THE 01.0 YORK 0F TODAY. ”

l‘resent Condition of the English Name-
sake of the American Metropolis.
There can be no doubt that one of the
most interesting towns of England in
the city of York. There will be found
distributed in a lavish manner what all
the wealth of America could not possi-

 

‘ bly purchase or create. Indeed the same

may be said of every other country, for
nowhere can we now reproduce the
marvelous architecture or the stained
glass of the twelfth and thirteenth cen-
turies, and no town is so rich in these
unequaled works of the past as the town
of York. That this is fully appreciated
by Americans is best set forth by the
fact that recently no less than 500
_Americans visited York in one single
day.

York minster is the king of English
cathedrals. Apart, howeyer, fr the
cathedral, York has a much great rnum-
her of churches as old and, in their way,
as remarkable as the cathedral. What,

however, seems to me most exceptional '

is not these ancient monuments, but
their surroundings. Throughout Europe,
in London, Paris and elsewhere, me-
diaaval cathedrals, town halls and other
buildings still subsist, but they are sur-
rounded by n framework of modern
houses and streets. At York, on the con-
trary, as at Frankfort, Nuremberg and
a. few other continental towns, the
streets as well as the churches recall the
middle ages.

York is just the opposite to Hull. The
latter town owes its very existence to
its commercial capabilities, while York
never was a commercial town. Hall is
a town which has absolutely nothing to
show, yet it has a population of more
than 200,000 inhabitants, and many of
its citizens are extremely wealthy. Hull
fought for the parliament against King
Charles, _and Hull was celebrated for its
cruelty toward the Catholics. York, on
the contrary, fought for the king against
the parliament, and, as Catholics were
not so cruelly used in the York prisons,
they were sent from York to Hull when
it was thought desirable tot-real; them.
more harshly. Many very excellent fam-
ilies have selected to reside in York, but
there are very few large fortunes. York
is a town of poor gentlemen; Hull is a
town of wealthy vulgarians. York has
religiously sought to preserve what is
of historical and artistic value, Hull
has ruthlessly destioycd all that was of
no immediate business use. These two
towns, so close to each other, constitute
excellent object lessons, illustrating the
two great forces, the two great currents
of opinion, which for several centuries
have struggled against each other.»-
