they have the experience OF some men

were considerably startled and hurried
back to camp where they provided them
the hunt for Madam Bruin ami her fam
fly. intending to arrest her progress IL
possible and at the sime time enjoy some
exciting sport. Meantime The game had
evidently taken warning and made good
its escape.
Mrs. Edith A. Macdonald and Miss
Esther Macdonald we're members OF the
BlalSley excursion party that left Bellows
Falls last Saturday for the White Noun
talnS In
terest and the pleasure Of travelling with
out the responsibility of railway and
hotel business arrangements added much
to the occasion. The weather afforded
the variety to be desired and while the
Old Man Of the Mountains was seen with
the clouds sweeping over 1t, the face was
distinctly visible standing out in clear
profile 4107 feet above sea level. Monday
morning dawned with clear skies and
atmosphere purified with the rain of
Saturday. From the heights OF Beth
lehem the panorama of mountains and
valleys stretching away before the eye
was one of unparalleled beauty. The
day was one Of the most perfect known
and for the greater part Mount Washing
ton stood In silent grandeur. plainly out
lined against the sky. The ride In obser-
walton cars through Crawford Notch
down TO Bartlett Is never to be forgotten.
The railway, which is a marvel of en-
gineering and mans perseverance, is
almost forgotten in the excitement Of
sightseeing as the guide names all points
of interest. The attention is fixed upon
the overhanging peaks which seem to
touch the sky and the deep valley below,
which at this time is a cradle Of green
foliage untouched as YET by the Frost
King. The Mount Washington hotel is
the most magnificent structure IN that
locality, a place where every need and
desire OF humankind is catered TO in
the most artistic manner.
