Mark Twain recently invited to revisit
Reno, New, and attend the Fourth of July ceie-
bration. The invitation stirred his memory Of
the days he spent in the Rockies in the early
GUS, although he found that it would be i'm
possible for him to make the trip In replying
to the invitation he recalled some of the memo
ries Of his experiences and showed that the
lapse of time had not caused them TO become
dimmed. His characteristic communication is as
follows:
In the Mountains, New-Hampshire May a. 1905
Dear Mr. Fulton; remember, as If It were yes
teriay, that when 1 disembarked from the over
land stage in front OF the Ormsby In Carson
City, in August, 1861, I was not expecting to be
asked to come again I tired, discouraged
white with alkali dust and did not know any
body; and If you had said then. Cheer up,
desolate stranger, don't be downhearted-pass
on and come again in 1885, you cannot think how
grateful 1 would have been and how gladly
would have closed the contract. Although I
not expecting to be invited, 1 watching out
for it, and hurt and disappointed when you
started to ask and changed it to How soon
aro you going away?" for I orphan
at that time, and had been one many years
that I was getting sensitive about it.
But you have made it all right now, and the

by of his sons On reaching the pier at Jane
St, he photographed with his grandniece

While the Caronia WAS passing up the bay MI
Choate chatted pleasantly with reporters. He said
he had heard of Mr.. Reids arrival in England. add
ing: II knew they would do their best TO give my
successor a hearty reception. Mr.. Reid Is wei
known to them over there, and he'n have a very
good time in England"
Has the ended7" Mr. Choate inquired. and
when told that it had not. he said: Il hope to
heaven It will end soon"
When told there had been talk Of making him
president Of the Equitable Life Assurance Society,
he said: Il have not been consulted in that mat
ter. That exaltation is furthest from my ambi-
ton"
Told that nine directors of the Equitable had
resigned. he said II haven't any knowledge OF
that"
Mr. Choate was asked as to his plans, and he
replied Il haven't any plans. excepting that L
intend to take rest, and Mrs Choate wants me
for home consumption 1 expect to devote some Of
my time to her.
What do you expect to do?"
1T don't know. I may go back to law or into
divinity I might get along as a preacher"
''Are you in favor of President Roosevelts policy
of continuing to build up our navy?'
Il have always been in favor of keeping up the
navy"
Did you hear that three of the Russian cruisers
escaped to NIanila?'
Il did not, but was much pleased and interested
in the white cruisers which met to-day. They
are going to France. I understand. to bring
back Porter and Paul JONES'
Told that President Roosevelt anxious to
promote peace between Russia and Japan. Mr..
Choate replied: Il wish him luck 1 will hear
more about that when I see him.

PRESIDENTS V4CATION.
Enpects To Be at Oyster Bay on
[FRoM THE TRIBUNE BuREAU.l
jane 22.

IFROM THE TRIBUNE BUREAC-I
Washington, June THE President expects
to he at Oyster Bay at o'clock on the night
OF June ID. He will leave Washington on the
evening of June 20, and the two following
days will speak at Clark University. Worcester,
and Williams College, at Williamstown, Mass.
Secretary Loeb has made arrangements to
live at the Seawanhaka club house on Centre
Island while the President is at Oyster Bay.
Last summer Secretary and Mrs. Loeb lived at
the Anchorage, a boarding house In Main-st
three blocks from the executive offices, but last
winter the owner of the house leased it to
family who has decided not to take boarders
so this year the secretary obliged to find
other quarters. The question of accommoda-
tfons at Oyster Bay in summer is a serious one,
for the town has only hotel, which is of linn
ited size, and there are few first class boarding
houses. Centre Island, on which the Seawan-
haka Corinthian Yacht Club house is built, is not
an island, but peninsula, and may be reached
by driving or walking four miles sandy
ROAD, which passes through the little hamlet of
Bayvile. The shorter and quicker route is by
water across one of the arms of the bay, about
TWO miles. From Sycamore Hill, the Presi-
dents home, however, the trip is less than half
a mile, the secretary will be within much
easier reach of his chief than he when
Quartered in the village. The yacht club owns
little steamboat, which makes six or eight
regular daily trips to Oyster Bay from Centre
Island, and telephone and telegraph lines make
even quicker communication possible.
Assistant Secretary Barnes and Messrs. Latta,
McGrew and Webster, the stenographers, who
will go to Oyster Bay with the President will
live at the Thompsons boarding house this year,
as they did last, and the Secret Service men and
messengers who complete the White House con-
tngent will be domicied around the town
where their inclinations and means can best be
served.
