OYSTER BAY AUTOS
CONSTANTLY GOING
White Steamers to Saga
more Hill Have I'M
pOrtant Work.

"A regular Government star-route
conveyance" was the remark OF Sec
retary Taft to Postmaster General
Meyer, as they stepped into the Gov
ernment White steamer at the Oyster
Bay railroad station last Wednesday.
a few minutes later they had been
whisked to President Roosevelt's home
at Sycamore Hill, three miles away.
The sign at the entrance TO the grounds.
No automobiles allowed" Goes not ap-
ply to the two White cars in the Gov
ernment service and the machine did
not stop until It reached the house.
The President had not heard the car
as 1t came up the steep graded drive
way, but an orderly notified him Of
its arrival and he hastened out to greet
the two distinguished visitors.
Il wish Sycamore Hill were farther
away from the station" said the af-
fable Secretary Of War. We'll" re-
piled the President, 1T is quite a way
from the station at Long Island City.
and when you return there IS no rea-
son why you should not go back all
the way IN the machine" And return
in the machine he did, not only to
Long Island City but over the ferry,
across New York, and over the sec
ond ferry TO the Pennsylvania station
at Jersey City.
Secretary Taft's experience is typical
OF that OF all Of the visitors TO the
Presidents home. Two 3O-horsepower
White steamers with seven passenger
Pullman bodies have been In service at
Oyster Bay since the President arrived
there on June y. One OF them, and
sometimes both, have met every train
at the station. In addition, the cars
perform countless other missions for
the Secret Service men and the other
Government officials at the summer
capital" The machines have not been
out Of commission for an hour. despite
the fact that the first run tC the Hill"
Is at a. m. and the last at / a. m.
and are now regarded as absolutely in
dispensable to the expeditions handling

dress at the Chautauqua Woman's Club.
Chautauqua, n. Y. declared Il she had

The consensus Of opinion seems 10 be
that the gradual Increasing length OF

that 1868 viii not see cars having a
much longer wheel base than 1907. A
few Of the six-cylinder cars may prove

Auto Statesmen
Have Designs
On CIergymen

The physicians" said a prominent
Washington auto salesman yesterday.
have constituted prolific source OF
auto sales within the past few years.
THE medical fraternity has, to a sur
prising extent, adopted the auto as a
means ot carrying on city practice. Two
factors figure in this-convcnience and
economy.
The necessity which the physician is
under to be ready for any emergency
is n telling point in the autos favor
The expense Of stablnE and feeding
horses in the city makes the automobile
much cheaper means OF conveyance
than the horse and buggy And the very
fact. by the way. that these conditions
are reversed IN the country is a far
greater drawback to our sales in the
rural districts than is the poor condi-
tion Of the out-of-town roads, as Is
generally supposed. To return to the
doctor problem, the storage charge for
an auto is considerably cheaper than
the livery fee for a horse and buggy.
Next to the doctors, we place our
greatest hopes in the ministers. While
the auto fever is not so highly
developed among the clergy, we are en-
dedvoring to work up the interest in
this branch of the trade. Personally. I
know Of some dozen washington min
isters who how do their visiting in mo-
tor cars. In three Of these cases the
autos were the presents OF their con-
grcgaions. At the risk Of letting out a
good thing 1 will tell You that we are
arranging a systematic campaign amorg
the ministers Of this city, in the hope
of disposing of a few of our 1903 models

 Most Exhalted King Bee: May trespass upon your space to announce to certain Newtown bees of your swarm, that I do not think that they are imbued with that spirit of hospital ity that might be expected of inhabi-, tants of your Heaven kissed hills.
 In making my bow from Overlook, :" 1 did not expect the reception some times accorded Shakespearian aspir- ants on the stage, in the shape of ancient eggs and tired vegetables. Two or more of my fellow ciizens have during the past week or so, surrepti- tiously deposited on the wooded portion of my grounds, a collection of tin cans, broken crockery, old shoes and other articles of virtu, all or which hereby acknowledge with due appreciation.
 No cards were left but the identity of the deposits is circumstantially es- tablished in my mind, without the as- sistance of se Sherlock Holmes, as 1 recognize among the choice selection, the last years hat of MT Citizen Blank, and know those shoes were his by the enormous size, and MT Citi- zen Blankety- blank, I know the other lot of stuff dumped on my ground was formerly in your shed or cellar, as re- cognized your brand of whiskey on the old bottles. I cannot however, place the ownership of the wig and set of false teeth.
 I will continue my investigation but in the meantime, please send no more relics, as I may have to re-deposit them on someone's front stoop, or re- turn them by express, collect.
 Yours fraternally,

A VISIT TO TASHUA HILL.
BY ENVOY A. H. ANTIsDALE.

On this 18th day of June, 1907, ac- companied by my cousin, Stephen J. Parks of Trumbull, have been privi- legged to visit Tashua Hill, said to be the highest elevation in Connecticut.
 Looking through the telescope we saw the sun partly obscured by cloud sinking in crimson glory towards the northwestern hills. We also looked far away toward New York City and but for the smokiness of the day could have perceived Sandy Hook, 50 miles distant where the ships enter New York liar bor. And the hill on which we are standing is the first point seen as they approach from the ocean.
 Far away to the north is Newtown and the region of the Housatonic river, swinging around eatward lies Monroe and Nichols, and to the south spread out before us, rapidly growing Bridge to become the most populous city in the State.
 And beyond-Long Island Sound, a crystal sheet of water heath the rays of the sun on clear day, where many sailboat and passing steamer add to the beauty of the picture.
 The earth is dressed lovely greer verdure of pasture and meadow, grove and woodland and many an attractive farmhouse adds to the pleasure of the scene which enchants our vision. But I must stop this poor attempt al a sketch, for already twilight and the cry of the night hawk warns me tha1 Cousin Steve and I have three miles ol more journey ere we reach the restfu shelter of his home with sharp appe tites for the nice supper that will bt awaiting us.
