oyster Bay. Sept lS-Col Roosevelt re-
turned 10 Sycamore Hill this morning
after his party with the upstate folks
in Syracuse yesterday. He spent the day
quietly and restfully. and did not see
any visitors 1t is not very often in
these strenuous times that the colonel
is able to snatch a day of respite from
conferences and Endorsements and things,
and he appreciated the calm of Oyster
Bay.
After his meeting with Woodruff,
Hendricks, and other members of the
old guard yesterday, Col Roosevelt had
nothing upon which to comment tonight.
Nothing of a political nature was de-
velOped at Lieut.. Gov. Whites dinner, az
Syracuse because 1t was a mixed COM
pany and not given To free speech. SO
far as the Saratoga convention is con-
cerned. Col Roosevelt had nothing to
say He Is mum as regards the indorse-
ment of the administration and Mr.. Taft
for 1912. and ii he has expressed his I'M
willingness 10 stand for such indorse-
ments at the convention it has been in
confidence. Perhaps the colonel will say
something soon, but when he does 1t will
be In the form of an authoritative state
ment for publication.
The week promises TO be a lively one
preparatory to the big scrap in Sara
toga. Col Roosevelt expects TO win. and
If he goes down. it will be after a bit
ter struggle. He'll come TO New York
twice this week, and will see lot of his
constituents. In the time that remains
before the convention the colonel counts
on doing quite a bit of planning.

Mr.. A. L. Ackerley, of this city, is
the owner of an old English chest
which has been in the Ackerley fam
lily for more than a hundred years,
and has recently had Ross Sanders
revarnish and paint it up so that it
is a thing of beauty. Mr.. Ackerley's
father was a sailor and the chest ac-
companied him to all parts of the
world, having been handed down to
him from his father. He came to
America in 1852 and took the chest
across the plains in 1853, travelling
with an OK team. The chest is made
of cherry and butternut wood.

Ralph Sigler had very narrow
escape from drowning last Sunday
afternoon. He was camping with a
party on fishing trip at Woodard's
dam, and started to swim across the
deep hole, when his strength failed
and he sank. The water is very deep
and swift there and he had gone
down the second time when John and
Marion Woodland managed to push a
fish pole to him which he grasped
and was pulled to the shore. There
were many people on the river and
they were greatly excited over the
narrow escape, as there have been
many persons drowned in this hole

The Canadians claim that the
movement across the border from the
United States this year will amount
to 10000 persons and they will
carry $150,OO0,000 with them. 1t is
no wonder that the middle west,
where the most of these emigrants
come from, shows some effect of this
exodus in the way of decreased bank
deposits. Emigration from other
countries is from this class which
has very little property to take with
them, but those going to Canada
largely come from well-to-do fam.
