impossible to do
anything of Importance without faith
in one’s self, faith in ones feilow-
men and faith in God.
I fear the plutocracy of wealth.

and I love the democracy of the
heart," said Mr. Bryan. "The only
thing I fear in education is that it
may lift, one up until he becomes
ashamed of those with whom he for
merly was attached. I would rather
the head were dull than the heart
cold."

THE PLAY
THIS WEEK
Worth While Bill of Forsyth.
The Forsyth has been crowded all
week because Maggie Cline is a draw
ing card and because the rest of
the bill is that sort of rare quality
that is entertaining. There is a lit
tle of everything on the bill. There
isn’t a thing that makes one tired.
Hits have been registered by Madden
and Fit spat rick; t’aesare Nesi and
Kirk and Forgarty. It is a bill really
worth while. Next week the headliner
will be Lillian Shaw.
‘‘St. Elmo” at the Atlanta.
"St. Elmo,” as presented by Miss
Billy Long and her associate players,
continues to please patrons of the
Atlanta Theater this week. Every
character is given splendid portrayal
and the production Is one of the best
of the summer stock season. There
will be a matinee to-morrow after
noon and final performance to-mor
row night.
“The District Leader" Draws.
"The District Leader” continues to
draw large audiences this week to
the Bijou and all records of the pop
ular theater will doubtless be broken
as the attendance is far in excess
of the previous week. This tabloid
minstrel comedy is one of the few
attractions that combine the pleasing
features of musical comedy and
comedy drama.

“The Scarlet Plague,’’ begins in

system beyond its time without
vitiating the blood and affecting
the nerves and muscles, it con

The results are colds, fevers,
piles, headaches and nervousness
with its accompanying indigestion
and sleeplessness. There is only
one thing to do. and that is to
remove the trouble; and when na

aid is necessary. You will find the
best of all outside aids a remedy
that many thousands are now us

Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
Many hundreds of letters are re
ceived by Dr. Caldwell telling of
the good results obtained and
among the enthusiastic letters is
one from Docia Wood, of Little
River Academy, North Carolina,
who suffered with constipation
and indigestion so badly that she
could not sleep well at night and
everything she ate distressed her.
She writes that after her mother
had given her Dr. Caldwell's Syr

thing.”

pills, salts and the various coarse
cathartics and purgatives, for
while these do but temporary

is to train the stomach and bowel
muscles to do their work naturally
again, and in a short time all
forms of medicine can be dis

without inconvenience at any
nearby drug store for fifty cents
and one dollar a bottle, the latter
size being regularly bought by
those who already know its value.
Results are always guaranteed or
money will be refunded.
If no member of your family
has ever used Syrup Pepsin and
you would like to make a person

the regular way of a druggist,

do—to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 417
