Landlord of Hotel Handsomely Re-

 Ernest Meyer, the popular proprietor of the Garde hotel, was presented yes- terday afternoon with a beautiful lov- ing cup by his employees als a token of their regard for him and appreciation of his uniform kindness and considera- ton. Last evening MT. Meyer prepared the customary Christmas tree, beauti- fully lighted, in the lobby at the hotel, and invited the drummers who were absent from their homes to partake of the good Yuletide cheer. Every drum mer received a present, and the evening was spent in swapping yarns and old Christmas stories. The tree was beau tifully decorated with tinsel galore, glass balls of every conceivable shape and color and glass figures of highly colored peacocks and other birds. There were many pictures of Santa Claus and other pictures that were appropriate to the occasion.

new ideas of human achievements and the spirit of enterprise.
 Utica, on the right bank of the Mo- hawk, has two banks, four churches, one academy, large and we'll stocked stores, a book dealer and a publishing house Besides several taverns, 1t has three large hotels. We found excellent accommodations in the largest, called Shepherds Hotel. This house has over 70 beds, always ready for the accommo- dation of strangers, and often they are insufficient. No one here remembers of 8 summer during which so many trav- elers arrived, particularly from the southern states, where the heat is so unherable and where the summer Is so unhealthy. In such an American ipotel, everything is extremely clean and comparatively cheap. One must reckon for board and lodging about $1 per day You are called up early in the morning before seven. The bed rooms are generally very roomy, the beds are good and wide, and the linen very fine and clean. Also the necessary washing utensils are not overlooked. After dressing one steps downstairs to the ground floor into the barrooon. There one finds all kinds of refreshing and heart-strengthening drinks. Here also is the office of the head waiter, who takes charge of the accounts. The landlord is generally a gentleman, who eats with the guests and takes part in the conversation. Besides the vesti-
 
 shoes are placed, and where one finds them the next morning we'll shined, are several small rooms for sitting, reading and writing. Half an hour af- ter rising one is called to breakfast. You enter the dining room and find a linen4covered table with beefsteak, mutton, roast rabbit and other game, fish and boiled potaroes of excellent quality. The walters, or in many places waitresses, serve tea and coffee. As in general, the Americans are very quiet people, so are they by such a break fast, which is done away with in great hurry and stiffness. Dinner is gener- ally served about 2 D. m., and supper about '. The table for supper is set very much Nike the breakfast, with the exception of ragouts and pastry. No one is under obligation to drink wine. On the table stands water and whiskey, which they mix in summer and is con sidered g. most healthful drink. Every body helps himself, for the dishes are not passed around. Napkins are not in general use and one must instead use the table cloth Except the spoons there is no silver on the table. The forks are of steel, two pronged, and the handles are made of deer horn. A good ar- arrangement is that by which parting guests do not have to pay tips.''
 Here We leave the duke starting on his long journey toward the Mississipr pi Valley, after giving Us pleasing pen picture of hotel life in old Utica.- Richard Owen in Utica Press.

UTICA IN 1925.
The Impressions it Left on the Mind of

The Impressions it Left on the Mind of
 8, German Duke.
 When was in Berlin about nine years ago I picked up a book entitled "Reise ST. Hoheit der Herzogs Bern hard, durch Nord America, in den Jal1- ren 1925 und 1926" (Travels of His Highness Duke Bernhard through North America in the Years 1825-1S26). published in We1n7ar 1928 by William Hoffman. The book Is beautifully bound. It has copper engravings, ex- cellent linen maps and charts. His descriptions of New York, Boston, New Orleans, St. Louis, Montreal and Quebec, are highly interesting and very valuable from an historical standpoint.
 His highness was a. person of conse- quence, for upon his arrival in New York he was saluted by the guns of the warships and entertained by the city officials and by the officers of tho Brooklyn Navy Yard. Society also donned her best for him and his associ- ations with the well-known persons of the day are subjects of valued remin- iscences. What interests us most is his arrival in Utica by one of the first boats on the Erie canal. will endeav- or to give g. literal translation of what he had to say about the village in 1925.
 Utica, through which the canal runs, is a prosperous village of about 4,00O inhabitants, and is situated where for- merly stood a redoubt against the In- dians. In the year 17g4 small tavern was the only inhabitable building in this neighborhood, but now Utica stands as one of the most flourishing towns in the state of New York and meanwhile new houses are being built. In fact one begins to wonder here at the great progress which this young land has made in culture and acquires
