hours mark these last of July days
along the Massachusetts, North Shore.
Bright lettered days with a list of
activities varied in the offering and
making the sojourn of those who
claim the charming stretch of shore

delight. Rare weather has had much
to do in making the season to date a
most successful one and encouraging
those who have ambitious plans in
the making for future events. Yacht
ing has come into Its own and from
Nahant to Rockport on Saturdays
and through the week days there is
a succession of white-winged fleets
from the great schooner yachts to
the 15-footers SO popular in Marble

royal sport, has been a magnet draw
ing many Washington colonists to
Myopia and Prince mere. while this
week one of the features was the
ladies' tennis tournament played on
the grass courts Of the Essex County
Club, bringing together one of the
most brilliant groups of players ever
assembled on the North Shore

the North Shore. as in Washington
is finding the Mayfiower his one best
vacation asset and the sunburn

Bolivian Freedom
Anniversary Will Be
Observed in Fete Here
Minister Freyre, Noted in
Literary Field, Arranges
Event for August s.
NE~RV NIX "a

DR.. Ricardo Jaimes Freyre. Minister
from Bolivia, is among the diplo-
matists who have served in this Cap
ital and who were at the same time
among the foremost literateurs of
their countries and Of their times.
Lord Bulwer Lytton was the envoy
of Great Britain at the time when his
fame was paramount as the author
Of popular and mastery novels. SEN
hor Joachim Nabuco, first Ambas-
sador from Brazil, was a poet of first
rank In the Portuguese tongue. James
Bryce had greater fame as a writer
than as a diplomat when he came to
Washington, and the recent Ambas-
sador from the French Republic, M.
Jules Jusserand, had written his
greatest books before he achieved the
last round in the career of statecraft.
The Bolivian scholar is a poet of dis
tinction and has two lengthy produc-
tions which rank high in contem-
porary letters, "Castalia Barbara"
and Los Suenos son Vida" besides
two books of shorter poems.
But since it is as a historian that
the Minister has climbed the greater
heights Of fame, 1t Is appropriate that
under him Bolivia should celebrate
fittingly in the American Capital the
centennial anniversary of the adop-
ton of its constitution and it's birth
as an autonomous republic. The Min
lister, Sonora Freyre and Senorita
Yolanda Freyre have been busy for
some days deciding details about the
reception and dance which will be
given on the evening of August 8 at
the Pan American Hall after 10
o'clock. Bolivia, which had been for
800 years province Of Spain, known
as Alto or upper Peru, celebrates
July l6, 1909, as it's independence day,
for on that date the martial forces
of the country proclaimed their sepa-
ration from the mother country and
took to the field under the heroic
Gen. Simon Bolivar The republic
was named Bolivia in his honor on
the day that actual independence was
achieved, August s. soon to be 100
years ago. Bolivia on this same date
inaugurates her chief executives
every fourth year. and the year of
the centenary Is also the day on
which Senior Don Gabino Villaneuva,
who was elected about fourth months
ago as the Republican candidate
against the Liberal, will assume the
duties OF his high Office.
Kellogg VIII Be Present.
Though such splendid fetes in the
Pan-American Hall as the Minister
and Sonora Freyre contemplate on
August 6 are rare in Midsummer at
the Capital, there will be sufficient
number of American and foreign dig
nitaries to make 1t the outstanding
event of the season. The Secretary
of State will be present and there is
every assurance that Mrs. Kellogg
will also be in the city. and celeb
rites in the diplomatic corps will be

A splendid, new, and thoroughly
modern hotel. nine stories high, AZ
rooms, two-thirds of them with con-
Meeting baths. a first floor restaurant
and a beautiful second floor lobby
with lounge overlooking Water street
is Il possibility for Augusta in the
very near future. if plans now ready
for competitive bids by building con-
tractors are carried out. The new
hotel would be located in the very
heart of the business section as the
project contemplates adding six
stories to the Viewer restaurant
block now owned by Henry ]. Te-
treault. and would be the command
ing skyscraper of Central Maine,
towering a story and half higher
than the old Allen building, now
known as the Augusta Trust Com
pany block, which is next door to the
Tetreault property.
The hotel project would cost up
wards of SIS. 1000 and would to a con-
siderable measure solve the hotel
problem for those of the travelling
pub lie, who have been averse to 60
ing out of the business section. and
who have not been satisfied with the
present facilities offered by the small
err lodging houses. There is n group
of the travelling public, whose bust
ness calls them to Augusta frequently
but for short soiourns. who have
long bewailed Tthe insuffcicncy OF
modern hotel facilities in the business
section and adjacent to the railroad
! and car stations.
Mr.. Tetreault stated yesterday that
it was not at all certain that the pro-
| jec would he carried through. but ad-
mitted that the plans and specifiCa =
t tions have been prepared and will he

story addition would rise three stories
more than the Augusta Trust Com
pany building. but as the postage OF
the hotel would be less than that OF
the several floors of the adjacent
block. the new structure would actu-
ally project only about a story and 4
half above the present highes. build

would be retained with minor changes
