UNITED STATES HOTEL,


SARATOGA SPRINGS, August II, 1915.
Fdshionabies and Preienders at Sdratoga-IVhy are

ons Nranger-1rTipais-.S Schenectady and Troy


Railroad,


We had another hop last night, in the grand sa-
loon OF this house, which was well attended The
fashionables are just beginning enjoy themselves
they have awoke at last, from their torpid frozen
state-lan aside their dignified, reserved and rd-
culous AIRS, and now cry nothing but vive la baga-
telte! The pTrenues, however, still hold up their
heads-look ugnacious-rattle their gold-make
impudent speeches-talk very loud-affect a distrau
sort OF air, and look with contempt on all who have
not as much brass in their faces, or gold in their
pockets, as themselves. AS we have before repeat
edly remarked, we certainly have very funny set
here and as soon you thank heaven certain dsa-
greeable person or cotere gone away you are met
by more OF the same sort who haveu arrived enter
ing the door. There are two rather curious things
which must strike the eye of an observing man in
Saratoga Firstly you are looked at gazed at, stared
at more than you ever were before in all your life
but then you IN turn catch the infection and practice
II as much as those around you. Every new conner
is carefully nspected-he expression of his face, the
cut OF his they even look into his hat to see il
1t was made by whom. Now what does





more than natural" Our own idea is, that the
strange mixture-and singular compound-the mot
ly crowd here assembled, has rendered the adoption
OF some such practice absolutely necessary. 1t is
well known doctrine ithatk"like seeks like" The
true gentleman, therefore, scans the faces of new
corners, IN order to Judge whether it would be suia-
Bile TO make their acquaintance-and the lrotiuIer
does the same tor the purpose of knowing where to
seekf tor sympathy Secondyyou will find an absence
OF dress"-an abandon Of manner among our
fashlonabes. The gentlemen come to breakfast and
dlnner-enter the parors and promenade the paZza's
IN sack"s coats, badly cut pantaloons, and
in morning gowns, and most charmingly captivating
they look. 1t only at balls hops, and occasionally
ON the oess ay
ther woe unto the Parsian mliners, anu
tailors.


There is very mysterious stranger among u.s. with
foreign air who sports moustache Ia Henri Quatre,
and excites much attention. Rumor, that faulty old
lady, with her thousand tongues, sets him down as
foreign Count incog Having embraced the cause of the
injured Poles is said his estates conscated and
he was forced to yeaving his wife and family to the
merciless protection of his enemies. And here he is
seeking the Lehean waters for troubled mind in the
bubblng fountains of Saratoga Among the arrivals at
1n'S Vdrar ths %s may 3 the name;
Mr.. and Mrs. Gibson La; John B. Lamar, Macon, Ca .
Rev. Dr.. Gindrat, Ala; Mr.. and Mrs. Walker SC;
Horn, ESQ., and two lovely daughters, New York; DR..
Mcknight, lady, and son, do.


Much has existed here for the last few days.
arising from the fact of the suspension of the hapast
eleven o'clock train of railroad cars for schenectady and
Albany. This train being expressly for the benefit of
passengers destined for the East and West Those for
the Vest leaving the at Schenectady where they
met with the one o'clock train from Albanyand those
for Boston having connected with the Eastern train
Albany without detention Passengers for the West are
now compelled to rise at five O'Clock in the morning and
take the six o'clock cars for the evening
train and ride all night Those for the East must leave
here in the early morning an and be detained at Troy
until after dinner 1t would appear that this abuse has
been brought about by the Trojans" in order to ad
vance their own interests at the expense and nconven
ence of the visitors at the Springs.


Within few days past the annual election for Direc
tors VI the Schenectady Railroad Company has taken
place, and by some management majority Of directors
favorable to these views have been elected, whose frat
act has been to suspend the favorte line Of the travelling
public 1t notorious that the road between hore and
Troy is unsafe many accidents have occurred the lives
Of passengers have been jeopardzed by the snake
heads' spreading and rising of the track. Notwithsand
ing the many accidents there seems to be desire to
the fashionable community to go to Troy for the
purpose of gratifying idle curiosity and for the bene
fit of hotel keepers who wish TO get dinner out Of
them Within the last three weeks snake head" is
said to have passed horizontally through the long
cars, but it fortunately entered the door and passed
through the centre A few days afterwards man had
his leg, and another his arm, broken.
