a THE BURLINGTON FREE CAMPING ON CHAMPLAIN Park Where Summer Fishing Enthusiasts Gather. Fish, Fresh from the Lake, la Regular Menu for Summer ColonistsGrand Mountain Scenery and Interesting Forests. (From the New York Post.) When the red of the morning sun glints through the black holes of the trees on the ridge to the east, the boats put out Into Shelburne Bay. At they grate down the pebbles of and Intervals, catch the gentle slap, slap of the waves stirred up by Champlain's west wind. There is a half somnolent creak of oarlocks, muffled steps in the boats, and the rasp of ropes over the sides as the anchors are let go.

Then the lazy vacationists ashore may snatch last nap before it is time for the rest of Burlington's Queen City Perk to become fully awake. From one of the later risers on the shore a hail goos over the water: "How many have caught?" "Enough for breakfast; coming right in." Others still sit patiently in the sterns of their boats, dropping lines over elther side. Occasionally they lift them siightly. Suddenly one stiffens into action, hauls quickly on a line, and something shiny flashes over the gunwale. All up and down tho hundred miles of the lake the scene is repeated for Champlain Is a Mecca for cottagers and campers In tents.

They are strung out often at long distances from a base of supplies, but more frequently within striking distance of some village where the camp larder can be replenished and mail received. Tne park is a beautiful grove of pines en the shore, well kept by the association and dotted with little cottages, for the most part unceiled and for summer use only. From their porches one may toss stones into the water. A path leads away through the woods to the trolley and the railroad, and during the season the land trains make regular stops. The owners occupy their own cottages, except for a few which are rented, the association being merely the municipal government, 80 to speak, with supervision over the policing of the grounds and the artesian water supply.

MANY MOTOR BOATS. Motor boats are responsible for a spreading out of those campers who want isolation of position with ready cominunication. Their number is rapidly ing under the stimulus of such transit, until on some of the smaller lakes the "put, of many engines has banished forever a feeling of retirement. But when one turns either point Burlington's crescent bay he is as much alone, for all purposes, as was Samuel de Champiain in his bark canoe. There are more restless ones who will no place for longer than a night.

that whose roomy cruisers hold cooking outfits and blankets, with provisions that are renewed at convenient ports or lakeside farmhouses. They usually cook ashore over a fire of driftwood, and at night drop anchor in soine sheltered cove. Cushions are spread in the cockpit, and the soft rocking of the waves brings dreamless sleep. The morning bath 19 overside, with others at midday and at evening, too, for that matter. And the lake is large enough for endless exploration.

Cut about Burlington find much more lake. Northern Vercampers, mont has dense forests and many high mountains, from which commanding views are obtained. They have long been objectives of the more strenuous-minded and now are being made much more accessible by the Green Mountain club, a recently organized State association with local branches throughout Vermont. Its purpose is to make the mountains, lakes and streams of Vermont better known and more easily reached by the public and to insure the conservation of the natural scenic of the State. resources, a young organization, the club has accomplished work which is well worth while and which is destined to be felt for many years.

In the matter of trail -building alone, a need of the first importance, the routes already laid out and those only partially completed will be kept open season after season by the mere tide of travel over them. The White Mountains and the Adirondacks have long had trails from one section to another, but the wilder and more rugged portions of the Green Mountains have heretofore been accessible only to expert woodsmen or those who could find guides in a region where fow have been obtainable. The work of the Green Mountain club now puts the attractions af the most remote spots within reach of the tyro in mountain climbing and wooderaft. In addition to trail-building, maps are to be printed and shelter houses constructed. NOW MOUNTAIN TRAILS.

Interest centers first about Mansfield, which rears its rugged profile more than 1,400 feet midway between the White Mountains and the Adirondacks. A wagon road from Stowe on the east leads to the Summit House, only a short climb from the Nose or the Chin, and for there has been 2 trail from the Underhill side on the west, but from other directions the mountain has always been very difficult of approach. A trail has now been nearly completed over Bolton Mountain to the south. It starts at the summit of Mansfield and runs through Nebraska Notch and up Bolton to near the top. There f1 short break occurs, but this section will 80011 be cut through to a point of union with a log road down the other side.

