Some Expansion and Room for More of
It-From Sachem's Head to Hawaii.
To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
The torrid heat of the Glorious Fourth
sent mutitudes in all directions looking
for cooling breezes, which many falled
| to find. The writer hoped to find 1t by
I going east but while there was enough
wind for the Sachem's Head Yacht club
! to make their annual regatta without
chartering tugs to be ready to tow them
in before night, the heat was so much
in evidence that we might conclude that
it came straight from the sandy deserts
of Long Island. The crowd that filled
| their club house to overlooking was full
of enthusiasm and things- and while
| those who won were twice glad, the los
ers took their medicine like little man
| and made large claims for next year,
wind and weather permitting. The Sa-
| chems Head Hotel was crowded so that
not another one could be lodged except
on the broad verandahs in hammocks or
on the lawns that are clad with Verdure.
Mine Host Sperry isrsadly in need of
strong fit of expansion SO that a reason-,
able proportion of applicants for rooms
can be accommodated. At present more
refusals than acceptances are sent out.
For those who run down for dinner or
supper there is enough and to spare and
the quality is first-cass. A new article
on the menu is "Frozen Pudding a la
Sachem," and if the old historic Sachem
was wont to indulge freely In Frozen
Pudding it is small wonder that his
head was found in the forks of an old
tree and his body was not! 1t remind
ed us of that good old total-abstinence
deacon of this city who once fell afoul
Of some frozen Roman
punch" perhaps, that had just faint
of the critter in it, which he declared
was "the very incest ice cream that he
ever tasted" But it Is not necessary
that one should fill up with Frozen
Pudding!" You don't have to, you
know There are lots of warm victuals
well cooked and abundantly served, but
more rooms are very much in demand.
Among the permanent and transient
guests we found H. H. Jacobs John p.
Mckay, Mrs. Mckay, Daniel Prentice,
Misses Ethel, Beatrice and Helen Prem
tice Mr. William II. Peck, Miss Elem
Peck, David f. Tracey, Mrs. Tracey
and the Misses Tracey, Charles e. Fay.

West, Mrs West and the Misses Flor
ence and Marjorie West and others from
Montclar New Persey. Mr.. and Mrs.
Muller and Miss Muller from Chicago;

from Cuba; Mrs. David Daniels and
Miss Fargaret Daniels from AAnnapo- |
lis, Md, and many others.
The Stewards, from New York. make
their fine cottage. bloodhound" look
very cheerful, and the Howells, from
Philadelphia, fill up the old farm house
near the hotel for the whole season.
Mrs Howell, who was a Waterbury girl |
some years since, can scarcely remem-
Der when she first made Sachem's Head |
a summer resort, and she remains true |
to her first love, and II was not fear |
full that some gossip would repeat 1t to |
her, I should say that in these degene-
rate days she is an ideal wife and moth |
er, and does appear to ''let her light |
shine as such Not that any but first |
chop" wives and mothers ever visit or |
sojourn at this place.
Now to make a wide detour let me |
give you an extract from the latest adj |
dition to the republican press of this
country. "The Honolulu Republican" |
which entered the wide field Of Journal
ism less than month ago has come to
stay. 1t is about a veteran republican,
of Connecticut Charles -. |
who came down with the
Maui delegation and did quiet work for
the party in Hawaii" The extract
says
Any other man in these Hawaiian Is
lands of the United States of America,
to be the oldest republican
party member is hereby invited to COM
pare his service record with that of
Charles d. Loveland who came down
with the Maui delegation to the first ter
ritorial convention, and who still re-
mains visiting in the capital. Mr.. Love-
