and mosquitoes. know of no place these
pests do not invade at some time during
the summer. The fashionable hotels are
invariably very expensive, but at the
smaller and less Weil-knOWn places one
can procure board from SO per week up

a bit, for even less. But the trip to and
from New England is very expensive

which will be gladly furnished you by
any OF the railroads that run through
these sections.

STUDENT.

affect Mr.. Towers future career. and the
lack Of tact shown in his MANAGEMENT
OF the whole affair makes it improbable
that ne will again be invited to represent
his country in a diplomatic capacity. but
it is said that Mr.. Tower is quite finished
with diplomacy and that on his return
