vious occasions the vicinity OF the Hotel Brunswick
crowded yesterday morning 10 witness tho de-
pnrture of the coach. Colonel Kano mounted TO his

answered right royalty TO tho hint 10 90 ahead,
and, like welcome friend, Colonel Kane received
many rousing salute from the the way. II
Is noteworthy that Colonel Kano never distracted by
conversation. He Is as cool a cucumber and what
to the cautious observer might times seem some
whit flight place. he to regard with pleasant
indifference no cheerfuy guides his splendid toam
to tho front lndccd, the experiment has been a
happy Yesterday afternoon the coach rolled
