The local stood at the station in the
quiet little town of ST. Thomas the
other day, and when the big locomotive
with rush and a roar, came tearing
down the track. bringing with it the
express from New York, modest look
ing man swung down from a sleeper
and entered the rear car of the local
train, bound for London, Can. He had
about him an air of ease and comfort
in his hand a red rose. and in his hair
the mist Of Niagara. It was a warm
and dusty day, but it was not hot The
shady side of the car soon filled up. A
man with a Scotch Irish accent and a
reef or red throat whiskers that made
fence round his face took a seat on
the sunny side, threw up the shade
and raised the window. Other passen-
gers came in, took seats and began to
jam their wondows up also. A stout
woman with a slim child took a place
at one Of the windows, and the train
pulled out.
viii you kindly close the front
door?' asked the red rose man Of the
news butcher The peanut exchanged
smiles with the monkey-faced man,
walked TO the front of tine car and shut
the door with a bang. Then, thinking,
perhaps, that he had done too much
good for one day, he pushed a spring
and let the top half of the glass drop
down. The fireman was raking his fire,
and now the dark yellow smoke suck
ed in through the opening in the door
and filled the car with foul fumes as
thick as London fog. The wind we had
was neither head nor beam-it blew
bias.
1t swept the dust and gravel under
the train and brought it up on a line
with the open windows, where it met
and mingled with the smoke, SCOT and
cinders that were blown above the top
of the train. People began to cough.
'Win you be good enough to close
that window in the front door," said
the man o the mist to the conductor.
.Bedad." said the monkey-faced man,
that feily must come from a hot
place. and then he smiled q smile al
the peanut that threatened to break
the fence down. He's a fool, the dude
with the rose said the fat woman as
she damned her window up as far as
it would go. The pale child in her lap
was nearly suffocated by the smoke
that had been pouring in through the
opening in the door, but now, as she
held IL in the open window where the
eddying wind swfrled and swept the
smoke and dust in, it fairly gasped for
breath. Other passengers saw this,
and out of the goodness Of their hearts
went sympathy for the suffering child,
and out of their ignorance hatred for
the modest traveller with the mist in
his hair
BY this time all the windows on the
sunny side were wide open, and the
smoke was so thick that you could not
see a cars length.
I don't wish to run your train, said
the stranger TO the conductor; but if

disgust. The red REFER turned square

enough to bring the seizures up to s7O.-
coo. Kidd promised, if released, to pro-
cure 100000 more property concealed
by himself, to which he alone knew the
way, and for which search has ever
since been made, but political and other
reasons interfered. and he was sent to
England in chains. After much delay
he was tried, denied the ordinary priv
ileges of prisoners, which were none too
many at that day, and finally sentenced
TO death on what is certainly insult
fcient evidence, however guilty he may
have been. He was hanged for murder
and piracy May a, 1901.
Judge Sewall was in charge of the
Kidd confisca tons in Boston. and his
life was made an unhappy one thereby.
for there were pirates and adherents of
Kids in plenty in that day, and he
was in fear of personal violence almost
as much as Of an attempt TO retake the
plunder. He notes in his diary of Wed

great mercy of God that the storehouse
has not been broken up nor no fire

And to the very last it is to be seen
that the judge, like many others. looked
for some sort Of interference from the
friends of Bellamont, whose share in
the piracy remains mystery to this

warm occupation In midsummer.
There are a half dozen wealthy New
York men who own beautiful country
places near the Hotel Champlain and
have yachts and other luxuries. Doubt
less the president will have the use OF
any OF these yachts II he wants TO ex-
plore the lake. If he does, he will see
some very beautiful scenery, though
nothing so wild or fine as Lake George
produces.
1t is understood that the president
will visit the splendid Shelburne farms
before he leaves Champlain. They are
one of the sights Of the section. Stu
ated less than half an hours ride below
Burlington. they are probably the cost
lest specimens OF model farming" in
America. The Hon. William NJ. Evarts
has a beautiful farm at Windsor. VT.

the president on a visit to Shelburne.
Seven years ago IL took President Har-
rison from Burlington to st. Albans
when he made n tour of Vermont. 1T is
very finely equipped In fact, its fur
nishings are hardly equaled by those Of
any other yacht i'm commission. Hard
woods, fine marbles, costly onyx and
ormolu are features of the decoration
of the staterooms. and its pantry il
equipped with the finest china, silver
and cut glass.
There are some fine roads around
Bluff Point and the president can in
dulge I'm his favorite horseback exercise
TO his hearts content. He can also walk
for exercise since he probably does not
care for golf or tennis. There are fine
equipages and good driving roads for
Mrs. McKinley's delectation.
The Hotel Champlain is a dressy
place. Ii is not the sort of summer re-
sort where you can live i'm flannels or a
shirt waist Dressing twice day is a
prime necessity, and golf suits and
yachting suits give way i'm the evening

The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1897-08-07

II is a striking illustration of the GU
rious friendship between President Nc
Kinley and Vice President Hobart that
when the president wanted to find a
summer home the vice president sug-
gested the Hotel Champlain. his own
favorite resort, and the president ac-
cepted the suggestion. 1t is singular
because no president and vice president
In recent history have held cordial re-
lations with each other. Vice President
Stevenson used TO get as far away from
President Cleveland as possible in sum-
mer Uwo years ago Mr.. Stevenson went
10 Alaska and Mr.. Cleveland to Buzz
yards Bay), and President Harrison
and Vice President Morton were almost
as far apart as the poles.
Only one member OF Mr.. McKinley's
official family had spent season on
Champlain before. Mr.. Gage was there
two or three years ago. This summer
Secretary Alger joins the president and
the vice president in their summer out
ing. and some of the other members OF
the cabinet are within easy range. You
can get to the Hotel Champlain from
New York in nine hours, from Wash
ington in IA hours and from Boston In
nine hours or less You can go by lake
or by rail or by river at least part OF
the way.
The Hotel Champlain stands on bluff
ooking down on Lake Champlain. on
the other side il looks down into a val
ley and beyond TO mountain ridge.
You cannot look in any direction with
out seeing an exquisite bit of scenery.
From the window OF his room in the
annex OF the hotel the president can
hot lalx mo "a
one window ne can look down the wind
ing road which leads from the wharf to
Me hotel and spy the approach of an
office seeker.
The Mckinley rooms are a suit OF five
on the main floor OF the epnex. Secre-
ary Porter's suit is directly under
them. The Mckinley rooms are deco
rated in blue. The manager of the ho-
le made an unsuccessful effort TO get
J violet wall paper to match the paper
N Mrs. McKinley's room in the White
House. But the rooms are blue, one OF
them in blue and pink, the other in
delicate tint OF greenish blue. They are
furnished handsomely, but not elabo-
rately, because they are not large
rooms. The president could have had
large rooms i'm the main building. but
privacy is a necessity to him, and in the
main building he could not have OBJ
tanned privacy at any cost OF course
the hotel is a house Of public entertain
ment, and the clerk cannot refuse to
register a guest merely because he looks
as If he might try To break into the
presidents room and steal an office.
The rooms in the annex are guarded
from intrusion by hallboys. They are
used only by the permanent guests OF
the house. The presidents rooms are
screened off from the others. so that he
has in effect private hall.
The corner room, which is the bed
room, has a large closet and a private
bath. II has bay window at one side
and full length window opening on a
small piazza at the other. The adjoin-
ing room is a dressing room and sitting
room.
The presidents table is in a circular
