Advantages Of Travel.

Prom the Richmond Times.
One Of the forms that the expenditure
Of wealth has taken has been the increas-
ed travel on tire part of those who are
not wont 10 take their pleasures in this
way The New England States are es-
Decially the home Of those who travel for
pleasure. and the passenger traffic in
those States is little short of marvellous
during the summer months. The great
advantages Of the mountain and lake and
seashore. all of which are offered TO the
residents Of that section for the slight
cost OF a few dollars of none for hours
10 travel. have built up a habit Of trav-
cling among that community which is.
perhaps. unequaled anywhere else in the
world But the increase OF wealth in the
South and West has led TO exactly the
,ame results. and a summer trip for rec
reation and knowledge is now one of the
fixed periods of rest and pleasure in the
life Of the great majority of the people
of this country Such q state of affairs
Is an Indication of both q saner point of
view and a greater power for ENJOYMENT
Of the pleasures Of life. As q people the
Americans travel with their ewes wide
0Ben and with their minds ready TO re-
ceive the impress of new ideas and for
eign customs. Such a mental attitude is
sure 10 bring home a stimulus that viii
react favorably on the whole community.
An American who sees a good thing in
another part of his own country or in
England or France is perfectly willing to
try 10 transplant that idea to New York
pr Virginia or Nebraska as the case nav
be. Apart from the pleasure in such
rip to the traveller. there is 10 small
-ain TO the nation from having the vari-
,us States brought into closer relation
shin, which follows inevitably upon per-
s0nal contact

TO THAT EFFECT.
Upon Arriving in Manila the Captain
Stated That He vas 30 From In
6isession-Points to His Record
as Proof Of Bravery.

The Manila American contains Ii
following concerning an Army officer
who stopped on here about two
months ago
A story comes by the Fitzpatrick
that does not reflect much credit upon
the conduct OF Captain Aldrich. for
merly OF the Thirty-ffth Volunteers.
Aldrich was appointed a arst lieuten-
ant OF native scouts after the return
OF his regiment to the states.
Aldrich owes his pull 10 the fact Of
his having married a niece Of General
shafter. he was ordered 10 the Phil
Ippines and set sail on the Fitzpatrick.
Just before arriving az Honolulu
Aldrich was afflicted with a touch Of
