Ondawa Club Notes
RAID on THE CLUB.

The serenity of the Club was greatly
disturbed by raid made on them Sat
urday night bymasked delegates OF the
Carrie Nation society. who appeared
with hatchets in their hands and war
in their eyes.
The surprise was SO complete that
little resistance was offered by the
twenty five members present. Chez OF
Police Regain lost his head and took
refuge under the billiard table, so the
Club had no protection from the strong
arm of the law. In the old days when
Charles Milett was chief of police tins
would never have happened.
The cash boxes of the Club were left
intact and ms there were no bar fixtures
no glass was broken as is usual IN such
raids.
The masks worn by the raiders pre-
vented recognition, but detectives are
at work ferreting out the raldlng par
ties.
AT first it was supposed to be from
members of the "Five Hundred tlnb
which society had meeting that even
ing but ms no talking was INDUCED IN
conclusions are that no members OF
that society took part.
As the club was found TO be in such
an orderly and proper condition no one
was decapitatcd or no seaps taken,
which is much TO the credit oil the On
dawa Club and the forbearance of the
rniders

Summer Tourist Business.

After the construction 81 the Della
ware a Hudson railroads. line oB the
vest SHORE Of Lake Chatnplain, some
~ The rallroad men on this side of the
lake complained that the new line had
seriously inieffered with business Of
the Vermont roads. This could readily
be understood. but II has remained n
mystery why The management Of the
Vermont railroads should continue 10
ailow the Empire Stale rival W take
business away from them through their
failure ~ keep pace with ~.
II is acknowledged that summer
hotels serve to draw visitors in large
number ~ communities or sections
where hotels have been provided, aud
other things being equal that place
which has the most hotels secures the
greatest number Of guests. Up Ia The
present time the railroads on the Yer
mont shore Of Lake Champlaln have
taken no part 10 the movement 10 build
summer hotels. while the Delaware a
Hudson has not only erected magnlti.
cent structures Of this character but
has also determined TO provide n chain
Of summer hotels along lis lines. In
addition 10 its famous hostelry AT Bluff
Point il has the hotel at Ausable
Chasm, aud according 10 the latest re-
ports II now proposes 10 strengthen It's
position by increasing the tide OF travel
through the Improvement of the hotel
situation on Lake George.
Ii is announced that President Loree
Of the Delaware a Hudson has author
ized the expenditure Of So, 900 or more
for the rebuilding and improvement OF
the famous Fort William Henry hotel Mt
the head Of Lake George, putting il on
par with Hotel Champlaln, and that
the company proposes 10 conduct il UNI
der the same management. The inter
ior, grounds and outbuildings are to be
entirely revamped, modern furnishings
installed and garage constructed.
Schedules will bearranged so ms 10 fac
iitaie travel between the two great
hotels. and an attempt will be made 10
have the improvements completed so
that the chain Of hotels will be ready
for the season Of 1908.
II goes without saying that this pro.
gressive policy will serve To materially
increase the Delaware 4 Hudson's sum
mer business. Instead OF holding that
the provision of another hotel will hurt
the Hotel Champlain. il is wisely con
cluded that the increasing tide of sum
mer travel resulting from sugmentedat
fractions will tend 10 swell the patron
age of the Bluff Point hostelry, and in
view of the experience of other summer
resorts this will nnquestionably prove
To be the ease.
The way to get business in this age
is 10 go after il, aud the sooner the
railroads of Vermont become aroused
10 this fact the more speedy will be
their sharing IN increased tourist travel
in the Champlain valley. Free Press.

A Million Dollars IN Assets.

There is usually some good reason
for abnormal growth in any business
and il is so with Savings Banks. The
North Troy Palladium seems to think
il has discovered the secret OF the large
growth of the l.imoile County Savings
Bank and Trust Company. II says;
The Hyde Park savings bank reached
a notable point in It's history July IL,
when for the first time the assets oil
the institution reached the million
mark. The master mind in the affairs
Of the bank is that of its president,
Carroll S. Page, and 10 that tar-slghted
policy and liberal treatment that SO
markedly characierizes all his business
and financial dealings, is largely due
the great increase in assets and The
success that has always attended the
institution.
This Bank pays 4 per cent. com
pounded semi-annually on deposits OF
500 or more, remaining in the bank
one full year.
