Yesterday noon in the presence of a
large number of people, Joe Leathers
launched the new boat for Elmore's
cannery, which he has been building
during the last month or two. She is
an improved twin screw steamer and
is expected to equal anything of her
class on the river. She will be used in
the season as a cannery tender. After
the launching the steamer was towed
up to scow bay, and was christened
the FL Hurd.

man Of experience that a llghtship
should be placed in the lower Columbia
harbor. upon the same theory as those
now in use in the Clyde. With a light

navigators would find Il an easy mat

Immediately planned little walk of ten
minutes to the top of an adjacent
mountain, the view from which amply
repaid our little wait for dinner, though
we were hungry. At our feet we looked
down upon Lake Dunmore and the
beautiful valley of Otter creek, the
grand Adirondack range standing out
plainly i'm the distance, with here and
there glimpse of Lake Champlain. We
trust Mr.. Chandler's plan of erecting an
observatory on this spot may be success
full before another season.
Then down we went to dinner. And
such dinner! The only fault we could
find was lack of capacit''. After dinner,
our host, bent on making it still more of
"red letter day" for us, proposed that
we should see La Scala falls. Much to
Jacks disgust (who was more anxious to
start for home than to see water falling
over rOcks) we started. The road is
beautiful, but the way is rough, though
Mr.. Chandler like Christian in "Pil-
grims Progress'O kept cheering us on.
At last we reached the spot below the
falls. They are beautiful, Then we
were told "You do not see all their
grandeur from this point" Nothing
loathe, we wanted to see it all. With
our careful guide (who does not mind
rocks any more than a goat) we began
to climb. At one point we were startled
by one of our party Ga fine climber say
ing, mo. | cannot 90 up there" Our
guide asked if she was dizzy. "No, but
| shall be. if | 90 up there" was the
response; but with persuasion she con-
lady was safely landed on the heights,

BREAD LOAF.

The season at this well-known sum
mer hotel has been one of the most
prosperous in its history. About 40
guests still remain. Tuesday party of
II. with one tour-hOrse and one two
horse team. drove to Mr.. Benedict's at
the foot of Snake mountain, but did not
make the ascent of the mountain, as the
day was somewhat stormy. The party
therefore returned to Middlebury, and.
after partaking of a Widespread lunch
in the rooms of the Battel block, to
Bread Loaf. On Monday a smaller eX-
cursOn went from the Inn to SILVER
Lake. Arrangements have been made
for trip from Bread Loaf with two
four-horse teams to st. Johnsbury and
return by Montpelier, starting Sept. 2S.
Among guests now present at the Inn
are Stephen II. Post and family, Mrs.
Lucy A. Buhler and Miss Lucy KutZ of
Brooklyn; Mrs. Stephen w. Baldwin
and daughter, Miss Louise Shipman,
Mrs. Allis, Miss Rictta Allis, Mrs. Cash

A TRIP TO SILVER LAKE.
While most of our friends of the sum-
mer are at their homes in the cities pre-
pairing for the winter, we, few fOrtu-
nate ones, are enjoying the beauties of
the fall with our genial host at Bread
Loaf. To make our friends at home
envious, | will tell them of little trip
we took on Monday.
A carriage load of congenial spirits,
with Jack Mcmahon as driver, started
about $50 a. m. for Silver Lake. To us
all the beauties along the road seemed
unsurpassed, but when we reached the
wooded road, the last four miles (Jack
called it ten) before we approached the
house, we did nothing but exclaim SIT is
exquisite!" Next summer, go see fol
yourself
! We received most cordial welcome
from the proprietor, Mr.. Chandler, whC

There is another point of view. The
foreign debt of the country is payable in
gold. The duties on imported mer-
chandise are collected in silver, or on
that basis. The high rates of exchange,
together with the decrease in our Gus
toms collections before alluded to, have
caused considerable shrinkage in this
source of revenue.