Another trail from the top of Mansfield to Smuggler's Notch on the north has been started and will soon be finished. These two trails are being cut and clearly marked by the Burlington section of the Green Mountain club. The Morrisville-Johnson section is making a trail over Sterling Mountain. It runs by way of Sterling Pond to Smuggler's Notch, and thence to Mansfield. The Eurlington section is supplementing its trail-making about Mansfield with careful map of the mountain and its approaches.

A professor and a few students of tre University of Vermont camped soveral days on the mountain the latter part of May for this purpose, and mado accurate surveys of the trails and nent landmarks. It 18 planned to publish this map in the near future. A new shelter is to be built at what has been known AL.M the half-way house, on the trail from Underhill, HO that parties 'rom that side of the mountein who arrive by motor or late afternoon train from Burlington may have comfortable camping place, The house will be designed for winter ILA well 08 summer use, 08 winter climbing trips have become popular during the last few vours. From the nose of Mansfield one of the most wonderful views in all New 1Cngland rewards the climber. A concrete pier has been erected thereon, with a copper dial on the top.

The radiant lines of the dial point in every direction of the com. a a PRESS AND TIMES: THURSDAY, pass to plensure grounds that are bywords in the mouths of vacationists. The White Mountains are clearly visible, and the separate peaks are indicated on the dial. Southward in the Green Mountains is Camel's Hump, second highest in State, and beyond that the long. rugged backbone of Vermont.

Champlain spreads in a long glistening line on the west, and across it are the towering AdIrondacks, misty in the distance. Directly below. under the point of the Nose is the Summit House, and behind that the steep rise of the Chin. From the Chin Mt. Royal in Canada is plainly visible on clear days.

For the camper, the motorist by land or water, and the summer resident this region about Burlington is full of just such pleasant surprises, bits of scenery along the chore lino or over the top of the hill, which many have found and still others have in store.

Two Roads Urged to diet Together and Agree upon a Plas for Such Structure within the Next Three Weeks. Officials of both the Central Vermont Railway company and the Rutland Railroad service company commission before Tuesday the State afternoon, public admitted that Burlington was entitled to a new union station. In their formal answers made to the petition of Calvin S. Isham and others against the two railroad commission for companies, a new asking union the station. State it was admitted that the city needed a the new present station station and that were the inadequate.

facilities This at practically assures a new station for Burlington nearly completes the contest of local citizens in their fight for better local railroad accommodations. According to the agreement made Tuesday by the officials of both railroad companies, they will have until August 16 to get together and try to agree 011 some one plan for a new station. On this date the railroad representatives and people Interested in Burlington will again appear before he public service commi9sion. John W. chairman of the commission, declared that he hoped both companies would reach mutually satisfactory plan by that time.

At the opening of the hearing Attorney C. P. Cowles said the petitioners had recelved no answer from the railroads to the petition. C. W.

Witters, attorney for the Central Vermont railway, sold that his company had not prepared any answer for the reason that the plan prepared by the Rutland railrond hind been received by General Manager Fitzhugh but a few days ago. In an informal answer to the petition made by Burlington people he declared that the need of a new station in Burlington was realized by the company that he represented and added that he hoped the hearing would be continued so that the officials of both roads might agree on plans. He asked for an adjournment of one month, as did General Manager Fitzhugh. The adjournment WAS le to Cowles, Moulton Stearns, who represent the "We wish to be fair," said Mr. Cowles.

"Both railroads that new station is heve needed Curlington. It they had not would have been prepared to pr Mr. Cowies objected an of one month, however, as did Pt. I'rown. representing the Rutland nd.

The commission conciliated by appointing the adjourned hearing for August 16. Chairman Redmond declared that he would have preferred to rate the time longer except for interference that would be made by the opening of county court and by the injunction hearing on the municipal l'ght question. E. W. Lawrence, attorney for the Rutland railroad, said that the postponement suited him.

but added that he could not promise that the Rutland road would reach an agreement with the Central Vermont people. Chairman Redmond, of the commission, was somewhat insistent that the roads agree. "I fully realize," he said, "that the time set for the officials of the two roads to confer is short, and I should advise that the work be hurried as much 28 possible. If you, Mr. Fitzhugh, think that the Rutland people are lagging, write and tell them so.

