The Norwallr guests at the Manhun-
sett Hotel, on the bluff at Shelter Island,
overlooking Gmenport harbor, which
was burned to the ground yesterday
morning. report some lively experiences.
T. 8. Vanderhoef and family, Miss
Fanny Leonard and Mrs. T._8 Mori-
son and family comprised the Norwalk
party- ‘
The fire broke out at 7:45 a. m.. in the
laundry. The inmates of the hotel were
immediately notified, but many of them
were still in bed, and escaped half
dressed. WindoWs were thrown open,
, and trucks, mattresses and per-
sonal belongings were thrown to the
grounds.
other portion of the building and had
more time to escape. They got all their
effects out.
Alden Salmons, of South Norwallr,
who was cruising on his steamer
"Laurel,” was at Greenport, where he
heard of the fire. .Knowing that the
Vunderhoef ,and Morison party was
staying at the hotel, he at once proceed-
ed acgoss thebay to the island and ofi‘er-
ed to bring the party home. Mr. Van-
derhocf accepted his kind offer, on be-
half of his family and Miss Leonard.
Their baggage was placed on be rd
the boat and they started for Norwalk.
A telegram was sent ahead, stating
that all the members of the party were
safe and that the ”Laurel” would prob-
ably leuch Gregory's Point 'last night,
where Mr. Vanderhoef’s team was to
me'etthe'm. The boat did not; make as
good time aswas expected. and put in
at Bridgeport. Here the party boarded
the Washington express, arriving ill
South Norwalk at 1 o‘clock' this morn-
ing. In response to another telegram.
they were met at'the depot by teams
and taken uptown.
Mrs. Morison and family decided to
remain at the hotel. They are quarter-
cd in the new annex, which is the only
part of the building that was saved.
The loss on the hotel is estimated at
$300,000, mostly covered by insurance.
The origin of the fire is unknown. but it
is supposed to have been caused by an
overheated stove in the laundry.
Many of the boarders—about five
hundred in all—lost valnuble jewelry,
having been unable to reach their rooms
after running out on the first alarm.
The Manhansett House had accommo-
dations for 000 guests. It had a front-
age of over 700 feet and comprised three
large buildings connected with one an-
other by bridges.
thn the fire broke out the Norwalk-
ers had not got up. When they were
amused. the ladies were badly frighten-
ed. It was an experience they will re-
member for some time. The Vander-
host family and Miss Leonard oxpecldd

Later in the day, while in his own

The fracas Caused considerable excite-

Charlotte Smith's Charges of Immoraliiy—Sow-
ing the Seed of Future Suffering—The Curv-
ed Bull, the Contracted Chest, and
the Strained Courtenanee.
To the Editor of The Sentinel: Poor
Charlotte Smith! If her charges of im—
morality have not already been success-
fully refuted by those who have taken
up her challenge, no effort of mine can
ranted attack upon the ‘ chasity and
modesty of wheelwonlen everywhere
that it ought not to pass without comment
when we remember how large is the
number of our own fair cyclists who are
included in her onslaught.
What is applicable to the wheelwom-
on of one city must naturally apply to
all, unless that one stands peculiarly
alone in its representation of vice as re-
lated to the wheel, according to Miss
Smith, president, etc.
In my opinion, if a young woman is
inclinedtobe immoral she will be im-
moral of! her wheel as well as on it.
The wheel is simply an incident in her
career. Do we condemn the well ap—
pointed carriage because the woman of
vice who'owns it uses it-as a means of
conveyance?
Miss Smith‘s charges have just
enough truth in them to give spice to
her argument. The strongest point is
in her closing words which touch, inci-
dentally only.upon the physical aspect of
the question. Had she given as much
time and ’attention to that part of it as
she haste assailing the characters of
wheelwonlcn in general, she would have
won cal-respect and led s to think of
horns a woman of broa sympathies,
and blessed with all until sanding of
human nature, young humm‘l‘naturo es-
pecially, which, in the majority of
cases, needs but a timely hint in the
right direction to insure it against such
evils as are so strongly deprecated, and
still more harshly condemned by’hcr.
.Sensiblo people who regard the matter
ill its proper light certainly see much to
censure in the bicycle practice, not, how-
ever, so much on account of the idea of
its pernicious effect upon the moral. as
upon the physical condition. The pby.
sical feature is one that cannot be too
persistently dwelt upon in the interest
of those who (lVCI'iOUk the real pleas-urns
