will shower for all. In the afternoon

second floor rsschrd by temporsry stslrs
thronght corridors and balls partly wall-
ed sud dripping with moisture, but when
we came to retire about midnight we
found our bed slready occupied sud
the room filled with cots on which
were tired and disgusted visitors like
ourselves. A return to the office
was necessary, sud after a long
scorch by the obliglug clerk, we were
told 104 but just been vacated sud
we could occupy‘tbst. We wet-soon-
glutulstiog ourselves that we hstlstrttsk
but until the clerk, ttitli s soggeiuts‘
smile, informed us lhst we would find
the key in the doortoour room. He
gsvs us special charge to return it to the
office in the morning. A colored porter
(George, we called him), took our grips
sud started 05, with a broad grin on his
face, sud a cheery “This way, gemtnen.”
We went so guided and were soon in s
be" even less complete thus the one we
had just left. 0n the unfinished door

peared “104." The entrance to the room
was partly obscured by some bagging
stretched across it, held Ibout two feet
from the top with tackssud kept por-
pendicular by apieccof small cord wood
tiedon its bottom. George poked the
bottom of the begging colds and beds us
enter. The room hsd been brown-coated
Ind about half white-mend sud was in
a most decidedly moist condition. It
was partitioned from adjoining rooms
by the some msterisl sud in the scum
tunnner as the doorway. As there wss
no help for it we were obliged to remain
there, but when we laid ourselves out on
that dstup bedding, the sheets of which
felt as though they had just been taken
out of the rinsewater, we were anything
but comfortsble, sud "George," who
soon sfter peeved through the hall, was
sbjured to bring us some generous doses
of Kentucky’s favorite medicine, which,
though it did not prevent our taking
colds, undoubtedly ssved our lives.

it was decided to sleep there no more.
But how to better ourselves was u very
serious problem. In looking over the
various documents pieced at our dlspossl
for obtaining Mtddlesborough informs-

that there were two hotels at Cumber-
land (hp—tbs “Cumberlsud Gap House,"
kept by Air. Vesl, and the "Ovsrtou

AN ANONALOUS CITY.
“What do you think of Middlesbor-

our party has been reputedly asked.
This is a question tbst cannot be
answered in s word, nor can Middles-
borougb be fully understood without I
visit, and not upon such s short visit as
ours. Middlesborough is en securely—s
city in which the usual order of develop-
ment is reversed. It is being established
by English'en sud English money. It
hes so natursl wealth cool sud iron its
sbuudsncc. In Msy, 1889, the population
of Mtddlesborougb wss fifty, in August,
1890, about 6,200. Including the pisnts
that are now completed sud those lhst
sre in course of construction, which, by
contract, are to be completed inside of
fifteen mouths. Middiesborough will
have a working population, composed of
skilled and unskilled labor, of over 7,000
men, which, sccording tosll acknowl-
edged rules, will give the city in sigh-
teen months ussrly 40,000 inhsbilsufs.