And you. Mr. Jarvis, if you think that the work is being delayed by the Central Vermont people, why, try and hurry Mr. Fitzhugh." Mr. Redmond said also that the subject was an important one to Burlington and that he was pleased with the a progress that had been made toward new station.

lie also warned the railroad people of the fact that if no agreeA ment was reached by August 16 it would mean long and serious delay, and that such delay should be avoided. The array of legal talent present was large. The Central Vermont railway was represented by C. W. Witters of St.

Albans, H. H. Powers of Morrisville and H. S. Peck, and the Rutland railroad by E.

W. Lawrence of Rutland and R. E. Brown and E. C.

Mower. For the committee of fifteen appeared the law firm of Cowles, Moulton Stearns. General Manager E. H. Fitzhugh nad General Superintendent C.

E. Soule and C. P. Smith, a director, of the Central Vermont, and General Manager G. T.

Jarvis of the Putland railroad were also present. General Manager Fitzhugh in his plea for an adjournment hearing for to month, said that in his opinion his company, at least, should secure experts gO over the railroad terminals in Burbe lington with a view to establishing a site for a union station. By this method, he said, some better method than yet sugRested might be found. Following the adjournment of yesterday's hearing, the members of the committee of fifteen and other citizens who rave joined in the fight for a union station spent a few moments in extending congratulations to each other. The admissions of both railroad companies that a new station was needed they said meant a decided victory.

By GEORGE T. JARVIS. General Manager. WORLD'S BEST CIRCUS. Barnum Bailey Show Announced for an Early Engagement Here.

The Barnum Bailey greatest show or. earth is announced for two perform ances in Burlington on Friday, August 11. The day is awaited with great interest. A new brilliant street parade, it new menagerie and a large company of European artists are promised. This circus has stood at the head of the amusement business for more than 50 years.

The policy of P. T. Barnum and James A. Bailey is still active in its anagement. These are the two greatest names in the history of circus affairs.

Their show is the source of perfect satisfaction. It is recognized in every country on earth as the leading spirit among amusement enterprises. It has traveled in every country where the sun shines. It has entertained millions upon millions of the earth's peoples. Its world -wide tours have given it many advantages over other tented shows.

They have kept It in constant touch with remote corners of the globe whence come all wonders. Nearly all great arenic novelties originate in Europe or Asia. No sooner have they been exploited in foreign audience rooms than they are secured by Barnum Bailey's agents. Invariably novelties are introduced to America by this circus. When they cease to be novelties they are passed down to other shows and another budget of imported wonders takes their places.

This year's program is particulurly abundant. It is a purely foreign bill. Over 100 startling acts are presented by 400 of the leading artists of the world. The show employs 1,280 people. It has 700 horses.

In its menagerte are 102 cages, pens, tanks and dens in which are displayed 1,200 wild and semi-domestie animals. Among them are 40 elephants and 30 camels. There are giraffes. One of them is a year-old baby, the first one ever born or exhibited in this country. The main performance is given in three rings, on two stages, on an immense hippodrome track and dome 400 feet long.

Among the big acts are those of the balloon horse, a company of cream stallions that play on Swiss bells, a brass land of elephants, a company of equestrian seals and a wonderfully humanchimpanzee, Charlie the First, who performs on one of the stages. He 1s the greatest bicycle rider and juggler on earth. These acts reach the utter extreme of sensationalism. There are any r.umber of thrillers the program sparkles with the wit and humor of the DU funniest clowns on earth. The circus has a newly built equipment.

It was devised and executed in the foreign workshops of the show in Five long railroad trains are haul it from city to city. In all there are 85 cars. The new outfit cost the management $3,500,000. With all these added improvements, the Barnum Pailey show now stands at the zenith of glory. Never before In Its history of splendid achievements has it been so nttractive as now.

