NEW YORK BETTER TO-DAY THANIN “GOOD OLD DAYS,” ~DEGLARE WISE “OLD TIMERS: ——— Dr. Stephen Smith of the Six Thousand Troglodytes or Cellar Dwellers, Who Lived on Grand Street, and the Droves of Cattle That Gave Wild West Shows in the Streets.

DR. SMITH TELLS OF CiTy’s OR BARUCH’S TRYING TIME AS) 6000 TROGLODYTES. “The absence of plumbing, to- gether with the factories for boil- ing bones and rendering fat on both river fronts, filed the city with the odors, particularly at night. “Large droves of cattle landed on | both river fronts and driven across the city to the butéher shops, where they were slaughtered, crowded the streets daily and terrorized pedes- trians, especially children, who fre- | quently were 1 by the long- horned steers. These escaped their drivers and had to be recaptured with lassoes, Cows were pastured in Bryant Park in those days. ‘At least six thousand people whom | 1 have called ‘troglodytes’ tived below ground—sometimes two or three stories below—on the east side, par- Vieularly on Grand at. ‘The rule was one family to a room in the tenements, and each family usually took boarders. The cellar dwellers deeply resented it when they were vjected from their homes in an effort made by the medical authorities to clean up the city in 1866. here wire no theatres, public li- eums or other places ent—except the big build- ing at the Battery where Jenny Lind sing.

In his long, useful life he has done much to achieve this result HENRY HOLT DESCRIBES THE EVOLUTION OF NEW YORK. Another noted young-old New York- er who appeared on the Town Hall platform is Henry Holt. At @ghty one his hat is still in the ring as pub- lisher and as editor of the Unpartisan Review, whose pages have been adorned, mately, by his “Confessions of |My ‘father and brothers had a girl's jachool on Houston Street, which was Like Dr. Smith, he aloo approves of ‘then the centre of the residential dis- the short skirt, In fact, he declares trict Mwugniosly that Ae the greatest aie auuijac Aoboal in Unien Squarn and an Octogenarian.” ™~ most disgusting and unheulthful |Street, “was that my sweeth jin Brooklyn. That may not seem s¢ jthat b. tn facilitating transit since the days when the Sixth Avenue street cars were lighted with kerosene lamps. “When I came to New York court ing my wife, between 1857 and 1862," Mr. Holt recollected, at his desk at No. 19 West 44th Street, “I stopped at the Metropolitan Hotel on Broad- way, between Prince and Houston Streets, and I paid $2.50 per day for room and meals, I'm not sure that charge doesn't represent the greatest contrast between the New York of those days and of to-day. “Another revolution in my time has been the coming of the apartment | house. When I was married, in '¢i, I could do one of four things—take a whole house, which I couldn't afford, live in a tenement, go into the ccun- try, og live with the bride's paronts— @ thing no young couple should do. “The first apartment house, opened in "68, as I recollect it, was the Stuy- vesant flats on East 18th Street. Next came the Knickerbocker at Fifth Ave- nue and Sist Street. Now the young couple can find themselves an «part- ment nest in the most varied locations and at @ price proportionate to the young man’s tncome—which is a fine thing. ‘ “Dinners in the sixties and spven- ties were a matter of sixteen courses and at least seven glasses, To-day I go to dinner where there is not one glass. “Yet there was little or no drunken- ness among the men with whom I as- sociated. N. Y. WOMEN HAVE IMPROVED, SAYS MR. HOLT. “Women have changed a good deal in fifty years. All the women smoke now, Thirty years ago I said I wouldn't have a woman in my office; now there are more women than men. Women are not so gentle, it seems to me, and are less domestic; on the other hand, they aro better educated and better able to take care of them- selves. “When I first saw Central Park it consisted mainly of barren rocks chiefly inhabited by goats, whose owners lived in an occasional shanty here and there. As late as '65, when it had got into some sort of ‘shape, | people paid verv little attention to it.| 1 remember vividly that when my wife and I cut church and went np there of a Sunday merning, we were regarded as lost souls; and even peo- ple who went there in the afternoon jooked upon it as having all the lux- ury whose absence the Frenchwomaa | regretted in ice cream—namely, that | it was a sin. “The lots along Fifth Avenue, tac- | ing the Park, I first heard quoted about 1°70, at $25,000 apiece, at a same time the lots on the lower part of Park Avenue, that is to say, below 42d Street, were quoted at about $10,- 000 apiece.
