NEW YORK. June 5.—The ques—
tion “What things peculiar to New
Yorlc City most tease the curiosity
of the person who never has been
there. "" has been answered In thous-
ands of inquiries received from pros-
pective visitors to the Democra:ic
7 national convention.
The answer is: first. “‘3” Street
and the Stock Exchanges; second,
the “’oolworth and Metropolitan
skyscrapers; and third. Coney Is-
land. the order representing the re-
lative popularity.
Curiously. those who profess the
greatest interest in the Stock Ex-
changes alm‘ost imariably add. “and

metropolitan wonders, with the Sta-

Then. in the order named, come the

seum. the subway system and the
under-river tubes. Greenwich \‘ill-
age. Brooklyn Bridge. Ellis Island
and "The Little Church Around the
Corner." the Church or the Transfig~
uration.
It was noted by the convention
bureaus which are mailing answers
to all these queries that Chicago
people. for instance. were interested
above all in New York‘s subways;
that the Stock Exchanges were the
first things town and village bauk~
ers wanted to see: that parents who
will bring children here with them
invariably wanted to know “will the
zoo and the aquarium be open?"
and that inhabitants of moderate-
sized mid~VVestern cities were mm
curious about the reputed bohemin
nism of GrQenwich Village.

ed. has been found among a. group
or newly discovered Roma remains
at bolkstone, on the English hannel

evidently mirrornded the camp. Se-
veral burial urns and Roman glass

dition. _
