CATSKILLS NEED RAIN.
Some Resorts ScantiIy Supplied scith
Water-Crozcds of Visitors.

Kingston N Y. Aug. IL (SpeciaD.-The crying
need in the Cstskills IS a cOpious rainfall.
The mountain lawns brown and dying, in
spite of all the artificial sprinkling and all YER
dure is drying up. Roads and paths are dusty.
and Of the resorts scentily supplied
with water. For the last two weeks there has
been little II any rain. while the bright, sunny
days have caused rapid absorption of moisture.
The fact Is. every observer IN the mountains
cannot fail TO note the steady decrease in the
normal water supply of the Catskills year after
year, and 10 is a subject or great regret, de-
tracting materially from the native attractions
of the range a summer resort Waterfalls
that once roared are now stiiled into tricklfng
streams. and the little roadside springs have
dried I'D and gone. Even the famous cataraCtS
of KaatersISiIl and Haines Falls are little
than rivulets now, dripping over the rocks lazily
and mournfully. The pretty kaaterskin Lake
was never so low. and the many rowers must
steer carefully to avoid the weeds and lilies
But every part Of the range is crowded with
visitors as never before and every day brings
hundreds more, while there are no departures OF
auy account as yet. and will not be until Sep
ternber The old Catskil Mountain House has
already turned away more than a second house
fuI for lack of room. And the big Hotel kaat
erskiH has no vacant beds for the first time in
many years. Nobody seems able TO account for
the unusual rush to the Catskis this season,
for which none of the hotel pre-
pared Various theories are advanced. and
there Is much speculation on this topic. Some
saw people have tired of the coast resorts. and
the Catskils are the only nearby mountain re-
sort where visitors get the best air at low rates
and where the business man may come and go
freely between business and his family without
serious demands upon his bank account. And
then they add TT is another indication OF the
great prosperity of the common people of this
country.
The old Van Steenburgh House at Kingston.
which escaped the Revolutionary fire in 1tf1.

The destruction of the Squirrel Inn there by
