C. J. Osgood of Valley Falls, special 1 agent for the Burlington Insurance called on us last Thursday. Charley is a rattling good fellow and is one of the best Insurance men in the west. It always makes us feel good to have our old friends drop in on us, even if they do happen to be insurance men, we can stand it to be told what peril we are in without an insurance, for the sake of a warm grasp from the hand of a warm hearted friend like Osgood.

The Burlington have a tip top man in C. J. Osgood. They did a wise thing when they promoted him, May he live long (he is about six feet twelve inches) and prosper. No Yankees Need Apply.

Mr. Matthew Arnold is said to com-" plain bitterly of the prices of our American He probably never stopped at an English hotel, and does not know with what facility a London caravansary will pile up a list of charges amounting to five dollars or more a day for one-half the comforts and accommodations the same -monev would purchase in Boston, New York or Washington. The London hotels are often extortionate and generally dirty. There is not a first-class they call it--anywhere in Europe. The attendance is usually enough, but I defy any person to get away from a London hotel comfortably without feeing at least four persons.

I go on pointing out the failings and exasperations of English hotels, but the subject is not a particularly pleasant one. While I am on the subject I want to warn the uninitiated against an awkward experience that may come. to them. The best hotel in London is probably the new Grand hotel in Trafalgar square. It is very large and handsomely appointed.

It is a rule of the house to exclude all American travclers, unless they are known to be very rich or are introduced by some person of distinction. This business of getting introduced at a large hotel is one of the wrinkles confined exclusively to the English metropolis. Why is this, do you ask? I will tell you. A gentleman resident in Washington, whose appearance indicates a nationality of the south of Europe, happened to be mitted at the Grand this summer his merits," so to speak -that is without the intercession of any other person in his behalf. He was standing in the vestibule one day near the door of the secretary's office, when a party of good-looking New Yorkers called and asked for rooms.

They were promptly told that the house was quite full, a and there was no hope of obtaining quarters for several days. After they had gone out the -as they call a hotel clerk over there-remarked1 to, his associates, "I'm not going to have this hotel filled with damned ice-waterdrinking Yankees." The fault found with our compatriots, it appears, is not that they are personally so objectionable, but that their habits are too abstemious. Their wine bills are not large enough, and so if you bear any of the marks of an American about you, either get promptly introduced or else keep away from the Grand hotel. If you want to see pure, unadulterated British insolence, however, it may be worth while just to call on the "secretary" and listen to the supreme superciliousness with which he tells you that all his rooms are engaged fully one week Washington Capital: Sabscribe for the ARGUS..
