Steamers, steamboats, and trains
continue to bring their quota to add
to the crowd. There are Americans,
shirt waisted, short skirted and kodak
armed; Englishwomen in motor hats,
tweed suits and flowing veils; girls in
the fluffiest of creations, and girls who
„appear to be travelling on the con-
tents of one suit- ease. There are
happy families who do their sight-see-

held up_ to view the monuments, or
crow at the many colored lights which
brighten the oulidings.

so crowded, and possibly never before
Was ther been such a demand for ac-
