My Vacation.

At last I have found a place of rest; cool.
quiet, quaint old Gullford. typlcid village
of the land of "steady habits." How easy
here to forget the cares and worries of every-
day business and give onessclf up wholly
ti the sweets of idleness! This delicious
August air with I faint subtle suggestion of
the ssltsea in it.-—thc prim old-fashioned
houses with their close shut blinds—the
famed “green" upon whose beautiful vcr-
dure I f-ttst my eyes as I write.--all these
conspire to render Gutlford one of the most
restful summering places it has ever been
my good fortune to light upon. The luv
dians called it Menunkatuck. I have dubbed
it “Sleepy Hollow." from the extraordinary
facility with which sleep is induced at all
times and places. In fact. sleeping and do-
ing nothing are my two principal occupa-
tions. I am finding out by experience that
there is nothing like knowing how to enjoy a
holiday. and the secret is to banish every-
thing that has ever the appearance of work.
especially our monotonous [everyday work.
I have spent this entire morning in the kind
of idling that refreshes both body and spirit;

For the Souru Nuttwkrat Sunrises. :—
Rewds Plans For rm.

That this is a world of change no one will
deny if he will stop for a moment and look
buck upon the past. We change in our
mode of diets. mule of living and in almost
everything else. So in our ntodu of recrea-
tion there has been a most wonderful change.
Not many years ago it ‘ was a thirst: almost
unheard of for a family to go off to spend a
few wet ks or months at some summer re-
sort. in fart summer resorts were almost titt-
heard of.bui)ttow how is it! most everybody
expects to go some where to while away a
few days, at least. as a vacation. in the sutu-
mcr. -

I have for many years felt as if the than
would come when me and my family could
shake. otl'dullcare and go away and enjoy
ourselves with others. in some ct'zv rt-lrt‘nt
This summer we thought we should certain-
ly get off. but we have been unable to agree
upon the place. My wife was determined
to go to New Faitacld and I was bound to
v0 to Pound Ridge. So we lutvu staid at
home. ta‘kiug the matter up and di~cunslng
it in all its bearings. until one day last week
my wife heard some of tho noibhbors telling
wonderful stories about a now fruit they
had found on Long Island culled beach
plums. IIer curiosity was very iliiif li tX‘
cited and site wislit‘d me to find out if pos-
sible all about them. Very fortunately I
soon found the very men (Bennett & Nash)
that. could tell me all :ubout them. They
both stated they had gathered them for years.
in fact they had become a staple nrtlclo in
their families. Mr. Bennett was all aglow
with a kind of plum fever. and he sentsuch
a thrill of enthusiasm into too I could hard-
ly wait to get home to till my wife about it.
and. when I told her that. a party consisting
of the best plumlsts in the place was about
to go for a load. and that I had an invitation.
her joy and lbttt of the whole family was
complete. The next. Thursday we had ap-
pointed as the day to make the first trip.
My friend the dry goods man assured me
that they would be in just the right con-
ditionjust fat and juicy. The old controversy
about over summer recreation died at once.
and the whole family were happy in the
thought that we should all have our fill of
the beautiful fruit. Time passed slowly.
minutes seemed hours. and hours days on
til Thursday came. but come it did us time
is sure to fullflll its mission. At 9 o‘clock
everything was ready. There lay the bean-
tiful fast sailing yacht “Prairie Bird." Capt.
Julia ll. Ferris. commander. which was to
bear a precious burden to the land of fruit.
The party consisted of the following gen.
"albums—Dudley P. Ely. S. F. Peck. J. It.
Raymond. Capt. Boursc. C. E. Duty. Ii. ll.
Bartlett. C. E. Bennt'tt. R. II. Itowsu.Williu
Bigelow. Howard Knapp. L. lilgelow. Mr.
Beace. We bad a most delightful S‘iil across
the sound to Huntington Bay. the wind and
tide both being in our favor. and we outdo
the quickest passage on record. but after we
passed Ertiou‘s light the wind died out. and
it seemed to be up hill all the way. but I
think that the plcnsautcst part of the jour‘
ney. C. E. Bennett and J. 1i. Raymond
were well acquainted with the locality. and
it tvns very interesting indeed to hour them
tell of scenes and incidents thut had occurv
red there in times past. Mr. Bennett point-
ed out to us the mngttlficant rtlslenco of
Dr. Rycsnndcr. which stands on the bluff.
some hnlf mile from the shore. This got»
tlsmvtn owns an extensive estate. reaching
from Huntington to Babylon. At low water
it ccrttinly is an estate is man might covet.
liis hut houses are down on the shore. As we
passed it seemed to be covered with boards.
I was told it was necessary in this extreme
hot weather as the glass expands so much it
would burst the ends out. It is some five
hundred feet long. A short distance from
that there is an extensive sand fort. Mr.
Ely informed me that it was throwod tip by
the British in 1773. I presume he is correct
about it. but if it is so they must have beat
our ltnllsns two to one in throwing sand.
for there is an everlasting heap of it.

After leaving the sand fort it is down hill
all iliu way until you reach plum beach.and
the scenery is just magnificent. To the
right of us all the way down. sft' r leaving
Dr. llyesander's hot house. the hills seem
to have climbed stop of one another. until
the last one dropped off into Bahylon.
Northport is nestled in among the hills hero
and just beyond is the beautiful little village
of Honey Pot. This is the last one of the
succession of I tier of villages stretching
from Brooklyn to Plum Town. Commo-
dore Ferris gave orders to throw the anchor
at just half~pIst one. and in less than five
minutes alter we heard the anohnrstrike we
were all (with the exception of Bartlett who
was left aboard to protect our provisions).
Busy in filling our baskets with plums. I
must any right here that I was somewhat
disappointed in the looks of them. for I
had. from listening to Bennett. come to the
oinciusion that they were full as large an
butternut. but the bushes before me had a
fruit on about as large as theersmbsrry. It
struck me by testing one I could easily do-
cide the matter and so I did. but there was
not. a particle of plum taste, it was so accrld

me a bite of our dried herring to take the
taste fromvtny mouth.

I soon found that that was the only fruit
on the Island. and they must be plums. and
as they were very plenty it did not take but