It opened Its spring engagement in Madison Square Garden, New York city, before the most distinguished audlence that ever assembled in a circus arena. It made the biggest hit in all its career. RAILROAD WANTS LAND. Sequestration Proccedings Begun to Secure Property on Two Streets. Property located on the north side of Stain street, below Battery street, and on the west side of Pattery street, between Main and College streets, and owned by John E.

Lavell, the Denning, Richards and Beatty estates, is on ground that the Rutland Railroad company wishes to use for terminal improvements. To accomplish this purpose it has brought sequestration proceedings before the State publie service commission, a hearing having been set for August 16. Attorneys said Tuesday that the sale of the property of the Shepard Morse Lumber company, extending from to College streote, east of the Rutland train line track, had been practically closed. The estates it mentioned, before however, work must be securod, is sald, of making such Improvements or work on erecting A new union station, can be commenced. On the northwest corner of Main and Battery streets la located the old Richands boathouse, owned by the Richards estate, This building is a sort of a landmark, Dtrectly below it on Main street ere two small land plots owned by the beatty estate and by Mr.

Lavell. A small brick house, located an the south side of Battery street. between Main and Collage streets, owned by the Denning FLETCHER HOSPITAL ROBBED Employe Who Is Suspected Took $300 and Skipped. Left behind Him Two Trunks and Suit Cane Containing Goods Stolen Not Long Ago from a Montreal Residence. Ag a climax to a number of smaller thefts at the institution, the safe at the Mary Fletcher hospital was broken Into either Friday night or Saturday morning and nearly $300 in cash taken by one of the employes, who 15 thought to havo disappeared from this part of the country.

The affair was kept secret until Tuesday. Incidentally, baggage left behind discloses a still larger robbery in the vincinity of Montreal, when the residence of J. W. Darcy was robbed of goods valued in the vicinity of 31,500. The man who is suspected entered the employ of the hospital about month ago, giving his name as Henry Dion, and proved good help A few small thefts were committed during this time, but that has occurred for the past few years from time to time, and It did not occur to anyone that he might be connected v.

1th them. When he arrived the hospital, he had with him, two trunks and a suit case, which ho said contained tho effects of his mother who was dead, and these were stored away for him. When the police were notified of the robbery and. found that Dion had left, these trunks were opened and were found to contain goods of almost every description, from a mission clock to eider down pun's, and large quantity of men's ciothing. disproving the story that the goods belonged to a woman.

All of the goods were of an expensive pattern and in the clothes was found the name of the owner. J. W. Darcy. The police had already received doscriptive circular from the Montreal police giving an account of the robbery of the Darcy reuldence, and upon comparing tho list with the goo.is 111 the trunk found them to be identical with the exception that many articles were losing.

Montreal was then notified and Mr. Dares will be here to-day to claim the goods. The lat of articles stolen consists of ntarly everything that 14 movable in 0 Louse. There are a quantity of furs, seven pairs of trousers, four gulls cf clothes, a quantity of baby's clothing. silverware, cut glass, bed linen, scarfs and in fact goods of every description.

In Montreal, Dion, who was known there ag Valiquette, was employed Darcy a8 a coachman, and thus ganed access to the house in the absence of tho family and took the goods. These wero traced as far as the Grand Trunk station, but here all track was lost of them. Albert Valiquette is believed to be the thief's right name and he is a native of Springfeld, Mass. He is pale-faced, has deep sunken eves and is a user of morphine or cocaine. His age 1s about 19 years and he is five feet six inches in height.

It is thought that when he disappeared he wore a greenish suit of clothes, but this is too uncertain to count for much in the way of identification. He has very long fingers and is smooth shaven. No clue to his manner of escape or to where he has gone has yet been discovered. It is known that he has served sentences for similar crimes in the past. Just what stock of clothing or what is missing from the Darcy goods is not krown.

CAROLINE WINS RECIPROCITY. Halifax. N. July buffeted by a severe storm that broke off the Nova Scotia coast last night, the powerboat Caroline, owned by M. F.

Dennis and the favorite in the reciprocity motorboat race from New York to Halifax, crossed the finish line off the Royal Nova Scotia club pier at 1:30 a. m. today, apparently the winner of the contest. REPUTATION ARNOLD'SM BALSA warranted ALL SICKNESSES BY J. W.
